An algorithm for synthesis of spiral bevel gear transmissions with a small shaft angle is presented. The algorithm of synthesis provides machine-tool settings with account of design limits for majority of gear generating machines. The proposed algorithm makes it possible to decrease the dimensions of machines that are used for gear and pinion tooth generation. The computer program of synthesis is developed that is based on described algorithm. Recommendations on selection of proper synthesis parameters are presented. An example of synthesis and analysis of a transmission is considered.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
