Flexible Gear Rack

Flexible plastic gear racks in 0.8 Mod (32DP) pitch. These racks can provide an easy to set up rotational drive of up to approx 270 degrees for instance on camera focus bands. They also provide an economical solution where a big gear is required or a longer stretch (up to 2 metres) of linear movement is desired. These racks are compatible with our 0.8 Mod and 32 DP pitch Spur Gears.

You can expect as standard an array of Racks in Metric and Imperial sizes. Spur Racks can be found in Steel (En8) and up to 2 metres in length. STAINLESS and Delrin (Plastic-type) Racks are produced with Spur and Helical tooth forms, square and circular sections up to 400mm long. Alternative materials can be found on request. Moulded Hostaform Racks can be found to offer a cost-effective alternative where much less torque is required.
Variable stiffness can enhance the capability of human-robot interacting. Based on the mechanism of a versatile rack and gear, a rotational joint actuator called vsaFGR is definitely proposed to modify the joint stiffness. The flexible gear rack could be regarded as a mixture of a nonlinear elastic component and a linear adjusting system, providing benefits of compactness. The joint stiffness is in the range of 217-3527 N.m/rad, and it is inversely proportional to the 4th-order of the apparatus displacement, and almost independent from the joint angular deflection, providing advantages of quick stiffness regulation in a short displacement of 20 mm. The gear displacement with respect to the flexible equipment rack is definitely perpendicular to the joint loading force, so the power required for stiffness regulating is as low as 14.4 W, providing benefits of energy conservation. The high compactness, great stiffness range and low power price of vsaFGR are proved by simulations and experiments.
Flexible plastic equipment racks in 0.8 Mod (32DP) pitch. These racks can provide an easy to install rotational drive of up to approx 270 degrees for instance on camera focus rings. They also offer an economical option where a sizable gear is required or an extended stretch (up to 2 metres) of linear movement is preferred. These racks are compatible with our 0.8 Mod and 32 DP pitch Spur Gears.

Predicated on the system of a flexible rack and gear, a rotational joint actuator named vsaFGR is proposed to regulate the joint stiffness.

The joint stiffness is in the number of 217-3527 N.m/rad, in fact it is inversely proportional to the 4th-purchase of the apparatus displacement, and nearly independent from the joint angular deflection, providing advantages of quick stiffness regulation in a brief displacement of 20 mm. The apparatus displacement with respect to the flexible equipment rack is usually perpendicular to the joint loading pressure, so the power necessary for stiffness regulating is really as low as 14.4 W, providing benefits of energy conservation.
