Abstract
An axoid force mechanism has first and second end elements, at least one of the end elements being arranged for progressive movement. First and second stocks are respectively on the first and second end elements, the first and second stocks respectively having first and second supporting surfaces that are at least portions of circular cylinders. A first intermediate member has first and second supporting surfaces that are at least portions of circular cylinders respectively engaged with the first and second supporting surfaces of the first and second stocks for rolling thereon when the one of the end elements moves progressively.

An axoid force mechanism, comprising two end elements connected with an intermediate member for transmission of movement through supporting surfaces that roll on each other with forces and speeds in accordance with formulas:
- P.sub.2 =P.sub.1 (sin .alpha..sub.1 /sin .alpha..sub.2)-.DELTA.P;
- V.sub.2 =V.sub.1 (cos .alpha..sub.1 /cos .alpha..sub.2);
- where:
- P.sub.2, P.sub.1 are forces on the end elements;
- V.sub.2,V.sub.1 are speeds of the end elements;
- .alpha..sub.2, .alpha..sub.1 are angles formed by planes passing through axes of the supporting surfaces defining directions of movements of the end elements, and .DELTA.P is a reduction of force due to friction, characterized in that the intermediate member consists of at least one succession of contact elements having supporting surfaces, which as well as the supporting surfaces of the end elements, are constructed and placed so, that, when one of the end elements moves progressively, the supporting surfaces roll without slipping to transmit forces and movement to the other of the end elements, wherein radii of the supporting surfaces in each succession satisfy the following formula:
- ##EQU2## where:
- k is number of contact elements in this succession;
- and .rho.(2j-1), .rho.(2j) are curvature radii of the supporting surfaces in area of j-th contact.
An axoid force mechanism, comprising:
- first and second end elements, at least one of the end elements being arranged for progressive movement;
- first and second stocks respectively on the first and second end elements, the first and second stocks respectively having first and second supporting surfaces that are at least portions of circular cylinders;
- and
- a first intermediate member having first and second supporting surfaces that are at least portions of circular cylinders respectively engaged with the first and second supporting surfaces of the first and second stocks for rolling thereon when the one of the end elements moves progressively.
