Gears Gears, defined as toothed members transmitting rotary motion from one shaft to another, are among the oldest devices and inventions of man. A gear is a wheel with teeth along its rim. It is used to transmit effort from one shaft to another。 Terms of Spur Gearset The pinion and gear are regarded as two cylinders that are pressed against one another and smoothly roll together.

rotation, the direction of rotation, and the amount of torque. Planetary Geartrains Planetary geartrains: the centers of certain gears move. And their motion is similar in some respects to the orbit of a planet around a star. The planet gear rotates about its own center, meshes with the sun gear, and orbits as a whole about the center of the sun gear. The link that connects the centers of the two gears is called the carrier. It can rotate as well about one of its ends When multiple planet gears are present to reduce noise, vibration and force, the carrier is sometimes called the spider. Bevel gea The teeth shape of bevel gear are like ordinary spur gears, but the tooth surfaces are made up of conical elements Helical gear The teeth of helical gears are still formed on a cylinder. However the teeth are not parallel to the gear's shaft Instead, the teeth on a helical gear are inclined at an angle so that each tooth wraps on the gear's cylinder in the shape of a shallow helix. Property of Helical Gear As helical gears rotate, each tooth comes first into engagement on one side, with contact spreading across the tooth as rotation continues Transmit motion between parallel shafts.
