Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of speed reducer technology, and in particular to a speed reducer with a dual-support output structure that resists radial force. Background Technology
[0002] A speed reducer is an independent component consisting of gear transmission, worm transmission, or gear-worm transmission enclosed in a rigid housing. It is commonly used as a speed reduction transmission device between the prime mover and the working machine, and plays a role in matching speed and transmitting torque between the prime mover and the working machine or actuator. It is widely used in modern machinery.
[0003] When tapered roller bearings are used to fix and support the output gear shaft, this structure limits the radial force load that the output gear shaft can withstand. Over time, this can easily lead to significant wear on the tapered roller bearings. During the operation of the reducer, the high temperature of the tapered roller bearings can easily cause oil seal deformation, greatly increasing the risk of oil leakage. Based on these problems, Chinese patent CN222650485U discloses a simply supported beam double-support structure reducer, which replaces tapered roller bearings with self-aligning bearings, thus reducing costs. The output gear shaft is made into a semi-enclosed state through the housing arm and the main housing, which can play a certain role in dust prevention.
[0004] The self-aligning bearing in this reducer clearly lacks the necessary support structure to resist radial forces. This structural deficiency means that the radial forces generated during operation cannot be effectively dispersed and offset. Due to the lack of sufficient support, the radial forces easily cause the rolling elements inside the bearing to deviate laterally, accompanied by a certain amount of elastic deformation. This deviation and deformation further narrows the contact area between the raceway and the rolling elements, reducing the contact area. When the contact stress gradually accumulates and exceeds the limit that the bearing material can withstand, it will trigger a series of negative effects, including fatigue wear and the gradual propagation of microcracks. Over time, these tiny damages will continue to accumulate and deteriorate, eventually leading to damage to the overall bearing structure, seriously affecting the normal operation and service life of the reducer.

[0005] The purpose of this section is to outline some aspects of embodiments of the present invention and to briefly describe some preferred embodiments. Simplifications or omissions may be made in this section, as well as in the abstract and title of this application, to avoid obscuring the purpose of these documents; however, such simplifications or omissions should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention.
[0006] To solve the above problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution.
[0007] A reducer with a radial force-resistant dual-support output structure includes a reducer body, a base fixedly connected to the bottom of the reducer body, an opening at the center of the front end of the reducer body with a rotatable shaft extending from the opening, an output mechanism installed at the front of the reducer body, the output mechanism including a housing, the front end of the reducer body being fixedly connected to the rear end of the housing, two sets of meshing herringbone gears being installed inside the housing, and multiple sets of mounting posts being fixedly connected to the outer edge of the front end of the herringbone gears, with bearings installed at the front end of the mounting posts.
[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution: A square hole is provided at one end of the top of the box, and a box body is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the square hole. A threaded hole is provided at the center of the top of the box, and an oil tank is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the threaded hole.
[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution: The oil tank has a through-hole at the top center, and a push rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the hole. Dustproof and ventilation nets are installed at both ends of the top of the box.
[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution: A square hole is provided at one bottom end of the box, and a manifold is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the square hole. Multiple sets of threaded through holes are provided at the bottom of the manifold, and an oil receiving tank is threadedly connected to the inner wall of each threaded through hole.
[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution: A rotating ring extends through the rear end of the housing. The outer wall of the shaft passes through the inner wall of the rotating ring and extends into the housing. A shaft collar is fixedly connected to one side of the rear end of the inner wall of the housing. A shaft core is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the shaft collar. The front end of the shaft and the front end of the shaft core are fixedly connected to the rear end of the herringbone gear.
[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution: The front end of the inner wall of the box is fitted with a front plate. Both ends of the front plate are provided with through-holes. The top center of the front plate is provided with a through-hole, and the inner wall of the through-hole is fixedly connected with a threaded tube.
[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution: Hollow plates are passed through the top and bottom of the box. Threaded holes are formed in the hollow plates, and threaded rods are threaded to the inner walls of the threaded holes. One end of the outer wall of each threaded rod is threaded to both ends of the inner wall of a threaded tube. Rotary plates are fixedly connected to the opposite sides of both sets of threaded rods.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: (1) By setting two sets of herringbone gear structures, since there is a mechanical coupling relationship between the axial force and the radial force of the bearing, the herringbone gear can indirectly affect the balance of the radial force through its symmetrical design. The axial force generated by its double helix structure can cancel each other out, thereby reducing the axial load of the bearing. This balance of axial force indirectly reduces the pressure on the radial bearing, thereby achieving the effect of resisting the radial force. This not only further improves the service life of the reducer, but also improves the stability of the overall bearing structure.
[0015] (2) By setting the connection structure between the threaded rod and the threaded tube, the front plate can be fixed in the box. The user can rotate the threaded rod using the U-shaped rotating plate. When the threaded rod is taken out of the threaded tube, the bearing behind the front plate can be disassembled or replaced. By setting the oil tank, the lubricating oil can be stored. By setting the simple connection between the oil tank and the box, the disassembly and assembly of the oil tank is more convenient and quick. It is also convenient for the user to replenish the lubricating oil in the oil tank. A piston is installed at the bottom of the push rod. When the push rod slides down, it can squeeze the lubricating oil in the oil tank into the box. The lubricating oil falling into the box can contact the herringbone gear, which helps to improve the smoothness of the rotation of the two sets of herringbone gears. Attached Figure Description

The user can rotate the threaded rod 418 using the U-shaped rotating plate 419. When the threaded rod 418 is removed from the threaded tube 416, the bearing 413 behind the front plate 414 can then be disassembled or replaced.
