GEAR

• Power transmission is the movement of energy from


its place of generation to a location where it is
applied to performing useful work
• A gear is a component within a transmission device
that transmits rotational force to another gear or
device
TYPES OF GEARS
According to the position of axes of the shafts
 Parallel
 Spur Gear
 Helical Gear
 Rack and Pinion.
 Intersecting
 Bevel Gear
 Non-intersecting and Non-parallel
 worm and worm gears
SPUR GEAR

• Teeth is parallel to axis of rotation


• Transmit power from one shaft to
another parallel shaft
• Used in oscillating sprinkler
• windup alarm clock, washing machine and clothes
dryer
External and Internal spur Gear…
Helical Gear

• The teeth on helical gears are cut at an angle to the


face of the gear
• This gradual engagement makes helical gears operate
much more smoothly and quietly than spur gears
• One interesting thing about helical gears is that if the
angles of the gear teeth are correct, they can be
mounted on perpendicular shafts, adjusting the
rotation angle by 90 degrees
Helical Gear
Herringbone Gears

• To avoid axial thrust, two helical gears of opposite


hand can be mounted side by side, to cancel resulting
thrust forces

Rack & Pinion

• Rack and pinion gears are used to convert rotation


(From the pinion) into linear motion (of the rack)
• A perfect example of this is the steering system on
many cars
Bevel Gear

• Bevel gears are useful when the direction of a shafts


rotation needs to be changed
• They are usually mounted on shafts that are 90
degrees apart, but can be designed to work at other
angles as well
• The teeth on bevel gears can be straight, spiral or
hypoid
STRAIGHT & SPIRAL BEVEL GEAR
WORM GEAR

• Worm gears are used when large gear reductions are


needed. It is common for worm gears to have reductions
of 20:1, and even up to 300:1 or greater
• Many worm gears have an interesting property that no
other gear set has: the worm can easily turn the gear, but
the gear cannot turn the worm
• Worm gears are used widely in material handling and
transportation machinery, machine tools, automobiles
etc
Worm Gear & WORM Wheel
GEAR TRAIN

• A gear train is two or more gear working together by


meshing their teeth and turning each other in a
system to generate power and speed
• It reduces speed and increases torque
• Electric motors are used with the gear systems to
reduce the speed and increase the torque
TYPES OF GEAR TRAINS
• Simple gear train
• Compound gear train
• Planetary gear train
• Simple Gear Train
• The most common of the gear train is the gear pair connecting
parallel shafts. The teeth of this type can be spur, helical or
herringbone.
• Only one gear may rotate about a single axis
SIMPLE GEAR TRAIN
COMPOUND GEAR TRAIN

• For large velocities,compound


arrangement is preferred

• Two or more gears may rotate


about a single axis
NOMENCLATURE OF SPUR GEAR
NOMENCLATURE…
• Pitch surface: The surface of the imaginary rolling cylinder (cone, etc.) that
the toothed gear may be considered to replace.
• Pitch circle: A right section of the pitch surface.
• Addendum circle: A circle bounding the ends of the teeth, in a right section
of the gear.
• Root (or dedendum) circle: The circle bounding the spaces between the
teeth, in a right section of the gear.
• Addendum: The radial distance between the pitch circle and the addendum
circle.
• Dedendum: The radial distance between the pitch circle and the root circle.•
Clearance: The difference between the dedendum of one gear and the
addendum of the mating gear.
• Face of a tooth: That part of the tooth surface lying outside the pitch surface.
• Flank of a tooth: The part of the tooth surface lying inside the pitch surface.
• Circular thickness (also called the tooth thickness): The thickness of the
tooth measured on the pitch circle. It is the length of an arc and not the
length of a straight line.
• Tooth space: pitch diameter The distance between adjacent teeth measured
on the pitch circle.
• Backlash: The difference between the circle thickness of one gear and the
tooth space of the mating gear.
• Circular pitch (Pc) : The width of a tooth and a space, measured on the pitch
𝜋𝐷
circle. 𝑝𝑐 =
𝑁
NOMENCLATURE
• Diametral pitch (Pd): The number of teeth of a gear unit pitch
diameter. The diametric pitch is, by definition, the number of
teeth divided by the pitch diameter. That is,
Where, PD= diametral pitch 𝑝𝑑 = 𝑁Τ𝐷
N = number of teeth
D = pitch diameter
• Module (m): Pitch diameter divided by number of teeth. The
pitch diameter is usually specified in inches or millimeters; in
the former case the module is the inverse of diametral pitch.
m=D/N
VELO. RATIO OF GEAR DRIVE

• d = Diameter of the wheel


• N =Speed of the wheel
• ω = Angular speed

𝑤2 𝑁2 𝑑1
• VELOCITY RATIO(n)= = =
𝑤1 𝑁1 ⅆ2
Planetary Gear Train (Epicyclic Gear Train)
Planetary Gear Train
• In this train, the blue gear has six times the diameter of the
yellow gear
• The size of the red gear is not important because it is just
there to reverse the direction of rotation
• In this gear system, the yellow gear (the sun) engages all three
red gears (the planets) simultaneously
• All three are attached to a plate (the planet carrier), and they
engage the inside of the blue gear (the ring) instead of the
outside.
• They have higher gear ratios.
