Publication number: 20230055299Abstract: A method for chamfering toothed gears which enables lengthening of a life of a tool is provided. The chamfering method is for sequentially chamfering the line intersection portions 23 between tooth flanks 21 and end faces 22 of teeth 2 with end cutting edges 122. A pitch Pb of the end cutting edges 122 is set to five times a pitch Fa of the teeth 2. As a result, at a chamfering step of chamfering line intersection portions 23 of the teeth 2, a circumferential speed of the end cutting edges 122 can be made faster than a circumferential speed of the teeth 2. Consequently, a difference in circumferential speed between the end cutting edges 122 and the teeth 2 can be utilized in chamfering and thus a cutting resistance can be reduced during the chamfering. Therefore, a life of the tool 100 can be lengthened.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 3, 2020Publication date: February 23, 2023Applicant: OSG CORPORATIONInventor: Koji Tsutsuyama
