Abstract

The use of face-gears in helicopter transmissions was explored. A light-weight, split torque transmission design utilizing face-gears was described. Face-gear design is discussed. Topics included basic design geometry, tooth generation, limiting inner and outer radii, and recommendation for the gear ratio. Face-gear experimental studies were also included and the feasibility of face-gears in high-speed, high-load applications such as helicopter transmissions was demonstrated. Torque-split tests were performed and demonstrated an accurate split of torque using the face-gear concept.
