Gruger equation
The Grübler's equations were set up in 1917 and 1918 almost simultaneously and independently of each other by both Martin Fürchtegott Grübler (1851-1935) and Maurice d'Ocagne . They are used in technology to determine the mobility of gears and their degree of running . The mobility of the joints connecting the transmission parts is considered in relation to the number of links. A distinction must be made as to whether these movements take place in the plane (plane gear) , on a curved ( spherical ) surface (spherical gear) or arbitrarily in space (spatial gear) .
the equation
The general form of Grübler's equation is:
it stands
- Q: Degree of running
- T: type of gear (T = 6 for three-dimensional, T = 3 for spherical or plane gear)
- n: number of transmission links (including the frame)
- g: number of joints
- b i : mobility of a single joint i (b i = 1, 2, ...).
Spatial transmission
T = 6
Flat and spherical gear
T = 3
It stands
- c: number of joints with mobility b i = 1
- d: Number of joints with mobility b i = 2 (e.g. rolling and sliding at the contact points of spur gear flanks or combined thrust-pivot bearing).
Result
The degree of running F of the gear must be ≥1 so that the gear can move:
- if F = 1, the gear is called inevitable . This corresponds to the usual use in which one link is moved (driven) and the other links inevitably follow it.
- with F = 2, the gearbox requires two drives that act on two different links in order to move it in a defined manner.
The inevitability of a gear (F = 1) is checked with the so-called Grübler's forced running condition - a corresponding change in the Grübler's equation. For planar gears, which only have joints with b i = 1 (d = 0 and c = g), the condition is:
