In the article a cycloid internal engagement of gears that form an eccentric gearing, is considered. This engagement is investigated in point of insensitivity to assembly error. Only one type of assembly error – error of center distance i. e. eccentricity – is considered. It is expanded that workability of gearing with center distance error is provided on the assumption of decrease of diameter of roller that acts as central gear tooth. Roller diameter decrease and center distance error lead to breach of condition of conjugation of gears of eccentric gearing that in turn governs the output member rotation error. IThe output member and rotation transmission mechanism are not considered. Thus output member rotation error is equated to rotation error of eccentric gearing satellite. The influence of tooth profile on rotation error of eccentric gearing satellite is estimated when center distance error. On the base of matrix kinematic the methodology that takes in account the multiple-tooth contact is worked out. On basis of the developed methodology the research of influence of satellite tooth profiles formed on the base of shortened and extended epicycloids on rotation error is carried out. It is determined that in the eccentric gearing the use of satellite tooth profiles, formed on the base of extended epicycloid, makes it possible to decrease the rotation error. At that makes possible the operation of eccentric gearing in general manufacturing settings. Thus, the possibility of extending of eccentric gearing application fields to driving devices with higher requirements to overall sizes, mass, as well as cost, is come.

A gear meshing mathematical model was set up according to the tooth profile normal line method. The influence of the gear cutter-workpiece center distance on the tooth profile accuracy was discussed in spur gear cutting using a new type of gear cutter, with the center distance errors being ±0.005, ±0.01, ±0.02 and ±0.04 respectively. The results show that the machined tooth profile errors at the root circle is less than 1μm, while errors at other parts of the tooth profile are even smaller.

This paper presents a computer simulation showing how the gear contact ratio affects the dynamic load on a spur gear transmission. The contact ratio can be affected by the tooth addendum, the pressure angle, the tooth size (diametral pitch), and the center distance. The analysis presented in this paper was performed by using the NASA gear dynamics code DANST. In the analysis, the contact ratio was varied over the range 1.20 to 2.40 by changing the length of the tooth addendum. In order to simplify the analysis, other parameters related to contact ratio were held constant. The contact ratio was found to have a significant influence on gear dynamics. Over a wide range of operating speeds, a contact ratio close to 2.0 minimized dynamic load. For low-contact-ratio gears (contact ratio less than two), increasing the contact ratio reduced gear dynamic load. For high-contact-ratio gears (contact ratio equal to or greater than 2.0), the selection of contact ratio should take into consideration the intended operating speeds. In general, high-contact-ratio gears minimized dynamic load better than low-contact-ratio gears.

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.
