Abstract: Computer extended Descriptive Geometry (CeDG) is a new approach to solve and build computer models of three dimensional (3D) geometrical systems through descriptive geometry procedures that have demonstrated reliability and accuracy. CeDG may calculate a parametric algebraic exact form for the spatial curves generated in the intersection of two surfaces, as well as of the flattened pattern of any developable surface involved in those encounters. This study presents first the theoretical foundations and methodo… Show more

Descriptive geometry has indispensable applications in many engineering activities. A summary of these is provided in the first chapter of this paper, preceded by a brief introduction into the methods of representation and mathematical recognition related to our research area, such as projection perpendicular to a single plane, projection images created by perpendicular projection onto two mutually perpendicular image planes, but placed on one plane, including the research of curves and movements, visual representation and perception relying on a mathematical approach, and studies on toothed driving pairs and tool geometry in order to place the development presented here among them. As a result of the continuous variability of the technological environment according to various optimization aspects, the engineering activities must also be continuously adapted to the changes, for which an appropriate approach and formulation are required from the practitioners of descriptive geometry, and can even lead to improvement in the field of descriptive geometry. The imaging procedures are always based on the methods and theorems of descriptive geometry. Our aim was to examine the spatial variation in the wear of the tool edge and the machining of the components of toothed drive pairs using two cameras. Resolving contradictions in spatial geometry reconstruction research is a constant challenge, to which a possible answer in many cases is the searching for the right projection direction, and positioning cameras appropriately. A special method of enumerating the possible infinite viewpoints for the reconstruction of tool surface edge curves is presented in the second part of this paper. In the case of the monitoring the shape geometry, taking into account the interchangeability of the projection directions, i.e., the property of symmetry, all images made from two perpendicular directions were taken into account. The procedure for determining the correct directions in a mathematically exact way is also presented through examples. A new criterion was formulated for the tested tooth edge of the hob to take into account the shading of the tooth next to it. The analysis and some of the results of the Monge mapping, suitable for the solution of a mechanical engineering task to be solved in a specific technical environment, namely defining the conditions for camera placements that ensure reconstructibility are also presented. Taking physical shadowing into account, conclusions can be drawn about the degree of distortion of the machined surface from the spatial deformation of the edge curve of the tool reconstructed with correctly positioned cameras.

Computer modelling of technical constructions is increasingly carried out using software that includes more detailed knowledge, which requires an increase in the level as well as an expansion of the scope of the geometric knowledge. A significant part of motion transmission mechanisms are worm drive pairs, for which the separation of the parts dealing with the theoretical and practical problems found in the literature can be experienced in numerous instances. Due to the different technical features, in many cases the helical surfaces are not designed and manufactured in a geometrically correct way, or the best solution is not the compulsory chosen. The geometric model describing the production process of the worm surfaces provides the basis for examining the deviation between the surface mathematically determined by the designer and the surface produced. An integrated mathematical kinematic model was developed for the production geometrical analysis of the elements of cylindrical and conical worm gear drive pairs for machining with a traditional thread grinding machine, which causes a serious pitch fluctuating error among several other problems in the case of machining the conical worm. Modelling of the production process of surfaces and the simultaneous study of the manufacturing errors is basically performed with the toolbox of descriptive geometry, including the use of the projective invariants. Knowing the inheritance of the invariants of projective geometry, the aim was the mathematical generalization of the integrated model and the creation of a projective relationship between the reference surfaces of conical and cylindrical spiral surfaces. As a result, the improved constructive geometric model was created, in which the method of analytically creating the projective geometric relationship between the reference surfaces of conical and cylindrical helicoid surfaces has been described for the first time in this article. This procedure is considered the most important result of the present article. Another significance of the further development presented is that during production of the conical helicoid surface, the thread pitch fluctuation has been eliminated. The results obtained, consisting of an improved geometric model, lead to a new geometry of the technological environment regarding the relative position of the cutting tool and the workpiece as well as the relative motion between them.
