Abstract: The engagement of gearwheels with curvilinear teeth is intended to create small-sized mechanical gears of rotational motion with big gear ratio in one stage. The smaller gearwheel—pinion (16)—has one tooth, having in its face section the shape of circumference (3), eccentrically shifted with respect to the axis OO1 of the gearwheel (16). The curvilinear helical tooth of the gearwheel (16) (helical eccentric) is generated by sequential shifting of the circumference 3 along the axis OO1 and its continuous turning around the axis. The greater gearwheel (17) has helical teeth, generated by turning of the cycloidal curve (5), the teeth are conjugated with the helical surface of the pinion (16). The engagement has a continuous line of contact along the whole length of the tooth, where in each section a circular pin tooth and a cycloid are engaged, having minimum losses for friction. In order to eliminate axial loads, occurring in engagement of helical teeth, the gearwheels (16) and (17) are made herring-bone.

Abstract: The inventive rotation transmitting ball gear is used for increasing performance and reliability of any speed transducers in which a torque is transmitted by balls gearing with periodic grooves of links. Said invention makes it possible to improve the distribution of interaction forces between the ball and the walls of the periodic grooves and to shift the ball contact area from the groove sidewall to the bottom thereof. For this purpose, said ball gear, as a prototype, comprises elements provided with grooves on the surface thereof oriented to each other and a chain of balls simultaneously gearing with the grooves of all links, wherein the integrated amplitude of the periodic grooves of an interacting pair is equal to or less than the ball diameter.
