摘要：阿基米德蝸桿輪齒面通常是用CAD來形成和模擬的。本文分析了多頭阿基米德蝸桿的加工特征和形成原則，建立了精確的模型，使設(shè)計參數(shù)化。并利用Pro/E軟件，應(yīng)用虛擬裝配和組件之間的相關(guān)性質(zhì)，模擬現(xiàn)實過程，實際制作蝸輪，建立準確的模型。另外，將生成的蝸輪，蝸桿組裝，同時對他們的運動進行模擬和分析。 關(guān)鍵詞：計算機輔助設(shè)計、參數(shù)化設(shè)計、運動分析、Pro/E、多頭ZA蝸桿傳動裝置 1、概述 阿基米德蝸桿輪齒面的制作，目前一般是用CAD軟件模擬制圖來代替真正的蝸輪齒形制造[1]。但是，繪出復(fù)雜而又精確的輪齒是非常困難的，此外，蝸輪蝸桿配合被歸類為左旋，右旋，單線程和多頭的。這就為簡歷模型增加了困難。本文主要從阿基米德蝸桿（ZA蝸桿）的加工原理入手，模擬其生產(chǎn)過程，并利用Pro/E中的關(guān)系函數(shù)，實現(xiàn)準確的ZA蝸桿參數(shù)模型。此外，在此基礎(chǔ)上也無形中制造出了蝸輪，以及蝸輪、蝸桿的組裝以及他們的運動分析。 2、建立模型的思維過程 為了模仿ZA蝸桿的傳動過程，繪制大小和形狀同參數(shù)化蝸輪滾刀相似的橫截面，以阿基米德螺旋線為軌跡，利用Pro/E軟件中的“變截面掃描/剪切”功能，在蝸桿毛坯上切一個槽，然后仿效槽，多頭蝸輪滾刀就生成了。使線程數(shù)和軌跡數(shù)充分參數(shù)化是制造模型的一個難點。關(guān)鍵點是：第一，要設(shè)置控制參數(shù)（右旋的參數(shù)值是1，左旋值是-1）和線程數(shù)，然后用方程建立阿基米德螺旋線，從而改變線程數(shù)。第二，仿效蝸桿插槽，它是設(shè)計師選擇路徑的“方向”所必須的，并選擇蝸桿坯料的軸線作為參考，建立第一個方向，輸入線程數(shù)等于蝸桿頭數(shù)，而且輸入螺距等于蝸桿各頭之間的間隔。 在完成蝸輪滾刀的參數(shù)化模型后，然后再在此基礎(chǔ)上，通過改變參數(shù)來產(chǎn)生蝸桿模型。蝸輪和蝸桿滾刀的不同之處在于蝸輪滾刀是刀片槽，而且他們之間的間隙大于蝸輪半徑。 蝸輪模式的獲得是采用蝸輪滾刀虛擬處理的方式。作者的基本思路是：在虛擬環(huán)境中，分別建立蝸輪滾刀和蝸輪毛坯，然后將他們放置于坐標系當(dāng)中，通過裝配幾何關(guān)系理論，使他們能夠互相調(diào)整。然后利用布爾減法計算在運動過程中不同位置時的參數(shù)，直到蝸輪已制作出整個外表面[2]。 3、建立相關(guān)參數(shù) 從以上的思路可以知道ZA蝸桿傳動的參數(shù)化設(shè)計與運動分析需要建立在諸如蝸輪滾刀部分、蝸桿部分，蝸輪滾刀和蝸桿滾刀之間的部件以及蝸輪和蝸桿之間的裝配等方面。為了實現(xiàn)參數(shù)化設(shè)計，這些部分需要設(shè)定基本的尺寸。 利用Pro/E提供的參數(shù)和關(guān)系的功能，按照蝸桿與蝸輪之間的參數(shù)關(guān)系，設(shè)置蝸輪、蝸桿的模數(shù)，蝸桿特征數(shù)，頭數(shù)，變位系數(shù)等，如表1所示。 4、建立準確地ZA蝸輪滾刀參數(shù)化模型 根據(jù)以上所有的思路，首先，設(shè)計者需要在蝸桿滾刀毛坯上切一個連續(xù)的刀槽，如圖1（a）所示，然后以蝸桿滾刀軸線為導(dǎo)向線，如同已經(jīng)生成的刀槽一樣繼續(xù)切槽，并連續(xù)幾次，直到達到一定的線程數(shù)（蝸桿頭數(shù)），而且蝸桿螺距等于蝸桿各頭之間的間距，如圖1（b）所示。 采用嵌入在Pro/E2.0中的程序模塊，用戶可以根據(jù)設(shè)計示意圖編輯程序，設(shè)計程序，而且可以驅(qū)動它的大小，使其充分和參數(shù)化。根據(jù)系統(tǒng)的提示，用戶導(dǎo)入不同的設(shè)計變量，蝸輪滾刀就可以生成滿足用戶要求的結(jié)果，如圖2所示。 5、建立虛擬加工和裝配的基準 5.1建立裝配基準 在Pro/E中，這些部分之間的組成元件和裝配式互相關(guān)聯(lián)的。為了實現(xiàn)蝸輪滾刀和蝸輪在裝配時的相對運動，設(shè)計者必須在組件和裝配部件分別建立相應(yīng)的基準點和基準軸，而且使這些數(shù)據(jù)參數(shù)化，如圖3所示。每個組件在這些數(shù)據(jù)的幫助下組裝。如果參數(shù)發(fā)生變化，蝸輪滾刀和蝸輪將根據(jù)給定的傳動比相對旋轉(zhuǎn)。 一般情況下，蝸輪傳動裝置兩角之間的夾角是90°。在裝配時，設(shè)計者必須建立兩個獨立的縱橫基準軸線和蝸輪滾刀和蝸輪裝配基準點，并使這些數(shù)據(jù)參數(shù)化。在裝配時，除了前面已加以說明的所必須的參數(shù)如模數(shù)，齒數(shù)外，驅(qū)動蝸輪滾刀和蝸輪公轉(zhuǎn)的角度參數(shù)也是必須要給出的。該參數(shù)設(shè)置成“角”，初始值是0。最后，要輸入關(guān)系如下： $d3=(m*q/2)*cos(jiao) /* x-蝸輪滾刀的定位點坐標； $d4=(m*q/2)*sin(jiao) /* y-蝸輪滾刀的定位點坐標； d5=m*π*z1*n/2 /* z-蝸輪滾刀的定位點坐標； d2=m*π*z1*n/2 /* z-蝸桿模擬運動中心定位點的坐標APNT0，即x坐標和y坐標都為0， / *蝸桿和蝸輪滾刀的定位軸是通過點APNT0和垂直線ASM_FRONT， / *坐標系統(tǒng)ACS0轉(zhuǎn)換為APNT0； $d7=-m*(q+z2+2*x2)/2 /* 中心定位基準點APNT2的Y坐標在蝸輪模擬毛坯的坐標系統(tǒng)ACS0； d8=m*π*z1*n/2 /*中心定位基準點APNT2的Y坐標在蝸輪模擬毛坯的坐標系統(tǒng)ACS0； / *蝸輪的定位軸是通過APNT2對齊和垂直ASM_RIGHT； / *坐標系統(tǒng)轉(zhuǎn)換為模擬蝸輪的APNT2，以默認坐標系統(tǒng)X軸的正方向為z軸正方向，y軸正方向與默認的坐標系統(tǒng)相同； $d9=m*z2/2*cos(jiao*z1/z2) /*蝸輪定位基準點的X坐標在蝸輪模擬坐標系統(tǒng)中； $d10=m*z2/2*sin(jiao*z1/z2) /*蝸輪定位基準點的Y坐標在蝸輪模擬坐標系統(tǒng)中。 5.2建立虛擬加工和組裝每部分所需的基準 為了建立蝸輪滾刀參考圓的一個基準點，在裝配期間，將滾刀軸與在組裝部件已經(jīng)建立好的蝸輪滾刀基準軸對齊，將滾刀參考圓的基準點與在組裝部件已經(jīng)建立好的相應(yīng)的基準點對齊，因為基準點在組裝部件上已經(jīng)被參數(shù)化，因此設(shè)計師可以實現(xiàn)圍繞基準軸旋轉(zhuǎn)滾刀。 利用函數(shù)關(guān)系是非常有必要的，基準點的輸入關(guān)系如下： d69=m*q/2 /*x-蝸輪滾刀的定位基準點坐標； d71=m*π*z1*n/2 /*z-蝸輪滾刀的定位基準點坐標。 用同樣的方法，建立蝸輪毛坯。為了裝配方便，設(shè)計師在建立模型時，他必須按照裝配關(guān)系注意蝸輪毛坯軸的方向以及與坐標系統(tǒng)的距離，并設(shè)置必要的組裝和模擬日期，輸入關(guān)系如下： D74=m*(q+x2*2)/2 /* z-蝸輪毛坯的定位基準點坐標。 6、虛擬加工和裝配 當(dāng)裝配各組件時，設(shè)計者需要分別校準蝸桿軸，蝸輪毛坯軸，蝸桿參考圓的基準點以及蝸輪毛坯參考圓的基準點同他們相應(yīng)的軸或者是已經(jīng)建立好的基準點。由于基準點已經(jīng)在裝配時參數(shù)化，設(shè)計人員可以實現(xiàn)蝸桿和蝸輪毛坯輪圍繞他們各自已經(jīng)改變參數(shù)的校準軸旋轉(zhuǎn)。 利用“工具 - 參數(shù)”功能，改變角的參數(shù)值（間隔角越小，蝸輪切割效果越好），該模型就可以生成。 利用“編輯 - 構(gòu)件運算 - 剪切”功能，切割坯料，然后，在蝸輪部分，設(shè)計者需要編輯修改前面已經(jīng)定義過的ID，并改變其每部分的屬性，確保其不隨參數(shù)值的變化而變化。 重復(fù)上述所有步驟，直到所有蝸輪槽都用蝸輪滾刀完全、均勻的切割出來。如圖4所示。改變蝸桿和蝸輪毛坯的參數(shù)，就可以生成不同的蝸輪，如圖5所示。 7、蝸桿傳動的虛擬裝配和運動分析 7.1虛擬裝配和模擬運動 更換蝸輪滾刀，以蝸桿作為基準組件，蝸輪和蝸桿利用針連接方式進行組裝，當(dāng)連接組裝時，模擬運動相應(yīng)的校準軸和基準點必須分別選擇，如圖6所示。 元件布置完成后，設(shè)計人員可以添加模塊的相應(yīng)驅(qū)動器和模擬運動。 選擇“應(yīng)用程序 - 機制”，設(shè)計師可以輸入機構(gòu)模塊；單擊“定義伺服電機”，分別建立新的“伺服電機1”和“伺服電機2”按鈕。選擇“類型”標簽，在組裝蝸輪和蝸桿時，分別選擇已經(jīng)定義過的校準軸以建立“聯(lián)合軸”，選擇“模擬類型”中的“旋轉(zhuǎn)”，設(shè)計者還必須注意伺服電機的兩個運動方向，在“配置”選項卡中，需要定義伺服電機1 “規(guī)范”選項中的“速度”和“等級”中的“常數(shù)”，“A”值為360乘以蝸桿的線程數(shù)和蝸輪的齒數(shù)。將伺服電機2的“A”值設(shè)置為360，以確保他們的運動能滿足蝸輪蝸桿的傳動比。 用戶單機“運行分析”按鈕，新建“分析定義1”。在對話框的“喜好”選項卡中，設(shè)置“開始時間”，“結(jié)束時間”，“幀計數(shù)”和“幀速率”，預(yù)設(shè)“結(jié)束時間”是蝸輪齒數(shù)，其余為默認值。 7.2運動模擬分析 軟件中還有一些在機構(gòu)模塊中可以測量的選項，例如“位移”，“速度”，“加速度”，“連接反應(yīng)”，“網(wǎng)絡(luò)負載”等。 分析蝸輪和蝸桿之間的相對運動，設(shè)計者必須選擇他們相應(yīng)的裝配坐標系統(tǒng)；確保坐標系統(tǒng)不隨蝸桿傳動運轉(zhuǎn)。 單擊“測量結(jié)果的原因分析”按鈕，新建措施1到措施4，選擇“圖形測量分析”，單擊“圖形測量結(jié)果”對話框，測量值可以通過圖形和數(shù)據(jù)輸出。它是比較直觀和準確的，如圖7和圖8。 在機構(gòu)模塊中，單擊“重播以前運行分析”按鈕，選擇對話框中的“干擾”選項卡，在動態(tài)干擾條件下檢測每個組件；點擊“播放當(dāng)前結(jié)果集” - “捕獲...”，電腦就可以可以播放MPEG格式的動畫（也可以導(dǎo)成mpg電影格式）。 從以上輸出的所有運動模擬圖可以看出以下三點： （1）蝸輪，蝸桿的Y坐標位移值可以利用改變正弦或余弦的方式來變化，Y坐標的速度值也是如此。當(dāng)他們運行時，他們具有相同的圓周運動規(guī)律。 （2）蝸輪Y坐標的位移值范圍為-132.5至132.5毫米。蝸桿Y坐標的位移值范圍是從-45至45毫米。蝸輪Y坐標的速度值范圍是從-47.1238至47.1238毫米/秒，蝸桿Y坐標的速度值范圍是從-282.743到282.743毫米/秒，這與他們的理論值完全一致。 （3）蝸輪的Y坐標有3個正弦波，而蝸桿的Y坐標有53個正弦波。這與蝸輪蝸桿實際的傳動比相同。 可以看出，所有來自上述的模擬結(jié)果和他們的理論計算值是相同的，也與實際相符。 參考資料 [1]陳閩杰，賴貞華，李志明。“阿基米德蝸桿在UG環(huán)境中的精確建?！?，湖北職業(yè)技術(shù)學(xué)院學(xué)報，2006,21（3）：152?156。

gear s really jugged 1 It is very difficult to draw out its complicated and accurate tooth in addition to its match worm is classified for left handed right handed single thread and multi start Those have increased difficulty to build its model This paper starts mainly from the processing principle of Archimedes column worm ZA worm simulate its produce procedure and make use of relations function in Pro E realize the accurate and parametric model of ZA worm Furthermore on the basis the worm gear was produced virtually and the generated worm gear and worm were assembled virtually and their motions were and analysed 2 The train of thought to build model To imitate ZA worm turning process draw cross section with the size and shape of parameterization worm gear hob s cross section take Archimedes spiral as trajectory make use of the Variable Section Sweep Cut function in Pro E cut off one slot on the worm blank then pattern the slot the multi start worm gear hob is generated It is the model difficult points to full parameterize its hands and number of threads The key point is firstly to set up the parameters of hands right handed value is 1 the left handed value is 1 and number of threads to establish the Archimedes spiral by the way of equation which can change with hands and number of threads Secondly while pattern worm slot it is necessary that designer select the pattern way of Direction and select the worm blank s axis as a reference to establish the first direction enter the number of threads as number of members in the first direction and enter screw pitch as the spacing pattern members in the first direction After finished worm gear hob parameterized model on the basis the worm model can generate by change parameter The difference between worm and worm gear hob is that the worm gear hob has blade slot and its radius is a clearance bigger than that of worm gear The way which get worm gear model is to adopt the worm gear hob virtual processing The basic train of thought is in the virtual environment to establish separately the worm gear blank and the worm hob then place respectively them in each coordinate system which accord to the theory geometry assembles relation make them rotate in each regulation and do the Boole subtraction operation between them at different engagement position in the motion process until the worm gear has been produced entire envelope surfaces 2 3 Build the relevance parameter From all above the train of thought it can be known that ZA worm gearing s parameterization design and motion analyse need to build those

threads number of turns as shown in table 1 4 To build the precise and parameterization model for ZA worm gear hob According to all above train of thought firstly designer need to cut off one slot on worm gear hob blank as shown in Fig 1 a then take worm gear hob blank axis as direction pattern the slot which has generated just a moment ago and add array relation taking the number of threads as

right handed 5 Establish the datum of virtual processing and assembly 5 1 Establish the datum in assembly file In Pro E those files are entire relevance between component and assembly In order to realize the relative motion between worm gear hob and worm gear in the assembly designer must establish separately the corresponding datum point and datum axis in component and assembly files and parameterize these data as shown in Fig 3 Every component can be assembled with the help of these data If parameters are changed the worm gear hob and worm gear will rotate relatively according to given transmission ratio Figure 3 The needed datum in virtual assembly The included angle is generally 90 degrees between two shafts of worm gearing s component in space In assembly designer must establish separately the two necessary datum axes which crisscrossed mutually and datum points for place the worm gear hob and worm gear to assembly and parameterize these data In assembly besides necessary parameters which have be stated before such as modulus tooth number the revolution angle parameter is also necessary to drive worm gear hob and worm gear revolution The parameter is set up as jiao initial value is 0 Finally it is necessary to input relations as follows d3 m q 2 cos jiao x coordinate of alignment point for worm gear hob d4 m q 2 sin jiao y coordinate of alignment point for worm gear hob d5 m pi z1 n 2 z coordinate of alignment point for worm gear hob d2 m pi z1 n 2 z coordinate of alignment central point APNT0 for worm motion simulation both x coordinate and y

the worm gear simulation coordinate system d10 m z2 2 sin jiao z1 z2 the worm gear alignment datum point s y coordinate in the worm gear simulation coordinate system 5 2 Establish the needed datum in each part file for virtual processing and assembly To build a datum point on reference circle of the worm gear hob align the hob axis with the hob datum axis which has been set up in assembly file while place it to assembly align the datum point on the hob reference circle with corresponding datum point which has been set up in assembly file because the datum point has been parameterized in assembly file so the designer can realize to revolve the hob round their each alignment axis Then it is necessary to make use of the relations function and input relations for the datum point as follows d69 m q 2 x coordinate of alignment datum point for worm gear hob d71 m pi z1 n 2 z coordinate of alignment datum point for worm gear hob Using same method the worm gear blank is built To be convenient to the after assembly while the designer build model he must pay attention to the worm gear blank s axis direction and the distance with coordinate system according to assembly relation and build the necessary date to assemble and simulate input relations as follows D74 m q x2 2 2 z coordinate of alignment datum point for worm gear blank 6 Virtual processing and assembly While place the components to assemble designer need to align separately the worm axis worm gear blank axis the datum point on the worm s reference circle and the datum point on the worm gear blank s reference circle with their corresponding axis or datum point which have been set up in assembly file Because the datum points have been parameterized in assembly file the designer can realize to revolve the worm and the worm gear blank round their each alignment axis by change the parameter Making use of the Tools Parameters function changing the value of parameter jiao the interval angle is smaller the effect of worm gear is cut is better the model can be regenerated Making use of the Edit Component Operations Cut Out function and cut the blank then in worm gear part files designer edit the definition of the cut out id which has got just a moment ago and change its attribute from subordinate to independent ensure that the cut couldn t change follow the after change of the parameter value To repeat all above step until all worm gear slots are entirely and homogeneously cut off by the worm gear hob as Fig 4 shows To change the parameters of the worm and the worm gear blank the different worm gear can
