You could just print a second tire and use them to hold up a platform that you can then place weights on. You can then use both gearboxes that you have printed in order to determine wear and condition changes over the same period while applying load to the gear boxes. This will allow an expansion of your testing because you can slowly expand this out into a small automobile with actual wheels for road testing

Just for your information, the tread design on that tire is suppose to be the reverse of how you have it rotating. Where the two lugs overlap in the center should be pointed in the direction of rotation. Sort of like an arrow that points where you are suppose to go. While not important for what you were doing with it, if it was on a vehicle pulling a load and the wheels started to slip for any reason, it would allow the soil to be pushed off to the side rather than generate enough pressure to damage or break the lugs off.

DRILL/Impact gearbox!!!! Impacts and drills have some crazy reductions that get abused- so many good tool channels out there, a few that take them apart. Your design looks like it was made for it. The possibility of turning a larger outer "ring" for the drive instead of being limited by the shaft that has to spin inside is a HUGE deal. Especially for an impact where the rotating mass and it's moment of inertia is what results in crazy power. In the case of small drives like ratchets/electric wrenches, it could be used to move the ratchet mechanism away from the head itself. (Would still need to solve turning the drive axis 90deg) And finally -- offroad trucks/equipment especially. I'm curious how it handles changes in direction/ acceleration/load because the control involved in that reduction would be amazing. Additionally- if it can handle high input speeds, a CVT as a first stage might make for an incredible heavy equipment/semi gearbox
@eelcohoogendoorn8044 Жыл бұрын
Awesome build. Didnt think there were any gearbox topologies I wasnt aware of yet, but seeing a new one definitely earns a subscribe. I suppose one drawback compared to a central cam is that the bearing loads are less self balancing; if you want some low backlash and low preload you need to work those cam bearings with a static radial load. Perhaps a nice way to reduce the bearing requirements would be to put the herringbone sandwiched between the offset cams (or one-tooth gears). Then if you give both sides of the ring a bit of a taper, you can preload the whole system by adjusting the clamping force on both halves of the ring; and it should also be self-energizing; you can run it at a low zero-load preload setting for efficient low torque zero backlash operation, but the radial forces should increase in lockstep with the torque demand. All without bother any bearings with those radial forces!

Some excel sheet will help to get the best numbers.

How about testing your hearing on a hydro powered sprinkler setup with a radial arm of say 150 feet where the pump supplying water to the sprinkler system is also powering your gears as it passes through. The weight of the water and the terain it would be traveling over would put load on your gears. It would need two tires for stability and they would need to be larger and move slower so gear reduction would be needed however it would give your gear setup a functional use as well as test it under load. Powering it with water wouldn’t be necessary but it would add a challenge and reuse the energy already being spent on pushing it out of the sprinkler and giving it dual purposes. Btw your tire is on backwards. the tread on a tire is meant for sipping which is pushing mud dirt etc out and away from the path of the tire rather then cupping it and pulling it towards the middle.
