Study on High-Order Elliptical Gear Parametric Design, Automatic Modeling and Motion Simulation

摘要

In this paper, the high-order elliptical gear design principle and methods were studied based on Solidworks API to accomplish high-order elliptical gear parametrical design, machining simulation and automatic modeling. Elliptical gear pair simulation was carried out for verification. The high-order elliptical gear modeling method proposed was to use gear hob type of envelope processing method with the advantages of being able to process concaved pitch curve of high-order elliptical gear. The idea of this design process can also be extended to other types of non-circular gear design and modeling.
