Abstract: Provided herein are a transmission method and a device for coaxially outputting autorotation and revolution. The axis of a power output shaft (17) and the axis of a crank of a power input shaft (1) are coincided with each other. The power output shaft (17) revolves around the axis of a main shaft of the power input shaft (1), and the revolution speed equals to the rotation speed of the power input shaft (1). After the superposition of a transition gear train (A) and a K-H-V few-tooth-difference planetary gear train (B), a driving force of the power input shaft (1) enables the power output shaft (17) to generate the autorotation which has the same speed as that of the power input shaft (1) but in the opposite direction, and at the same time, a thrust bearing (19) coaxial with the power output shaft (17) is connected to a thrust bearing (18) coaxial with the main shaft of the power input shaft (1) in series to bear axial loads.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a volume pulsed deformation plasticating and conveying method and device by an eccentric rotor. The rotation of the eccentric rotor and the rolling of the rotor in the inner cavity of a stator during constant reverse revolutions cause the volume of the material between the eccentric rotor and the stator to periodically change alternatively along the axial direction and the radial direction of the stator, thereby enabling the volume pulsed deformation plasticating and conveying of the material. The volume pulsed deformation plasticating and conveying device consists of a stator, of which the inner cavity comprises multiple alternatingly disposed spiral segments and straight segments, and an eccentric rotor comprising multiple alternatingly disposed eccentric spiral segments and eccentric straight segments. The eccentric rotor is disposed in the inner cavity of the stator.
