MUMBAI, India, Oct. 11 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202517091496 A) filed by Flender Gmbh, Bocholt, Germany, on Sept. 24, for 'tooth for a toothed torque transmission assembly, and method for manufacturing such a tooth.'

Inventor(s) include Dunck-Kerst, Klaus; Vriesen, Johannes; and Jacob, Thomas.

The application for the patent was published on Oct. 10, under issue no. 41/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The invention relates to a tooth (10) for a toothed torque transmission assembly, said tooth comprising a tooth flank (18) for exchanging torque with a mating flank of a toothing partner, wherein the tooth flank (18) has a periodic progressing tooth flank correction (22) with a sinusoidal waviness having a locally extending period length T, wherein the periodic tooth flank correction (22) is superimposed with a spatial microstructure (26), wherein a localised local maximum (28) is at the shortest distance t from the nearest local minimum (30), where t T/2. By increasing the white noise in the structure-borne sound emitted by the tooth (10) with the aid of the microstructures (26), it is possible to reduce human-disturbing noise emissions in torque transmission devices."

The patent application was internationally filed on Feb. 23, 2024, under International application No.PCT/EP2024/054665.
