  2. Involute gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Involute_gear

    Meshing of two spur gears with involute external teeth. z 1 = 20, z 2 = 50, α = 20°, x 1 = x 2 = 0, ISO 53:1998. The lower (green) gear is the driving one. The line of contact, which is the locus of all teeth contact points, is shown in blue. The contact points are highlighted with bold black dots; either one pair or two pairs of teeth can be ...

  3. Spline (mechanical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spline_(mechanical)

    Involute spline where the sides of the equally spaced grooves are involute, as with an involute gear, but not as tall. The curves increase strength by decreasing stress concentrations. Crowned splines where the sides of the equally spaced grooves are usually involute, but the male teeth are modified to allow for misalignment. Serrations

  5. Pressure angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_angle

    Pressure angles. Pressure angle in relation to gear teeth, also known as the angle of obliquity, [1] is the angle between the tooth face and the gear wheel tangent. It is more precisely the angle at a pitch point between the line of pressure (which is normal to the tooth surface) and the plane tangent to the pitch surface.

  6. List of gear nomenclature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gear_nomenclature

    Form diameter is the diameter of a circle at which the trochoid (fillet curve) produced by the tooling intersects, or joins, the involute or specified profile. Although these terms are not preferred, it is also known as the true involute form diameter (TIF), start of involute diameter (SOI), or when undercut exists, as the undercut diameter.

  7. Hobbing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hobbing

    A hob, the cutter used for hobbing. Hobbing is a machining process for gear cutting, cutting splines, and cutting sprockets using a specialized milling machine.The teeth or splines of the gear are progressively cut into the material (such as a flat, cylindrical piece of metal or thermoset plastic) by a series of cuts made by a cutting tool.

  8. Gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear

    In involute gears, the tooth profile is generated by the involute of the base circle. The radius of the base circle is somewhat smaller than that of the pitch circle Base pitch, normal pitch, p b In involute gears, distance from one face of a tooth to the corresponding face of an adjacent tooth on the same gear, measured along the base circle

  9. Cycloid gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycloid_gear

    Involute designs for these leaves would be undercut, making them too fragile and difficult to manufacture. 3. A large aspect of the design of watch and clock movements is the minimisation of friction. Involute gear teeth often mesh with 2 to 3 points of contact at once. Cycloidal gears can be made so there are only 1 to 2 points of contact.
