ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for a planetary gear assembly and drive is provided. The planetary gear assembly and drive has a space index of 60 and includes at least one planet gear with 15 teeth. The gear assembly and drive is capable of employing 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 planet gears and if multiple planet gears are employed, they are equally spaced about the circumference of the sun gear. The planetary gear assembly and drive further achieves a low frequency of tooth reconnection.
