等高歯ハイポイドギヤに関する研究 : 第1報,歯切り設計諸元計算法  [in Japanese] Equi-Depth Tooth Hypoid Gear Using Formate Gear Cutting Method : 1st Report, Basic Dimensions for Gear Cutting  [in Japanese]

Problems concerning the tooth taper of a spiral bevel gear and a hypoid gear have long been discussed. However, it is said that an equi-depth tooth and a tapered tooth have both advantages and disadvantages, and it remains to be undetermined which of the two is more useful. Recently recession which has affected the American car industry and the spread of FF cars have resulted in the shortage of engineers knowledgeable of the Gleason system and skilled in handling gear cutting using Gleason machines. Thus the equi-depth tooth gear has become the focus of much attention. In this paper, we have studied the gear cutting method of the equi-depth tooth hypoid gear using the formate method of Gleason system. In this report, we described basic equations to obtain accurate gear dimensions for designing and gear cutting.
