The manifold mandibular movements of oral aperture can be modelled by movements of couples in neuromuscular gear systems. These systems consist of the dimeric link chain of the neuromuscular hinge axis (rocking arm) and a neuromuscularly enforced cyclic trajectory of a well-defined point of the mandible. The neuromuscular hinge axis is the common constant of all gear systems whereas the position of the cyclic trajectory at the fixed plane (maxilla) is closely related to the specific path of the entire rigid body mandible. The presented theory is inferred by measurements of the mandible's movement that take all six degrees of freedom into account.
口腔开口时下颌的多种运动可以通过神经肌肉齿轮系统中力偶的运动来模拟。这些系统由神经肌肉铰链轴（摇臂）的二聚体链和下颌特定点的神经肌肉强制循环轨迹组成。神经肌肉铰链轴是所有齿轮系统的共同常数，而循环轨迹在固定平面（上颌骨）上的位置与整个刚体下颌骨的特定路径密切相关。所提出的理论是通过考虑下颌所有六个自由度的运动测量得出的。
