... for the simultaneous meshing of four wheels on the basis of geometric conditioning factors. These calculations will be illustrated by numerical applications. Finally, particular cases of planetary gearboxes and a gearbox with equal idler pinions are studied, with the conclusion that their application is appropriate...

...Ligang Yao; Jian S. Dai; Guowu Wei This paper investigates the meshing errors of the toroidal drive, reveals three typical latency errors and develops the error analysis in this typical type of gear drives. Having identified the latency errors, the error integrated coordinate transformation...

... of the cam. This results in the loss of contacts between a few rollers and cam profile. This paper investigates the effects of such loss of contacts on the transmission by analyzing the meshing procedure of the mechanism. The number of the self-intersection points on the pitch curve is determined in terms...
