Transmission for C-shaped gear
Published on October 2, 2017
Input: pink bevel gear.
Output: blue C-shaped gear.
The gear arrangement must ensure that the blue is always in mesh with at least one among the two brown gears.
This transmission is used when the approach for centering in axial direction is impossible. Examples:
– Orbital welding heads
– Motorized open end wrenches
– Wrapping machine for torus-shaped products:
It is possible to use only three spur gears, the green spur gear is in mesh directly with two brown gears.
