Question

worm wheel

hello everyone,

i hv made many reduction systems and never consider to show inovlute profile to worm gears/ spur gears cause i didnt wanted to give extra time to make those patterns and it may also decrease mobilty of model.. now i wish to know how to do it? if anyone knows how to make a perfect involute profile for worm wheel to match worm's thread plz post here i'm also looking for bevel....

Thanx and Regards

    It sounds extremely difficult.

    I've modelled true involute spur gears, using an equation curve, but I haven't yet found a way to model an true helical gear, let alone a concave worm wheel.

    I am not a gear designer, but aren't worm teeth straight sided?

    Nice animation, by the way.

    Similar to spur gear except teeth are “concaved in”.
