Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of push rod devices, and specifically relates to a segmented push rod device using a plastic nut and a processing method thereof, in particular a push rod device and a processing method thereof suitable for a solar power generation sun tracking bracket. Background Art

[0002] The technology of using solar power generation devices to generate electricity is becoming more and more common around the world. In order to maximize the utilization of solar energy by solar power generation devices, existing technologies use solar tracking brackets to achieve the lifting and / or angle adjustment of solar panels in solar power generation devices to follow the different spatial angles of the sun, and the lifting and / or angle adjustment functions of the solar tracking brackets are all achieved by using push rod devices. Since solar power generation devices are used in harsh outdoor environments, they usually need to withstand ambient temperatures of -30℃ to 70℃ to operate, and solar power generation devices need to operate in strong winds. The wind force on the solar power generation devices is relatively large, so this places strict requirements on the use of push rod devices, requiring each set of push rod devices to be able to withstand a static load of no less than 3 tons and a dynamic load of no less than 1 ton.

[0003] To ensure that the solar tracking bracket can operate normally in an ambient temperature range of -30°C to 70°C, withstand a static load of no less than 3 tons and a dynamic load of no less than 1 ton, and have a service life of no less than 5,000 hours, the push rod device that enables the lifting and / or angle adjustment functions of the solar tracking bracket is designed to have a service life of more than 10,000 cycles of lifting and / or angle adjustment. The lead screw and nut play a crucial role in this. To reduce wear on the lead screw and nut during reciprocating spiral motion, the lead screw is typically made of metal, while the nut is more commonly made of copper or plastic.

[0004] Copper nuts offer the following advantages: 1. They are used in harsh environments with large temperature fluctuations, demonstrating their high strength and ability to withstand heavy static and dynamic loads. 2. Their low coefficient of linear expansion prevents axial stiffness from occurring as the ambient temperature rises and falls. However, copper nuts have a disadvantage: their self-lubricating properties are poor in these harsh environments. For example, if a copper nut is lifted a meter under a dynamic load of 1 ton, the number of lifts is less than 150, requiring frequent greasing to ensure smooth movement during the screw drive. If the number of lifts reaches approximately 200 without greasing, the screw will completely wear out the copper nut, rendering the entire actuator inoperable. A typical solar farm has thousands of actuators, and regular greasing requires significant cost, labor, and resources.

[0005] The advantages of plastic nuts include excellent self-lubrication, requiring only a single application of grease for lubrication throughout their lifecycle, ensuring smooth screw transmission with the screw without the need for frequent lubrication. However, plastic nuts have the following disadvantages: Due to their poor strength, they cannot withstand large static and dynamic loads. If the length of a single nut is increased to achieve these loads, axial expansion can occur due to the plastic's high linear expansion coefficient when used in harsh environments with large temperature fluctuations.

[0006] Therefore, how to utilize the advantages of the push rod device using a plastic nut, which has good self-lubricating properties and does not require frequent refueling, and solve the problem that the push rod device using a plastic nut will cause axial expansion and death under the drive of the screw rod in a harsh temperature environment with large temperature changes and under a large load, has been a technical problem that technical personnel in this field have been unable to solve for a long time.

[0026] Step 6: After the adhesive solidifies, internal threads are uniformly processed on the blank segments of all segmented plastic nuts of the plastic nut to form segmented plastic nuts that are simultaneously threadedly fixedly connected to one end of the metal tube.

[0027] In order to solve the above problem, the second technical solution for achieving the second purpose of the present invention is a method for processing a segmented push rod device, wherein the improvement is that at least two or more segmented plastic nuts D1, D2, ..., D n At the same time, the processing steps for fixing the connection with the clamping spring at one end of the metal tube are as follows:

[0028] Step 1: Processing n+1 retaining ring grooves with a spacing of 7 to 82 mm on the inner wall of one end of the metal tube;

Furthermore, by using two or more segmented plastic nuts and leaving sufficient expansion gaps between each segmented plastic nut, the overall length of the plastic nut is lengthened, improving its ability to withstand large static and dynamic loads. Furthermore, because the overall length of the plastic nut is shortened due to segmentation, the length of each segmented plastic nut is shortened, thereby reducing the deformation of each segmented nut in harsh temperature environments with large temperature differences. This significantly reduces the length deformation of each segmented plastic nut, minimizing the length deformation of each segmented plastic nut. Even when the plastic nut is used in harsh temperature environments between -30°C and 70°C, axial expansion between the plastic nut and the screw will not occur. The present invention is particularly suitable for use in push rod devices for solar power generation tracking brackets operating in harsh temperature environments with large temperature differences and under heavy loads. Since plastic nuts are used instead of copper nuts, production costs can be greatly reduced and efficiency can be improved.

Among them, the second processing method of the segmented push rod device using plastic nuts provided by the present invention also has the following advantages: simple and convenient assembly process, high production efficiency, simple processing, segmented plastic nuts D1, D2, ..., D n There is no need to turn external threads, nor is there a need to turn internal threads on the metal pipe. Moreover, turning several deep grooves in the metal pipe is simpler and more labor-saving than turning internal threads. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Under the premise of ensuring that the static load and dynamic load that each segment of the segmented plastic nut can withstand can meet the design requirements, it is preferred that the static load and dynamic load that each segment can withstand is 5 to 50 mm. In order to prevent the segmented plastic nut from axially expanding at high or low temperatures, resulting in the failure of the segmented push rod device using the plastic nut to adjust the lifting and / or angle of the push rod device of the solar power generation sun tracking bracket, the adjacent segmented plastic nuts D1, D2, ..., D n There are separation gaps C1, C2, ..., C n All are greater than 0.05mm.

[0066] like Figures 13 to 17 、 Figure 19 As shown, in the segmented push rod device using plastic nuts of the present invention, when the plastic nut 600 is subjected to a dynamic load of 1 ton, all segmented plastic nuts D1, D2, ..., D nThe total length E2 is between 50 and 150 mm. All segmented plastic nuts within this total length range can withstand an overall dynamic load of 1 ton and a static load of 3 tons or more. When the plastic nut 600 withstands a dynamic load of 2 tons, all segmented plastic nuts D1, D2, ..., D n The total length E2 is between 100 and 200 mm. All segmented plastic nuts within this total length range can withstand an overall dynamic load of 2 tons and a static load of 5 to 10 tons.

[0067] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 8 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 11 、 Figures 13 to 19 As shown, in the segmented push rod device using a plastic nut of the present invention, the major diameter (Ø2) of the external thread of the screw rod 500 is between 15 and 35 mm, and the matching outer diameter (Ø4) of the plastic nut 600 is between 30 and 50 mm. This matching of the screw rod 500 and the plastic nut 600 ensures that the segmented plastic nut 600 maintains excellent overall mechanical properties even in harsh environments with large temperature differences, enabling it to withstand large static and dynamic loads.

[0068] like Figures 1 to 3 、 Figure 8 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 11 、 Figure 13 、 Figures 15 to 17 、 Figure 19 As shown, in the segmented push rod device using a plastic nut of the present invention, a switch contact ring 700 is screwed and fixed to the portion of the plastic nut 600 exposed at one end of the metal tube 800. To prevent the nut 600 and the switch contact ring 700 from separating, anaerobic glue or thread fastening glue is applied to the screwed portion for connection and fixation. Alternatively, the nut 600 can be screwed into the interior of the metal tube 800, and anaerobic glue or thread fastening glue is applied to the screwed portion for connection and fixation, while the switch contact ring 700 is screwed and fixed to one end of the metal tube 800. A switch for starting the drive motor 100 in the electric push rod device is installed on the switch contact ring 700. When the electric push rod device is needed to lift and / or adjust the angle of the external mechanism, the moving component on the external mechanism used to start the electric push rod device triggers the switch device located on the switch contact ring 700, so that the drive motor 100 is powered on and starts to rotate. The input shaft 120 drives the transmission device 400 to rotate, so that the screw rod 500 rotates, and then drives the nut 600 that is threadedly fixed with the metal tube 800 to achieve reciprocating linear motion, so as to realize the function of the entire electric push rod device to lift and / or adjust the angle of the external mechanism.

[0069] like Figures 1 to 7As shown, the segmented push rod device using a plastic nut of the present invention also has a drive motor 100, which is fixedly connected to the lower housing 300. The drive shaft of the drive motor 100 is the input shaft 120 of the reduction gear box. The motor end cover 110 of the drive motor 100 has an integrally formed annular boss 111 on the outer end surface. A cap 130 is installed on the input shaft 120 of the drive motor 100. The shape of the center hole of the cap 130 is consistent with the cross-sectional shape of the corresponding mating portion of the input shaft 120. The center of the cap 130 is consistent with the cross-sectional shape of the corresponding mating portion of the input shaft 120. The hole shape is tooth-shaped or circular, which matches the tooth-shaped or circular shape of the cross section of the corresponding mating portion of the input shaft 120. The cap 130 and the input shaft 120 adopt an interference fit. The cap 130 has a groove that matches the annular boss 111 of the motor end cover 110. The groove of the cap 130 and the annular boss 111 of the motor end cover 110 have a gap to form a spatial separation. The separation gap can be between 0.2 and 0.5 mm. The cap 130 and the annular boss 111 of the motor end cover 110 form a labyrinth oil-blocking structure. The 0.2 to 0.5 mm separation gap ensures that the cap 130, which is installed as a whole by interference fit on the input shaft 120 of the drive motor 100, will not generate friction with the annular boss 111 when the input shaft 120 rotates, and will not cause obstruction to the rotation of the drive motor 100. At the same time, the cap 130 and the annular boss 111 form an oil-blocking structure that can prevent the lubricating grease from flowing from the reduction gear box into the drive motor, thereby effectively preventing the lubricating grease from seeping into the drive motor along the drive shaft of the drive motor.

[0070] like Figures 1 to 7As shown, in the segmented push rod device using a plastic nut of the present invention, the cap 130 is interference fit with the input shaft 120, the cap 130 is an umbrella-shaped structure, and the cap 130 maintains a certain gap to cover or partially cover the annular boss 111 of the motor end cover 110. When the gear shaft or worm at the end of the input shaft 120 of the drive motor 100 is respectively engaged with the first-stage spur shaft, helical shaft or worm gear of the transmission device 400, since the cap 130 covers or partially covers the outside of the annular boss 111 of the motor end cover 110, the lubricating grease located between the transmission device 400 and the input shaft 120 for achieving the lubrication function is blocked on the outside of the cap 130 and flows along the outer surface of the cap 130 in the umbrella-shaped structure into the annular concave cavity space formed by the connection between the motor end cover 110 and the lower shell 300, and the annular boss 111 located inside the cap 130 forms a seal with the cap 130. The stepped labyrinth structure prevents the lubricating grease from flowing above the annular boss 111 of the input shaft 120 even when the height of the lubricating grease in the annular concave cavity space formed by the connection between the motor end cover 110 and the lower shell 300 exceeds the height of the cap 130. The cap 130 and the annular boss 111 form an oil-blocking structure that can prevent the lubricating grease from flowing from the reduction gear box to the interior of the drive motor, which effectively solves the problem of lubricating grease penetrating into the interior of the drive motor along the drive shaft of the drive motor in the prior art.

[0071] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in the segmented push rod device using a plastic nut of the present invention, the outer periphery of the cap 130 is a circular or polygonal structure, and the shape of the center hole of the cap 130 is an inner gear ring shape or a circle. The annular boss 111 that matches the cap 130 to form a labyrinth oil-blocking structure is also a circular or polygonal structure. The shape of the center hole of the cap 130 is consistent with the cross-section of the corresponding matching part of the input shaft 120. At the same time, combined with the diversity of the shape of the center hole of the cap 130, the cap 130 can be applied to and matched with input shafts 120 of different shapes, as well as motor end covers 110 with different types of annular bosses 111. It has a wider versatility and can be selected according to different motor end covers 110, which is more conducive to the matching of the cap 130 with the annular boss 111 of the motor end cover 110.

[0072] like Figures 1 to 7As shown, in the segmented push rod device using a plastic nut of the present invention, the cap 130 is made of engineering plastic or metal, and the motor end cover 110 is made of metal. When the cap 130 and the motor end cover 110 are matched with each other, there are two material combinations: 1. The cap 130 and the motor end cover 110 are both made of metal; 2. The motor end cover 110 is made of metal, and the cap 130 is made of engineering plastic. The combination of dissimilar materials can achieve the best friction reduction effect. When the drive motor 100 drives the cap 130 located on the input shaft 120 to rotate, even if the cap 130 and the annular boss 111 of the motor end cover 110 generate friction, the cap 130 will not be excessively worn, causing damage to the cap 130.

[0073] like Figures 1 to 3 、 Figure 8 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 11 As shown, in the segmented push rod device using plastic nuts of the present invention, the reduction gear box is provided with a housing mounting head 901 or a metal dustproof tube with a housing mounting head 901, and the other end of the metal tube 800 is provided with a tube wall connection hole or fixedly connected to the metal tube mounting head 902. Specifically, the housing mounting head 901 is mounted on the upper shell 200 of the reduction gear box or the housing mounting head 901 is mounted on the lower shell 300 of the reduction gear box; or the upper shell 200 of the reduction gear box and the housing mounting head 901 are made into one piece or the lower shell 300 of the reduction gear box and the housing mounting head 901 are made into one piece; or the housing mounting head 901 is located on a metal dustproof tube that is integrally mounted and connected to the reduction gear box, or is located on a component that is mounted and connected to the reduction gear box. The housing mounting head 901 can be used to connect to the fixed end of an external mechanism, and the metal tube mounting head 902 can be used to connect to the moving end of an external mechanism, and vice versa.

[0074] like Figures 1 to 3 、 Figure 8 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 11 As shown, in the segmented push rod device using plastic nuts of the present invention, the reduction gearbox is fixedly connected to the housing mounting head 901, and the other end of the metal tube 800 is fixedly connected to the metal tube mounting head 902, with the metal tube mounting head 902 and the housing mounting head 901 respectively located on either side of the reduction gearbox. Of course, a modified mounting structure can also be used in which the reduction gearbox is provided with a metal dustproof tube with the housing mounting head 901, and the other end of the metal tube 800 has a tube wall connection hole, so as to be suitable for compact applications.

[0075] like Figures 1 to 3 、 Figure 8 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 11 As shown, in the segmented push rod device using a plastic nut of the present invention, the transmission device 400 is a three-stage gear transmission mechanism or a one-stage worm gear transmission mechanism. The transmission device 400 is a gear transmission mechanism with at least two stages or a one-stage or multi-stage worm gear transmission mechanism. Such a transmission device 400 can achieve structural simplification while meeting the transmission function, and preferably a three-stage gear transmission mechanism or a one-stage worm gear transmission mechanism is used. Depending on the output torque of the drive motor 100 and the speed of the input shaft 120, in order to achieve the optimal function of the electric push rod device by driving the screw 500 to drive the nut 600 up and down, a two-stage or four-stage gear transmission mechanism or a two-stage worm gear transmission mechanism can also be selected.

[0076] like Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figures 7 to 12 As shown, in the segmented push rod device using a plastic nut of the present invention, the exposed end 121 of the input shaft 120 is connected to an external manual control or electric control mechanism to input power to the push rod device. The exposed end 121 of the input shaft 120 has a square, hexagonal, flat, or flower key groove structure. The exposed end 121 with various structural forms can be adapted to various structural forms of external manual control or electric control mechanisms, having the advantage of high assembly or mating stability. At the same time, the input shaft 120 with various exposed end 121 forms is highly interchangeable, more suitable for mass production, and can better achieve the transmission of external power to the transmission device 400 through the input shaft 120, thereby improving the stability of the push rod device.

[0077] like Figure 14 、 18 As shown, in the segmented push rod device using plastic nuts of the present invention, among the plastic nuts 600, the segmented plastic nuts D1, D2, ..., D n The internal thread has a helix angle Ψ≤2.90°, and the screw rod 500 has a n The internal thread has a helix angle Ψ that matches the external thread. n The internal thread and the external thread of the screw have a smaller helix angle, in the segmented plastic nut D1, D2, ..., D n After the screw rod is used to carry out the spiral transmission push rod device to reach the set lifting height and / or angle position, the segmented plastic nuts D1, D2, ..., D nIn a harsh temperature environment with a large temperature difference of -30℃ to 70℃, especially when the push rod device used for solar power generation tracking bracket is working, it still has a high self-locking ability. Even if the driving force is lost and the axial load force continues to exist, the screw will not be locked in the segmented plastic nuts D1, D2, ..., D n Relative rotation occurs in the segmented plastic nuts D1, D2, ..., D n The screw rod can be self-locked well, so that the entire push rod device can be well maintained at the set lifting height and / or angle position without causing equipment and safety accidents.

[0078] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 8 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 11 、 Figure 13 、 Figure 15 As shown in the figure, the processing method of the first segmented push rod device provided by the present invention is improved in that: at least two or more segmented plastic nuts D1, D2, ..., D n At the same time, the processing steps for threadedly connecting with one end of the metal tube 800 are as follows:

[0079] Step 1: Take the blanks of the segmented plastic nuts D1, D2, D3, and D4 of the plastic nut 600, which have been processed with external threads but not yet processed with internal threads, and apply adhesive on the external threads of each of the blanks and the internal threads of the metal tube 800. The adhesive is a thread fastening adhesive. The length L1, L2, L3, and L4 of each segment of the segmented plastic nuts D1, D2, D3, and D4 is between 5 and 80 mm, and the total length E2 of all the segmented plastic nuts D1, D2, D3, and D4 of the plastic nut 600 is between 50 and 200 mm.

[0080] Step 2: Rotate and install the first segmented plastic nut D1 into the metal tube 800, and ensure that the first segmented plastic nut D1 reaches the deepest screwing position set by the metal tube 800;

[0081] Step 3: After rotating the second segmented plastic nut D2 in the metal tube until it touches the first segmented plastic nut D1, rotate the second segmented plastic nut D2 in the opposite direction within a range of 10 to 180 degrees to create a separation gap C1 between the second segmented plastic nut D2 and the first segmented plastic nut D1;

[0082] Step 4: After rotating the third segmented plastic nut D3 in the metal tube 800 until it touches the second segmented plastic nut D2, the third segmented plastic nut D3 is rotated in the opposite direction within a range of 10 to 180 degrees, so that a separation gap C2 is formed between the third segmented plastic nut D3 and the second segmented plastic nut D2;

[0083] Step 5: After rotating the fourth segmented plastic nut D4 in the metal tube 800 until it touches the third segmented plastic nut D3, the fourth segmented plastic nut D4 is rotated in the opposite direction within a range of 10 to 180 degrees, so that a separation gap C3 is formed between the fourth segmented plastic nut D4 and the third segmented plastic nut D3;

[0084] Step 6: After the adhesive solidifies, the blank segments of all the segmented plastic nuts D1, D2, D3, and D4 of the plastic nut 600 are uniformly processed with internal threads to form segmented plastic nuts D1, D2, D3, and D4 that are simultaneously threadedly fixedly connected to one end of the metal tube 800. The processing work of threading and fixing the segmented plastic nuts D1, D2, D3, and D4 to one end of the metal tube 800 is completed.

The first segmented plastic nut D1 is fixedly connected to the metal tube 800 via a threaded connection, while the second segmented plastic nut D2 is fixedly connected to the metal tube 800 via a pin 801. The first segmented plastic nut D1 and the metal tube 800 can also be secured securely by applying adhesive. Of course, this embodiment can also be replaced with a structure that uses a combination of pinning for the first segmented plastic nut D1 and threading for the second segmented plastic nut D2. Alternatively, a structure that uses a combination of screws and threads can be used.

[0091] Step 1: Process five retaining ring grooves 802 with a spacing of 7 to 82 mm on the inner wall of one end of the metal tube 800;

At this time, the fifth segmented plastic nut D n A separation gap δ5 is formed between the other end of the blank segment and the fifth retaining spring K5;
