Abstract A computer aided method of analysis of the web portion of a spur gear is presented. The cyclic symmetric concept is used for solving the problem of the steady state stress analysis (asymmetric loading) when the gear is subjected to a concentrated edge load due to the mating tooth. The effect of cut-outs in the web is studied. The response of the web to a moving load is investigated. The ratio of the forcing frequency to the fundamental frequency of the gear wheel being small, the moving load is approximated as a static load acting at different points. The influence of radial ribs on the behaviour of the gear is also studied.

Gear rolling is a manufacturing technique for gears with many advantages like reduced material consumption, reduced scrap generation, fast cycle times, good surface quality and improved final properties of the gear wheels compared to conventional production technology based on machining. In order to make use of all these advantages it is desired to reach the final shape of the gear wheel already after rolling. This means that post treatments like grinding should be avoided. This puts high requirements on the shape accuracy after gear rolling. In this paper it was studied if finite element simulation could be used to evaluate the shape accuracy after gear rolling. The measurement of shape accuracy of gear wheels is specified in standards like ISO1328-1. The allowed deviations from nominal shape are often of the order of 10-30 μm for very good qualities. So if such evaluation shall be possible from a finite element simulation the accuracy must be of the same order. In order to have sufficient accuracy of the finite element simulation 2D simulations were performed on a spur gear. The FE code DEFORM was utilized. The shape accuracy was evaluated for gear rolling of two cases. One case had gears with the module of 1 mm. The other case involved gears with a significantly larger module of 4 mm. This was an interesting case since it is known that it is more difficult to roll the gear with good accuracy in large modules.

Abstract A computer aided analysis of a heavy duty fabricated gear wheel is presented. The concept of CYCLIC SYMMETRY and the SKYLINE APPROACH are exploited to reduce the computer memory and time. Static and Eigen value analyses are conducted. This is followed by a Quasi Static analysis which gives an idea of the Dynamic behaviour of the gear wheel. The emphasis has been on the use of the PC for solving this industrial problem.

Purpose The virtual display of 3D garment is one of the most important features in a computer-aided garment design system. The purpose of this paper is to present a novel web-based 3D virtual display framework for the online design of warp-knitted seamless garment using the latest WebGL and HTML5 technologies. Design/methodology/approach Based on the feature-based parametric 3D human body model, the 3D model of skin-tight warp-knitted seamless garment is established using the geometric modeling method. By applying plane parameterization technology, the 3D garment model is then projected into corresponding 2D prototype pattern and a texture-mapping relationship is obtained. Finally, an online 3D virtual display application framework for warp-knitted seamless garment is implemented on modern WebGL-enabled web browsers using the latest WebGL and HTML5 technologies, which allow garment designers to globally access without installing any additional software or plugin. Findings Based on the 2D/3D model of warp-knitted seamless garment, an online 3D virtual display application running on modern WebGL-enabled web browser is implemented using the latest Javascript, WebGL and HTML5 technologies, which is proven to be an effective way for building the web-based 3D garment CAD systems. Originality/value This paper provides a parametric design method for warp-knitted seamless garment 2D/3D model, and web-based online virtual display of 3D warp-knitted seamless garment is implemented for the first time, which establishes the foundation for the web-based online computer-aided warp-knitted seamless garment design system.

Предлагается краткий обзор промышленного производства червячных фрез. Показано, что повышение качества и производительности изготовления зубчатых колес является необходимым условием снижения себестоимости и расширения объемов производства зубчатых колес на отечественных предприятиях. Главным требованием, предъявляемым к зубьям данной фрезы, является то, чтобы в результате заточки по передней поверхности, которая лежит в осевой плоскости фрезы, профиль зубьев сохранялся до почти полного их износа. Поэтому особое внимание уделяется выбору кривой затылования с учётом целого ряда факторов, способствующих совершенствованию процесса обработки. Отмечено, что затылование имеет ряд преимуществ, в сравнении с острой заточкой фрез. Изложен новый подход к проектированию рабочей оснастки для обработки малых колес циклоидной передачи и исследованы теоретически допустимые интервалы изменения задних углов при затыловании. Установлено, что несмотря на преимущества циклоидальной фрезы перед другими типами затылованных фрез в скорости и точности обработки, она имеет один недостаток - довольно малый промежуток применимости на дуге циклоиды. На основе существующих подходов разработан вариант затылования зубьев червячной фрезы по циклоиде The article provides an overview of the industrial production of hob cutters. We show that improving the quality and productivity of gear wheel manufacturing is a necessary condition for reducing the cost and expanding the production of gear wheels at domestic enterprises. The main requirement for the teeth of this cutter is that, as a result of sharpening on the front surface, which lies in the axial plane of the cutter, the profile of the teeth remains sharp until they are almost completely worn out. Therefore, we paid special attention to the choice of the relief curve, taking into account a number of factors that contribute to the improvement of the processing process. We note that relief has a number of advantages in comparison with sharpening of cutters. We give a new approach to the design of working equipment for processing small cycloidal wheels and investigate the theoretically permissible intervals of variation of the rear angles during relief. We established that despite the advantages of a cycloidal cutter over other types of undercut cutters in terms of speed and machining accuracy, it has one drawback - a rather small range of applicability on the cycloid arc. On the basis of existing approaches, we developed a variant of the relief of the teeth of the worm cutter along the cycloid

One way to achieve lightweight and lubricant-free drive train is, among others, to convert conventional steel to polymer composite materials. This paper describes a part of this endeavor by taking a spur gear pair as a study object. One of the steel gear wheel is replaced with three different materials including Victrex PEEK 650G, Victrex PEEK 650CA30 and Luvocom PEEK 1105-8165 while keeping the gear geometry unchanged. Mechanical stresses and thermal properties are two major criteria for material selection at this stage. Therefore carbon fiber filled PEEK (Victrex PEEK 650CA30) and PEEK filled with thermal conductive minerals (Luvocom 1105-8165) are chosen to benchmark each of the criterion. The evaluation is done by modeling the gear mesh and analyzing the contact forces and heat generated in the gear tooth. The results show surface temperature on the tooth flanks, root tensional stress and contact pressure during the tooth mesh. The work suggests a guideline of materials selection. Depending on actual application a compromisation between mechanical and thermal properties often needs to be considered within the tolerance boundary in order to obtain optimized results. This work only deals with material selection. Gear design such as optimization of tooth geometry for polymer gears is out of the scope of this study and will not be discussed.
