Itwill be observed that the ^ width of the wheel… … Fig. 21. Each dimension may be expressed as the chord of the angle ^measured at different radii. The radius of the pitch line d d being - that of the root of the teeth ^ + k. Sufficient thickness of metal must be left in the rim to prop-erly support the teeth of the wheel as in the case of a spur…
