Abstract
The correlation between the transmission error of gears and some factors which are usually considered to express characteristics of a tooth contact pattern, such as areal percentage and total length of simultaneous contact lines, is examined, but very poor correlation is found. A new method of estimating the transmission error from a tooth contact pattern is introduced. This is a method of supposing a triangular shape for the composite error on the actual contact line, which results in the ridge figure of the composite error surface as a function of the tooth contact pattern. The transmission error is derived as a function of this ridge figure. The results estimated by this method showed fairly good correlation with the actual transmission error, especially for a low transmitting load. Based on this method, an index value to estimate the amplitude of transmission error of a gear pair by the observation of tooth contact pattern is also introduced.
