Klaus Plath has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10473198
    Abstract: A device for power transmission includes a drive plate, a support plate, an output plate, a first main slide rail, a first drive train element, a first counterforce element, a first power transmission element, and a first output element, wherein the drive plate, support plate, and output plate are disposed above one another. The counterforce element generates a counterforce such that the total force from the driving force and the counterforce acting on the first main slide rail leads to a rotational movement of the support plate. The first power transmission element causes a rotational power transmission during rotational movement of the support plate and the first output element is connected to the output plate such that during the rotational movement of the support plate, an output power transmission connection exists from the moving part of the first main slide rail to the first output element.

  • Patent number: 7207917
    Abstract: There is described in particular a planetary gear which as is normal has a sun wheel (1), a ring gear (2) and at least one planet wheel (3). According to the invention, the planet wheel (3) is mounted rotatably on a bearing axle (10), which is provided with a power transmission axle (12) which is disposed eccentrically relative to the central axle (14) of the planet wheel (3) and is intended for power input or power output. The same arrangement is in addition described for a gear device which, instead of the sun wheel and ring gear (1, 2), has two parallel linear paths (38, 39).

  • Publication number: 20060264292
    Abstract: In particular a planetary gear system is described which, as usual, has a sun wheel (1), a ring gear (2) and at least one planet wheel (9). According to the invention, the planet wheel (9) is rotatably mounted on a bearing axle (10) which is provided with a power transmission axle (12) intended for the input or output of power and arranged eccentrically with respect to the central axis (8) of the planet wheel (9). The same arrangement is also described for a gearbox device which has two parallel, linear tracks (61, 62) instead of the sun wheel and ring gear (1, 2).
