Force Analysis in Helical Gears
1 Answer
| written 6.4 years ago by |
The resultant force Fn acting on the tooth of a helical gear can be resolved into the following components. PSG 8.56
Ft = tangential component,
Fr = radial component,
Fa= axial component or thrust load

From the Geometry of the Helical Gear shown in the figure,
$\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{r}}=\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{n}} \sin \emptyset_{\mathrm{n}}$
$\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{a}}=\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{n}} …
