Re: 2D/3D Gear Design
Quote:
I talked with some people about this question and what we decided is this: Take the pitch diameter, and create a model of the gear (hub, bore, whatnot) but instead of teeth just make a cylinder with a diameter equal to the pitch diameter. Inventor doesn't care about the difference. It is surely loads easier on your system (especially when you are placing/moving them . . . this can take some time on a middling machine). So my advice is to just model the gears minus the teeth (using, again, the pitch diameter). |

Re: 2D/3D Gear Design
The point is that I want the teeth to be shown.

Re: 2D/3D Gear Design
Perhaps putting a bitmap on the cylinder would suffice?
Perhaps you could find what you are looking for at www.cadregister.com |

Ok, this is possible. First, you need to find dimensions for each individual tooth (i.e. how far below the pitch diameter is the trough, how far above is the peak, what shape is it, etc.) and draw one tooth, then use circular pattern to draw all the teeth (after you extrude the first makes it easier) and viola. But, you were asking about angle gears, weren't you. In the FIRST CAD library thread there is a link to another collection of inventor files, and they have some angle gears there. Check them out. |

Re: 2D/3D Gear Design
is this what you are looking for?
http://www.cbliss.com/inventor/Parts/PowerTransmission/ most of these can be changed to any size gear by just changing a few numbers. Last edited by jrgrim12 : 03-12-2003 at 14:33. |
