Developing Solid Model of Three-Dimensional Modified Gear Profile of Bevel-Cylindrical Precessional Gearing

Abstract

A method of modeling gears of bevel-cylindrical precessional gearing using computing equipment is proposed. Computerized «through-designing» approach is applied for designing and engineering of bevel-cylindrical precessional gearing. The approach is based on development of solid models and usage of calculation means in order to substantiate the accepted solutions. The paper shows insufficiency of the applied calculation means and methods for structurally complicated items in order to provide them the required efficiency in subsequent operation. A computer model for gear profile of bevel-cylindrical precessional gearing has been developed.
