14.2.2.2. GearSet

Body To DT can be created by converting 3D CAD to Drivetrain's External, Internal, Planetary, Double Pinion Planetary, Cross Helical, and Cycloid Pin GearSet.

Parameters
GearSet Type

The command to define the type of GearSet as follows.

CommandType
HEXTExternal GearSet - Helical Gears
SEXTExternal GearSet - Spur Gears
HINTInternal GearSet - Helical Gears
SINTInternal GearSet - Spur Gears
HSPLPlanetary GearSet - Helical Gears
SSPLPlanetary GearSet - Spur Gears

CHCross Helical GearSet
CYPINCycloid Pin GearSet
RNPRack and Pinion GearSet
GearSet NameThe name of the GearSet is defined by this parameter..
Gear Name

The name of the Gear is defined by this parameter..

If you use a planetary or double pinion planetary gearset, there is the special rule of gear name as follows.

CommandType
SUNSun Gear of Planetary GearSet
RNGRing Gear of Planetary GearSet
PLNT#Planet Gear of Planetary GearSet
CRRCarrier

Assembly Body

Name

The name of the body to which the gear is to be assembled
Example

- Example of defining a External GearSet to satisfy the following conditions.

1) GearSet Name : GearSet_01

2) Gear type : Spur gear

3) Driving Gear : The name of the gear is Gear1 and must be assembled on the shaft called Input

4) Driven Gear : The name of the gear is Gear2 and must be assembled on the shaft called Output

SEXT__GearSet_01__Gear1__Input

SEXT__GearSet_01__Gear2__Output

- Example of defining a Planetary GearSet to satisfy the following conditions.

1) GearSet Name : PlanetaryGearSet_FRT

2) Gear type : Helical gear

3) Number of planet gears : 3 EA

4) Sun gear must be assembled on the shaft called SunShaft

5) Planet gears must be assembled on the shaft called PlanetShaft_#

6) Ring gear must be assembled on the housing called Housing

  • Remarks

1. When a Double Pinion Planetary GearSet is created using Body To DT, the rule of planet gear naming is that the inner planet gears are first and outer planet gears are second.
