Worm Gear
Similar to spur gear
p=
DG
NG
= px
Worm Geometry
Number of worm threads (starts), Nw
Nw =1, similar to a 1-tooth helical gear with large helix angle wraps around the face
Lead, L
Axial distance that a point would move at one revolution
D W nW
12 D G nG = 12
Pitch line speed of the worm is not equal to the pitch line speed of the wormgear Sliding
Example
pd = 6, NW = 3, nW = 1750 rpm, DW = 2 in
p , p x , L , , D G , C , vt ?
Typical dimension
Diameter of worm
C 0.875 DW = 2.5
Tooth geometry
Typical Dimension
Face width of wormgear
2To WtG = DG WxG cos n sin + cos = WtG cos n cos sin
: coefficient of friction
Sliding
Sliding between worm and worm gear
Different from other types of gears Sliding friction (not rolling friction) Sliding velocity can be calculated
Pi = Po + PL
Po = Pi
Bending Stress

Wd yFp n
Wd : dynamic load on gear teeth y : Lewis form factor F : face width pn : normal circular pitch

pd
Fatigue strength of material: 0.35 times the ultimate strength For manganese gear bronze: 17000 psi For phosphor gear bronze: 24000 psi
Surface Durability
Rated (allowable) tangental load : WtR = Cs DG FeCmCv
0. 8
Cs : material factor (material properties) DG : pitch diameter of the wormgear Fe : effective face width, Fe = min( F ,0.67 DW ) Cm : ratio correction factor Cv : velocity factor
