    Worm gears are used to transmit motion between non-intersecting shafts at 90 degrees to each other. A worm is attached to the high-speed shaft and has a helical thread that drives a worm gear. Formulas are provided to calculate properties like circular pitch, diametral pitch, number of threads, lead, axial pitch, lead angle, center distance, and velocity ratio. Examples apply the formulas to problems involving tangential force, pitch, pressure angle, and pitch line velocity.

    WORM GEAR Basic Formula for Worm Gear (Helical


    gear)
    Worm gearing is used to transmit motion 1. Circular Pitch
    and power between nonintersecting
    shafts, usually at 90° to each other. The 𝜋𝐷𝐺
    drive consists of a worm on the high-speed 𝑃𝑐 =
    𝑇𝐺
    shaft which has the general appearance of
    a power screw thread: a cylindrical, helical where:
    thread. The worm drives a wormgear, PC = circular pitch
    which has an appearance similar to that DG = diameter of worm gear
    of a helical gear. Sometimes the wormgear TG = number of teeth of the worm gear
    is referred to as a worm wheel or simply a
    wheel or gear. 2. Diametral Pitch

    𝑇𝐺
    𝑃𝑑 =
    𝐷𝐺

    𝑃𝐶 𝑃𝑑 = 𝜋

    where:
    Pd = diametral pitch
    PC = circular pitch
    DG = diameter of worm gear
    TG = number of teeth of the worm gear

    Basic Formula for the Worm (Screw)


    FIGURE 8.4 Worm and wormgear with a 3. Number of threads (starts)
    single threaded worm. Single Thread, TW = 1
    Double thread, TW = 2
    Triple thread, TW = 3

    Worm with triple thread


    4. Lead: It is the axial distance that a 8. Velocity Ratio
    point on the worm would move as the
    worm is rotated one revolution. 𝑅𝑉 =
    𝑁𝑊
    =
    𝑇𝐺
    𝑁𝐺 𝑇𝑊

    𝐿 = 𝑇𝑊 × 𝑃𝑎
    where:
    𝑅𝑉 = velocity ratio
    where:
    NW = rpm of the worm, rpm
    L = lead, in.
    NG = rpm of the gear, rpm
    TW = number of threads
    TG = no. of teeth in the gear
    Pa = axial pitch, in.
    TW = no. of teeth in the worm

    5. Axial Pitch:
    9. Pressure angle for the worm
    𝑃𝑎 = 𝑃𝑐
    tan 𝜙𝑁 = tan 𝜙 cos 𝜆
    where:
    where:
    Pa = axial pitch of the worm, in.
    𝜙𝑁 = normal pressure angle
    PC = circular pitch of the gear, in.
    𝜙 = pressure angle
    𝜆 = lead angle, deg.
    6. Lead Angle: It is the angle between the
    tangent to worm thread and the line
    perpendicular to the axis of the worm.

    𝐿
    tan 𝜆 =
    π DW

    where:
    𝜆 = lead angle, deg.
    L = lead, in.
    DW = diameter of the worm, in.

    7. Center distance

    𝐷𝐺 + 𝐷𝑊
    𝐶=
    2

    Where:
    𝐶 = center distance, in.
    DG = diameter of the gear, in.
    DW = diameter of the worm, in.
