Abstract
A variable gear ratio device featuring geared segments with variable gear ratio adapted for inclusion into mechanical machines, motors and pumps where there is a constant requirement for a variable transfer ratio for the variability and optimization of the load of torque that are formed by a driving shaft and driven shaft. The device features a plurality of engaged gears capable of eccentric rotation where the axis of rotation of the driven shaft is moved outside of the center axis of the driving eccentric geared segment.
Claims4
The geared segments with variable gear (drive) ratio are aimed for use mainly in mechanical machines, motors and pumps where a variable gear ratio during one revolution is required comprising:
- a driving shaft and driven shaft having a constant axial distance therebetween, said driving shaft (11) providing an axis of rotation for a driving eccentric geared segment (1) engaged thereon, said driving eccentric geared segment having a driving gearing (12) that is formed of at least three driving cogs (121) from which at least one is meshed with at least one driven cog (221) of an external driven gearing (22) that is formed on the periphery of a co-engaged (meshed) driven eccentric geared segment (2), said driven eccentric geared segment (2) engaged upon said driven shaft (21), said driven shaft providing an axis for rotation for said driven eccentric geared segment.
