Article Abstract

The tooth width and length of face gear limit control the strength of face gear, and heat treatments are often used to improve the hardness and strength of face gear. However, heat treatments will often cause additional deformations, which will affect the dimensional accuracy of the face gear. In this paper, to effectively control the deformation and ensure the accuracy of the face gear, the finite element method was used to establish the calculation model of the face gear die quenching method, and thus, the influence of die on the gear quenching deformation was analyzed. Next, the accuracy of the calculation model was verified by the pressure quenching experiment. The results demonstrated that the inconsistent phase transformation between the surface and the center of the face gear was the key factor affecting the deformation due to the influence of the carbon content. Compared with die-less quenching, the inner hole-die can effectively limit the radial shrinkage deformation of the face gear. With the increase of the upper-die pressure, the axial and radial deformations of the face gear gradually became stable. In the actual production, the load of dies should be reasonably selected based on the gear accuracy requirements.

Office of Occupational Safety and Health, U.S. Food and Drug Administration, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Washington, DC, United States.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Standard, outlined in 29 CFR 1910 Subpart I states that Protective gear - including personal protective clothing, respiratory equipment, and barriers or shields- must be supplied, properly used, and kept clean and functional whenever there are hazards present. These hazards may arise from processes, environmental conditions, chemicals, radiation, or mechanical sources that could potentially cause injury or harm bodily functions through skin contact, inhalation, or absorption. Employers must supply PPE to their employees as determined by hazard assessments of the workplace and duties performed by employees.

North temperate lakes are an important resource across North America and Eurasia, however, their ecosystems are declining and projected to continue to face further impacts under future land use and climate change. Understanding how lake ecosystems respond to environmental stressors and management actions is critical for identifying resilient lakes and developing adaptation strategies. However, the ability to manage lakes is hampered by a lack of historical information.
