摘要:For gears running at high speeds, windage power loss is one of the main factors for low transmission efficiency. Computational fluid dynamics(CFD) technology is used to establish the air flow field model around the arc tooth cylindrical gear. The digital twin simulation calculation is performed to obtain the velocity vector diagram and windage loss power of the air flow around the arc tooth cylindrical gear. The results show that the baffle around the arc tooth cylindrical gear can effectively reduce windage power loss, the smaller the axial baffle spacing,the smaller the windage power loss of the arc tooth cylindrical gear. When the axial baffle gap is 2 mm,the windage power loss is reduced by 27.80% compared with the axial baffle gap of 10 mm. But for the radial baffle,it is not that the smaller the gap, the smaller the windage power loss of the arc tooth cylindrical gear. Different types of tooth shapes have different windage power losses under the same conditions. Under the same conditions, it is found that the spur gear with a pressure angle of 25° reduces the windage power loss by 23.84% compared with the standard helical gear.

摘要:In order to overcome the disadvantage of small transfer torque in single magnetorheological drive, a combined drive method of electrothermal shape memory alloy(SMA) and magnetorheological is proposed, which can improve the transfer torque of drive device. Based on the thermal effect characteristics of shape memory alloy, the relationship between extrusion force and temperature of electrothermal SMA spring is established. Maxwell software is used to carry out finite element analysis of the magnetic field and obtain the distribution of the magnetic field intensity along the radius in the working gap of the disc under different currents. Based on the magnetorheological characteristic of magnetorheological fluids, the relationship between the torque transferred by magnetorheological fluids and the parameters such as magnetic field strength and radius is established. Based on the extrusion characteristics of SMA springs, the relationship between friction torque and extrusion force, radius and other parameters is established. The results show that, the friction torque produced by the extrusion force of the electrothermal shape memory alloy spring increases with the temperature increasing. The magnetic field increases with increasing radius. The combined transfer torque of the electrothermal shape memory alloy and magnetorheological(MR) is 53.8% higher than that of a single MR transmission.
摘要:Planetary gearboxes are widely used in mechanical transmission systems due to their large transmission ratio and high transmission efficiency. In a planetary gearbox, the sun gear is usually set to float to balance the sharing of loads among planet gears. However, this floating set will result in the variation of pressure angle, overlap ratio and meshing phase in the meshing progress. In the previous studies, these parameters were reduced to constant. To study the influence of the dynamic parameters on the vibration response of planetary gearboxes under different operating conditions, a new lumped parameter model containing the time-varying pressure angle, time-varying overlap ratio and time-varying meshing phase is established. Based on this model, the vibration response mechanism of the sun gear is analyzed. Moreover, the comparison with the previous model is made and the rule of phase modulation caused by these dynamic parameters is revealed. By comparing the dynamic responses under different loads and rotation speeds, the phase modulation is studied in detail.

摘要:Gear is widely applied in mechanical transmission systems. Gear meshing stiffness is a time varying parameter because of the periodical changing of the numbers of teeth involved in meshing process,the meshing vibration is generated during gear meshing. When the cracks are existed in roots of gear teeth,the meshing stiffness decreased,vibration response of the system due to gear meshing changed as well. Thus,identifying gear meshing stiffness through vibration response is a method monitoring healthy state of gear pairs. For the time-varying character of meshing stiffness,a gear meshing stiffness identification algorithm is proposed based on exponential window recursive least square method(EWRLS) interception and instantaneous frequency of the vibration signal. During the identification of meshing stiffness,EWRLS algorithm takes the speed curves of the input and output gears as the identification input signal and observation signal,respectively. In the algorithm,the exponential window is applied to intercept data,and the recursive least square algorithm is applied to estimate parameters of the system. To calculate speed curve of the input and output gears,the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) method is used to decompose vibration signal into intrinsic mode function (IMF) of different frequency,the IMFs are used to reconstruct character signals of input and output gears basing on the mean frequency of IMFs. The Hilbert transform is applied to calculate the instantaneous frequency curve of the character signals to obtain the speed curves of gears. The simulated signal and measured signal are used to validate the algorithm,results show that the EWRLS algorithm can identify time-varying meshing stiffness of gear pair.

摘要:The study on stationary dynamic response of a gear transmission system with time-varying mesh stiffness subjected to stationary stochastic external excitation is carried out. A spur gear pair model with periodical time-varying mesh stiffness is built to include stochastic external force excitations. In order to compute the stationary response of gear system, a very efficient method, called the iterative spectral method is used. This method is derived in the frequency domain and provides the explicit power spectral density(PSD) of the response. The PSD response is expressed as a function of the bispectrum which is the bilinear Fourier transform of the bitemporal impulse response of the parametric system.

摘要:The cycloid pin wheel drive system is taken as the research object, and the nonlinear dynamics model of bending torsion coupling is established by using the method of concentrated mass. Considering the eccentric motion of cycloid and the influence of time-varying stiffness, backlash and transmission error of cycloid and pin gear, the differential equation of motion of the system is obtained by Lagrange method.

摘要:Due to the particularity of the structure,the hysteretic stiffness and dynamic friction belong to the inherent properties of harmonic gear drive. Traditional models consider the stiffness as a fixed stiffness or segmented stiffness model,and the friction as a static friction model. Such simplification will lead to the decrease of the dynamic analysis accuracy of harmonic gear drive system. In order to improve the dynamic analysis accuracy and transmission performance of harmonic gear drive,considering the nonlinear hysteretic stiffness and dynamic friction phenomenon,a dynamics model of harmonic gear drive based on memory characteristic hysteresis stiffness and LuGre dynamic friction is proposed,and the corresponding simulation model is established. The effects of harmonic gear parameters on the system output are discussed. The results show that the stiffness hysteresis phenomenon leads to the decrease of system output and transmission efficiency, the larger the transmission stiffness coefficient, the more stable the system, the larger the damping torque coefficient, the lower the transmission efficiency.

摘要:A quadruped wheel-legged mobile robot based on 2-UPS/(S+SPR)R closed loop parallel mechanism is designed for the complex surface environment of aliens planet. The optimal gait is obtained by comparing the stability margin and the barycenter adjustment of the robot in the process of motion, the stability of the robot in the static gait is measured by ZMP method, and the trajectory of the foot end is planned by the improved compound cycloid method. In the whole movement process, the movement of the mechanical leg is stable and the change of speed and acceleration is relatively smooth, which would not cause damage to the mechanical leg due to strong impact. Besides, the speed and acceleration are zero at the moment of lifting the leg and landing, which would not impact the fuselage. The analysis results indicate that the quadruped wheel-legged mobile robot moves flexibly and smoothly, which is suitable for the exploration of outer space.
摘要:In order to overcome the weakness of the snake-like robot driven by driven wheels,a new three-link snake-like robot driven by driving wheels is proposed. The snake-like robot is composed of a plurality of serial connecting rods connected by passive joints,and the center of each connecting rod is provided with an active omnidirectional wheel. The driving force of omnidirectional wheels only acts on the transverse direction, while the robot moves along the longitudinal direction. In addition,aiming at the characteristics of incomplete constraint and underactuated snake-like robot, a motion controller with anti-skid function is designed by using local coordinate system, so that the motion and joint angle do not interfere with each other. The experimental results of slithered movement show that the proposed design is feasible, and the motion controller effectively avoids the problem of omnidirectional wheel slippage and improves the stability of the whole system.

In order to analyze the lubrication condition of angular contact ball bearings and the mechanical characteristics of bearings considering lubrication,based on finite element method and Lattice-Boltzmann method, the bidirectional fluid-structure coupling simulation model of bearings is established. The dynamics finite element simulation and lubricating fluid simulation of angular contact ball bearings are carried out,and the results are compared with the calculation results of bearing quasi-static theory to verify the accuracy of the model. The results show that the cage is in contact with the ball and hits,the oil film pressure is the largest in the bearing cavity,and the contact areas of the ball with the inner ring and the outer ring raceway are the second and third largest oil film pressure areas respectively. The lubricating oil is affected by the revolution of the ball and flows along the direction of rotation of the ball to achieve lubrication between the ball and inner ring,outer ring and cage. The simulation results of ball motion and maximum contact stress are consistent with the solution results of bearing quasi-static theory,that is,the fluid-structure coupling simulation model has high accuracy in calculating the mechanical characteristics of bearings.

摘要:The vibration signal of crane gearbox has the characteristics of low signal-to-noise ratio and nonlinearity,so it needs some professional knowledge and experience to realize fault diagnosis. In order to realize intelligent fault diagnosis of crane gearbox,an intelligent fault diagnosis method based on variational modal decomposition(VMD) improved wavelet denoising and particle swarm optimization(PSO) support vector machine(SVM) is proposed. Firstly, VMD is used to decompose the vibration signal to obtain the intrinsic mode function(IMF) of different scales. The decomposed high frequency component is improved after wavelet de-noising and the low frequency component is reconstructed. Then the feature parameters of reconstructed signal are extracted to construct the feature vector, and kernel principal component analysis(KPCA) is used to realize the feature information fusion. Finally, the PSO optimized SVM is used for fault identification and classification. The experimental results show that the SVM model based on VMD improved wavelet signal preprocessing and PSO algorithm has high recognition accuracy and can effectively and accurately identify and classify the fault types of the crane gearbox.
摘要:When the gearbox fails, its vibration signal is unstable and nonlinear. The commonly applied gearbox fault diagnosis methods are almost all based on the single-channel vibration signal analysis,which is easy to cause the loss of fault information,so the practicality in industrial production is limited. In order to overcome this defect, the multivariate multiscale dispersion entropy is introduced into the gearbox fault diagnosis. Meanwhile, the coarse graining method of it is improved, and improved multivariate multiscale dispersion entropy(IMMDE) is proposed to extract fault information of multi-channel vibration signal of gearbox. Based on this,a new gearbox fault diagnosis method based on ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD),IMMDE and genetic algorithm optimization support vector machine(GA-SVM) is proposed. Through the analysis of experimental data, it can be seen that this method has higher accuracy and stability compared with multivariate multiscale sample entropy(MMSE) and multivariate multiscale fuzzy entropy (MMFE),and has obvious advantages in dealing with short time series.

摘要:Based on the status that the research of the influence of eccentricity error on the meshing performance of the circular arc tooth trace cylindrical gear is relatively rare, the characteristics of the circular arc tooth trace cylindrical gear processed by different processing techniques are introduced. A three-dimensional model of the circular arc tooth trace cylindrical gear with geometric eccentricity is established. By using the commercial software Adams, the dynamics simulation model of the circular arc tooth trace cylindrical gear considering eccentricity error is established to study the speed fluctuation characteristics of driven wheel in the circular arc tooth trace cylindrical gear system under three working conditions of driving system, namely, the existence eccentricity of driving wheel, the existence eccentricity of driven wheel and the common eccentricity of driven and driven wheel. The research results show that, under the 3 kinds of eccentric conditions, the speed fluctuation characteristics of driven wheel periodically changes in the circular arc tooth trace cylindrical gear system, and the eccentricity has a certain effect on the speed fluctuation characteristics. The research results provide a theoretical basis for lubrication, fault diagnosis and tooth profile modification of the CATT cylindrical gear system.
摘要:In order to analyze the vibration characteristics of high-speed train gear transmission system under the influence of track irregular excitation, the dynamics software SIMPACK is used to establish a vehicle dynamic model including the gear transmission system, and the measurement points are arranged inside the large and small gears respectively. Dynamics simulation experiments under no track irregularities and conditions with track irregularities can obtain the vibration acceleration of large and small gears at a speed of 250 km/h for high-speed trains. The horizontal, vertical and vertical vibration acceleration amplitudes of the large and small gears are analyzed in frequency domain, and then the vibration amplitude and frequency spectrum distribution of the gear transmission system in the presence and absence of track irregularities are compared and analyzed. The results show that due to the influence of track irregular excitation, the lateral, longitudinal and vertical vibrations of the high-speed train gear transmission system are strengthened, and the vibration acceleration increases significantly, among which the vertical vibration acceleration has the largest amplitude change. The vibration frequency of the gear transmission system is mainly concentrated in 0~400 Hz. The lateral vibration of the pinion and the large gear is affected by the track irregularity, but the longitudinal vibration of the pinion is slightly smaller than that of the large gear, and the vertical vibration of the pinion is slightly larger than that of the large gear.
