PINION ASSEMBLY FOR US WITH ROLLS OR THE LIKE Filed June 30, 1939 4 Sheets-Sheet 3 Jan. 9, 1940. w. DITGES` 2,186,522
PINION ASSEMBLY FOR USE WITH ROLLS 0R THE LIKE Filed June 30, 1939 4 Sheets-Sheet 4 gmc/Mofo MWWW with the pinions I8 and 20. Therefore, pinion I9 transmits the entire rotative effort at four points diagonally opposed. It is obvious that `the resulting forces imposed on the main driving pinion are balanced and relieve the pinion bearings of all pressures. y
In Fig. 5, I have diagrammatically illustrated a conventional assembly of pinions arranged in relative positions to work rolls inY the lattener. It is to be observed that pinion I9a is the driver which obtains its power from a source not shown. Pinion I9a meshes with pinions I6a and I 'Ia which in turn mesh with pinions I8a and 29a.
It is obvious that in transmitting the total power, pinion I9a transmits one-iifth of the total power to the roll in the flattener to which it is connected. 'I'he rest of the 'power or fourfifths of the' total power will have to be transmitted through the pinion teeth of pinion I90L.V
As each pinion requires one-fifth of the total power, it will be necessary to transmit two-fifths at the meshing point of pinion I9a and I6a and I9a and IIa, and one-.fifth at the meshing point of pinion I6a and I8a and I'Ia and 20a..
An analysis of the forces to be transmitted through thesepinions shows the tooth loads and resultant bearing loads to bein excess for practical consideration, vFor example, attention is directed tofpinion IIa, where the tooth load rei action I and `the spreading force reaction I, re.Y
sulting frompinion I 9a transmitting two-fifths of the total power to pinion I 6a, show a lre-` sultant as indicated S. F. & T. L. R. 1. Now pinion I6a in transmitting one-fifth lof the total power to pinion I8a shows atooth` load reaction of Tl L "R, 42 and a spreading force reaction of S. F. R. 2. The resultant being Sv. F. -& T. L. R. 2. The resultant of these two resultants is indicated as resultantI 1 and 2 which is the force to be absorbed by .the bearings of pinion I6a.
The resultant force for pinion I8a is even more extreme than that of pinion Ilia, as shown graphically. Thus, one is confronted with an impossible condition, and tomake it possible, I
.- resort to the construction shown in Fig. .6
wherein-,I retain pinions I6, I1, I8, I9 and 20 and add two idler pinions 2| and 22;
" Pinion I9 is still the driver and transmits the total power to the work rolls of the attener.
.Howeven in this assembly the transmission is different than in Fig. 5 in that pinion I9 transmitsan equal amount of power' to each ofthe work rolls ofthe lattener by transmitting onefth to each pinion I6, I1, I8 and 29,. and onefifth directztov the corresponding work roll to.
Which it is connected. It is to be observed that pinions I5 and I8 do not mesh, nor do I'I and 20 as'they did'in Fig. 5. Thus, the one-fifththat pinion I9 transmits to `each of pinions 'I8 and 2i! is through idlers 2| and l22, respectively.
. It will be obvious to one familiar with the art; that the maximum vtooth loads in arrangement Fig. 6=are only one-half of the maximum tooth loads establishedfin Fig. 5, and that for thisreason theres'ultant forces are of an equally u reduced magnitude.
It is also obvious that in Fig. 5 the'maximum force is set up in vthe driving pinion |911` on account of the unbalanced transmission of force typical ofthis arrangement whereas in Fig. 6 the corresponding forces in driving pinion I9 are only about 33% of that in Fig. 5 and are diametrically opposed and therefore balanced. Thisbalanced condition of forces' relieves the bearings' of themain driving pinion of all loads "such manner that the same may be readily understood by those: skilled in the art, I am aware that changes may be made in the details disclosed withoutdeparting from the spirit of the invention as expressed in the claims.
