• the axial joining of these two parts prevents the appearance of vibrations and the premature wear which accompany them and limits the misalignment penalizing the operation of the reducer.
• hooks (50) integrated into the gear wheel (12) is not limiting on the invention, the hooks (50) being able alternatively to be integrated into the output wheel (18) and the cavities (51 ) to the gear wheel (12), but those skilled in the art could also imagine all kinds of solutions aimed at constraining axial displacement between the output wheel (18) and the gear wheel (12) while leaving free mobility in an orthogonal plane.
• This embodiment also differs in that a ring (52) made of a very rigid material, such as steel, is inserted on the outer periphery of the housing (14) at the level of the indented inner shape (15), so as to compensate for the radial deformations of the housing (14) due to the forces between the gear wheel (12) and the internal serrated shape (15).
• This ring (52) is particularly useful when the inner serrated shape (15) is an integral part of a plastic housing (14).
• the use of such a ring (52) is nevertheless not conditioned on the use of plastic materials, but can be considered as soon as the forces involved are too great and risks deforming the indented inner shape (15).
• the use of such a ring (52) is not limiting to the embodiment presented and can be attached to the periphery of the stator assembly (2) when the indented inner shape (15) is directly produced in its overmolding.
• Figures 18a, 18b, 18c and 18d show a fourteenth embodiment. It differs from the previous embodiments in that it comprises an external rotor motor and a so-called deformation wave or elliptical reduction gear.
• the rotor assembly (26) is sandwiched by the stator assembly (2), the latter also performing the function of an overmolded casing (14), this embodiment however not being limited to the casing. can be a separate part and attached to the stator assembly.
• the rotor assembly (26) and more particularly the magnetic ring (8) cooperates magnetically with the field created by the coils (3) of the stator assembly (2) on the outer radial periphery of the stator.
• the rotor assembly (26) is guided at least in part in the interior space (6) of the stator assembly (2) by bearings (37), or plain bearings, inserted between the support (9) of the rotor assembly (26) and the output shaft (19).
• Said output shaft (19) itself being guided by a plain bearing (25) or by means of a rolling element (not shown).
• the shaft (10) of the rotor support (9) guides an elliptical plate (300) composed of an elliptical hub (301) supporting a special bearing (302) deforming the external toothed deformable bush (303) which meshes with the ring gear internal toothed (304).
• the latter can be attached, overmolded or form an integral part of the stator assembly (2) or of the housing (14).
• the rotatably driven elliptical plate (300) deforms the toothed bush (303) which has a slightly lower number of teeth, generally two fewer teeth, than the inner ring gear (304).
• said internal toothed ring (304) is most often static and the reduced output movement is taken up by the deformable bush (303), here linked to the connection shaft (22) forming a large diameter plate allowing transmission. high loads on the device to be controlled and thereby closing the actuator.
• the sleeve (303) can be locked in rotation and the output movement can then be transmitted by the crown (304).
• connection shaft (22) is here guided by a large-diameter bearing (21) advantageously located close to the meshing plane of the reducer and capable of directly sealing the system (or via a dynamic seal, not illustrated).
• the shaft (19), shown here, is hollow for the purpose of lightening the mass of the system.
• the hollow shaft (19) can make it possible to obtain an output on each side of the actuator and / or allow the passage of a fluid, cables, axis, etc., through the actuator.
• Fig. 19 shows an exploded view of a fifteenth embodiment.
• This is a variant of the first embodiment for which the gear wheel (12) has axial extensions (17) cooperating with cavities (16) here made in an insert (401) rigidly linked to the 'stator assembly (2).
• the eccentric shaft (10) drives the disc (12) with a circular translational movement and the reduced rotational movement is then recovered by the indented inner shape (15) then rigidly linked to the output disc (18) in order to to form a single piece, the latter here advantageously surrounds the serrated shape (15) in order to stiffen it and limit its ovalization under load.
• the cavities (16) can be made directly in the disc (12) or via one or more inserts, and the axial extensions (17) can be made by the insert (401).
• the insert (s) (401) can be clipped, screwed or overmolded in the housing (14) or in the stator assembly (2), the cavities (16) or axial extension (17) being able to be produced directly by means of the overmolding of the disc (12) or of the stator assembly (2).
• the rotor assembly (26) is produced by means of magnet blocks (8) inserted in the ferromagnetic yoke (9), itself driven out or overmolded on the axis (10).
• This variant also presents an encoder (405) which can be magnetic, ferromagnetic or of the optical barrier type makes it possible here to obtain the position of the rotor assembly (26) via a probe or sensor (not shown) linked to the printed circuit (5). ) or placed independently.
• this variant embodiment uses a seal (406) making it possible to ensure the seal between the housing (14) and the rotor assembly (2) here overmolded.
