Abstract The worm and worm-gear tooth surfaces of existing design of Flender gear drive are in line contact at every instant and the gear drive is very sensitive to misalignment. Errors of alignment cause the shift of the bearing contact and transmission errors. The authors propose : (1) Methods for computerized simulation of meshing and contact of misaligned worm-gear drives of existing design (2) Methods of modification of geometry of worm-gear drives that enable to localize and stabilize the bearing contact and reduce the sensitivity of drives to misalignment (3) Methods for computerized simulation of meshing and contact of worm-gear drives with modified geometry The proposed approach was applied as well for the involute (David Brown) and Klingelnberg type of worm-gear drives. Numerical examples that illustrate the developed theory are provided.

A new approach has been developed by the authors to estimate the load share of worm gear drives, and to calculate the instantaneous tooth meshing stiffness and loaded transmission errors. In the approach, the finite element (FE) modelling is based on the modified tooth geometry, which ensures that the worm gear teeth are in localized contact. The geometric modelling method for involute worm gears allows the tooth elastic deformation and tooth root stresses of worm gear drives under different load conditions to be investigated. On the basis of finite element analysis, the instantaneous meshing stiffness and loaded transmission errors are obtained and the load share is predicted. In comparison with existing methods, this approach applies loaded tooth contact analysis and provides more accurate load capacity rating of worm gear drives.

The design and simulation of meshing of a single enveloping worm-gear drive with a localized bearing contact is considered. The bearing contact has a longitudinal direction and two branches of contact path. The purpose of localization is to reduce the sensitivity of the worm-gear drive to misalignment. The author’s approach for localization of bearing contact is based on the proper mismatch of the surfaces of the hob and drive worm. The developed computer program allows the investigation of the influence of misalignment on the shift of the bearing contact and the determination of the transmission errors and the contact ratio. The developed approach has been applied for K type of single-enveloping worm-gear drives and the developed theory is illustrated with a numerical example. [S1050-0472(00)00502-X]

Determination of dedendum circle diameter of ring gear in planetary gear drives is an important issue in preliminary design of electric motorcycle transmission. Genetic optimization is used to automate preliminary design of gears by minimizing volume of gear trains. An improved genetic optimization method was applied to a planetary gear transmission of electric motorcycle. Gray code way was applied in variable binary strings for improve research efficiency. Dynamic penalty functions were introduced to the objective function for handing the design constraints. The results were compared with a enumeration method usually applied. Improved GA produced quite well results promptly supplying design parameters of a planetary gear transmission.
