Warm Gears

Abstract The monograph is intended especially for research workers, developers and designers of technical systems, students of technical universities oriented to drives with toothed gears. It presents theoretical and practical knowledge related to the analysis of the dynamic load of the individual drive elements containing worm gears. The monograph describes general principles of worm gear systems and methods of creation of a dynamic model of worm reducer or of an entire drive. It indicates possibilities of reduction of the dynamic load of a gear in the mode of frequent start-ups and halts of the drive.
