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 ...
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 ...
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 ]
Meshing of two spur gears with involute external teeth. z 1 = 20, z 2 = 50, α = 20°, ξ 1 = ξ 2 = 0, ISO 53:1998. The lower (green) gear is the driving one. The working (active) part of the line of action is shown in blue, which is the locus of all teeth contact points.
A magnetohydrodynamic drive or MHD propulsor is a method for propelling seagoing vessels using only electric and magnetic fields with no moving parts, using magnetohydrodynamics. The working principle involves electrification of the propellant (gas or water) which can then be directed by a magnetic field, pushing the vehicle in the opposite ...
Hypoid spiral bevel gears. A hypoid is a type of spiral bevel gear whose axis does not intersect with the axis of the meshing gear. The shape of a hypoid gear is a revolved hyperboloid (that is, the pitch surface of the hypoid gear is a hyperbolic surface), whereas the shape of a spiral bevel gear is normally conical.
As Democratic governors prepare to navigate and resist parts of President-elect Donald Trump's next administration, one told ABC News she is most alarmed by Trump's tariff plan. "Tariffs would be ...
The Whitbread Engine of 1785. The sun and planet gear is a method of converting reciprocating motion to rotary motion and was used in the first rotative beam engines.. It was invented by the Scottish engineer William Murdoch, an employee of Boulton and Watt, but was patented by James Watt in October 1781.
