Spur gear rack is a common mechanical transmission element, mainly composed of two parts: gear and rack. The following is a detailed introduction to rack spur gear:
1. Structure
Gear: Usually circular, with evenly distributed teeth, responsible for the transmission of rotational motion.
Rack: A linear element with teeth that match the gear, responsible for converting rotational motion into linear motion.
Working principle
When the gear rotates, its teeth mesh with the teeth of the rack, causing the rack to move along its length, thereby realizing the conversion from rotation to linear motion.
2. Main Application
Spur gear rack has a wide range of uses, mainly including the following aspects:
2.1 Linear Motion Conversion
Description: Rack spur gear is used to convert rotational motion into linear motion.
Application: Commonly used in automation equipment, robots and CNC machine tools.
2.2 Transmission System
Description: In mechanical transmission systems, spur gear rack is used to achieve power transmission.
