1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The conventional robotic position control is gradually being replaced by force control, which is commonly used in humanoid robot applications that require force interaction with the environment, force transmission, or contact. A high-back-drive-efficiency actuator with a high-torque-density permanent magnet motor connecting the low-ratio planetary reducer is widely applied in interactive robotic systems without a torque/force sensor. This paper proposes a high-torque-density permanent magnet motor with an external rotor structure, which can realize torque enhancement by the increased air-gap diameter and better space utilization by the internal planetary reducer, i.e., the reducer inside the stator. First, the motor topologies with different slot/pole number combinations are introduced. Then, the optimization of a slot/pole number combination is elaborated for the maximum torque and torque mass density. In addition, the influence of the slot/pole number combination on the torque characteristic and overload capability is investigated by the finite element (FE) method. The experimental results of the prototype motor are provided to verify the analysis.
