Analysis on Meshing Characteristics and Transmission Error of Elliptic Gears

الملخص EN

As an important parameter to distinguish noncircular gear from cylindrical gear, eccentricity is very important for the meshing characteristics and transmission error of noncircular gear.

In order to study the transmission characteristics of the elliptic gear, a pair of elliptic gear in the reversing device of a new type of drum pumping was taken as the research object.

Based on the analysis of the transmission pressure angle and instantaneous contact ratio of the elliptic gear, the eccentricity error was introduced into the analysis model of transmission error.

The influences of the eccentricity on the transmission pressure angle, instantaneous contact ratio, and transmission error were analyzed, and the analysis accuracy is verified by the finite element method.

The results show that the eccentricity has a great influence on the transmission pressure angle, instantaneous contact ratio, and transmission error of the elliptic gear, and the eccentricity error has a significant influence on the transmission error.

In order to ensure the normal meshing condition of the elliptic gear, the eccentricity should be less than 0.7071, and the maximum instantaneous contact ratio is 1.809.

The research results can provide some guidance for the following noncircular spur gear transmission test and transmission error research.
