Description
Class for defining a gearbox.
It defines a transmission ratio between two 1D entities of ChShaft type, and transmits the reaction of the gearbox to a 3D body that acts as the support truss. Note that the more basic ChShaftsGear can do the same, except that it does not provide a way to transmit reaction to a truss body. Also note that this can also be seen as a ChShaftPlanetary where one has joined the carrier shaft to a fixed body via a ChShaftBodyRotation constraint.

◆ GetTransmissionRatio()
|
inline |
Get the transmission ratio t, as in w2=t*w1, or t=w2/w1.
Also the t0 ordinary equivalent ratio of the inverted planetary, if the 3D body is rotating as in planetary gears.
◆ Initialize()
bool chrono::ChShaftsGearbox::Initialize | ( | std::shared_ptr< ChShaft > | shaft_1, |
std::shared_ptr< ChShaft > | shaft_2, | ||
std::shared_ptr< ChBodyFrame > | truss, | ||
ChVector3d & | dir | ||
) |
Initialize this gearbox, given two shafts to join, and the 3D truss body.
The truss receives the reaction torque of the gearbox. Direction is expressed in the local coordinates of the body. The shaft and body must belong to the same ChSystem.
- Parameters
-
shaft_1 first (input) shaft to join shaft_2 second (output) shaft to join truss truss body (also carrier, if rotating as in planetary gearboxes) dir the direction of the shaft on 3D body (applied on COM: pure torque)
◆ SetShaftDirection()
|
inline |
Set the direction of the shaft with respect to 3D body, as a normalized vector expressed in the coordinates of the body.
The shaft applies only torque, about this axis.
◆ SetTransmissionRatio()
void chrono::ChShaftsGearbox::SetTransmissionRatio | ( | double | t0 | ) |
Set the transmission ratio t, as in w2=t*w1, or t=w2/w1 , or t*w1 - w2 = 0.
For example, t=1 for a rigid joint; t=-0.5 for representing a couple of spur gears with teeth z1=20 & z2=40; t=0.1 for a gear with inner teeth (or epicycloidal reducer), etc. Also the t0 ordinary equivalent ratio of the inverted planetary, if the 3D body is rotating as in planetary gears.
