[0022] The following is combined with Figure 1-4 The present invention is described in further detail.
[0023] The embodiment of the present invention discloses a pipeline robot reducer. Figure 1-4, a pipeline robot reducer, including a roller 1 with an opening on one side, a groove is opened on the outer wall of the roller 1, and a rubber ring 2 is embedded in the groove of the roller 1, the open side of the roller 1 is provided with a fixed bevel gear group 4 that can be displaced in the axial direction, and the inner wall of the closed end of the roller 1 is fixedly connected with the output bevel gear 10, a rotating shaft mechanism 7 is provided between the fixed bevel gear group 4 and the output bevel gear 10, and the two ends of the rotating shaft mechanism 7 are respectively connected by a driving gear 8, a driven gear 14 and the fixed bevel gear group 4, and the output bevel gear 10 through meshing transmission connection, one side of the fixed bevel gear group 4 is fixedly connected with a sun gear 18 arranged coaxially therewith, and one side of the sun gear 18 is provided with a driving motor 6, a rotating frame 17 that rotates around the fixed bevel gear group 4 is provided on the outside of the rotating shaft mechanism 7, the rotating shaft mechanism 7 is rotatably connected to the rotating frame 17, the output shaft of the driving motor 6 is meshed with the sun gear 18 through the planetary gear 19 and the sun gear 18, and the driving motor 6 drives the rotating frame 17 to rotate around the sun gear 18, and the outside of the roller 1 is provided with The bracket 3 has one side that is rotatably connected to the center position of the closed end of the roller 1, and the other side is fixedly connected to a fixed shaft 11. One end of the fixed shaft 11 located inside the roller 1 is fixedly connected to the sun gear 18. A first bearing 12 is provided on the side of the first fixed bevel gear 401 close to the bracket 3. The inner wall of the first bearing 12 is fixedly connected to the first fixed bevel gear 401. A first hydraulic cylinder 13 is provided on the outer side of the outer wall of the first bearing 12. The output end of the first hydraulic cylinder 13 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the first bearing 12, and the fixed end is fixedly connected to the bracket 3. When the hydraulic cylinder drives the first bearing 12 to move along its axial direction, the transmission fixed bevel gear set 4 moves axially on the fixed shaft 11, thereby realizing the switching of the meshing conditions of the first fixed bevel gear 401 and the second fixed bevel gear 402. When the fixed bevel gear set 4 is located on the outside, the first fixed bevel gear 401 is meshed and transmission-connected with the driving gear 8. When the fixed bevel gear set 4 is located on the inside, the second fixed bevel gear 402 is meshed and transmission-connected with the gear ring 25.
[0024] The fixed bevel gear set 4 includes a first fixed bevel gear 401 and a second fixed bevel gear 402. The tooth ratios of the first fixed bevel gear 401, the second fixed bevel gear 402 and the output bevel gear 10 are different, and the tooth ratio of the first fixed bevel gear 401 to the output bevel gear 10 is smaller than the tooth ratio of the second fixed bevel gear 402 to the output bevel gear 10.
[0025] The rotating shaft mechanism 7 includes a coaxially arranged ball screw 701 and a rotating shaft 702. The ball screw 701 is connected to the driving gear 8 through a nut seat 23. A gear ring 25 that moves independently is provided on the outside of the ball screw 701. When the first fixed bevel gear 401 and the driving gear 8 are meshed, the gear ring 25 has a clearance fit with the second fixed bevel gear 402. When the driving gear 8 rotates independently between the ball screw 701 and the rotating shaft 702, it is displaced axially along the ball screw 701 to the inside of the gear ring 25. At the same time, the fixed bevel gear set 4 is displaced axially along its own axis, and the second fixed bevel gear 402 and the gear ring 25 are meshed and connected. A mounting bracket 26 is provided on the side of the gear ring 25 close to the rotating frame 17, and the bottom end of the mounting bracket 26 is provided with an outer wall that is engaged with it. The fixedly connected bearing, the inner wall of the bearing and the mounting bracket 26 are fixedly connected, an electromagnetic mechanism 24 is provided on the nut seat 23, and the output section of the electromagnetic mechanism 24 extends to the inside of the nut seat 23, and the electromagnetic mechanism 24 is used to transport its extended section to the inside of the nut seat 23 to limit the ball inside the nut seat 23. When the ball inside the nut seat 23 is limited, the nut seat 23 cannot be axially positioned along the ball screw 701 when the ball screw 701 rotates, so that the driving gear 8 and the ball screw 701 rotate radially synchronously to realize the revolution outside the first fixed bevel gear 401. The outer sliding sleeve at the connection position of the ball screw 701 and the rotating shaft 702 is provided with a second bearing 15, and the inner wall of the second bearing 15 is sleeved on the ball screw 70 1 and the rotating shaft 702 are fitted and connected at the connection position, so that the two can rotate radially synchronously. A second hydraulic cylinder 16 is provided on the outside of the second bearing 15. The fixed end of the second hydraulic cylinder 16 is fixedly connected to the rotating frame 17. The output end of the second hydraulic cylinder 16 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the second bearing 15. The second hydraulic cylinder 16 drives the second bearing 15 to perform axial displacement, switching the synchronous and independent rotation of the ball screw 701 and the rotating shaft 702. The ball screw 701 and the rotating shaft 702 are respectively provided with a limiting groove 27 at one end thereof. The limiting groove 27 is used to prevent the second bearing 15 from relative slipping when the ball screw 701 and the rotating shaft 702 are docked, thereby ensuring the stability of the docking. When the second hydraulic cylinder 16 is extended, the second bearing 15 slides on the ball screw 701 and the rotating shaft 702. The outer sides of the ball screw 701 and the rotating shaft 702 limit the radial positions of the two to prevent them from rotating radially. When the second hydraulic cylinder 16 is shortened, the second bearing 15 slides to one side of the rotating shaft 702. At this time, the ball screw 701 and the rotating shaft 702 rotate relative to each other, so that the rotation of the ball screw 701 will not affect the rotating shaft 702. The top bolt of the rotating frame 17 is fixedly connected to the servo motor 20, and the output shaft of the servo motor 20 is equipped with a driving gear 21. The ball screw 701 is located on the inner side of the rotating frame 17. An adjusting gear 22 is sleeved on one end, and the adjusting gear 22 and the driving gear 21 are meshed and connected. When the servo motor 20 drives the adjusting gear 22 to rotate, the ball screw 701 and the rotating shaft 702 rotate independently.
[0026] The implementation principle of a pipeline robot reducer according to an embodiment of the present invention is as follows: the driving motor 6 rotates, and the planetary gear 19 revolves around the outside of the sun gear 18, thereby driving the rotating frame 17 to revolve around the sun gear 18. When a diameter difference is set between the sun gear 18 and the planetary gear 19, the first level of deceleration is performed between the two. When the rotating frame 17 rotates, the rotating shaft mechanism 7 revolves around the first fixed bevel gear 401. When the driving gear 8 rotates outside the first fixed bevel gear 401, the driven gear 14 rotates synchronously with it at the same speed. When the driving gear 8 rotates one circle, since there is a difference in the number of teeth between the first fixed bevel gear 401 and the output bevel gear 10, when the driving gear 8 and the driven gear 14 rotate the same number of teeth, the output bevel gear 10 will rotate in the opposite direction to the difference in the number of teeth between the first fixed bevel gear 401, thereby achieving a deceleration effect. When the reduction ratio needs to be adjusted, the second hydraulic cylinder 16 first drives the second bearing 15 to move along the axis, so that the ball bearing The screw 701 and the rotating shaft 702 rotate independently. At this time, the servo motor 20 rotates, and the drive gear 21 transmits the connection adjustment gear 22 to rotate. At the same time as the adjustment gear 22, the electromagnetic mechanism 24 releases the lock of the ball inside the nut seat 23, thereby ensuring that the ball screw 701 can drive the nut seat 23 to move in its axial direction, and finally transmits it to the inner side of the gear ring 25 to achieve docking between the two. After docking is completed, the electromagnetic mechanism 24 locks the nut seat 23 again, and the second bearing 15 is reset. When the above operation is completed, the second fixed bevel gear 402 below and the gear ring 25 are clearance-fitted. At this time, the first hydraulic cylinder 13 drives the fixed bevel gear group 4 to axially displace, so that the second fixed bevel gear 402 and the gear ring 25 are meshed and transmitted. Since the second fixed bevel gear 402 and the first fixed bevel gear 401 have different numbers of teeth, the reduction ratio of the device can be adjusted, achieving a multi-stage reduction effect, and improving the applicability of the pipeline robot roller 1.
