In this paper, a practical method for design and machining of cycloid gear was investigated. Based on the proposed method, a systematic program was developed for automatically designing the tooth profiles of epicycloid and hypocycloid gears for the case fo one difference between the number of teeth of cycloid gear and the number coordinates of tooth profiles and pressure angles. The error analysis between cycloid curve and Biarc curve was performed to show the effective method of equidistant partitioning of cycloid curve so that efficient method of Biarc curve fitting was also proposed for the partitioned curve.

The free curve gear is a non-circular gear without any relating center, which can perform free curve motion for complicated mechanisms, and minimize the work area. In this study, an algorithms for tooth profile generation of free curve involute gear is developed. The algorithm uses the involute gear creating principle in which a gear can be generated by rolling with another standard involute one. Cycloid me and third polynomial curve gears were designed and verified by computer graphics. These gears are manufactured in the wire-cut EDM and examined in engagement with a standard spur gear. The results showed that the proposed algorithm is successful to design and to manufacture the free curve gear with concave and convex profiles.

The most of reducers consist of many gear parts, but a ball reducer never contains a gear. As the ball reducer with gearless has no back lash, it is necessary more and more to precision machine. The reducing of ball reducer happens by cycloid curves and all instant relative velocity centers always pass on a given constant position when rotational running. Then, it is difficult to calculate cycloid curve for design and machining. So, this paper studied a software for the design of the ball reducer design and machined all parts included among cycloid curve. By using the developed software, this study has large benefit to design every ball reducer.

The effects of lobe shapes on the leak flow conductance of Roots-type vacuum pump are studied numerically and experimentally. The modelled lobe shape of Roots-type vacuum pump is two-lobe spur gear. The numerical analyses are performed on leak flows in Roots-type vacuum pump. It is numerically calculated using a 4th-order Runge-Kutta method and is compared with experimental results. Results show that for the case of involute lobe shape the total amount of the leak flow conductance is greater than that of cycloid and Cassini oval lobe shapes.

The cycloidal reducer is one of the velocity controlling equipments in machinery. It has advantages of the higher reduction ratio, the higher accuracy, the easier adjustment of the transmission ratio and the smaller workspace than any other kinds of the reducers. This paper proposes a simple and exact approach for the lobe profile design of the two teeth difference cycloidal plate gear, which is different from the standard cycloidal reducer, by means of the principle of the instant velocity center in the general contact mechanism and the homogeneous coordinate transformation.
