SBW DRIVING ACTUATOR
The present disclosure provides a shift by wire (SBW) driving actuator capable of improving control performance and durability through control of a brushless direct current (BLDC) motor by an inductive sensor, and improving gear transmission efficiency by introducing a multistage teeth-shaped transmission unit configured to connect a sun gear and an output shaft of a reducer to transmit a rotational force to reduce a load resulting from eccentric rotation of the sun gear.
TURBOFAN GAS TURBINE ENGINE WITH GEARBOX
A gas turbine engine includes an engine core, a fan and a gearbox interconnecting the engine core and the fan. The engine core is configured to drive rotation of at least one shaft. The power gearbox is configured to transfer torque from the at least one shaft to an output shaft at a reduced rate. The output shaft is coupled to the fan to drive the fan at the reduced rate and provide trust for the gas turbine engine.

Multi-crankshaft cycloidal pin wheel reducer
Disclosed is a multi-crankshaft cycloidal pin wheel reducer. The gland and the wheel base are fixedly connected by a connecting shaft through screws and are rotated by the main bearing, coaxially with the pin gear shell, with intermediate crankshaft and pin gear shell and roller pin constitutes a cycloidal pin wheel together with the first and second cycloidal to form a rotating pair connection respectively. The plurality of planetary bearings are provided on inner rings of the gland and the wheel base, with the planetary crankshafts being mounted between each pair of the planetary bearings. The planetary crankshafts are coupled with the first cycloidal wheel and the second cycloidal wheel, respectively through the eccentric bearing, to form a rotating pair connection, so as to form a multi-crankshaft force transmission structure. It has the advantages of smooth operation, low noise, high efficiency, and small angular transmission error.
TRANSMISSION DEVICE
Various implementations include transmission devices for reducing angular speed using a nutating intermediate plate that does not rotate about the central axis of the transmission relative to the transmission housing. Various implementations of the transmission devices are able to achieve high transmission ratios in a single, compact stage while maintaining high efficiency and leverage simple components that can be easily manufactured using standard machining practices.
Speed reducing device
One object is to provide a speed reducer provided with a buffer mechanism for reducing an external force and capable of reliably measuring a load torque during an operation. A speed reducing device includes a speed reducing mechanism for reducing a rotation speed of an output with respect to an input between an input rotary shaft and an output rotary shaft, a housing that houses the speed reducing mechanism, and a buffer unit formed of an elastic member and having a cushion force acting mainly in a substantially rotational tangential direction. An amount of displacement of the housing generated by the buffer unit is measured by a measurement device.
Cycloidal reducer with helical toothing for power steering
A cycloidal gear pair reducer including an input shaft, mounted in a reducer casing such that it rotates about an axis referred to as main axis, an eccentric member carried by the input shaft and rotated by the latter, at least one cycloidal disc rotatably mounted on the eccentric member and having a cycloidal toothing, at least one ring gear provided with a receiving toothing with which the cycloidal toothing of the cycloidal disc meshes, and an output shaft, separate from the input shaft, arranged to be rotated by the cycloidal disc; the cycloidal toothing of the disc and the corresponding receiving toothing of the ring gear being helical.
Dual function gearbox, gearbox system and method
A dual function gearbox generates two separate output rotational motions from a single input rotational motion. First and second rotatable housings comprise corresponding first and second internal gears, with the internal gears having different pitch diameters. A drive shaft is disposed within the housings, extending though openings within opposite sides of housings, with an eccentric rotor disposed around the drive shaft. The eccentric rotor is in operative contact with a differential gear ring comprising first and second external gear rings having different diameters, with the first and second external gear rings engaging corresponding first and second internal gears. When rotational energy is imparted to one end of the drive shaft, the gearing arrangement imparts a rotational motion to either the first or second rotatable housing, with the housing rotating around the other end of the rotating drive shaft, which can extend outside of the dual function gearbox. Thus, the dual function gearbox generates two output motions: high torque rotation of the rotatable housing; and rotation of the drive shaft which can be used as an input rotation to additional dual function gearboxes.
BRAKE ACTUATOR
A brake actuator includes: a housing; an electric motor with a hollow motor shaft rotating; a rotating shaft disposed inside the motor shaft to be coaxial therewith; a piston with a rear end disposed inside the motor shaft and a front end engaged with the friction member; a speed reduction mechanism decelerating rotation transmitted from the motor shaft and transmitting the rotation to the rotating shaft; and a motion conversion mechanism converting a rotating motion of the rotating shaft into an advancing/retracting motion of the piston. The motor shaft is rotatably supported by the housing at an outer peripheral surface thereof, and the rotating shaft is rotatably supported by an inner peripheral surface of the motor shaft via rollers at an outer peripheral surface thereof as well as by the housing via a thrust bearing at a rear end of the rotating shaft.
