Description
Summary:Aiming at the particularity of a multiple-stage closed-loop gear transmission system for 3D circular braiding machine, the model of gear transmission system in radial braiding machine was simplified. The non-linear dynamic equations of a n-elements closed-loop gear transmission system with symmetrical structure including static transmission error, the random disturbance of meshing damping and backlash were considered. For convenience of calculation n = 3, the equations were solved numerically by using Runge-Kutta. The dynamic transmission error(DTE) with different backlash, dynamic meshing forces with and without the random disturbance of meshing damping, the amplitude of dynamic transmission error at n = 1000 r/min and b = 2.65 × 10<sup>−5</sup> m, root mean square(RMS) of DTE and the mean value of DTE of the first pair of gears were analyzed. The simulation results show that different backlash and the random disturbance of meshing damping have a great influence on the dynamic displacement error and meshing force of the gear pair, and RMS and the mean value of DTE changes at different rotational speeds. The results will provide a reference for realizing the smoothness of the closed-loop gear transmission system with symmetrical structure for 3D braiding machine and have great practical significance for improving the braiding quality.
