A 2-tooth left-hand worm transmits ¾ hp at 600 rev/min to a 36-tooth gear having a transverse diametral pitch of 8 teeth/in. The worm has a normal pressure angle of 20—¦, a pitch diameter of 1 ½ in, and a face width of 1 ½ in. Use a coefficient of friction of 0.05 and find the force exerted by the gear on the worm and the torque input. For the same geometry as shown for Prob. 13€“51, the worm velocity is clockwise about the z axis.
Prob. 13€“51, A right-hand single-tooth hardened-steel (hardness not specified) worm has a catalog rating of 2000 W at 600 rev/min when meshed with a 48-tooth cast-iron gear. The axial pitch of the worm is 25 mm, the normal pressure angle is 14 1/2—¦, the pitch diameter of the worm is 100 mm, and the face widths of the worm and gear are, respectively, 100 mm and 50 mm. The figure shows bearings A and B on the worm shaft symmetrically located with respect to the worm and 200 mm apart. Determine which should be the thrust bearing, and find the magnitudes and directions of the forces exerted by bothbearings.
