Fault Characteristics Analysis of Planetary Gear of Helicopter Main Reducer

Abstract

According to the characteristics of the large transmission ratio of the helicopter main reducer in the future, the research on the characteristic distribution of the planetary gear train of the helicopter main reducer is carried out. Because of the characteristics that the heavy load condition in helicopter main reducer’s running and the changeable running state and complex and harsh climatic conditions and the increasing heat of the flow field in the reducer, by the way, the large transmission ratio increases the uncertainty of the planetary gear train operation analysis at the same time, the probability of causing a failure is greater; Especially the complex and variable structure of the helicopter which has large transmission ratio main reducer makes the analysis difficulty further. For ensuring the safety and enhancing the reliability of the helicopter, this paper make a comparative analysis of the time domain characteristics of the state signals under the multi-operating condition between the normal planetary gear and planetary gears with different degrees of failure, to explore the distribution regularity of the fault characteristics of the helicopter main reducer, so as to realize the research on fault diagnosis of helicopter large transmission ratio planetary gear.
