[Embodiment of the Invention] A description will be given with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an axial sectional view of the present invention, and FIG.
It is AB sectional drawing of. FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along line CD of FIG. After the cylindrical coil roller 4 is arranged equally by the retainer 5 around the rotary shaft 1 and parallel to the rotary shaft 1, the thin pipe 2 is assembled by elastically deforming the thin pipe 2 in the radial direction. Here, even after the above assembly, most of the elastic strain in the radial direction of the thin-walled pipe 2 remains. Next, the thick pipe 3 is pressed into the outside of the thin pipe 2 after the assembly. At this time, most of the elastic deformation of the cylindrical coil roller 4 results in a decrease in the coil center diameter, that is, an increase in the number of turns. One of the flanges 6 fixed to both ends of the thin pipe 2 is fixed after the assembling. Next, the operation will be described. In FIG. 1, when the rotary shaft 1 is rotated by an electric motor or the like in a state where either the thin pipe 2 or the thick pipe 3 is fixed, one of the unfixed pipes is decelerated and rotates. The speed reduction ratio at this time is the ratio of the difference between the inner circumference of the thick pipe 3 and the outer circumference of the thin pipe 2 and the outer circumference of the thin pipe 2. Next, radial elastic deformation of the thin pipe 2 will be described. It is highly desirable that the end of the thin-walled pipe 2 is not deformed because it is either fixed or takes out the output.
Then, the elastic deformation of the thin pipe 2 in the radial direction is not uniform along the axial direction, but gradually starts to deform from a position away from the end. Therefore, the rotating shaft 1 and the thin pipe 2
The center diameter of the coil of the cylindrical coil roller 4 incorporated between them is not uniform along the axial direction, that is, the center axis of the cylindrical coil roller 4 is not straight, but in the case of the coil roller, the center axis is curved. Even then, smooth rotation is possible. Next, since the elastic deformation in the radial direction is suppressed at both ends of the thin pipe 2, the pressing force of the cylindrical coil roller 4 increases as approaching the both ends. As a result, the axial position of the cylindrical coil roller 4 is automatically corrected near the center of the thin pipe 2. At both ends of the cylindrical coil roller 4, a tapered seat 7 is incorporated to smooth the rolling. Have been. The gist of the present invention is as described above.
(1) The elastic deformation of the cylindrical coil roller 4 is an elastic deformation in which the number of windings increases, and the reaction force of this elastic deformation is used as a source of all the pressing forces. (2) Even if the elastic deformation of the cylindrical coil roller 4 is not uniform along the axial direction, that is, even if the center axis of the coil is a curved line, smooth rolling is possible. (3) The axial position of the cylindrical coil roller 4 is automatically corrected so that the pressing force decreases.
