Principle of Operation
The RV-C is a 2-stage reduction gear.

- An input gear engages with and rotates a center gear which then engages and rotates
spur gears that are coupled to crankshafts. Several overall gear ratios can be provided
by selecting various first stage ratios.

- Crankshafts driven by the spur gears cause an eccentric motion of two epicyclic gears
called RV gears that are offset 180 degrees from one another to provide a balanced load. - The eccentric motion of the RV gears causes engagement of the cycloidal shaped gear
teeth with cylindrically shaped pins located around the inside edge of the case. - In the course of one revolution of the crankshafts the teeth of the RV gear move the
distance of one pin in the opposite direction of the rotating cranks. The motion of the
RV gear is such that the teeth remain in close contact with the pins and many teeth
share the load simultaneously. - The output can be either the shaft or the case. If the case is fixed, the shaft is the
output. If the shaft is fixed, the case is the output.

- 1. The overall speed ration is calculated with the formula in page 56.
- 2. Set maximum input shaft speed to a value equal to or lower than the value of maximum allowable output speed multiplied
by the overall speed ratio for each type. - 3. The input capacity (KW) in the above table is determined by the efficiency of these reduction gears.
- 4. The output torque (In-lb) is so determined that the service life may be maintained constant for any output revolutions.

- 5. The rated torque is a torque at an output speed of 15 r/min, which is used as a basis for service life calculations.
(Refer to the rated service life, page 61.) - 6. The
value is a value for a discrete reduction gear, and the
for center and input gears is not included.
Therefore, refer to the following equation regarding the
converted to motor shaft.

- 7. If a higher speed than the above allowable maximum output speed is required, contact Nabtesco for further information.
- 8. The output revolution is for forward-reverse changeover applications and not applicable for continuous rotation in a single direction.
Contact Nabtesco when using the reduction gear for continuous single-direction rotation.
