An outer-ring lubrication groove pattern formed in an outer-race raceway surface and an inner-race lubrication groove pattern formed in an inner-race raceway surface of a wave generator bearing of a strain wave gearing device are patterns in which linear lubrication grooves having very small widths and depths of several micrometers or less are arranged at fine pitches of several micrometers or less. The inner-race lubrication groove pattern includes a second groove pattern formed in long-axis-side inner-race raceway surface portions to hold the lubricant, and a first groove pattern formed in short-axis-side inner-race raceway surface portions to hold the lubricant and guide the lubricant to the second groove pattern. This configuration improves the contact state between balls and the inner-race and outer-race raceway surfaces of the wave generator bearing, thus reducing the coefficient of friction therebetween.

A speed reducer comprises a transmission shaft, an eccentric wheel, a first wheel assembly, a rotating wheel and a second wheel assembly. The first wheel assembly comprises a first wheel disc and at least one first roller. The at least one first roller is disposed on the inner wall of first wheel disc. The rotating wheel comprises a main body comprising an outer ring structure and a concave structure. The outer ring structure comprises at least one first tooth. The at least one first tooth is in contact with the corresponding first roller. At least one second roller is disposed within the concave structure. The second wheel assembly comprises a second wheel disc and at least one second tooth. The at least one second tooth is disposed on an outer periphery of the second wheel assembly. The at least one second tooth is in contact with the corresponding second roller.

A drive unit (10) for a manually driven vehicle, in particular a bicycle or an EPAC, includes a housing (12), an electric motor (18) with a rotor (44), a bottom bracket shaft (14), a harmonic drive (20) coupled to the rotor (44), and an output shaft (22). The harmonic drive (20) includes an outer bushing with an inner toothing. The outer bushing (38) of the harmonic drive (20) is coupled to the housing (12) via a buffer (64).

A gear device includes an external gear, and an internal gear that meshes with the external gear. The external gear is formed of metal. The internal gear is formed of a carbon fiber reinforced resin.

A strain wave gearing includes a flex gear including an adjacent member adjacent to an outer gear in a direction along an axis, an outputter including an opposing portion facing the adjacent member in a radial direction centered on the axis, and a transmitter extending along the radial direction. The transmitter is fixed to one of the opposing portion and the adjacent member, and an insertion portion into which the transmitter is inserted is provided in the other of the opposing portion and the adjacent member. The insertion portion allows relative displacement in the circumferential direction of the flex gear and the outputter. A plurality of transmission pairs is arranged in the circumferential direction, the transmission pairs being pairs of the transmitter and the insertion portion.

A gearing, in particular a coaxial gearing or a linear gearing, comprising a tooth system, a tooth carrier having guides, teeth received within the guides for engagement with the tooth system, wherein the teeth are mounted within the guides to be displaceable in the direction of their longitudinal axis relative to the tooth carrier, a cam disk for driving the teeth along the respective longitudinal axis of the teeth, wherein at least one of the teeth respectively has a tooth flank area having tooth flanks, and a tooth body, wherein, between the tooth body and the tooth flanks, one shoulder respectively is provided, which projects back from the tooth body to the inside towards the tooth flank.

An internal contact part of a wave generator of a strain wave gearing, a contact part between an externally toothed gear and the wave generator, and tooth surface parts are lubricated by a lubricating fine powder. When the strain wave gearing is in operation, the lubricating fine powder is supplied to the internal contact part and the contact part by a first powder guide that rotates integrally with the wave generator. Having passed through these sections, the lubricating fine powder is supplied to the tooth surface parts by a second powder guide that rotates integrally with the wave generator. Each component part can be reliably lubricated regardless of the orientation of the strain wave gearing during operation.

An actuator for aviation applications, in particular for adjusting rotor blades in a helicopter, may include an electromechanical drive assembly connected to an output drive via a downstream transmission, where the drive assembly is divided into sub-drives that can be operated independently, and where at least two sub-drives are spatially separated from one another in that the transmission is placed between these sub-drives. The transmission may include at least two harmonic gearings coupled to one another by at least one first coupling element, where a first harmonic gearing is located inside a non-rotating first housing, where a second harmonic gearing is located inside a rotating second housing, and where the second housing is connected to the output drive.

A motor-incorporating reducer includes a main body, a rotational actuating member, a flex spline, and an circular spline. The rotational actuating member has a rotating shaft, a wave generator, and a motor. The rotating shaft passes through the main body, and the elliptic wheel is integratedly formed around the rotating shaft. The motor has a magnetic motor rotator that is integratedly formed on the rotating shaft. With the integrated structure, the rotating shaft, the elliptic wheel, and the motor rotator can stably perform rotation, thereby eliminating the risk that the three, when formed separated and assembled, would become non-coaxial due to the resultant tolerance after assembly and have eccentric rotation, and in turn preventing adverse effects on the drive's output torque due to non-coaxial rotation and extending the drive's service life.

Coaxial gear mechanism (1), having a toothing (5) oriented axially with respect to an axis of rotation (3) of the coaxial gear mechanism (1), a tooth carrier (7) with axially oriented guides (9), tooth pins (11) which each have a body (41), which is mounted in an axially displaceable manner in a guide (9) of the tooth carrier (7), and a head region (51), wherein the head region (51) has at least one tooth (53) for engagement with the toothing (5), and wherein the head region (51) is configured to be wider than the body (41).
