Stress Analysis of a Bevel-Gear Train


Problem: Determine the bending and surface stresses and safety factors in a straight bevel gearset
made of the same steel materials, and operating under the same conditions for the same
5-year life as in Example 12-7.
Given: From Example 12-7:
Transmitted power P  10 hp Pinion shaft speed ωp  2500 rpm
Tooth numbers Np  20 Ng  35

Size factor Ks  1 Cs  Ks
Surface factor Cf  1
Velocity factor Kv  0.652 Cv  Kv
Hardness factor CH  1 Temperature factor CT  1
Reliability factor CR  1 Life factor CL  0.890

Elastic coefficient Cp  2276 psi
From this section:
Crowning factor Cxc  1 Kx  Cxc
Stress adj. factor Cb  0.634 Mounting factor Cmd  1.5
Solution: See Mathcad file EX1302.

6. Look up the bending geometry factors for pinion and gear in Figure 13-5 to find Jp  0.237 and Jg  0.201 .
7 Find the bending stress in the pinion from equation 13.9 using Jp.
2  Tp pd Ka Km Ks
σbp    σbp  19.893 ksi (f)
dp F  Jp Kv Kx

8 Find the bending stress in the gear from equation 13.9 using Jg.
2  Tp pd Ka Km Ks
σbg    σbg  23.456 ksi (g)
dp F  Jg Kv Kx

Note that the gear tooth is more highly stressed than the pinion tooth because the long addendum on the
pinion makes it stronger at the expense of the short-adden- dum gear tooth.

9. Look up the surface geometry factor for this combination of pinion and gear in Figure 13-6 to find I  0.076 .
Use this in equation 13.11 to find TD.

10. Since TD > Tp , z = 0.667 . Use these data to find the surface stress with equation 13.10.
