HW 1 Problem 1
A 17-tooth spur pinion paired with a 50 tooth gear has a diametral pitch of 2 teeth/in and a 20o pressure angle. Make a drawing of the gears showing one tooth on each gear (you may use a CAD program or other techniques as appropriate, you may choose a scale for your drawing as appropriate). Estimate the contact ratio.
Among other things, it is necessary that you be able to actually draw the teeth on a pair of meshing gears. You should understand, however, that you are not doing this for manufacturing or shop purposes. Rather, we make drawings of gear teeth to obtain an understanding of the problems involved in meshing of the mating teeth. -Shigley and Mischke
Involute Profile
How it is constructed
Demo
Properties
Conjugate action Allows design of whole sets of compatible gears Conjugate action not sensitive to center distance variations
Concept Question
Are the teeth on a matching rack and pinion set the same shape?

Pressure Line
Where the teeth contact, the surface normal defines a pressure line The force transmitted acts along this line The pressure line always includes the point of tangency between the pitch circles With the involute gear profile, the pressure line is constant

Pressure Angle
The pressure line acts at some angle to the tangent of the pitch circles This angle can be chosen by the designer It affects

Gear Terminology
Line of action & pressure line & generating line are all synonymous

Concept Question
A pair of gears are mated. One is driven at a set torque, the other is regulated at a set speed. The gears are the ones circled. What is the ratio of the separation forces and the total force on the bearing?

Discussion Questions
Are there any disadvantage to a helical gear as compared to a spur gear? How can the disadvantages be remedied? Is a helical gear set stronger than a spur gear of the same diameter, pitch, face width, & material?

Discussion Question
State a relationship one would normally apply in choosing radii for gears 3, 4, and 5

Manual Transmissions
If you find just two axles in a machine, does that mean there are just two stages?
Discussion Questions
How many stages in this device? How do you suppose this number is chosen? Are the reduction ratios typically all nearly the same in all successive stages?

Differentials
Allows shafts to move at different speeds Applies same torque to both Slippage problem What can be done?
