Abstract

The hypoid gear tooth contact pattern is usually adjusted in the central toe of the tooth surface, but when the transmission torque changes during operation, the gears and their mountings undergo very small displacement and the tooth contact pattern moves towards the toe or the heel of the tooth. Since there is yet no report that clarifies the change of the tooth contact pattern in such a case, we try to clarify the hypoid gear tooth contact analysis that applies high-order surfaces to the tooth surfaces to obtain an accurate tooth contact pattern. In the present report, the characteristics of the hypoid gear tooth contact pattern is described in detail using concrete computer simulation examples of the tooth Contact pattern.
