Abstract

For a Hindley worm, the addendum thickness of its edge tooth intensely affects its working performance and the manufacturability of its mating worm gear, whose computation is thus taken into consideration. The analytical solution to the addendum thickness is obtained for the edge tooth. The numerical results declare that the TA worm has a stronger resisting ability to the pointing of its edge tooth. Even though the number of worm thread is more or the velocity ratio is less, the edge tooth is also able to be kept thick enough. The further related research should focus on the influence of the modification on the pointing of the edge tooth.
