Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a tooth surface waviness Fourier analysis method based on a least square sine fitting algorithm, and belongs to the technical field of involute cylindrical gear fitting. Background Art

[0002] In the field of signal processing and mechanical vibration analysis, Fourier analysis is a widely used mathematical tool that can decompose complex signals or functions into a series of simple sine waves or cosine waves to reveal their frequency characteristics. Fourier analysis is divided into two main forms: Fourier series and Fourier transform. Fourier series is applicable to periodic signals, while Fourier transform is applicable to non-periodic signals. By converting time domain signals to frequency domain, Fourier analysis can more clearly display the frequency components of the signal. The order indicates the number of vibration events that occur per rotation of the rotating part (360°), which corresponds to the frequency in conventional vibration analysis. This analysis method is particularly important when dealing with gear noise problems, and it also plays an important role in studying the influence of gear tooth surface errors on gear meshing noise.

[0003] When performing Fourier transform, the traditional FFT algorithm is designed for equally spaced sampled data. However, in practical applications, data points are often not equally spaced, which makes it difficult to directly apply FFT. To perform Fourier transform (FFT) on unequally spaced data, the data must first be interpolated to make it equally spaced, and then the FFT transform is performed, which greatly increases the difficulty of data processing.

[0004] In view of the above problems, this paper proposes a tooth surface waviness Fourier analysis method based on the least squares sine fitting algorithm, which aims to analyze the periodic components in the gear waviness. By performing Fourier analysis on the gear waviness measured at the gear measurement center, the tooth surface periodic error can be evaluated in detail. This method provides accurate data support for gear quality assessment and manufacturing process. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to propose a tooth surface waviness Fourier analysis method based on the least squares sine fitting algorithm. The tooth surface waviness measured by the gear measurement center is subjected to Fourier analysis, and the spectrum result is calculated by the least squares sine fitting algorithm.

[0006] The present invention proposes a tooth surface waviness Fourier analysis method based on least squares sinusoidal fitting, which specifically includes the following method steps:

[0007] Step 1: Obtain the tooth surface waviness based on the gear measurement center

[0008] Tooth surface waviness is the result of the combined influence of geometric features such as tooth surface shape error, surface waviness and surface roughness. Tooth surface waviness can be divided into two types: tooth profile waviness along the tooth profile direction and helix line waviness along the helix line direction. The full tooth surface waviness of the gear is the comprehensive result of superimposing the pitch error along the involute line direction onto the tooth surface waviness based on the principle of gear meshing and the generation principle of the involute line, referred to as gear waviness. The gear waviness, including tooth profile waviness and helix line waviness, is obtained based on the gear measurement center measurement, providing fitting data for the subsequent Fourier decomposition algorithm based on the least squares fitting sine function.

[0009] Step 2: Fourier decomposition algorithm based on least squares fitting of sine function

[0010] The least squares method is a commonly used data fitting algorithm, whose goal is to find the optimal fitting parameters by minimizing the residual sum of squares between the observed data and the fitting function. When fitting a sine function, the least squares method can be used to determine the amplitude, frequency, phase and other parameters of the sine function. The specific steps of sine function fitting are as follows:

[0011] S1. Establishing the least squares function fitting model

[0012]

[0013] Where A is the amplitude of the sine function, indicating the maximum amplitude of the fluctuation, λ is the wavelength, is the phase offset, which determines the translation of the sine wave on the x-axis, and B is the vertical offset, which indicates the center position of the sine wave.

[0014] S2. Define residual

[0015] Given a set of data points (x i ,y i ), (where i = 1, 2, ..., n), the goal of the least squares method is to select parameters A, λ, B, so that the observed value y i and the model predicted value f(x i ) is the smallest residual sum of squares. i Defined as:

[0016]

[0017] S3. Minimize the residual sum of squares

[0018] Minimize the objective function, the residual sum of squares:

[0019]

[0020] S4. Establish the lowest square sine fitting algorithm for tooth surface

[0021] According to the least square function fitting model established by formula (1), a sine function is fitted to the tooth surface waviness data, and the fitting model is established as follows:

[0022]

[0023] Where λ k is the wavelength, A k The wavelength is λ k The corresponding amplitude is The wavelength is λ k The initial phase at x j is the horizontal coordinate of the tooth profile point, y j It is the error value of measuring tooth profile point.

[0024] According to formula (4), the result of sine fitting is calculated, and the measurement point x j is arbitrary and does not need to be equally spaced.

[0025] Step 3: Solve for the order

[0026] Formula (4) is solved by applying Euler's formula:

[0027] 2·i·sin(x)=exp(i·x)-exp(-i·x)(5)

[0028] In the formula is a complex unit, exp(i·x)—complex Euler exponential function.

[0029] In combination with Euler's formula (5), the fitting formula (4) can be significantly simplified. By minimizing the sum of squared deviations, it can be simplified to maximizing a matrix product that depends only on the unknown wavelength λ k , the simplified result is:

[0030]

[0031] In the formula

[0032] H represents the formation of the Hermite matrix, that is, the vector or matrix needs to be transposed. The maximization of equation (3) is either performed by iteration or by determining the wavelength grid that maximizes (3). If the wavelength λ max It is determined that the amplitude and initial phase can be determined from the following relations:

[0033]

[0034]

[0035] In the formula

[0036] If only wavelengths that are integer multiples of the measurement distance are considered, and further restricted to a uniform measurement grid, equation (6) can be simplified to the following expression:

[0037]

[0038] In the formula

[0039] According to the above given λ max , calculate A and values, which are solutions of the discrete Fourier transform. Therefore, the presented algorithm can be seen as an extension of the discrete Fourier transform, applicable to arbitrary wavelengths and measurement intervals.

[0040] Step 4: Calculate the order spectrum

[0041] The most critical step in the Fourier analysis of tooth surface is to calculate the amplitude of the fitted sine wave function within the selected frequency range. max The fitted sine function is considered as the first main order. Then, this main sine wave function is removed from the waviness curve, and the remaining waviness curve is refitted. The compensating sine wave with the second largest amplitude is considered as the second main order. All spectrum results are calculated in sequence. The steps are as follows:

[0042] S1. Determine the wavelength of the fitted sine function

[0043] Assuming that the data of the first m orders are calculated, the wavelength of the corresponding sine function is:

[0044] λ={λ1,λ1,…,λ m}(10)

[0045] S2. Solve for the amplitude

[0046] Calculate the corresponding amplitudes at this time:

[0047] A={A1,A2,…,A m} (11)

[0048] S3. Initial phase solution

[0049] The corresponding initial phase is:

[0050]

[0051] S4. Solving the spectrum

[0052] The spectrum results are:

[0053] Q={(1,A1),(2,A2),…,(m,A m )}(13)

[0054] The present invention proposes a tooth surface waviness Fourier analysis method based on the least squares sine fitting algorithm to solve the problems of overlap and unequal spacing in gear waviness Fourier analysis, and provides guiding opinions on gear processing and gear meshing noise according to the analysis results.

[0087] Where λ k is the wavelength, A k The wavelength is λ k The corresponding amplitude is The wavelength is λ k The initial phase at x j is the horizontal coordinate of the tooth profile point, y j It is the error value of measuring tooth profile point.

[0088] Step 3: Solve for the order

[0090] 2·i·sin(x)=exp(i·x)-exp(-i·x)

[0091] In the formula is a complex unit, exp(i·x)—complex Euler exponential function.

[0092] By minimizing the sum of squared deviations, this can be simplified to maximizing a matrix product that depends only on the unknown wavelength λ k , the simplified result is:

[0093]

[0094] If the wavelength λ max It is determined that the amplitude and initial phase can be determined from the following relations:

[0095]

[0096]

[0097] If we only consider wavelengths that are integer multiples of the measurement distance, and further restrict ourselves to a uniform measurement grid, this simplifies to the following expression:

[0098]

[0099] According to the above given λ max , calculate A and values, which are the solutions of the discrete Fourier transform.

[0100] Step 4: Calculate the order spectrum

[0101] Maximum amplitude A max The fitted sine function is considered as the first main order. Then, this main sine wave function is removed from the waviness curve, and the remaining waviness curve is refitted. The compensating sine wave with the second largest amplitude is considered as the second main order. All spectrum results are calculated in sequence. The steps are as follows:
