Example Problem:
A standard spur gear.
Given:
Pd = 6 T = 18 teeth
Pressure angle, = 20° Tooth Profile System, Full depth Involute System
Required:
Construct the gear-tooth profile and draw, at least, 5 teeth of gear
To construct the gear-tooth profile of a standard spur gear with the given parameters (Pitch diameter Pd
= 6, Number of teeth T = 18, Pressure angle φ = 20°, Tooth Profile System = Full depth Involute System),
we can follow these steps:
Calculate the module (m) using the formula:
m = Pd/T
m = 6/18
m = 1/3
Calculate the base circle diameter (D_b) using the formula:
Db = Pd/cos(ϕ)
Db = 6/cos(20)
Db = 6.28
Calculate the addendum (a) using the formula:
a=1×m
a = 1 × 1/3
a = 1/3
Calculate the dedendum (b) using the formula:
b = 1.25 × m
b = 1.25 × 1/3
b = 5/12
Calculate the outside diameter (D_o) using the formula:
Do = Db + 2a
Do = 6.28 + 2(1/3)
Do = 6.94
