Abstract
The present invention is characterized by comprising: a pair of worm shafts, which are arranged in parallel with each other so as to have gear directions that are opposite to each other, and which are configured to be rotated in the same direction by a driving means; a following shaft that crosses the middle of the pair of worm shafts in the perpendicular direction; a pair of ring gears fixedly installed on the following shaft so as to face each other from both sides of the worm shafts; a worm wheel, which engages with the outer side of each worm shaft, and which has shaft gears formed on both sides thereof, respectively, such that the shaft gears engage with the ring gears; and a rotating member connected to the following shaft such that a rotating force, which is in a speed-reduced sate, is output.
Claims8
A speed reducer comprising:
- a pair of worm shafts having teeth angled in opposite directions to each other, the worm shafts being arranged parallel to each other and being configured to be rotated in a same direction as each other by a driving unit;
- a driven shaft mounted between the worm shafts so as to extend in a direction perpendicular to the worm shafts;
- a pair of ring gears mounted so as to face each other, with the worm shafts interposed therebetween, the ring gears being fixed to the driven shaft;
- a worm wheel configured to mesh with an outer side of each of the worm shafts, the worm wheel having shaft gears formed at both sides thereof so as to mesh with the ring gears;
- and
- a rotary member connected to the driven shaft to output rotational force with a speed reduced.
