Linear differential
Abstract
Apparatuses and methods of operating a linear differential (100, 600) are described herein. The linear differential (100, 600) contains a slide portion (102) with parallel right-hand and left-hand threaded rods (112, 114). Threaded onto the right-hand and left-hand threaded rods (112, 114) and attached to the slide portion (102) are right-hand and left-hand gears (116, 118). Meshed between the right-hand and left-hand gears (116, 118) and also attached to the slide portion (102) is a driven gear (200). An end effector (104) is attached to the driven gear (200) and is configured to translate along a translation axis (110) and rotate around a rotation axis (120).
