Cards

Term
Addendum
Definition
The radial distance from the pitch circle to the outside diameter. p760
Term
Bevel Gear
Definition
teeth on a cone, are used to transmit motion between intersecting shafts. p763
Term
Blanking
Definition
refers to the initial forming or machining operations that produce a semi-finished part ready for gear cutting, starting from a piece of raw material. p764
Term
Bottoming Tap
Definition
having no tapered threads, is used to finish the few remaining threads at the bottom of the hole to full depth. p751
Term
Broaching
Definition
Another way to form cut teeth. All the toothe space are cut simultaneously and the tooth is formed progressively. p765
Term
Circular Pitch
Definition
The distance between corresponding points of adjacent teeth, measured along the pitch circle. p760
Term
Cold-Roll Forming
Definition
has been highly developed and widely adopted in recent years. normally takes several rotations.
Term
Collapsible Tap
Definition
similar to self-opening die heads in that the cutting elements collapse inward automatically when the thread is complete. p751
Term
Crown Gear
Definition
a special form of bevel gear having a 180 cone apex angle. (Teeth on the side of the disk) p763
Term
Dedendum
Definition
The radial distance from the pitch circle to the root circle. Equal to the addendum plus the clearance. p760
Term
Diametral Pitch
Definition
The number of teeth per unit of pitch diameter. p760
Term
Fluteless Tap
Definition
Create internal threads in ductile metals. has a special cross section. p758
Term
Form Milling
Definition
a basic method of machining a gear to mill out the space between the teeth using a cutter to machine the gear. p764
Term
Gear Finishing
Definition
Only minute amounts of metal need removing. Done after primary machining or other heat treatments. p772
Term
Gear Grinding
Definition
used to obtain very accurate teeth on hardened gears. p772
Term
Gear Hobbing
Definition
Term
Gear Roll Forming
Definition
Term
Gear Shaping
Definition
generate gears by a reciprocating tool motion. p766
Term
Gear Teeth
Definition
Added to wheels prevent slipping and to assure that their relative motions are constant. p758
Term
Herringbone Gear
Definition
neutralize side thrust by having, in effect, two helical-gear halves, one on the right-hand and the other a left-hand helix. p762
Term
Hob
Definition
One long rack tooth that has been wrapped around a cylinder in the form of a helix and fluted at intervals to provide a number of cutting edges. p768
Term
Hobbing
Definition
Involute gear teeth could be generated by a cutter that has the form of a rack. p768
Term
Involute Curve
Definition
generated by a point on a straight line when the line rolls around a base circle. p760
Term
Pitch
Definition
in the metric system it is always expressed in mm, and fractions of an inch in the American system. p742
Term
Pitch Circle
Definition
corresponds to the diameter of the wheel. p759
Term
Pitch Diameter
Definition
all elements of the thread are based on this. p742
Term
Planetary Gear
Definition
Holding six gear blanks move in a planetary motion about a large, central gear cutter. p768
Term
Plug Tap
Definition
has only a few tapered threads to provide gradual cutting of the threads to depth. p761
Term
Rack
Definition
is a gear with infinite radius, having teeth that lie on a straight line on a plane. p762
Term
Self-Opening Die Head
Definition
Used for high speed production. Used instead on turret lathes. p749
Term
Spur Gear
Definition
have straight teeth and are used to connect parallel shafts. p761
Term
Taper Tap
Definition
has a tapered end that will enter the hole a sufficient distance to help align the tap. p751
Term
Thread Cutting
Definition
refers to the manufacture of threads on external diameters. p741
Term
Thread Rolling
Definition
Used to produce threads in substantial quantities. A cold-forming process operation in which the threads are formed by rolling a thread blank between hardened dies that cause the metal to flow radially into the desired shape. p756
Term
Thread Tapping
Definition
the cutting of an internal thread by means of a multiple-point tool. p750
Term
Threading
Definition
Term
Worms
Definition
similar to a screw. It may have one or more threads, the multiple-thread type being very common. p762.
Term
Worm Gear
Definition
Used in conjunction with worms. Easy to obtain high gear ratios. p762
