Abstract
The tooth profile crowning modification was applied onto paired gears for reducing the noise of an electric vehicle reducer. The simulated gear contact spots are compared before and after modification, and are validated by a contact spot experiment. Based on the rigid-flexible coupling model of the gear transmission system, the time-varying meshing stiffness, time-varying meshing force, and the vibration and noise of the gear pairs with different modified gears obtained by simulating calculation are analyzed. The results showed that the selection of modified gear has a great influence on the modification effect. In the way of tooth profile crowning, it is not advisable to modify the pinion independently, as it may increase the frequency and degree of meshing impact between the helical gear pair, making the transmission become less smooth; while modifying the wheel and pinion at the same time can effectively reduce the time-varying meshing stiffness and force, and the vibration and noise. Also, the optimized gear modification scheme is verified by the noise test.
