When changing rear end gear ratios, or tire sizes on a vehicle, you can buy different speedometer gears with tooth counts to restore speedometer accuracy. The worm(driver) is inside the transmission and is not changed. It is a 7 or 8 tooth in my application. The speedometer gear(driven) is...
Hello fellow PF members,
This is my first post.
I am wondering if there is a mechanism that alters the gear ratio in worm gear-worm wheel setup.. Something like a variable pitch worm gear that can be used instantaneously to alter the gear ratios.
If not for worm gear, is there anything in...
Dear Sir,
I am trying to understand that whether a Pump who is flowing a High Temperature Fluid (Therminol) will be feasible with a Gear Box. The Gear Box will be used to increase the pump speed from 3000 rpm to 3600 rpm.
The reason behind increasing the speed is high Pump TDH and as per...
Hi guys,
I have 2 mini motors and a set of worm gear.
I would like to know how to build a system that can make use of the torque from both motors at the same time so that I can double the torque without losing speed.
thank you
Hi,
If I put an 8 tooth on axle A and meshed a 12 tooth on axle B then I put a 16 tooth on axle A and meshed a 20 tooth on axle B but the 16 and 20 have the equivalent angular velocity/tooth profile will it rotate properly or will it jam due to the two gear sets going at different speeds...

Hi,

I have three sizes of gears with 14, 34, and 84 teeth respectively.
I need an exact 1:60 gear ratio.
The problem I am finding is that 14:34 and 34:84 are very close to the same value.
14 and 84 is 1:6, but without a 1:10, that doesn't get me far.
The closest I can get is 7:612...

I would think that doesn't matter how many teeths are in contact, since the force between gears are distributed on each pair of teeth in contact, more engaging teeth just mean the friction is distributed to...

In this example I've designed a mechanism in which a gear is exposed to a linear and planar motion on a rack, on the top plane in the x and z coordinates. One degree of freedom has been eliminated, disabling it from moving in the y coordinates. Consider that the gears are masless.
This is a...
In the image showed in the link below I've illustrated a mechanism in which a small gear rotates about a large gear when the motor is spinning. The large gear is rigid and both of the gears are masless, except for the motor. The small gear has a radius of 25mm and the large gear has a radius of...
