Double circular arc gear has irreversible helical surface, so it can only be usedIndexing cutting.The remanufactured double-arc gear is cut using the indexing generating methodIn the process of single tooth machining, only single tooth or interval distribution is required.of the tooth is cut, and the feed sequence is specified as first feeding along the tooth directionThen feed along the tooth profile.According to the principle of kinematics, the necessary and sufficient condition for conjugate two tooth surfaces isThere is a common tangent plane at the contact pointFrom the perspective of physical concepts, if the contact pointThere is no common normal line and there is no contact point between the tooth surfaces of the two meshing gears.For the moving speed vector, the two tooth surfaces will be engaged or disengaged with each other,causing interference phenomena and reducing the continuity of gear transmission.

The mathematical expression of the principle of kinematics is

The double-arc rack equation [12-15] is shown in equation (2)

The normal line of the contact point of the remanufactured double circular arc tooth surface is obtained from the above equationvector n is

Due to the particularity of the feeding sequence, the single tooth indexing generating process requiresConsider the feed rate along the tooth direction.Use the instantaneous rotation method to solve the instantaneous contactThe relative velocity at point , vyd1d is not at the location of the instantaneous contact point Q, noTo directly add vectors, we need to move them to point Q.To ensure the original effect, add a direction opposite to point QVelocity vector – vd1d , -vd1d and v at point Od1d constitutes the speed couple Md1dAs shown in formula (4):
