Abstract:

The finite element analysis of triple reduction gearbox that constitutes the driving mechanism of a double bascule movable bridge was performed. The triple reduction helical gearbox was made of ASTM A36 Steel. The triple reduction helical gearbox was a three stage gearbox transmitting 112.5 H.P. at 174 rpm with a reduction ratio of 71.05:1. The load calculation for helical gear was performed using the CAD Software package. The reactions were used to apply loads to the finite element model of housing (casing). Geometric model of triple reduction gearbox casing was built using NX-8 and meshed using the ANSYS finite element program. Static structural analysis was performed using a combination of shell and solid elements to determine the deflection and to estimate the stress distribution in the housing. The aim is to improve the strength by reducing the stress and deformation what changes can do in Design that all will discussed about the detail analysis of ANSYS software result for three different cases for gearbox casing .case (1) casing without stiffeners and rings. Case (2) casing with stiffeners. Case (3) casing with stiffeners and rings.
