FCGear WormGear/ru

Описание
The worm can be considered a special case of a helical gear. Imagine that there is only one tooth on a spur gear. Now increase the helix angle so much that the tooth winds around the spur gear several times before it emerges on the opposite side. The result would be a single thread worm.

For a single-start worm, each full turn (360 degrees) of the worm advances the gear by one tooth. So a gear with 24 teeth will provide a gear reduction of 24:1. For a multi-start worm, the gear reduction equals the number of teeth on the gear, divided by the number of starts on the worm.

A worm can only be used with a worm wheel. This is called a worm drive. Like other gear arrangements, a worm drive can reduce rotational speed or transmit higher torque. One of the major advantages of worm gear drive units are that they can transfer motion in 90 degrees. A worm drive is also self-locking.



Usage

 * 1) Switch to the [[Image:FCGear_workbench_icon.svg|22px]] FCGear Workbench.
 * 2) Invoke the command several way:
 * 3) * Press the FCGear_WormGear.svg Create a Worm gear button in the tool bar.
 * 4) * Using the.
 * 5) Change the gear parameter to the required conditions (see  below).

Data

 * : Placement is the location and orientation of an object in space.
 * : User name of the object in the Tree view.


 * : Lead angle, not changeable - is calculated automatically (see also the information in and ).
 * : Default is 0,25 (see also the information in ).
 * : Pitch diameter.
 * : Default is 0,00. This value is used to change the tooth height.
 * : Value of the worm length.
 * : Module is the ratio of the reference diameter of the gear divided by the number of teeth (see also the information in ).
 * : change the rotating direction from right to left.
 * : Number of teeth (see also the information in ).


 * : Default is 20 (see also the information in ).

Worm wheel
The worm wheel must be designed manually. For this purpose can be used for a simple construction. In any case, in-depth knowledge of the gear types is required.
