Title:
ROTATION CONVERTER
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS601455
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PURPOSE:To enable a precise conversion and transmission of a minute angular change, by coaxially disposing three cylinders having, respectively, a slit in parallel with the axis, a slit at an angle of theta1 with the axis, and a slit at an angle of theta2 with the axis, and passing an elongated bar, or a pin, through all of the slits. CONSTITUTION:A first and second cylinders 1, 2 having, respectively, a slit 20, 21 slanted at an angle of theta1, theta2 with the axis 30 and a third cylinder 3 having a slit 22 in parallel with the axis 30 are coaxially disposed, and a pin 10 is passed through the slits 20, 21, and 22 in common. Then, if the cylinder 1 is turned about the axis by an angle of alpha with reference to the cylinder 3, the cylinder 2 is thereby turned by an angle beta=alpha.tantheta1/tantheta2 with reference to the cylinder 3. Thus, a minute angular change can be precisely converted and transmitted.
