Planetary gears are commonly used in drive technology due to their high load capacity and good weight and size parameters. Among planetary gears, multi-satellite structures with a minimum number of excessive links are most widely used. They have a close to uniform distribution of the load in the engaged gears, which has a positive effect on the strength and bearing capacity of the drive. Such designs include planetary gears, the satellites of which are mounted on spherical bearings, and one of the main links (most often the sun gear) is self-aligning. This provides a theoretically uniform distribution of the load in the engaged gears when the mechanism has three satellites. However, high-loaded drives often use designs with a large number of satellites where the load is distributed unevenly due to gear manufacturing errors. The deformability of individual transmission elements has a significant positive effect on the distribution of the load in the gears, thus compensating for the manufacturing errors. In view of this, the authors propose a multi-satellite planetary gear with a carrier made with grooves in the cheeks, which reduces their rigidity and provides, with a rational choice of the parameters of the mechanism, an increase in the mechanism’s bearing capacity. When determining the carrier cheek’s compliance, two schemes of loading in the coupling zone with the axis of the satellite (uniform and nonuniform) are considered. The solution is obtained using Mohr’s integrals. A numerical analysis of the stressed-strain state of the carrier cheek performed using the finite element method in the SolidWorks environment showed that the results of the analysis were close to the theoretical ones. They corresponded to a uniform load distribution in the coupling zone of the satellite axis and the carrier cheek. The obtained dependences can be used in the design of a mechanical drive to determine the coefficients of the uneven load distribution over the planetary gear satellites and over the individual crowns of the satellite.

Impact of number of tooth matching to load distribution of planetary gears is mainly investigated in this paper. The entire finite element model of planetary gear trains is established so as to analyze and calculate gear stress and number of tooth matching have an impact on load distribution homogeneity of planetary gears on the rated load working conditions. A new method of number of teeth design of planetary gear trains is put forward that number of teeth of sun wheel and number of teeth of gear ring are multiples as great as numbers of planetary gears. Load uneven coefficient of the example is proposed and solved, which provides theoretical basis on carrying capacity calculation, strength analysis and calculation of fatigue life of planetary transmission.

In this paper, a hybrid model is used to investigate the dynamic behavior of planetary gears. Sun-gear, planets, and ring-gear are modeled using lumped parameters elements, while planet carrier is integrated via a condensed finite element model. This approach intends to be more precise than the traditional lumped parameter models while keeping acceptable computational times. In some aeronautical applications, tooth lead modifications can be necessary to counterbalance the effect of planet carrier deflections on tooth load distribution. This study focuses on the influence of various lead modifications on the dynamic behavior of double helical planetary gears over a broad range of loads.

AbstractWind turbines (WT) must be further optimized concerning availability and reliability. One of the major reasons of WT downtime is the failure of gearbox bearings. Some of these failures occur, due to the ring creep phenomenon, which is mostly detected in the planetary bearings. The ring creep phenomenon describes a relative movement of the outer ring to the planetary gear. In order to improve the understanding of ring creep, the finite element method (FEM) is used to simulate ring creep in planetary gears. First, a sensitivity analysis is carried out on a small bearing size (NU205), to characterize relevant influence parameters for ring creep—considered parameters are teeth module, coefficient of friction, interference fit and normal tooth forces. Secondly, a full-scale planetary bearing (SL185030) of a 1MW WT is simulated and verified with experimental data.

Backlash is a key internal excitation on the dynamic response of planetary gear transmission. After the gear transmission running for a long time under load torque, due to tooth wear accumulation, the backlash between the tooth surface of two mating gears increases, which results in a larger and irregular backlash. However, the increasing backlash generated by tooth accumulated wear is generally neglected in lots of dynamics analysis for epicyclic gear trains. In order to investigate the impact of backlash generated by tooth accumulated wear on dynamic behavior of compound planetary gear set, in this work, first a static tooth surface wear prediction model is incorporated with a dynamic iteration methodology to get the increasing backlash generated by tooth accumulated wear for one pair of mating teeth under the condition that contact ratio equals to one. Then in order to introduce the tooth accumulated wear into dynamic model of compound planetary gear set, the backlash excitation generated by tooth accumulated wear for each meshing pair in compound planetary gear set is given under the condition that contact ratio equals to one and does not equal to one. Last, in order to investigate the impact of the increasing backlash generated by tooth accumulated wear on dynamic response of compound planetary gear set, a nonlinear lumped-parameter dynamic model of compound planetary gear set is employed to describe the dynamic relationships of gear transmission under the internal excitations generated by worn profile, meshing stiffness, transmission error, and backlash. The results indicate that the introduction of the increasing backlash generated by tooth accumulated wear makes a significant influence on the bifurcation and chaotic characteristics, dynamic response in time domain, and load sharing behavior of compound planetary gear set.

This paper presents dynamic analysis of a three stage planetary gear reducer for operate a tower crane. Ordinary and planetary gears have been designed respecting the coaxial, neighboring and mounting conditions. Harmonic analysis has been processed to identify frequency response for displacements, strains and deformations. The aim of the study was to determine critical frequencies to avoid mechanical resonance phenomenon. The obtained results are based on the superposition method for solving the systems of differential equations resulting from the analysis with finite elements.
