worm gears are used in machines that need high gear ratios
spoons
Worm gears are found in some kinds of 90 degree gearing junctions, generally with a large change in gearing ratio.
For example, many tillers have worm gears between the input shaft and the crosswise tines.
Since a motorcycle doesn't need a true differential, it may also have a worm gear connecting the drive shaft to the rear wheel.
An adjustable end wrench (Crescent Wrench) also has a worm gear for adjustment, and it is easily visible.
There are some devices such as a telescope stand that have precision adjustment with a worm gear, especially if the only adjust through a fraction of a circle.
Worm gears are used to reduce speed. They can be found in factories. Google it to buy one.

What is different between spur gear and worm gear?
Spur gears give 180 degree drive, and worm gears give 90 degree drive.
How do you measure the circular pitch in worm gears?
Divide 3.14 by the diametral pitch. Worm gears are a compact, efficient means of substantially decreasing speed and increasing torque.
What is the working principle of worm gears in sand mullers?
Sand mullers break up sand after it has been used in molds to facilitate sandcasting. By effectively breaking up the sand, it can be reused. The worm on a motor or on the "driven" side of the device will engage with a worm gear. The worm rotates continuously, and the spiral cut gears "worm" their way "along" the axis of the gear. The worm gear (or spur gear) engages with the worm and rotates continuously as well. Also, the worm gear will translate the rotary motion of the worm by 90 degrees. It is fairly easy to see how the unit works if you look at some pictures or drawings. Hey, how about some animation or video? Got a couple of links.
Is planetary gears used for spur gear?
Planetary gears can be spur or helical gears.
Why are gears important?
Gears are used to make pieces of items or objects rotate. They are used in a majority of machines available.
What are the various forces acting on bevel gears and worm gears?
Bevel gears can change the speed and motion and Worm gears can reduce speed and direction of motion.
What is different between spur gear and worm gear?
Spur gears give 180 degree drive, and worm gears give 90 degree drive.
How do you be the Rift worm in Gears of war 2?
There is no way to play as the Riftworm in Gears of War 2.
How do you measure the circular pitch in worm gears?
Divide 3.14 by the diametral pitch. Worm gears are a compact, efficient means of substantially decreasing speed and increasing torque.
What is the use of worm in the working of machine?
The use of worm or worm gears in the working of a machine allows for the exchange of energy for torque or movement.
What is the function of a worm gear?
In worm gears, an axle or shafts has a screw that connects with another gear. This system is used when you need to change the direction of motion and reduce speed
What is a hobbing machine used for?
A hobbing machine is used for cutting gear teeth in gear blanks and for cutting worm, spur, or helical gears.
What gear type is commonly used on residential-type circular saws?
Most hand-held circular saws have no gears--the blade is mounted directly on the motor shaft. The exception is the original-design Skilsaw, which uses a worm gear to drive the blade. (The company makes both styles, today).

Why is a worm gear used in a motorized screw jack?
Not all screw jacks are driven by worm gears. Instead of a worm gear it can also be hydraulically operated. It is used because of the property of self locking. A Screw Jack Can be operated by electrically or manually. Electrically-powered screw jacks can save manpower, and control the linear speed.
What is the difference of a crown gear or a worm gear?
A crown gear has teeth that engage with other bevel gears. The teeth stick out at right angles to the face of the wheel. A worm gear is a screw that attaches to a wheel by engaging teeth along the wheel. As the screw turns, the wheel also moves and the drive reduces rotational speed and allows for higher torque. Worm gears are used when a project requires large gear reductions.
What is the name of a gear that has big gear bottom small gear top?
This can be numerous gears, but a worm gear is extreme between the two sizes of gears.
