3. 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

4. ANIMATION

5. TYPES OF GEARS 1. According to the position of axes of the shafts.
Parallel
1.Spur Gear
2.Helical Gear
3.Rack and Pinion
b. Intersecting
Bevel Gear
c. Non-intersecting and Non-parallel
worm and worm gears

6. SPUR GEAR Teeth is parallel to axis of rotation
Transmit power from one shaft to another parallel shaft
Used in Electric screwdriver, oscillating sprinkler, windup alarm clock, washing machine and clothes dryer

7. External and Internal spur Gear…

8. 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

9. Helical Gear…

10. Herringbone gears
To avoid axial thrust, two helical gears of opposite hand can be mounted side by side, to cancel resulting thrust forces
Herringbone gears are mostly used on heavy machinery.

11. Rack and 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

12. Bevel gears
Bevel gears are useful when the direction of a shaft's 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
locomotives, marine applications, automobiles, printing presses, cooling towers, power plants, steel plants, railway track inspection machines, etc.

13. Straight and Spiral Bevel Gears

14. WORM AND 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

16. NOMENCLATURE OF SPUR GEARS

17. 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.

18. LAW OF GEARING
FIG.
CONDITION:-

19. LAW OF GEARING
“When two parallel shafts are connected to each other by a pair of toothed wheels (gears), the number of teeth from each gear passing through the engagement zone in a given period of time is equal. If this number be N for a period of 1 second and the number of teeth on the two gears 1 an 2 be N1and N2, respectively, then gars 1 and 2 make (N / N1) and (N / N2) revolutions, respectively”

20. VELOCITY OF SLIDING The relative velocity of points A and B
along the common tangent is known as velocity of sliding. In other words, it represents the sliding velocity of the surface of rigid body 2 relative to the surface of rigid body 1 at the point of contact. Velocity of sliding:

21. CONT..

22. CONT..
velocity of sliding: vS= (ω1+ ω2 )AP The maximum velocity of sliding occurs at the first or last point of contact.

23. FORMS OF GEAR TEETH
When two gears teeth are in mesh, the profile of anyone tooth can be chosen of arbitrary shape and the profile for the other may be determined to satisfy the law of gearing. Such gear teeth are called conjugate teeth.
Although gears with conjugate teeth transmit the desire motion, they require special cutter which obviously increase the difficulty in manufacturing.

24. Cont..
Therefore, conjugate teeth are not in normal use. Usually, the following geometrical curves which satisfy the law of gearing.

25. INVOLUTE PROFILE

26. Cycloidal Profile:

27. PATH OF CONTACT

28. Cont. Path of approach. Path of recess.
A portion of path of contact from the beginning of engagement to pitch point. i.e., the length EP is path of approach.
Path of recess.
  The portion of path of contact from pitch point to the end of engagement ,i.e., the length PF, is called path of recess.
is called path of approach.

29. Cont.
FORMULA:-

30. ARC OF CONTACT
The arc of contact is the distance travelled by a point on either pitch circle of gear or a pinion during the period of contact of a pair of teeth.

31. ANIMATION:

32. CONT…
FORMULA-
path of contact
=arc of contact/cos α

33. INTERFERENCE

34. CONT..
When a pair of gear transmits power, the normal force is passed through common normal to the two involutes at the point of contact. which is also a tangent to the base circles of mating gear pair.

35. CONT
If, by any reason, any of the two surfaces is not involute, the two surfaces would not touch each other tangentially and transmission of power would not be proper. The mating of gear teeth will violate the fundamental law of gearing and this action is called interference

36. Minimum numbers of teeth

37. The involute profile doesn’t exist beyond base circle.
When the pinion rotates clockwise, first and last point of contacts are e and g where the line of action is tangent to the base circles.
Any part of the pinion tooth face extending beyond a circle through g interferes with gear flank as shown at i.
The interference limits the permissible length of addendum. As the diameter of the pinion is reduced, the permissible addendum of larger gear becomes smaller.
Let the addendum height be k times the module i.e., km. From the Fig.2.12 the maximum gear addendum circle radius is :
AE=r +km = √(AG +GE)

38. For a rack and pinion, z2 = ∞ and the equation reduces to
Z = 2k/(sinϕ)2
From the practical consideration it is observed that rack gear generation and hobbing process for lower value than the one given earlier, a little undercutting takes place and the strength of the gear is not affected.
Hence, corresponding minimum number of teeth are 27, 14 and 12 for 14.50°, 20°, and 22.50° instead of 32, 17 & 14.

39. UNDERCUTTING

40. CONT…
If the cutting rack having similar teeth is used to cut the teeth in the pinion, it will remove the portion of the pinion tooth which would have interfered with the gear as shown in figure.
A gear having its material removed in this manner is said to be undercut and the process, undercutting.
When the actual gear mashes with the undercut pinion, no interference occurs.
