Analysis and experimental study of cycloid gear form grinding temperature field

摘要

Form grinding is the finishing process of the cycloid gear of RV reducer. In order to avoid the tooth surface burn of the cycloid gear during the grinding process and improve the grinding efficiency, the heat distribution ratio and the convection heat dissipation coefficient during the grinding process are calculated. The computer simulation software ANSYS 17.0 is used to calculate the instantaneous temperature field of the tooth surface during the grinding process of the cycloid gear. The distribution of the instantaneous temperature field of the tooth surface along the axial of the gear is obtained. According to the characteristics of the YK7350B gear grinding machine, the grinding process parameters is reasonably selected, and the grinding experiment is carried out. The metallographic structure of the burned section of the experimental part was observed by the ProgRes C5 metallographic measuring instrument to verify the simulation results. The research is beneficial to predict the temperature field distribution of the tooth surface of the cycloid gear and select the grinding process parameters reasonably.
