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.

An automatic animal paw washing machine includes a container having a flexible cover and opening at an open end thereof and a plurality of brushes secured therewithin. The brushes are in mechanical communication with a mechanism capable of being activated by a switch. The plurality of brushes is motioned in a rotating fashion when activated. The flexible cover is capable of being removed from the washing machine.

Systems and methods of monitoring lubrication of a gear assembly during operation of a machine provide for receiving at a control system, a signal from a sensor indicative of a value obtained by the sensor for an electrical property of a circuit crossing the gear assembly operably coupled to the machine, ascertaining whether the value for the electrical property corresponds to a warning level for a condition of the lubricant film, and outputting a control command when the value for the electrical property corresponds to the warning level for the condition of the lubricant film.

A ride-on vehicle, such as for a child, includes a vehicle body and one or more wheels that support the vehicle body relative to a surface. At least one of the wheels includes a hub motor arrangement that provides a drive torque for propelling the vehicle. The hub motor arrangement includes a housing defining an interior space. An axle or other mounting element(s) define an axis of rotation of the housing. Preferably, the axle or other mounting element(s) do not pass completely through the housing. A motor drives the housing through a transmission. Preferably, the motor is a standard, compact motor that is positioned on the axis of rotation and can be laterally offset from a central plane of the housing. In some embodiments, a traction element is carried directly by the housing.
