Abstract
The flexible gearwheel disc is configured for a high-reduction gear mechanism that has at least two gearwheel segments which are arranged next to one another in the circumferential direction of the gearwheel disc and are connected to one another by means of spring segments. The gear mechanism includes a flexible gearwheel with at least two flexible gearwheel discs. The flexible gearwheel, at the same time makes increased flexibility of the gearwheel discs or of the gearwheel in the radial direction and an increased rigidity in the circumferential direction possible. The spring segments run obliquely with respect to the circumferential direction of the gearwheel disc.
