英文摘要：

The involutes spherical gear is a new mechanism which can adjust spatial pose, so there are wide applications for it in mechanism transmission field. Based on the principle of spherical gear grinding with shaping method, the motion degree of freedom for the grinding machine is analyzed. And then, the motion function scheme and a few types of structures of the grinding machine are designed. By analyzed and compared the scheme, the structural design of ＂horizontal double-axes workbench style of machine＂ is chosen, and it has some advantages, such as excellent mechanics, high stiffness of the lathe bed, little heat distortion, good resisting vibration and so on. Based on these, virtual prototype （VPT） model of this scheme design is set up and the simulation of machine principle is executed, and the result validates the layout scheme can satisfy the requirement of the grinding manufacture with spherical gear and provides the direction of manufacturing the special grinding machine of spherical gear.
