The zone factor (Z) is a factor dependent on the totalcontact between mating teeth and the radii of curvatureof the tooth surfaces.Internal Gears - The zone factor for internal gears shall beequal to that for the same combination of external teethmultiplied by:-

R + 1 0.8 Power( )R=Ratio R — 1

The Strength Factor (Y) is a factor dependent on thenumber of teeth in contact, the cantilever strength of anindividual tooth, and the distribution of load over the faceof the tooth.Internal Gears - The strength factor for the pinion gearingwith an internal gear shall be the same as that for a pinionof the same number of teeth gearing with a rack. Thestrength factor for the internal gear shall be the same asthat of a rack gearing with a pinion having the samenumber of teeth as the actual pinion, multiplied by:-

3(1 + – ) T

where T is the number of teeth in the internal gear.Idler Gears The idler gears in which the teeth makecontact on one side with the driving gears and on theother with the driven gears, should be calculated on the

normal basis for wear, but the speed co-efficient used incalculating the load capacity for strength must be half thenormal value.Multiple Contact - If a gear makes contact on the same setof flanks with more than one other gear, the equivalentrunning time per day is to be taken as the sum of thoseapplying to the separate mating gears.

Given the variety of gear types, service requirements,environmental influences and service temperatureranges, the choice of lubricant is an important factor forthe service reliability and service life of the machineconcerned. The following are recommended, on thebasis of DIN 51 509 (Selection of Lubricants for Gears):-1. At peripheral velocities up to v = 2 m/s:High-consistency adhesive lubricants are used on largeopen gears.2. At peripheral velocities up to v = 4 m/s:Here, splash-lubrication using a soft gear-grease iscustomary into which the gear wheel dips3. At peripheral velocities up to v = 15 m/s:Here it is oil splash-lubrication which predominates4. At peripheral velocities above v = 15 m/s:In this range, oil spray lubrication is required in most cases.

Excluding bearing and oil churning losses. Values are based on PB2 Wheels and casehardened and ground and polished worms lubricated by mineral oil. The efficiency maybe improved after the “running in” period. NOTE: As HPC standard worms are nothardened ground and polished lower efficiency values can be expected.
