  2. Spline (mechanical) - Wikipedia

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

    Often, with internal splines, the splined portion of the part may not have a through-hole, which precludes use of a pull / push broach or extrusion-type method. Also, if the part is small it may be difficult to fit a milling or grinding tool into the area where the splines are machined. To prevent stress concentrations the ends of the splines ...

  3. Involute gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Involute_gear

    The involute gear profile, sometimes credited to Leonhard Euler, [1] was a fundamental advance in machine design, since unlike with other gear systems, the tooth profile of an involute gear depends only on the number of teeth on the gear, pressure angle, and pitch. That is, a gear's profile does not depend on the gear it mates with.

  4. List of gear nomenclature - Wikipedia

    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.

  5. Gear - Wikipedia

    It is a constant distance in any helical involute gear. Transverse base pitch, p b, p bt In an involute gear, the pitch is on the base circle or along the line of action. Corresponding sides of involute gear teeth are parallel curves, and the base pitch is the constant and fundamental distance between them along a common normal in a transverse ...

  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. Spline interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spline_interpolation

    In the mathematical field of numerical analysis, spline interpolation is a form of interpolation where the interpolant is a special type of piecewise polynomial called a spline. That is, instead of fitting a single, high-degree polynomial to all of the values at once, spline interpolation fits low-degree polynomials to small subsets of the ...

  8. 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.

  9. Monotone cubic interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monotone_cubic_interpolation

    Example showing non-monotone cubic interpolation (in red) and monotone cubic interpolation (in blue) of a monotone data set. Monotone interpolation can be accomplished using cubic Hermite spline with the tangents modified to ensure the monotonicity of the resulting Hermite spline.
