Large inertia load has been widely used in space driving mechanisms, but the research concerning theory is still an unexplored scientific field. Towards the problem of nonlinear disturbance in space driving mechanism with large inertia load, a 14-DOF (Degree of Freedom) nonlinear, time-varying, dynamic model of two-stage spur gear system was established, taking into consideration time-varying stiffness, backlash and transmission error. The dynamic response of the load, under large or small inertia was investigated, basing on the dynamic model. The results indicate that at starting, normal operation and braking, large inertia load system has obvious hysteresis, compared to small inertia. The factors that improve dynamic response speed under large inertia load were studied. The results indicate that improving the stiffness and damping of the output shaft and changing the material of second gear pair to titanium alloy are helpful in improving the dynamic response speed of the system. Some results enrich the research of two-stage spur gear nonlinear model and large inertia load, since they provide important reference for the actual design of the gear system.
