S S er i e s By pursuing strength and stiffness, a new tooth profile was invented. The "S" tooth doubled the torque, life and stiffness. S H F To minimize the space, for a total cost reduction the axial length has been reduced to about one half. Unit that allows easy mounting was also available at the same time. SHG The SHG achieved a % increase in torque capacity. Life was increased from 7,000 hrs to,000 hrs. : The Ratio :1 was added for higher output speeds. Tooth Profiles The harmonic drive component sets and housed units presented in this catalog incorporate the S gear tooth profile. This patented tooth profile provides a significant improvement in gear operating characteristics and performance. The new S tooth profile significantly increases the region of tooth engagement. For the traditional tooth profile 15% of the total number of teeth are in contact, while for the new profile up to % of the teeth are in contact. The increased number of teeth in engagement results in a % increase in torsional stiffness in the low & mid torque ranges. The new tooth profile also features an enlarged tooth root radius, which results in a higher allowable stress and a corresponding increase in torque capacity. Furthermore, the enlarged region of tooth engagement leads to a more even loading of the Wave Generator bearing, resulting in more than double the life expectancy for the gear. Initial Engagement Full Engagement 4
5 PRINCIPLE AND STRUCTURE System Components The FLEXSPLINE is a non-rigid, thin cylindrical steel cup with external teeth on a slightly smaller pitch diameter than the Circular Spline. It fits over and is held in an elliptical shape by the Wave Generator. Flexspline Wave Generator The WAVE GENERATOR is a thin raced ball bearing fitted onto an elliptical plug serving as a high efficiency torque converter. The CIRCULAR SPLINE is a rigid ring with internal teeth, engaging the teeth of the Flexspline across the major axis of the Wave Generator. Circular Spline 0 º 90º 3º Circular Spline Wave Generator Flexspline The Flexspline is elliptically shaped by The Wave Generator and engaged with the Circular Spline at the major elliptical axis. The teeth completely disengage on the minor axis. When the Circular Spline is fixed and the Wave generator rotates clockwise, the Flexspline is elastically deformed and rotates counterclockwise relative to the Circular Spline. For each 3 degrees clockwise movement of the Wave Generator,the Flexspline moves counterclockwise by two teeth relative to the Circular Spline. Circular Spline Circular Spline Input Input Cross Roller Bearing Wave Generator Flexspline Cross Roller Bearing Wave Generator Flexspline Hollow Shaft Type (2UH) The SHF harmonic drive housed unit offers the design engineer convenience and simplicity. The gears are contained within a compact housing, where the output flange is supported by a large diameter cross roller bearing. This provides exceptional moment stiffness with high radial and axial load capacity. Input Shaft Type (2UJ) The SHF-2UJ housed units have a different design for the input. This series is driven via a solid shaft. These units, like the SHF-2UH models, integrate high capacity cross roller output bearing to provide a high permissible tilting moment as well as high tilting stiffness. Simplicity Unit Type (Option not shown) Flat type (2 SO) and Hollow Shaft type (2 SH) have been simplified by eliminating Input and Output Flanges to achieve design flexibility and cost reduction.

The particularly Simplicity units future SHF-2SO Component Sets combined with integral cross roller bearing, Circular Spline and Flexspline. It is important to note that the motor can be assembling from both sides of the unit. Circular Spline Ring Flexspline Ring Cross Roller Bearing Circular Spline Oil Seal Deletion The Removable of the rotary shaft seal of SHF-2UH The friction of the rotary shaft seals at the input side can result in an increased temperature of the SHF-2UH unit during operation. This application example (Fig.4) shows the removal of the (fast running) rotary shaft seals at the input side. The removal of one or both rotary shaft seals at the input element should only be carried out if other measures have been undertaken to prevent the leakage of grease or oil, or if a leakage can be ruled out due to the installation position.

12 TECHNICAL TERMS Definition of Ratings Rated Torque (Tr) Rated torque indicates allowable continuous load torque at 00 rpm input speed. Limit for Repeated Peak Torque (refer to figure 1) During acceleration a deceleration the harmonic drive gear experiences a peak torque as a result of the moment of inertia of the output load. Limit for Average Torque In cases where load torque and input speed vary, it is necessary to calculate an average value of load torque. The table indicates the limit for average torque. The average torque calculated must not exceed this limit. Limit for Momentary Peak Torque (refer to figure 1) Harmonic drive gearing may be subjected to momentary peak torques in the event of a collision or emergency stop. The magnitude and frequency of occurrence of such peak torques must be kept to a minimum and they should, under no circumstance, occur during normal operating cycle. The allowable number of occurrences of the momentary peak torque may be calculated by using equation 1 on page 12. Also see section strength and life. Figure 1 Abnormal Impact Torque Strength and Life The non-rigid Flexspline is subjected to repeated deflections, and its strength determines the torque capacity of the harmonic drive gear. The values given for Rated Torque at Rated Speed and for the allowable Repeated Peak Torque are based on an infinite fatigue life for the Flexspline. The torque that occurs during a collision must be below the momentary peak torque (impact torque). The maximum number of occurrences is given by the equation below. [Equation 1] N = 1.0 X 4 n: Input speed before collision 2 X n X t t: Time interval during collision Please note: If this number is exceeded, the Flexspline may experience a fatigue failure. Ratcheting phenomenon When excessive torque is applied while the harmonic drive gear is in motion, the teeth between the Circular Spline and Flexspline may not engage properly. This phenomenon is called ratcheting and the torque at which this occurs is called ratcheting torque. Ratcheting may cause the Flexspline to become non-concentric with the Circular Spline. (See figure 1 & 2 on page 12) Operating in this condition may result in shortened life and a Flexspline fatigue failure. Figure 2 Start Routine Load Torque Number of Rotations of Wave Generator Stop Speed Cycle Start Time Load Torque Time Repeated Peak Torque Momentary Peak Torque Circular Spline Flexspline This condition is called dedoidal. Maximum Input Speed, Limit for average input speed Do not exceed the allowable rating. Moment of Inertia The rating indicates the moment of inertia reflected to the wave generator (gear input). Note! When ratcheting occurs, the teeth mesh abnormally as shown above. Vibration and Flexspline damage may occur. Once ratcheting occurs, the teeth wear excessively and the ratcheting torque may be lowered. 12

14 SELECTION PROCEDURE Size Selection Generally, the operating conditions consist of fluctuating torques and output speeds. Also, an unexpected impact output torque must be considered. The proper size can be determined by converting fluctuating load torque into average load torque and equivalent load torque. This procedure involves selecting the size based on load torque for component sets. This procedure does not consider the life of the output bearing for housed units. Determining the life of the output bearing for various axial, radial, and moment loads is outlined on page 31. Flow Chart for selecting a size Please use the flowchart shown below for selecting a size. Operating conditions must not exceed the performance ratings as described on page 12.

Oil Level for Horizontal Usage Oil Level Oil Level of Vertical Usage Table 12 mm Size B Vertical Installation: If the input shaft is on top, lube holes are provided on the boss of the Flexspline to facilitate the flow of oil inside the Flexspline cup. The lube holes serve as breathers if the component set is used with input down. When the harmonic drive gear is to be used vertically with the Wave Generator placed at the bottom, special consideration must be given. If the Wave Generator assembly is completely submerged in oil, the heat generation caused by churning oil will be substantial and a loss of efficiency will result. It is recommended that the oil level be maintained in such a way that approximately one half of the Wave Generator Bearing is submerged.oil level should be maintained at the level B shown. To ensure a sufficient amount of lubricant it may be necessary to extend the bottom area of the housing or to provide an external oil reservoir. A forced lubrication system may also be considered.

22 LUBRICATION Example of Oil Channeling to the Flexspline Interface. When oil is used as lubrication, the flange connected to the Flexspline must have a passage for oil to flow through. This allows for proper oil circulation. (Refer to Figure 4) Oil Quantity Table 13 mm Size Amount Oil Change The first oil change should be performed after hours of operation. The need to perform subsequent oil changes will depend on operating conditions, but should take place at intervals of approximately 0 running hours. Other notes: Avoid mixing different kinds of oil. Harmonic drive gearing should be in an individual case when installed. Special Lubricants for Extreme Temperatures In extreme temperature environments (Exceptions are shown on page 18), please consider the following lubricant temperature range and condition, and select type of lubricant.

Possible temperature range indicates temperature of individual lubricant. It will cause restriction on operating condition (Rated torque, In-put and Out-put speed and operating cycle etc.,). If ambient temperature is lowest or highest temperature, it is necessary to change the materials, please contact us. 3. The temperature range of the grease can be extended as indicated in the possible temperature range shown. At the low end of this range the efficiency will be low due to an increase in viscosity of the lubricant. At the high end of this range the lubricant life will be low due to an increased deterioration rate from the high temperature. 22

Sealing structure A seal structure is needed to maintain the high durability of harmonic drive gearing and prevent grease leakage. Key Points to Verify Rotating parts should have an oil seal (with spring), surface should be smooth (no scratches) Mating flanges should have an O Ring, seal adhesive Screws should have a thread lock (Loctite 242 recommended) or seal adhesive. (note) If you use Harmonic grease 4BNo.2, strict sealing is required. Harmonic Drive LLC

In cases where a larger hole is required, use the Wave Generator without the Oldham coupling. The maximum diameter of the hole should be considered to prevent deformation of the Wave Generator plug by load torque. The dimension is shown in table 16 include the dimension of depth of keyway. Maximum Diameter or Hole without Coupling Table 16 Unit: mm Size Maximum Diameter øv Min. Thickness of Plug H Direction for Thrust Force of Wave Generator Axial Force of Wave Generator When a harmonic drive gear is used to accelerate a load, the deflection of the Flexspline leads to an axial force acting on the Wave Generator. This axial force, which acts in the direction of the closed end of the Flexspline, must be supported by the bearings of the input shaft (motor shaft). When a harmonic drive gear is used to decelerate a load, an axial force acts to push the Wave Generator out of the Flexspline cup. Maximum axial force of the Wave Generator can be calculated by the equation shown below. The axial force may vary depending on its operating condition. The value of axial force tends to be a larger number when using high torque, extreme low speed and constant operation. The force is calculated (approximately) by the equation. In all cases, the Wave Generator must be axially (in both directions), as well as torsionally, fixed to the input shaft.

26 INSTALLATION PROCEDURE Installation of the Flexspline The load is normally attached to the Flexspline using a bolt or screw. For high load torques dowel pins can be used in addition to bolts or screws. The strength of the selected bolt, clamp torque, surface condition of bolt and thread, and coefficient of friction on the contact surface are important factors to consider. To determine transmission torque of the fastened part consider conditions indicated above. Please fasten bolts with the proper torque for each size as indicated. Please use the table shown below to decide if dowel pins are needed. 1. If the load torque is less than momentary peak torque shown on tables 1 and 2 then only bolts are needed. 2. If the load torque is expected to reach momentary peak torque, both bolts and pins should be used. Use values on the list as a reference. Tables 19, 21 pertain to the SHF series. Tables, 22 pertain to the SHG series.

27 ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE Assembly Order for Basic Three Elements The recommended sequences of assembly are illustrated below. Only after the Circular Spline and Flexspline are assembled in equipment is the Wave Generator assembled. If assembly is performed using a different method, Dedoidal assembly or teeth breakage may occur. It is essential that teeth of the Flexspline and Circular Spline mesh symmetrically for proper function. An eccentric tooth mesh (Dedoidal), will result in noise and vibration and may lead to early failure of the gear. When flexspline and wave generator are assembled, open part of flexspline will expand at major axis. Wave Generator Wave Generator Circular Spline Flexspline Note: 1. Avoid assembling with excessive force on Wave Generator bearing. Insert Wave Generator as you rotate it. 2. If the Wave Generator does not have an Oldham coupling, special consideration must be given to ensure that concentricity and inclination are within the specified limits. ( see page 12.) Assembly procedure Wave Generator 1. Avoid overloading the Wave Generator bearing during installation, rotate the Wave Generator as you easily install. 2. Since the Wave Generator does not have an Oldham coupling, make sure that the position is within the recommended tolerance shown on page Installation bolts on Wave Generator and installation bolt on Flexspline should not interfere each other. Circular Spline 1. Be sure flatness and skewness are minimized. 2. Make sure there are no burrs or foreign substances. 3. Make sure there is enough room to have the minimum clearance in the housing. 4. Make sure that the harmonic drive gear rotates when Circular Spline is installed in the housing. 5. When a bolt is inserted into a bolt hole, make sure that the bolt hole is located properly. 7. Bolts should not be tightened at the same time. Apply half of the recommended torque to tighten bolts, and then tighten bolts at the recommended torque. The order of tightening bolts should be done diagonally. Avoid using pins to secure the Circular Spline if possible. Flexspline 1. Be sure flatness and skewness are minimized. 2. Make sure there are no burrs or foreign substances. 3.

55 POSITIONING ACCURACY Positioning Accuracy The positioning accuracy of the gear represents a linearity error between the input and output angle. The position error is the difference between theoretical and actual output rotation angle. The positioning accuracy is measured for one complete output revolution using a high resolution measurement system. The measurements are carried out without reversing direction. The positioning accuracy is defined as the difference between the maximum positive and maximum negative deviation from the theoretical position. θer...positional Accuracy θ 1...Input Angle θ 2...Actual Output Angle R...Gear Ratio θer = θ 2 - θ 1 R Typical Positional Accuracy Curve øer Position Accuracy x -4 rad (arc-min) Table 42 Gear Ratio and larger standard special standard special (2) (1.5) (1.5) (1.5) (1.5) (1) (1) (1) (1.5) (1.5) (1) (1) (1) (1) (1) (1) (0.5) (0.5) (0.5) (0.5) Harmonic Drive LLC
56 TORSIONAL STIFFNESS Torsional Stiffness Torsional Angle A Figure Torsional stiffness is determined by applying a load to the output of the harmonic drive gear, with the input rotationally locked. The angular rotation is measured as the load is increased. The typical curve (shown in the figure 11) is non-linear. The stiffness is determined the slope of this curve. For simplicity, the curve is approximated by 3 straight lines having stiffness of K 1, K 2, and K 3. Hysteresis B T 0 0 +T0 B' Torque Stiffness K 1 applies for output torque of 0 to T 1. Stiffness K 3 applies for output torque greater than T 2. Stiffness K 2 applies for output torque between T 1 and T 2. Typical stiffness values are shown in tables 43, 44 and 45.

However, an Oldham coupling is included as standard with all gearing components and gearheads. The Oldham coupling compensates for motor shaft concentricity errors. Unfortunately, the Oldham coupling does add a small amount of backlash to the system. Backlash values are shown in table 44. This amount of backlash is usually negligible. Component sets and gearheads can be supplied without an Oldham coupling. This is called a Direct Drive version.
