[working principle of worm gear reducer]:
Worm gear reducer is a kind of power transmission mechanism, which uses the speed converter of gear to reduce the rotation number of motor (motor) to the required number of revolutions and obtain a large torque. Among the mechanisms used to transmit power and motion, reducer is widely used. It can be found in almost all kinds of mechanical transmission systems, from ships, cars and locomotives of vehicles, heavy machines and tools for construction, processing machines and tools and automatic production equipment used in the mechanical industry, to common household appliances, clocks and watches in daily life. Its application can be seen from large power transmission to small load and angle transmission, In industrial application, the reducer has the functions of reducing speed and increasing torque. Therefore, it is widely used in speed and torque conversion equipment.
[main functions of reducer are]:
1) Reduce the speed and increase the output torque at the same time. The torque output ratio shall be multiplied by the motor output by the reduction ratio, but pay attention not to exceed the rated torque of the reducer.
2) Deceleration also reduces the inertia of the load, which is the square of the reduction ratio. You can see that general motors have an inertia value.
