[0035] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0036] 1. Through the overall setting of the continuously variable transmission and the reasonable setting of the driven pressure elastic element, as well as the reasonable setting of the relationship between the inner diameters of the active pressure elastic element and the driven pressure elastic element, the driven pressure element is used as a lubricating oil driving device, and the spiral line of the driven pressure element is driven by the driven shaft to drive the lubricating oil, thereby effectively lubricating and cooling the speed regulating bearing that is difficult to lubricate using conventional means. The lubrication and cooling capacity of this driving device is related to the speed, which perfectly meets the heating and lubrication requirements of the speed regulating bearing; by specifically limiting the relationship between its size ratio and the driven shaft, under the principle of minimizing the increase in cost, the existing structure is maximized, without adding extra weight, and the efficiency is optimized, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the system.
[0037] 2. By setting up an oil storage area with a specific structure and connection method, the lubrication and cooling conditions under extreme conditions of the use scenario are greatly improved. When the power machinery moves violently, the lubricating oil may be briefly thrown to one side, thereby losing the lubrication effect. The present invention sets up a specific oil storage area to ensure that each component can still be fully lubricated during this time period. During violent movement, the power of the lubricating oil is used to pump the oil out, and then it flows back by gravity. Since this area also has an additional cooling function, a lubrication and cooling arrangement is set for the difficult areas of cooling and lubrication at the same time. The preferred oil storage area is set on the outside of the shell, which will be more conducive to the implementation of the project and improve the stability and reliability of the system as a whole.
[0038] 3. The present invention sets a specific cam speed regulating mechanism, and the overall structure is no longer closed, which effectively improves the lubrication conditions of the speed regulating mechanism. At the same time, by improving the cam speed regulating mechanism, the efficiency of the cam speed regulating mechanism is improved, thereby reducing heat generation and alleviating the burden on the cooling system.
[0039] 4. The present invention provides a specific two-way overrunning clutch and cooperates with the motor and cam speed regulation. When speed regulation is not required, the motor does not need to apply a holding torque, which greatly reduces the heat generation under harsh heat dissipation conditions, thereby reducing the burden on the cooling system.
