In general, when two gears forming a gear pair are meshed, the length of the gap between the teeth (the width of the tooth groove) measured on the pitch circle of the driven gear and the pitch circle of the driving gear. The difference from the measured tooth thickness (tooth thickness) is a finitely small value and is called a difference. Therefore, from the perspective of the drive side, this backlash is just a play.
In a control drive unit that requires precision, this backlash makes it difficult to control with high precision. Furthermore, when controlling at high speed, vibration and noise are generated due to this backlash. Particularly when the control drive section of an industrial robot has a gear pair, backlash causes a bad effect on the control accuracy of the tip of the wrist, and generates vibration and noise during high-speed control.

According to the deceleration drive mechanism having the gear pair of the present invention having the above-described configuration, first, the two drive-side toothed pulleys provided on the drive shaft of the drive device are rotatably released from the drive shaft. state and manually apply reverse rotation. As a result, the two pulleys on the driven side are rotated via each toothed belt, giving rotation to the first and second pinions, and the pinion teeth are brought into contact with the tooth surfaces of the large gear on the other side. They are engaged to perform the first step of debunking. next,
In this state, the two pulleys on the drive side are both securely fixed to the drive shaft of the drive device by the fixing means, and at the same time, both are fixed so that they cannot rotate relative to each other. Next, when the drive shaft of the drive device is displaced in a direction away from the axis of the large gear, tension is applied to both toothed belts. At this time, since the pitch circle diameter of the driven side toothed pulley is larger than the pitch circle diameter of the drive side toothed pulley, when the first and second pinions are engaged with the large gear, each belt is There is a difference in tension between the belt part on the return side and the belt part on the return side. This difference in tension between the belts applies a preload to the first and second pinions via the driven pulleys at their meshing surfaces with the large gear. Therefore, the deceleration drive mechanism having a pair of gears is always in a state in which backlash is removed under preload, and therefore, reliable transmission from the drive system to the driven system by the gears is possible.

Referring to FIG. 2, the principle of eliminating backlash in a pair of gears using the device mechanism shown in FIG. 1 will be described. The first driving side toothed pulley 14, the first toothed belt 18, and the first driven side toothed pulley 2
2, the first pinion 26 is rotated by an appropriate amount in the direction of the arrow C1 around the rotational axis 32, and the side surface F1 of its teeth is brought into contact with the side surface F3 of the teeth of the large gear 30. While holding the first pinion 26 so as not to rotate in the reverse direction and maintaining the state of contact between the side surfaces F1 and F3 of the teeth, the second pinion 28 is moved between the second drive-side toothed pulley 14 and the second toothed belt 20. and the second driven toothed pulley 24 around the rotation axis 34 in the direction of arrow C2. Then, the side surface F2 of the tooth of the second pinion 28 comes into contact with the side surface F4 of another tooth of the large gear 30. In this way, the large gear 30
The first and second drive-side toothed pulleys 14 and 16 are connected to the drive shaft 12 of the servo motor 10 by means described below in order to maintain the state in which the separate teeth of the two pinion gears 26 and 28 are in contact with each other. The servo motor 10 is fixed by an appropriate fixing means, and the servo motor 10 is moved slightly in a direction away from the two rotation axes 32 and 34 so as to apply tension to the two toothed belts 18 and 20. to be fixed. The direction of this movement is preferably in the direction of the perpendicular bisector of the line segment connecting the two rotational axes 32, 34. When the servo motor 10 is rotated in the direction in which the first pinion 26 rotates in the direction of the arrow C1 in the deceleration drive mechanism set in this way, the first pinion 26 and the large gear 30 come into contact with each other via the side surfaces F1 and F3. It rotates in the directions of arrows C1 and C3 while maintaining the contact state. At this time, the second pinion 28 rotates in the direction opposite to the arrow C2, but at the initial setting stage, the tooth side face F2 of the second pinion 28 and the large gear 30
Since it is in contact with the side surface F4 of the other tooth, the contact state is always maintained and the direction opposite to the arrow C2 and C
Rotates in 3 directions. When the drive shaft 12 of the servo motor 10 is rotated in the opposite direction, the second pinion 28 rotates in the direction of arrow C2, and the large gear 30 and first pinion 26 rotate in the opposite directions of arrows C3 and C1, respectively. However, as above, side faces F2 and F4,
F3 and F1 rotate while always maintaining a state of contact. Therefore, no matter which direction the drive shaft 12 of the servo motor 10 is rotated, backlash is completely eliminated.

20 (Fig. 1) are stretched and connected. Since the first drive-side toothed pulley 14 and the second drive-side toothed pulley 16 in the temporarily fixed state are only loosely fastened via the fixing threaded rod 46, the tapered recess 41 and the truncated conical portion 42 exerts only a small frictional force. Therefore, the two pulleys 14, 16 can be easily rotated in opposite directions. When the two drive-side toothed pulleys 14 and 16 are thus rotated in opposite directions,
The first and second pinions 2
6 and 28 are shown in FIG. 2 as C1 and C in mutually opposite directions.
The large gear 30 is rotated in two directions, and as described above, the side faces F1 and F3 and the side faces F2 and F4 of the large gear 30 come into contact with each other, thereby eliminating backlash.
These first and second pinions 26 and 28 and the large gear 3
By sufficiently tightening the fixing threaded rod 46 while maintaining the abutting and meshing state between the truncated conical part 42 and the tapered recess 4, the second drive-side toothed pulley 16
1 due to strong friction with the first drive side toothed pulley 14.
After that, the first and second pulleys 14, 16
are integral and can only rotate in the same direction. More preferably, two toothed belts 18, 20
(Fig. 1), the servo is moved away from the two pinion gears 26, 28 on the perpendicular bisector of the line connecting the two rotational axes 32, 34 (Fig. 1). It is preferable to move the motor 10 slightly in parallel and fix it by suitable fixing means.

[Claims] 1. Two different teeth of one large gear mesh with first and second pinions having the same circular pitch to form two gear pairs in which the rotation axes of each gear are parallel to each other. and fixing first and second driven side toothed pulleys having the same predetermined pitch diameter on the rotating shafts of the first and second pinions, respectively, After applying a desired amount of rotational displacement relative to each other to two drive-side toothed pulleys having the same pitch diameter in the first and second positions at two positions, both can be relatively fixed by a fixing means. The toothed pulleys on the driving side and the driven side are connected via two toothed belts to form two transmission pairs from one drive source, and the toothed pulley on the driven side The predetermined pitch circle diameter is set to be larger than the predetermined pitch circle diameter of the drive-side toothed pulley, and the relative adjustment rotational displacement given between the first and second drive-side toothed pulleys and the drive The first and second pinions and the large gear are always maintained in a meshed state via the toothed belt by adjusting the belt tension and moving the axis of the shaft away from the rotational axis of the large gear. A reduction drive mechanism having a pair of gears characterized by eliminating the backlash of the pair. 2. The large gear is a drive mechanism that is provided on the base of the industrial robot and directly connected to the body, and that rotates the body in both forward and reverse directions by the rotational driving force of the drive motor forming the drive device. A deceleration drive mechanism having the gear pair according to scope 1.
