Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of manipulators, in particular to a highly flexible robot gripper. Background Art
[0002] The main reducer is a mechanism that can change torque and rotational speed in the drive axle. Its basic function is to increase the torque from the transmission or the universal drive device, while reducing the rotational speed and changing the transmission direction of the torque. The main reducer consists of one or several pairs of reduction gear pairs. Power is input from the driving gear and output through the driven gear. The main reducer is a main component in the transmission system that reduces rotational speed and increases torque. When the engine is longitudinally installed, it also has the function of changing the rotational direction of the torque. It relies on the gear with fewer teeth to drive the gear with more teeth to achieve speed reduction. Using bevel gear transmission can change the rotational direction of the torque.
