Abstract

The meshing stiffness and system dynamic characteristics caused by gear wear fault are studied. Firstly, potential energy method was used to model and solve the meshing stiffness of gears and the effect of wear on the meshing stiffness and static transfer error was analyzed. A 6-dof spur gear dynamics model was established considering various nonlinear factors, and the dynamic responses of the spur gear system under various wear degrees were analyzed by using time domain, spectrum, phase plane, and Poincare mapping. Finally, the visual test platform of the gear box is built, and the wear condition and dynamic response of the gear box under different wear cycles are analyzed. Results show that the meshing stiffness of gear decreases due to wear, and the meshing stiffness of double tooth decreases more than that of single tooth. In addition, the static transmission errors caused by wear changes periodically with meshing frequency. Wear causes the vibration response of gear system to become complex gradually, and the nonlinear of the system is enhanced, which changes from single period motion to quasi period motion. Results can provide theoretical support for gear wear reduction, life extension, vibration reduction, and noise reduction and lubrication improvement.
