The threaded connection depth of the adjusting screw 20 and the integrated flexible planetary carrier 10 can be directly adjusted through the adjusting screw 20.
Further, by adjusting the threaded connection depth of the adjusting screw 20 and the integrated flexible planet carrier 10, the adjusting screw deforms the extrusion spring 21 and transmits pressure to the movable platform 13 of the planet carrier 10, so that the movable platform elastically moves along the radial direction of the planet carrier 10, and further, the planet gear shaft bearing hole in the integrated flexible planet carrier elastically rotates around the center of the integrated flexible planet carrier in the circumferential direction.
Further, the integrated flexible planet carrier 10 comprises a first ring member 101, a plurality of second ring members 102 and two movable platforms 13, wherein the second ring members 102 are symmetrically arranged around the central ring member, the first ring member is provided with a planet carrier central shaft bearing hole 16, the second ring member is provided with a planet gear shaft bearing hole 12, the two movable platforms 13 are distributed on two sides of the integrated flexible planet carrier 10, each movable platform 13 is arranged between two adjacent second ring members 102, the first ring member 101 is connected with each second ring member 102 through a first elastic connecting piece, and the movable platforms 13 are connected with the adjacent second ring members 102 through a second elastic connecting piece.
