Toothed Gearing
Toothed Gearing
Advantages and Disadvantages of Gear Drive
Advantages
1. It transmits exact velocity ratio.
2. It may be used to transmit large power.
3. It has high efficiency.
4. It has reliable service.
5. It has compact layout.
Disadvantages
1. The manufacture of gears require special tools and equipment.
2. The error in cutting teeth may cause vibrations and noise during
operation.
Classification of Toothed Wheels
1. According to the position of axes of the shafts.
(a) Parallel, (b) Intersecting, and (c) Non-intersecting and non-
parallel.
2. According to the peripheral velocity of the gears.
(a) Low velocity, (b) Medium velocity, and
(c) High velocity.
The gears having velocity less than 3 m/s are termed as
low velocity gears and gears having
velocity between 3 and 15 m/s are known as medium
velocity gears. If the velocity of gears is more
than 15 m/s, then these are called high speed gears.
3. According to the type of gearing.
(a) External gearing, (b) Internal gearing, and
(c) Rack and pinion.
4. According to position of teeth on the gear surface
(a) straight, (b) inclined, and (c) curved.
Terms Used in Gears
Circular pitch, pc = π D/T
where
D = Diameter of the pitch circle, and
T = Number of teeth on the wheel.
Module.
It is the ratio of the pitch circle diameter in
millimeters to the number of teeth.
Dive into the world of toothed gearing with this detailed exploration of gear mechanisms. Learn about different types of gears, their applications, and how they work together to transmit motion efficiently and effectively. Discover the importance of tooth profiles, gear ratios, and gear trains in various industries such as automotive, manufacturing, and robotics. Gain a deeper understanding of the fundamental principles behind toothed gearing and its vital role in machinery and equipment.
