SystemModel["RotatingMachinery.Gears.SpurGear"]
This component contains the mechanical properties of a spur gearwheel, as well as the visualization.
A circle involute, or simply involute, is a curve defined by the endpoint of a tangent that is rolled up from a circle. The circle involute is used to generate the profile of the teeth on the gear.
Figure 1: Gear teeth.
z = Number of teeth
m = Gear module ( = circular pitch/π])
alpha0 = Reference profile angle (normally 20°)
x = Profile shift coefficient
Figure 2 shows the gear parameter tab the parameters above are set.
Figure 2: Gear parameters tab.
The two frames frame_a and frame_b should be connected to either a fixed point or some kind of beam. They do not have to be connected at both ends.
The two frames frame_to_GearForceCalculation and frame_to_GearForceCalculation1 can be connected to a GearForceCalculation, [1, 2], component if the forces between two outer spur gears need to be calculated.
The spur gear is turned into an inner spur gear by setting isInnerGear to true. By default, it is set to false.
Turning Animation to On in the fixedFrame component will attach a coordinate system at the center of the gearwheel in the animation.
