10、e to their high efficiency, bevel gear sets arewidely used in industry to transmit torque, generatehigh rotational speeds and change rotation direc-tions. Mostly studies on bevel gear dynamics arebased on experiments or simple formulations con-sideringonlythetorsionalvibrations. Inthispaperaprecise

11、dynamic simulation model of bevel gearpairs is developed. The method combines a finiteelement based tooth contact approach with a multibody dynamic simulation to provide a more accu-rateandcomprehensiveanalysisoftheexcitationinthe tooth mesh. The tooth mesh is modelled as aspring-damper set. The spr

12、ing-damper set is ableto consider all six degrees of freedom. The varyingcharacteristic mesh forces of the spring and thedamper are calculated using a detailed, finite ele-ment based tooth contact analysis. The forces aremultidimensional functions of the rotational trans-mission error under load, th

The considered excitations in thetooth mesh are transmission errors due to profiledeviations, the changing stiffness of the meshingteethasthenumberofteethincontactchangesandthevaryingslidingfriction. Finally,a

14、basictransmis-sion with a bevel gear pair is analyzed for differentoperating speeds.Excitation mechanisms in the tooth meshThemainsource forthe dynamicexcitation ofbevelgears is the tooth mesh 1. In the tooth contact dif-ferent excitation mechanisms are combined to acomplexresultingexcitation. Theth

15、reemostsignifi-cant terms are the unloaded transmission error, thechangingstiffnessofthemeshingteethandthepre-mature tooth contact, Figure 1.The load-free transmission error is caused by geardeviations which lead to a path excitation 3. Themost important gear deviations influencing theexcitation beh

16、aviour under load-free operatingcondition are pitch, flank and profile variations 4,5, 6. But path excitations can also be caused bydevations of 3rd order, as e.g., generated cutdeviationsandevenof4thorder,ase.g.,roughnessdescribing tooth flank surface structures 7. Alldeviations lead to changing op

17、erating conditions,i.e., changing rotational speeds and different loadcarrying torques. In numerous practical tests it isshown that for operation conditions of low specificloads deviations have the main influence on theexcitation in the tooth mesh and on the noise.Figure 1. Excitation mechanisms 22T

18、he second excitation mechanism in the toothcontact results from changing stiffness of themeshing teeth as the number of teeth in contactchanges. This mechanism named as parametricexcitationcausesadditionalvibrations foroperationconditions under load. The domination of theparametric excitation increa

19、ses by higher loadcarrying torques 8.A further excitation mechanism in the tooth meshcan be traced back to the premature tooth contact,9. Under loaded operating conditions the teethand the gear body are deformed. This leads todisturbed kinematic contact conditions in the toothmesh. Consequently, the

20、 first tooth contact occursearlier than under undisturbed conditions and thedriving tooth flank penetrates theoretical the driventooth flank. Out of this results a tooth impact and aforce impulse is generated combined with anadditional sound stimulation.Fundamental procedureAt first, themanufactured

Based on the geometries of the pinion and thegear resulting from the manufacturing process FEmodels are

23、 generated in the next step.To reach an exact reproduction of gear propertiestheuseofahigh-gradecomputationalapproach,asthe Finite Element Analysis (FEA), is necessary.But the formulation of the contact conditions isproblematic in the Finite Element Analysis, since itis a non-linear problem. FEA is

24、suitable for solvingthe stiffness of gears but the modelling of the toothcontact is a very difficult task. Hence an FE basedtooth contact analysis is used. This FE basedapproach uses the structure properties of an FEmodel and combines them with a simplemathematical spring model to examine the toothc

An influence number ijdetermines the displacement of a point j accordingto a unit force F = 1 N on point i. The influencenumbers are calculated by the Finite Eleme

26、nt Anal-ysis. After the influence numbers are known toconsider the stiffness behavior of the gears thetooth mesh can be examined. The FE based toothcontact analysis determines the path excitationcaused by flank deviations and the parametricexcitation caused by elastical deformations. Bothtypesofdevi

For the toothcontact the reason of the deviation regarding to therotational transmission error isnt relevant. There-fore the comp

The multidime

Mechanical model of the tooth meshA very simplified multi-body simulation model withrigid bodies of a bevel gear transmission has beendeveloped in MSC.ADAMS, Figure 6.

The gear and the pinion of thebevel gear set are connected with the developedmodel of the tooth mesh in for

This simplified approach issuitable for an evaluation of the model behaviour.Figure 6. MBS-Model with rigid bodie

In the leftpartofthepicturethecomputedtransmissionerrorsfor a speed of 500 min- 1and the right part

46、 the com-puted transmission errors for a imaginary speed of50000 min- 1can be seen. The driving torque wasset to a constant rate of Mdriven= 1200 Nm. For asimplification of themodel thedamping wasset toaconstant value. For both speeds the gears are aswell excited by the path excitation TELfdue to th

47、egeometrical conditions, as by the time variant stiff-ness under load.At slow rotation speeds the resulting tooth springdeformationovertimeofthedeviation freegear atastandard force is the reciprocal value of the toothmesh stiffness and does therefore correspond tothe loaded transmission error TEuL.

48、At increasingrotation speeds dynamical effects begin to over-weight this behavior. This leads to the resultingtransmission error at the undercritical speed of500 min- 1. In the overcritical range of the rotationspeed (n = 50000 min- 1) the gears are not able tofollow the excitation due to the varyin

49、g stiffness be-causeoftheirmassinertia. Therefore nooscillationis anymore superimposed to the rotation of thegears. The resulting transmission error is aconstant value at these speeds and the additionalloads for the tooth mesh can be calculated with theamplitude of the load free and the loaded transmis-sion error.IntheupperpartofFigure8thecoursesof thetoothmeshtorqueatarotationspeedof500 min- 1andof50000min- 1aredisplayed.
