The periodic and chaotic dynamic responses of face gear transmission system considering time-varying mesh stiffness and backlash nonlinearity are studied. Firstly, a nonlinear time-varying dynamic model of face gear pair is developed and the motion equations are presented, the real accurate mesh stiffness is obtained by applying Finite element approach. Then, the dynamic equations are solved using Runge-Kutta numerical integral method and bifurcation diagrams are presented and analyzed. The stability properties of steady state responses are illustrated with Floquet multipliers and Lyapunov exponents. The results show that a process of periodic-chaotic-periodic motion exists with the dimensionless pinion rotational frequency as control parameters. The analysis can be a reference to avoid the chaotic motion and unstable periodic motion through choosing suitable rotational frequency.

The effect of mesh stiffness on the dynamic response of face gear transmission system combining with backlash nonlinearity is studied. First, a nonlinear time-varying (NLTV) and a nonlinear time-invariant (NLTI) dynamic models of face gear transmission system with backlash nonlinearity are formulated. The 6DOF motion equations of the face gear pair considering the mesh stiffness, backlash, contact damping and supporting stiffness are proposed. Second, the effect of mesh stiffness on the dynamic response of the face gear drive system is analyzed with the numerical method, where the mesh stiffness is expressed in two patterns as time-varying form and time-invariant form. According to the comparative study, some significant phenomena as bifurcation, chaos, tooth separation and occurrence of multijump are detected. The results show that different forms of mesh stiffness generate an obvious change on the dynamic mesh force.

A new dynamic model for a two-input two-path split torque transmission system which considers meshing error, time-varying meshing stiffness, and meshing-in impact is proposed. Time-varying meshing stiffness and meshing-in impact of each gear pair are accurately calculated based on tooth contact analysis and loaded tooth contact analysis. Equivalent displacements of eccentricity error and installation error along the meshing line of second- and third-stages gears are derived. The modified tooth surface of a third-stage double-helical gear is obtained by optimizing the amplitude of static loaded transmission error and meshing-in impact via nondominated sorting genetic algorithm-II (NSGA-II). Influence of modification on load sharing and dynamic load characteristics of split torque transmission system is investigated. The results indicate that the system’s dynamic meshing force increases when meshing-in impact is accounted for, which is unfavorable for the transmission. Following the modification of a double-helical gear, the dynamic load characteristics of the split torque transmission system are significantly improved, while its load sharing characteristics are improved to a certain extent.

In order to solve the load-sharing characteristics of face-gear four-branching split-torque transmission system (FGFBSTTS), the static load-sharing mechanical analysis model was established. In the model, the deformation coordination conditions of torsional angle and torque balance condition were considered. By using Loaded Tooth Contact Analysis (LTCA) technology of face gear and herringbone gear, the time-varying meshing stiffness was calculated. The influences of manufacturing errors, installation errors, I-stage pinion floating, II-stage pinion spline clearance floating, and radial limit ring clearance floating on the load-sharing characteristics are analyzed. The results show that the LTCA technology is more accurate to reflect the load-sharing characteristics of each meshing position. When the I-stage pinion and the II-stage pinion floated at the same time, the best load-sharing characteristics can be obtained. The load-sharing characteristics affected by manufacturing errors showed obvious periodic change. The radial limit ring plays a better auxiliary role in load-sharing characteristics. The theoretical results were compared with the experiments to verify the correctness of the theoretical analysis. The research results can provide a theoretical basis for the optimal design of the load-sharing structure, error control, and assembly of the face gear four branch transmission system.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to obtain the single-tooth stiffness, single-tooth time-varying meshing stiffness and comprehensive meshing stiffness of the internal and external face gears and to analyze the influence of the modulus, pressure angle and tooth width of each face gear on the single-tooth stiffness of the gear in nutation face gear transmission. Design/methodology/approach From the point of view of material mechanics, the gear teeth of nutation face gear are simplified as spacial variable cross-section beams. The shear deformation of gear teeth, the bending deformation of tooth root and the additional elastic deformation caused by the base deformation are gotten by simplified trapezoidal section method, thus the stiffness of nutation face gear teeth can be obtained. The comparison with finite element method results verifies the rationality of simplified trapezoidal section method for calculating the tooth stiffness of nutation face gear. Findings The variation of stiffness of internal and external face gears along the meshing line and tooth height in nutation face gear transmission is studied, and the variation laws of single tooth stiffness, single-tooth-pair mesh stiffness and single tooth time-varying meshing stiffness of nutation face gear teeth are obtained. Originality/value Nutation face gear transmission is a new type of transmission. The stiffness of face gear teeth is analyzed, and the variation rules of single tooth stiffness, single-tooth-pair mesh stiffness and single tooth time-varying meshing stiffness of nutation face gear teeth are obtained, which not only enriches the research of nutation face gear transmission but also has important guiding significance for the application of nutation face gear in engineering practice.
