Zusammenfassung: | The present technique, in accordance with certain embodiments, provides a novel gearing assembly. The exemplary assembly includes a planetary or epicyclic gear set that provides the final gear reductions from the output shaft. Specifically, the use of a planetary gear set for final reduction transfers rotation and torque to four planet gears, for instance, which drive a carrier assemblies that, in turn, causes rotation of the output shaft. Advantageously, such an assembly can provide high torque-levels (e.g., 300,000 inch-pounds) via a relatively small-sized device. |
