摘要:In order to study the influence of tooth root cracks on the fatigue life of case-hardened gears, taking an involute case-hardened gear as the research object, the mechanism of the tooth root fatigue crack growth is analyzed based on the fracture mechanics method and fatigue crack growth theory. The residual life analysis model of the tooth root crack propagation for case-hardened gears is established, considering the influence of load, initial crack size and initial crack location, etc. The evolution of stress intensity factor and crack propagation mechanism at different root crack propagation stages is studied. According to the bending fatigue test data of an involute case-hardened gear pair, the calculation model is analyzed and verified, and the accuracy of the model is proved. The results indicate that, compared with type Ⅱ and type Ⅲ, type Ⅰ stress intensity factor is the highest, which gradually decreases from the tooth surface to the direction of crack depth. With the increase of factors such as load, crack length, crack width, and initial crack distance from the center position of the tooth width, the residual life of crack propagation decreases accordingly.

摘要:In order to accurately study the temperature field distribution during the long-term sliding friction process of the limited slip clutch, Fluent software is used to solve the flow field velocity distribution of the friction pair under different working conditions to obtain the average convective heat transfer coefficient and calculate the cooling power of the lubricating oil. A dynamic heat flow distribution temperature prediction model is established with the constraint of continuous friction contact surface temperature by the heat balance method, and a long-time sliding friction test is designed to verify the analysis results. The results show that under the condition of the constant heat flow input, there is a temperature difference between the steel disc and the friction plate, which increases with time, the temperature prediction results are higher than the experimental values, and the maximum deviation is 22.2 K. The predicted deviation of the dynamic heat flow distribution temperature model is within 8.1 K. The input heat power at each position on the surface of the steel disc sheet decreases with time and tends to a fixed value. The equilibrium temperature is distributed in a parabola along the radial direction and reaches a peak at the place between the mid and the outer diameter.

摘要:To improve the meshing performance of harmonic reducers and the working performance of robots, a novel tooth profile design method for harmonic gears based on the improved kinematics and transient dynamics is proposed. Firstly, based on the characteristics of common tangent double arc tooth profile and S-type tooth profile, a new flexible tooth profile is proposed, which is the combination of S-type tooth profile and common tangent double arc tooth profile. Secondly, the tooth profile of the steel gear is calculated based on the improved kinematics method. Finally, the meshing backlash between the different tooth profiles and the stress of flexsplines without considering plastic deformation are analyzed based on the transient dynamics method. Through comparative analysis, it is found that the new tooth profile without considering plastic deformation has smaller meshing backlash and equivalent stress, the minimum meshing backlash is only 0.003 6 mm, the maximum equivalent stress under the given load condition is only 1 211.6 MPa, which are significantly lower than those of the double circular arc tooth profile flexspline, the S-shaped tooth profile flexspline, and the common tangent double circular arc tooth profile. The novel tooth profile design method can effectively improve the transmission performance of harmonic gears, which lays a theoretical foundation for the design of high-performance harmonic gears.

摘要:At present, there are two ways to design the rotor profile of a twin screw compressor: forward design and reverse design. In the forward design, the first step is to obtain a certain profile of one rotor (female rotor generally). The next is to solve the profile of the other rotor (male rotor generally) based on the law of meshing and the method of coordinate transformation. Further, the meshing line is achieved. In the reverse design, we should obtain the meshing line firstly and then the profiles of rotors are obtained based on the method of coordinate transformation and the law of meshing. This study conducts a research on the forward design of twin screw compressor based on comprehensive performance and tries to deduce a method of automatic optimization. The procedures are as follows: dividing the profiles of rotors into sections, solving the expression of each section, achieving the nodes of each section, making sure the adjustment range of control points of the rotor profile and proceeding the automatic optimization based on comprehensive performance. By comparison, the sealing property of rotor profiles has been improved by automatic optimization.
摘要:At present, the demand for heavy-duty hydraulic automatic transmission in engineering machinery and other equipment is increasing. As one of the core components of such kind of transmission, the design of hydraulic torque converters requires better accuracy and efficiency. Due to the difference of scale and torque, the design method of common torque converters is no longer applicable. The torque converter parametric design process is separated from the 3D software model generation process currently, which prolongs the design cycle. Therefore, this study presents a parametric design method for torque converters of the heavy-duty hydraulic automatic transmission and develops the parametric design software. Firstly, the geometric model of torus is established by constructing the middle streamline by two elliptical arcs, the camber line is designed with the quartic B-spline curve, and a method of controlling the shape of the camber line through the two-level inlet and outlet angles and vertex coordinates is proposed. The connection is established between the blade camber line shape control method and the curve control points, and the constraint conditions of camber line control parameters are designed. The automatic design program of torque converters is developed based on the NX Open software, and the central scheduling data processing framework is established with parameter rationality checking as the constraints. The instance results show that the design method can make the torque converter get reasonable shape quickly.

摘要:In this study, a simulation model of the two-stage helical gear pair-rotor-bearing of the main reducer is developed by Adams software. The simulation results show that the noise mainly comes from the resonance of the system and the contribution of the high-speed gear pair is large when the speed is in the range of 0~3 000 r/min. Furthermore, the vibration test of the main reducer and the real vehicle noise test are also conducted. The test results show that the noise of the main reducer increases obviously when the input speed is 2 138.67 r/min, and the corresponding meshing frequency of the gear pair is 605.96 Hz, verifying the simulation results. Finally, the effect of bearing stiffness on the resonance speed distribution is studied, and the optimization measures of the structural stiffness of the system are proposed. After optimization, the vibration amplitude decreases significantly when the speed is in the range of 1 400~2 200 r/min, and the resonance speed shifts to a higher speed. The relative errors between the test results and simulation analysis results are less than 5%, which verifies the Adams simulation results and the optimization measures, and provides some reference for shortening the development cycle of the electric drive axle main reducer and saving research and development costs.

摘要:A simplified three-dimensional brake model with crater structure is established by using the finite element software Abaqus, and the influence of the depth, diameters, degrees and types of craters on the temperature and stress of the brake disc is investigated by combining the thermal coupling theory and the orthogonal test method. On this basis, the temperature and stress fields of brake discs with different non-smooth surface forms are analyzed, and the influence of temperature with radius on non-smooth discs with different braking initial speeds and pressures during emergency braking is investigated under the optimal combination.

Among them, the square pit brake disc has the best heat dissipation performance. With the increase of the initial speed and pressure of braking, the temperature of this brake disc surface gradually increases, the highest temperatures of the brake disc all appeares in the brake disc radius of 136 mm.

摘要:Aiming at the problem of gear interference in the meshing transmission process of the double circular arc flexspline of the harmonic reducer in the actual working condition, based on the finite element method of tooth surface contact analysis between the flexspline and the circular spline, the flexspline tooth is modified by a two-stage helix modification method, and then the comprehensive performance of the prototype is tested. The results show that the maximum contact stress of the modified flexspline to the tooth surface of the circular spline is 72 MPa, which is 368 MPa less than that before the modification, and the contact stress of the other positions of the modified flexspline is slightly higher than that before the modification, which not only effectively avoids the problem of gear interference, but also improves the meshing transmission performance of the harmonic reducer. The comparative test of the prototype also verifies that the transmission performance of the harmonic reducer after the modification of the flexspline is better than that before the modification. This work is useful for the analysis on the dynamic transmission characteristics of the harmonic reducer.
摘要:In view of the failure problem of sun gear splines in fan gearboxes, through the analysis of the chemical composition, microstructure, microfracture and mechanical properties of the failure spline, the cause of the spline wear is found out. The results show that there are more rods, unequal axes or islands of the undissolved ferrite in the metallographic structure of inter mediate shaft(IMS) sun gear motor side splines, which reduces the wear resistance of the material. The failure of sun gear splines is mainly caused by low tooth surface hardness. At the same time, due to the comprehensive action of fatigue wear, chemical corrosion, abrasive wear and other wear mechanisms, serious tooth surface wear occurs, resulting in a decrease of the bearing capacity of IMS sun gear motor side splines. The force transmission is not smooth, and the vibration is aggravated during operation, resulting in the failure of the gearbox. The test results can provide some theoretical guidance for the fault detection and diagnosis of wind power gearboxes.

摘要:The research on electric drive wheel technology is an important direction of the research on the new energy drive system in the future. With the increasing requirements of the electric drive wheel on the speed, the oil churning power loss has become a non-negligible part, even up to 50%-80% of the total power loss. The existing calculation method of churning loss mainly adopts simple empirical formula, which cannot be applied to complex planetary gear transmission. The splash lubrication of the two-stage planetary gear drive is simulated by computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software and C language user defined function (UDF), and the visualization of oil gas two-phase transient flow field is realized; by extracting the surface pressure and the viscous force, the churning loss of the sun gears, planet gears and planet carriers are obtained; the simulation and analysis of the 25 working conditions show that the churning loss varies with the immersion depth and speed; the results show that the oil churning power loss increases with the oil immersion depth and the speed, and there is no obvious inflection point. To achieve the minimum oil stirring loss, the minimum oil immersion depth should be taken on the premise of ensuring full lubrication.

摘要:In order to improve the cavitation performance under high-speed for external gear pumps, a comprehensive compensation method with the small backlash, innovative annulus relief-groove and increasing inlet oil-pressure is proposed. Based on all derived models of the trapped-oil expansion-process interval, trapped-oil volume change rate, compensation flow rate for the expanded trapped-oil, relief areas and trapped-oil pressures differently under large backlash or small backlash, the minimum trapped-oil pressures under conventional rectangular relief-groove and innovative annular relief-groove are compared with an example. All results show that the maximum trapped-oil expansion rate and the expansion interval under the large backlash are only 18.3% of those of the small backlash; the maximum relief-area of the trapped-oil in the large backlash is only 7.9% of that in the small backlash due to different relief-groove space; the cavitation phenomenon is more serious; the ripple range of the trapped-oil pressure in the large backlash is 1.93 times than that in the small backlash, etc. It is concluded that the cavitation phenomenon of the high speed gear pump can be effectively alleviated by the comprehensive compensation method with the small backlash, innovative annular relief-groove and increasing inlet oil-pressure.
摘要:Although pure time-domain features have the advantages of fast extraction speed and clear physical meaning, the diagnostic accuracy is slightly inferior to other methods. To solve this problem, a new bearing feature extraction method based on the time subsequence (BOTS) is proposed, which combines word package model and time subsequence. First, the sliding window is used to slide in the vibration signal to obtain multiple continuous and non-stationary time series, which are regarded as a document. For each time series, multiple continuous subsequences of fixed length are randomly intercepted to obtain the time-domain or frequency-domain characteristics of subsequences. Then, the random forest algorithm is used to count the class votes of all subsequences in each time series, and a dictionary is constructed based on the class votes. Finally, the dictionary is used as a new feature and input into the random forest classifier for training and learning. A variety of experiments are carried out using the bearing data provided by the SQI-MFS experimental platform of Wuxi Innovation Center of SIEMENS China Research Institute, Southeast University and Institute of Mechanical Failure Prevention Technology. The experiments show that the features extracted by BOTS+ wavelet packet energy method have higher recognition.
