Ball-worm and Wheel
Ball-worm and Wheel
(OP)
Excluding the patents, does anyone know of any sources of information or actual products related to worm & wheel reducers that use balls (or rollers) between the two rotating members?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Take a look at planetary ball screws. It's not a crossed axis design like a worm gear, but it may provide you some inspiration.

Thanks for the information.
It is appearing that there are dozens of patents on ball-worm drives but, so far, only one product has been found.
