  • Cam system capable of small discrete angular cam positions relative to a rotatable shaft
    Patent number: 6779502
    Abstract: System uses a method of securing a cam to a rotatable shaft in a discrete angular position with respect to the shaft. The device uses leaf springs along the inside diameter of the cam to lock individual sets of cam teeth to the shaft splines. Circumferential placement of the cam teeth sets of the cam permit no more than one set of cam teeth to be fully engaged with a shaft at any one time. This provides smaller and more numerous possible incremental angular positions of the cam with respect to the shaft while the remaining partially engaged sets of cam teeth provide a locking normal force to secure the cam and the fully engaged cam teeth set onto the shaft.
