Abstract
The authors propose a concept of axes of meshing for a gear drive with crossed axes of rotation. The axes of meshing represent a couple of c rossed straight lines L-(I) and L-(II) that satisfy the following requ irements: (a) rotation about L-(I) and L-(II) provide the given relati ve screw motion; (b) the common normal to contacting surfaces intersec ts axes of meshing. Particular cases of axes of meshing are considered . Interpretation by Pluecker's linear complex of the necessary conditi on of existence of envelope to family of surfaces is discussed.
