18-3 For the case study problem, use helical gears and
design the intermediate shaft. Compare your
results with the spur gear design presented in this
chapter.
Case Study Problem Specification:
Section 1–18, p. 34, presents the background for this case study
involving a speed reducer. A two-stage, compound reverted gear
train such as shown in Fig. 18–1 will be designed. In this chapter,
the design of the intermediate shaft and its components is
presented, taking into account the other shafts...
