  • System for evaluating correctness of gear mesh and automatically updating results on a production system
    Patent number: 11158038
    Abstract: A method for automated gear contact pattern verification includes applying a colored powder to at least one gear to be meshed to form contacts on at least one gear tooth of the at least one gear, and using the smartphone, capturing images of the at least one gear tooth. A matching algorithm run on the smartphone may include identifying bounding points of a yellow portion of the at least one gear tooth, the bounding points including a midpoint of the yellow portion; identifying a gear mesh area between the bounding points and a midpoint of the gear mesh area; and determining a deviation in the midpoints of the yellow portion and gear mesh area, wherein the deviation may between approximately 25% and 80%. The test results are displayed on the smartphone, the test results including at least an indication of pass or fail.
