Program 60-1441—Pin and Span Measurement: External Involute Gears

1

Introduction This model calculates either the measurement over pins/balls or the length over a block of gear teeth from the tooth thickness. Measurement over pins or balls is used extensively for gears and splines and is a very accurate method for control of tooth thickness. By using different size pins (or balls) a rough check can also be made of the involute profile. If the number of teeth in the gear is even the pins will be opposite each other and the micrometer will lie in the plane of rotation of the gear (transverse plane) regardless of the helix angle. The measuring contact points will be on a centerline of the gear. If the number of teeth is odd and the gear is a spur gear the micrometer will lie in the plane of rotation but the contact points will not be on a centerline of the gear. If the number of teeth is odd and the gear is helical the micrometer will NOT lie in the plane of rotation and the contact points will not be on a centerline of the gear. The tipping of the micrometer out of the transverse plane makes the manual calculation of the size over pins difficult as the equations can not be solved directly and a loop procedure is necessary. For cylindrical involute gears, spur or helical, the measuring pins or balls will have their centers on the ball helix of the gear. The ball helix is the location of the center of a ball that is free to roll in the tooth space of the gear. The problem of finding the measurement over pins for a given tooth thickness and pin diameter then becomes a problem of finding the distance between the ball helixes. This is quite straight-forward for all gears except odd tooth helicals. In this case it is necessary to find the minimum distance between the ball helixes by some method where the first derivative of the distance can be forced to zero. This model contains such a procedure. The model also calculates the diameter of a pin (or ball) that will contact the tooth flanks at the diameter where the tooth thickness is equal to the space width. The closest “standard” pin is then found and given on the Power User form or TK Solver Variable Sheet. The model may be used when the tooth thickness is known and the measurement over pins or balls is needed or when the measurement is known and the tooth thickness is needed. In the first case we enter the tooth thickness and solve for the measurement. In the second case we enter the pin measurement and solve for the tooth thickness.

Measurement over a block of gear teeth (span size) to determine the tooth thickness is also widely used, especially for larger gears where measurement over pins is not practical due to the large distance to be measured. Another advantage in using span size instead of measuring over pins is the ease of handling only the micrometer or caliper. In addition, the right size pins may not be available or the gear may still be mounted on a machine and access to both sides may be difficult. The span measurement can be made with a “disc micrometer” or with a caliper. If the pitch is finer than about 12 or 13 it will be difficult to make the measurement with a micrometer or caliper. When the tooth space is not large enough to provide access, the measurement can be made on a shadowgraph at an enlarged scale in the case of spur gears. For high production work a simple go/no go gage can be used with a large saving of inspection time. When making span measurements using disc micrometers or calipers, the precise location on the tooth profile where the measuring device makes contact is not important. This is due to the fact that the distance being measured is the length of a base tangent line which remains constant no matter where the teeth are contacted. The “feel” will be much like measuring a cylindrical shaft. The model may be used when the tooth thickness is known and the span size is needed. In this case we enter the tooth thickness and solve for the span size. If the tooth thickness is not known we enter the number of teeth spanned and the measurement.

Examples Example 1 This example was selected to demonstrate the procedure to be followed for a solution for the size over pins given the tooth thickness and also to solve for the tooth thickness given the measured size over pins. The example is an odd tooth helical that does not have a “standard” pitch or tooth thickness. First we will find the measurement over pins when we know the normal tooth thickness at the reference pitch diameter. (The reference pitch diameter is the diameter found by dividing the number of teeth by the transverse pitch.) We have the following data available:

Number of teeth Normal Diametral Pitch Normal Pressure Angle Helix Angle Face Width # Outside Diameter * Root Diameter * True Involute Form Diameter * Normal Tooth Thickness # The face width is only necessary to enable the

model to check the possibility of using 3 pins or using span measuring. The model will solve the problem without the face width.

* These values are not necessary to obtain a size

over pins but are required for the model to check the contact diameter of the pins (or the mean caliper contact diameter for span measuring and to create a plot of the gears).

Open a new analysis and enter the known data. The data entry sequence and their numeric inputs are as follows: Number of teeth—13 Normal diametral pitch—12.5 Normal pressure angle—20 Helix angle—30 Face width—.75 Outside diameter—1.51 Root diameter—1.12 True involute form diameter—1.185 At this point the application will ask you to choose Tooth Thickness, Measurement Over Pins or Balls, or Span Size. For this example, choose Tooth Thickness and enter .16 for actual diameter. A dialog box will ask whether you want a plot; click Yes. The completed inputs are shown in Figure 1-1. The inputs and outputs of the solved model should look like Report 1-1. Fig. 1-1

Table 2

The model has solved for the radius over one pin, the measurement over two balls , the measurement over two pins and the measurement over three pins. If two balls are used they MUST be constrained to the transverse plane. If three pins are used the two pins on one side should be placed in adjacent axial spaces. The required face width to use three pins is also given. (If the face width of the gear is close to the minimum the use of 3 pins may be difficult.) A plot of the ball in contact with the teeth is available. Figure 1-2 is the plot. The section in the plot is through the plane of rotation (transverse plane) where the ball is in contact with one of the teeth. The dashed circle is the circle on the ball through the contact point. The solid circle is in front of the section and is the actual diameter of the ball. It can be seen that the ball extends above the outside diameter, is well above the root diameter and contacts the teeth above the TIF diameter. For external gears a pin may be

used instead of a ball and the location of the pin will be the same as the location of the ball.

Fig. 1-2

This gear is a low tooth number, odd tooth helical with a relatively high helix angle. This gear was chosen to demonstrate the difference between the size over two balls and the size over two pins. The size over two balls is the size obtained using the “Cosine(90 deg/number of teeth)” correction used for odd tooth spur gears. Unfortunately, it has been the practice by many in the gear industry to use this method for odd tooth helicals under the assumption that it is “good enough". This was done primarily because of the difficulty of the calculation without the computer and because it is time consuming to move the gear and mount it where a reading can be taken from the center of the arbor over one pin.

For odd tooth helicals of low helix angle and/or large numbers of teeth the difference between 2 ball and 2 pin measurements is not great. However, as the number of teeth comes down and/or the helix angle goes up the measurements using the spur gear correction factor soon become useless for any purpose. It may be of interest to you to try a few gears using this model to get a feel for the problem.

The next example illustrates how to use the model if you have measured a gear and wish to find the tooth thickness. In this case it is only necessary to enter the measurement over one pin, two balls, two pins or three pins along with the pin (or ball) size used and solve the model. We have left the numerical data the same so that you can see that we get the same tooth thickness and measured size any direction we choose to go.

Actual pin contact diameter 1.3157 in Now we will look at some examples using span size instead of pins. When making span measurements using disc micrometers or calipers, the precise location on the (involute) tooth profile where the measuring device makes contact is not important. This is due to the fact that the distance being measured is the length of a base tangent line which remains constant no matter where the teeth are contacted. The “feel” is much like measuring a cylindrical shaft. The model may be used when the tooth thickness is known and the span size is needed. In this case we enter the tooth thickness and solve for the span size. The same data is required for span size from tooth thickness as is required for pin size from tooth thickness.

Example 3 It is sometimes necessary to duplicate a gear which is no longer serviceable. If no specifications are available for the gear it is then necessary to determine what cutter might be used to duplicate the working flanks of the teeth. This model can be used to find a suitable diametral pitch and pressure angle to duplicate the gear. Once a cutter has been selected other UTS gear models can be used to check for usable gear outside diameter, root diameter, TIF diameter, etc. As an example, suppose we have a spur gear, or a segment of a gear, which we want to duplicate. Trial and error show that we can measure across 5 teeth without contacting the OD and 4 teeth without contacting the root. The difference between the 4 and 5 tooth readings will be the normal base pitch of the gear. (The normal base pitch is the distance between same handed flanks on the generating rack normal to the flanks. It is also the distance from one tooth flank on the gear to the next same handed flank along a line tangent to the base circle.) Better accuracy will be obtained if a number of readings are taken at 4 and at 5 teeth and then averaged. After taking a number of readings we find that the average measurement over 4 teeth is 1.8280 inches and over 5 teeth is 2.3118 inches. The difference is 0.4838 inch and this should be the normal base pitch of the gear. (CAUTION: If the readings vary by more than 0.003 inch or so, the gear may be too badly damaged to use this procedure.) The first step is to enter the known data—the number of teeth, the helix angle and the normal base pitch—in the Power User form, as shown in Figure 3-1. Any combination of nominal diametral pitch and pressure angle which produces the correct normal base pitch may be used. We will guess at a nominal pressure angle of 20 degrees. Enter 20 degrees and solve. The solution is shown in Report 3-1

Let’s try again with a guess of 22.5 degrees for the normal pressure angle. Report 3-2 is the solved model.

Change the normal diametral pitch to 6, enter one of the measured span sizes, blank the base pitch and solve. Figure 3-2 shows the completed Power User form, Report 3-3 the solved model.
