October 27, 2012 Gears Pinion Gear –or Driving Gear Driven Gear Pitch – Number of Teeth Per Inch Pitch Diameter – Circle at which the two gears meet Pinion Driven Gear
October 29, 2011Parthiv and Malavya Shah P=N/d Where: P= diametral pitch (teeth per inch) d = pitch diameter (in) N = number of teeth

October 29, 2011Parthiv and Malavya Shah Gear Ratios GR = N2/N1 = T2/T1 = ω1/ω2 If N2>N1 Torque is increased, speed is decreased If N2<N1 Torque is decreased, speed is increased Gear Train: GR = (N3/N2)(N4/N3)(N6/N5)
October 29, 2011Parthiv and Malavya Shah Roller Chain Sprockets Pitch – Distance between rollers Pitch Diameter – Circle at which the roller chain sits on the sprocket D=p/(sin(180°/N) where: D=diameter, p=pitch, N = teeth

October 27, 2012 Determine Gear Ratio for a motor that has output torque of 2 N-m and is used to rotate an arm 1.5m long with a mass of 2kg at the end of it. Torque Example Given: Tm = 2 N-m Larm = 1.5m M=1.5kg Solution: Force = Mass x Gravity = 1.5kg*(9.81N/kg) = N Torque = Force x Length of Arm = N x 1.5m = N-m ~ 22 N-m Gear Ratio: GR = Load Torque / Torque Motor = 22N-m / 2N-m = 10
October 27, 2012 Determine Gear Ratio for a motor that Rotates at 5000 rev/min to drive a 4 in wheel 16 ft/s Speed Example Given: n = 5000rpm Dwheel = 4in V=16ft/s Solution: V=n*π*D so Wheel Speed n = v/(D* π) = 16/((4/12)*3.14) = rps x 60= rpm Gear Ratio: GR = Motor Speed/ Wheel Speed = 5000rpm / = 5.45
