Abstract
The article deals with the optimization of the groove shapes of the output shaft and the optimization of the shape of the groove side surfaces and the overall design of the middle cam mechanism member to reduce contact pressure. The optimization process results in a reduction of the maximum contact pressure to 863 MPa when the recommended value is up to 800 MPa. It can thus be stated that this embodiment is already practically applicable.
