摘要

A tilted head-cutter is considered the generating tool for the generation of the proposed face-gear and a mathematical model of face-gear with curvilinear shaped teeth is developed according to the differential geometry and meshing theory. The generation of a conjugated pinion is based on application of a tilted head-cutter as well. Computer graphs of the gear with curvilinear shaped teeth are presented based on the developed gear';s mathematical model, and then the equation of the gear-tooth surface is deduced. An example is presented to demonstrate the application of the proposed mathematical model. ? (2012) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.
