Will the Internal Gear Rotate with Gear 1? - Gear Rotation Question
Click For Summary
SUMMARY
The internal gear will indeed rotate when gear 1 is turned, as long as gear 1 fits properly into the internal gear. With the internal gear having 9 teeth and the external gear having 12 teeth, the internal gear will complete 4 rotations for every 3 rotations of the external gear. The precise shape of the teeth is crucial for effective engagement between the gears, ensuring smooth operation.
PREREQUISITES- Understanding of gear mechanics and rotation principles
- Familiarity with gear tooth design and engagement
- Basic knowledge of rotational ratios in mechanical systems
- Experience with CAD software for visualizing gear interactions
- Research gear ratios and their impact on mechanical systems
- Learn about gear tooth profiles and their importance in gear design
- Explore CAD software tools for simulating gear interactions
- Study the principles of mechanical advantage in gear systems
Mechanical engineers, hobbyists in robotics, and anyone involved in designing or analyzing gear systems will benefit from this discussion.

Yes - allowing for corrections to your artwork.
Since the internal gear has 9 teeth and the outside gear has 12 teeth, the inside gear will turn 4 times for each 3 time the outside gear turns.
Since they are so close (9 and 12), the exact shape of the teeth will be critical.
