Finite Element Analysis of Multi-roller Contact Roller-gear Cam Reducer

摘要

This paper presents the multi-roller contact roller-gear cam reducer.It's a special kind of the indexing roller-gear cam that changes the stopping stage of the indexing cam to zero and chooses the equal-velocity law.And with multi-roller contact the carrying capacity is greatly improved.In this paper,we created the 3D solid model of the main components of the reducer:the cam,the tuRNtable and the rollers.After that,we used the FEA software ANSYS Workbench to calculate the static structural behavior and the results showed us the weak or dangerous part of the mechanism so that we can optimize the structural.However the static structural behavior does not always shows the working condition.Thus we calculated the flexible dynamic behavior of the reducer and it showed us vividly that which part is weak and we could see the real deformation and stress distribution of the structural while working.Then we can pay more attention to these parts.
