Study on the compound transmission mechanism of the curve-face gear based on screw theory

摘要

The compound transmission mechanism of curve-face gear is a new type of gear transmission based on the cam mechanism and the curve-face gear pair. It combines the transmission characteristics of the cam mechanism and noncircular bevel gear. When the compound transmission mechanism of curve-face gear is engaged in the meshing transmission, the rotating center of the cylindrical gear is fixed and used as the driving wheel, and the curve-face gear can generate the helical motion around the axis. In this paper, the meshing characteristics and motion laws of the compound transmission mechanism of the curve-face gear are studied based on the theory of screw. Based on the meshing theory of gears, the coordinate system of conjugate surfaces is established, the basic meshing theory and equation are obtained. On this basis, combined with the principle of the cam, the transmission principle is analyzed by the screw theory. The tooth surface equation of the compound transmission mechanism of curve-face gear is deduced based on the meshing theory and the related knowledge of geometry. The motion law of the curve-face gear and the change of the motion law with the change of the basic parameters of the gear pair with different design parameters are calculated and analyzed. An experimental platform is built to verify the law of motion, and the experimental results are compared with the theoretical values. The correctness of the theoretical analysis is verified, which provides a new way for the research of the compound transmission mechanism of the curve-face gear.
