DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0029] The principles and features of the present application are described below in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which the examples are presented only to explain the present application and are not intended to limit the scope of the present application. The present application is described in more detail by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings in the following paragraphs. The advantages and features of the present application will be more clearly described according to the following description and claims. It should be noted that the drawings are very simplified and use non-precise proportions, only for the purpose of facilitating, clarifying and assisting the description of the embodiments of the present application.
[0030] Embodiment 1
[0031] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the embodiment provides a transfer case, comprising a transfer case housing 1, a power input shaft 2, a power output shaft 3 and a first oil stirring gear 4, the power input shaft 2 is rotatably installed in the transfer case housing 1, and one end of the power input shaft 2 extends out of the transfer case housing 1 and constitutes a power input end, an input gear 21 and a clutch 22 are coaxially installed on the power input shaft 2, and the input gear 21 is in rotational connection with the power input shaft 2, the power output shaft 3 penetrates the transfer case housing 1 and is in rotational connection with the transfer case housing 1, one end of the power output shaft 3 located in the transfer case housing 1 is in driving connection with the input gear 21 through a transmission member 5 provided in the transfer case housing 1, the clutch 22 is used to drive connect or disengage the power input shaft 2 and the input gear 21, one end of the power output shaft 3 located outside the transfer case housing 1 is used to output power, and when the power input shaft 2 drives the power output shaft 3 to rotate, the rotational speed of the power output shaft 3 is lower than that of the power input shaft 2, the first oil stirring gear 4 is coaxially fixedly connected with the clutch 22, the first oil stirring gear 4 rotates with the power input shaft 2 to stir the lubricating oil in the transfer case housing 1, since the horizontal height of the power input shaft is higher than that of the power output shaft, and the power input shaft is suspended on the lubricating oil surface of the transfer case housing, by adding the first oil stirring gear, the lubricating oil in the transfer case housing can be stirred to lubricate and cool the bearings on the power input shaft, and the rotational speed of the power input shaft is higher than that of the power output shaft, that is, the transfer case has the effect of reducing speed and increasing torque, thereby improving the output torque of the power output end.
[0032] The technical scheme further comprises a parking brake 6, which is installed on one side of the transfer case body 1, and the other end of the power input shaft 2 extends out of the transfer case body 1 and is coaxially fixedly connected with a brake part of the parking brake 6. Thus, when parking, the power input shaft is braked by the parking brake, thereby achieving parking brake of the whole vehicle. The parking brake is installed on the transfer case body, and the installation structure is compact (the distance between the transfer case and the main transmission case can be reduced, thereby making the structure more compact).
[0033] As shown in Figure 4 The clutch 22 comprises a meshing sleeve 221, a first meshing tooth seat 222 and a second meshing tooth seat 223. The second meshing tooth seat 223 is coaxially fixedly installed on the input gear 21. The first meshing tooth seat 222 is coaxially fixedly installed on the power input shaft 2. The first meshing tooth seat 222 and the second meshing tooth seat 223 are close to each other. The meshing sleeve 221 is coaxially and slidably sleeved on the first meshing tooth seat 222 and is in meshing connection with the first meshing tooth seat 222. The meshing sleeve 221 can slide axially to be close to the second meshing tooth seat 223 under the action of external force, so as to drive-connect the first meshing tooth seat 222 and the second meshing tooth seat 223 through the meshing sleeve 221. Or the meshing sleeve 221 can slide axially to reset, so as to disconnect the drive connection between the first meshing tooth seat 222 and the second meshing tooth seat 223.

The diameter of the first oil stirring gear 4 is greater than that of the meshing sleeve 221. The structure is simple. When the meshing sleeve slides to be close to the second meshing tooth seat, the two sides of the meshing sleeve are in meshing connection with the first meshing tooth seat and the second meshing tooth seat respectively, so as to realize the drive connection between the power input shaft and the input gear. At this time, the input gear rotates synchronously with the power input shaft. When the meshing sleeve slides to be completely sleeved on the first meshing tooth seat, the meshing sleeve is separated from the second meshing tooth seat, so that the clutch is in the disengaged state. At this time, the input gear does not rotate with the power input shaft. The first meshing tooth seat 222 and the second meshing tooth seat 223 are both gear-shaped, and the diameters of the two are consistent (and the number of teeth is consistent). The inner hole of the meshing sleeve is gear-shaped, and the meshing sleeve is in cooperation with the first meshing tooth seat 222 and the second meshing tooth seat 223.

[0036] The above technical solution further comprises a second oil stirring gear 7, which is coaxially rotatably installed on the transmission shaft, and the second oil stirring gear 7 is meshed with the first oil stirring gear 4, when the engagement sleeve 221 slides axially under the action of external force, the first oil stirring gear 4 always remains meshed with the second oil stirring gear 7, the second oil stirring gear 7 rotates with the first oil stirring gear 4 to stir the lubricating oil in the transfer case body 1 (in this way, splash lubrication can be formed in the transfer case body, that is, the transmission members above the lubricating oil level are lubricated), so that the lubrication and heat dissipation performance of the bearings on the power input shaft and the transmission shaft can be further improved.
[0037] The above technical solution comprises two transmission shafts, namely a first transmission shaft 51a and a second transmission shaft 51b, and two transmission gears, namely a first transmission gear 52a and a second transmission gear 52b, two transmission gears correspond to two transmission shafts, two transmission shafts are distributed in the transfer case body 1 and parallel to the power input shaft 2, the first transmission gear 52a is coaxially fixedly installed on the first transmission shaft 51a and meshed with the input gear 21, the second oil stirring gear 7 is coaxially rotatably installed on the first transmission shaft 51a and meshed with the first oil stirring gear 4, the second transmission gear 52b is coaxially fixedly installed on the second transmission shaft 51b and meshed with the first transmission gear 52a, and the first umbrella gear 53 is coaxially fixedly installed on the second transmission shaft 51b, so that the structure of the transfer case is more compact, and the diameter of the transmission gear is smaller, which is beneficial to reducing the height of the transfer case body.

The diameter of the first transmission gear is slightly larger than the diameter of the input gear.
[0039] In the above technical solution, d3:d2=0.96-0.98:1, preferably d3:d2=0.96:1; d5:d4=1.05-1.1:1, preferably d5:d4=1.06:1, which can realize speed reduction transmission and make the rotation speed of the power output shaft slightly lower than the rotation speed of the power input shaft.
[0040] As shown in Figure 3 Preferably, the horizontal height of the power output shaft and the two transmission shafts can be consistent, and the horizontal height of the power input shaft and the horizontal height of the transmission shaft.
[0041] The lower end of the first oil stirring gear is partially immersed in the lubricating oil in the transfer case body.
