An overhung mounted carrier with flexible pins is applied to the planetary gear train of a wind turbine gearbox to investigate the influence of the self-aligning effect by means of the deflection of the planet spindle and the flexible pin on the lifetime of the planet gear for a wind turbine gearbox. To analyze the load distribution of planet gears, both Euler theory and commercial software are employed. By applying an overhung mounted carrier with flexible pins in the wind turbine gearbox, we can improve the misalignment performance, face load factor, and service life of the planet gears. In particular, it was confirmed that a service life of more than 20 years could be realized for wind turbine gearboxes by applying a flexible pin to the overhung mounted carrier.

The present paper describes a conceptual design of a turbopump which employs a planetary gear system. In a launcher system, weight is one of the most important design factor. In turbopump systems using propellants such as kerosene, or methane, single shaft systems are employed because of simplicity. One of the main disadvantages of this system, however, is the same rotational speed of both pumps and a turbine which forces to operate under non-optimum condition. To operate each component in optimum or favorable rotational speeds, a planetary gear system seems to be the best choice when the compactness and efficiency of a turbopump system is considered. A conceptual design and feasibility of the turbopump system adopting a planetary gear system is suggested.

기계-유압식 무단변속기인 DMT는 농촌의 고령화의 추세에 맞물려 중 대형 트랙터의 핵심기술로 부각되고 있다. DMT는 기계동력과 유압동력인 두 개의 전달 구조를 조합하고 서로의 단점을 보완함으로써 기동력이 우수하고, 변속충격이 거의 없고, 전달효율이 향상되고 있다. 트랙터용 DMT는 유압동력을 전달하는 HST, 기계동력을 분배 뽀는 합성하는 유성기어 장치, 전진과 후진을 선택하는 전 후진 클러치, 출력축을 정지하는 브레이크 등으로 구성되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 DMT의 핵심기술인 HST와 유성기어장치에 대한 내부구조 및 동력전달을 해석하고 시제품의 실험결과를 제시하여 국내에서 진행되고 있는 DMT의 연구현황을 소개하고자 한다.

This study is concerned with the numerical investigation of dynamic characteristics of 2.5MW-class wind turbine gearbox in which the misalignment improvement of plenary gear shafts by the flexible pins and the dynamic impact response are analyzed by the finite element method. The tooth contact between gears is modelled using the line element having the equivalent tooth stiffness and the contact ratio to accurately and effectively reflect the load transmission in the internal complex gear system. The equivalent tooth stiffness is calculated by utilizing the tooth deformation analysis and the impulse torque is applied to the input shaft for the dynamics response characteristic analysis. Through the numerical experiments, the equivalent tooth stiffness model was validated and the misalignment improvement of planetary gear shafts was confirmed from the comparison with the cases of fixed shafts at one and both ends.

Since the four-wheel drive transmits the driving force to all four wheels, the traction with the road surface increases, thereby increasing the driving force. However, it has the disadvantage of lowering fuel efficiency. Therefore, four-wheel drive is commonly used as a method of converting to optional four-wheel drive when necessary while driving in two-wheel drive. This selective four-wheel drive converts the driving force by mechanically changing the electric signal sent by the driver in the transfer case. In this study, in order to mechanically change the electrical signal, a reducer is applied to the motor to increase the torque to perform the function. Therefore, in this study, a reduction mechanism applicable to the motor inside the transfer case applied to convert the drive is derived, and the reduction ratio applying the planetary gear type is optimized accordingly. And based on the derived reduction ratio, two sets of planetary gears using a ring gear in common were applied to develop a planetary gear tooth type in which the input shaft and output shaft are decelerated in the same phase. Optimization design was carried out.

100nm 공간 분해능을 갖는 NSOM 장치를 자체 제작하고 computer를 이용하여 측정을 자동화 하였다. 압전소자의 인가된 전압에 대한 이동거리를 x, y, z 축에 따라 측정 및 보정하고 NSOM topography 사진을 얻는데 성공하였다. 이때 이동거리는 x, y 축은 약 20nm/V이고, z 축은 2.5nm/V 이었다. 하지만 압전소자의 인가된 전압에 따른 이동거리의 비선형성에 대한 보정 및 feedback 제어의 안정화 등은 앞으로 해결해야할 문제로 남아 있다. 자체제작된 NSOM을 이용하여 GaAs/AlGaAs MQWs와 InAs/GaAs QDs 시료에 대한 PL, photocurrent 및 reflectance 등 분광 실험을 성공적으로 수행하였다. PL 실험의 경우 첨예한 광 섬유에 보내진 레이저 광의 세기가 매우 미약하기 (수십 nW) 때문에 탐침 크기가 약 500nm 일 때 측정되었다. 하지만 photocurrent 실험에서는 시료를 검출기로 사용하기 때문에 신호대 잡음비가 PL에 비하여 100배 이상 좋아지는 것을 발견하였다. 따라서 NSOM을 이용한 photocurrent 방법은 앞으로 NSOM의 공간 분해능을 높이는데 하나의 돌파구를 마련해 줄 것으로 기대된다.

Electric wheelchairs, the output from the motor is mainly applied to a speed reducer using a power transmission device such as a belt or a chain. However, although a speed reducer using a belt or chain is a simple device, it occupies a lot of space and has a space limitation, so it is not suitable for an electric wheelchair driving part. However, since the speed reducer of the planetary gear type is decelerated on the same axis, the volume can be reduced, so the space constraint is less than that of the belt or chain type reducer. Therefore, in this study, a driving part that can obtain great propulsion with a speed reducer using a planetary gear type was developed through a study on the driving part of a wheelchair that can be switched between manual and electric. Accordingly, the tooth shape of the planetary gear applied to the reducer was designed using the Kisssoft program. In addition, the drive part was designed to be applicable to the existing wheelchair wheels, and the mechanism was optimized for the manual/electric switching principle and operation principle of the drive part. Based on the research contents, the final design and manufacture of the wheelchair reducer drive unit in the form of a planetary gear having one sun gear, two planetary gears and one ring gear was carried out.
