Designing a 3-stage synchromesh gearbox involves several key analyses: geometry


analysis, force analysis, and stress analysis. Here is a list of important formulas and
principles used in each of these analyses:

1. Geometry Analysis

Geometry analysis ensures that the gears mesh correctly and achieve the desired speed
ratios.

Gear Ratio

Gear Ratio=Ndriver​Ndriven​​=Tdriver​Tdriven​​Where N is the number of teeth and T is the


torque.

Pitch Circle Diameter

d=Pd​N Where d is the pitch circle diameter, N is the number of teeth, and Pd​is the diametral
pitch.

Module

m=Nd​Where m is the module, d is the pitch circle diameter, and N is the number of teeth.

1/3
Base Circle Diameter

db​=dcos(ϕ) Where db​is the base circle diameter and ϕ is the pressure angle.

Addendum and Dedendum

Addendum=Pd​1​Dedendum=Pd​1.25​

2. Force Analysis
Force analysis determines the forces acting on the gears and the shafts.

Tangential Force

Ft​=d2T​Where Ft​is the tangential force, T is the torque, and d is the pitch circle diameter.

Radial Force

Fr​=Ft​tan(ϕ) Where Fr​is the radial force and ϕ is the pressure angle.

Axial Force (Helical Gears)

Fa​=Ft​tan(β) Where Fa​is the axial force and β is the helix angle.

3. Stress Analysis
Stress analysis ensures that the gears can withstand the operational loads without failure.

Bending Stress (Lewis Equation)

σb​=Fy​Ft​Pd​​Where σb​is the bending stress, Ft​is the tangential force, Pd​is the diametral
pitch, and Fy​is the form factor (depends on gear tooth geometry).

Contact Stress (Hertzian Contact Stress)

σc​=bdc​Ft​E​ ​Where σc​is the contact stress, Ft​is the tangential force, E is the
combined Young's modulus of the gears, b is the face width, and dc​is the contact diameter.

Safety Factor

Safety Factor=σactual​σallowable​​Where σallowable​is the allowable stress for the material


and σactual​is the calculated stress.

Additional Considerations

2/3
Helical Gears:

Account for the helix angle (β) in all force and stress calculations.
Adjust the module and diametral pitch accordingly.
Material Properties:

Consider Young's modulus, yield strength, and fatigue strength of the gear
materials.
Lubrication and Cooling:

Ensure adequate lubrication to minimize friction and heat generation.


Design cooling mechanisms if necessary to maintain operational temperatures.

These formulas and considerations provide a foundation for designing a 3-stage


synchromesh gearbox, covering essential aspects of geometry, forces, and stresses involved
in gear operation.
