Study on load sharing behavior of planetary gear train based on deformation compatibility

The deformation compatibility equations and the torque balance equations were found of the 2K-H-type planetary transmission system based on the characteristic that the system composed a closed-loop of power flow.In consideration of the manufacturing error,assembly error and float of the parts,the load sharing coefficient of each planetary gear was calculated by using the theory of equivalent mesh error and equivalent mesh stiffness.The effects of the errors on load sharing were studied.The study provides useful theoretical guideline for the design of planetary gear systems.
