A cylindrical gear is a type of gear, a mechanical component used to transmit power and torque, and to change the direction of rotational speed and torque. Cylindrical gears typically consist of two or more gears that mesh with each other at a certain angle, thus transmitting power. The meshing of two gears changes the original gear's rotational speed and torque; therefore, cylindrical gears can be used to change the direction of rotation or transmit torque.
In addition, cylindrical gears have the following functions:
Constant Velocity Transmission: When two gears have the same number of teeth, their rotational speeds are the same, achieving constant velocity transmission.
Variable Velocity Transmission: When two gears have different numbers of teeth, the speed ratio between the input and output shafts can be changed.
Sealed Transmission: Sealed transmission can be achieved by adjusting the module and number of teeth of the gears, making the transmission more reliable and smoother.
