Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Verstellvorrichtung zur Relatiwerstellung einer Nockenwelle bezüglich eines die Nockenwelle koaxial antreibenden Antriebsrads, wobei das Antriebsrad und die Nockenwelle bezüglich einer Zentralachse der Verstellvorrichtung koaxial angeordnet sind.The invention relates to an adjusting device for Relatiwerstellung a camshaft with respect to a camshaft coaxially driving drive wheel, wherein the drive wheel and the camshaft are arranged coaxially with respect to a central axis of the adjusting device.
Bei einer Verbrennungskraftmaschine eines Kraftfahrzeugs ist die Kurbelwelle über einen Kettentrieb, einen Zahnriementrieb oder einen Zahntrieb mit einem Antriebsrad gekoppelt, das die Nockenwelle im Wesentlichen synchron zu der Kurbelwelle antreibt. Ober die Nockenwelle werden die Ventilöffnungszeiten der Verbrennungskraftmaschine gesteuert. Durch eine Verstellvorrichtung der genannten Art kann die Phasenlage der Nockenwelle relativ zu dem Antriebsrad (und somit relativ zu der Kurbelwelle) gezielt verändert werden, um Einfluss auf die in der Verbrennungskraftmaschine stattfindenden Brennvorgänge zu nehmen. Hierfür kann zwischen dem Antriebsrad und der Nockenwelle ein Stellgetriebe wirksam sein, das mittels eines Elektromotors antreibbar ist, um die Nockenwelle relativ zu dem Antriebsrad zu verstellen. Die Verwendung eines Elektromotors gestattet eine besonders genaue Steuerung.In an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle, the crankshaft is coupled via a chain drive, a toothed belt drive or a toothed drive with a drive wheel which drives the camshaft substantially synchronously with the crankshaft. The valve opening times of the internal combustion engine are controlled via the camshaft. By an adjusting device of the type mentioned, the phase position of the camshaft relative to the drive wheel (and thus relative to the crankshaft) can be selectively changed to influence the combustion processes taking place in the internal combustion engine. For this purpose, a control gear can be effective between the drive wheel and the camshaft, which can be driven by means of an electric motor to adjust the camshaft relative to the drive wheel. The use of an electric motor allows a particularly accurate control.
Das Stellgetriebe bildet in einer derartigen Anordnung ein Summiergetriebe, bei dem das Antriebsrad einem ersten Eingang zugeordnet ist, ein Ausgangselement des Elektromotors (z.B. ein Motorritzel) einem zweiten Eingang zugeordnet ist und die Nockenwelle oder ein Nockenwellenabschnitt (z.B. ein Nockenwellenflansch) einem Ausgang des Summiergetriebes zugeordnet ist. Hierbei ist es von Vorteil, wenn das Antriebsrad, das Ausgangselement des Elektromotors und die Nockenwelle koaxial zueinander drehbar sind, damit die gesamte Einheit aus Antriebsrad, Elektromotor, Stellgetriebe und Nockenwelle um eine gemeinsame Achse, die so genannte Zentralachse, rotieren kann.The actuating mechanism in such an arrangement forms a summing gear in which the drive wheel is associated with a first input, an output element of the electric motor (eg a motor pinion) is associated with a second input and the camshaft or camshaft section (eg a camshaft flange) is associated with an output of the summing gear is. It is advantageous if the drive wheel, the Output member of the electric motor and the camshaft are rotatable coaxially with each other, so that the entire unit of drive wheel, electric motor, control gear and camshaft about a common axis, the so-called central axis, can rotate.
Um die Nockenwelle relativ zu dem Antriebsrad verstellen zu können, müssen vergleichsweise hohe Drehmomente aufgebracht werden. Damit diese Funktion von einem klein bauenden, schnell laufenden Elektromotor erfüllt werden kann, muss das Stellgetriebe eine hohe Übersetzung der Drehzahl des Elektromotors ins Langsame bewirken (bezogen auf ein festgehaltenes Antriebsrad). Hierfür kann das Stellgetriebe ein innenverzahntes Zahnrad und ein hiermit in Eingriff stehendes außenverzahntes Zahnrad aufweisen, wobei das innenverzahnte Zahnrad um die genannte Zentralachse drehbar ist und das außenverzahnte Zahnrad bezüglich der Zentralachse exzentrisch angeordnet ist und in dieser exzentrischen Anordnung zu einer Kreisbewegung um die Zentralachse antreibbar ist. Der genannten Kreisbewegung ist hierbei - da das außenverzahnte Zahnrad an dem innenverzahnten Zahnrad abwälzt - eine vergleichsweise langsame Rotation des außenverzahnten Zahnrads (relativ zu dem innenverzahnten Zahnrad) überlagert. Falls bei einer derartigen Anordnung das außenverzahnte Zahnrad nur geringfügig weniger Zähne besitzt als das hiermit kämmende innenverzahnte Zahnrad (z.B. Unterschied von 1 bis 5 Zähnen), lassen sich hierdurch vorteilhaft hohe Übersetzungen darstellen (z.B. 60 bis 300).In order to adjust the camshaft relative to the drive wheel, comparatively high torques must be applied. For this function can be met by a small-sized, fast-running electric motor, the control gear must cause a high ratio of the speed of the electric motor to slow (based on a fixed drive wheel). For this purpose, the actuating gear having an internally toothed gear and an externally toothed gear meshing therewith, wherein the internally toothed gear is rotatable about said central axis and the externally toothed gear is eccentric with respect to the central axis and is driven in this eccentric arrangement to a circular movement about the central axis , The said circular movement is here - as the externally toothed gear rolls on the internally toothed gear - a relatively slow rotation of the externally toothed gear (relative to the internally toothed gear) superimposed. With such an arrangement, if the externally toothed gear has only slightly fewer teeth than the internally toothed gear meshing therewith (e.g., 1 to 5 teeth difference), advantageously high ratios can be achieved (e.g., 60 to 300).
Ein Problem bei einem derartigen Stellgetriebe besteht jedoch darin, dass das mit dem innenverzahnten Zahnrad kämmende außenverzahnte Zahnrad bezüglich der Zentralachse der Verstellvorrichtung exzentrisch angeordnet ist. Somit lässt sich die Kreisbewegung des außenverzahnten Zahnrads nicht ohne weiteres auf ein Eingangselement oder Ausgangselement des Stellgetriebes (z.B. auf die Nockenwelle) übertragen, die - wie vorstehend erläutert - allesamt koaxial zu der Zentralachse angeordnet sein sollen.A problem with such a control gear is, however, that the meshing with the internal gear external gear is arranged eccentrically with respect to the central axis of the adjusting device. Thus, the circular motion of the externally toothed gear can not readily be applied to an input element or output element of the adjusting gear (eg on the camshaft) transmitted, which - as explained above - all should be arranged coaxially to the central axis.
Eine Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, eine Nockenwellen-Verstellvorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, bei der das Stellgetriebe bei kompaktem Aufbau und hohem Wirkungsgrad eine hohe Übersetzung ins Langsame bewirkt.An object of the invention is to provide a camshaft adjusting device of the type mentioned, in which the actuating mechanism causes a high gear ratio with a compact design and high efficiency in the slow.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch eine Verstellvorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst, und insbesondere dadurch, dass das außenverzahnte Zahnrad an wenigstens zwei Exzenterwellen exzentrisch gelagert ist, wobei jede Exzenterwelle zu einer Drehbewegung um eine jeweilige Exzenterachse antreibbar ist, wobei die Exzenterachsen bezüglich der Zentralachse exzentrisch angeordnet und um die Zentralachse drehbar sind.This object is achieved by an adjusting device with the features of claim 1, and in particular in that the externally toothed gear is eccentrically mounted on at least two eccentric shafts, each eccentric shaft is drivable for rotational movement about a respective eccentric axis, wherein the eccentric axes eccentric with respect to the central axis arranged and rotatable about the central axis.
Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Verstellvorrichtung sind also wenigstens zwei Exzenterachsen vorgesehen, die bezüglich der genanten Zentralachse der Verstellvorrichtung außermittig angeordnet und insbesondere parallel zueinander angeordnet sind. Die Anordnung der in fester Relativlage zueinander stehenden Exzenterachsen kann um die Zentralachse gedreht werden, d.h. die Anordnung aus wenigstens zwei Exzenterachsen ist koaxial zu dem Antriebsrad, dem Elektromotor und der Nockenwelle drehbar, wobei die jeweilige Lage der Exzenterachsen beispielsweise durch eine gemeinsame Trägereinrichtung definiert ist.In the adjusting device according to the invention therefore at least two eccentric axes are provided, which are arranged eccentrically with respect to the genanten central axis of the adjusting device and in particular are arranged parallel to each other. The arrangement of the fixed relative to each other eccentric axes can be rotated about the central axis, i. the arrangement of at least two eccentric axes is rotatable coaxially to the drive wheel, the electric motor and the camshaft, wherein the respective position of the eccentric axes is defined for example by a common carrier device.
Jeder Exzenterachse ist eine jeweilige Exzenterwelle zugeordnet. Jede Exzenterwelle umfasst einen Exzenterabschnitt (d.h. einen Nocken) und ist zu einer Drehbewegung um die jeweilige Exzenterachse antreibbar. Das genannte außenverzahnte Zahnrad, welches mit dem genannten innenverzahnten Zahnrad in Eingriff steht, ist an den wenigstens zwei Exzenterwellen gelagert, so dass durch die Drehbewegung der Exzenterwellen um die jeweilige Exzenterachse das außenverzahnte Zahnrad zu der genannten (exzentrischen) Kreisbewegung um die Zentralachse angetrieben werden kann.Each eccentric axis is assigned a respective eccentric shaft. Each eccentric shaft includes an eccentric portion (ie, a cam) and is drivable for rotational movement about the respective eccentric axis. Said external gear, which with said internal toothed Gear is engaged, is mounted on the at least two eccentric shafts, so that by the rotational movement of the eccentric shafts about the respective eccentric axis, the externally toothed gear can be driven to said (eccentric) circular motion about the central axis.
Somit kann die erforderliche Exzentrizität des außenverzahnten Zahnrads durch den jeweiligen Exzenterabschnitt der Exzenterwellen dargestellt werden, wobei die den Exzenterwellen zugeordneten Exzenterachsen gemeinsam eine zu der Zentralachse koaxiale Drehbewegung ausführen können. Die Exzenterwellen, die um die exzentrisch angeordneten Exzenterachsen drehbar sind, ermöglichen also, dass die exzentrische Kreisbewegung (mit überlagerter Rotation) des außenverzahnten Zahnrads auf eine Drehbewegung um die Zentralachse der Verstellvorrichtung zurückgeführt werden kann, nämlich in Form einer Rotation der genannten Exzenterachsen um die Zentralachse. Daher können die beiden Eingänge und der Ausgang des Stellgetriebes allesamt koaxial zu der Zentralachse angeordnet sein.Thus, the required eccentricity of the externally toothed gear can be represented by the respective eccentric portion of the eccentric shafts, wherein the eccentric shafts associated with the eccentric shafts can jointly perform a rotational movement coaxial with the central axis. The eccentric shafts, which are rotatable about the eccentrically arranged eccentric axes, thus make it possible for the eccentric circular movement (with superimposed rotation) of the externally toothed toothed wheel to be attributed to a rotational movement about the central axis of the adjusting device, namely in the form of a rotation of said eccentric axes about the central axis , Therefore, the two inputs and the output of the adjusting gear can all be arranged coaxially to the central axis.
Im Ergebnis kann durch die Verwendung eines koaxialen innenverzahnten Zahnrades und eines hiermit kämmenden, exzentrischen außenverzahnten Zahnrades bei geringem Bauraum ein Stellgetriebe mit einer hohen Übersetzung ins Langsame realisiert werden, wobei durch die koaxiale Ausführung der beiden Eingangselemente und des Ausgangselements des Stellgetriebes ein einfacher Aufbau möglich ist und ein hoher Wirkungsgrad erreicht werden kann.As a result, by means of the use of a coaxial internal gear and a meshing, eccentric external gear with a small space a control gear with a high gear ratio can be realized slowly, with a simple structure is possible by the coaxial design of the two input elements and the output element of the actuating gear and high efficiency can be achieved.
Vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung sind nachfolgend erläutert und in den abhängigen Ansprüchen genannt.Advantageous embodiments of the invention are explained below and referred to in the dependent claims.
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist das außenverzahnte Zahnrad mittels eines jeweiligen Wälzlagers an den Exzenterwellen gelagert. Hierdurch können die exzentrische Kreisbewegung des außenverzahnten Zahnrades und die hierdurch bewirkte Drehmomentübertragung mit einem besonders guten Wirkungsgrad dargestellt werden. Nach einer weiteren Ausführungsform kann das außenverzahnte Zahnrad mittels eines jeweiligen Gleitlagers an den Exzenter wellen gelagert werden.According to a preferred embodiment, the externally toothed gear is mounted by means of a respective rolling bearing on the eccentric shafts. As a result, the eccentric circular movement of the externally toothed gear and the torque transmission caused thereby can be represented with a particularly good efficiency. According to a further embodiment, the externally toothed gear can be supported by means of a respective sliding bearing on the eccentric shafts.
Ferner ist es bevorzugt, wenn jede Exzenterwelle an einem jeweiligen Lagerzapfen - dem so genannten Exzenterzapfen - drehbar gelagert ist, wobei die Exzenterzapfen die genannten Exzenterachsen definieren und an einer gemeinsamen Trägereinrichtung befestigt sind. Hierdurch ist eine besonders einfache Lagerung der drehbar antreibbaren Exzenterwellen möglich. Bei dieser Ausführungsform sind die Exzenterwellen insbesondere als Hohlwellen ausgeführt, die innenseitig an den Exzenterzapfen gelagert sind. Alternativ können die Exzenterwellen jedoch beispielsweise unmittelbar zapfenartig in eine gemeinsame Trägereinrichtung eingreifen und an diesen außenseitig drehbar gelagert sein.Furthermore, it is preferred if each eccentric shaft is rotatably mounted on a respective bearing journal - the so-called eccentric pin -, wherein the eccentric pins define said eccentric axes and are fastened to a common carrier device. As a result, a particularly simple mounting of the rotatably driven eccentric shafts is possible. In this embodiment, the eccentric shafts are designed in particular as hollow shafts, which are mounted on the inside of the eccentric pin. Alternatively, however, the eccentric shafts may, for example, engage directly in the manner of a pin in a common carrier device and be rotatably mounted on the latter on the outside.
Hierbei ist es ferner bevorzugt, wenn die Exzenterwellen wiederum mittels eines jeweiligen weiteren Wälzlagers an den Exzenterzapfen gelagert sind. Hierdurch wird der Wirkungsgrad des Stellgetriebes noch weiter erhöht, da für die Bewegung des außenverzahnten Zahnrades somit durchgehend eine Wälzlagerung vorgesehen sein kann.In this case, it is further preferred if the eccentric shafts are in turn mounted on the eccentric pin by means of a respective further rolling bearing. As a result, the efficiency of the adjusting gear is further increased, since thus for the movement of the externally toothed gear a rolling bearing can be provided.
Gemäß einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist das innenverzahnte Zahnrad mit dem Antriebsrad drehfest verbunden und die Anordnung der mehreren Exzenterachsen (insbesondere die Anordnung der mehreren Exzenterzapfen) ist mit der Nockenwelle drehfest verbunden. Mit anderen Worten bildet in diesem Fall das innenverzahnte Zahnrad einen Eingang und die Anordnung der mehreren Exzenterachsen bildet den Ausgang des Stellgetriebes. Hierdurch lässt sich ein besonders kompakter Aufbau des Stellgetriebes realisieren, wobei insbesondere auch eine einteilige Ausbildung des innenverzahnten Zahnrads mit dem Antriebsrad möglich ist. Grundsätzlich ist jedoch auch eine umgekehrte Anordnung möglich.According to a further preferred embodiment, the internally toothed gear is rotatably connected to the drive wheel and the arrangement of the plurality of eccentric axes (in particular the arrangement of the plurality of eccentric pins) is rotatably connected to the camshaft. In other words, in this case, the internal gear forms a Input and the arrangement of the multiple eccentric axes forms the output of the actuating gear. This makes it possible to realize a particularly compact design of the adjusting gear, wherein in particular a one-piece design of the internally toothed gear with the drive wheel is possible. In principle, however, a reverse arrangement is possible.
Weiterhin ist es bevorzugt, wenn die genannten Exzenterwellen mittels des Elektromotors zu einer Drehbewegung um die jeweilige Exzenterachse antreibbar sind. Mit anderen Worten sind in diesem Fall die das außenverzahnte Zahnrad tragenden Exzenterwellen einem Eingang des Stellgetriebes zugeordnet.Furthermore, it is preferred if said eccentric shafts are drivable by means of the electric motor to a rotational movement about the respective eccentric axis. In other words, in this case the eccentric shafts carrying the externally toothed gear are assigned to an input of the adjusting gear.
Vorzugsweise sind die Exzenterwellen zu einer zueinander synchronen Drehbewegung um die jeweilige Exzenterachse antreibbar, um die erwünschte Kreisbewegung des außenverzahnten Zahnrades zu bewirken.Preferably, the eccentric shafts are drivable to a mutually synchronous rotational movement about the respective eccentric axis in order to effect the desired circular movement of the externally toothed gear.
Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist jede Exzenterwelle mit einem jeweiligen Kopplungszahnrad drehfest verbunden (insbesondere einteilig ausgebildet). In diesem Fall kann der Elektromotor ein Motorritzel antreiben, das koaxial zu der Zentralachse der Verstellvorrichtung angeordnet ist und mit den Kopplungszahnrädern direkt oder über wenigstens ein gemeinsames Zwischenzahnrad kämmt. Hierdurch kann also zusätzlich zu dem Synchronantrieb die exzentrische Lagerung der Exzenterwellen auf einen zu der Zentralachse koaxialen Antrieb zurückgeführt werden.According to a preferred embodiment, each eccentric shaft with a respective coupling gear rotatably connected (in particular integrally formed). In this case, the electric motor can drive a motor pinion, which is arranged coaxially to the central axis of the adjusting device and meshes with the coupling gears directly or via at least one common intermediate gear. As a result, in addition to the synchronous drive, the eccentric bearing of the eccentric shafts can thus be attributed to a drive coaxial with the central axis.
Vorzugsweise sind die Kopplungszahnräder und das Zwischenzahnrad (falls vorhanden) in jeder Stellung des Stellgetriebes radial vollständig innerhalb der Verzahnung des außenverzahnten Zahnrads angeordnet.Preferably, the coupling gears and the intermediate gear (if present) in each position of the adjusting gear are arranged radially completely within the toothing of the externally toothed gear.
Mit anderen Worten sind die Kopplungszahnräder und gegebenenfalls das Zwischenzahnrad vollständig innerhalb eines gedachten zur Zentralachse konzentrischen Zylindermantels angeordnet, wobei sich der Zylindermantel in jeder Getriebestellung vollständig innerhalb der Verzahnung des außenverzahnten Zahnrads befindet, so dass sich die Zahnbreite des außenverzahnten Zahnrads und ebenso die Zahnbreite des innenverzahnten Zahnrades axial über die Kopplungszahnräder bzw. das Zwischenzahnrad fortsetzen kann. Die Kopplungszahnräder bzw. das Zwischenzahnrad können somit axial vollständig oder teilweise innerhalb des außenverzahnten Zahnrads und des innenverzahnten Zahnrades angeordnet sein. Hierdurch verkürzt sich die axiale Baulänge des Stellgetriebes.In other words, the coupling gears and possibly the intermediate gear are arranged completely within an imaginary to the central axis concentric cylinder jacket, wherein the cylinder shell is in each gear position completely within the teeth of the external gear, so that the tooth width of the external gear and also the tooth width of the internally toothed Gear can continue axially via the coupling gears and the intermediate gear. The coupling gears or the intermediate gear can thus be arranged axially completely or partially within the externally toothed gear and the internally toothed gear. This shortens the axial length of the adjusting gear.
Gemäß einer weiteren Ausführungsform sind zwei, drei oder vier Exzenterwellen vorgesehen, die um eine jeweilige Exzenterachse drehbar antreibbar sind, um das außenverzahnte Zahnrad anzutreiben, wobei die Exzenterachsen vorzugsweise in einer gleichmäßigen Winkelteilung um die Zentralachse verteilt angeordnet sind.According to a further embodiment, two, three or four eccentric shafts are provided, which are rotatably driven about a respective eccentric axis to drive the externally toothed gear, wherein the eccentric axes are preferably distributed in a uniform angular pitch about the central axis.

Das Motorritzel 37 wird von dem Elektromotor 17 über eine Motorwelle 41 angetrieben (
Das Stellgetriebe 15 bildet ein Summiergetriebe, um mittels des Elektromotors 17 die Phasenlage der Nockenwelle 11 relativ zu dem Antriebsrad 13 variieren zu können. Hierbei bildet das dem Antriebsrad 13 zugeordnete innenverzahnte Zahnrad 19 einen ersten Eingang. Das dem Elektromotor 17 zugeordnete Motorritzel 37 bildet einen zweiten Eingang. Die die Exzenterzapfen 33 tragende und mit dem Nockenwellenflansch 24 fest verbundene Trägereinrichtung 23 bildet einen Ausgang des Stellgetriebes 15.The
Sofern die Drehzahl des Elektromotors 17 und somit des Motorritzels 37 auf die Drehzahl des Antriebsrads 13 eingestellt ist, dreht sich das Stellgetriebe 15 im Block um die Zentralachse A, und die Drehzahl der Nockenwelle 11 entspricht somit jener des Antriebsrads 13. Durch kurzzeitiges Schneller- oder Langsamerlaufen des Elektromotors 17 kann jedoch ein Verstellen der Phasenlage der Nockenwelle 11 bewirkt werden, wobei das von dem Elektromotor 17 aufzubringende Drehmoment gering ist. Bezogen auf ein festgehaltenes Antriebsrad 13 bewirkt eine Drehbewegung des Motorritzels 37 nämlich eine lediglich geringfügige Verdrehung der Nockenwelle 11, d.h. das Stellgetriebe 15 bewirkt eine starke Übersetzung ins Langsame. Dies ist im Wesentlichen darauf zurückzuführen, dass bei einer vollständigen Kreisbewegung des exzentrisch angeordneten außenverzahnten Zahnrads 25 um die Zentralachse A das außenverzahnte Zahnrad 25 an dem innenverzahnten Zahnrad 19 abwälzt. Aufgrund der geringen Zähnezahldifferenz zwischen den beiden Zahnrädern 19, 25 bewirkt eine vollständige Kreisbewegung des außenverzahnten Zahnrades 25 relativ zu dem innenverzahnten Zahnrad 19 nur eine geringe überlagerte Rotation des außenverzahnten Zahnrads 25, nämlich genau entsprechend der geringen Zähnezahldifferenz.If the rotational speed of the
Um das außenverzahnte Zahnrad 25 trotz seiner exzentrischen Anord-nung mittels des zu der Zentralachse A koaxial angeordneten Elektromotors 17 antreiben zu können, treibt das Motorritzel 37 über das Zwischenzahnrad 35 und die Kopplungszahnräder 34 die beiden Exzenterwellen 29 synchron zueinander zu einer jeweiligen Drehbewegung um die Exzenterachsen B an. Anhand von
Um die hierdurch bewirkte überlagerte Drehbewegung des außenverzahnten Zahnrads 25 relativ zu dem innenverzahnten Zahnrad 19 trotz der exzentrischen Anordnung des außenverzahnten Zahnrads 25 auf die koaxial zu der Zentralachse A angeordnete Nockenwelle 11 übertragen zu können, sitzen die der Drehbewegung des außenverzahnten Zahnrads 25 folgenden Exzenterwellen 29 auf den Exzenterzapfen 33, die über die Trägereinrichtung 23 mittels Schrauben 39 mit dem Nockenwellenflansch 24 und somit mit der Nockenwelle 11 fest verbunden sind.In spite of the eccentric arrangement of the externally
Somit ist es im Ergebnis möglich, die beiden Eingänge (Antriebsrad 13 mit innenverzahntem Zahnrad 19 und Motorwelle 41 mit Motorritzel 37) und den Ausgang (Exzenterzapfen 33 mit Nockenwelle 11) des Stellgetriebes 15 koaxial zu der Zentralachse A anzuordnen und gleichwohl für sämtliche drehbeweglichen Elemente des Stellgetriebes 15 eine Wälzlagerung zu ermöglichen. Die gezeigte Verstellvorrichtung zeichnet sich deshalb trotz hoher Untersetzungswirkung des Stellgetriebes 15 bei geringer Baugröße durch einen hohen Wirkungsgrad aus.Thus, it is possible as a result to arrange the two inputs (
