Building the wheelchair of the future - part 1

Building the wheelchair of the future - part 1 I'm going to build first a model and next a prototype of a ball wheel electric wheelchair. Wheelchairs are clumsy, expensive and some of them have range issues. Maybe it's not going to change the world but it's worth a try. Also check out my second project: a working Iron Man suit.

Cycloïdal reduction drive: the math

The reduction

 I need an aproximate 1/300 reduction.
 This is Physically impossible so i make 2 1/17 reductions stacked on top of each other because:
 17 x 17 = 286

R = Reduction
P = number of "theeth" on the ring
U = number of teeth on the disk
        P - U          18 - 17            1
R = ---------  => ----------  => -----
           P                 17              17 

The outer Diameter

I want a pin diameter of 6 and a gap of 6 between each pin.
so the Perimeter is 18 x (6 + 6) = 216
Perimeter = diameter x pi => diameter = perimeter / pi



216 / 3.14159 = 58.75

Vasemode in Cura - 3D Printing P*rn - Episode 1 Vasemode in Cura 2.5? Yes but it's called spiralize outer contour. I'm also trying innofil's flexible PLA compound.
