  2. Helix angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helix_angle

    The efficiency can be plotted versus the helix angle for a constant friction, as shown in the adjacent diagram. The maximum efficiency is a helix angle between 40 and 45 degrees, however a reasonable efficiency is achieved above 15°. Due to difficulties in forming the thread, helix angle greater than 30° are rarely used.

  3. Helix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helix

    A curve is called a general helix or cylindrical helix [4] if its tangent makes a constant angle with a fixed line in space. A curve is a general helix if and only if the ratio of curvature to torsion is constant. [5] A curve is called a slant helix if its principal normal makes a constant angle with a fixed line in space. [6]

  4. List of gear nomenclature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gear_nomenclature

    Lead angle is 90° to the helix angle between the helical tooth face and an equivalent spur tooth face. For the same lead, the lead angle is larger for smaller gear diameters. It is understood to be measured at the standard pitch diameter unless otherwise specified. A spur gear tooth has a lead angle of 90°, and a helix angle of 0°. See ...

  5. Lead (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead_(engineering)

    Lead angle is the angle between the helix and a plane of rotation. It is the complement of the helix angle, and is used for convenience in worms and hobs. It is understood to be at the standard pitch diameter unless otherwise specified. The lead angle can be expressed as:

  6. Spiral bevel gear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiral_bevel_gear

    Spiral angle. The spiral angle in a spiral bevel gear is the angle between the tooth trace and an element of the pitch cone, and corresponds to the helix angle in helical teeth. Unless otherwise specified, the term spiral angle is understood to be the mean spiral angle.

    The smaller the degree of the angle, the sharper it makes the blade. The rolling disc has two sides, a diamond stone that does the sharpening and a helix disc that helps smooth the blade after ...

  8. Screw axis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw_axis

    The Boerdijk–Coxeter helix is an example of a screw axis symmetry that is nonperiodic.. A screw displacement (also screw operation or rotary translation) is the composition of a rotation by an angle φ about an axis (called the screw axis) with a translation by a distance d along this axis.

    Someone with dizziness or vertigo might find resting their head at the highest angle of a ramp-style pillow minimizes these types of symptoms. A wedge-ramp pillow can also ease lower back discomfort.
