Animation of a cycloidal drive. A cycloidal drive or cycloidal speed reducer is a mechanism for reducing the speed of an input shaft by a certain ratio. Cycloidal speed reducers are capable of relatively high ratios in compact sizes with very low backlash. [1] The input shaft drives an eccentric bearing that in turn drives the cycloidal disc in ...
Nabtesco (ナブテスコ株式会社, Nabutesuko Kabushiki-gaisha) is a Japanese engineering company that specializes in gearboxes, rotors, motors and robotics. History [ edit ]
Harmonic Drive SE strain wave gear set consisting of wave generator bearing (top left), flexspline cup (top right) and circular spline ring (bottom). Strain wave gearing (also known as harmonic gearing ) is a type of mechanical gear system that uses a flexible spline with external teeth, which is deformed by a rotating elliptical plug to engage ...
A cyclorotor, cycloidal rotor, cycloidal propeller or cyclogiro, is a fluid propulsion device that converts shaft power into the acceleration of a fluid using a rotating axis perpendicular to the direction of fluid motion. It uses several blades with a spanwise axis parallel to the axis of rotation and perpendicular to the direction of fluid ...
The opening weeks of the NBA season have been besieged by absent stars. This past week’s games turned out to be particularly destructive. First, on Thursday, news broke that Philadelphia 76ers ...
The Israeli military has enlisted the first batch of about 50 recruits into its new ultra-Orthodox brigade after a controversial decision to end their decades-long exemption from service.
Through work I recently attended a tour of a Sumitomo assembly facility in Surrey, BC, Canada, and recalled seeing the discussion on this page. I asked the Sumitomo rep if cycloidal drives are back-drivable. He conferred with the shop supervisor, and they agreed that their cycloidal drives are back-drivable if the reduction ratio is less than 60.
The ultimate test was wearing it on an hour-long boat ride to the beach while I stood on the upper deck the entire time, the wind hitting me like a thousand icicles. I layered a sweater underneath ...
