To obtain the change tendency of the wheel’s angular velocity and tangential component of contact force with time of the pinion under the step input during spiral bevel gear meshing, the tooth flank equation of spiral bevel gear was constructed based on the Non-Uniform Rational B-splines curve. The three-dimensional model of the pinion and the wheel were built based on the tooth flank equation. The calculation equation and relative parameters set for the contact force of spiral bevel gear meshing were done based on the Hertz contact theory. A mating of spiral bevel gears was taken as an example for dynamics simulation and the simulation results show that the relative error rate of the angular velocity between simulation and theoretical calculation is 0.054%, and that the relative error rate of tangential component of the contact force between simulation and theoretical calculation is 4.82%. These findings provide the theoretical basis for dynamic characteristics optimization of the spiral bevel gears.

Abstract To improve the meshing performance and increase the bearing capacity and service life of spiral gear pairs, the cutter head approximation machining method based on controlling topological deviations was proposed to solve the problem where line contact spiral bevel gears with tapered teeth depth cannot be directly machined by cutter heads. First, the mathematical model of line contact conjugate flanks was established, and meshing equations and conjugate flank equations of bevel gear pairs were derived. Second, the gear tooth flank was set as the datum tooth flank for priority machining, and the pinion theoretical tooth flank which is fully conjugate with the gear tooth flank and the pinion machining tooth flank matching with the gear were solved. Then, the geometric topological deviations model of the comparison between the pinion machining tooth flank and its theoretical tooth flank can be established. Finally, with the pinion machining tooth flank approaching its theoretical tooth flank as the modification, the additional cutting motions and machining compensation parameters of cutter heads were obtained to control the pinion machining tooth flank deviations and reduce them to the allowable deviations of its theoretical tooth flank. The contact simulation analysis and rolling test verified the correctness of the line contact conjugate flank model and feasibility of the cutter head approximation machining method.

The design of spiral bevel gears remains complex since tooth geometry and the resulting kinematic performance stem directly from the manufacturing process. Spiral bevel gear cutting up to now has relied on the works of several manufacturers. Recent advances in milling machine technology and computer aided manufacturing (CAM) now make it possible to manufacture good quality spiral bevel gears on a standard 5-axis milling machine. This paper describes the computer aided design (CAD) definition and manufacturing of spiral bevel gear tooth surfaces. Process performance is assessed by comparing the resulting surfaces after machining with the predefined CAD surfaces. This manufacturing process makes it possible to obtain geometry analytically, making design easier than with standard spiral bevel gears.

Tooth flank reconstruction and optimization methodologies after simulation process modeling are presented, in order to provide accurate model and tooth data for digitized design and manufacture of the spiral bevel gear. Firstly, a simulation process modeling utilizing universal machine settings is developed for an initial solid model. Then, due to its poor accuracy, tooth flank reconstruction exploiting the Non-Uniform B-Spline fitting method is carried out. Finally, some tooth flank optimizations are introduced for higher tooth flank precision and accurate tooth data: (1) Overall tooth flank interpolations based on the Energy method; (2) Tooth flank approximation based on the least square (LSQ); (3) Tooth flank parameterization based on the Newton Iteration method. Results obtained from some numerical examples indicate that validation of the proposed approaches and tooth flank form error is significantly reduced.
