Introduction
Among many mechanisms transferring
the drive from the active link to the
passive, there are those whose function
is to transform uniform rotary motion
into continuous variable rotary motion.
The demand for mechanisms offering the
variable motion of the driven link was
particularly visible in the construction of
textile machines.
The drive of the slay in a loom (shown in
the schematic diagram in Figure 1) which
makes use of a pair of elliptical pinions
resulted in an increase in the force of the
weft beat-up in a fabric.
Pinions of this type are found in textile
machines such as wool combing machines, presses for increasing the density of the materials pressed, cutters,
and many others. In all these devices, elliptical pinions were nearly always used
considering the necessity for continuous
motion, and thoroughly investigated in
respect of theory. All the mathematical
relationships describing the geometry
and kinematics of a gear with elliptical pinions are expressed by means of
elementary functions, and hence any
detailed analysis of them was impossible
when the computer calculation technique
was not known. The above problem was
the subject of a doctoral dissertation [5]
in which, besides the geometry and kinematics of elliptical gears, an attempt at
designing such a gear for some precise
kinematic requirements was presented.
