Ultrasonic Inspection: Gearboxes

Types of Gearboxes

  • Spur - A combination of a small and large wheel that lie parallel to the shaft axes.
  • Rack & Pinion - A straight rack translates rectilinearly and may be regarded as part of a wheel of infinite diameter.
  • Helical - Like spur, helical gears connect parallel shafts but the teeth lie along helices to the axes rather than parallel to the shaft axes.
  • Straight Bevel - Bevel gears are used for shafts whose axes intersect.
  • Worm - The worm gears are used for shafts that are perpendicular. It provides a large speed ratio but has significant sliding.
  • Hypoid - Hypoid gears are used for offset shafts.
