Effects of Rim and Web Thickness on Gear Rim Deformation

This paper presents the 3D FEM calculations of a rim deformation belonging to a spur thin-rimmed gear structure with symmetrical web arrangement. The modelled pinion-wheel pair includes the contact simulation at the considered mesh position, and enables the load distribution resulting from thin-rimmed wheel deformation as a whole. The emphasis is placed on the geometry of gear body and its effect on the variation of rim displacements at inner rim surface. For several combinations of rim and web thickness, maximum rim displacements are evaluated and the loci of their appearance on the rim are discussed.
