Gear Mesh Stiffness

In this study, a mesh stiffness model of spur gear drives considering the tooth corrosion effect, which is based on Ishikawa model, is proposed. The fidelity of mesh stiffness based on the proposed model is checked by comparing the result with a benchmark result from the reference and the effect of the tooth corrosion on mesh stiffness is analyzed. The prediction indicates mesh stiffness is insensitive to the tooth corrosion, but this conclusion has a signification for assessing the stability of inherent properties of a spur gear drive when the tooth corrosion is produced.

Gear Mesh Stiffness

This paper presents a finite element (FE) modelling technique to evaluate the mesh compliance of spur gears. Contact between the engaging teeth is simulated through the use of gap elements. Analysis is performed on several gear combinations and the variation in tooth compliance along the contact location is presented in a non-dimensional form. Results are compared with earlier predictions based on analytical, numerical and experimental methods. Load sharing among the mating gear teeth is discussed, and the overall gear mesh stiffness together with its cyclic variation along the path of contact is evaluated.

Some tooth profile geometric features, such as root fillet area, flank modification and wear are of nonnegligible importance for gear mesh stiffness. However, due to complexity of analytical description, their influence on mesh stiffness was always ignored by existing research works. The present work derives analytical formulations for time-varying gear mesh stiffness by using parametric equations of flank profile. Tooth geometry formulas based upon a rack-type tool are derived following Litvin's vector approach. The root fillet area and tooth profile deviations can therefore be fully considered for spur gear tooth stiffness evaluation. The influence of gear fillet determined by tip fillet radius of the rack-type tool is quantified parametrically. The proposed model is validated to be effective by comparing with a finite element model. Further, the model is applied to investigate the stiffness variations produced by tooth addendum modification, tooth profile nonuniform wear and modification.

It was found that the vibration features resulted from tooth crack and sliding on the contact interfaces due to speed variation are very similar with each other, which is difficult to distinguish. So, it is meaningful to study whether they are the same or not. Firstly, a finite element model of a spur gear pair in mesh with tooth crack at pitch circle is established to calculate the effect of tooth crack on gear mesh stiffness. Then, combined with the tooth crack through mesh stiffness, a spur gear dynamic model with six degrees of freedom (dof) is developed to extract the dynamic features affected by the tooth crack. The tooth surface friction due to different relative velocity is also involved to study its effects on the dynamic characteristics of the gear system. Finally, comparisons are made between the dynamic features of the gear system with tooth crack and the tooth surface sliding to expose their effects to supply some theoretical guidance on fault detection.
