ABSTRACT:
A gear and method for producing the gear. The gear has a gear tooth profile conjugate to a gear basic-cutter tooth-profile having an addendum with a convex portion having an addendum point proximal to a pitch line and a dedendum with a concave portion having a dedendum point proximal to the pitch line. The convex portion is complementary with a corresponding portion of a mating-gear basic-cutter tooth-profile dedendum. The concave portion is complementary with a corresponding portion of the mating-gear basic-cutter tooth-profile addendum. A transition zone between the addendum point and the dedendum point has a predetermined width. The gear basic-cutter tooth-profile has a predetermined half pitch relief at the pitch line and continuity of profile and continuity of slope at the addendum point.
