Problem

Find all \(n\) such that a closed system of \(n\) gears in a plane can rotate. We call a system closed if the first gear wheel is connected to the second and the \(n\)th, the second is connected to the first and the third, the third is connected to the second and the fourth, the fourth is connected to the third and the fifth, and so on until the \(n\)th is connected to the \(n-1\)th and the first. In the picture, we have a closed system of three gears.
