Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of gear measurement technology, and specifically to an automatic measuring device for bevel gear tooth backlash. Background Technology
[0002] Bevel gear transmissions are one of the key testing technologies in the field of gear transmission, and are widely used in various transmission fields such as aviation, marine, metallurgy, fluid transportation, and petroleum production. Tooth backlash is a crucial parameter in gear transmission; too little backlash can lead to gear overheating, jamming, or even damage; too much backlash can cause impact, noise, and wear. Therefore, after the bevel gear transmission is assembled, its tooth backlash must be measured to ensure smooth gear transmission, low noise, and long service life.
[0003] Currently, commonly used gear inspection methods include dial indicator method, lead weight method, feeler gauge method, and indirect calculation method. For measuring the tooth backlash of bevel gears, the dial indicator method is the preferred, most standard, and most professional method. It offers high accuracy, quantifiability, and good repeatability. Through standardized operation and accurate data recording, it can ensure that the gear pair is in optimal working condition, extending its service life. The disadvantages of the dial indicator method are its low efficiency and the need for sufficient space to install the dial indicator.
[0004] With the rapid rise of automated production lines in my country, product quality and consistency have been significantly improved, and production and assembly efficiency have been greatly enhanced. Production activities are transforming into highly stable, efficient, and controllable systems that rely on "technology and data." Therefore, this invention aims to solve the weak link of low efficiency in bevel gear assembly, namely gear clearance measurement, thereby improving the overall production efficiency of the assembly.
[0005] The automatic bevel gear backlash measurement device is a key piece of equipment for modern intelligent manufacturing and quality control. By integrating precision mechanics, automatic control, sensor technology and software algorithms, it achieves high-speed, high-precision and unmanned detection of key quality parameters, which greatly improves the production quality and efficiency of gear transmission components.
