Patent number: 11313448Abstract: A harmonic drive including a housing component (4) and a drive element (18) which is held on the housing component, can be deformed by a wave generator (14), is in the form of a flanged bushing and has a toothing region (17) having a cylindrical basic shape and a disc section (19) which adjoins the toothing region (17). Adjoining the disc section (19) there is a bushing section (20) which is concentric to the toothing region (17), overlaps the latter in the axial direction and is held interlockingly between a cylindrical edge section (21), which is thick-walled in comparison with the bushing section (20), of the housing component (4) and an intrinsically rigid component (22) which is likewise solid in comparison with the flanged bushing (18).Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2018Date of Patent: April 26, 2022Assignee: Schaeffler Technologies AG & Co. KGInventors: Jurgen Weber, Marco Hildebrand, Daniel Heise

Patent number: 10900551Abstract: A harmonic drive comprises a wave generator, a resilient, geared transmission element that can be deformed by the wave generator, a connecting element on the housing side, and a connecting element on the output side. The resilient transmission element has two different tooth systems, a spline tooth system and a running tooth system; the spline tooth system is coupled along the entire circumference to one of the connecting elements for conjoint rotation therewith, and the running tooth system is provided for cooperation with the wave generator and partial engagement in a mating running tooth system on the other connecting element.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 2018Date of Patent: January 26, 2021Assignee: Schaeffler Technologies AG & Co. KGInventor: Daniel Heise

Patent number: 10865663Abstract: A camshaft adjusting system (1) is provided for a first camshaft (2) and a second camshaft (3) which are arranged concentrically with respect to one another, the second camshaft (3) being arranged within the first camshaft (2). A vane-cell type hydraulic camshaft adjuster (4) is configured for adjusting the first camshaft (2) and an electric camshaft adjuster (5) is configured for adjusting the second camshaft (3). A front cover (7) which is fastened to a stator (6) of the hydraulic camshaft adjuster (4) and which closes off the camshaft adjuster (4) at a side facing away from the camshaft has an internal toothing (8) for supporting a flex pot (9) which is attached to the second camshaft (3) and which is designed for receiving torque from the electric camshaft adjuster (5). A camshaft adjusting unit having the camshaft adjusting system (1) and two camshafts (2, 3) is also provided.Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 2019Date of Patent: December 15, 2020Assignee: SCHAEFFLER TECHNOLOGIES AG & CO.

Patent number: 10781724Abstract: A camshaft adjusting system (1) is provided for a first camshaft (2) and a second camshaft (3) which are arranged concentrically with respect to one another, the second camshaft being arranged inside the first camshaft. A hydraulic camshaft adjuster (4) of the vane-cell type is set up for the adjustment of the first camshaft, and an electric camshaft adjuster (5) is set up for the adjustment of the second camshaft. A rotor contact flange (17) of an output ring (6) of the electric camshaft adjuster is arranged radially inside a first cover (23) of the hydraulic adjuster, the output ring which is equipped for the transmission of torque to the second camshaft is arranged at least partially radially and axially inside a rotor (7) of the hydraulic camshaft adjuster. A camshaft adjusting unit is also provided having a camshaft adjusting system of this type and two camshafts.Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 2019Date of Patent: September 22, 2020Assignee: SCHAEFFLER TECHNOLOGIES AG & CO.
