A Design on the Bevel Gear with Circular-Tooth Profiles for Manufacturing

The bevel gears have been widely used for the intersected-axial transmission system for a long time. But mostly them are limited in the category of involute tooth profiles. It is believed that bevel gears with circular-arc tooth profile, similar to the Wildhaber-Novikov circular-arc helical gears, will improve the load capacity of the gear set. The bevel gears with circular-arc tooth profiles was firstly proposed by Kuo and Tsai in 2001. Although these new type of bevel gears can increase the load capacity of transmission, the expensive manufacturing process is still the problem.
In this paper, the design parameters of bevel gear with circular-arc profiles developed by Kuo and Tsai are modified. Bevel gear set with spiral point contact path is developed. This improvement makes it possible to manufacturing the newly developed bevel gears in just a simple milling or/and grinding process with circular cutting edges. The manufacturing process is then cost down quit a lot. A method for checking the gear interference is also proposed.
Finally, the 3D solid models of the bevel gear with circular-arc tooth profiles as well as the grinding wheel are constructed by using the computer software ¡§Pro/E¡¨. It is believed that the mathematical models and the design method developed in the thesis will provide a useful foundation for the further studies.
