	Involute gear - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The involute gear profile is the most commonly used system for gearing today.
		An involute is a curve that is traced by a point on a taut cord unwinding from a circle, which is called a base circle.
		The involute is a form of spiral, the curvature of which becomes straighter as it is drawn from a base circle and becomes a straight line at infinity.

		The width of a tooth measured along the are at the pitch circle diameter.
		Gears having a few teeth have very rounded teeth whilst gears with a large number of teeth, have almost straight sided teeth.
		Commercially available gears with 16 or less teeth may have a modified tooth form known as an addendum modification, or corrected gears.

	Elements of Metric Gear Technology - QTC Q410-336, 337
		The fundamentals of gearing are illustrated through the spur gear tooth, both because it is the simplest, and hence most comprehensible, and because it is the form most widely used, particularly for instruments and control systems.
		The involute curve is most easily understood as the trace of a point at the end of a taut string that unwinds from a cylinder.
		The base cylinder, or base circle as referred to m gear literature, fully defines the form of the involute and in a gear it is an inherent parameter, though invisible.

		For external gears it is measured in the root and for internal gears it is measured at the minor tip of the tooth.
		Center Distance (C) – is the radial distance from the center of a gear to the center of its mating gear.
		– is a cylindrical gear with helical teeth.

	Radio Controlled Model Car Gearing Information - How Gears Work, Gear Ratios, Involute Gear Profiles & Pulleys
		This is overcome by the fact that when the speed of a shaft is halved using gearing the torque is doubled, this is because the same energy that it would haven taken to move the gear a certain distance is then used to move it half as far in the same amount of time.
		With this gear arrrangement only the tips maintain their relative position to each other and if you were to have a model car with these gears fitted, the gears would be constantly changing speed to try and contact each other.
		What the involute profile in effect does is to simultaneously advance the speed of the front of the teeth and retard the speed of the rear of the teeth at the right point in the rotation of the gear.

	PRECISION CUTTING TOOLS - Gear Cutting Tools
		When gear teeth are cut by using formed milling cutters, the cutter must be selected to suit both the pitch and the number of teeth, because the shapes of the tooth spaces vary according to the number of teeth.
		When this cutter is used for a gear, say, 19 teeth, too much material is removed from the upper surfaces of the teeth, although the gear meets ordinary requirements.
		Involute gear milling cutters are designed to cut a composite tooth form, the centre proportion being a true involute while the top and bottom portions are cycloidal.

		An evaluation of the lead mismatch between parallel axis involute gear teeth is necessary to assess the effect of uneven load distribution along the teeth.
		To provide backlash in the gear set the tooth thickness of one or both gears must be reduced from the values given by the model (or the center distance must be increased).
		The tooth thickness of gears is specified at the reference pitch diameter which is the diameter obtained by dividing the number of teeth by the transverse pitch (diametral pitch in the plane of rotation).

	ChiefDelphi Forums - Internal vs. External Gear teeth - same profile?
		The criticality of the reduction in the height of the addendum is dependent on the relationship between the internal gear and the pinion.
		In addition, the larger gear must have the material forming the teeth on the convex side of the involute profile, such that the internal gear is an inverse of the common external gear, see Figure 1.33a.
		The tooth form for an internal gear is indeed the inverse of a "normal" external involute tooth, and not a rotation of the external tooth.

		The teeth of a helical gear are inclined at an angle to the axis of rotation of the gear.
		A gear of this class may be likened to a cylindrical blank which has a series of equally spaced grooves around its perimeter so that the projections on one blank may mesh in the grooves of the second.
		As the design should be such that the teeth in the respective gears are always in mesh the revolutions made by each is definite, regular and in the inverse ratio to the numbers of teeth in the respective gears.

	Process for grinding a gear tooth blank to form an involute gear tooth - Patent 4833836
		1, in common practice, to grind a gear tooth blank to form an involute gear tooth, the gear tooth blank effects a constant angular displacement prior to each grinding stroke during which it is ground by a grinding wheel which moves across the space between two gear teeth of the gear blank.
		effecting the relative involute profile generating movement between the gear tooth blank and the grinding wheel in accordance with the respective areas of the tooth face to be removed for removing the metal within the respective areas from the gear tooth blank in a step-by-step manner to form an involute gear tooth.
		In contrast, another spur gear blank having a maximum error of tooth shape of 14.9.mu.m is ground according to the conventional process under a condition the same as that of the test performed according to the process of the present invention.

	DANotes: Spur gears: tooth generation
		Gear proportions and absolute dimensions are often used interchangeably - this should not cause confusion provided the absence or presence of units is noted carefully.
		The useful involute flank of a tooth exists only outside the base circle (recall the generating string) however the flank of the illustrated tooth is interrupted just outside the base circle by the large trochoidal fillet - the tooth is severely undercut and would not be practical in a power transmission application.
		One of the major advantages of involute gears is their ability to work successfully when the distance between the centres of meshing gears is altered.

		On any gear, the ratio is determined by the distances from the center of the gear to the point of contact.
		The problem with this type of gear is that the distance from the center of each gear to the point of contact changes as the gears rotate.
		This means that the gear ratio changes as the gear turns, meaning that the output speed also changes.

		Gears are used in tons of mechanical devices.
		For instance, an electric screwdriver has a very large gear reduction because it needs lots of torque to turn screws, but the motor only produces a small amount of torque at a high speed.
		For instance, in the differential between the rear wheels of your car, the power is transmitted by a shaft that runs down the center of the car, and the differential has to turn that power 90 degrees to apply it to the wheels.

		Involute gears have a tooth shape that is tolerant of variations in the distance between the axes, to ensure smooth running of the gears.
		On an involute gear tooth, the contact point starts closer to one gear, and as the gear spins, the contact point moves away from that gear and towards the other.
		Involute spur gears have the invaluable ability of providing conjugate action when the gears' center distance is varied either deliberately or involuntarily due to manufacturing or mounting errors.

		although mentioning the 'involute' gear tooth profile, there is no discussion of the basic geometric properties of the 'involute' structure, and why it is used in gear manufacture, that is, because it is it's own complement.
		It is possible to have all the rotational smoothness of involute gears without using an involute profile, so long as the profile of the driving and driven gears are complementary.
		Straight cut involute gears have an efficiency of up to 98% (even higher in very fine precision gears), that is, as little as 2% of the power applied to the input gear is burned up as friction between the gear teeth, which is expressed as heat, and is carried away by the lubricant.

		In the Ikona the contact ratio is larger--in many cases much larger--than the ratio for an involute gear, allowing for the transmission of large torque output as well as for the zero backlash qualities that Nosh says are inherent in the design.
