Generation of Spiral Bevel Gears with Zero Kinematical Errors and Computer Aided Tooth Contact Analysis

摘要

Kinematic errors in spiral bevel gears are a major source of noise and vibrations in transmissions. A method for the generation of Gleason's spiral bevel gears which provides conjugated gear tooth surfaces and an improved bearing contact was developed. A computer program for the simulation of meshing, misalignment, and bearing contact was written.
