Face gear transmission is a kind of space-meshing mechanism that is mainly used in the field of aviation. Compared with traditional transmission, it has the advantages of stability, reliability, low noise, and strong carrying capacity. However, owing to its complex tooth surface, there are no means to accurately model the face gear. Likewise, research based on the geometry is difficult. Therefore, the tooth surface equation of the face gear is derived in this article based on the meshing theory. Based on the equations, the point cloud of the face gear tooth surface is calculated, the complex tooth surface is generated, and the face gear is accurately modeled. Moreover, taking tooth surface friction excitation into consideration, a multi-degree-of-freedom nonlinear dynamic model of face gear transmission system is established, using the adaptive variable step length Runge–Kutta method. As shown in the results, the bifurcation diagram, phase diagram, time history diagram, and Poincaré section diagram are combined to analyze the influence of tooth surface friction and meshing frequency on the dynamic characteristics of the system.

In order to improve the machining accuracy and production efficiency of face-gear, a method of face-gear generating hobbing by worm is provided in this paper. The principle of face-gear hobbing worm is analyzed, and the mathematical model of the worm is presented based on the principle and the theory of meshing. Taking the hobbing needs into account, the special machine tool is provided, and the movement control method of face-gear hobbing by the worm on the machine tool is proposed. The equation of face-gear tooth surface is calculated, and the 3-D model of face-gear is established based on CATIA software. To reduce the face-gear tooth profile errors induced by ratio errors, an error analysis model of face-gear hobbing is established. The experiment is carried out, and the completed specimen is detected by Coordinate Measuring Machining (CMM). The processing parameter is amended according to the tooth flank detection results, and the maximum normal deviation of the whole tooth surface of the face-gear specimen is improved from 243.2 µm to 61.0 µm. Experiment results demonstrate that the method of face-gear hobbing by worm is an effective approach to achieve the precision face-gear with high dimensional accuracy.

Abstract This paper presents the kinematic study of the face gear drive system. The study includes three different configurations which are: (1) the on-center orthogonal face gear drive, (2) the on-center non-orthogonal face gear drive, and (3) the offset orthogonal face gear drive. The mathematical description for the gear meshing and the resulting face gear tooth surface is developed. This paper also presents the criteria for detecting the limitation of the effective face width due to tooth pointing and undercutting. The technique presented is applied to develop a computer program. This design automation tool allows visualizing the gear meshing and tooth geometry of the face gear drive.

With the original worm grinding method to manufacture face-gear, the mathematical models of shaper, worm, and face-gear are established at the beginning. Subsequently, a problem of the original grinding method is illustrated that the working part of the face-gear tooth surface may not be covered completely. To overcome this problem, multistep grinding method for completely grinding the whole working part is proposed by studying contact lines of the tooth surface and singularities of the worm thread surface. The proposed method is verified in matlab with theoretical analysis. Finally, the simulations of the original method and the multistep method in the vericut software verify the feasibility and correctness of the proposed method. The study provides an effective and precise approach to grinding the face-gear.

The conventional tooth surface of a face gear is difficult to manufacture, and the cutter for the face gear cutting is not uniform even though the parameters of the pinion mating with the face gear slightly change. Based on the analysis of the geometry features of the tooth surface, a new developable ruled surface is defined as the tooth flank of the face gear, for which the most important geometry feature is that the flank could be represented by a family of straight lines, hence it could be generated by a straight-edged cutter. The mathematical models of the new ruled tooth surface, the cutter and the generation method are presented, the deviation between the ruled surface and the conventional surface, the correction of the ruled surface to reduce the deviation are investigated through numerical examples. The manufacturing process is simulated by VERICUT software, and the results demonstrate that even when the principle deviation is added to the machined deviation, the absolute deviation is on the micro-scale. The meshing and contact simulation shows that the new surface could obtain good meshing performance when the number of face gear teeth is greater than three times the number of pinion teeth. This research provides a new method for manufacturing face gears.

This article presents a sphere–face gear pair by substituting the convex spherical gear for the pinion of a conventional face gear pair. The sphere–face gear pair not only maintains the advantages of the face gear pair with a longitudinally modified pinion but also allows variable shaft angles or large axial misalignments. Meshing characteristics of the proposed gear pair are studied in this article. The mathematical models of the sphere–face gear pair are derived based on machining principles. The tooth contact analysis (TCA) and curvature interference check are conducted for the sphere–face gear pair with variable shaft angles. The loaded TCA is also implemented utilizing the finite element method. The results of numerical examples show that proposed gear pair has the following features. Geometrical transmission error of constant shaft angle or varying shaft angle is zero; contact points of the sphere–face gear set with variable shaft angle are located near the centre region of face gear tooth surface; there is no curvature interference in meshing; and transmission continuity of the gear pair can be guaranteed in meshing.

Tooth surface modifications are small, micron-level intentional deviations from perfect involute geometries of spur and helical gears. Such modifications are aimed at improving contact pressure distribution, while minimizing the motion transmission error to reduce noise excitations. In actual practice, optimal modification requirements vary with the operating torque level, misalignments, and manufacturing variance. However, most gear literature has been concerned with determining optimal flank form modifications at a single design point, represented by fixed, single load and misalignment values. A new approach to the design of tooth surface modifications is proposed to handle such conditions. The problem is formulated as a robust design optimization problem, and it is solved, in conjunction with an efficient gear contact solver (Load Distribution Program (LDP)), by a direct search, global optimization algorithm aimed at guaranteeing global optimality of the obtained microgeometry solutions. Several tooth surface modifications can be used as microgeometry design variables, including profile, lead, and bias modifications. Depending on the contact solver capabilities, multiple performance metrics can be considered. The proposed method includes the capability of simultaneously and robustly handling several conflicting design objectives. In the present paper, peak contact stress and loaded transmission error amplitude are used as objective functions (to be minimized). At the end, two example optimizations are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this study, a surface wear prediction model for helical gears pairs is employed to investigate the influence of tooth profile deviations in the form of intentional tooth profile modifications or manufacturing errors on gear tooth surface wear. The wear model combines a finite-element-based gear contact mechanics model that predicts contact pressures, a sliding distance computation algorithm, and Archard’s wear formulation to predict wear of the contacting tooth surfaces. Typical helical gear tooth modifications are parameterized by an involute crown, a lead crown, and an involute slope. The influence of these parameters on surface wear are studied within typical tolerance ranges achievable using hob/shave process. The results indicate that wear is related to the combined modification parameters of a gear pair rather than individual gear parameters. At the end, a design formula is proposed that relates the mismatch of contacting surface slopes to the maximum initial wear rate.
