Abstract A speed reducer comprised of a casing (1) obtained in a single block, which comprises a broad opening (2) through which it is possible to mount the different internal elements, among which there is a flange (4) which permits the assembly of a bottom shaft (7) with its pinion (8) and meshing (9), resting at one end of the bearings (10) and at the other on a bridge (11). It also includes some coaxial shafts (12, 13) resting on the flange (4) and on bearings (14, 15). The shaft (12) is the one that is coupled to the motor outlet (16), while the shaft (13) protrudes through the opposite part and constitutes the structure for effecting the transmission. The special distribution of the described internal elements permits that none of the gearing is overhanging; in other words, all the shafts have two supports with bearing, determining a greater balance and greater resistance of the unit.
A speed reducer comprising, a casing cast in a single piece and having a front surface and an inside, a plurality of protrusion elements on said casing and extending inwardly into said inside of said casing, a plurality of shaft support flanges secured to said protrusion elements, a plurality of shafts inside said casing with each shaft having opposite ends rotatably mounted on said shaft support flanges, at least two of said shafts being coaxially aligned within said inside of said casing, and having adjacent ends rotatably supported on the same one of said shaft support flanges, a plurality of reduction gears mounted on said shafts, said front surface of said casing having an opening of sufficient size to permit installation and assembly of said gears through said opening and inside said casing, a cover on said opening, and a bearing means on said cover for supporting one end of one of said shaft.
