METHOD OF CUTTING BEVEL GEARS AND FACE CUTTING HEAD USED TO THIS END Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC B23F9/14 B23F21/12 

FIELD: process engineering.

SUBSTANCE: method relates to cutting bevel gears whereat tooth lengthwise line is set by hypocycloid. It comprises equipping, in first configuration, universal face cutting head with first number of cutters corresponding to first number of passes. It comprises making first bevel gear by continuous-division method using universal face cutting head in first configuration and equipping, in second configuration, universal face cutting head with second number of cutters corresponding to second number of passes. It comprises making second bevel gear by continuous-division method using universal face cutting head in first configuration and equipping, in second configuration. Face cutting head has front seat for maximum number of rod-type cutters arranged along first homocentric rated circumference of cutting head having first rated radius. Note here that the number of said seta is divided, at least, one time by integer that is larger than two or equal to two to cut first bevel gear using rod-type cutters by continuous-division method. Note also that universal cutting head in first configuration has maximum number of sets of cutters. Note also that universal cutting head in second configuration has second number of sets of cutters. Note that second number of passes is obtained by dividing first number by integer.

EFFECT: decreased consumption of tools.
