The Optimal Design of Standard Gearsets,

Abstract

The objective of the research reported here is to establish an optimal design procedure for spur gear pairs. Standard tooth forms are assumed. Figures show a single mesh of the external type, and show a single mesh of the internal type. The procedure developed in this paper uses standard gear geometry and optimizes the remaining parameters to obtain the most compact standard gearset for a given application of specified speed reduction and input torque. The procedure applies to internal and external gearing.
