In the last few decades in Hungary, the Budapest University of Technology and Economics and the University of Miskolc have been intensively focusing on the research field of worm gear drives [2, 5]. Our results at the University of Miskolc have also been published in a book published in the USA as well [2]. A new geometric worm gear drive has been developed, that is the conical worm gear drive having arched profiled in axial section [3]. The aim of our publication is to present the advantages, the geometric questions and the possible application fields of this new type worm gear drive.

A new type of cylindrical worm-gear drive is presented. The worm is ground by a grinding wheel whose profile consists of two circular arcs, and the obtained worm profile is concave. The teeth of the gear are processed by a hob whose generator surface is identical to the worm surface. The aim of this paper is to introduce this new type of worm gearing and to compare the operating characteristics of the new type and of the commonly used worm-gear drives on the basis of tooth contact analysis, load distribution calculation, and thermal elastohydrodynamic lubrication analyses. The results obtained show the advantages of the new type of worm gear. The results of the load distribution calculation and EHD lubrication analysis are also used for the optimization of the design parameters of the new type of worm-gear drive.

We have carried out a new geometric type spiroid worm gear drive having arched profile in axial section. We prepare the computer aided model (CAD) of this gear drive for other geometric and production analysis. The objectives of the publication are measuring of this spiroid worm using three coordination measuring machine and after doing noise analysis of this gear box.

Abstract A modified new type of double enveloping worm gearing is developed. The gear tooth surface is generated by a flying tool whose cutting edge has the modified profile of the entering edge of the worm, and the worm surface has a straight-lined axial profile and circular lead changed to the established rule. The same rule governs the motion of the flying tool in processing the gear teeth. To compare the performance characteristics of the classical and the modified new type of double enveloping worm gearings, the load distributions are calculated and the elastohydrodynamic analysis of lubrication is carried out for both types of worm gearings. The obtained results show the advantages of the new type of double enveloping worm gear drive.

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.

Abstract Gear tooth surfaces being in line contact at every instant are considered. The dimensions of the contacting surfaces must be limited in order to avoid: (i) the appearance of the envelope of lines of contact on the generating surface Σ1 and (ii) the appearance of singular points on the generated surface Σ2. The relations between the developed concepts and the Wildhaber’s concept of the limiting pressure angle are investigated. Applications to the worm-gear drive and the generation of a pinion of a formate gear drive are considered. Computer graphics have been used to illustrate the results of computation.

A new mechanism construction for small tooth number difference planetary gear drive is developed in which the planet wheel is guided by a planar crank and oscillating block mechanism. The sizes of linkage are design dexterously to get an approximate circumference linkage curve so that the engaging condition of internal gear pair can be satisfied. The trajectory of the inner gear center motion is analyzed and its error comparing with a standard circle is calculated to avoid movement interference. The movement of inner gear is study particularly to deduced formula of instantaneous transmission ratio. Despite observable fluctuation of output speed, this new type of gear transmission mechanism still has potential application value in situation with large ratio and low input speed. A hand drive winch prototype using the mechanism is also illustrated in this paper.

Aimed at solving the problems of radial fluid pressure imbalance, bigger flow ripple and shorter service life that exists in traditional gear pumps, a new type of gear pump based on the principle of harmonic gear drive is put forth, where the function for pumping fluid is achieved by mutual engagement between flexible gear and rigid gear. The structural composition, principle and features of the new gear pump are described in this article. The new pump has two higher pressure cavities arranged symmetrically, which counteracts the fluid pressure and the pump could work longer. Its displacement is two times that of the conventional gear pump and the total discharge is bigger. Flow pulsation, vibration and noise in the new pump are evidently diminished, which make the operation smooth. The new gear pump has superiority in performance and could guide the development in gear pump technology.
