Rotary actuator
A rotary actuator for a shift-by-wire system of a vehicle includes a motor with a motor shaft, an output shaft disposed in parallel with the motor shaft, a speed-reducing mechanism configured to reduce a rotational speed of the motor and transmit the rotation of the motor to the output shaft, and a case housing the motor and the speed-reducing mechanism. The speed-reducing mechanism includes a first speed-reducing portion including a ring gear and a sun gear, and a second speed reducing portion including a drive gear and a driven gear. The drive gear and the driven gear are coaxially disposed with the motor shaft and the output shaft, respectively, to serve as parallel shafts type gears. The drive gear is disposed between the motor and the first speed-reducing portion in an axial direction of the motor.

PRECESSIONAL GEAR TRANSMISSION
The p recessional gear transmission comprises a body, a satellite wheel with two bevel gear rings driven by a crankshaft in sphero-spatial motion around a fixed point, two central bevel wheels, one immobile fixed in the body and the other mobile mounted on a driven shaft. The teeth of the gear rings have a circular arc flank profile, those of the central bevel wheels are variable curvilinear. The configuration of the parameters of angles, the number of teeth, the ratio of the numbers of teeth of the mating wheels in the gears and the radius of the circular arc of the teeth profile of the gear rings determines the geometry and the kinematics of the contact of the teeth, the degree of frontal overlap, expressed by the number of simultaneously engaged pairs of teeth and defines the pressure angle between the mating flanks.
STEER-BY-WIRE STEERING APPARATUS
The present embodiments may provide a steer-by-wire steering apparatus which enables a driver to use a function for controlling an automobile, such as automatic parking, lane keeping, driving assistance according to a road surface condition, steering-vibration damping, or autonomous driving control, to improve the driver's convenience, and allows removal of hydraulic pressure-related components to prevent consumption of engine power by the components and thus can satisfy the high power and rigidity required for a steering device of a commercial vehicle.
CYCLOIDAL SPEED REDUCER
The present disclosure relates to a cycloidal reducer. The cycloidal reducer according to the present disclosure includes a reduction unit configured to reduce a torque input and an output unit configured to transfer the reduced output to the outside. A cycloidal rotor that is one constituent element of the reduction unit has a tooth-type protrusion formed in the shape of a circular arc. Thus, the level of difficulty of process is decreased more than when the tooth-type protrusion in the related art is formed in the shape of a broken line. Accordingly, the advantage of increasing the productivity is provided. In addition, rotor pins are accommodated in through-holes, respectively, that are equally spaced in the cycloidal rotor. A busing is formed that fills a gap between the through-hole and the rotor pin is formed in order for the rotor pin to stably transfer rotational power. Accordingly, the advantage of effectively distributing a load and stably transferring a reduction torque to the outside is provided.
