Use the Worm and Wheel node for 3D components to create a connection between a
Worm Gear and a
Helical Gear or a
Spur Gear in such a way that at the contact point they have no relative motion along the line of action. The remaining displacements and rotations of both the gears are independent of each other.
When Friction is included on a
Worm and Wheel node, friction forces in the plane perpendicular to the line of action are added on both the gears.
Select Worm and Wheel from the list of gears. You can select any
Worm Gear in the
Worm field and any
Helical Gear or
Spur Gear in the
Wheel field.
