Rotary Drive Mechanism Accepts Two Inputs
Abstract
Mechanism connects two drives to single output shaft without clutches or planetary gears. More reliable than clutch-based two-drive mechanism and less bulky than planetary mechanism. Moreover, designed for any ratio of output to input speed, including an 1:1 ratio, unlike planetary gears. Drives operate simultaneously or separately.
