NONLINEAR MECHANICAL CONVERTER AND DRIVING APPARATUS USING THE SAME

摘要

PURPOSE: A nonlinear mechanical converter and a driving apparatus using the same are provided to make smaller relative error of a driving output than relative error of driving output by nonlinear relation of driving input and output. CONSTITUTION: A mechanical converter comprises many elastic bodies including first and second elastic bodies(30,40) connected to first and second weight bodies(10,20) respectively. One of many elastic bodies between a driving input weight body and a driving output weight body has nonlinear characteristics which changes modulus of rigidity when strain changes. Thereby, a driving device generates regular output though process tolerance occurs.
