  • ANTI-BACKLASH APPARATUS AND AN ACTUATOR WITH ANTI-BACKLASH TRANSMISSION
    Publication number: 20240077291
    Abstract: Apparatuses and techniques for reducing backlash between components in a transmission system are provided. The apparatuses and techniques provide a controllable torque over a target range of motion of a component in the transmission system. This eliminates the play at the interfaces between components and forces the components to maintain a controlled contact between the interfacing surfaces.
