Problem

Design a gear drive of involute tooth profile to reduce the speed of a shaft from 1200 rpm to 130 rpm.

Pair 1 (Gear 1 & 2): Pair 2 (Gear 3 & 4): Pair 3 (Gear 5 & 6):
Pressure Angle = 14.5 Diametral Pitch = 0.2222 Whole Depth = 9.7065 Pressure Angle = 14.5 Diametral Pitch = 0.2222 Whole Depth = 9.7065 Pressure Angle = 14.5 Diametral Pitch = 0.2 Whole Depth = 10.785

Addendum = 4.5 Circular Pitch = 14.1372 Gear 1 Diameter = 90 Addendum = 4.5 Circular Pitch = 14.1372 Gear 3 Diamater = 81 Addendum = 5 Circular Pitch = 15.708 Gear 5 Diameter = 65

Dedendum = 5.2065 Tooth Thickness = 6.979 Gear 2 Diameter = 135 Dedendum = 5.2065 Tooth Thickness = 6.979 Gear 4 Diameter = 144 Dedendum = 5.785 Tooth Thickness = 7.754 Gear 6 Diameter = 225

Clearance = 0.7065 Tooth Space = 7.1586 Fillet Radius = 0.9405 Clearance = 0.7065 Tooth Space = 7.1856 Fillet Radius = 0.9405 Clearance = 0.785 Tooth Space = 7.954 Fillet Radius = 1.045

Base Circle θ = 87.1333 Backlash = 0.18 Working Depth = 9 Base Circle θ = 78.42 Backlash = 0.18 Working Depth = 9 Base Circle θ = 62.9296 Backlash = 0.2 Working Depth = 10
