Abstract:
Method for milling a series of teeth of a toothed gear element with teeth in a straight line with a milling cutter rotatable about a milling cutter axis and having at its periphery interchangeable cutting inserts arranged such that, when the milling cutter is brought to the toothed gear element, they reach into gaps between adjacent teeth or generate these gaps, and a corresponding milling cutter. Cutting edges of mounted cutting inserts extend radially and perpendicularly relative to the milling cutter axis. During milling of the tooth profile, the milling cutter axis is aligned in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal extent of the tooth back and, during entering of the cutting inserts, rotated about the milling cutter axis, into the surface or gaps between the teeth, and pivoted in this plane over an angular range covering all normals to the profile surface of the tooth to be produced.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for producing continuous corrections on a bevel gear, whereby by entering a plurality of corrections into the CNC control of the machine and interpolation between them, camber designs and even the designs of twists or the avoidance of twists on the tooth flanks can be performed by suitable superimposition of corrections on the inner and outer tooth tips with corrections of the plunger position.
Abstract:
The apparatus for grinding rough-cut longitudinally curved gear teeth of a helical bevel gear, comprises two spindles for respectively mounting a tool and a workpiece, and structure for translatably and adjustably arranging at least one spindle of these two spindles. A separate electric motor arranged coaxially with each of the two spindles serves for driving the tool and for driving the workpiece, respectively. The separate electric motors are mutually interconnected by an electric shaft.
Abstract:
This method is for finish machining the teeth of rough machined bevel gears having longitudinally curved teeth where finish machining is undertaken subsequent to case hardening. To permit economical fabrication of such bevel gears at least in mass production, the bevel gears are ground as workpieces by a tool designed as a hypoid gear and provided with at least one abrading surface on tooth flanks of its toothing. The workpiece and the tool are brought into mesh and positively and synchronously rotarily driven in the ratio of their respective tooth numbers. Displacement of the tool axis relative to the workpiece axis as well as speeds of the tool and the workpiece are selected such that a relative sliding velocity arising between the tool and the workpiece lies within the range of conventional surface speeds for grinding. All concave tooth flanks of the workpiece or all convex tooth flanks of the workpiece or both are continuously ground in a single operation with a feed motion. The gear employed as the grinding tool exhibits curved helical bevel gear teeth. These gear teeth are provided with an abrading coating on their tooth flanks. The tool is arranged in axial displacement relative to the workpiece. In order that both the workpiece and the grinding tool can be driven synchronously at the requisite rotary speeds, both the tool and the workpiece are each connected to a respective electric motor and the two electric motors are interconnected by a so-called "electric shaft".
Abstract:
Apparatus for milling a gear for a double enveloping worm gear drive. A rotating milling cutter is advanced toward a workpiece spindle to mill a flank of a gear tooth by tilting the milling cutter supporting frame about an axis that passes through the axis of rotation of the workpiece spindle to form a predetermined change in the helix angle from the top to the root of the tooth. The initial tilt setting of the cutter is adjusted to suit the root helix angle.
Abstract:
Generating cutting processes for producing bevel gears and employing a single rotary disc cutter (36) wherein a portion of the generating cutting process effectively includes a reduction (38) of the workpiece roll angle (40) during generating thereby reducing or eliminating cutting action on the clearance side (42) of the rotary disc cutter.
Abstract:
A translocation-simulating loading apparatus for the gear grinding machine with the shaped grinding wheel is provided. The apparatus includes a load-receiving test piece disposed on the gear grinding machine with the shaped grinding wheel and a load-exerting component for use in loading simulation. The gear grinding machine enables linear movements along the X, Y, and Z axes, a rotary movement around the Y axis, a rotary movement C around the Z axis, and a rotary movement A around the X axis. An angle α is formed between the axis L of a ball seat of the load-exerting component and the X axis direction of a Y axis component and an angle formed between the normal line of a load receiving face a and the X direction of the coordinate system of the machine tool is α. A detection method for static stiffness distribution is provided.
