application? maybe Mazda's rotary engine could use it...they have a fuel econ. issue + wear n tear issue in their MX engines... perhaps u hav a solution !
@sinuhesieda this is kinda how rotary engines work!!! like the mazda rx-8 ( i think its the rx8) also a new norton motorcycle concept as well. Its similar but not exactly it, same concept but less gears
Bravo! What software did you use to animate this? How did you define the motion path of the small circular gears? How did you calculate the precise size of all the gears, including the outer one? Was it by trial-and-error... eyeballing it?
@bryceguy72 The motion path of the smaller gear is defined by the result of the parent gears. I estimated the initial sizes of inner and outer gears. Originally they are based on r=offset + sine.
Then by defining another offset (=r of the smal gears) for both, these will have crossings. These crossings are the precise position of the smaller gears :-)
how did I get here?

Are there real life aplication for this solution? Anyway it is cool :)

@sinuhesieda Thanks! Perhaps to create some sort of irregular transmission, but nothing very usable I think :-)
