<p>A gear is a critical component and can be found in many industrial applications. This investigation develops a three dimensional finite element spur gear model to calculate the contact stress on the gear tooth surfaces. Contact stress is one of the main factors that is used to decide the gears tooth surface strength. In addition there are other important factors such as frictional forces and micro-pits that influence the gear tooth surface. Different analytical techniques have been used to calculate the contact stress of the gear surfaces namely; Hertzian theory and AGMA standards. The analytical results have been compared to the numerical analysis to verify the spur gear finite element model.</p>

Fine finishing of spur gears reduces the vibrations and noise and upsurges the service life of two mating gears. A new magnetorheological gear profile finishing (MRGPF) process is utilized for the fine finishing of spur gear teeth profile surfaces. In the present study, the development of a theoretical mathematical model for the prediction of change in surface roughness during the MRGPF process is done. The present MRGPF is a controllable process with the magnitude of the magnetic field, therefore, the effect of magnetic flux density (MFD) on the gear tooth profile has been analyzed using an analytical approach. Theoretically calculated MFD is validated experimentally and with the finite element analysis. To understand the finishing process mechanism, the different forces acting on the gear surface has been investigated. For the validation of the present roughness model, three sets of finishing cycle experimentations have been performed on the spur gear profile by the MRGPF process. The surface roughness of the spur gear tooth surface after experimentation was measured using Mitutoyo SJ-400 surftest and is equated with the values of theoretically calculated surface roughness. The results show the close agreement which ranges from −7.69% to 2.85% for the same number of finishing cycles. To study the surface characteristics of the finished spur gear tooth profile surface, scanning electron microscopy is used. The present developed theoretical model for surface roughness during the MRGPF process predicts the finishing performance with cycle time, improvement in the surface quality, and functional application of the gears.

Abstract Recent demands for gear couplings are to reduce the backlash and to increase the shaft angle limit. On coping with these demands, the tooth contact pressure is recognized as the trade-off problem. In the traditional estimation of tooth contact pressure, the deflection of tooth is calculated by using the formula for spur gear that has long contact bearing in the face width direction, although gear coupling has it in the tooth depth direction. And, the Hertz depression of the tooth surface is estimated as that of the infinite plane. Additionally, the traditional methods don’t consider about the edge contact on the tip or end of tooth. A successive approximation method is established to find the load distribution on the mating teeth surfaces. As for the effect of the edge contact on the tip or end of tooth, it is cleared that the contact pressure distribution deforms itself severely, but the maximum pressure is almost constant. The expressions estimating the maximum pressure and the displacement of tooth base are constructed for 6 parameters as follows; total load coefficient, relative curvature of teeth surfaces, tooth module, ratio of tooth height to face width, angle of tip contact and deviation of end contact.

We consider a gear with parallel rotation axes of an input and output part (spur gear), the input part having so-called arch teeth. We found the equation of the surfaces family for the arch tooth, the envelope of which is the tooth surface of the output part. We obtained an analytical solution of the equation that results from the condition of enveloping, which allowed to record parametric equations of the envelope determining the tooth surfaces of the output part.

The unified approach based upon the Reduced Reynolds technique is applied to develop a deterministic transient mixed lubrication line contact model. This model is used in spur gear applications to comprehensively show effects of roughness, working conditions, i.e., rotational speeds and loads on pressure ripples and severity of asperity contacts. Results show effects of the speed, the load, as well as the RMS value are coupled which makes it difficult to evaluate lubrication states by only considering one variable. Considering the Ree-Eyring non-Newtonian behavior could alleviate pressure ripples significantly, compared with the Newtonian fluid assumption. Small RMS values of surfaces, which could be achieved by superfinish techniques, would be desirable when evaluating gear tooth surface contact performances.
