Tooth Pair

Profile modifications are commonly used to avoid shocks between meshing gear teeth produced by the delay of the driven gear, and the subsequent sooner start of contact, due to the teeth deflections. A suitable tip relief at the driven tooth shifts the start of contact to the proper location at the theoretical inner point of contact. The shape of the relief governs the loading curve of the tooth pair, while the length of relief determines the intervals in which this actual loading curve differs from the theoretical one of unmodified teeth. As at least one tooth pair should be in contact at the unmodified involute profile interval, the length of modification should be smaller than the length of the intervals of two pair tooth contact; otherwise, a shock at the end of contact of the previous pair is unavoidable. However this problem does not occur for high contact ratio spur gears, in which at least two couples of teeth are in contact at any moment. In this work, a study on the load sharing and the quasi-static transmission error for high contact ratio spur gears with long profile modification has been performed, and a model for the tooth contact has been developed.

Misalignment Error

The effects of tooth modification on the nonlinear dynamic behaviors are studied in this paper. Firstly, the static transmission error under load combined with misalignment error and modification are deduced. These effects can be introduced directly in the meshing stiffness and static transmission error models. Then the effect of two different type of tooth modification combined with misalignment error on the dynamic responses are investigated by using numerical simulation method. The numerical results show that the misalignment error has a significant effect on the static transmission error. The tooth crowning modification is generally preferred for absorbing the misalignment error by comparing with the tip and root relief. The tip and root relief can not resolve the vibration problem induced by misalignment error but the crowning modification can reduce the vibration significantly.

Abstract In this paper, the dynamic behavior of a multi-mesh helical gear train is studied. The gear train consists of three helical gears, with one of the gears in mesh with the other two. An 18-degree-of-freedom dynamic model which includes transverse, torsional, axial and rotational (rocking) motions of the flexibly mounted gears is developed. Two different loading conditions are identified. For case I, the system is driven by the gear in the middle, and for case II, the system is driven by one of the gears at either end of the gear train. Gear mesh phases under each loading condition are determined. The natural modes are predicted, and effects of the helix angle and the loading condition on the natural modes are explained. The forced response, which includes dynamic mesh and bearing forces, due to the static transmission error excitation is found. Effects of loading conditions and asymmetric positioning on the response are also explored. The results suggest that the dynamic forces are lower if the number of teeth of the gear in the middle is (i) an odd number for case I type loading, and (ii) an even number for case II type loading.

Certain operating conditions such as fluctuation of the external torque to planetary gear sets can cause additional sidebands. In this paper, a mathematical model is proposed to investigate the modulation mechanisms due to a fluctuated external torque (FET), and the combined influence of such an external torque and manufacturing errors (ME) on modulation sidebands. Gear mesh interface excitations, namely gear static transmission error excitations and time-varying gear mesh stiffness, are defined in Fourier series forms. Amplitude and frequency modulations are demonstrated separately. The predicted dynamic gear mesh force spectra and radial acceleration spectra at a fixed position on ring gear are both shown to exhibit well-defined modulation sidebands. Comparing with sidebands caused by ME, more complex sidebands appear when taking both FET and ME into account. An obvious intermodulation is found around the fundamental gear mesh frequency between the FET and ME in the form of frequency modulations, however, no intermodulation in the form of amplitude modulations. Additionally, the results indicate that some of the sidebands are cancelled out in radial acceleration spectra mainly due to the effect of planet mesh phasing, especially when only amplitude modulations are present.

Static Transmission Error

One important source of noise in drive trains are transmissions. In numerous applications, it is necessary to use helical instead of spur gear stages due to increased noise requirements. Besides a superior excitation behaviour, helical gears also show additional disadvantageous effects (e.g. axial forces and tilting moments), which have to be taken into account in the design process. Thus, a low noise spur gear stage could simplify design and meet the requirements of modern mechanical drive trains. The authors explore the possibility of combining the low noise properties of helical gears with the advantageous mechanical properties of spur gears by using spur gears with variable tip diameter along the tooth width. This allows the adjustment of the total length of active lines of action at the beginning and end of contact and acts as a mesh stiffness modification. For this reason, several spur gear designs are experimentally investigated and compared with regard to their excitation behaviour. The experiments are performed on a back-to-back test rig and include quasi-static transmission error measurements under load as well as dynamic torsional vibration measurements. The results show a significant improvement of the excitation behaviour for spur gears with variable tip diameter.

Gear Mesh Stiffness

Gear systems are extensively employed in mechanical systems since they allow the transfer of power with a variety of gear ratios. So gears cause the inherent deflections and deformations due to the high pressure which occurs between the meshing teeth when transmit power and results in the transmission error. It is usually assumed that the transmission error and variation of the gear mesh stiffness are the dominant excitation mechanisms. Predicting the static transmission error is a necessary condition to reduce noise radiated from the gear systems. This paper aims to investigate the effect of tooth profile modifications on the transmission error of helical gear. The contact stress analysis was implemented for different roll positions to find out the most critical roll angle in view point of root flank stress. The PPTE (peak-to-peak of transmission error) is estimated at the roll angles by different loading conditions with two dimensional FEM. The optimal profile modification from the root to the tip is proposed.
