Here my batch of draft "trefoil knot" designs. (Drafts -- meaning not necessarily ready for use, as all previous batches too)
Great stuff Thomas. Treefoil_know_3TM looks gorgeous and 1TM looks good as well. 2TM is also to consider. Probably you and E. would have to work out the colors, but to me it looks a nice candidate.
I've been casually following this thread, so I prefix this comment with "if a comment from me isn't really isn't welcome, that's OK".
The thing that comes to mind for me, if I want to combine some idea of "three" with the idea of a gear is the rotor of a Wankel engine. Those of you who don't know what this looks like might want to do a search on "Wankel rotor", and see images like the one in http://www.brandsoftheworld.com/logo/mazda-wankel-rotary
One might want to stylize this a bit by simplifying it and putting a T in the middle.
The minor detail of whether we do this at all aside, wow!! The best idea so far.

Further, for those who are troubled about religious connections, to the best of my knowledge there is no religion which worships Wankel engines ;-)
And if someone is worried about copyright/patent issues, the similar Reuleaux triangle (still with a gear inside) might look as good.
Cheers. Jim
