Dynamic Contact Analysis for RV Reducer

Abstract

We make a dynamic contact analysis for a pair of gears in the first stage device of the RV reducer by the 3 d modeling software Pro/E and the finite element analysis software Abaqus. The simulation results are the dynamic changes of the stress distribution on the tooth and the results are compared with the allowable values and the theoretical position. Both intuitively show the of tooth stress distribution of tooth in the RV reducer, and verify the reliability of the gear strength.
