ABSTRACT:
In a gearless differential speed reducer, first and second discs are provided in a manner to oppose each other, and a plurality of semi-spherical recesses circumferentially are provided on the opposing surface of the first disc along a certain pitch circle. A groove provided on the opposing surface of the second disc, the groove defined as a cycloidal-based curve running along a pitch circle. A rollable ball is provided to be placed at each of the semi-spherical recess and the groove. The balls are adapted to roll within the recess, and at the same time, roll along the groove when a rotational movement is transmitted to the second disc to impart the second disc with a nutational movement. A rectifier member provided to pick up a rotational movement from the nutational movement of the second disc.
