The generating motion of a cylindrical gear with curvilinear shaped teeth cut by a CNC hobbing machine is proposed. On the basis of the cutting mechanism and the gear theory, the surface equation of this type of gear is developed as a function of hob cutter design parameters. Computer graphs of the curvilinear-tooth gear are presented based on the developed gear’s mathematical model, and the tooth surface deviations due to machine-tool settings with nominal radius of circular tooth traces are also investigated.

Crossed-axis helical gears and hypoid gears are two conventional crossed-axis power transmission devices. Helipoid gears, a novel gear proposed herein, possess the merits of the crossed-axis helical and hypoid gears. A mathematical model of the proposed helipoid gear cut by shapers is also derived according to the cutting mechanism and the theory of gearing. The investigation shows that the tooth surface varies with the number of teeth of the shaper. Computer graphs of the helipoid gear are presented according to the developed gear mathematical model, and the tooth surface deviations due to the number of teeth of the shaper are also investigated.

The compound transmission mechanism of curve-face gear is a new type of gear transmission based on the cam mechanism and the curve-face gear pair. It combines the transmission characteristics of the cam mechanism and noncircular bevel gear. When the compound transmission mechanism of curve-face gear is engaged in the meshing transmission, the rotating center of the cylindrical gear is fixed and used as the driving wheel, and the curve-face gear can generate the helical motion around the axis. In this paper, the meshing characteristics and motion laws of the compound transmission mechanism of the curve-face gear are studied based on the theory of screw. Based on the meshing theory of gears, the coordinate system of conjugate surfaces is established, the basic meshing theory and equation are obtained. On this basis, combined with the principle of the cam, the transmission principle is analyzed by the screw theory. The tooth surface equation of the compound transmission mechanism of curve-face gear is deduced based on the meshing theory and the related knowledge of geometry. The motion law of the curve-face gear and the change of the motion law with the change of the basic parameters of the gear pair with different design parameters are calculated and analyzed. An experimental platform is built to verify the law of motion, and the experimental results are compared with the theoretical values. The correctness of the theoretical analysis is verified, which provides a new way for the research of the compound transmission mechanism of the curve-face gear.

This work uses the mathematical model of ZK-type dual-lead worm gear drive proposed in our recent work (1998). Based on the proposed mathematical model, coordinates and unit normals of the worm gear surface grid points can be determined and a data file subsequently formed. The data file is considered as the theoretical tooth surface data and then input into the computer of a three-dimensional coordinate measurement machine (3-D CMM) to numerically calculate the surface deviations of a real-cut worm gear. In addition, a computerized tooth surface measurement model compatible with the 3-D CMM is developed. Sensitivity analysis is also performed on machine-tool settings and tool-profile errors to the generated gear tooth surface variations. Minimization on gear tooth surface variations can be determined by applying the proposed measurement and calculation methods. In addition, optimum machine tool settings and tool-profile modifications are obtained by applying the developed computer simulation softwares. Moreover, the singular value decomposition (SVD) and sequential quadratic programming (SQP) methods are compared to establish the optimum machine-tool settings and resolve the minimum surface deviation problems.

The oil jet lubrication performance of a high-speed and heavy-load gear drive is significantly influenced and determined by the oil jet nozzle layout, as there is extremely limited meshing clearance for the impinging oil stream and an inevitable blocking effect by the rotating gears. A novel mathematical model for calculating the impingement depth of lubrication oil jetting on an orthogonal face gear surface has been developed based on meshing face gear theory and the oil jet lubrication process, and this model contains comprehensive design parameters for the jet nozzle layout and face gear pair. Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) numerical simulations for the oil jet lubrication of an orthogonal face gear pair under different nozzle layout parameters show that a greater mathematically calculated jet impingement depth results in a greater oil volume fraction and oil pressure distribution. The influences of the jet nozzle layout parameters on the lubrication performance have been analyzed and optimized. The relationship between the measured tooth surface temperature from the experiments and the corresponding calculated impingement depth shows that a lower temperature appears in a situation with a greater impingement depth. Good agreement between the mathematical model with the numerical simulation and the experiment validates the effectiveness and accuracy of the method for evaluating the face gear oil jet lubrication performance when using the impingement depth mathematical model.

Given the absence of a theoretical formula to analyze the influence of parameters on the contact stress of cylindrical gear with arc tooth, an explicit mathematical model of cylindrical gear with arc tooth between the design parameters and the contact stress is established based on Kriging surrogate model. The parameters of the variation function of Kriging model are optimized by using the whale optimization algorithm (WOA), and the explicit mathematical model accuracy between the design parameters and the contact stress of the gear is in turn optimized by the improved Kriging surrogate model. The influence of design parameters on the contact stress of cylindrical gear with arc tooth is analyzed based on the established mathematical model. The proposed algorithm was realized via the programming platform MATLAB; the simulation results indicate that the precision evaluation indexes (the correlation coefficient (R2), root mean square error (RMSE), and the relative maximum absolute error (RMAE)) of the proposed Kriging model are improved, in addition to the error range which is narrowed from (−2, 4) to (0, 3). As the tooth width, modulus, pressure angle, and tooth line radius increased, the contact stress of the cylindrical gear with arc tooth gear declined, which was negatively correlated with the design parameter. The amplitude of contact stress of the cylindrical gear with arc tooth was the largest due to the change of tooth radius, followed by the change of modulus, while the influence of tooth width was less. Finally, the influence of modulus-tooth line radius interaction and pressure angle-tooth line radius interaction on contact stress of cylindrical gear with arc tooth was significant.

A generalized approach for parametrizing conjugate tooth surfaces in cylindrical gears is presented in this work. Developed are the polynomials expressions to define the tooth surfaces of pinion and gear based on kinematics synthesis for planar gears. The polynomials expressions incorporate the motion generation (points or positions of precision) and function of transmission errors. It is interesting to note that if the desired pressure angle for the tooth profile is constant, the output polynomial of profile becomes a conventional involute. Polynomials expressions are given for the profile modifications necessary to compensate for any specified or anticipated errors of assembly and/or manufacturing. In addition property of rack as the limits of zone active, transverse contact ratio and contact asymmetry ratio are analysed.

A tilted head-cutter is considered the generating tool for the generation of the proposed face-gear and a mathematical model of face-gear with curvilinear shaped teeth is developed according to the differential geometry and meshing theory. The generation of a conjugated pinion is based on application of a tilted head-cutter as well. Computer graphs of the gear with curvilinear shaped teeth are presented based on the developed gear’s mathematical model, and then the equation of the gear-tooth surface is deduced. An example is presented to demonstrate the application of the proposed mathematical model.

Power skiving for internal gears has drawn increased industry attention in recent years because it has higher precision and productivity than gear shaping or broaching. Yet even though the commonly adopted conical skiving tool has better wear resistance than the cylindrical one, when known design methods are used, the tool geometry is still subject to profile errors. This paper therefore proposes a novel design method for the conical skiving tool and establishes a mathematical model of error-free flank faces. These faces are formed by conjugating the cutting edges on the rake faces—derived from a group of generating gears with progressively decreasing profile-shifted coefficients—with the work gear. A mathematical model of the work gear tooth surfaces produced by the cutting edges (over flank faces) of tool at different resharpened depths is then adopted to examine the tooth surface deviations produced with their theoretical equivalents. The results verify the correctness of the mathematical models.
