Introduction to the working principle of worm gear reducer

Working principle of worm gear reducer:

The worm gear reducer is a power transmission mechanism that uses a speed converter of gears to reduce the number of revolutions of the electric motor (electric motor) to the required number of revolutions and obtain a larger torque.

The basic structure of the worm gear reducer is mainly composed of transmission parts, worm gears, shafts, bearings, boxes and accessories.It can be divided into three basic structural parts: box body, worm gear, bearing and shaft combination.The case is the basis of all accessories in the worm gear reducer.It is an important accessory to support and fix the shafting parts, ensure the correct relative position of the transmission parts, and support the load acting on the reducer.

The worm gear is mainly used to transmit motion and power between two interlaced shafts, and the bearings and shafts are mainly used to transmit power, run and improve efficiency.

Therefore, worm gear reducers are generally used for low-speed and high-torque transmission equipment.The electric motor, internal combustion engine or other high-speed running power meshes with the large gear on the output shaft through the gear with a small number of teeth on the input shaft of the reducer.Ordinary reducers also have several pairs of gears with the same principle to achieve the ideal reduction effect.The ratio of the number of teeth of the large and small gears is the transmission ratio.
