치차의 마찰손실은 일반적으로 낮으나, 치면의 온도상승을 초래하여 마멸을 증대시키거나 치면의 강도를 저하시킨다. 이것은 결과적으로 치차의 강도(부하특성)에 직접적인 관계를 갖고 있기 때문에 마찰손실을 가능한 한 낮게 유지하여야 한다. 치차의 맞물림은 치면의 미끄름속도 미 끄름율, 곡율반경 및 하중이 맞물림중에 순간적으로 변하므로 해석이 간단하지 않다.

An expert system is developed which can design the power transmission involute cylindrical gears on the basis of strength and durability. Bending strength, surface durability, scoring, and wear probability are considered as the basis. The basic components of the expert system are knowledge base, inference engine, and working memory. The knowledges in knowledge base are classified hierarchically into the knowledges used in selection of gear type, selection of materials, and determination of K factor and are represented by rules. In the inference engine two inference methods are implemented with the depth first search method. For-ward chaining method is introduced in the selection of gear type and materials and in the determination of K factor. Backward chaining method is introduced in the detailed design of module and face width in accordance with the validation of strength. And inference efficiency is achieved by constructing the part needing a lot of numerical calculations in strength estimation separately from inference mechanism. The working memory is established to save the results during inference temporarily. In addition, design database of past design results is built for consultation during design and knowledge acquisition facility, explanation facility, and user interface are included for the usefulness of user. This expert system is written with the PROLOG programming language and the FORTRAN language in numerical calculation part which interfaced with PROLOG and can also be executed on IBM-PC compatible computer operated by MS-DOS alone.

A strength and durability estimation system of involute cylindrical gears which are commonly used as power transmission devices is developed on the personal computer, which analyzed and/or evaluates the gear design and the service performance at the point of view of strength and durability. The typical considerations are the bending strength and the sunface durability, and the strength and durability estimations are carried out using the reliable standards of AGMA&ISO. In addition, the finite element analysis (FEM) of tooth bending stress is conducted in order to compare the real maximum stress with the estimaed bending stress by the standard. Therefore, the system is built so that the variables or factors considered differently in those standards and the strength & durability are appraised seperately by each method, and a series of the estimation processes is integrated into the system can be used in the initial design at the view point of strength and durability. And it is useful to the purpose of the trouble-shooting of gear system and the purpose of introducing the methods for maintaining design strength in service, with appraising the strength and durability after design or with appraising the influencing factors, as a whole. Therefore, this strength and durability estimation system can help the aim of automatic design of cylindrical gears.

대량생산체제로 제작되는 자동차용 변속기는 일단 양산에 돌입하고부터는 막대한 retooling비 용의 지불없이는 좀처럼 그 모양이나 중요설계치수가 변경될 수 없기 때문에, 초기설계단계에 서의 다양하고 신중한 고려가 그 후의 어느 단계보다 중요하다. 자동차용 변속기의 치차설계자는 치차상의 주어진 공간내에서 가장 튼튼하고 소리없는 치차를 설계하기 위하여 모듈(module), 압력각, 치깊이 등이 표준에서 벗어나는 특수 cutter를 사용하도록 요구할 수밖에 없다(이러한 비표준 cutter의 제작을 위해서는 다소 더 많은 시간과 경비가 소요될지 모르지만, 이 문제는 양산체제의 특수성 속에 충분히 소화흡수된다). 표준치차의 경우에는 대부분의 설계 데이터가 테 이블이나 그래프로 주어져 있지만 모듈, 압력각, 치깊이 등이 표준에서 벗어나는 치차에 있어서는 이것들을 별도로 계산하지 않으면 안된다. 더욱이 세계자동차 메이커가 소형화와 경량화로 치 닫고 있는 현 추세에 있어서는 더욱 정밀한 계산에 의한 데이터가 요구될 것이다. 본 보고서는 임의의 cutter를 사용하여 절삭한 치차의 fillet 부분에 있어서 fillet 곡선의 함수를 구하고 이 것으로부터 lewis방식의 굽힘강도계산식(대부분의 굽힘강도 계산식이 lewis 이론에 입각한 것이긴 하지만)에 사용되는 강도계 수를 approach 법으로 구하는 방법과 계산공식에 대하여 서술한 것이다. 여기서 취급하는 굴절법은 hobbing cutter 등에 의한 rack형 굴절법이다.

Tooth errors inevitable in the manufacturing process have large effect on the strength/durability and vibration performances of gear drives. We show that the manufacturing errors affect the overall gear performances, especially vibration performance, and propose a robust optimal design method for gear dimension and its tooth flank form that guarantees reliable performances to the variation of manufacturing errors. This method begins with a search of optimal design candidates by using the previously developed gear optimal design method for the strength/durability and vibration performances. Then, the statistical analysis method is applied to find a robust design solution for the vibration performance which is generally very sensitive to the manufacturing variations.

A computer-aided design system of involute cylindrical gears(spur and helical gears) for power transmission is developed, in which the volume of a gear unit is minimized with satisfying various design constraints. As the design constraints, bending strength and pitting resistance of AGMA 218.01, scoring of Dudley's flash temperature, contact ratio, and involute interference of pinion are considered and effective factors for strength calculation(life, reliability, hardness ratio, load distribution, velocity, etc.) are also included. This complicated nonlinear optimization problem is solved by using ALM(Augmented-Lagrange-Multiplier) method with self scaling BFGS(Broydon-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno) method employed for unconstrained optimization programming. This design method can be easily applied to designing power transmission gear unit in the machines of various kinds. It is expected for the proposed method to be a contribution for an automated design of gear unit towards weight minimization, miniaturization and high strength of gear unit.

When designing an internal gear. the bending strength around pitch point as well as that at tooth root fillet should be considered because the bending stress around pitch point may occur as high as that at tooth root fillet. In this study, including stress state around pitch point, the bending strength (tensile side and compressive side) of internal gear tooth is investigated by the use of the finite element method(FEM) with regarding many influencing factors of cutter and gear geometries. Then, the critical sections around pitch point and at tooth root fillet are determined, and the simple formulae based on nominal stresses(bending, compressive, and shear) are derived for the calculations of actual stresses as the functions of tooth thicknesses and radii of curvatures of involute and fillet curve at those critical sections. The stresses calculated by the formulae agree well with those by the FEM. And the bending stresses around pitch point and at tooth root are easily estimated by the use of those formulae, therefore, those formulae are useful for the purpose of the design or the bending strength estimation of internal gear.

This paper deals with evaluation of bending fatigue strength in SCM415 carburized spur gears. The constant stress amplitude fatigue test is performed by using an electrohydraulic servo-controlled pulsating tester. The S-N curves are obtained and the enhanvement of fatigue strength due to carburized treatment is clarified. In this study the improvement of fatigue strength is assumed to be caused by an increase of both hardness and residual stress and experimental formula has been proposed for the estimation of bending fatigue strength of carburized gears. The effect of surface conditions on the fatigue strength is evaluated quantitatively and it is close to the relative surface condition factor used in the ISO strength rating formula.
