Patent number: 6644947Abstract: This invention is directed to a novel wave tooth gear having a non-circular pitch curve and uniform wave teeth to create a tighter seal between meshing gears. The non-circular wave tooth gear has a major axis and a minor axis disposed perpendicular to the major axis, wherein the major axis is longer than the minor axis and includes a central hub, a plurality of teeth radially extending from the hub at locations surrounding the hub and a plurality of roots, each root positioned between adjacent teeth at locations surrounding the gear. The teeth include a head portion shaped as an arc segment of a first radius and the roots include a recess shaped as an arc segment of a second radius. The teeth heads are joined to adjacent roots by lines of tangency.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2002Date of Patent: November 11, 2003Assignee: Tuthill CorporationInventor: Craig Cavanaugh
