New geometry of generating spiral bevel gear is proposed. The key idea of the new proposed geometry is that the gear tooth surface geometry can be investigated in a developed curved surface based on the planar engagement principle. It is proved that the profile curve on the back of generating cone surface is a conical involute curve. The equations of generated gear tooth surface are achieved by the conical involute curve sweeping along the tooth trace of gear. The obtained equations are explicit and independent of the machine-tool settings. This differs from previous studies. The developed theory is illustrated with numerical examples to compare with the previous method, the comparison approves that the method is possible in this way. The new method indicates that there are new solutions to the design the production of spiral bevel gear.

Undercutting is a serious problem in designing spiral bevel gears with small numbers of teeth. Conditions of undercutting for spiral bevel gears vary with the manufacturing methods. Based on the theory of gearing [1], the tooth geometry of the Gleason type circular-cut spiral bevel gear is mathematically modeled. The sufficient and necessary conditions for the existence and regularity of the generated gear tooth surfaces are investigated. The conditions of undercutting for a circular-cut spiral bevel gear are defined by the sufficient conditions of the regular gear tooth surface. The derived undercutting equations can be applicable for checking the undercutting conditions of spiral bevel gears manufactured by the Gleason Duplex Method, Helical Duplex Method, Fixed Setting Method, and Modified Roll Method. An example is included to illustrate the application of the proposed undercut checking equations.

Spiral bevel gear is widely used in various mechanical transmission systems, such as tractor transmission system. Because it is mainly used in the heavy-load conditions, it would most likely resonate within the rated speed, resulting in tooth fatigue damage. In this paper, based on the principle of meshing and gear tooth machining, the spherically involute tooth profile equation of spiral bevel gear is deduced and the precise modeling method based on the CATIA is studied. The natural frequency and modal shape under free vibration are obtained by the finite element method (FEM), the influence of web thickness and web hole on the natural frequency of driven gear plate is analyzed as well. In addition, the experimental modal of bevel gear pair is carried out based on a multiple-reference impact test, Modal Assurance Criterion (MAC) is calculated, the three-dimensional modeling accuracy and the finite element analysis reliability are verified. The results show that the error between the measured frequency of bevel gear pair and the calculated frequency of the finite element simulation are both within 5%, and the MAC is above 0.8. The fourth-order natural frequency is the most sensitive to the web thickness, the second-order natural frequency is the most sensitive to the web hole.

The design of spiral bevel gears still remains complex since tooth geometry and the resulting kinematics performance stem directly from the manufacturing process. Spiral bevel gear manufacture owes most to the works of Gleason and Klingelnberg. However, recent advances in milling machine technology and CAM (Computer Aided Manufacturing) make it possible to manufacture good quality spiral bevel gears on a standard 5-axis milling machine. This paper describes the CAD definition and manufacturing of spiral bevel gear tooth surfaces. Process performance is assessed by comparing the resulting surfaces after machining with the pre-defined CAD surfaces. Using this manufacturing process allows to propose new type of geometry. This one is more theoretical and, in some respects, easier to design than the standard spiral bevel gear as it enables simpler mesh optimization. The latter can be achieved by using the model of meshing under load recalled in this paper.

Based on spiral bevel gear NC manufacture principle and generating motion of the generating gear and the work gear, the NC generation of spiral bevel gear cutting is realized by means of the vector transformation. As sophisticated calculation of the transformation is hard to implement in each interpolation cycle of NC machining, the coordinated motion of NC coordinate axes is expressed as quintic parametric spline functions, which use the rotation angle of the work gear as the parameter. The constrained optimization method of three design variables is established to obtain contacting points of gear tooth surfaces, which are acquired by solving nonlinear equations sets traditionally. The condition of normal coincidence is simplified and the object function of the equal position vectors of mating gears is established. The contacting points of gear tooth surfaces can be used for tooth contact analysis. The parametric curve interpolator is combined with spiral bevel gear NC machining, and is applied to the self-developed spiral bevel gear NC milling machine to control the gear cutting. Experimental results show that the proposed method is feasible and effective in the control of NC machining for the spiral bevel gear.

This study reports the method of forging of spiral bevel gear. Two ideas for crowning of tooth surface to obtain point contact for forging gears are proposed. By one idea, tooth surface of pinion meshes with the gear tooth surface by conjugate point contact. And the trace of contact points on the gear tooth surface is perpendicular to the lengthwise direction of gear tooth, namely becomes the “square contact” so called in gear technology. The trace can be set arbitrarily on the gear tooth, by setting the pitch point arbitrarily. By another idea, the trace of contact points lies along the tooth trace of the gear tooth. Both ideas proposed in this report, the numerical dataset of teeth surface of pinion and gear are given by the contact lines with the cutter cone. The dataset of teeth surface of pinion and gear are calculated to cut a pair of electrodes of spiral bevel gear. Tooth contacts of proposed gearing are confirmed by the 3D drawing of tooth surfaces. The tooth contact of the master pinion and gear were made and tested by tooth contact testing apparatus. The contact marks coincide well with the theoretical contact pattern estimated by 3D/CAD expression. The good results of running test of the performance of the master gear has been given. The authors completed the forging of spiral bevel gear pairs by two methods proposed in this report.
