Abstract

The instantaneous dynamic contact state analysis is carried out to reveal the process of scuffing failure of the gear tooth pair. A stick-slip dynamic model of a two-gear set is proposed and the coupling effects of time-varying mesh stiffness, tooth separations, friction between the gear teeth surfaces, and potential stick-slip are considered. Dynamic analysis shows that stick contact is an important source of tooth scuffing failure. Additionally, stick contact dramatically increases the vibration amplitudes and causes chaos. Parametric studies show that heavy load and rough tooth surfaces increase the probability of sticking and increase the time of stick state over a single mesh period. This study provides a design guard for avoiding scuffing failure and improving the reliability of gear transmission.
