Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a high reduction ratio reduction device, belonging to the field of mechanical gear transmission. Background Art

[0002] Gear transmission is the most important speed matching device in industry, featuring stable transmission and accurate reduction ratio. Gear transmission mainly includes parallel-axis cylindrical gears, bevel gears, planetary internal meshing gears, etc. According to the characteristics of the helix angle, it can also be divided into spur gears, helical gears, herringbone gears, etc. Parallel-axis cylindrical gears are the most widely used due to their relatively simple structure and easy manufacturing. Bevel gears are mainly used in occasions with the need for reversing transmission. Planetary internal meshing gear transmission has a high power density due to the coaxial input and output and large reduction ratio. By combining various parallel-axis cylindrical gears, bevel gears, and planetary internal meshing gear transmissions, various transmission characteristics can be taken into account.

[0003] In the existing planetary high reduction ratio reducer on the market, the first stage has a fixed ring gear, a sun gear input, and a planetary carrier output. The first-stage planetary carrier is connected to the second-stage sun gear. The second-stage ring gear is fixed, and the second-stage planetary carrier outputs. Since the reduction ratio of a single-stage planet is limited, multi-stage reduction is required to achieve high reduction ratio reduction, making the structure relatively complex and the reliability insufficient. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problems of the complex structure and insufficient reliability of the existing planetary high reduction ratio reducer, and a high reduction ratio reduction device based on bevel gear commutation is proposed.

[0005] A high reduction ratio reduction device based on bevel gear commutation, characterized in that the device includes an input bevel gear shaft, 2 first conversion bevel gears, 2 second conversion bevel gears, 2 torsion shafts, a bevel gear ring assembly, multiple planetary gears, a planetary carrier, a sun gear, and a central transmission rod;

[0006] The input bevel gear shaft serves as the input end of the reduction device. Both 2 first conversion bevel gears are meshed with the input bevel gear shaft. One first conversion bevel gear and one second conversion bevel gear are sleeved on one torsion shaft, and the first conversion bevel gear and the second conversion bevel gear on one torsion shaft have the same helix direction;

[0007] The bevel gear of the bevel gear ring assembly is simultaneously meshed with 2 second conversion bevel gears, and the bevel gear of the bevel gear ring assembly has a helix direction opposite to that of the input bevel gear shaft; the sun gear is connected to the input bevel gear shaft through the central transmission rod and has the same helix direction, and the planetary gears are simultaneously meshed with the internal teeth of the ring gear of the bevel gear ring assembly and the sun gear;

[0008] The planet carrier is used to support multiple planet gears simultaneously; the support shaft of the planet carrier is rotationally connected to each planet gear through a support bearing; the planet carrier serves as the output end of the reduction device;

[0009] The speed ratio i of the input bevel gear shaft to the planet carrier OH :

[0010]

[0011] In the formula, Z 1 is the number of teeth of the input bevel gear shaft, Z 2 is the number of teeth of the first conversion bevel gear, Z 3 is the number of teeth of the second conversion bevel gear, Z 4 is the number of teeth of the bevel gear in the bevel gear ring assembly, Z 5 is the number of teeth of the gear ring in the bevel gear ring assembly, Z 6 is the number of teeth of the planet gear, Z 7 is the number of teeth of the sun gear.

[0012] Preferably, the specific process of obtaining the speed ratio i of the input bevel gear shaft to the planet carrier OH is as follows:

[0013] Based on the speed ratio of the input bevel gear shaft to the first conversion bevel gear, the speed ratio of the second conversion bevel gear to the bevel gear ring assembly, and the rotational speed of the input bevel gear shaft, the rotational speed of the bevel gear ring assembly is obtained; based on the rotational speed of the bevel gear ring assembly, the number of teeth of the gear ring in the bevel gear ring assembly, and the module of the planet gear planetary gear train, the pitch circle linear velocity of the gear ring in the bevel gear ring assembly is obtained;

[0014] Based on the rotational speed of the input bevel gear shaft, the module of the planet gear planetary gear train, and the number of teeth of the sun gear, the pitch circle linear velocity of the sun gear (8) is obtained;

[0015] Based on the pitch circle linear velocity of the gear ring in the bevel gear ring assembly and the pitch circle linear velocity of the sun gear, the center line velocity of the planet gear is obtained;

[0016] Based on the center line velocity of the planet gear and the center radius of the planet carrier, the rotational speed of the planet carrier is obtained;

[0017] Based on the rotational speed of the planet carrier and the rotational speed of the input bevel gear shaft, the speed ratio i of the input bevel gear shaft to the planet carrier is obtained OH .

[0018] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0019] Taking the input bevel gear shaft as the input end, after two-stage bevel gear reduction and reverse conversion to the planet carrier, the sun gear of the planetary gear train is connected to the input bevel gear shaft through a transmission rod, and the planet carrier serves as the output end of the entire large speed ratio reduction device. At this time, the sun gear and the gear ring rotate in opposite directions, thereby obtaining a large speed ratio transmission between the planet carrier and the sun gear.

[0020] The reverse rotation of the sun gear and the ring gear of the planetary gear train is achieved by bevel gear transmission, realizing a large speed ratio transmission between the planet carrier and the sun gear. It has a high degree of structural integration and strong load-bearing capacity. The present invention can be widely applied to high-power and large speed ratio transmission fields such as ships and metallurgy.

[0021] By using two first conversion bevel gears with opposite helix directions, the speed ratio of the internal planetary gear transmission is significantly increased, and then a design scheme of a large speed ratio reduction device is obtained.

[0022] By using the corresponding second conversion bevel gears that are bilaterally meshed with the two first conversion bevel gears, the reverse rotation of the gear and the sun gear is achieved through the commutation of the two second conversion bevel gears, enabling the speed of the planet carrier to be extremely low, which is completely different from the prior art principle. Secondly, the present application uses the commutation function of the bevel gear to reverse the ring gear and the sun gear of the planet to reduce the speed of the planet carrier, and through tooth matching, the planet carrier can rotate forward or backward when the ring gear and the sun gear reverse, realizing a large forward or reverse speed ratio, and the speed of the planet carrier can tend to zero, thus obtaining an extremely large reduction ratio.

[0023] Therefore, the present application uses bevel gear transmission to achieve the reverse rotation of the sun gear and the ring gear of the planetary gear train, realizing a large speed ratio transmission between the planet carrier and the sun gear. It has a high degree of structural integration, strong load-bearing capacity and high reliability. The present application can be widely applied to high-power and large speed ratio transmission fields such as ships and metallurgy, with a wide range of applications.

[0075] It can be seen from the above formula that by matching the teeth, when the difference between Z 5 ·Z 1 ·Z 3 and Z 7 ·Z 2 ·Z 4 is smaller, n H is lower, and a larger speed ratio can be obtained. When Z 7 ·Z2 ·Z 4 -Z 5 ·Z 1 ·Z 3 When it is negative, the planet carrier 7 will reverse. Therefore, this device can not only achieve high reduction ratio deceleration with the same rotation direction of input and output, but also achieve high reduction ratio deceleration with opposite rotation directions of input and output.
