WAVE GEAR TRANSMISSION Russian patent published in 1999 - IPC

FIELD: aviation and rocket engineering. SUBSTANCE: wave gear transmission has coaxial input and output shafts, rigid and flexible wheels, wave generator and auxiliary gear transmission consisting of n satellite. Output shaft is made stepped. Larger-diameter step of shaft is positioned from opposite side of rigid wheel relative to auxiliary gear transmission. This step of shaft includes cavity for arrangement of input shaft and recess for satellites. Input shaft is manufactured as torque-limiting clutch. Wave generator is positioned in bearings on external surface of smaller-diameter step of output shaft between auxiliary gear transmission and rigid wheel hub and is coupled to input shaft through auxiliary gear transmission. Axles of satellites are installed in output shaft wall separating the steps of larger and smaller diameters. One of input shaft bearings is positioned in the same. EFFECT: protection against overload. 2 dwg
