5、SBN: 1-55589-862-91 Determining the Shaper Cut Helical Gear Fillet Profile By George Lian Amarillo Gear Company 1 Introduction Analytical methods for determining the gear fillet profile (trochoid) have been well documented. Khiralla 1 described methods for calculating fillet profile of hobbed and sh

6、aped spur gears. Colbourne 2 provided equations for calculating the trochoid of both involute and non-involute gears generated by rack or shaper tools. The MAAG Gear Handbook 3 also provided equations for calculating trochoid generated with rack type tools that have circular tool tips. Vijayakar, et

7、 al. 4 presented a method of determining spur gear tooth profile using an arbitrary rack. The above mentioned are only samples of many published works. However, the method for determining the trochoid of a helical gear generated with a shaper tool is not widely published. This paper presents an intu

8、itive algorithm where the fillet profile of a shaper tool generated external or internal helical gear can be calculated. A shaper tool generating a gear can be visualized as a gear set meshing with zero backlash. The algorithm in this paper is based on a shaper tool in tight mesh with a semi-finishe

9、d helical gear. The semi-finished gear geometry was used for calculation because the shaper tool, used as the semi-finishing tool, is usually the one that generates the trochoid. However, if the shaper cutter is the finishing tool, the algorithm presented will also work by letting the finishing stoc

10、k equal zero. The trochoid of a spur gear can also be calculated by letting the helix angle equal zero. The shaper tool used in this algorithm may have a different reference normal pressure angle than that of the gear. A necessary condition for a shaper tool to generate the correct involute profile

11、on a gear is that both the tool and the gear must have equal normal base pitch. This paper stipulates that the axis of the shaper tool and the gear are parallel, which is often true for gear shaping. Consequently, the shaper tool and the gear must also have an equal base helix angle. Although, the a

12、lgorithm is based on the shaper cutter as a generating tool, the presented method can also be used to calculate a trochoid generated with a hob or a rack type tool if the number of the shaper teeth is large (e.g. 10000). 2 Symbols and Convention The symbols are defined where first used. This paper t

13、ries to adhere to the following rules in subscript usage: Symbols related to tool geometry have subscript “0”; No subscript is used for symbols related to the gear; Subscript “n” is used for measurements in the normal plane; Subscript “r” is used for symbols related to the semi-finished gear Subscri

14、pt “g” is used for symbols related to the generating pitch circle When dual signs are used in an equation (e.g. ), the upper sign is for external gears and the lower one for internal gears. Non-italicized upper case symbols are used to designate points on the shaper tool, the gear, or other points o

15、f interest. Points are also represented as the coordinates (, )x y . The length of a vector (e.g. R ) is represented as R. 3 Coordinate System The reference position of a shaper tool generating a gear is depicted in Fig. 1, for external gear shaping, and Fig. 2, for internal. The following coordinat

16、e system and sign conventions are followed: Standard Cartesian coordinate system is used. The center of the shaper tool 0O is (0,0) . The reference position of the shaper tool is with one of its teeth aligned with the y-axis. The end of the shaper tooth points in the y direction. 2 rg0rgCgOGExternal

25、 shaper tool for gear semi-finishing usually has protuberance. It generates undercut on a gear, so that the finishing tool only needs to machine the involute profile of the gear. To obtain the designed amount of protuberance on a shaper tool, the tool tip is made tangent to the involute profile that

26、 is temporarily formed by increasing the shaper tooth thickness to include the protuberance (Fig. 3). The tangent point, common to the tool tip and the involute profile, will be referred to as the profile tangent point, 0P . When the temporarily formed involute profile is removed, the shaper tool wi

27、ll have the designed amount of protuberance. sb0_prrb0S0P0Tube of radius 0Involute profile including protuberanceCutter profileNormalplanviewPn0Pn0AView “A-A“S0y-axisrS0Transverseplan view0P0900P0ArP0P0P02 rb00invP0cosb0Fig. 3 Tool tip of a shaper tool The shaper tool tip is also made tangent to the

Since the systems of the equations are transcendental and cannot be solved directly, the Newtons method is used to calculate the roots for Eq.25-28. 4.3 Solving the System of Non-linear Equations for Center of Tool Tip For simpli
