<p>The present invention is a gear motor assembly for use in connection with electromechanical devices. The gear motor assembly provides high torque output, can be utilized in a small physical space and permits backdrive in the output shaft of the motor. The gear motor assembly includes a conventional DC motor having a first helical gear mounted to an output shaft of the DC motor. The first helical gear operably engages a second helical gear generally at a right angle. The second helical gear is linked by a transmission shaft to a third pinion. The third pinion operably engages a first cluster gear, which operably engages a second cluster gear. The second cluster gear then engages an output gear, which mounts a drive shaft. The first and second helical gears, the third pinion, the first and second cluster gear and the output gear form a gear train that wraps around the DC motor. The DC motor and the gear train are mounted within a housing or gearbox.</p> |
