Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of chip, dust and water resistance of power transmission components, and in particular to a protection mechanism and a shearing device using the same. Background Art
[0002] The power transmission component refers to the component that directly or indirectly transmits the power generated by the equipment to the power-using parts. It is an indispensable component of the power equipment. Mainly, the power transmission component can avoid direct contact between the power-using parts and the power source of the equipment to reduce damage to both parties. The power transmission component can also change the direction and magnitude of the force, so that the power-using parts can move in the set direction and at the set speed.

Figure 1 As shown, the movable part 11 is located outside the connecting part 10, and the power input end in the connecting part 10 is connected to the movable part 11 through the connecting rod 12. When the power of the power source reaches the movable part 11 from the power input end, the connecting rod 12 drives the movable part 11 to make the movable part 11 move relative to the connecting part 10, and a chip retaining ring 3 is provided at the opening corresponding to the connecting rod 12 on the connecting part 10. Although the chip retaining ring 3 can play a partial blocking role, since there is an active gap 4 between the chip retaining ring 3 and the outer surface of the connecting rod 12 to meet the movement of the connecting rod 12, whether the connecting rod 12 moves in a straight line or a curve, the chip retaining ring 3 can only block large debris, and dust, water and smaller debris can enter the connecting part 10 through the active gap 4, thereby affecting the transmission mechanism or circuit components in the connecting part 10, which is also one of the important reasons for frequent failures of the equipment after a period of use.

[0034] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0035] See also Figure 2-6 A protective mechanism includes a connecting portion 10, a movable portion 11 and a connecting rod 12. A connecting groove 13 connected to the inside of the connecting portion 10 is formed on the outer side of the connecting portion 10. One end of the connecting rod 12 passes through the connecting groove 13 and passes through the connecting portion 10 and is dynamically connected to the movable portion 11. The other end of the connecting rod 12 is a power input end. The power is transmitted to the movable portion 11 through the connecting rod 12, so that the movable portion 11 moves relative to the connecting portion 10.
[0036] Figure 4 The connecting rod 12 and the movable part 11 are shown to be connected by a screw connection. In other embodiments, the connecting rod 12 and the movable part 11 may also be connected by a snap connection, a latch connection, or the like. The purpose is to enable the connecting rod 12 to drive the movable part 11 to move the movable part 11 in a straight line, a curve, or the like relative to the connecting part 10.
[0037] A stretchable protective cover 14 is provided on the portion of the connecting rod 12 that passes through the connecting groove 13. One end of the protective cover 14 is fixed on the connecting portion 10 and corresponds to the sealed connecting groove 13, and the other end of the protective cover 14 is sealed and fixed on the connecting rod 12 or the movable portion 11. The protective cover 14 is used to prevent external debris, dust, water, etc. from entering the connecting portion 10, effectively preventing external debris, dust, water from entering the connecting portion 10 and affecting the transmission mechanism or circuit components in the connecting portion 10, and is safer to use.
[0038] The connecting portion 10 is connected to a first protective shell 15, which is sleeved outside the protective cover 14. The outer side of the first protective shell 15 is formed with at least one discharge hole 16 connected to the inside of the first protective shell 15. The first protective shell 15 is used to protect the protective cover 14 to prevent the protective cover 14 from being cracked due to collision or scratching by external objects during use, thereby effectively ensuring the service life of the protective cover 14.
[0039] During use, although the external debris, dust, water, etc. are isolated from the connecting portion 10 by the protective cover 14, the active space between the first protective shell 15 and the protective cover 14 still hides some debris, dust or water. The design of the discharge hole 16 can, on the one hand, allow the debris and dust to be squeezed out of the discharge hole 16 as the protective cover 14 stretches / contracts, and on the other hand, the water can be discharged through the discharge hole 16, and the water can take out the debris and dust when it is discharged from the discharge hole 16. The overall anti-chip, dust-proof and waterproof effects are excellent, and the protective cover can be better protected, and the service life is longer.
[0040] Preferably, the discharge hole 16 is located on the first protective shell 15 near the connecting groove 13. When discharging through the discharge hole 16, the movable part 11 can be located at the top and the connecting groove 13 can be located at the bottom. The water flows down from the top of the first protective shell 15 to the connection groove 13 and then is discharged from the discharge hole 16, so that the debris and dust deposited inside can be more easily taken out.
[0041] Preferably, a connection seat ring 100 is formed at the portion of the protective cover 14 that is sealed with the connection part 10, and at least one sealing ring 101 is formed on the outer side of the connection seat ring 100. A seat ring fixing groove 102 that matches the connection seat ring 100 is formed on the inner wall of the connection groove 13, and a sealing groove 103 that matches the sealing ring 101 is formed on the inner wall of the seat ring fixing groove 102. The provision of the sealing ring 101 makes it more difficult for external debris, dust, and water to enter the connection part 10 through the connection groove 13 after the protective cover 14 is fixed to the connection part 10 through the connection seat ring 100, and the sealing effect is better.
[0042] Preferably, the end of the protective cover 14 away from the connecting part 10 is sealed and fixed on the movable part 11, and the protective cover 14 can also prevent dust, water and debris on the part of the connecting rod 12 that is connected to the movable part 11. The part of the protective cover 14 that is sealed and fixed to the movable part 11 is formed with a buckle 110 that is contracted inward; the outer side of the movable part 11 is formed with an annular groove 111 corresponding to the buckle 110, and the movable part 11 is also formed with at least one truncated cone-shaped guiding inclined surface 112 that cooperates with the buckle 110. The provision of the truncated cone-shaped guiding inclined surface 112 makes it easier for the protective cover 14 to be fixed to the movable part 11, and convenient for installation.
[0043] For illustration, the stretchable and shrinkable property of the protective cover 14 can be provided by the material from which it is made, such as rubber, latex, plastic, silicone and the like, which are not listed one by one here.
[0044] In the embodiment of the present invention, the protective cover 14 is configured in a truncated cone shape that gradually decreases from one end connected to the connecting portion 10 to the other end. Compared with a straight cylindrical protective cover, when the protective cover 14 is shrunk to be squeezed, the truncated cone-shaped protective cover 14 can reduce the degree of squeezing of the protective cover 14 itself, and the protective cover 14 is not easily squeezed and cracked, and has better durability.
[0045] In the embodiment of the present invention, a reinforcement portion 17 surrounding the protective cover 14 is disposed on the protective cover 14 .
[0046] Specifically, the reinforcement part 17 is spirally wound around the protective cover 14. The provision of the reinforcement part 17 makes the protective cover 14 have better anti-telescopic fatigue performance, thereby making the protective cover 14 more durable.
[0047] Furthermore, the reinforcing portion 17 is connected to the outside of the protective cover 14 and a spiral guide groove 18 is formed on the outside of the protective cover 14. The width direction cross section of the inner wall of the first protective shell 15 is circular. When the water is discharged through the discharge hole 16 and the movable portion 11 is located at the top and the connecting groove 13 is located at the bottom: the water flows down from the top of the first protective shell 15 to the discharge hole 16 and then is discharged. During this period, since the inner wall of the first protective shell 15 and the outer surface of the protective cover 14 jointly form an activity space for limiting the flow direction of the water, the water close to the outer surface of the protective cover 14 will rotate in a spiral along the spiral guide groove 18, and under the action of gravity, the rotation speed will become faster and faster, and the corresponding centrifugal force will become larger and larger; at this time, the inner wall of the first protective shell 15 provides centripetal force for the rotating water until the rotating water reaches the part of the first protective shell 15 where the discharge hole 16 is set, and then is discharged from the discharge hole 16.
[0048] The water flows along the guide groove 18, which makes the protective cover 14 cleaner on the one hand, and on the other hand, the inner wall of the first protective shell 15 provides centripetal force for the rotating water, and the rotating water also flushes the inner wall of the first protective shell 15, making the inner wall of the first protective shell 15 cleaner.
[0049] When the discharge hole 16 is located at a position on the first protective shell 15 close to the connection groove 13, the rotation speed of the water reaches a high value before the water is discharged from the discharge hole 16, and the water is more likely to bring out the waste and dust in the first protective shell 15. The high-speed water can flush the connection groove 13 and the area near the connection groove 13, and has a good cleaning effect on the waste and dust deposited in these two places.
[0050] Please refer to Figure 4Preferably, the first protective shell 15 has a cylindrical inner wall, and discharges through the discharge hole 16, and when the movable part 11 is located at the top and the connecting groove 13 is located at the bottom, large objects can fall directly from the upper opening of the first protective shell 15 to the lower opening of the first protective shell 15, and are not easily blocked and adhered, which is conducive to timely discharge.
[0051] When the protective cover 14 is in a truncated cone shape that gradually decreases from one end connected to the connecting portion 10 to the other end, the water body rotates at a gradually increasing speed in the first protective shell 15, and the rotation radius of the water body also gradually increases. When the water body reaches a position flush with the discharge hole 16, the distance between the water body and the discharge hole 16 is greatly shortened, and the rotating water body can be more easily discharged from the first protective shell.
[0052] See also Figure 2-9 The present invention also discloses a shearing device, the shearing device 2 includes the above-mentioned protection mechanism 1, and the shearing device also includes a movable knife part 21 that is power-connected to the movable part 11. When the power source of the shearing device 2 is power-connected to the movable knife part 21 through the connecting rod 12, the user can perform shearing operations by cooperating with the movable knife part 21 and another movable knife part of the shearing device 2, or by cooperating with the movable knife part 21 and the fixed knife part of the shearing device 2. When used in specific applications such as pruning, harvesting, cutting, etc., which are prone to generate waste debris, dust or splashing water, the waste debris, dust, and splashing water generated by the application will be blocked by the first protective shell 15 and the protective cover 14 to prevent external debris, dust, and water from entering the connecting part 10 and affecting the transmission mechanism or circuit elements in the connecting part 10, making it safer to use.
[0053] Furthermore, the shearing device 2 also includes a second protective shell 22 connected to the first protective shell 15, the second protective shell 22 is sleeved on the movable part 11, and the outer side of the second protective shell 22 is formed with a movable groove 23 connected to the inside of the second protective shell 22, and the movable groove 23 corresponds to the movable track of the movable blade part 21. After the movable part 11 is connected to the movable blade part 21 by power, the movable track of the movable blade part 21 is mainly manifested as rotation. The design of the second protective shell 22 and the movable groove 23, on the one hand, serves the purpose of protecting the movable part 11, and on the other hand, narrows the passage into the first protective shell 15, so as to reduce waste, dust, and splashing water from entering the first protective shell 15, and the protection effect is better.
[0054] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the invention. Any reference numeral in a claim should not be considered as limiting the claim to which it relates.
