Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of couplings, in particular to a coupling tool. Background Art
[0002] The oil pump is the power unit of the unit. If the pump has problems pumping oil, it needs to be disassembled and the pump's main shaft (circular shaft) rotated to perform an oil pumping test. Manual rotation tests on site often fail to achieve the required oil discharge pressure and speed. Therefore, an electric tachometer is used to rotate the oil pump's main shaft to meet the required discharge pressure and speed. Handheld electric tachometers are typically connected to the main shaft via a coupling.
[0003] However, existing couplings can only be used with a spindle of a specific radius on one end, and with a tool shaft of a specific radius on the other end.

The radius of the support plate 1 is larger than that of the first sleeve 2 and the second sleeve 3.
[0068] The first sleeve 2 has a circular fitting hole 20 for fitting the round shaft 100 .
[0069] The first sleeve 2 includes a plurality of first sleeve modules 2a distributed along the circumference, and each first sleeve module 2a is a part of the first sleeve 2. Each first sleeve module 2a is in an arc shape or a fan shape. Each first sleeve module 2a is slidably connected to the support disk 1 and can slide radially along the support disk 1 to achieve contraction and expansion. As needed, a first T-shaped end can be configured at one end of the first sleeve module 2a and the support disk 1, and a first T-shaped groove extending radially can be configured on the support disk 1. The first T-shaped end is clearance-fitted in the first T-shaped groove to slide the first sleeve module 2a and the support disk 1 together, and to prevent the first sleeve module 2a from being separated from the support disk 1.
[0070] Each first sleeve module 2 a is provided with a first telescopic pressing plate mechanism 23 . The first telescopic pressing plate mechanism 23 is telescopic and is used to press the circular shaft 100 assembled in the circular assembly hole 20 .
[0071] A first guide mechanism 6 is connected between each first sleeve module 2a and the support plate 1. The first guide mechanism 6 extends radially along the support plate 1. The first sleeve module 2a is slidably connected to the first guide mechanism 6 and is used to guide the radial sliding of the first sleeve module 2a. The first guide mechanism 6 can be a guide rail, a guide rod, or other guide mechanism.
[0072] A first driving mechanism 4 is connected between each first sleeve module 2a and the support plate 1. The first driving mechanism 4 can be a telescopic driving mechanism such as an oil cylinder, an air cylinder, a motor screw, etc. The first sleeve module 2a is connected to the output end of the first driving mechanism 4 to drive the first sleeve module 2a to slide back and forth radially along the support plate 1.
[0073] When it is necessary to shrink or expand the first sleeve module 2a to change the radius of the circular assembly hole 20 of the first sleeve 2 so as to assemble with different circular shafts 100 or discs 101, all the first driving mechanisms 4 are operated synchronously to drive all the first sleeve modules 2a to slide synchronously along the radial direction of the support disk 1.
[0074] When the circular shaft 100 or the circular disk 101 assembled into the circular assembly hole 20 needs to be clamped, all the first telescopic pressure plate mechanisms 23 are operated synchronously to clamp the circular shaft 100 or the circular disk 101 and arrange the circular shaft 100 or the circular disk 101 coaxially with the circular assembly hole 20.
[0075] The second sleeve 3 has a hexagonal fitting hole 30 for fitting the hexagonal shaft 200 .
[0076] The second sleeve 3 includes a plurality of second sleeve modules 3a distributed along the circumference, and each second sleeve module 3a is a part of the second sleeve 3. Each second sleeve module 3a is in an arc shape or a sector shape.
[0077] Each second sleeve module 3a is slidably connected to the support disc 1 and can slide radially along the support disc 1 to achieve contraction and expansion. As needed, a second T-shaped end can be configured between one end of the second sleeve module 3a and the support disc 1. A second T-shaped slot extending radially is configured on the support disc 1. The second T-shaped end is loosely fitted in the second T-shaped slot, thereby slidingly assembling the second sleeve module 3a and the support disc 1 together and preventing the second sleeve module 3a from separating from the support disc 1.
[0078] Each second sleeve module 3 a is provided with a second telescopic pressing plate mechanism 32 . The second telescopic pressing plate mechanism 32 is telescopic and is used to press the hexagonal shaft 200 assembled in the hexagonal assembly hole 30 .
[0079] A second guide mechanism 7 is connected between each second sleeve module 3a and the support plate 1. The second guide mechanism 7 is arranged along the radial extension of the support plate 1. The second sleeve module 3a is slidably connected to the second guide mechanism 7 and is used to guide the radial sliding of the second sleeve module 3a. The second guide mechanism 7 can be a guide mechanism such as a guide rail or a guide rod.
[0080] A second driving mechanism 5 is connected between each second sleeve module 3a and the support plate 1. The second driving mechanism 5 can be a telescopic driving mechanism such as an oil cylinder, an air cylinder, a motor screw, etc. The second sleeve module 3a is connected to the output end of the second driving mechanism 5 to drive the second sleeve module 3a to slide back and forth radially along the support plate 1.
[0081] When it is necessary to shrink or expand the second sleeve module 3a to change the radius of the hexagonal assembly hole 30 of the second sleeve 3 so as to assemble with different hexagonal shafts 200, all the second driving mechanisms 5 are operated to operate synchronously to drive all the second sleeve modules 3a to slide synchronously along the radial direction of the support plate 1.
[0082] When the hexagonal shaft 200 assembled into the hexagonal assembly hole 30 needs to be clamped, all the second telescopic pressing plate mechanisms 32 are synchronously operated to clamp the hexagonal shaft 200 and arrange the hexagonal shaft 200 coaxially with the hexagonal assembly hole 30 .
[0083] In the present invention, the radii of the six circles tangent to the hexagonal assembly hole 30 are referred to as the radii of the hexagonal assembly hole 30 .
[0084] In the present invention, the process of the first sleeve module 2a and the second sleeve module 3a moving radially inward on the support plate 1 is called contraction, and the process of the first sleeve module 2a and the second sleeve module 3a moving radially outward on the support plate 1 is called expansion.
[0085] Therefore, the shaft coupling provided by the present invention can be matched with circular shafts 100 and hexagonal shafts 200 of different radii, has a wide range of applications, and improves product performance.
[0086] In one embodiment, Figure 1-5 As shown, the first sleeve 2 includes a first cylinder wall 21 and an annular partition 22 connected to the inner side of the first cylinder wall 21 . The annular partition 22 is provided with a positioning hole 222 for cooperating with the positioning pin 102 of the circular shaft 100 .
[0087] The first cylinder wall 21 includes a plurality of first cylinder wall units 211 arranged along the circumferential direction. Correspondingly, the annular partition 22 includes a plurality of partition units 221 arranged along the circumferential direction.
[0088] A partition plate unit 221 and a first cylinder wall unit 211 are connected to form a first sleeve module 2a.
[0089] Each first cylinder wall unit 211 is slidably connected to the support plate 1 , and each partition plate unit 221 is provided with at least one positioning hole 222 .
[0090] Each first cylinder wall unit 211 is equipped with a first telescopic pressing plate mechanism 23 .
[0091] The first guide mechanism 6 and the first drive mechanism 4 are respectively connected between the first cylinder wall unit 211 and the support plate 1 .
[0092] In this embodiment, an annular partition 22 is installed at the bottom of the inner side of the first cylinder wall 21 of the first sleeve 2. The annular partition 22 is provided with a positioning hole 222 for assembling and positioning with the positioning pin 102 on the circular shaft 100 / disc 101.
[0093] In the present embodiment, the first tube wall 21 and the annular partition 22 are divided into a plurality of units, for example, six units. Specifically, the first tube wall 21 is divided into a plurality of first tube wall units 211 along the circumferential direction, wherein two adjacent first tube wall units 211 are not connected, and the top view of each first tube wall unit 211 is arc-shaped. The annular partition 22 is correspondingly divided into a plurality of partition units 221 along the circumferential direction, wherein two adjacent partition units 221 are not connected, and each partition unit 221 is fixedly connected to the inner side of a first tube wall unit 211. A partition unit 221 is connected to a first tube wall unit 211 to form a first sleeve module 2a.
[0094] Each first cylinder wall unit 211 is in sliding connection with the support plate 1, and can slide along the radial direction of the support plate 1. Each first cylinder wall unit 211 is equipped with a set of first telescopic pressing plate mechanisms 23. Each first cylinder wall unit 211 is connected with a set of first guiding mechanisms 6 and a first driving mechanism 4.
[0095] Each partition unit 221 is provided with at least one positioning hole 222, and preferably, a plurality of positioning holes 222 are distributed along the radial direction of the annular partition 22 on each partition unit 221 to adapt to the distance variation between the positioning pins 102 on the circular shaft 100 or the circular disc 101.
[0096] When the first driving mechanism 4 drives the first cylinder wall unit 211 to contract or expand, the partition unit 221 is correspondingly contracted or expanded synchronously, so as to adapt to the distance variation between the positioning pins 102 on the circular shaft 100 or the circular disc 101.
[0097] In one embodiment, in order to make the two first sleeve modules 2a in contact in the circumferential direction when in the expanded state, the following scheme is adopted:
[0098] As shown in Figure 4-5 , a first spring 24 is sleeved on the first cylinder wall 21, and a second spring 25 is sleeved on the annular partition 22. When the first sleeve 2 is in the initial state (contracted state), that is, the two adjacent first sleeve modules 2a are in contact, the first spring 24 and the second spring 25 are in the initial state and do not provide elastic force. When the first sleeve 2 is in the expanded state, that is, the two adjacent first sleeve modules 2a are separated and not in contact, the first spring 24 and the second spring 25 are in the stretched state and provide restoring elastic force, which helps the first cylinder wall unit 211 and the partition unit 221 to contract and press towards the center, and also helps the subsequent restoration of the first cylinder wall unit 211 and the partition unit 221, and makes the two adjacent first cylinder wall units 211 and the two adjacent partition units 221 in contact, which is beneficial to improve the structural stability of the first sleeve 2 in the expanded state.
[0099] Specifically, an arc-shaped hole is formed on each first cylinder wall unit 211 and each partition unit 221, and the two ends of the first spring 24 and the second spring 25 are connected after passing through the corresponding arc-shaped holes in sequence, so as to form a circular ring-shaped spring.
[0100] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 6-9 , the second sleeve 3 includes a second cylinder wall 31, and the second cylinder wall 31 includes six second cylinder wall units 311 arranged along the circumferential direction. The inner surface of the second cylinder wall unit 311 is a planar part of the hexagonal assembly hole 30.
[0101] Each second cylinder wall unit 311 is a second sleeve module 3 a.
[0102] Each second cylinder wall unit 311 is equipped with a set of second telescopic pressing plate mechanisms 32 .
[0103] The second guiding mechanism 7 and the second driving mechanism 5 are respectively connected between the second cylinder wall unit 311 and the supporting plate 1 .
[0104] In this embodiment, the second wall 31 of the second sleeve 3 is divided into six equal sections along the circumferential direction, each section comprising a second wall unit 311. The inner surface of the second wall unit 311 serves as the flat surface of the hexagonal assembly hole 30. Each second wall unit 311 is assembled with a second retractable pressure plate mechanism 32. Each second wall unit 311 is connected to a second guide mechanism 7 and a second drive mechanism 5.
[0105] In this embodiment, the second cylindrical wall 31 is divided into six equal parts according to the plane of the hexagonal assembly hole 30. This allows the integrity of the flat portion of the hexagonal assembly hole 30 to be maintained even when the second sleeve 3 is in the expanded state. When the second cylindrical wall unit 311 is driven to move by the second driving mechanism 5, this is equivalent to directly driving the flat portion of the hexagonal assembly hole 30, facilitating structural layout and operation.
[0106] In one embodiment, in order to ensure that the two second sleeve modules 3a in the expanded state are connected in the circumferential direction, the following solution is adopted:
[0107] like Figure 8-9 As shown, a third spring 33 is sleeved on the second cylinder wall 31. When the second sleeve 3 is in the initial state (contracted state), that is, when two adjacent second sleeve modules 3a are in contact, the third spring 33 is in the initial state and does not provide elastic force. When the second sleeve 3 is in the expanded state, that is, when two adjacent second sleeve modules 3a are separated and not in contact, the third spring 33 is in the stretched state, providing a reset elastic force, which helps the second cylinder wall unit 311 to contract and press toward the center, and also helps the second cylinder wall unit 311 to subsequently reset. It also forms a connection between the two adjacent second cylinder wall units 311, which is conducive to improving the structural stability of the second sleeve 3 in the expanded state.
[0108] Specifically, an arc-shaped hole is provided on each second cylinder wall unit 311 , and the third spring 33 passes through the corresponding arc-shaped holes in sequence, and then both ends are connected to form a ring-shaped spring.
[0109] In one embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 12 As shown, the first driving mechanism 4 includes a first motor 41 installed on the edge of the supporting plate 1 and a first screw 42 connected to the first motor 41 .
[0110] The first screw rod 42 extends in the radial direction of the support plate 1 and is threadedly connected to the first sleeve module 2 a.
[0111] The second driving mechanism 5 includes a second motor 51 mounted on the edge of the supporting plate 1 and a second screw 52 connected to the second motor 51 .
[0112] The second screw rod 52 extends in the radial direction of the support plate 1 and is threadedly connected to the second sleeve module 3 a.
[0113] In this embodiment, the first driving mechanism 4 and the second driving mechanism 5 both adopt a motor screw structure, which is easy to control.
[0114] The first driving mechanism 4 includes a first motor 41 and a first screw 42. The first motor 41 is a servo motor, which is installed at the edge of the support disk 1, specifically, it can be installed at the edge of the first groove 11 of the support disk 1. One end of the first screw 42 is connected to the output end of the first motor 41, and the other end is connected to the central part of the support plate 1 through a bearing. The first screw 42 extends radially along the support disk 1. The first sleeve module 2a has an internal threaded hole, specifically, the internal threaded hole is provided on the first barrel wall unit 211. The first screw 42 passes through the internal threaded hole of the first sleeve module 2a, and the two are threadedly connected. Thus, the first motor 41, the first screw 42 and the first sleeve module 2a constitute a linear drive mechanism similar to a screw mechanism. The forward rotation of the first motor 41 can drive the first sleeve module 2a to move toward the center of the support disk 1, and the reverse rotation of the first motor 41 can drive the first sleeve module 2a to move toward the edge of the support disk 1.
[0115] The second driving mechanism 5 includes a second motor 51 and a second screw 52. The second motor 51 is a servo motor, which is installed at the edge of the support disk 1, specifically, it can be installed at the edge of the second groove 12 of the support disk 1. One end of the second screw 52 is connected to the output end of the second motor 51, and the other end is connected to the central part of the support plate 1 through a bearing. The second screw 52 extends radially along the support disk 1. The second sleeve module 3a has an internal threaded hole, specifically, the internal threaded hole is provided on the second barrel wall unit 311. The second screw 52 passes through the internal threaded hole of the second sleeve module 3a, and the two are threadedly connected.
