Worm gear mechanism is a mechanical mechanism that has both self-locking and transmission functions. Its characteristics mainly include: large transmission ratio, compact structure, good self-locking performance, high transmission efficiency, and high manufacturing difficulty.
Force analysis of worm gear and worm gear
During the transmission process, the worm gear is subjected to axial thrust from the worm gear, axial thrust from the worm wheel, and meshing friction. Among them, the axial thrust of the worm mainly comes from the transmission torque, while the axial thrust of the worm gear is affected by the frictional force of the worm gear tooth surface. Meanwhile, due to the self-locking performance of the worm gear, its transmission process is generally not affected by reverse torque.

Strength analysis of worm gear and worm gear
The strength of the worm gear is an important factor affecting its service life and load-bearing capacity. Its strength is subject to factors such as materials, manufacturing processes, working conditions, and stress conditions. In order to improve the strength of the worm gear, it is usually necessary to choose materials with higher strength, such as 45 steel or alloy steel, and adopt reasonable heat treatment processes. At the same time, in structural design, it is also necessary to consider the stress situation and avoid the occurrence of stress concentration.
Failure modes of worm gear and worm gear
The failure modes of worm gears and worm gears mainly include wear, pitting, and bonding. Wear is a wear phenomenon caused by tooth contact fatigue, which usually occurs in long-term heavy-duty transmission; Pitting corrosion is a fatigue point like failure phenomenon caused by continuous cycling of tooth contact points, which usually occurs in medium load and medium speed transmissions; Adhesive bonding is a phenomenon caused by high temperature and poor lubrication, which usually occurs in high-speed transmissions. Therefore, in practical applications, it is necessary to select appropriate materials, lubrication methods, and structural designs for different working conditions to reduce the risk of failure.
