Types and characteristics of gears

Author:


1. Types and characteristics of cylindrical gears

Straight cylindrical gears

1) The two axes of large and pinion are parallel to each other

2) When the external meshing transmission is made, the two gears rotate in opposite directions; When the internal meshing transmission is made, the two gears rotate in the same direction
  
3) The tooth shape can be made into normal teeth, short teeth, and can be displaced

4) The long direction line of the gear teeth is inclined to the gear axis at an angle

5) The meshing transmission is smoother than the straight tooth cylindrical gear transmission, and the transmitted force is larger

6) Make more straight cylindrical gears troublesome helical gears

Gears and racks

1) The gear meshing with the rack can be spur gear or helical gear, and has the characteristics of spur gear or helical gear

2) Rack and gear transmission is to change rotation into linear movement or movement into rotation

3) The rack is formed when the diameter of the gear is infinite

2. Types and characteristics of bevel gears

Straight bevel gear

1) The two axes of large and pinion intersect at the cone vertex

2) When the bevel angle of the large gear is equal to 90°, it becomes a planar gear; Above 90°, it becomes an internal bevel gear

Helical bevel gears


1) The tooth line is oblique, tangent to a certain circle, and the tooth line does not intersect with the cone top

2) The rotation angles of the big and pinions are equal and the direction is opposite

3) Stable transmission of straight bevel gear

Arc bevel gear

1) Stable transmission, large force transmission, suitable for off-speed transmission

2) The rotation angles of the big and pinions are equal and the direction is opposite

3) The axes of the two gears intersect at the vertices of the cone

4) Arc bevel gears are divided into circular arc teeth, extended cycloid teeth, and quasi-involute teeth

3. Types and characteristics of worms and worm gears

Archimedes worm

1) The tooth shape on the axial section of the worm is straight

2) Easy to manufacture

Linear worm

1) The tooth shape on the normal section of the worm moth spiral line is a straight line

2) It is the best one of the three types of ankles, the most common

Involute worm

The tooth shape on a plane parallel to the axis of the worm and tangent to the base cylinder is linear

Circular worm gear and worm gear

1) The efficiency is good, and the oil film is well formed

2) Large carrying capacity

3) Complex manufacturing and assembly

4) Also known as spherical worm gear pair

5) The tooth type is divided into: primitive type and modified plow. The purpose of the correction is to facilitate the formation of an oil film in the transmission of worm gears

Learn about gears in a minute

Gear refers to a mechanical element with gears on the wheel edge that continuously meshes to transmit motion and power. The application of gears in transmission has appeared very early. At the end of the 19th century, the principle of the tooth cutting method and the special machine tools and tools using this principle for tooth cutting appeared one after another, and with the development of production, the stability of gear operation was valued.

Function and important parameters of gears Explanation of important parameters of gears

Gears are used in a large number of mechanical equipment. They perform several important jobs, but most importantly, they provide gear reduction for motorized equipment. This is key, because as is often the case, small motors that rotate very quickly can provide enough power to the device, but not enough torque. The article mainly introduces the functions of gears and what are the important parameters.

From milling teeth to 3D printing, there are so many ways to manufacture gears!

If you are a mechanical enthusiast, then you must be full of curiosity and awe of the amazing mechanical element of gears. They act like the heart of a machine, transmitting power and movement between different axes to allow various machines to work properly. But you know what? Making a perfect gear is not an easy task, it needs to be coordinated and optimized by a variety of processes and technologies to achieve the desired effect.
