Algorithms for Noncircular Gear Pitch Curves Generation

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper resumes the traditional hypotheses for the noncircular mating centrodes design, based on the definition of i) the driving centrode geometry ii) the transmission ratio variation and iii) the rotational motion of the driven centrode. Each procedure is transferred within the gear theory and developed considering both specific gear data, such as gear modulus, gear number of teeth and gear number of rotations during a rotational period. Original codes are developed in Php amd MyQSL to illustrate gears conjugate pitch curves geometry and their kinematics for external rolling.
