Abstract

The aim of this work is to create a three-dimensional model of a new speed change control device using an engineering CAD system Solidworks. In particular, the article describes the methods of computer construction of a three-dimensional model of a rotary stopper in the form of a closed-loop hydraulic system of the device for smooth control of speed changes through a gear differential. The control link can be either a ring gear, or a carrier, or a sun gear. Ways of creating new parts of the device, use of elements from standard libraries and coordination of their dimensions in assembly have been considered. The ability to parameterize the dimensions allows you to automate the creation of both a single part and the whole device of a particular design, based on the specified source data. The application of special meshes for modeling movable and fixed joints allows you to correctly place the parts, control the correctness of their assembly, and then conduct kinematic and power studies of the device, animate its elements in motion. It has been concluded that the use of computer three-dimensional modeling in the design of such stoppers allows: at the initial stage of design to get a visual idea of the stopper of rotational motion; use a computer to view the created model from any point; easy to edit three-dimensional models, i.e. make the necessary changes; achieve great savings in time and design costs; get a large number of possible design solutions that need to be analyzed in detail and in depth to choose the rational, i.e. the best fit. The created model of the stopper of rotational movement allows to choose the optimal place of its installation in a gear differential of the device of speed change from the point of view of use of the minimum sizes and volume. Based on this, computer simulation must precede design. Keywords: three-dimensional modeling; rotary stopper; closed-loop hydraulic system; gear differential
