Description

この発明は、回転伝達に使用される樹脂製はすば歯車に関し、特に歯車軸のミスアライメントに起因する回転伝達誤差の減少を目的として歯形修整が施された樹脂製はすば歯車に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a resin helical gear used for rotation transmission, and more particularly to a resin helical gear whose tooth profile has been modified for the purpose of reducing rotation transmission errors caused by misalignment of gear shafts. is there.

従来から、はすば歯車を使用した動力伝達装置の技術分野において、歯車軸のミスアライメントに起因する回転伝達誤差を減少させる様々な技術が開発されてきた。例えば、はすば歯車は、歯当たりを歯幅中央部に集中させるために、歯すじ方向に適当なふくらみをつけるような加工（クラウニング）を施し、歯車軸のミスアライメントに起因する回転伝達誤差を減少させるようにした技術が知られている（特許文献１、２参照）。   Conventionally, in the technical field of power transmission devices using helical gears, various techniques have been developed to reduce rotation transmission errors caused by gear shaft misalignment. For example, helical gears are processed (crowning) in order to concentrate the tooth contact at the center of the width of the teeth, so that the gears are properly swelled (crowning), and rotation transmission errors due to gear shaft misalignment. There is known a technique for reducing the above (see Patent Documents 1 and 2).

This is a composite surface with the arc crowning surface 18 that gradually decreases the tooth thickness. The tooth surface 11 of the tooth 2 having the involute tooth shape remains as an intersection of the start position of the tooth tip modification surface 16, the start position of the tooth root modification surface 17, and the vertex position of the arc crowning surface 18. Yes.

本発明に係る樹脂製はすば歯車は、歯形修整を施さない樹脂製はすば歯車と比較し、歯車軸のミスアライメントに起因する回転伝達誤差を減少させ、歯車軸のミスアライメントがあった場合でも回転伝達精度を向上させることができる。   The resin helical gear according to the present invention reduces the rotation transmission error caused by the misalignment of the gear shaft and has the misalignment of the gear shaft, compared with the resin helical gear that is not subjected to tooth profile modification. Even in this case, the rotation transmission accuracy can be improved.

片歯面噛み合い試験は、株式会社小笠原プレシジョンラボラトリー製の片歯面噛み合い試験機（ＭＥＡＴＡ−４）を使用して行った。この片歯面噛み合い試験に使用される駆動側はすば歯車２４及び被動側はすば歯車２５の歯車諸元は、歯数（Ｚ）３６、モジュール（ｍ）０．７、圧力角（α）２０°、ねじれ角（β）２０°、歯幅７ｍｍ、並歯となっている。また、歯車軸２０，２１のアライメント誤差（図２（ａ）及び図２（ｃ）に示すθ）は、本実施形態に係る樹脂製はすば歯車１が使用される条件を考慮して０．２５°と０．５°とした。また、片歯面噛み合い試験は、本実施形態に係る樹脂製はすば歯車１が使用される条件（主に、０．１〜０．１５Ｎｍの負荷トルクが作用した状態で使用される）を考慮して、０．１Ｎｍ、０．１５Ｎｍの負荷トルクを付与して行った。そして、標準歯形（インボリュート歯形）を有する駆動側はすば歯車２４は、樹脂（ＰＯＭ（Ｍ２５相当））製のはすば歯車（無修整はすば歯車）が使用された。また、被動側はすば歯車２５は、回転伝達誤差の良否判断の基準となる樹脂（ＰＯＭ（Ｍ２５相当））製の無修整はすば歯車（図示せず）、クラウニング（クラウニング量２０μｍ）を施した樹脂（ＰＯＭ（Ｍ２５相当））製はすば歯車（比較例）、本発明品に係る樹脂（ＰＯＭ（Ｍ２５相当））製はすば歯車１が使用される。なお、片歯面噛み合い試験機は、歯車軸２０，２１のアライメント誤差を付与できないため（駆動側はすば歯車２４の歯車軸２０を被動側はすば歯車２５の歯車軸２１に対して傾けた状態で取り付けることができない構造であるため）、基準の駆動側はすば歯車２４（β＝２０°）を歯２２のねじれ角（β）が１９．５°（θ＝０．５°）と１９．７５°（θ＝０．２５°）の駆動側はすば歯車２４に代えることにより、図２（ａ−２）に示す噛み合い状態を構成し、また、基準の駆動側はすば歯車２４（β＝２０°）を歯２２のねじれ角（β）が２０．２５°（θ＝０．２５°）と２０．５°（θ＝０．５°）の駆動側はすば歯車２４に代えることにより、図２（ｃ−２）に示す噛み合い状態を構成するようになっている。また、片歯面噛み合い試験機は、駆動側はすば歯車２４の歯車軸２０と被動側はすば歯車２５の歯車軸２１の試験時の軸間距離が、理論軸間距離にバックラッシ確保のための０．２５ｍｍを加えた距離になっている。ここで、ＰＯＭ（Ｍ２５）は、ポリプラスチックス株式会社製の商品名「ジュラコン」（登録商標）のグレードＭ２５を示している。   The single tooth surface meshing test was performed using a single tooth surface meshing tester (MEATA-4) manufactured by Ogasawara Precision Laboratories. The gear specifications of the driving-side helical gear 24 and the driven-side helical gear 25 used in this one-tooth engagement test are as follows: number of teeth (Z) 36, module (m) 0.7, pressure angle (α ) 20 °, torsion angle (β) 20 °, tooth width 7 mm, parallel teeth. Further, the alignment error (θ shown in FIGS. 2A and 2C) of the gear shafts 20 and 21 is 0 in consideration of the condition in which the resin helical gear 1 according to the present embodiment is used. .25 ° and 0.5 °. In addition, the one-tooth engagement test is performed under conditions in which the resin helical gear 1 according to this embodiment is used (mainly used in a state where a load torque of 0.1 to 0.15 Nm is applied). In consideration, a load torque of 0.1 Nm and 0.15 Nm was applied. A helical gear (unmodified helical gear) made of resin (POM (equivalent to M25)) was used as the driving-side helical gear 24 having a standard tooth profile (involute tooth profile). The driven helical gear 25 is made of an unmodified helical gear (not shown) made of a resin (POM (equivalent to M25)) and a crowning (crowning amount 20 μm), which are used as criteria for judging whether the rotation transmission error is good or bad. A helical gear (comparative example) made of applied resin (POM (equivalent to M25)) and a helical gear 1 made of resin (POM (equivalent to M25)) according to the present invention are used. In addition, since the single-tooth meshing tester cannot give an alignment error between the gear shafts 20 and 21 (the drive side is inclined with respect to the gear shaft 21 of the helical gear 25 and the driven side is inclined with respect to the gear shaft 21 of the helical gear 25). Therefore, the reference drive side has a helical gear 24 (β = 20 °) and the torsion angle (β) of the tooth 22 is 19.5 ° (θ = 0.5 °). And 19.75 ° (θ = 0.25 °) on the driving side is replaced with the helical gear 24 to form the meshing state shown in FIG. 2 (a-2), and the reference driving side is the helical side. The drive side helical gear of the gear 24 (β = 20 °) with the twist angle (β) of the teeth 22 being 20.25 ° (θ = 0.25 °) and 20.5 ° (θ = 0.5 °). By changing to 24, the meshing state shown in FIG. 2 (c-2) is configured. In addition, the single-tooth surface meshing tester ensures that the inter-axis distance during the test of the gear shaft 20 of the helical gear 24 on the driving side and the gear shaft 21 of the helical gear 25 on the driven side is backlash to the theoretical inter-axis distance. For this reason, the distance is 0.25 mm. Here, POM (M25) indicates grade M25 of trade name “Duracon” (registered trademark) manufactured by Polyplastics Co., Ltd.

図４に示す片歯面噛み合い試験の結果（第１実験結果）及び図５に示す片歯面噛み合い試験の結果（第２実験結果）によれば、本発明品は、アライメント誤差が無い状態（駆動側はすば歯車２４のねじれ角βが２０°の状態）、及びアライメント誤差がある状態（駆動側はすば歯車２４のねじれ角βが１９．５°、１９．７５°、２０．２５°、２０．５°の状態）において、回転伝達誤差が無修整はすば歯車よりも小さく、歯形修整の効果が大きく現れている。比較例は、無修整はすば歯車と比較し、アライメント誤差が無い状態（駆動側はすば歯車２４のねじれ角βが２０°の状態）、及びアライメント誤差がある状態（駆動側はすば歯車２４のねじれ角βが１９．７５°の状態）で回転伝達誤差が大きく（悪く）なっている。したがって、比較例は、無修整はすば歯車によって生じる回転伝達誤差を減少させるために、無修整はすば歯車に代えて使用することができない。   According to the result of the one-tooth contact test shown in FIG. 4 (first experiment result) and the result of the one-tooth contact test shown in FIG. 5 (second experiment result), the product of the present invention has no alignment error ( The driving side is a state in which the helical angle of the helical gear 24 is 20 °), and there is an alignment error (the helical side of the helical gear 24 on the driving side is 19.5 °, 19.75 °, 20.25). In the state of 2 ° and 20.5 °, the rotation transmission error is smaller than that of the helical gear, and the effect of the tooth profile correction is significant. In the comparative example, compared with an unmodified helical gear, there is no alignment error (drive side helical gear 24 has a twist angle β of 20 °), and there is an alignment error (drive side is helical). When the twist angle β of the gear 24 is 19.75 °), the rotation transmission error is large (bad). Accordingly, the comparative example cannot be used in place of the non-modified helical gear in order to reduce the rotation transmission error caused by the non-modified helical gear.

以上の説明から明らかなように、本実施形態に係る樹脂製はすば歯車１（本発明品）は、主に使用される条件下（負荷トルクが０．１〜０．１５Ｎｍの場合）において、歯形修整を施さない樹脂製はすば歯車と比較し、歯車軸２０，２１のミスアライメントに起因する回転伝達誤差を減少させ、歯車軸２０，２１のミスアライメントがあった場合でも回転伝達精度を向上させることができる。   As is clear from the above description, the resin helical gear 1 according to the present embodiment (the product of the present invention) is mainly used under the conditions (when the load torque is 0.1 to 0.15 Nm). Compared with resin helical gears without tooth profile modification, the rotation transmission error caused by misalignment of the gear shafts 20 and 21 is reduced, and even if there is a misalignment of the gear shafts 20 and 21, the rotation transmission accuracy Can be improved.

なお、本実施形態に係る樹脂製はすば歯車１は、上記実施形態に限定されず、負荷トルクの大きさに応じて、歯先修整面１６及び歯元修整面１７の開始位置と円弧クラウニング面１８の頂点位置とを適宜変更し、歯形修整量Δ１〜Δ３を適宜変更してもよい。   Note that the resin helical gear 1 according to the present embodiment is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and depending on the magnitude of the load torque, the start positions of the tooth tip modification surface 16 and the tooth base modification surface 17 and the arc crowning. The apex position of the surface 18 may be changed as appropriate, and the tooth profile modification amounts Δ1 to Δ3 may be changed as appropriate.

しかしながら、本発明に係る樹脂製はすば歯車１（被動側はすば歯車２５）は、図６に示す実施態様に限定されるものでなく、図７に示すように、２段歯車の小径はすば歯車２５ａであって、この小径はすば歯車２５ａが駆動側はすば歯車２４と噛み合う構成の場合、小径はすば歯車２５ａの歯２３の歯幅Ｗ３と駆動側はすば歯車２４の歯２２の歯幅Ｗ２とが異なる（Ｗ３＞Ｗ２）ため、クラウニングの頂点位置Ｐ２が駆動側はすば歯車２４と噛み合う有効歯幅Ｗ２の中央ＣＬ２に位置するように形成される。 (Modification 1)

Since the tooth width W2 of the 24 teeth 22 is different (W3> W2), the crowning apex position P2 is formed at the center CL2 of the effective tooth width W2 that meshes with the helical gear 24 on the driving side.
