Abstract

Shock free motion of an irregular gear pair is generated using a specially designed pin and slot mechanism at the gear shifting points. The pin and slot takes over the motion at the running gear ratio, gradually shifting it and then releasing the motion at the other gear ratio. The operation is partially like the pin and slot in the Geneva mechanism. The motion generated is a continuous unidirectional rotational motion with uniform ratio over most of the cycle. The design equations and constraints are derived and applied to some examples.
