16、/AGMA 1106- A97 AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARDivForewordThe foreword, footnotes, and annexes are provided for informational purposes only andshould not be construed as a part of ANSI/AGMA 1106-A97, Tooth Proportions for PlasticGears.AGMA has issued standards for gear tooth proportions over a period of m

17、any years. Themost recent versions have been AGMA 201.02 (withdrawn 1995), Tooth Proportions forCoarse-Pitch Involute Spur Gears, and ANSI/AGMA 1003-G93, Tooth Proportions forFine-Pitch Involute Spur and Helical Gears. These standards and their predecessors wereprepared in response to the need to st

18、andardize gear generating cutting tools such as hobsand shaper cutters. Without such standards, the variety of tools needed by gear shopswould have become unlimited.The manufacture of gears by the molding process is not subject to the same practicalconstraints as manufacture by the gear cutting proc

19、ess. Every mold is inherently“non-standard”. The geometry of the mold cavity cannot follow a standard because ofvarying allowances for shrinkage. Furthermore, there are some methods for manufacturingthe mold cavity which do not depend on cutting tools and, even for those that do, specialtools are ge

20、nerally required. Thus, tooth proportions for molded plastic gears need notfollow those established for machined gears.Some of the special properties of plastic materials influence the selection of gear toothproportions as the two following examples illustrate:- The structure and orientation of plas

21、tic molecules, regardless of processing method,makes the strengths of the materials particularly sensitive to sharp internal corners. Asubstantially stronger tooth will result if sharp fillets at the base of the tooth are avoided.The tooth proportions for gears made according to the AGMA fine-pitch

22、standard notedabove generally result in relatively sharp fillets.- In certain applications, the higher expansion properties of plastic materials maycreate the need for a greater depth of engagement between mating gears than permittedby the other standard tooth forms.As a result of this preference fo

23、r a different tooth form, members of the plastic gear moldingindustry have adopted their own individual sets of tooth proportions. One set that has gainedwide usage by plastic gear designers, and is often specified in place of the AGMAFine-Pitch Standard, has been developed by William McKinley 1. Be

24、cause these toothforms contain the preferential features for molded plastic gears and because they arealready well recognized in the industry, they were used, with some changes, as models inthe preparation of this standard. The first of the four variations in this set has a depth ofengagement, or wo

25、rking depth, that is the same as in the above mentioned AGMAstandards. The other three have increased depths of engagement in varying degrees. Thisstandard has selected only the first variation, which is the one in widest use, as the model forthe new tooth proportions. However, data similarly based

26、on the other three variations areincluded in annex B.The tooth forms in this standard are defined with the use of the basic rack concept. For thosethat might be unfamiliar with this concept, a detailed description of the basic rack is includedas annex A.Suggestions for the improvement of this standa

The actualtooth outline for a gear with a specified number ofteeth and value of tooth thickness wi

35、ll be generallydetermined by the generating action of this rack-shaped outline. (Some features of the tooth outlinemay be determined by additional considerations.See 5.8.1, 5.8.2 and 5.8.3.) A description of thisbasic rack concept and how it is applied to varioustypes of gears is given in annex A.4

36、Standard basic rack for plastic gearsA standard basic rack is established in this AGMAstandard. Plastic gears with tooth forms defined bythis basic rack will mesh properly with both AGMAfine-pitch and ISO coarse-pitch gears. (Threeexperimental basic racks with greater workingdepths are defined in an

37、nex B.)NOTE: This basic rack is an optional alternative to oth-er AGMA basic racks. It will often be preferred for thoseapplications in which tooth bending strength is a majorfactor in the design of plastic gears. See 4.4.4.1 DesignationsThis basic rack is designated as:AGMA Plastic Gearing Toothfor

Values ofthe dimensional features are listed in table 2 alongwith comparative values for the AGMA fine-pitchstandard and the ISO mostly coarse-pitch standard.All of t

In actualpractice, the corner

When any such change is desired, a descriptionin an appropriate form must

45、be included in the gearspecifications.4.3.1 Profile modificationIt is sometimes desirable to make slight modifica-tions to the involute profile of the gear. One suchexample is tip relief. This is the removal of a smallsliver of material along a portion of the involuteleading to the tooth tip. Tip re

46、lief will often benefitgear action by reducing the abrupt action accompa-nying load transfer between adjoining teeth,especially when the teeth are deflecting under aheavy load. Such modification to the tooth profilecan be introduced by an appropriate modification tothe straight-sided flank of the ba

47、sic rack tooth.When this is desired, a drawing of the modified basicrack is required as part of the gear specifications. Anexample of such a modification applied to the AGMAPT tooth form is shown in figure 2. Annex D providesequations for calculating the effect of thismodification on certain feature

48、s of the generatedtooth.4.3.2 Tooth- tip diameter modificationIt is sometimes necessary to change the outsidediameter of external gears or the inside diameter ofinternal gears from the diameters defined by thebasic rack. Some of these considerations arediscussed in 5.8.1 and annex C. Such adjustment

49、sdo not significantly depart from the standard basicrack and do not require a special basic rack drawingshowing the modification. The specification of theoutside or inside diameter is, by itself, sufficient todefine the modification.4.4 Comparison to other AGMA basic racksThis new basic rack is similar to the other listedAGMA basic racks. Gears derived from all of themwill generally operate together. However, there aredifferences which, for the new basic rack, may resultin plastic gear designs of enhanced load capacityand, particularly
