As the most important working area of gear, teeth play the role of transmitting load and power. Tooth line and tooth profile are the two main characteristics of the tooth surface, which affect the shape of the tooth surface, tooth meshing characteristics and contact characteristics. Taking the elliptical cylinder gear pair in the reversing device of a new type of drum pumping unit as the resear...

a practical application of the spherical involute surface to the forged straight bevel gears is provided and demonstrated in this work. conjugate (pure involute) theoretical surfaces are developed from the input design parameters. the surfaces are modified to suit the actual application (automotive differential). the unloaded (or low load) tooth contact analysis of modified surfaces is performe...

In order to study the dynamic meshing characteristics of the elliptic cylinder gear and obtain the meshing error of the gear transmission system, the two-dimensional static contact analysis of the gear tooth surface is carried out by using ANSYS software, and the key parts of the contact area of the tooth surface are determined. Then, the dynamic meshing model of the elliptic cylinder gear is e...

conclusions based on the clinical and radiographic examinations, implant-tooth approximation (less than 1 mm or direct contact) is not related to pulp vitality of the tooth. further studies with larger sample sizes are necessary to confirm the results of the study. results among the 31 assessed implants and the adjacent intact teeth, 13 implants had direct contact and 18 implants had proximity ...

The surface tooth wear which occurs at the gear contact region due to inadequate contact strength of the tooth is one of the predominant modes of gear failures. Currently, higher contact ratio spur gears are increasingly used in power transmission applications such as aircraft, wind turbine, automobiles and compact tracked vehicles due to their high load carrying capacity.  In this work, the di...

Gear’s normal contact stiffness played an important role in the mechanical equipment. In this paper, the M-B fractal model is modified and the contact surface coefficient is put forward to set up the fractal model, considering the influence of friction, which could be used to calculate accurately the involute arc cylindrical gears’ normal contact stiffness based on the fractal theory and Hertz ...
