TROCHOID DRIVE MECHANISM AND MOBILE BODY
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/160992
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A trochoid drive mechanism is provided with: a support section (36, 42, 43, 50) for supporting a wheel (41) having an axle (411) perpendicular to a steering shaft (15) which is separated from an output shaft (121) by a distance (r) and which rotates about the output shaft (121); and a steering section (20, 30) rotating in synchronism with the steering shaft (15) and configured so that the position thereof relative to the output shaft (121) can be displaced on a rotation plane. The steering section (20, 30) is provided with: a first link mechanism (16, 32, 34, 50), etc. for adjusting the steering angle (θ) of the wheel (41) by causing the axle (411) to pivot about the steering shaft (15) in association with the displacement; and a second link mechanism (32, 42, 43, 50), etc. connected to the first link mechanism and adjusting the camber angle of the wheel (41) by tilting, on a plane perpendicular to a plane parallel to the steering angle, the axle by an angle corresponding to the steering angle.
