Expt. No.01 STUDY OF GEARS
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
Aim:
To study the various types of gears and its parameter
Apparatus required:
Arrangement of gear system
Introduction:
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
Gears are used to transmit motion from one shaft to another or between a shaft. This is accomplished by successful engaging of tooth. Gears are intermediate links or connections and transmit the motion by direct contact. In this method the surface of two bodies have either a rolling or sliding motion along the tangent at the point of contact to transmit the definite motion of one disc to another or to prevent slip between the surface projection and recession on two discs can be made which can mesh with each other. The discs with teeth are known as gears or gear wheel.
Classification of gear:
The different kinds of gears are:
- Based on the peripheral velocity of gears
- Low velocity gears - Gears with peripheral velocity < 3 m/s
- Medium velocity gears – Gears with peripheral velocity = 3-15 m/s
- High velocity gears – Gears with peripheral velocity > 15 m/s

- Spur Gear:
Spur gears have straight teeth parallel to the rotating axis and thus are not subjected to axial thrust due to teeth load. Spur gears are the most common type of gears. They have straight teeth, and are mounted on parallel shafts. Sometimes, many spur gears are used at once to create very large gear reductions.
Each time a gear tooth engages a tooth on the other gear, the teeth collide, and this impact makes a noise. It also increases the stress on the gear teeth. Spur gears are the most commonly used gear type. They are characterized by teeth, which are perpendicular to the face of the gear. Spur gears are most commonly available, and are generally the least expensive.

Fig. Spur Gear Terminology
The following terms, which are mostly used to describe a gear, are as follow:
- Face of tooth: It is defined as the surface of the tooth above the pitch circle is known as face.
- Flank of tooth: The surface of the tooth below the pitch circle is known as flank.
- Top land: The top most surface of the tooth is known as the top land of the tooth.
- Face width: Width of the tooth is known as face width.
- Pitch Circle: It is an imaginary circle which is in pure rolling action. The motion of the gear is describe by the pitch circle motion.
- Pitch Circle diameter: The diameter of the pitch circle from the center of the gear is known as pitch circle diameter. The gear diameter is described by its pitch circle diameter.
- Pitch point: When the two gears are in contact, the common point of both of pitch circle of meshing gears is known as pitch point.
- Pressure angle or angle of obliquity: Pressure angle is the angle between common normal to the pitch circle to the common tangent to the pitch point.
- Addendum: Distance between the pitch circle to the top of the tooth in radial direction is known as addendum.
- Dedendum: Distance between the pitch circle to the bottom of the tooth in radial direction, is known as dedendum of the gear.
- Addendum circle: The circle passes from the top of the tooth is known as addendum circle. This circle is concentric with pitch circle
- Dedendum circle: The circle passes from the bottom of the tooth is known as dedendum circle. This circle is also concentric with pitch circle and addendum circle.
- Circular pitch: The distance between a point of a tooth to the same point of the adjacent tooth, measured along circumference of the pitch circle is known as circular pitch. It is plays measure role in gear meshing. Two gears will mesh together correctly if and only they have same circular pitch.
- Diametrical pitch: The ratio of the number of teeth to the diameter of pitch circle in millimeter is known as diametrical pitch.
- Module: The ratio of the pitch circle diameter in millimeters to the total number of teeth is known as module. It is reciprocal of the diametrical pitch.
- Clearance: When two gears are in meshing condition, the radial distance from top of a tooth of one gear to the bottom of the tooth of another gear is known as clearance. The circle passes from the top of the tooth in meshing condition is known as clearance angle.
- Total depth: The sum of the addendum and dedendum of a gear is known as total depth. It is the distance between addendum circle to the dedendum circle measure along radial direction.
- Working depth: The distance between addendum circle to the clearance circle measured along radial direction is known as working depth of the gear.
- Tooth thickness: Distance of the tooth measured along the circumference of the pitch circle is known as tooth thickness.
- Tooth space: Distance between the two adjacent tooth measured along the circumference of the pitch circle is known as the tooth space.
- Backlash: It is the difference between the tooth thickness and the tooth space. It prevents jamming of the gears in meshing condition.
- Profile: It is the curved formed by the face and flank is known as profile of the tooth. Gear tooth are generally have cycloidal or involute profile.
- Path of contact: The curved traced by the point of contact of two teeth form beginning to the end of engagement is known as path of contact.
- Arc of contact: It is the curve traced by the pitch point form the beginning to the end of engagement is known as arc of contact.
- Arc of approach: The portion of the path of contact from beginning of engagement to the pitch point is known as arc of approach.
- Arc of recess: The portion of the path of contact form pitch point to the end of the engagement is known as arc of recess.

- Helical Gear:
The helical gear is used to connect two parallel shafts and teeth inclined or unused to the axis of the shafts. The leading edges of the teeth are not parallel to the axis of rotation, but are set at an angle. Since the gear is curved, this angling causes the tooth shape to be a segment of a helix. Helical gears can be meshed in a parallel or crossed orientations.
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
Fig. Helical Gear Fig. Bevel Gear
- Bevel Gear:
Bevel gears transmit power between two intersecting shafts at any angle or between non- intersecting shafts. They are classified as straight and spiral tooth bevel and hypoid gears. When intersecting shafts are connected by gears, the pitch cones (analogous to the pitch cylinders of spur and helical gears) are tangent along an element, with their apexes at the intersection of the shafts where two bevel gears are in mesh. The size and shape of the teeth are defined at the large end, where they intersect the back cones. Pitch cone and back cone elements are perpendicular to each other. The tooth profiles resemble those of spur gears having pitch radii equal to the developed back cone radii.
- Worm Gear:
Worm gears are usually used when large speed reductions are needed. The reduction ratio is determined by the number of starts of the worm and number of teeth on the worm gear. But worm gears have sliding contact which is quiet worn out to produce heat and have relatively low transmission efficiency.
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
The applications for worm gears include gear boxes, fishing pole reels, guitar string tuning pegs, and where a delicate speed adjustment by utilizing a large speed reduction is needed.
Fig. Worm and worm wheel Fig. Screw gear Fig. Miter gear
- Screw gears:
Screw gears, also sometimes called crossed helical gears, are helical gears used in motion transmission between non-intersecting shafts. The helical gears used in parallel shafts have the same helix angle but in the opposite directions.
- Miter gears:
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
Miter gears are one type of bevel gears where the two rotational axes intersect. When speaking of narrow definition of bevel gears with ability to increase or decrease speed, miter gears do not have that ability due to the pair's same number of teeth. Their purpose is limited to the change in transmission direction. Because they are a type of bevel gears, the basic characteristic of bevel gears exist such as presence of gear forms of straight cut, spiral cut and zerol types.
Result:
Thus gear, types and its parameters were studied.
Outcome:
From this experiment, students will be able to demonstrate the principles of gear, types and its parameters which is used in transmission systems.
