STUDIES ON THE DESIGN AND PERFORMANCE OF A MAGNETIC PLANETARY GEAR

Laurențiu CREȚU, Petru DUȘA

Abstract


Magnetic gears are innovative devices that emulate the functionality of traditional mechanical gears using magnetic fields instead of physical contact between teeth. The subject of our concerns is the study of the performances and design elements for a planetary magnetic gear. The originality of the proposed magnetic gear lies in the fact that the arrangement of the gears and the geometric shape of the teeth allow, at the limit, mechanical engagement. The problem that arises is to determine as precisely as possible the torque capable of being transmitted at the level of two teeth and then by extrapolation, the torque capable at the level of the planetary magnetic gear can be determined.
