Abstract. As a type of spatial transmission mechanism, noncircular bevel gears can be used to transfer the power and motion with a variable transmission ratio between intersecting axes. In this paper, utilizing the spherical triangle theorem and meshing principle, the parametric equations of the contact ratio are established in the space polar coordinate system. Two innovative methods are proposed to analyze the contact ratio by using the rotation angle of the driving (driven) gears and the arc length of pitch curve as pure rolling. In the case of modified gear and X-zero gear, whether the noncircular bevel gear is continuously driven is deduced. The simulation transmission ratio curve and theoretical transmission ratio curve are compared to verify the rationality of the design.

The subject of this paper is the synthesis of the pitch surfaces of non-circular skew gears, intended to generate any motion program with a periodically varying transmission ratio. This is done by extending an existing algorithm, which was formulated through the application of dual algebra and the Principle of Transference. In particular, the variable transmission ratio of N-lobed elliptical and logarithmical cylindrical gears is expressed and analyzed along with their main characteristics to test the proposed algorithm, which is implemented in Matlab. The code generates the pitch surfaces of N-lobed elliptical and logarithmical skew gears, along with those of indexing skew gears. Finally, significant numerical and graphical results are shown to analyze the geometrical characteristics of the gear engagement. Not unexpectedly, cylindrical and bevel non-circular gears become particular cases thereof.

In order to obtain the ideal steering performance, an active rear wheel steering (ARS) controller, based on the variable transmission ratio control strategy, is developed in this paper. ARS controller using sliding mode technique is designed to follow the desired yaw rate which is calculated by the ideal variable transmission ratio. Simulation result shows that, the proposed control strategy both obtains desired steering performance and provides the obvious benefits for the human driver.

Pulley strain aggravated whole-Part abrasion, affected friction and lubricates state of metal belt continuously variable transmission. Pulley strain was analyzed by analytical method and finite element analysis. The results indicate that with the increase of transmission ratio, the driver pulley compressive strain is increases after reduces for a while, and the driven pulley increase. Compressive strain dense when radius is lesser and vice versa. Two methods results are basically the same, whereby demonstrating that the model is rational and that the analysis results are reliable.

Abstract In the existing traction continuously variable transmission (CVT), half toroidal CVT (HT-CVT) is considered to have a better traction performance. However, the HT-CVT has the spin losses due to its structural limitations, which significantly influences the traction efficiency. In this paper, the kinematic qualities and contact models of a novel zero-spin rolling conical CVT (RC-CVT) are studied, and then the rollers and conical disks are compactly designed through the proposed design principles. Subsequently, the transmission efficiency is investigated by using a detailed numerical model and compared with HT-CVT. Based on these computational models and parameters, the practical spin ratio, spin momentum and traction efficiency of RC-CVT are calculated and compared with HT-CVT. The results show that the practical spin ratio and spin momentum of RC-CVT are much smaller than that of HT-CVT, and the efficiency on fixed transmission ratio is consequently higher than that of HT-CVT.
