I want to use the power window motor motor to rotate a pair of fog lights that i have under the front of my pickup up and down. Will the motor lock in position to hold them up?
Hello @x739 ,
Welcome to RobotShop community.
It shouldn’t be a problem, check the following:
“Unlike with ordinary gear trains, the direction of transmission (input shaft vs output shaft) is not reversible when using large reduction ratios, due to the greater friction involved between the worm and worm-wheel, when usually a single start (one spiral) worm is used. This can be an advantage when it is desired to eliminate any possibility of the output driving the input.”
Let us know if you have further questions.
Sincerely,
