Abstract
Abstract
This paper introduces a novel gear drive characterized by high transmission efficiency. The gear incorporates cubic curves with corresponding tangents defining the normal section tooth profile. The generation principle of this new gear drive is thoroughly established. Utilizing gear meshing theory, key parameters such as the relative motion velocity, normal vector, and meshing equation are derived. Subsequently, the fundamental principle of the conjugate curve is formulated. The methodology for generating the tooth profile is also explored. An efficiency test was conducted on the gear, and the results demonstrate a superior transmission efficiency relative to that of traditional involute gears.
