Abstract

In a magnetic harmonic gear, the magnetic field on the high-speed side is modulated by the air-gap movement according to the rotation of the eccentric body. Owing to the modulated magnetic field, the permanent magnet layer outside the high-speed rotor rotates in synchronization with the stator composed of another permanent magnet. Therefore, transferring only the synchronous rotational motion outside the eccentric body to the output side requires a complicated conversion mechanism. In this study, we propose a magnetic harmonic gear that utilizes both the inner and outer magnetic fields of an eccentric permanent magnet layer. The outer magnetic field is utilized for the deceleration function as in the existing harmonic gear, whereas the additional inner magnetic field is utilized to extract the rotational motion. The topology of the system is verified by the harmonic analysis of the air-gap magnetic field and with experimental set-up.
