  2. Gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear

    The axial pitch of a helical worm and the circular pitch of its worm gear are the same. Normal base pitch, p N, p bn An involute helical gear is the base pitch in the normal plane. It is the normal distance between parallel helical involute surfaces on the plane of action in the normal plane, or is the length of arc on the normal base helix. It ...

  3. List of gear nomenclature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gear_nomenclature

    A pitch circle (operating) is the curve of intersection of a pitch surface of revolution and a plane of rotation. It is the imaginary circle that rolls without slipping with a pitch circle of a mating gear. [1] These are the outlines of mating gears. Many important measurements are taken on and from this circle. [1]

  4. Profile angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profile_angle

    The same involute gear may be used under conditions that change its operating pitch diameter and pressure angle. Unless there is a good reason for doing otherwise, it is practical to consider that the pitch and the profile angle of a single gear correspond to the pitch and the profile angle of the hob or cutter used to generate its teeth.

  5. Pitch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitch

    Pitch (gear), the distance between a point on one tooth and the corresponding point on an adjacent tooth; Pitch (screw) the distance between turns of a screw thread Blade pitch the distance between the front edge and the rear edge of a propeller blade; Pitch, the distance between passes in the helical scanning pattern of X-ray computed tomography

    This glossary of geography terms is a list of definitions of terms and concepts used in geography and related fields, including Earth science, oceanography, cartography, and human geography, as well as those describing spatial dimension, topographical features, natural resources, and the collection, analysis, and visualization of geographic ...

  7. Aircraft principal axes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_principal_axes

    The pitch axis (also called transverse or lateral axis), [5] passes through an aircraft from wingtip to wingtip. Rotation about this axis is called pitch . Pitch changes the vertical direction that the aircraft's nose is pointing (a positive pitching motion raises the nose of the aircraft and lowers the tail).

  8. Bevel gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bevel_gear

    The pitch surface of an ordinary gear is the shape of a cylinder. The pitch angle of a gear is the angle between the face of the pitch surface and the axis. The most familiar kinds of bevel gears have pitch angles of less than 90 degrees and therefore are cone-shaped. This type of bevel gear is called external because the gear teeth point ...

  9. Science project - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_project

    A science project is an educational activity for students involving experiments or construction of models in one of the science disciplines. Students may present their science project at a science fair, so they may also call it a science fair project. Science projects may be classified into four main types.
