THOUGHT YOU MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN THE MAN WHO STARTED THE FIELD OF ELASTOMECEANICS.
HERE IS A RELATIVELY NEW FIELD, IF YOU CARE TO USE YOUR IMAGINATION AND ARE PREPARED TO "WORK" TO SEE THAT YOUR THOUGHTS GET CARRIED |

C.WALTON MUSSER
was researching the principle of the original harmonic drive |
|
The first set of harmonic drive in the world was assembled here |
| |
|

 |
|
 |
| The first set of harmonic drive in the world was build here |
|
Harmonic drive was applied in aerospace at first |
|
Harmonic drive was applied in rocket at first |
|
|
|
| |
| 1955 |
The first set of Harmonic Drive is derived, was patented in 1955,by its inventor, C.Walton Musser. The original patent-holder, an American company, (United Shoe Machinery Corp.) Initially this new product was applied in aerospace technology and other highly specific applications. |
| |
|
| 1967 |
In 1967 a license agreement was signed between the American patent-holder and a Japanese company, which later traded under the name of Harmonic Drive Systems Inc. |
| |
|
| 1976 |
Developing the pancake-type gear sets HDUR series. |
| |
|
| 1982 |
Developing the highly dynamic Servo Actuators available with AC and DC technology and integrated Harmonic Drive precision gearboxes. |
| |
|
| 1988 |
To increase the gear life, the torsional stiffness and the torque capacity, developing a new tooth profile, patented as "IH type gearing". |
| |
|
| 1990 |
Developing the high stiffness cross roller bearing. The integration of this high capacity bearing to support output loads will in many applications eliminate the need for the user to design an external output bearing assembly, thus reducing design and production costs. |
| |
|
| 1992 |
Developing The New HFUC Series features a shortened Flexspline, which results in an important reduction of the axial length and reduction of weight, the more important, the high torque capacity and high stiffness could be increased. |
| |
|
| 1996 |
Developing The Hollow Shaft Units and Component Sets Series HFUS. This type of gear offers a compact design with an integrated cross roller output bearing and a large hollow shaft through the gear. |
| |
|
| 1997 |
Developing The Harmonic Drive AC Hollow Shaft Servo System Series FHA. |
