Abstract:
Worm gears have numerous advantages in regard to other transmission types, especially in compact design, large transmission ratio, reliability during operation, ability to suppress vibrations, as well as design advantages in division of power. Disadvantage of worm gears is a relatively low efficiency which lead to increased transmission heating, wear and decrease of the operating life. This paper presents analysis of load carrying capacity of representative family of worm transmitters which is of interest for the engineering practice. Based on performed analysis the recommendations for selection of relevant design parameters is given.
