الميزات الرئيسية:
- Precise 90-Degree Steps: The geometry is specifically engineered to produce four precise 90-degree rotations of the output shaft for every full rotation of the input driver.
- Geneva Wheel Kinematics: This drawing features a classic four-slot Geneva wheel, clearly detailing the drive pin, wheel slots, and locking disc that ensure smooth motion and a stable dwell period.
- Integrated Locking Feature: The design includes a built-in locking mechanism, characteristic of Geneva drives, that holds the output shaft firmly in position during the stationary (dwell) phase.
- Complete Mechanical Assembly: The file provides a full assembly view, including the input drive wheel, the output Geneva wheel, shafts, bearings, and a rigid mounting frame for all components.
