Cycloidal gearbox

Cycloidal gearboxes
Cycloidal gearboxes or reducers contain four simple components: a high-speed input shaft, a single or compound cycloidal cam, cam followers or rollers, and a slow-speed output shaft. The input shaft attaches to an eccentric drive member that induces eccentric rotation of the cycloidal cam. In substance reducers, the first tabs on the cycloidal cam lobes engages cam followers in the housing. Cylindrical cam followers become teeth on the internal gear, and the Cycloidal gearbox number of cam fans exceeds the number of cam lobes. The next track of substance cam lobes engages with cam supporters on the result shaft and transforms the cam’s eccentric rotation into concentric rotation of the result shaft, thus raising torque and reducing acceleration.

Compound cycloidal gearboxes provide ratios ranging from as low as 10:1 to 300:1 without stacking levels, as in regular planetary gearboxes. The gearbox’s compound reduction and will be calculated using:

where nhsg = the amount of followers or rollers in the fixed housing and nops = the number for followers or rollers in the slow speed output shaft (flange).

There are many commercial variations of cycloidal reducers. And unlike planetary gearboxes where variations derive from gear geometry, heat treatment, and finishing processes, cycloidal variations share fundamental design concepts but generate cycloidal movement in different ways.
Planetary gearboxes
Planetary gearboxes are made of three simple force-transmitting elements: a sun gear, three or more satellite or planet gears, and an internal ring gear. In an average gearbox, the sun equipment attaches to the insight shaft, which is linked to the servomotor. Sunlight gear transmits engine rotation to the satellites which, in turn, rotate within the stationary ring equipment. The ring gear is section of the gearbox casing. Satellite gears rotate on rigid shafts linked to the earth carrier and cause the earth carrier to rotate and, thus, turn the output shaft. The gearbox gives the output shaft higher torque and lower rpm.
