3.4. CHANGES IN DIRECTION AND ROTATION + 3.5. WORM DRIVE

3.4.Changes in direction and rotation

We can use various systems to change the direction of rotation or the axis of rotation ina belt drive. We can also vary the distancee between the wheels.

                              

      

3.5. Worm drive  

A worm drive reduces the speed of a rotary system very effectively. A worm drive has two parts: a worm shaft and a worm drive. The shaft has two, three or even more grooves. Each interlocks with one tooth of the worm gear.
