Simulation and 3D-Solid Modeling of Skew Bevel Gear

Abstract:

In this paper, the basic concept and specific steps of establishing skew bevel gears mathematical model using conjugate meshing principle was introduced. Numerical value counting function of MATLAB was used to collect coordinate of tooth surface grid point, and under the Pro/E environment, data document of coordinate created by MATLAB was imported to establish tooth surface modeling , relying on the powerful function of complicated curve modelling, 3D solid modelling of gear was completed. The results via motion analysis kinematics analysis and interference inspecting under assembling condition show the accuracy of the design ,which supports further design, analysis and manufacture.
