This paper is devoted to a phenomenon known as corner contact, or contact outside the normal path of contact, which can occur in spur and helical gear transmission systems under certain conditions. In this case, a change in position of the driven gear with respect to its theoretical position takes place, thus inducing a transmission error referred to here as the transmission error outside the normal path of contact (TEo.p.c). The paper deals with spur gears only, but the results are directly applicable to helical gears. It systematizes previous knowledge on this subject, suggests some further developments of the theory and introduces the novel phenomenon of top contact. The theoretical results are compared with experimental measurements using a single flank tester and a back-to-back dynamic test rig for spur and helical gears, and they are in good agreement. Convenient approximate equations for calculation of TEo.p.c suggested here are important for analysis of experimental data collected in the form of Harris maps. This will make possible the calculation of tooth stiffness values needed for use in theoretical models for spur and helical gear transmission systems.

Integrated Error

A theoretical method is proposed in this paper to calculate the unit curve of gear integrated error (GIE). The calculated GIE unit curve includes the quasi-static transmission error (TE) curves of the approach stage, the involute stage, and the recession stage of the ZI worm and helical gear transmission. The misalignments between the two axes of the worm and gear, as well as the modifications or errors of the tooth flanks of the gear, are considered in the procedure of calculation. Optimization algorithm is introduced to replace the solving of implicit differential equations of the conventional tooth contact analysis (TCA) method. It is proved that the proposed method is clearer and more convenient than the conventional TCA methods in calculating the GIE unit curve. The correctness and merits of the proposed method are verified by two experiments.

The Impact

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.

Abstract In this paper, the dynamic behavior of a multi-mesh helical gear train is studied. The gear train consists of three helical gears, with one of the gears in mesh with the other two. An 18-degree-of-freedom dynamic model which includes transverse, torsional, axial and rotational (rocking) motions of the flexibly mounted gears is developed. Two different loading conditions are identified. For case I, the system is driven by the gear in the middle, and for case II, the system is driven by one of the gears at either end of the gear train. Gear mesh phases under each loading condition are determined. The natural modes are predicted, and effects of the helix angle and the loading condition on the natural modes are explained. The forced response, which includes dynamic mesh and bearing forces, due to the static transmission error excitation is found. Effects of loading conditions and asymmetric positioning on the response are also explored. The results suggest that the dynamic forces are lower if the number of teeth of the gear in the middle is (i) an odd number for case I type loading, and (ii) an even number for case II type loading.

Grey Classification is a method which can judge and analyse the matters in the Grey System. It is more reasonable and practical than other Optimal Design. By study of Grey Classification and the traditional method of multi-objective optimal design of helical gear transmission, we found out the most satisfied results.
