Did some math for the V2. I want the output to be at a constant speed, which means the gears have to be noncircular. The output right now actually isn’t even sinusoidal, and Claude and I had to do tons of weird trig to find the angle as a function of time. After graphing everything on Desmos, I figured out the ideal shape of the gears. Next, I’ll do more mastersketching, and export the shapes from Desmos into Onshape. In the image, the black curve is the position as a function of time, and the blue and red curves are the ideal gear shapes. Actually, now that I think about it, this is wrong and I need to change the whole thing.
