 INTRODUCTION
 A gear is a rotating circular machine part
having cut teeth which mesh with another
toothed part to transmit torque and speed.
 When two or more than two gears are
meshed to do a work then it is called Gear
drive.
 Gears is invented by Greek mathematician
Archimedes in somewhere around (287-212
BC).
 In 1932, Richard B. spikes received a patent
for an automatic gear shift for cars.
 PRINCIPLE OF GEARS
 Gear works on the fundamental principle of the law of conservation of
energy, which states that energy can neither be created nor be destroyed it
can only be transferred from one state to another.
 When we connect a smaller gear on the driving shaft and a larger gear on the
driven shaft, the driven shaft decreases per unit rotation of the driving shaft.
 As we know power is conservative, so according to this, the torque of the
driven shaft increases.
 When we connect a larger gear on the driving shaft and a smaller gear on the
driven shaft, the driven shaft increases per unit rotation of the driving shaft.
 As we know power is conservative, so the torque of the driven shaft
decreases.

 TYPES OF GEARS
It is categorized in four types:-

1) According to direction of rotation of gear.

2) According to teeth.
3) According to installation of shaft direction.
4) According to material.
According to direction of rotation of gear

1)INTERNAL GEAR 2)EXTERNAL GEAR

According to teeth

Spur gear Double helical gear

Herringbone gear
Helical gear
According to installation of shaft direction

 Parallel and non-intersecting shaft axis

 Nonparallel and intersecting shaft axis
 Nonparallel and non-intersecting shaft axis
 According to material

• It is made up of plastic, steel, cast iron etc.

 ADVANTAGES

 Gears are mechanically strong, so higher loads can be lifted.

 They are used for transmitting motion over small center distance of shafts.
 They are used for large reduction in speed and for transmission of torque.
 Gears require only lubrication, hence less maintenance is required.
 Using gear systems, we can transmit motion between non-parallel intersecting
shafts.
 They have long life, so the gear system is very compact.
 DISADVANTAGES

 They are not suitable for very large center distances of shafts.
 They always require proper lubrication.
 If many gear wheels used in gear trains that increases the weight of the machine.
 Noise and vibrations will be more at high speeds.
