METHOD OF PROVIDING A PREDETERMINED BACKLASH FOR A TRANSMISSION, A FIRST TOOTHED GEAR AND A METHOD FOR APPLYING A SHEET OF SPACER MATERIAL TO AT LEAST PART OF AN UPRIGHT SIDEWALL OF A FIRST TOOTHED GEAR

摘要

A method of providing a predetermined backlash (4) for a transmission comprising at least a first (1 ) and a second (2) interlocking toothed gear, the backlash (4) being provided by positioning the first (1 ) and second (2) gear with respect to each other by means of spacer means (5) applied to at least part of an upright sidewall (3) of at least one first tooth (1 1 ), the upright sidewall (3) facing a second tooth (12) of the second gear (2) adjacent to the first tooth (11 ), characterized in that the application of the spacer means (5) comprises the step of gluing a surface (8) of a sheet (6) of spacer material to the upright sidewall (3) of the first tooth (11 ).
