Hand crank right angle drive
Hand crank right angle drive
(OP)
I need to design some adjustable guides that will move on a lead screw with a hand crank. The problem I have is I don't have enough room to come straight out of the lead screw with a hand wheel. I need it to be 90 deg from the lead screw. I can't seem to find a right angle drive for a hand wheel. All I find are for motors which I won't be anywhere near the rpm. Any suggestions on where to source?

Bevel gear boxes are out there. How about a low ratio worm drive?

I am assuming a 1:1 gear ratio. Is this correct? How strong does this mechanism need to be? Are you lifting a truck or lifting a microscope stage?

Same site has miter gear boxes, ie 1:1 ratio too.
