Re: pic: CGX-115, cam-counterweighted cycloidal drive
That's really clever. I had the cad open on the grabcad site but the explosion was clear enough to get me to (mostly) figure out what was going on.
Just clarifying; because of the difference in gearing between the two cyclodial gears this goes from a powered zero to moving the difference between both "stages" every revolution.
The gear ratio should be the same as if this were a standard 2 stage cyclodial gearbox with the same number of teeth, as I understand it.
