Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of gear tooth profile design, and in particular relates to a design method for a large-angle three-segment arc drum-shaped tooth. Background Art

[0002] Drum gear couplings are flexible couplings without elastic elements. They can achieve axial, radial and angular axis deviation compensation. They have the advantages of compact structure, small turning radius, large load capacity, high transmission efficiency, low noise and long maintenance cycle. They are widely used in metallurgy, rail transit, marine ships, lifting transportation, aerospace and other fields. However, the current drum gear couplings generally use single-segment arc drum gears. The design contradictions of taking into account multiple objectives such as load capacity and deflection angle are becoming more and more acute, which seriously restricts the performance and application fields of drum gear couplings.

[0003] In order to ensure the transmission stability, the design of the tooth clearance of the drum gear coupling is very strict. The maximum compensation angle of the equiaxial line of the single-section arc drum gear coupling for metallurgical equipment is only 1.5°, which puts higher requirements on the design of the transmission system of the supporting equipment and increases the design difficulty. Under the condition of equal clearance between the three-section arc drum gear pair and the single-section arc drum gear pair with large deflection angle, it is easier to meet the technical requirements of large deflection angle, but the design difficulty of the three-section arc drum gear is much higher than that of the single-section arc drum gear, and there is no systematic design method so far. Summary of the invention

Therefore, as shown in the appendix Figure 5 , point F (1.438, 1.5) is the limit design point of the coefficient τ, and the coefficient τ < 1.438.
