Abstract

The paper presents a new educational methodology to study of spur (cylindrical) involute gears with the help of laboratory equipment and its three dimensional (3D) computer models. During the laboratory practice at the «Theory of Mechanisms and Machines» (TMM) Department at Bauman Moscow State Technical University (Russia) the students learn the basic theory and sketch (by tracing) the involute tooth profile of a spur gear that is formed by using a generating method and a shaper cutter as a cutting tool. Sketching is carried out with use of standard laboratory equipment, including TMM-47 device and its 3D-model, as well as others. Devices and models imitate an involute gearing and give an evident idea of the metal-removal process and formation of involute tooth profile. The proposed methodology is related to the information-and-developing technologies and aimed at the best comprehensibility of discipline, popularization and dissemination of scientific knowledge with an increasing effect in case of open access to 3D-documents hosted on Internet network.
