MicroPulse and MicroShift for Ground Bevel Gearsets

摘要

This paper described the combination of the existing MicoPulse with a controlled structure shift. The structure shift is calculated, such that a complete sine function around the circumference of a pinion is established that changes the start roll positions of the individual teeth by the ordinate value of the sine function, which is split in a number of sections, equal to the number of teeth. The combination of a surface texture generation and the controlled shift of this texture from one tooth surface to the next is a new technology, which finds many physical analogies in unrelated fields, but a technique to apply this physical principle to gears had not been discovered until now.
