Description
This
high quality example of a steel worm and phosphor bronze wheel is built
on a substantial wall mounted base. Both worm and wheel have integral
cord drums with cords and load hangers to provide torque. The velocity
ratio of 30:1 is achieved by a single start worm.
This equipment
is part of a range designed to both demonstrate and experimentally
confirm basic engineering principles. Great care has been given to each
item so as to provide wide experimental scope without unduly
complicating or compromising the design. Each piece of apparatus is
self-contained and compact. Setting up time is minimal, and all
measurements are made with the simplest possible instrumentation, so
that the student involvement is purely with the engineering principles
being taught. A complete instruction manual is provided describing the
apparatus, its application, experimental procedure and typical test
results.
