The book introduces the design of planetary gear transmissions and provides in-depth coverage of a planetary gearbox with 2-DOF. It emphasizes the fundamental mechanical concepts and illustrates the theory with the worked out designs and prototypes. Also, the book presents key areas of kinematics, dynamics and testing of a planetary gearbox with 2-DOF. A new planetary gearbox has two degrees of freedom and it can be used to adjust the transmission ratio according to the externally applied load. A basic modeling is formulated to characterize both its design and operation. A detailed 3D CAD...
