Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of winches, and in particular to a dual-speed winch clutch and a dual-speed electric winch having the winch clutch. Background Art

[0002] An electric winch is a device that can be used for traction, such as a car winch, which can be used for self-rescue and rescue in harsh environments. A car winch is a tool that uses its own power engine to rotate and pulls a car stuck in trouble through a fixed or towed steel rope or special cable at the other end. It is one of the essential tools for off-road vehicles.

[0003] In the related art, in addition to the traction function, the electric winch is often provided with a clutch mechanism in the reduction gear box, which is used to cut off the power connection between the motor and the winch drum to facilitate the pulling operation of the wire rope on the winch drum; however, most of the existing electric winches are single-speed winches with clutch control, and the application scope of single-speed winches is relatively limited, and there is still room for improvement. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to realize dual-speed belt clutch control of an electric winch and improve the application scope of the electric winch, the present application provides a winch clutch and a winch having the winch clutch.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present application provides a winch clutch, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A dual-speed winch clutch comprises a housing, and further comprises a primary planetary gear assembly, a secondary planetary gear assembly, a tertiary planetary gear assembly which are sequentially rotatably connected in the housing, and a speed regulating assembly arranged on the housing and cooperating with the secondary planetary gear assembly for speed regulation;

[0007] The first-stage planetary gear assembly is sequentially connected with the second-stage planetary gear assembly and the third-stage planetary gear assembly to form a reduction gear, the second-stage planetary gear assembly includes two planetary gear sets with different transmission ratios, both of the two planetary gear sets have a second internal gear rotatably connected to the housing, and at least one positioning hole is provided on the outer side wall of the second internal gear;

[0008] The speed regulating assembly includes a clutch pin which is passed through the housing and corresponds one-to-one with the second internal gear. The clutch pin can be inserted into or out of the positioning hole along the axial direction of the clutch pin relative to the housing. At most, one clutch pin is inserted into the positioning hole corresponding to the second internal gear.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the clutch pin slides and inserts into the positioning hole along its length direction. When both ends of the two clutch pins close to the second internal gear are received in the sliding holes, the first-stage planetary gear assembly is separated from the third-stage planetary gear assembly, which is the clutch state; the two-speed of the winch clutch is realized by inserting different clutch pins into the positioning holes of the corresponding second internal gears. That is, when the clutch pin close to the first-stage planetary gear assembly is inserted into the positioning hole of the corresponding second internal gear, and one end of the other clutch pin close to the second internal gear is received in the sliding hole, it is in the low-speed state. When the clutch pin far from the first-stage planetary gear assembly is inserted into the positioning hole of the corresponding second internal gear, and one end of the other clutch pin close to the second internal gear is received in the sliding hole, it is in the high-speed state, realizing the two-speed with clutch control of the electric winch.

[0010] Optionally, the speed regulation assembly further includes a base plate fixed on the housing, a driving member rotatably connected to the side of the base plate away from the housing, and an elastic member sleeved on the clutch pin. The elastic member makes the clutch pin have a tendency to move towards the housing and insert into the positioning hole;

[0011] One end of the clutch pin away from the housing penetrates through the base plate and is connected to the driving member. There is a rotating ramp on the outer side wall of the driving member away from the base plate. A driving column that reciprocates in the rotating ramp is fixed at one end of the clutch pin away from the housing. The driving member includes a clutch position, a low-speed position, and a high-speed position;

[0012] When the driving member is in the clutch position, both clutch pins are located outside the positioning hole, and the elastic member is in a compressed state; when the driving member is in the low-speed position or the high-speed position, one clutch pin is inserted into the positioning hole of the corresponding second internal gear, and the other clutch pin is located outside the positioning hole.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the elastic member makes the clutch pin have a tendency to move towards the housing, so that when the driving member is in the clutch position, the driving column presses against the bottom of the groove of the rotating ramp under the action of the elastic member to increase the friction force between the driving column and the driving member, making the driving member not easy to rotate without manual operation, improving the stability of the winch clutch during use. When the driving member is in the high-speed position or the low-speed position, the clutch pin is inserted into the positioning hole of the corresponding second internal gear under the drive of the elastic member, realizing the two-speed with clutch control of the electric winch.

[0014] Optionally, a limiting ring is provided on the outer side wall of the clutch pin passing through the housing. One end of the elastic member abuts against the base plate and the other end abuts against the limiting ring.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, first sleeve the elastic member on the clutch pin, and then pass the clutch pin through and install it on the base plate, so that one end of the elastic member abuts against the base plate and the other end abuts against the limiting ring. The installation is convenient and the assembly efficiency of the clutch pin, the elastic member, and the base plate is improved.

[0016] Optionally, at least one limiting groove for the driving column to be inserted is further provided on the outer side wall of the driving member, and the limiting groove is located at the bottom of the rotating ramp;

[0017] Wherein, when the driving column is inserted into the limiting groove, one end of the clutch pin corresponding to the driving column close to the second internal gear is received in the side wall of the housing.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the limiting groove enables the driving column to be kept inserted in the limiting groove under the action of the elastic member, so that the driving member is not easily rotated during non-artificial operation, and the stability of the winch clutch during use is improved.

[0019] Optionally, the speed regulating assembly further includes a handle fixed to the end of the driving member away from the housing.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the handle increases the holding area of the driving member, facilitates the user to hold and rotate the driving member, and improves the use efficiency of the winch clutch.

[0021] Optionally, a gear position indicator disk is provided at the end of the handle away from the housing, the gear position indicator disk is rotatably connected to the handle, the gear position indicator disk is fixedly connected to the housing, and an indicator block for cooperating with the gear position indicator disk is provided at the end of the handle away from the housing.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the indicator block cooperates with the gear position indicator disk to indicate the current state of the winch clutch, which facilitates the user to intuitively understand the current state of the winch clutch for convenient adjustment and improves the use efficiency of the winch clutch.

[0023] Optionally, the speed regulating assembly further includes a sealing cover covering the base plate and a sealing ring sleeved on the end of the driving member away from the housing. The sealing cover has a through hole for the end of the driving member away from the housing to pass through, and an embedding groove for the sealing ring to be embedded is provided on the outer side wall of the end of the driving member away from the housing.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the sealing cover and the sealing ring covers and seals the base plate and the driving member, improving the sealing performance of the winch clutch.

[0025] Optionally, the first-stage planetary gear assembly includes a first internal gear fixedly connected to the inside of the housing, two first base plates respectively provided at both ends of the first internal gear and rotating synchronously, a first sun gear embedded in the first internal gear, and a first planetary gear rotatably connected between the two first base plates. The first sun gear rotates with the output shaft of the motor, the first sun gear and the first internal gear are concentrically arranged, and both the first internal gear and the first sun gear mesh with the first planetary gear.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, the first-stage planetary gear assembly uses a planetary gear train for transmission, which has a compact structure, small size, light weight, high efficiency, small power loss, balanced transmission, and strong anti-impact and vibration resistance.

[0027] Optionally, the second-stage planetary gear assembly includes a driving gear that rotates synchronously with the first substrate, two second internal gears that are rotatably connected to the inside of the housing and are concentrically arranged, three second substrates that are parallel to each other and rotate synchronously, at least one second planetary gear that is rotatably connected to the second substrate, a second sun gear that rotates synchronously with the driving gear and meshes with the second planetary gear, a third planetary gear that is rotatably connected to the second substrate, and a transmission gear that rotates synchronously with the second substrate. The second planetary gear meshes with the second internal gear close to the first-stage planetary gear assembly, and the third planetary gear meshes with the second internal gear far from the first-stage planetary gear assembly.

[0028] By adopting the above technical solution and used in conjunction with the speed regulation assembly, it is possible to adjust the output speed of the winch clutch by locking different second internal gears with the clutch pins, achieving two-speed and clutch control of the electric winch.

[0029] Optionally, the third-stage planetary gear assembly includes a third internal gear that is rotatably connected to the inside of the housing, two third substrates respectively provided at both ends of the third internal gear, and at least one fourth planetary gear that is rotatably connected to the two third substrates. The fourth planetary gear meshes with the transmission gear, and the fourth planetary gear meshes with the third internal gear.

[0030] By adopting the above technical solution, the third-stage planetary gear assembly uses a planetary gear train for transmission, which has a compact structure, small size, light weight, high efficiency, small power loss, balanced transmission, and strong anti-impact and vibration resistance.

[0031] In a second aspect, the present application provides a two-speed electric winch, adopting the following technical solution:

[0032] A two-speed electric winch includes a motor and a winch drum rotatably connected to one end of the motor, and also includes a winch clutch as described above. The input end of the winch clutch rotates synchronously with the output shaft of the motor, and the output end of the winch clutch drives the winch drum to rotate.

[0033] By adopting the above technical solution, the clutch pin is driven to slide along its length direction by the rotation driving member. When both sides of the two clutch pins close to the housing are received in the sliding holes, the first-stage planetary gear assembly is separated from the third-stage planetary gear assembly, which is the clutch state. The two-speed of the winch clutch is realized by inserting different clutch pins into the positioning holes of the corresponding second internal gears. That is, when the clutch pin close to the first-stage planetary gear assembly is inserted into the positioning hole of the corresponding second internal gear, it is in the low-speed state, and when the clutch pin far from the first-stage planetary gear assembly is inserted into the positioning hole of the corresponding second internal gear, it is in the high-speed state, realizing the two-speed with clutch control of the electric winch.

[0034] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0035] The NGW type three-stage planetary reduction structure is adopted, and the second-stage planetary gear assembly is provided with a variable-speed structure with two different speed ratios. The clutch pin cooperates with the two second internal gears of the second-stage planetary gear assembly, and the clutch, high-speed and low-speed states of the winch clutch are respectively realized by the fixed or movable states of the two second internal gears. This design focuses on the shift reliability different from other two-speed winches and the function recognition of each working condition under the two-speed change state, different from the shift interference and difficult function recognition of the existing two-speed winches.

The speed regulation assembly 150 includes a clutch pin 151, a driving column 152, a driving member 153, a limiting ring 155, a base plate 154 and an elastic member 156.
