Abstract
Theoretical and experimental investigations on parallel-axis gears with tubular meshing surfaces are performed in this study. Based on theory of conjugate curves, the parametric design for tubular tooth profiles is provided and solid models are established for motion simulation. Tubular meshing surfaces are evaluated according to geometric and meshing characteristics including undercutting condition, interference with engagement and curvature, calculation of sliding ratios, and successive meshing property. The meshing essence of tubular tooth surfaces is determined. The mechanics properties of tooth surfaces are analyzed using the finite element method. The contact stress, meshing law and deformation analysis of tooth surfaces are presented. The transmission efficiency experiment is based on the developed gear prototype, and a comparison of the prototype with an involute gear drive is provided. Further research on the dynamics analysis and key manufacturing technology will be conducted, and this gear drive is expected to exhibit excellent transmission performance.
