Abstract
The topography of gear meshing interfaces is one of the key factors affecting the dynamic characteristics of the gear transmission system. In order to obtain the contact characteristics of meshing gear pair with different surface micro-topographies, an interface feature model and a tribo-dynamics coupling model for the gear system are proposed in this paper. The effects of the gear tooth surface micro-topography on the oil film distribution, contact damping and friction are considered. The time-varying meshing stiffness and the static transmission error are included in the abovementioned models. An exemplary gear pair is analyzed using the proposed models to investigate the influence of the surface micro-topography on the dynamic characteristics of gear system under different micro-topographies and input torque conditions. Simulation results show that the effects of gear tooth micro-topography on the gear dynamic responses (including the friction and the vicious damping at the gear meshing interface and the vibration in the direction of offline of action) are highly dependent on the regularity of tooth surface. The vibration and noise can be significantly controlled by manufacturing a regular gear tooth profiles instead of random profiles.
