A ratchet structure includes a body. The body is provided with a plurality of equally spaced ratchet teeth extending along the axial direction, and an annular groove is formed on the body to divide the body into a head portion and a body portion. The ratchet teeth are located on the body portion, and a predetermined groove is provided between the ratchet teeth and the annular groove. With the predetermined groove, when the milling cutter mills out the groove in the body portion and enters the predetermined groove, the waste chips connected to the annular groove bottom surface of the annular groove will be surely cut off, thereby solving the problem that it is difficult for the ratchet wheel to get rid of the waste chips.

A gear cutting tool wherein each cutting blade group includes two differently positioned but identical cutting blades (41, 40) such as an one outside and one inside blade. The inventive blade arrangement only requires a single type of blade (30) in order to simultaneously cut the convex and the concave tooth flanks of a gear as well as the root fillet and root bottom portions of tooth slots. The cutter system allows radial adjustment of the outside cutting blade and the inside cutting blade independently of one another. Additionally, inside and outside cutting blades may be exchanged with one another.

The present application discloses a method for calibrating a measuring probe in a gear cutting machine by using a workpiece received in a workpiece holder of the gear cutting machine, wherein the measuring probe includes a measuring probe tip which is movably arranged on a measuring probe base, wherein the deflection of the measuring probe tip relative the measuring probe base can be determined via at least one sensor of the measuring probe, and wherein the measuring probe is traversable relative to the workpiece holder via at least two axes of movement of the gear cutting machine. The method comprises rotating the workpiece via an axis of rotation of the workpiece holder and traversing the measuring probe via the at least two axes of movement of the gear cutting machine such that in the case of a perfect calibration the touch point of the measuring probe tip on the tooth flank would remain unchanged.
