Casimir rack and pinion

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2007
As the technological advances lead to miniaturization of mechanical devices, engineers face new challenges that are brought about by the fundamentally different rules that apply at small scales. One of the biggest problems in small machines is the excessive wear of the many surfaces that work in contact with each other, which severely constrains the ...

The mathematical model and a case study of the cosine face gear drive that has a predesigned fourth order function of transmission errors and a localized bearing contact

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2019
Traditionally, a face gear drive uses an involute pinion. If the number of teeth of pinion is smaller than the minimum number of teeth without undercutting, the pinion will be undercut. To avoid undercutting, it is necessary to quit using involute pinion.
