사이클로이드 감속기의 성능평가에 관한 연구

Abstract

In this paper, a study on the performance evaluation of a cycloid reducer for remote weapons systems ispresented. Reduction gears applied to remote weapons vehicles need to be compact and capable of large torquetransmissions as well as require structural optimization, high load capacity, and high precision position control. To meet these requirements, a cycloid reducer with low backlash, high precision, high overload capability, highrigidity, and high efficiency is required. Thus, a cycloid reducer with a reduction ratio of 127:1, backlash of 1arcmin (1/60 deg) or less, and reduction gear efficiency of 70% or more, which are the design requirements fora remote weapons system, was designed utilizing a design and analysis program (HEXAGON) for gearengineering. To confirm the performance of the cycloid reducer, the hardness of the main components of themanufactured cycloid reducer, reduction ratio, and efficiency were measured.
