Abstract

This work is a review of researches carried out by the authors on prototyping processes and testing of hyperboloid gears. These activities are preceded by modeling for synthesis and design of these gear sets. It contains also a description of the innovative and inventive activities of the authors over the years. The twenty-five years period of studying hyperboloid gear mechanisms with an exact linear contact between the active tooth surfaces is entirely subordinated to the transfer of the obtained scientific results into scientifically applied and applied ones, in order to create adequate innovative products. The time interval of the researches, done from 1980 to 1990, is divided into two parts: - till 1985, the actions are oriented into transforming a part of the obtained scientific - applied results into technological innovations in the field of high-reduction gear mechanisms; - the period 1985 -1990 is identified with attempts to implement these gear transmissions into various technological devices and transport machines. From a practical view point, the 1980-1990 interval covers all activities for elaboration of functional models of reductors and technological models of high-reduction gears of type Helicon. The time period after 1990 is characterized by the elaboration of three types of Helicon reductors.

Highlights

  • The process of Bulgaria's joining to the European Union is accompanied by a continuous and extreme increase in the importance of enhancing the competitiveness of the Bulgarian industry companies and their ability to withstand competitive pressure and economical factors

  • The implementation of scientific achievements and new technologies as well as the development of innovation potential are crucial for strengthening the Bulgarian manufacture and for increasing employment and achieving an economic growth [1]

  • In accordance with the objectives set in the Economic Reform Program accepted by the European Union (EU) in 2000, Lisbon, expanded in Gothenburg and improved in Stockholm and Barcelona, the actions of the countries, which are members of EU have to be focused on certain priority areas and the crucial importance between them has given to the promotion of the innovations

Summary

Introduction

The process of Bulgaria's joining to the European Union is accompanied by a continuous and extreme increase in the importance of enhancing the competitiveness of the Bulgarian industry companies and their ability to withstand competitive pressure and economical factors. In this regard, the implementation of scientific achievements and new technologies as well as the development of innovation potential are crucial for strengthening the Bulgarian manufacture and for increasing employment and achieving an economic growth [1]. The objectives and measures, endorsed by the national innovation strategies, are pursued through the studies (realized through the years) in the field of hyperboloid gear transmissions
