Gear-shaped precision-working tools, in particular shaving gears, capable of providing an optimum machining result only during a portion of their entire lifetime, since during each regrinding (generating), the profile displacement factor, and thus the number of the tooth flanks which engage successively and simultaneously one after the other the workpiece gear to be machined, is changed. This is remedied with the invention in such a manner that the precision-working tool is reground (generated) while maintaining the original number of teeth (z) and the original normal module of the pitch angle (.beta.), the module in transverse section and the base circle diameter are changed in such a manner that little or no change occurs to an original profile displacement factor (x). When the tool, which is to be reground (to be generated) in this manner, has grooved tooth flanks (12, 13), for grooves (14) increases continuously from a first groove (14') mutually adjacent one end of a tooth flank (12, 13) up to a second groove (14') mutually adjacent an other end of the same tooth flank, the grooves (14') having the greatest depth and the grooves (14') having the least on mutually adjacent and opposing tooth flanks (12, 13) opposing one another.

To manufacture grinding members covered with extremely hard abrasive granules, instead of a base member of steel, a commercially available grinding tool of a corresponding shape and size made of a porous ceramic material is used as the base member. The base member is coated with an adhesive at the areas to be covered, the abrasive granules are applied and are pressed into the pores of the ceramic material; finally the adhesive is allowed to harden.

A method for the precision working of the tooth flanks of particularly hardened gears (workpiece W) with a gearlike tool, the tooth flanks of which tool have an abrasive surface and which rotates in mesh with the workpiece (W). In order to avoid damage to the tool caused by remaining burrs or the like in the tooth system of the workpiece (W), a twin tool with axially spaced similar tools is utilized, individual ones of the similar tools are used one after the other. The first tool removes thereby first the remaining burrs and the like and the second tool performs thereafter the actual precision working.

Tool for the precision working of tooth flanks of hardened gears

A scanner head for a tooth-flank scanning device for testing and measuring of gears and similar parts, in particular of gearlike tools having abrasive tooth flanks, is adapted to be introduced into a tooth space of the respective gear or similar part and which can be guided along one of the tooth flanks bordering the tooth space. The scanning piece or insert is formed by the convex surface of a spherical segment, the radius of which is substantially greater than the radius of a ball introducible into the tooth space.

A gearlike dressing tool coated with extremely hard abrasive grains like diamond or CBN. To reduce the manufacturing expenses, not all but only a portion of the teeth is coated. The remaining teeth remain uncoated. The coated teeth lie always directly side-by-side in a peripheral direction and have, including the coating, the same tooth thickness as the teeth which are not coated.

Gearlike dressing tool

Apparatus for the manufacture or working of the tooth system of straight or helically toothed, externally or internally toothed gears with a hyperboloidally or globoidally or similarly formed toothed tool, which has an abrasive surface or the like, wherein a crossed-axes angle is provided. The intermeshed workpiece-tool is guided by a pair of guide wheels. The working takes place on only one flank of a tooth. The workpiece or tool spindle is coupled with a reversible motor. A brake is provided on one of the spindles. A shiftable coupling and additional brakes or centrifugal masses can furthermore be provided.

Method for manufacturing and working of gears

A method and apparatus are provided for manufacturing or machining a gear workpiece with a hyperboloidally, globoidally or similarly formed gearlike tool which has an abrasive or similar surface. The axes of the workpiece and tool are skew lines. During changing of the center distance, in particular as the workpiece and tool are moved apart at the end of the machining operation, the crossed-axes angle is automatically adjusted to conform to the effective rolling circle.

Method and apparatus for manufacturing and machining gears

For the precision working of particularly hardened bevel gears, a method and an apparatus are disclosed in which the workpiece is moved during rolling contact with a bevel-gear-shaped tool having abrasive flanks. Workpiece and tool rotates in meshing relation with their axis spaced and crossed and each connected with a guide gear which also meshing engage and roll with one another. Both the workpiece-tool pair and also the guide-gear pair run each with backlash, however, on opposite flanks, so that the entire combination runs without backlash.

Apparatus for manufacturing and working of gears

A gearlike tool for dressing abrasive, gearlike, tools used for precision machining gear workpieces has tooth flanks which are coated with diamond grains. The gaps between teeth of the base member which has the diamond coating are enlarged, for example by removing teeth, in order to make the application of the coating easier. In order to assure a fully meshing engagement, the dressing tool can be combined with uncoated guide wheels which have teeth which meshingly engage the teeth of the precision machining tool.

Gearlike tool for dressing abrasive, gearlike, precision machining tools

A method for the manufacture or machining of the tooth system of straight or helically toothed, externally or internally toothed, nonhardened or hardened workpiece with a toothed tool, the tooth flanks of which are coated with a cubic boron nitride (CBN). The workpiece and the tool roll along with a single-flank contact and are supported by a guide-gear pair which also roll along with a single-flank contact. The contacting flanks of the workpiece-tool pair are the mating flanks for the contacting flanks of the guide-gear pair. To protect the CNB-coating, the tool is already driven at a speed which is necessary for an optimum chip removal before the tool tooth flanks start to work on the workpiece tooth flanks.

Apparatus for the manufacture or machining of gears with a toothed tool having abrasive working surfaces, in which workpiece and tool, during rotation, are supported by the tooth system of a guide-gear pair. The apparatus works with a single-flank contact between workpiece and tool, whereby for changing the tooth flanks which contact one another, one member of the drive chain can be rotated relative to the other members a preselectable or adjustable amount.

Apparatus for the manufacture or machining of gears by rolling on a tool

An apparatus for manufacturing or machining externally toothed gears using a hyperboloidally or similarly formed, internally or externally toothed tool with abrasive tooth flanks. The tool and workpiece roll on one another about respective axes which cross at a distance. The tool has a sufficient axial dimension so that it is in engagement with the workpiece teeth from one side surface to the other of the workpiece. The workpiece and tool are coupled with guide wheel pairs. Each guide wheel pair runs with potential for backlash, but the overall gearing is such that no such backlash can occur.
