Abstract: By utilizing a mechanical backlash generated between an electric actuator and a shift range switching mechanism, a specific region is obtained, in which a variation in the output shaft angle is relatively small with respect to a variation in rotor angle. In this specific range, an actual shift range position is calculated, whereby the rotor angle that the motor controller recognizes is corrected so as to relate the actual shift range position. A deviation between the rotor angle and the actual shift range is corrected, so that the shift range switching is precisely performed.

Abstract: Apparatus for reducing backlash in a gear wheel that includes at least two interacting gear rims that rotate in relation to one another. An adjusting mechanism is located between the gear rims for adjusting the relative angle of rotation of the gear rims about a common axis of rotation. Each adjusting mechanism includes an hydraulic cylinder connected to a pressure medium source and which is arranged to act between the two gear rims in such a manner that a force arises that tends to displace one gear rim in relation to the other about the axis of rotation. Each of the hydraulic cylinders extends at an angle to a disk plane and is supported on a part-spherical foot portion in a bowl-shaped seat in one gear rim and a corresponding part-spherical head portion in a bowl-shaped seat in the other gear rim.

Abstract: A positioning device without backlash includes a table and at least one gear operatively associated with the table. At least one worm gear is connected to the gear and the gear is driven in a desired direction with a primary motor and a synchronized slave motor. The synchronized slave motor is then reversible to remove the backlash in the positioning device thereby permitting an actual position to correspond with a dialed-in position.

Abstract: A gear mechanism includes a driving gear, a driven gear, and an idler gear which is in mesh with the driving gear and the driven gear, wherein rotation of the driving gear is transferred to the driven gear via the idler gear. The idler gear includes first and second spur gears which are positioned adjacent to each other in an axial direction and are generally centered about a common axis, radial teeth of the first and second spur gears each being the same in shape, pitch and the number of teeth, and the first and second spur gears being biased to rotate in opposite directions. The first and second spur gears are connected so as to be relatively movable in a radial direction normal to the axial direction while maintaining the first and second spur gears in mesh with the driving gear and the driven gear.

Abstract: A gearing radius of a worm wheel is set corresponding to a neighborhood region of a steering neutral position, in such a way as to be relatively large. Thus, backlash is made to be relatively small. This prevents noises from being produced when an automobile travels straight on a bad road. Conversely, the backlash is set corresponding to most of regions of steering angles, which are within the remaining region thereof, in such a manner as to be relatively large. Thus, increase in resistance torque is suppressed. This is realized by a simple configuration in which a bias portion is provided in a part of the profile of teeth. In a case where power is transmitted from an electric motor by a worm shaft and a worm wheel during a steering operation, noises are hard to be produced even when the automobile travels on a bad road.

Abstract translation: 蜗轮的齿轮半径被设定为对应于转向中立位置的邻域，以相对较大的方式。 因此，齿隙相对较小。 这样可以防止汽车在恶劣的道路上直线行驶时产生噪音。 相反，对应于处于其剩余区域内的转向角的大部分区域，以相对较大的方式设定齿隙。 因此，抑制了电阻转矩的增加。 这通过简单的构造来实现，其中在牙齿轮廓的一部分中设置偏置部分。 在转向操作期间通过蜗杆轴和蜗轮从电动机传递动力的情况下，即使在汽车在恶劣的道路上行驶时也难以产生噪声。

Abstract: A mechanism for de-lashing a gear assembly includes a first gear rotatable about a first axis and a first center rotatably fixed to the first axis and a first conical teeth portion. The gear assembly includes a second gear rotatable about a second axis and a second center rotatably fixed to said second axis and a second conical teeth portion configured to meshingly engage first conical teeth portion when the first and second gears are aligned substantially coplanarly. A biasing means operably biases the second conical teeth portion of the second gear against the first conical teeth portion of the first gear to reduce any lash therebetween. The biasing means is configured to bias the second gear in an axial direction while maintaining a fixed center distance between the first and second axes. The first gear is rotatably fixed about the fixed first axis such that the first gear is prevented from translation along the fixed first axis.

Abstract: A worm 1 is composed of an annular tooth body 11 having a tooth 10 on the outer surface thereof, a core body 12 inserted inside the annular tooth body 11; and an elastic coupler 13, which can be transformed in the radial direction, for coupling the core body 12 with the annular tooth body 11. The worm 1 is engaged with the worm wheel with the elastic coupler 13 being transformed in the radial direction in such a manner that a negative amount of backlash is generated at the engagement portion. This can be also employed for the worm wheel. With a reduction gear combination having this structure, the backlash amount at the engagement portion can be adjusted to a proper amount without selecting elements such as the worm and the worm wheel to be assembled.

Abstract: A gear drive, including a first shaft, a first gear wheel on the first shaft, a second shaft a certain distance away from the first shaft, and a second gear on the second shaft. The second gear wheel engaged with the first gear wheel by way of helical gearing. A third gear wheel is mounted on the second shaft a certain axial distance away from the second gear wheel to compensate for backlash. The third gear wheel also engages with the first gear wheel by way of helical gearing and being axially shiftable with respect to the second gear wheel. An expansion element is arranged so as to change a distance between the second gear wheel and the third gear wheel as a function of temperature. The expansion element has a thermal expansion selected so that, when the expansion element undergoes thermal expansion, the expansion element shifts the third gear wheel in an axial direction along the second shaft and thus, due to a helical gearing effect, compensates for play caused by a thermally induced change in the distance between the first shaft and the second shaft.
