This invention provides a flexible gear and a
harmonic reducer having the same. The flexible gear has a cylindrical structure and includes a transmission part. Along the axial direction of the transmission part, the inner
peripheral wall of the transmission part has a segmented structure, and the segmented structure includes at least a first shaft segment, a second shaft segment, and a third shaft segment connected in sequence. The average wall thickness of the transmission part at the second shaft segment is not only greater than the average wall thickness of the transmission part at the first shaft segment but also greater than the average wall thickness of the transmission part at the third shaft segment. The outer
peripheral wall of the transmission part has external teeth. The first and third shaft segments have unequal inner
diameter structures, while the second shaft segment has a constant inner
diameter structure. Along the direction from the first shaft segment to the third shaft segment, the inner
diameter of the first shaft segment gradually decreases, and the inner diameter of the third shaft segment gradually increases, making it easier for the outer ring of the flexible bearing to be pressed into the inner side of the second shaft segment, and the outer ring of the flexible bearing is interference-fitted with the second shaft segment. This increases the wall thickness of the transmission part at the external teeth, improves the load-bearing strength of the external teeth, and solves the problem of easy
cracking of the side wall of the transmission part at the external teeth.
