In the previous article, we have discussed the details regarding the Gear terminology. Now we will discuss the classification of Gears. The gear wheels are basically classified by different criteria as follows. According to the position of axes of the shaft According to the position of teeth on the gear surface According to the type […]
Gear Terminology: Terms Used in Gears
In the Power transmission segment, gears have a significant role in transmitting the torque by the required velocity (transmission ratio) at the driver end to the driven end without any slipping. To begin with, first, we need to understand the Gear terminology, and followed by the different types of gears and their classification. Gear Terminology […]
What is a Clutch? | Friction Clutch
In the power transmission domain, the clutch has a significant role for transmitting the power between driver and driven which must be started and stopped frequently. A Clutch is used in this application to do the job. Let’s discuss more details on the Friction Clutch. Friction Clutch A friction clutch is a device is used […]
How to calculate the Torque required to lift the load by a Screw Jack?
Jackscrew, also known for the screw jack or a worm screw jack, machine screw jack, lead screw jack like many names. This device is used to lift heavy loads with a comparatively smaller effort with a hand lever. It basically converts the rotary motion into linear motion with a screw and nut. Screw Jack As […]
What are the different types of Friction?
It is almost impossible to produce frictionless surfaces for machine components. Even a very smooth surface is viewed under a microscope, it is found to have roughness and irregularities. which is impossible to check by an ordinary touch. So friction becomes a common problem for some cases and for some cases it is necessary to […]
