It consists of a grooved wheel, often made of metal, that is free to move along its axis but which cannot slip off the shaft which it fits over. The term comes from the Latin "sheave-" or "skevis", meaning a wooden shaft. The first use of sheaves was in Archimedes' screw pump, when they were used to reduce the force needed to raise water.

A sheave is a pulley or wheel that can be moved closer or further from an axle or spindle, depending on how much resistance there is to turning it. In this case, it controls resistance on the airflow side of the system and works with the compressor and fan motor to circulate air throughout your home. The digital thermostat turns on the compressor and fan when necessary.
