How does a worm gear work?
How Worm Gears Work. An electric motor or engine applies rotational power via to the worm. The worm rotates against the wheel, and the screw face pushes on the teeth of the wheel. The wheel is pushed against the load.
Can a worm gear go both directions?
Worm drives can go either direction, but they need to be designed for it. As you can imagine, turning the worm shaft under load will create a thrust along the axis of the screw. However, if you reverse the direction the direction of thrust will reverse as well.
The basic structure of the worm gear reducer is mainly composed of the worm gear, the shaft, the bearing, the box body and its accessories. Can be divided into three basic structural parts: box, worm gear, bearing and shaft combination. The box is the base of all the accessories in the worm gear reducer. It is an important part that supports the fixed shaft parts, ensures the correct relative position of the transmission parts and supports the load acting on the reducer. The main function of the worm gear is to transmit the motion and power between the two staggered shafts.
