STRUCTURAL DESIGN OF NON-STANDARD GEAR TRANSMISSION

Non-standard gear transmissions are increasingly finding their applications in practice, primarily being designed for various applications. While standard circular gears are designed for a constant gear ratio, non-standard gears have a variable gear ratio that changes. This paper addresses the issue of designing non-circular gears for a specific range of gear ratios. An elliptical shape for the gears was chosen. The uniqueness of the proposed solution lies in selecting an ellipse as the evolute for creating the involute curve of the gear tooth.
