TRANSFERRING SPHERE SUPPORT DEVICE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To impart the braking action to an object transfered by a transferring sphere support device from the transferring sphere support device side. SOLUTION: A main ball 3 is rotatably supported in a concave spherical surface 10 of a concave spherical surface member 2a via a large number of sub-balls 4. A cover member 5a is arranged for preventing jumping-out of the main ball 3. A pressurizing member 33 restricts rolling of the large number of sub-balls 4. The braking action is imparted to rotation of the main ball 3 by this restriction. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
