Meshing Efficiency Analysis of Straight Spur Gear Pair

Article Preview

Abstract:

Due to shortage of energy, the meshing efficiency of gear train becomes an important factor of power system. This paper focuses on the meshing efficiency of straight spur gear pair. The analysis of gear meshing efficiency involves the involute theorem of gears, friction and lubrication, and other related issues. According to Buckingham’s research, the theoretical meshing efficiency equation of straight spur gear pair is proposed. One straight spur gear pair (15, 79) is proposed to be the example for analyzing meshing efficiencies at each rotation speed. The theoretical meshing efficiencies for the straight spur gear pair (15, 79) are between 98.36% ~ 99.79 %. Its best meshing efficiency occurs at pinion speed 600 rpm.
