[0047] In order to introduce the embodiments of the present invention more clearly, the following describes the usage methods of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0048] The lubricating oil from the hydraulic oil pump enters the oil pipe support 6, and the lubricating oil in the oil pipe support 6 is separated by the oil guide support 1. The oil guide bracket is stationary, and the primary planetary bracket 2 rotates together with the reducer housing. Since the oil guide bracket is provided with an annular oil groove 1-1, the three primary planetary bracket pins 4 on the primary planetary bracket 2 can be real-timely aligned. The oil is separated from the three nozzles 5, and the multi-point lubrication is realized through the annular oil groove 1-1 of the oil guide bracket 1. Thus, the three primary planetary gears and the bearings of the primary planetary gear are simultaneously lubricated. There are six springs 3 between the oil guide bracket 1 and the support bearing 11 to press the oil guide bracket 1 on the end surface of the primary planet carrier 2. There is a lubricating oil passage between the oil guide bracket 1 and the primary planet carrier 2. Lubricated oil tank. When the reducer is running, the first stage planet carrier 2 will rotate, and the lubricating oil from the oil pipe support 6 will pass through the oil groove of the oil guide bracket 1. At this time, the lubricating oil will have a reaction force on the spring 3, making the end surface of the first stage planet carrier 2 The end surface of the oil guide bracket 1 is separated by an oil film, and the lubricating oil at the oil groove is used to lubricate the end surfaces of the oil guide bracket 1 and the first-stage planet carrier 2. The spring force formula is F=6KX, where K refers to the stubborn coefficient of the spring, also called the elastic coefficient. X refers to the elongation of the spring; the formula for the pressure of the lubricating oil on the oil guide bracket: H=PXS, P represents the pressure , S is the pressure area of ​​the oil guide bracket. It can be seen from the above formula that the spring is selected through reasonable calculation, so that the force between the lubricating oil reaction force and the spring force can reach a certain balance, and the lubrication pipeline for the first-stage planetary gear is guaranteed to be unblocked. When the hydraulic oil pump flow exceeds the design flow range, the reaction force will increase, which is greater than the spring force, the oil guide bracket is pushed open, the excess lubricating oil overflows, and is retracted through the oil return line below, thus ensuring a certain flow of lubrication. The action of the spring 3 adapts to the change of the oil volume, and overflows the excess oil volume directly into the oil return pipe from below to ensure the continuous and reliable lubricating oil. Lubricate the secondary planetary gears: the lubricating oil of the hydraulic oil pump enters the thrust bearing bracket 7 through the middle oil inlet pipe 9 and then passes through the secondary planetary bracket pin 8 to lubricate the three secondary planetary gears and bearings respectively.
