Meshing Stiffness Parametric Vibration of Coaxial Contrarotating Encased Differential Gear Train

摘要

Planetary gears are widely used in mechanical transmission systems, but the vibration and noise affect their reliability and life. In this paper, the torsional dynamic model of an encased differential planetary gear with coaxial contrarotating outputs considering the time-varying meshing stiffness, damping, and phase difference of all gear pairs is established. By solving the equations of the derived system, three types of natural frequencies with different multiplicities of the system are obtained. The multiscale method is used to study the parametric vibration stability caused by the time-varying meshing stiffness, and the results are verified by numerical simulation. The dynamic characteristics of elastic meshing force are analyzed from time domain and frequency domain. The variation of the dynamic load factor of each gear pair with input speed and the relationship between its peak position and the natural frequency of the derived system are discussed. The results show that there is an unequal coupling phenomenon of meshing frequency between the meshing forces of different planetary sets. In the absence of external excitation, the meshing stiffness parameters not only excite the main resonance response of the system but also cause superharmonic resonance, subharmonic resonance, and combined resonance.
