PROBLEM 8. A triple threaded worm, rotating at 1,000 rpm, drives a 31-tooth gear. Find the speed
of the gear.
•
Given:
Required:
Speed of the gear (N) in rpm
Solution:
Since it is stated that it is triple threaded worm,
let n= no. of thread = 3
To get the Speed of gear (we use the formula of velocity ratio
Substitute the given to the equation gives
Answer:
mating gear with speed ratio of2 to 1. Determine the pitch angle of the pinion.
A. 16.56 deg B. 20.56 deg C. 26.56 deg D. 32.56 deg
•
Given:
Required:
pitch angle of the pinion
Solution:
Since the angle of the shaft is not given, assum
To find the pitch angle of the pinion, we use the formula
Substitute the given to the equation gives
Answer:
