The invention relates to a secondary wave type harmonic drive mechanism which is characterized by comprising first to third beraing packs, input and output shafts, a left end cove, a shell, first andsecond flexible outer gears, a rigid inner gear, first and second wave generators, a first vibrating plate, first and second one-way valves, first and second base plates, a second vibrating plate, a right end cover and an oil unloading port, wherein the input shaft is mounted on the left end cover through the first bearing pack and can rotate and the output shaft is mounted on the right end coverthrough the second bearing pack and can rotate; the first base plate and the first vibrating plate are located in an inner cavity of the first wave generator; the rigid inner gear is mounted in an inner hole of the shell through the third bearing pack, and the first flexible outer gear is located on the left side of an inner hole of the flexible inner gear and is engaged to the left inner gear atthe left end of the rigid inner gear; the second flexible outer gear is located on the right side of an inner hole of the rigid inner gear and is engaged to the right inner gear at the right end of the rigid inner gear, and the second vibrating plate and the second base plate are located in the second wave generator. The secondary wave type harmonic drive mechanism is extremely high in feeding resolution, repeated positioning precision and moving stability, and also has the advantages of being ultrahigh in fine adjusting precision, simple in structure, reliable in performance, long in integralservice life and the like.
