• Every year our Strategic Design has called for:
– “Fast, Stable, Maneuverable With Good, Pushing Power”
– How do you get maneuverable – agile – quick turning?
– How do you get stable?
– How do you get both?

Friction
Classical Friction Theory
• Torque at wheel imparts a “Drive force” at wheel carpet contact point
• This is reacted by a “Friction Force” of up to the “Friction
coefficient” times the weight on the wheel
– The friction coefficient is a characteristic of the materials involved
– If the Drive force is greater than the Friction force, the wheels will slip
• The maximum Torque that can be transmitted
by the drivetrain is the “Breakaway Torque”
that creates a Drive force equal the
Weight =
Friction coefficient x Weight on wheel
mass*gravity =
=m*m*g

Friction reaction force
=m*m*g

Drive Motors, Transmissions, Sprockets and
Wheel Diameter
• How to translate speed of motor to speed of robot?
– Motor speed inputs into transmission with a gear ratio
• Motor load results in speed loss
– Transmission output to sprockets connected by chain
• Ratio of sprocket teeth decreases speed
• Overall Ratio includes motors, transmissions,
sprockets/belts, wheel diameter

Gear Ratio Effects
Gear Ratio Optimization Trades Off Speed and Torque
2CIMS in each of 2 single speed gearboxes
• Higher gear ratio
– Lower max speed
– More low end torque
– May not be able to use all of Torque?
• Lower Gear Ratio
– Higher max speed
– Less max torque
– May not ever get to top speed?
• Torque provides acceleration
– T=F*r =m*a *r
– increasing speed
m = 1.3

Torque=>
• Torque decreases with speed
• Wheel friction limits amount of Torque
that can be transmitted without
spinning wheels
<= Speed
<= Distance
– Only get advantage of higher gear ratio if
friction is high
– For Instance: m = 0.9 there is no advantage to a
gear ratio above 7.3
• For typical m = 1.1 What is optimum
gear ratio?
Time (seconds)
Gear Ratio Effects
2 Speed Gearbox Allows Optimization of Speed and Torque
2CIMS in each of 2 two speed gearboxes
• Desire to “shift” when acceleration
(or Torque) crosses
m = 1.3
– Here shift from 11.43 ratio to 5.03 ratio
at about 25 in-lbs and 16 fps
– Very slight advantage in distance / time
m = 1.1

• If m = 1.1 then get up to 320 in-lbs
torque at low speed
• And up to 15 fps!
Torque=>
<= Speed
• Only is advantage if shifted at
right times
• Driver shifting is difficult
– Automation opportunity?
– Read speed on encoder and shift
automatically?
<= Distance

2 CIM vs 3 CIM Drive
3 CIM / Gearbox Drive Eliminates Need For 2 Speed Gearbox
• 3 CIMs provide 50% more torque
at any gear ratio
• Minimal benefit for 2 speed
gearbox
– Friction becomes more important
than gear ratio
• Can have ~14 fps robot (very
fast) and have max
transmittable torque
• 3 CIMs provide quicker
acceleration – getting more
distance vs. time.
– Equal to 2 CIM – 2 speed

2 CIM vs 3 CIM Drive
When May 3 CIM – 2 Speed Make Sense?
• Low gear ratio – high speed
– High gear ratio set at level of
max useful torque benefit
• and not trip breakers
• Here for m = 1.2, Ratio~ 9:1
– Low gear maintains high
acceleration
– Makes difference only if
accelerating over 15 feet
distance
• At 20 feet may get up to
3-5 foot advantage
• May not be controllable

Drive Simulation
Allows Convenient Evaluation Of Different Drive Train Configurations
• Useful to understand trends
– But make sure to anchor to test data
• Includes considerations for:
– Speed loss coefficient – how much slower motor is under load
• Free speed is 5300 RPM, loaded speed ~ 4300 RPM (81%)
• May be dependent on gear ratio – further test data needed
– Torque accelerates speed, but torque reduces with speed
– Speed desired called by voltage
– Voltage drops when load is first applied, current spike
• Simulation
– Iterative time step solution - excel
– Test data can be taken to improve simulations
– Spreadsheets from team 33 and 148 (JVN) used and here-bye credited
• Modified both in calculations and display.
