Abstract
In a silk hat-shaped external gear for a strain wave gearing, t(A)>t(C)>t(D)>t(B) is satisfied, where the thicknesses of the inner circumferential end (A), the middle part (B) and the outer circumferential end (C) of the diaphragm body portion of a diaphragm are t(A), t(B) and t(C), and where the thickness of the barrel-side end part (D) of the curved portion of the diaphragm is t(D). With reference to the thickness of the middle part (B), the thickness of the inner circumferential end (A) of the diaphragm is set so as to be thicker than conventional silk hat-shaped external gears. It is possible to realize an externally toothed gear capable of preventing diaphragm rupture due to thrust force at high load torque and having high fatigue strength.
