  • Patent number: 11499609
    Abstract: A torque transmission device has a pinion that includes a plurality of rollers that mesh with a plurality of teeth of an output. Each roller is supported by a bearing having rotating bearing elements. A clearance compensation for the diametrical difference between a diameter of each roller and an inscribed diameter of the associated rotating bearing elements is included in the plurality of teeth of the output such that there is no interference between the plurality of rollers and the plurality of teeth.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 29, 2019
    Date of Patent: November 15, 2022

  • Patent number: 11365796
    Abstract: A motion control apparatus in the form of a sealed rotary table (10) includes a first annular seal (54) located between a bearing cap (48) of a case and an inner diameter of a cylindrical flange (60), and a second annular seal (56) located between a seal ledge (22) of an annular wall (18) of the case and the outer diameter of the cylindrical flange (60). An enclosure (24), the annular wall (18) and a planar annular disc (16) are integrally formed as a single piece part of homogenous material. A drive station (12) includes a rotor (110) rotatably mounted inside an annular sleeve (118) by a bearing (140) inside an annular end cap (136) at an axial extent less than that of the annular sleeve (118). An encoder (150) is located within the annular end cap (136) and within the axial extent of the annular sleeve (118).
