Kinematics Analysis of Gear Transmission System of Artillery Elevating Mechanism

Abstract

A virtual prototype model of the artillery gear transmission system is established, and the speed step function is applied on the motor gear for kinematic analysis. Instantaneous speed of each gear and its transmission shaft is obtained, which is verified by comparison with the theoretical value. The results show that the virtual prototype model can accurately reflect the transmission ratio of each gear pair of the elevating mechanism, which can provide technical support for the subsequent research on the idling characteristics of the gear transmission of the elevating mechanism.
