Description

Methods and systems for calculating vibration limits of gearboxes, electronic equipment, and media. Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of gearbox vibration monitoring technology, and in particular to a method and system for calculating the vibration limit value of a gearbox, an electronic device, and a computer-readable storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] Gearboxes are widely used in aviation, shipbuilding, and engineering machinery. Their main function is to transmit input power or torque from the prime mover and change the input speed, while also enabling parallel or split-drive transmission. During operation, gearboxes are subjected to both internal excitations (including time-varying meshing stiffness, time-varying meshing damping, unbalanced inertial forces, and errors) and external excitations (including input torque fluctuations and output torque fluctuations), often resulting in significant vibration and noise. Therefore, to ensure the safe and reliable operation of gearboxes, vibration monitoring and the setting of corresponding vibration limits are generally necessary. However, current technologies rely on manual experience to set these vibration limits, rather than theoretical calculations, leading to inaccurate limits and hindering accurate vibration monitoring. Although existing technologies have proposed some theoretical calculation methods for vibration limit values, such as Chinese invention patent application CN117744453A which discloses a method for calculating the vibration limit value of an engine and Chinese invention patent application CN111473859A which discloses a method for determining the vibration limit value of an engine, the existing theoretical calculation methods for the vibration limit value of an engine cannot be applied to the gearbox because the internal and external excitations of the gearbox vibration are completely different from those of the engine.

The meshing force varies periodically with the gear meshing cycle. Therefore, the maximum meshing force of each gear pair under working conditions can be obtained based on the dynamic meshing force curve of each gear pair under working conditions. Additionally, in Figure 4... This represents the nominal value of the gear pair meshing force under working conditions. , This indicates the torque borne by the pinion in the gear pair. This indicates the pitch circle diameter of the pinion.

[0106] Additionally, as shown in Figure 5, in step S4, the process of calculating the maximum meshing force of the gear pair under the life-limited state includes the following:

[0107] Step S41: Calculate the maximum number of contact stress cycles based on the given gear contact fatigue life;

[0108] Step S42: Find the corresponding maximum stress amplitude in the stress-life curve of the material based on the maximum number of contact stress cycles;

[0109] Step S43: Calculate the maximum contact stress on the tooth surface based on the maximum stress amplitude;

[0110] Step S44: Calculate the maximum meshing force of the gear pair under the life-limited state based on the maximum contact stress on the tooth surface.

[0111] Specifically, gear life includes contact fatigue life L H and bending fatigue life L F This application uses contact fatigue life to set the life limit state. Since teeth in meshing have dynamic contact stress on their tooth surfaces, while teeth not in mesh do not, this application considers the variation law of the dynamic contact stress on the tooth surface as a pulsating cycle, as shown in Figure 6. Indicates stress amplitude, , , This represents the maximum and minimum values ​​of the tooth surface contact stress. , Considering the contact fatigue safety factor, the stress amplitude acting on the gear teeth is: , This indicates the stress amplitude acting on the gear teeth. This indicates the contact fatigue safety factor.

[0112] Therefore, given the gear contact fatigue life L H Then, it can be based on the formula: The maximum number of contact stress cycles was calculated. , Indicates the number of teeth on the gear. This indicates the gear speed.

[0113] Then, since the contact fatigue limit and stress-life curve (i.e., SN curve) of the material are measured under pulsating cyclic conditions, the maximum stress amplitude can be directly found in the SN curve of the material based on the maximum number of contact stress cycles. The maximum contact stress on the tooth surface is then calculated based on the following formula:

[0114] ;

[0115] in, This indicates the maximum contact stress on the tooth surface. This represents the maximum stress amplitude acting on the gear teeth. This indicates the contact fatigue safety factor.

[0116] Finally, according to the conversion relationship between gear contact stress and dynamic meshing force in the national standard: The maximum contact stress on the tooth surface can then be calculated based on the following formula: , This represents the maximum meshing force of the gear pair under life-limited conditions. This represents the single-pair meshing coefficient of the pinion in a gear pair. Represents the coefficient of the node region. Represents the elastic coefficient. This represents the overlap factor used in contact strength calculations. This represents the helix angle factor used in contact strength calculations. Indicates the use of coefficients, Indicates the dynamic load factor. This represents the tooth load distribution factor used in contact strength calculations. This represents the inter-tooth load distribution coefficient used in contact strength calculations. Indicates tooth width. This indicates the ratio of the number of teeth between the large gear and the small gear in a gear pair. This indicates the pitch circle diameter of the pinion.

[0117] In addition, in step S5, the dynamic meshing force of each gear pair under working conditions is corrected based on the following formula:

[0118] ;

[0119] in, This represents the dynamic meshing force of each gear pair under life-limited conditions. This represents the dynamic meshing force of each gear pair under working conditions. This indicates the maximum meshing force of the gear pair under working conditions. This represents the maximum meshing force of the gear pair under life-limited conditions. Additionally, the dynamic meshing force curve of a certain gear pair under life-limited conditions is shown in Figure 7.

[0120] It is understood that this application corrects the dynamic meshing force of the gear pair under working conditions based on the ratio between the maximum meshing force of the gear pair under the life-limited state and the maximum meshing force of the gear pair under the working state. This allows for the accurate determination of the dynamic meshing force of the gear pair under the life-limited state, providing an accurate data basis for the subsequent vibration limit value determination process.

[0121] In addition, in step S6, a force analysis is performed based on the gear support structure, which can be based on the dynamic meshing force of each gear pair under the life-limited state. Obtain the dynamic support reaction force of the corresponding support bearing under the life-limited state. Then, a transient dynamic analysis model of the gearbox casing was established using finite element software such as ANSYS, and dynamic support reactions of the bearings were applied at the corresponding bearing housing positions. By solving the transient dynamic analysis model, a vibration velocity distribution cloud map or a vibration acceleration distribution cloud map of the gearbox casing can be obtained. The vibration velocity or acceleration corresponding to the vibration measurement point of the gearbox can then be found in the cloud map and used as the vibration velocity limit value or vibration acceleration limit value at that measurement point. The specific force analysis and transient dynamic analysis are existing technologies, and their detailed processes and principles will not be elaborated here.

[0122] In addition, the present invention also provides a vibration limit value calculation system for a gearbox, preferably employing the above-described gearbox vibration limit value calculation method. The gearbox includes a first gear 1, a second gear 2, a third gear 3, a fourth gear 4, a fifth gear 5, and a sixth gear 6. Power is input from the first gear 1, which meshes with the second gear 2 and the third gear 3 on two branches to distribute the power. The second gear 2 transmits power to the fourth gear 4 via a first elastic shaft 7, and the third gear 3 transmits power to the fifth gear 5 via a second elastic shaft 8. Both the fourth gear 4 and the fifth gear 5 mesh with the sixth gear 6, which then outputs the combined power. Each gear includes two helical gears with opposite helix angles, connected by a shaft segment. As shown in Figure 8, the gearbox vibration limit value calculation system includes:

[0123] The design parameter setting module is used to determine the design parameters of the gearbox.

[0124] The dynamics solution module is used to construct the dynamic model of the gearbox based on the design parameters using the lumped parameter method, and to solve the dynamic model to obtain the torsional vibration angular displacement of each gear under working conditions.

Then, based on the torsional vibration angular displacement of each gear, it calculates the dynamic meshing force of each gear pair under working conditions and obtains the maximum value of the gear pair meshing force under working conditions. After calculating the maximum value of the gear pair meshing force under the life-limited state, it corrects the dynamic meshing force of each gear pair under working conditions, thereby obtaining the dynamic meshing force of each gear pair under the life-limited state. Finally, based on the dynamic meshing force of each gear pair under the life-limited state, it determines the vibration limit value at the gearbox vibration measurement point. This system proposes for the first time a theoretical solution path for gearbox vibration limit values. It can determine the vibration limit value at the gearbox vibration measurement point through theoretical calculation, without relying on experimental results or historical data of similar gearboxes, and without relying on human experience. This improves the accuracy and interpretability of setting gearbox vibration limit values, which is beneficial for accurate vibration monitoring of gearboxes.
