Hob peeling method and cutting tool for producing at least partially rounded tooth tips
11396056 · 2022-07-26 · ·

A method for providing teeth on working gears by cutting, wherein the working gear and the cutting tool are driven in rotation at a predetermined speed ratio along axes oriented at an intersection angle. The flanks of the cutting teeth form edges having flank cutting sections arranged on the edges of a gap between two adjacent teeth and extend along a first contour line, and which as a result of an advance in the direction of the working gear engage in a cutting manner to produce teeth having a flank contour predetermined by the shape of the cutting edge. Each of the flank cutting sections is adjoined by a tip cutting section which extends along a second contour line in the region of the base of the cutting tooth gap, wherein the second contour line is curved such that at least partially rounded tooth tips are produced on the teeth.

Method for machining a toothing and toothing machine designed for same, as well as computer program product for same

The invention relates to a method for machining a toothing (2) having an axis of rotation (C), in which a machining tool (4), which is rotationally driven about its axis of rotation (B), removes material from the toothing while executing a relative motion between the machining tool and toothing to generate a flank geometry of the toothing, which has been predefined over the full width of the toothing, in a machining operation, wherein the predefined flank geometry matches a motion control that defines a motion path of the tool center with respect to the toothing axis of rotation, said motion control having a defined, non-vanishing axial advancement with a defined advancing motion between machining tool and toothing, wherein in a first machining process, the relative motion is only executed for generating a part, more particularly a significant part (5), of the flank geometry according to this motion control, while a further part, more particularly the remaining part (6), of the flank geometry is generated in a second machining process, in which the distance between the tool center and the toothing axis of rotation with respect to the fixed motion path changes in a manner wherein the tool center moves away from the toothing, and in which the change to the machining operation caused thereby is counteracted by an additionally executed change in motion of the relative motion with respect to the motion control of the first machining process.

INDEPENDENT PRESSURE ANGLE CORRECTIONS FOR POWER SKIVING
20220009015 · 2022-01-13 ·

A power skiving method wherein three-dimensional cutter rotations relative to gear workpiece tooth flank surfaces are carried out so as to reposition the cutter relative to a gear workpiece so as to achieve a decrease and/or an increase in the pressure angle of the tooth flank surfaces. The method can be applied independently to left and right flank surfaces of a tooth slot or the rotations may be superimposed on one another to realize pressure angle corrections on both tooth flanks of a tooth slot.

A method for producing gears, wherein in a first step a set of teeth is formed by means of a skiving wheel rotationally driven by a tool spindle in a workpiece gear rotationally driven synchronously thereto by a workpiece spindle, wherein the workpiece spindle and the tool spindle are at an axis intersection angle to each other and the advancement occurs in the tooth-flank extension direction, and wherein in a second step at least some teeth of the set of teeth are machined by means of a tooth-machining tool. A combined tool is used, in the case of which the toothmachining tool and the skiving wheel are fixedly connected to each other. Between the two steps, the combined tool remains connected to the tool spindle and the workpiece gear remains connected to the workpiece spindle. Between the two steps, merely the relative position of the tool spindle in relation to the workpiece spindle and the rotational speed ratio of the two spindles are changed.
