What to Focus On

  • Gears are toothed wheels that mesh together.
  • They help transmit rotational motion and power.
  • They control speed, torque, and direction.

  • Spur gears have straight teeth and are common.
  • Helical gears are smoother and quieter.
  • Bevel gears work with intersecting shafts.

  • Teeth are the main working part of a gear.
  • Pitch circle is an important reference circle.
  • Base circle helps in tooth profile calculation.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Gear ratio is the number of teeth on the driving gear divided by the number of teeth on the driven gear.

A larger gear ratio always means faster output motion.

Spur gears and helical gears are basically the same because both are round gears with teeth.
