Addendums from the Whole Depth 11 RULE HELICAL GEARS TO FIND HELICAL GEARS 3-8 GEAROLOGY Now let’s look at three more important factors to keep in mind when selecting the “right” helical gears for your customers’ applications: ratio, rotation and thrust RATIO The ratio of a pair of helical gears may be determined from the shaft speed or the number of teeth in the two gears Ratio = RPM of Driving Gear ÷ RPM... http://www.bostgear.com/quiz to take the quiz GEAROLOGY 3 HELICAL GEARS HELICAL GEARS 3-1 GEAROLOGY COMMON APPLICATIONS: Helical gears are commonly used when efficiency and quieter N ow that you’ve been introduced to the most common gear – the spur gear – let us turn our attention to another commonly used gear, the helical gear Helical gears are similar to spur gears except that their teeth are cut at an angle to... are important Helical gears are used to connect non-intersecting shafts Boston standard helical gears with 45-degree helix angles (a term that will be discussed below) are used to connect parallel shafts or shafts at right (90º) angles CATALOG CHECK: Boston Gear makes a complete line of standard stock helical gears in both Helical gears are manufactured as both right and left-hand gears The teeth of a... Photo 3.1) bronze and steel All Boston Gear distributors should have them in stock Opposite hand helical gears run on parallel shafts Gears of the same hand operate with shafts of 90º (See Photo 3.1A) The complete line of → Boston Gear helical HELIX ANGLE → HELICAL GEARS 3-2 gears is featured in the Gears catalog Figure 3.0 Right Hand Helical Gear Left Hand Helical Gear Photo 3.1, The teeth of a RIGHT... let’s look closely at the most common of all gears – the spur gear The spur gear is the most basic mechanical power transmission product sold by Boston Gear In fact, there are applications COMMON APPLICATIONS: Spur gears are used to move virtually anything that can move, from mixers, blenders, copy machines, textile machinery and ice machines to the for these gears almost “every place a shaft turns” That’s... for our entire at speaking the language of “gearology.” line of stock spur gears are listed in BACKLASH is the distance (spacing) between two “mating” the Engineering gears measured at the back of the driver on the pitch circle Backlash, which is purposely built in, is very important because it helps prevent noise, abnormal wear and excessive section of your Boston Gear heat while providing space for . 1.27) MITER GEARS Miter gears are identical to bevel gears except that in a miter gear set, both gears always have the same number of teeth. Their ratio, therefore,. provide valuable information when quoting customer gearing. GEAROLOGY 2-3 SPUR GEARS CATALOG CHECK! The complete line of Boston Gear spur gears is featured in the Gears
