A Study on Contact Force Analysis of Fixed Outer-Ring Type Epicycloid Plate Gear for Cycloidal Speed Reducer with Friction Effect

외륜 고정형 에피 사이클로이드 감속기의 작용력 해석법에 관한 연구

All teeth on the cycloidal plate gear exist in the contact motion with rollers and the forces are interacted between roller gears with cycloidal plate gears. So, the contact forces and friction forces must be required to improve the accuracy in design procedures of cycloidal speed reducers. This paper presents a force analysis considered the friction effect approach derived by static force equilibrium condition, geometrical adaptation, instant velocity center method and relative velocity method. Finally, the paper develops CAD-program for the construction of the design automation using the proposed method.
