Cool Gearing: Sun to Sun Epicyclic Gearing
Рет қаралды 5,203
Күн бұрынDavid Hartkop demonstrates an interesting 3D printed planetary gearbox: Sun-To-Sun Epycyclic gearing with Stepped Planets of Incremental Phase Offset (STSEGWSPOIPO for short... lol).

I enjoyed this. The clear breakdown of seeing a bunch of familiar concepts be put together in an interesting way. The screw bushings seemed neat! I'll see if I can buy some. I've had fun with making silly custom ball bearings with 3 mm balls and reinforcing the inner part by an M3 screw encased in 0.4 mm thick walls. It works well enough, but a simple metal bushing like that seems brilliant.

Cool design! I think what this is actually called is a split ring compound planetary gearbox. Neat how multiple people came up with the same idea independently
@davoriffic 7 ай бұрын
It's definitely a kind of that. It's actually a very old design, as it turns out, the split ring, or compound ring. This one is a little different in that there is not an internal gear, just planets that go around two suns.

I would call this a carrier-driven split sun compound planetary gearbox.

This is so cool! It reminds me of a harmonic drive, with the added benefit of not needing exotic deformable parts.
@davoriffic 4 ай бұрын
Yes, like a lot of planetary gear boxes it lets you achieve a high ratio; harmonic drives are awesome because of their low part count, but hard to do with just printed plastic. The gearbox in this video is really trying to show how to make hard-to-shear gear boxes out of plastic. It puts mechanical strength where it is needed to let you use a comparatively weak material, and still be reasonably compact. You DO have to use grease ;-D

Think is a cool idea, similar but slightly different from the split ring planetary, I still can't get my head around how does the middle sun gear 1 tooth off but the same diameter ?.
@davoriffic 19 күн бұрын
@@leogray1091 oh it’s less mysterious than you think; the side with the one less tooth has teeth that are slightly bigger to make up the size difference🤓 in gears, the ‘module’ is a number for the gear tooth size, the the module for all the gears that touch on one side is different from all the gears on the other

Hi there, I wanted to let you know that I uploaded the fusion files for this project: drive.google.com/file/d/1O3kef-J0OegvHsAzybsqPwGzc6PpsYLA/view?usp=drive_link The Joint that you want to drive is called, "gear carrier to body" and it is the first one in the long list of joints in the assembly. Have fun!

Very interesting! It is a variation of split-ring compound planetary gearbox, but better in some respects. I have an application for something like this, and am interested in your thoughts: I am not as interested in small size, high torque conversion, or high speed. I am concerned with positioning accuracy, smooth operation, and lack of "stiction." Lack of backlash is important, but not a primary concern as output need only turn in one direction, not forward/reverse. I'm thinking perhaps using a split helical tooth pattern. [May need to open outer rings for assembly.]
@davoriffic 4 ай бұрын
What kinds of ratios and speeds do you need? These split gear designs are good for high gear ratio, but do have some 'bumpiness' in their operation. It is difficult to make them run smoothly; helical gears like you said are good for smooth and quiet rotation. Maybe you need a more classical type planetary gearbox?

Have you tried adding lubricant to it? Gears are not supposed to run dry against eachother and adding the right type of lube would reduce friction and wear in the system, allowing for even greater performance.

Yes I actually did use clear silicone grease; you can’t see it in the video very well but it helped a lot

In answering a general question about choosing the # of teeth for planetary gearing, here is a little spreadsheet that will help you find a working combination: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1XEwKdiKt8lfYlEomOAFtGzXVUjcG9FMyumV5H4kTQeo/edit?usp=sharing

Very cool design! I 3d printed one and got it to work at about 10 nm of torque at max speed! But i have a doubt (sorry if its dumb, i'm quite new) if the ratio is 300:1 and my nema 17 motor is rated at 0.5nm i would expect a torque of 150nm when using this gearset(in ideal conditons). If i'm getting at max 10nm out of it doesn't it mean it is 6.6% efficient? That sounds very low, where are all those losses? Is all of it friction? I'm not sure where to start researching.
@davoriffic 6 ай бұрын
While it is theoretically 300:1, this style gear box is pretty inefficient. Also lubrication makes a difference, plus running a stepper motor too fast will reduce how much torque it can produce. What a wonderful experiment; can you share a picture / video? Would love to see somebody else's version of this thing! Nice work. 😀

@davoriffic Defenetly! I was planning on sharing a short demo video, but your video is so nice that I want to try and record a proper one laying out my tests, results and doubts. It's going to be my first time recording and editing, but I hope I can have it soon! I'm honestly a complete noob in mechanics and robotics, I'm just starting out, so I might have made wrong assumptions, lets see how it goes.

It cannot. The friction forces are way the heck too high at that 300:1 ratio. At least with plastic gears.

You know, there's a chance it could! I'm picturing using it to turn a winch spool, and probably replacing the stepper motor with a brushless 3 phase motor like you find in a drone or race car.
