  2. Gear inches - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_inches

    This formula assumes that any hub gear is in direct drive. A further factor is needed for other gears (many online gear calculators have these factors built in for common hub gears). For simplicity, 'gear inches' is normally rounded to the nearest whole number. For example, suppose the drive wheel is actually 26 inches in diameter.

  3. List of gear nomenclature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gear_nomenclature

    The outside diameter of a gear is the diameter of the addendum (tip) circle. In a bevel gear it is the diameter of the crown circle. In a throated worm gear it is the maximum diameter of the blank. The term applies to external gears, this is can also be known from major diameter. [1]

  4. Gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear

    Outside diameter, D o Diameter of the gear, measured from the tops of the teeth. Root diameter Diameter of the gear, measured at the base of the tooth. Addendum, a Radial distance from the pitch surface to the outermost point of the tooth. = Dedendum, b

  5. Cycloidal drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycloidal_drive

    The perimeter of this disc is geared to a stationary ring gear and has a series of output shaft pins or rollers placed through the face of the disc. These output shaft pins directly drive the output shaft as the cycloidal disc rotates. The radial motion of the disc is not translated to the output shaft.

  6. 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.

  7. Gear train - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_train

    The pitch diameter d is the diameter of a gear's pitch circle, measured through that gear's rotational centerline, and the pitch radius r is the radius of the pitch circle. [ 3 ] : 529 The distance between the rotational centerlines of two meshing gears is equal to the sum of their respective pitch radii.

  8. Cycloid gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycloid_gear

    A cycloid (as used for the flank shape of a cycloidal gear) is constructed by rolling a rolling circle on a base circle. If the diameter of this rolling circle is chosen to be infinitely large, a straight line is obtained. The resulting cycloid is then called an involute and the gear is called an involute gear. In this respect involute gears ...

  9. Radius of gyration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radius_of_gyration

    Radius of gyration (in polymer science)(, unit: nm or SI unit: m): For a macromolecule composed of mass elements, of masses , =1,2,…,, located at fixed distances from the centre of mass, the radius of gyration is the square-root of the mass average of over all mass elements, i.e.,
