Flexible Gear Rack

Flexible plastic equipment racks in 0.8 Mod (32DP) pitch. These racks can offer an easy to set up rotational drive as high as approx 270 degrees for example on camera focus bands. They also provide an economical solution where a sizable gear is necessary or a longer stretch (up to 2 metres) of linear movement is preferred. These racks are compatible with our 0.8 Mod and 32 DP pitch Spur Gears.

You can expect as standard a wide selection of Racks in Metric and Imperial sizes. Spur Racks are available in Steel (En8) and up to 2 metres in length. Stainless Steel and Delrin (Plastic material) Racks are produced with Spur and Helical tooth forms, square and round sections up to 400mm in length. Alternative materials can be found on request. Moulded Hostaform Racks are available to offer an economical alternative where less torque is required.
Variable stiffness can improve the capability of human-robot interacting. Predicated on the mechanism of a versatile rack and equipment, a rotational joint actuator named vsaFGR is proposed to modify the joint stiffness. The flexible gear rack can be regarded as a combination of a nonlinear elastic element and a linear adjusting mechanism, providing benefits of compactness. The joint stiffness is in the number of 217-3527 N.m/rad, in fact it is inversely proportional to the 4th-order of the apparatus displacement, and almost independent from the joint angular deflection, providing advantages of quick stiffness regulation in a short displacement of 20 mm. The gear displacement with regards to the flexible gear rack is usually perpendicular to the joint loading force, so the power necessary for stiffness regulating is as low as 14.4 W, providing advantages of energy conservation. The high compactness, great stiffness range and low power price of vsaFGR are proved by simulations and experiments.

Variable stiffness can improve the capacity for human-robot interacting. Based on the mechanism of a flexible rack and gear, a rotational joint actuator called vsaFGR can be proposed to regulate the joint stiffness. The flexible gear rack could be regarded as a combination of a non-linear elastic component and a linear adjusting mechanism, providing benefits of compactness. The joint stiffness is usually in the range of 217-3527 N.m/rad, and it is inversely proportional to the 4th-order of the apparatus displacement, and almost independent from the joint angular deflection, providing benefits of quick stiffness regulation in a brief displacement of 20 mm. The apparatus displacement with regards to the flexible gear rack is usually perpendicular to the joint loading pressure, so the power required for stiffness regulating is really as low as 14.4 W, providing advantages of energy conservation.
