Design & Analysis of Helical Gear of Washing Machine Transmission System
Keywords:
Helical Gear, Transmission System, CAD design.Abstract
Gears are power transmission components used to transfer power from one shaft to other. Polymer gears finds its applications in all the segments of mechanical power transmission system because of its high strength to weight ratio. These types of Gears can be used in any power transmission system and can be manufactured with required load carrying capacity and complex designs. Helical gear used in transmission system of washing machine is considered in this project work. Design & FEA analysis done and compared with analytical method. Material Selection is one of the important parameter for design. This gear is made of Poly lactic acid polymer material. 3D modelling is done using Solidworks 2015 software. Finite Element analysis software ANSYS 15.0 is used to study the load carrying capacity of Helical Gear.
