Abstract
The tooth root crack fault is a common fault type of the spiral bevel gear pair (SBGP). Affected by the strong bearing capacity, the early crack fault of the SBGP cannot be found in time. In this study, a finite element (FE) model of the SBGP is established and assembled through the tooth contact analysis. The maximum tooth root stress is analyzed considering the variation of assembly errors. Meanwhile, this study simulates the tooth root crack fault of the bevel pinion with different crack degrees. The initial position of the crack is located where the maximum tooth root stress appears. The time-varying mesh stiffness (TVMS) of the SBGP considering different degrees of the pinion tooth root crack fault is obtained. The TVMS and the non-load transmission error are brought into a hybrid FE dynamic model, and steady responses are solved. Based on this, the sensitivities of various statistical indicators for identifying the tooth root crack fault of SBGP under the influence of assembly errors are verified. This paper can provide the necessary theoretical basis for the analysis and diagnosis of tooth root crack faults in the SBGP transmission system.
