Constant velocity drive rotary-wing aircraft rotor with torque splitting differential

摘要

A constant velocity drive mechanism of a rotary-wing aircraft rotor, comprises a torque splitting differential mechanism, comprising a driving disc integral in rotation with a rotor mast and connected to each of two driven discs either side of the driving disc, by a least one connecting pin hinged to each of the discs by one of three ball joint connections. Each of the driven discs is connected to a hub of the rotor by at least one of two driving devices, each of which is also hinged to the hub, so as to drive the hub in rotation about a geometrical axis which can be inclined in all directions about the axis of rotation of the mast.
