Abstract
A three-dimensional tooth profile of internal teeth in a strain wave gearing is a basic internal-teeth tooth profile at an internal-teeth outer end, and is a reduced tooth profile, in which the basic internal-teeth tooth profile is proportionally reduced only in the lateral direction, at other tooth-trace-direction positions. A three-dimensional tooth profile of external teeth is a basic external-teeth tooth profile at an external-teeth outer end, and is an increased tooth profile, in which the basic external-teeth tooth profile is proportionally increased only in the lateral direction, at other tooth-trace-direction positions. The tooth tip circle of an internal-teeth inner-end-side portion of the internal teeth is larger than that of other portions and does not interfere with the external teeth. The external teeth and the internal teeth mesh three-dimensionally, the teeth do not interfere at the internal-teeth inner-end side.
