Flexible Gear Rack

Flexible plastic equipment racks in 0.8 Mod (32DP) pitch. These racks can provide an easy to install rotational drive of up to approx 270 degrees for instance on camera focus rings. They also provide an economical remedy where a huge gear is required or a longer stretch (up to 2 metres) of linear motion is preferred. These racks are compatible with our 0.8 Mod and 32 DP pitch Spur Gears.
EVER-POWER share racks are made for high precision linear motion applications. You can expect a large selection of racks ranging from module 0.5 to 10 and lengths from 100 to 2000 mm.

Ground Helical Racks (KRHG – KRHGF – KRHGFD) : Excellent items with high precision and power, and low noise and abrasion characteristics.
Steel Helical Racks (SRH – SRHF – SRHFD) : Effective in reducing noise and vibration because of larger contact ratio of helical gears.
Molded Versatile Racks (DR) : Used in applications because of its flexibility, where metallic racks do no have this attribute. Pinions and accessories are also available.
Molded Versatile Rack Clamps (SRS) : Used to secure Molded Flexible Racks.
Molded Flexible Rack Pinions (SSDR) : Spur pinions used for molded versatile racks.

You can expect as standard a wide variety of Racks in Metric and Imperial sizes. Spur Racks can be found in Steel (En8) or more to 2 metres in length. STAINLESS and Delrin (Plastic-type) Racks are created with Spur and Helical tooth forms, square and circular sections up to 400mm long. Alternative materials can be found on request. Moulded Hostaform Racks can be found to offer an economical alternative where less torque is required.
Variable stiffness can enhance the capacity for human-robot interacting. Based on the system of a versatile rack and gear, a rotational joint actuator named vsaFGR can be proposed to modify the joint stiffness. The flexible gear rack can be regarded as a mixture of a non-linear elastic element and a linear adjusting system, providing benefits of compactness. The joint stiffness is certainly in the range of 217-3527 N.m/rad, in fact it is inversely proportional to the 4th-order of the apparatus displacement, and almost independent from the joint angular deflection, providing advantages of quick stiffness regulation in a short displacement of 20 mm. The apparatus displacement with respect to the flexible equipment rack is perpendicular to the joint loading pressure, so the power required for stiffness regulating is as low as 14.4 W, providing advantages of energy saving. The high compactness, great stiffness range and low power cost of vsaFGR are proved by simulations and experiments.

Variable stiffness can improve the capability of human-robot interacting. Predicated on the mechanism of a flexible rack and equipment, a rotational joint actuator named vsaFGR is proposed to modify the joint stiffness. The flexible gear rack could be regarded as a mixture of a nonlinear elastic component and a linear adjusting mechanism, providing benefits of compactness. The joint stiffness is usually in the number of 217-3527 N.m/rad, and it is inversely proportional to the 4th-order of the apparatus displacement, and almost independent from the joint angular deflection, providing advantages of quick stiffness regulation in a short displacement of 20 mm. The apparatus displacement with respect to the flexible gear rack is certainly perpendicular to the joint loading push, so the power necessary for stiffness regulating is really as low as 14.4 W, providing benefits of energy conservation.
