Modification of an Involute Gearing and Its Effect on a Loading Capacity
A modification of an involute gearing is presented by a modification of an involute and a longitudinal modification along the face width. In the contribution both of the modifications are presented and theoretical and practical methods for determination of their parameters are shown. Experimental methods of setting up of input data for design of modifications are brought in then. These data are prepared on the basis of measuring of deformations of gearwheels bodies, shafts and shafts supports. An attention is given to the influence on a size and position of a zone of contact of meshing teeth. A separate part deals with the appreciation of an influence of modification on a size of a noise and vibrations of involute gears. As far as a loading capacity of modified involute gearings, the attention is first given to the loading capacity in a contact stress between teeth faces. The comparison is made between loading capacity of an involute gearing with no modification and a gearing modified by various types of modifications. This comparison is made both by using a FEM and by experiment. Experiment is based on lifetime test of these gearing.
