What is a Gear?A gear is:• A wheel that has teeth
around its edge that interlock with the teeth of other gears.
• Wheels with mating teeth cut in the rim or surface so that one can turn the other without slippage.
• Usually attached to an axle or shaft

Applications of Gears
Control gears – long life, low noise, precision gearskinematic & stress analysis
Aerospace gears – light weight, moderate to high loadkinematic & stress analysis
Power transmission – long life, high load and speedkinematic & stress analysis
Appliance gears – long life, low noise & cost, low to moderate load kinematic & some stress analysis
Toys and Small Mechanisms – small, low load, low cost kinematic analysis

How a Gear Works
• A gear transfers circular motion from one gear to another.

Gears
Driver Gears: are directly driven by a motor
Driven Gears: mesh with the driver gear

Why Use Gears?1. Change the plane of rotation. 2. Increase or decrease the speed of
applied motion. 3. Increase or decrease the applied
force. 4. Provide a drive without slippage5. Split power6. Move power from one point to
another

Two equal-sized gears
• When 2 interlocking gears have the same number of teeth, they turn at the same speed, but in opposite directions.

Two different-sized gears
• When 2 gears have different numbers of teeth, they turn at different speeds.
• If a small gear turns a large gear, the small gear must turn more than once to cause the large gear to complete one turn. So, the large gear turns more slowly than the small gear.
• Gears can be used to change the speed of motion.

Common Gear Materials
• Cast iron• Steel• Brass• Bronze alloys• Plastic

Different Types of GearsSpur Gears• The teeth meet on a flat surface • They can change the speed and direction of
motion• Ex. Car transmissions

Different Types of GearsBevel Gears• 2 gears connect at an angle• They are often cone shaped• They can change the speed and direction of
motion.• Ex. Egg Beaters

Different Types of Gears
Worm Gears• An axle or shaft has a
screw thread that connects with another gear.
• This system is often used to reduce the speed and change the direction of the motion.

Different Types of Gears
Rack and Pinion Gears• A single gear, called a pinion, meets with a
toothed rack.• The rack may slide or stay in one place.• The system changes circular motion into a
straight line. • Ex. Railroads

Fundamental Law and Involute Curve
Generation of the involute curve
Tangent at the point of contact
rG
rP
rG / rP = constant (constant speed ratio) All common normals have to intersect at the same point P

Useful Relations
P = N / d
P = diametral pitch, teeth per inch
N = number of teeth
d = pitch diameter (gear diameter)
m (module, mm) = d / N
Metric system
p (circular pitch) = πd / N
Pp = π
