Description: |
Roll case miter gears take heavy intermittent loads even though they are "only" driven by 20 HP or so. The gears frequently need to be replaced so split gears are commonly used to avoid the need to dismantle the shaft assembly. This invention provides a design for a split gear that maximizes strength while being easy to manufacture. |
