Description
Summary:ObjectiveIn order to solve the problem that the gear rack of automobile steering gear cannot be modeled directly and the repetitive work is too much, a three-dimensional parametric modeling method based on SolidWorks software secondary development was proposed to realize the staggered shaft variable transmission ratio curve rack.MethodsFirstly, the macro program code was written in SolidWorks/VBA for parametric modeling of gear cutter and rack blank respectively. Then, according to the meshing motion relation of pinion and rack and the line angle transmission ratio curve, the generating maching process was simulated, and the 3D model of the rack with variable transmission ratio curve was obtained. Finally, the correctness of the model was verified by the example and error analysis.ResultsThe example verification shows that this modeling method is feasible and can significantly improve the efficiency of product design.
