What is heel and toe on ring gear?
FACE HOBBING FACE MILLING The TOE of the gear is the portion of the tooth surface at the end towards the center. The HEEL of the gear tooth is the portion of the tooth surface at the outer-end. The TOP LAND of a gear tooth is the surface of the top of the tooth.
What does a good ring gear pattern look like?
PATTERN INTERPRETATION (RING GEAR)
The drive pattern should be centered on the tooth. The coast pattern should be centered on the tooth, but may be slightly toward the toe. There should be some clearance between the pattern and the top of the tooth. Backlash correct.
When adjusting ring and pinion contact the contact should be near the?
The contact pattern on the drive side (convex) of the tooth is mostly towards the toe. Correction: Move the pinion gear closer to the ring gear.
What supports the pinion gear in the differential housing?
The pinion gear is supported by two bearings, at for and aft, that are mounted in the differential housing. The bearings are set to a specific preload when the differential is assembled. The depth in which the pinion gear protrudes into the differential housing is also preset when the differential is assembled.
