How Many Do You Know About The Basic Terminology Of Gears?

Gears have a lot of unique terms and expressions of gears. In order to enable everyone to understand gears more, here are some basic gear terms that are often used.

gear terms

The name of each part of the gear

Nodal surface

The curved surface of an imaginary rolling cylinder (cone, etc.) used to replace gears.

Pitch circle

The right section of the nodal surface.

Addendum circle

The circle formed by the tooth tip connection in the right section of the gear.

Tooth root circle

The circle formed by the connection of the tooth roots in the right section of the gear.

Tooth top height

The meridional distance between the index circle and the addendum circle.

Tooth root height

The meridional distance between the index circle and the tooth root circle.

Tooth tip clearance

The difference between the tooth root height of a gear and the tooth tip height of the meshing gear.

Tooth surface

The tooth surface is located outside the pitch surface.

Tooth belly

The part of the tooth surface located within the pitch surface.

Arc tooth thickness <or tooth thickness>

The thickness of the tooth measured on the index circle. It is the length of the arc, not the length of the straight line.

Cogging

The distance between adjacent teeth measured on the index circle.

Backlash

The gap between the tooth thickness of a gear and the tooth space of the meshing gear

Pitch P

The width of the teeth and grooves measured on the index circle.

Module m

The pitch diameter is divided by the number of teeth. The pitch diameter is usually specified in inches or millimeters. If it is inches, the modulus is the reciprocal of the pitch diameter.

Tooth root fillet

The small radius that connects the profile of the tooth and the root circle.

gear

Engage the smaller gear among the gears. The larger ones are simply referred to as gears.

Speed ​​ratio

The ratio of the number of rotations of the driving gear (or input) to the driven gear (output), in units of time.

Node

The tangent point of the pitch circle of the meshing gear pair.

Common tangent

A straight line tangent to the pitch circle at the node.

Line of action

The normal line of the meshing gear pair profile at its contact point.

Trajectory of contact point

The trajectory of the contact point of the gear pair profile.

Pressure angle

The angle between the common normal of the gear contact point and the common tangent of the index circle is also the angle between the trajectory of the contact point and the common tangent.

Base circle

It is used to expand the gear to generate the imaginary circle of the tooth profile involute.

What Is A Servo Motor?How Does A Servo Motor Work?

图片
What is a servo motor? The servo motor can also be called an executive motor, which is an executive component in an automatic control system. Its job is to convert the received electrical signal into an angular velocity output or an angular displacement output on the motor shaft. Servo motor classification There are two classifications of DC servo motor and AC servo motor. The main feature is that there is no rotation when the signal voltage is zero; the speed will drop at a uniform speed as the torque increases. DC servo motors are ideal for small applications, but they cannot handle large current surges. However, AC servo motors can cope with higher current surges and are widely used in industrial machinery. When it comes to price, DC motors are cheaper than AC servos, so they are used more. In addition, DC motors are specifically designed for continuous rotation, which makes them ideal for robot motion. How does a servo motor work? The working principle of the servo motor is relativ...

What Is A Gear Reducer?

图片
Gear reducer is an important machine in the industrial control field. It is generally used for low-speed and high-torque transmission equipment. It is a power transmission mechanism that uses a gear speed converter to reduce the number of revolutions of the motor to the desired number of revolutions, and obtain a larger number of revolutions torque mechanism. The gear reducer plays the role of matching the speed and transmitting torque between the prime mover and the working machine or the actuator. It is a relatively precise machine that passes the electric motor, internal combustion engine or other high-speed running power through the reducer. The number of teeth on the input shaft is small. The gear meshes with the large gear on the output shaft to achieve the purpose of deceleration. Types of gear reducers According to the transmission type, they can be divided into gear reducers, worm reducers and planetary gear reducers According to the number of transmission stages, they can be ...

What Should I Do If The Price Of The Reducer Supplier Is High?

图片
In order to get the most favorable price from the speed reducer supplier ,we must have good negotiation skills when buying reducer products . 1. Self-analysis of reducer purchasers Before negotiating with speed reducer suppliers, you must make full preparations. Reducer purchasers must be aware of their speed reducer purchase requirements, such as reducer model, reducer quantity, reducer quality, gear reducer delivery cycle, and service in place. At the same time, conduct an in-depth analysis of your company and grasp your own strengths and weaknesses. For example, how much benefit can the company provide to reducer suppliers? Will these benefits last forever? Are they attractive enough for reducer suppliers? Or what shortcomings you have are easy to be grasped by the reducer supplier, how to better avoid these shortcomings in the negotiation. 2. Market analysis of speed reducer Obtain the reducer market supply information from multiple reducer suppliers, the highest and lowest prices ...
