The hollow worm is one of the main transmission parts in the worm gear mechanism. has one or several spiral teeth, and meshes with the worm gear to form a staggered shaft gear pair . has the advantages of simple structure, and practical function, by increasing the contact area between the worm gear and the worm, improves the work efficiency.
Hollow worm has a wide range of applications in various mechanical transmission systems especially in the need to transfer the motion and power between the staggered shaft occasions. , for example, in the turntable, milling head, horizontal mounting, tool grinding machine, machine tool ABC axis, high precision rotary positioning and other fields, hollow worm plays an important role. In addition, according to the specific design requirements, hollow worm can also achieve variable lead, double leads and other complex transmission functions, to meet the diversified application needs .
Hollow worm as the main transmission parts of worm gear mechanism, its function is to convert the input shaft of the motor high-speed rotation into the output shaft of the lower speed .
The following are common uses for hollow worm:
Transmission action :
The worm has one or more spiral teeth, engaged with the worm gear, to transmit motion and power between the staggered axes.
Usually, worm is the active part, drives the worm gear to rotate, to achieve power transmission.
Deceleration action :
Worm gear and worm mechanism is often used to reduce the speed of the high-speed motor .
Provide suitable working speed to the driven equipment.
