The
path of contact in cycloidal gear is :
Straight
line
Curved
line
Circle
None
of the above
Curved
line
Cycloidal
profile teeth :
●In this type, the facesof the teeth are epicycloids and the flanksare the hypocycloids.
●In
this path of contact will be equal to the arc of contact.
●Cycloidal
teeth are made up of curves, it is very difficult to produce accurate profiles.
Hence, the correct option is (B).
&Key Points:-
●A
cycloidis the locus of a point on the circumference of a circle that rolls
without slipping on a fixed straight line.
●A
epicycloidis the locus of a point on the circumference of a circle that rolls
without slipping on the circumference.
●A
hypocycloidis the locus of a point on the circumference of a circle rolls
without slipping inside the circumference of another circle.
