For the purposes of spiral bevel gears of cycloid gear is more and more extensive, the research on the reverse are rare phenomenon, this paper puts forward a reverse method: It’s based on three coordinates measuring system for prolate epicycloids’ bevel gear teeth profile. This method according to the forming principle of the spiral bevel gear tooth profile, with the back cone expanding the measured data of a group of good quality after simple processing, according to the involutes’ parameter equation for theoretical analysis, reverse out the base circle radius and modulus, make the bevel gear tooth profiles to reverse.

Undercutting is a serious problem in designing spiral bevel gears with small numbers of teeth. Conditions of undercutting for spiral bevel gears vary with the manufacturing methods. Based on the theory of gearing [1], the tooth geometry of the Gleason type circular-cut spiral bevel gear is mathematically modeled. The sufficient and necessary conditions for the existence and regularity of the generated gear tooth surfaces are investigated. The conditions of undercutting for a circular-cut spiral bevel gear are defined by the sufficient conditions of the regular gear tooth surface. The derived undercutting equations can be applicable for checking the undercutting conditions of spiral bevel gears manufactured by the Gleason Duplex Method, Helical Duplex Method, Fixed Setting Method, and Modified Roll Method. An example is included to illustrate the application of the proposed undercut checking equations.

The design of spiral bevel gears still remains complex since tooth geometry and the resulting kinematics performance stem directly from the manufacturing process. Spiral bevel gear manufacture owes most to the works of Gleason and Klingelnberg. However, recent advances in milling machine technology and CAM (Computer Aided Manufacturing) make it possible to manufacture good quality spiral bevel gears on a standard 5-axis milling machine. This paper describes the CAD definition and manufacturing of spiral bevel gear tooth surfaces. Process performance is assessed by comparing the resulting surfaces after machining with the pre-defined CAD surfaces. Using this manufacturing process allows to propose new type of geometry. This one is more theoretical and, in some respects, easier to design than the standard spiral bevel gear as it enables simpler mesh optimization. The latter can be achieved by using the model of meshing under load recalled in this paper.

One of the main problems with the operation of spiral bevel gears is related to very severe conditions in the contact of the meshing teeth; therefore, lubrication is very difficult, which increases the risk of scuffing occurrence. One of the ways to achieve better scuffing resistance is by the deposition of a low-friction coating on the bevel gears teeth. Gear scuffing tests were performed using a bevel gear test rig designed and manufactured at ITeE-PIB. The authorial bevel gear scuffing test was performed. Specially designed, spiral bevel gears were used for testing. Two material combinations were tested: uncoated pinion - coated wheel and, for reference, both gears without coatings. The a-C:H:W (trade name WC/C) coating of DLC type was deposited on the wheel teeth. A mineral, automotive gear oil of API GL-5 performance level was used for lubrication. It is shown that the resistance to scuffing may be significantly improved when the a-C:H:W coating is deposited on the spiral bevel gear teeth.

In order to achieve the NC machining to the equal base circle bevel gear with a standard cutter, to plan the machining path efficiently and to predict machining interference, based on the equal base circle bevel gear theory, the machining coordinate system for the bevel gear was established, according to gear tooth surface equations of the bevel gears, the tooth surface discretization function was derived, and through the calculation and get the discrete points, the gear surface was modeled in the software UG, and then the planning of the machining path, automatic programming and simulation processing were done. At last, simulation processing, analysis and comparison to the gear surface were carried on with the software VERICUT, improved that the gear surface modeling and NC machining methods were correct and feasible.

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.

New geometry of generating spiral bevel gear is proposed. The key idea of the new proposed geometry is that the gear tooth surface geometry can be investigated in a developed curved surface based on the planar engagement principle. It is proved that the profile curve on the back of generating cone surface is a conical involute curve. The equations of generated gear tooth surface are achieved by the conical involute curve sweeping along the tooth trace of gear. The obtained equations are explicit and independent of the machine-tool settings. This differs from previous studies. The developed theory is illustrated with numerical examples to compare with the previous method, the comparison approves that the method is possible in this way. The new method indicates that there are new solutions to the design the production of spiral bevel gear.

High-speed heavy-load spiral bevel gears put forward high requirement for flexural strength; shot peening is a technique that greatly improves the bending fatigue strength of gears. During shot peening, a large number of fine pellets bombard the surface of the metal target material at very high speeds and let the target material undergo plastic deformation, at the same time strengthening layer is produced. Spiral bevel gear as the object of being bombarded inevitably brought the tooth surface micro-morphology changes. In this article, we aim to reveal the effect of microtopography of tooth shot peening on gear lubrication in spiral bevel gear, try to establish a reasonable description of the microscopic morphology for tooth surface by shot peening, to reveal the lubrication characteristics of spiral bevel gears after shot peening treatment based on the lubrication theory, and do comparative research on the surface lubrication characteristics of a variety of microstructures.

In this paper, an active design method of meshing line for a spiral bevel gear mechanism with nonrelative sliding is presented. First, the general meshing line equations for a nonrelative sliding transmission mechanism between two orthogonal axes are proposed based on the active design parameters. Then, parametric equations for contact curves on the drive and driven spiral bevel gears are deduced by coordinate transformation of the meshing line equations. Further to this, parametric equations for the tooth surface of each bevel gear are derived according to the conical spiral motion of a generatrix circle along the calculated contact curves. Finally, a set of numerical examples is presented based on two types of motion equation of the meshing points. Material prototypes are fabricated and experimentally tested to validate the kinematic performance of the functionally designed spiral bevel gear set.
