// v1.0, 6/24/16:
|
||||||
|
// -Incorporated 'module InvoluteGear_rack()' from the 11/11/15 comment by quisam2342 in thing:5505 to fix noted problems in rack generation at various tooth sizes
|
||||||
|
// -Added a section for an optional 'backboard' that can be used to stiffen an otherwise skinny rack
|
||||||
|
// -Added sections for optional Stop Blocks at either or both ends of a rack
|
||||||
|
// -Removed extra gears from the example since I only need one pinion. See thing:5505 example section to gain more insight into gear generation.
|
||||||
|
//v1.1, 6/28/16:
|
||||||
|
// -Added sections to optionally create mounting flanges on the bottom/backside of the rack. Flanges can be at either or both ends, or longitudinal.

// This is parameterized involute spur (or helical) gear. It is much simpler and less powerful than
|
||||||
|
// others on Thingiverse. But it is public domain. I implemented it from scratch from the

||||||
|

|
||||||
|
// and I now release it into the public domain.

|
||||||
|
// The module gear() gives an involute spur gear, with reasonable defaults for all the parameters.
|
||||||
|
// Normally, you should just choose the first 4 parameters, and let the rest be default values.
|
||||||
|
// The module gear() gives a gear in the XY plane, centered on the origin, with one tooth centered on
|
||||||
|
// the positive Y axis. The various functions below it take the same parameters, and return various
|
||||||
|
// measurements for the gear. The most important is pitch_radius, which tells how far apart to space
|
||||||
|
// gears that are meshing, and adendum_radius, which gives the size of the region filled by the gear.
|
||||||
|
// A gear has a "pitch circle", which is an invisible circle that cuts through the middle of each
|
||||||
|
// tooth (though not the exact center). In order for two gears to mesh, their pitch circles should
|
||||||
|
// just touch. So the distance between their centers should be pitch_radius() for one, plus pitch_radius()
|
||||||
|
// for the other, which gives the radii of their pitch circles.
|
||||||
|
//
|
||||||
|
// In order for two gears to mesh, they must have the same mm_per_tooth and pressure_angle parameters.
|
||||||
|
// mm_per_tooth gives the number of millimeters of arc around the pitch circle covered by one tooth and one
|
||||||
|
// space between teeth. The pitch angle controls how flat or bulged the sides of the teeth are. Common
|
||||||
|
// values include 14.5 degrees and 20 degrees, and occasionally 25. Though I've seen 28 recommended for
|
||||||
|
// plastic gears. Larger numbers bulge out more, giving stronger teeth, so 28 degrees is the default here.
|
||||||
|
//
|
||||||
|
// The ratio of number_of_teeth for two meshing gears gives how many times one will make a full
|
||||||
|
// revolution when the the other makes one full revolution. If the two numbers are coprime (i.e.
|
||||||
|
// are not both divisible by the same number greater than 1), then every tooth on one gear
|
||||||
|
// will meet every tooth on the other, for more even wear. So coprime numbers of teeth are good.
|
||||||
|
//
|
||||||
|
// The module rack() gives a rack, which is a bar with teeth. A rack can mesh with any
|
||||||
|
// gear that has the same mm_per_tooth and pressure_angle.
|
||||||
|
//
|
