Abstract
A gear stage (10), in particular of a vehicle seat (3), is embodied as a friction wheel gear stage. The gear stage includes a housing (5), a drive (12), an output (14) that is set off from the drive (12) by an excentricity (e) and at least one sphere (15) or another rolling body for the transmission of force between the drive (12) and the output (14). The position of the excentricity (e) relative to the housing (5) is arranged in a spatially fixed manner.
Claims21
A gear stage of a vehicle seat, the gear stage being a friction wheel gear stage comprising:
- a housing;
- a drive input;
- a drive output spaced apart from the drive input by an eccentricity;
- and
- at least one ball or some other rolling body provided for transmitting force between the drive input and drive output, a position of the eccentricity with respect to the housing being spatially fixed.
11-13. (canceled)
A gear stage arrangement comprising:
- a housing;
- a drive input;
- a drive output spaced apart from the drive input by an eccentricity;
- and
- a rolling body provided for transmitting force between the drive input and drive output to form a friction wheel gear stage, a position of the eccentricity with respect to the housing being fixed.
