Embodiment Construction

[0026] The present disclosure relates to actuator assemblies that maximize fatigue strength and mechanical durability and provide ingress protection against accidental fluid spills or splashes, such as in food and beverage applications, commercial vehicle applications, and other industrial applications. More specifically, the actuator assembly includes a drive gear configured to absorb forces applied to the drive gear (e.g., an external drive mechanism) during operation in a manner that maximizes the fatigue strength and mechanical durability of the drive gear. torsional load at a specific radial distance). For example, when a drive gear is operably coupled to an external drive mechanism (e.g., a rack and pinion, lever, link, or belt), the torsional load that the drive gear receives from the external drive mechanism is directed to a specific portion of the drive gear ( It has a higher strength than the rest of the drive gear). For example, the torsional loads that the drive g...

Abstract

A drive gear adapted to be disposed in a gearbox includes a body having a periphery and a skirt extending outwardly from the periphery of the body. A plurality of teeth extends outwardly from the body along a portion of the perimeter of the body. An opening extends through the body and is defined by an inner surface of the body. The inner surface includes a plurality of planar portions and a plurality of rounded portions extending between the plurality of planar portions. The plurality of planar portions are arranged such that a force (e.g., torque) applied to the body is directed toward the plurality of teeth.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to actuator assemblies, and in particular, to actuator assemblies that maximize fatigue strength and mechanical durability and provide ingress protection. Background technique [0002] Actuators are often used in, for example, food and beverage applications, commercial vehicle applications, and other industrial applications. In these applications, the electrical and mechanical components of the actuator are often exposed to washdown (as part of routine maintenance), accidental fluid spills, or splashing fluid. It should be understood that these spills or splashes may short out one or more of the electrical components, corrode one or more of the mechanical components, or otherwise interfere with the operation of the actuator, thereby shortening the actuator over time. service life. Contents of the invention [0003] According to a first aspect, a drive gear is provided. The drive gear includes a body having ...
