[0084] So, It can be represented as .
[0085] Furthermore, based on the static coordinate system S s0 Moving coordinate system S s static coordinate system S 20 The transformation relationship of the moving coordinate system S2 and the determination of the tooth surface equation of the driving gear specifically include:

[0113] Substituting equations (5) and (17) into equation (18), we obtain the final tooth surface equation of the driven gear as follows:
[0114] (19).
[0115] Of course, in practice, it is also necessary to first determine the basic parameters of the gear pair, including the number of teeth, tooth width, module, pitch circle pressure angle, addendum coefficient, tooth profile center offset, and radius of the parabola of the tooth profile of the driving gear, as well as the number of teeth, outer radius, and addendum coefficient of the face gear, etc. These parameters are substituted into the equation to determine the final tooth surface structure. Through this invention, the tooth surface equation of the face gear is determined by combining the parabola tooth profile of the driving gear and the parabola tooth profile of the face gear. The curvature stability of the parabola tooth profile makes the curvature change of the face gear tooth profile gradual, thus approaching a surface contact state in both the tooth height and tooth width directions. It effectively reduces tooth surface contact stress and equivalent stress, effectively improves the load-bearing capacity of the gear pair, and the sliding rate changes smoothly during meshing, which is conducive to the formation of a uniform lubricating oil film between the tooth surfaces, reducing friction and wear. At the same time, it can suppress vibration and noise, effectively improve transmission smoothness, especially suitable for high-speed transmission scenarios, and is easy to process and manufacture, reducing processing difficulty. Moreover, based on the gear pair structure determined by this invention, the working tooth surfaces of the driving gear tooth profile and the driven gear tooth profile form line contact, the principal curvature changes smoothly during meshing, the meshing backlash is small, and the tooth surface contact line is a non-equidistant oblique line distribution, covering a wide range of tooth width.
