Cycloidal drives belong to the group of planetary gear drives. The article presents the process of modelling a cycloidal gear. The full profile of the planetary gear is determined from the following parameters: ratio of the drive, eccentricity value, the equidistant (ring gear roller radius), epicycloid reduction ratio, roller placement diameter in the ring gear. Joong-Ho Shin's and Soon-Man Kwon's article (Shin and Know, 2006) was used to determine the profile outline of the cycloidal planetary gear lobes. The result was a scatter chart with smooth lines and markers, presenting the full outline of the cycloidal gear.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
