Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of wheel-side speed reduction devices, and more specifically, to a wheel-side speed reduction device. Background Technology
[0002] Wheel-end reduction gears are devices installed on vehicles to increase their driving force. They are designed to meet or correct the driving force of the vehicle's transmission system. The wheel-end reduction gears are installed at both ends of the vehicle's drive axle and then connected to the wheels, thereby further increasing the driving force of the wheels.
[0003] For electric mining dump trucks, wheel-side reduction gears are typically installed to increase the driving force of the motor on the wheels. These wheel-side reduction gears use planetary gear reducers, which consist of a sun gear, planet carrier, planet gears, and a hub. The hub has a gear ring inside that meshes with the planet gears. The sun gear is coaxially fixed to the motor's output shaft, and the planet gears mesh with it. The planet carrier is relatively fixed to the motor. When the motor is working, the motor's output shaft drives the sun gear to rotate, which in turn drives the planet gears to rotate, thus rotating the hub. During the power transmission process, the planetary gear reducer lowers the motor's speed, increasing the driving force on the wheels.
[0004] However, in the above structure, since the total mass of the mining dump truck is large after hauling goods, when using a planetary gear reducer, the wheel hub is supported by the planetary gears. Thus, the planetary gears not only bear the role of transmitting torque, but also need to carry the goods. This can easily lead to greater wear on the transmission components in the wheel-side reduction device and a shorter service life. Summary of the Invention

[0039] This invention provides a wheel-side speed reduction device; please refer to [the relevant documentation]. Figures 1 to 7 The wheel-side reduction gear includes an axle housing assembly 10, a mounting wheel assembly 20, a load-bearing assembly 30, a drive assembly, a rolling element assembly, and a bearing assembly. The axle housing assembly 10 has an assembly space 101; the mounting wheel assembly 20 has an installation space 201; the load-bearing assembly 30 is disposed within the installation space 201, with a portion of the load-bearing assembly 30 located between the axle housing assembly 10 and the mounting wheel assembly 20; a portion of the drive assembly is installed within the assembly space 101, and another portion of the drive assembly is installed within the installation space 201; the drive assembly is drive-connected to the mounting wheel assembly 20, and the drive assembly is also drive-connected to the load-bearing assembly 30. A dynamic connection is provided so that the drive assembly simultaneously drives the mounting wheel assembly 20 and the load-bearing assembly 30 to rotate in opposite directions; the rotation axis of the mounting wheel assembly 20 and the rotation axis of the load-bearing assembly 30 coincide; a roller assembly is disposed between the mounting wheel assembly 20 and the load-bearing assembly 30 so that the mounting wheel assembly 20 and the load-bearing assembly 30 can rotate relative to each other under the action of the roller assembly, thereby allowing the mounting wheel assembly 20 and the load-bearing assembly 30 to rotate in opposite directions; a bearing assembly is disposed between the load-bearing assembly 30 and the bridge housing assembly 10 so that the load-bearing assembly 30 can rotate relative to the bridge housing assembly 10.
[0040] The wheel-side reduction gear of this application adds a load-bearing component 30, which is supported on the axle housing assembly 10 by a bearing assembly. The mounting wheel assembly 20 is rotatably connected to the load-bearing component 30 through a rolling assembly. This allows the load-bearing force of the mounting wheel assembly 20 to be transferred to the axle housing assembly 10 through the load-bearing component 30 and the bearing assembly, thereby reducing the load on the drive assembly, i.e., reducing the load on the mounting wheel assembly 20 acting on the drive assembly. In a wheel-side reduction gear, the drive assembly necessarily includes transmission components. Therefore, the wheel-side reduction gear of this application can reduce the load on the transmission components, thereby reducing wear on these components and improving their service life. It is evident that the wheel-side reduction gear of this application solves the problem of excessive wear and short service life in existing wheel-side reduction gears due to the weight-bearing requirements of the transmission components.
[0041] Specifically, the wheel-side reduction device is a wheel-side reduction device for the electric wheels of mining dump trucks, and the wheel assembly 20 is used to fix the wheels of the dump truck.
[0042] In this embodiment, the mounting wheel assembly 20 includes a mounting wheel 21 and an anti-detachment bracket 22 detachably connected to the mounting wheel 21. When the mounting wheel 21 and the anti-detachment bracket 22 are connected, they are relatively fixed. The mounting wheel 21 is necessarily an annular structure, and its rotation axis is the rotation axis of the mounting wheel assembly 20. The drive assembly is connected to the mounting wheel 21 so that it drives the mounting wheel 21 to rotate, and the mounting wheel 21 drives the anti-detachment bracket 22 to rotate synchronously. The rolling assembly includes a rolling component 41 and a first roller 42. The rolling component 41 is disposed between the mounting wheel 21 and the bearing assembly 30 so that the mounting wheel 21 and the bearing assembly 30 can rotate relative to each other, thereby allowing the mounting wheel 21 and the bearing assembly 30 to rotate in opposite directions. The first roller 42 is disposed between the anti-detachment bracket 22 and the bearing assembly 30 so that the anti-detachment bracket 22 and the bearing assembly 30 can rotate relative to each other, thereby allowing the anti-detachment bracket 22 and the bearing assembly 30 to rotate in opposite directions.
[0043] Specifically, the mounting wheel 21 is used to fix the wheels of the dump truck, and the drive assembly drives the mounting wheel 21 so that the dump truck can move.
[0044] Specifically, the anti-detachment frame 22 is installed on the outside of the load-bearing component 30.
[0045] Specifically, the mounting wheel 21 and the anti-detachment bracket 22 are connected by bolts.
[0046] In this embodiment, the mounting wheel 21 has an annular mounting groove 211, which is arranged around the rotation axis of the mounting wheel 21. The rolling element component 41 includes a support frame 412 and a plurality of rolling elements 411, which are spaced apart circumferentially along the mounting groove 211. Each rolling element 411 is rotatably mounted on the support frame 412, and the rotation axis of each rolling element 411 is parallel to the rotation axis of the mounting wheel 21. At least a portion of each rolling element 411 is located within the mounting groove 211 along the radial direction of each rolling element 411.
[0047] Specifically, each roller 411 is a cylindrical structure, and the central axis of each roller 411 is its axis of rotation. When the mounting wheel assembly 20 and the bearing assembly 30 rotate in opposite directions, each roller 411 rotates around its central axis under the combined action of the mounting wheel 21 and the bearing assembly 30, and also revolves around the axis of rotation of the bearing assembly 30. During the revolving process of the roller 411 around the axis of rotation of the bearing assembly 30, the force borne by the roller 411 changes periodically. When the mounting wheel assembly 20 and the bearing assembly 30 rotate in opposite directions, the period of change of the force borne by the roller 411 is lengthened, which makes it less likely for the roller 411 to reach its yield strength during operation, thereby improving the service life of the roller 411.
[0048] Specifically, each roller 411 is disposed between the mounting wheel 21 and the bearing assembly 30; that is, the outer peripheral wall of each roller 411 is in contact with the groove wall of the mounting groove 211, and the outer peripheral wall of each roller 411 is in contact with the bearing assembly 30.
[0049] Specifically, the support frame 412 is a ring structure, and the support frame 412 is set in the mounting groove 211. The support frame 412 is arranged around the rotation axis of the mounting wheel 21; the support frame 412 is fixedly connected to the groove wall of the mounting groove 211.
[0050] Specifically, the mounting slot 211 is connected to the mounting space 201.
[0051] Specifically, the support frame 412 includes two support plates 4121 arranged opposite to each other. Both support plates 4121 are annular structures and are arranged around the rotation axis of the mounting wheel 21. Both support plates 4121 are fixedly connected to the groove wall of the mounting groove 211. Each roller 411 is arranged between the two support plates 4121 and is rotatably connected to the two support plates 4121.
[0052] Specifically, the connection between each roller 411 and the two support plates 4121 is as follows: along the axial direction of the mounting wheel 21, the roller 411 has two oppositely arranged ends; both ends of the roller 411 are provided with a convex shaft 4111, and each support plate 4121 is provided with a connecting hole. The convex shafts 4111 at both ends of the roller 411 are rotatably inserted into the connecting holes on the two support plates 4121, and the central axis of the convex shafts 4111 at both ends of the roller 411 coincides with the rotation axis of the roller 411, so that the roller 411 can rotate relative to the two support plates 4121.
[0053] Furthermore, each support plate 4121 is provided with multiple connecting holes, and the multiple connecting holes on each support plate 4121 are provided one-to-one with multiple rollers 411, so that the convex shafts 4111 at both ends of each roller 411 can be rotatably passed through the corresponding connecting holes on the two support plates 4121.
[0054] Optionally, the convex shaft 4111 at each end of each roller 411 protrudes from the corresponding connecting hole to abut against the groove wall of the mounting groove 211; the convex shaft 4111 at each end of each roller 411 is rotatably arranged relative to the groove wall of the mounting groove 211; in this way, the axial movement of each roller 411 can be reduced and the stability of the roller 411 can be improved.
[0055] Specifically, for each roller 411, the diameter of the roller 411 is greater than the depth of the mounting groove 211, so that a portion of the roller 411 is outside the mounting groove 211 so that the roller 411 contacts the carrier assembly 30.
[0056] Specifically, along the circumferential direction of the support frame 412, each support plate 4121 includes a plurality of support plate segments 4122 connected in sequence.
[0057] Furthermore, in each support plate 4121, the lengths of the multiple support plate segments 4122 are all equal, and the number of rollers 411 distributed on each support plate segment 4122 is all equal.
[0058] Furthermore, the number of support plate segments 4122 of the two support plates 4121 is equal.
[0059] In this embodiment, the bridge housing assembly 10 includes a bridge housing 11 and a support ring 12. The bridge housing 11 has a cavity 111. The bridge housing 11 and the support ring 12 are fixedly connected, and the cavity 111 and the annular hole 121 of the support ring 12 communicate to form an assembly space 101. A flange portion 13 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the bridge housing 11, and the flange portion 13 is fixed relative to the bridge housing 11. The bearing assembly includes a bearing 51 and a second roller 52. The bearing 51 is disposed between the bearing assembly 30 and the support ring 12 so that the bearing assembly 30 can rotate relative to the support ring 12. The second roller 52 is disposed between the bearing assembly 30 and the flange portion 13 so that the bearing assembly 30 can rotate relative to the bridge housing 11.
[0060] Bearing 51 is a load-bearing bearing. The load-bearing assembly 30 is supported on the axle housing assembly 10 through bearing 51 and second roller 52. Mounting wheel 21 is rotatably connected to the load-bearing assembly 30 through rolling element 41. That is, the load-bearing force of mounting wheel 21 acts on the load-bearing assembly 30, so that the load-bearing force of mounting wheel 21 can be transmitted to the axle housing 11 through the load-bearing assembly 30, bearing 51 and support ring 12. At the same time, it can also be transmitted to the axle housing 11 through the load-bearing assembly 30 and second roller 52 to reduce the load-bearing force on the drive assembly.
[0061] Specifically, the axle housing 11 is used to support the cargo box of the dump truck.
[0062] Specifically, the outer circumferential surface of the support ring 12 must be a cylindrical surface, and the central axis of the outer circumferential surface of the support ring 12 coincides with the rotation axis of the mounting wheel 21. The central axis of the outer circumferential surface of the support ring 12 is the central axis of the support ring 12.
[0063] Specifically, the support ring 12 is a cylinder with a through-center.
[0064] Specifically, the bearing 51 is mounted on the outer peripheral wall of the support ring 12.
[0065] Specifically, bearing 51 is a cylindrical roller bearing or a double-row ball bearing to improve load-bearing capacity.
[0066] In this embodiment, the outer peripheral surface of the bridge housing 11 is a cylindrical surface; the flange portion 13 is an annular structure arranged around the central axis of the outer peripheral surface of the bridge housing 11; the central axis of the outer peripheral surface of the bridge housing 11 coincides with the rotation axis of the mounting wheel 21. Figure 2 The first outer peripheral surface 112 is the outer peripheral surface.
[0067] Along the extension direction of the central axis of the outer peripheral surface of the bridge housing 11, the bridge housing 11 has a first end and a second end that are disposed opposite to each other; the support ring 12 is connected to the second end of the bridge housing 11; the cavity 111 extends to the second end face of the bridge housing 11 so that the cavity 111 is connected to the annular hole 121.
[0068] The flange portion 13 has an annular first contact surface 131, which is disposed around the central axis of the outer peripheral surface of the bridge housing 11. From the first end to the second end of the bridge housing 11, the first contact surface 131 gradually moves away from the central axis of the outer peripheral surface of the bridge housing 11, so that the first contact surface 131 is an inclined surface that is inclined relative to the central axis of the outer peripheral surface of the bridge housing 11. The bearing assembly 30 has a second contact surface 31. Along the distribution direction of the first end and the second end of the bridge housing 11, and from the second end to the first end of the bridge housing 11, the first contact surface 131 is offset by a first distance to coincide with the second contact surface 31, that is, the tapers of the first contact surface 131 and the second contact surface 31 are equal. A second roller 52 is disposed between the first contact surface 131 and the second contact surface 31.
[0069] Specifically, the bridge housing 11 is a cylindrical structure, and the axial direction of the bridge housing 11 is the same as the distribution direction of the first end and the second end of the bridge housing 11.
[0070] In this embodiment, a connecting portion 14 is provided on the axle housing 11, and the support ring 12 is fixedly connected to the connecting portion 14; the wheel-side reduction device also includes a mounting bracket 71 fixedly connected to the support ring 12; along the axial direction of the bearing 51, the connecting portion 14 and the mounting bracket 71 are respectively located on both sides of the support ring 12; the axial direction of the bearing 51 is the same as the axial direction of the support ring 12. In a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the bearing 51, a portion of the connecting portion 14 is located on the side of the outer peripheral surface of the support ring 12 away from the central axis of the support ring 12, and a portion of the mounting bracket 71 is located on the side of the outer peripheral surface of the support ring 12 away from the central axis of the support ring 12, so that both the connecting portion 14 and the mounting bracket 71 can contact the bearing 51, thereby enabling the connecting portion 14 and the mounting bracket 71 to act as a locking mechanism on the bearing 51 in the axial direction, thus achieving the positioning of the bearing 51 in the axial direction.
[0071] In this embodiment, a connecting portion 14 is provided at the second end of the bridge housing 11; by passing a fastener 15 through the connecting portion 14 and the support ring 12, the connecting portion 14 and the support ring 12 are fixedly connected, thereby fixing the bridge housing 11 to the support ring 12 through the connecting portion 14. Optionally, the fastener 15 is a bolt, and the fastener 15 is threadedly connected to the support ring 12.
[0072] Specifically, along the distribution direction of the first and second ends of the bridge housing 11, the side of the connecting portion 14 away from the first end of the bridge housing 11 is flush with the second end face of the bridge housing 11.
[0073] Specifically, along the distribution direction of the first end and the second end of the bridge housing 11, the side of the connecting portion 14 away from the first end of the bridge housing 11 is the first side surface; along the axial direction of the support ring 12, the support ring 12 has a first end and a second end that are disposed opposite to each other; the first end of the support ring 12 is fixedly connected to the connecting portion 14, and the first end face of the support ring 12 is in contact with the first side surface of the connecting portion 14.
[0074] Specifically, the connecting part 14 is an annular structure arranged around the central axis of the outer peripheral surface of the bridge housing 11; along the direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the bridge housing 11, the outer peripheral surface of the support ring 12 is located on the side of the outer peripheral surface of the connecting part 14 that is closer to the central axis of the outer peripheral surface of the bridge housing 11, that is, the outer diameter of the support ring 12 is smaller than the outer diameter of the connecting part 14, so that the connecting part 14 can play a blocking effect on the bearing 51 in the axial direction of the bridge housing 11.
[0075] Specifically, there are multiple fasteners 15, which are distributed at intervals along the circumferential direction of the support ring 12.
[0076] Specifically, the bridge shell 11, the connecting part 14, and the flange part 13 are integrally formed structures.
[0077] Optionally, the connecting part 14 is a flange.
[0078] Specifically, both the first contact surface 131 and the second contact surface 31 are conical surfaces.
[0079] Specifically, the connecting portion 14 and the flange portion 13 are spaced apart along the axial direction of the bridge housing 11; the distance between the connecting portion 14 and the flange portion 13 in the axial direction of the bridge housing 11 is greater than the axial length of the fastener 15, so that the fastener 15 can be inserted from between the connecting portion 14 and the flange portion 13 onto the connecting portion 14.
[0080] In this embodiment, the bearing assembly 30 has an annular third contact surface 32 arranged around the rotation axis of the mounting wheel 21; along the axial direction of the mounting wheel 21, i.e., from the first end to the second end of the bridge housing 11, the third contact surface 32 gradually moves away from the rotation axis of the mounting wheel 21. The anti-slip bracket 22 has a fourth contact surface 221; along the axial direction of the mounting wheel 21 and from the second end to the first end of the bridge housing 11, the third contact surface 32 is offset by a second distance to coincide with the fourth contact surface 221, i.e., the tapers of the third contact surface 32 and the fourth contact surface 221 are equal; a first roller 42 is disposed between the third contact surface 32 and the fourth contact surface 221.
[0081] Specifically, both the third contact surface 32 and the fourth contact surface 221 are conical surfaces.
[0082] Through the cooperation of the first contact surface 131 and the second contact surface 31, and the cooperation of the third contact surface 32 and the fourth contact surface 221, the flange portion 13 can block the load-bearing assembly 30 and the anti-detachment bracket 22 from moving from the first end to the second end of the bridge housing 11, thereby blocking the mounting wheel 21 from moving from the first end to the second end of the bridge housing 11, thus preventing the mounting wheel 21 from moving axially; that is, the flange portion 13 is a retaining ring.
[0083] In this embodiment, the drive assembly includes a drive motor 61, a first bevel gear 62, a second bevel gear 63, and a third bevel gear 64. The drive motor 61 is fixedly connected to the first bevel gear 62, and the central axis of the output shaft of the drive motor 61 coincides with the central axis of the first bevel gear 62, so the drive motor 61 drives the first bevel gear 62 to rotate synchronously. The first bevel gear 62 is a driving bevel gear. The second bevel gear 63 meshes with the first bevel gear 62, and the central axis of the second bevel gear 63 is perpendicular to the central axis of the first bevel gear 62, so the first bevel gear 62 drives the second bevel gear 63 to rotate. The third bevel gear 64 is fixedly connected to the second bevel gear 63, and the central axis of the third bevel gear 64 coincides with the central axis of the second bevel gear 63, so the second bevel gear 63 drives the third bevel gear 64 to rotate synchronously. The bearing assembly 30 includes a first transmission bevel gear 33 and a mounting wheel assembly. 20 includes a second transmission bevel gear 23; both the first transmission bevel gear 33 and the second transmission bevel gear 23 mesh with the third bevel gear 64 for transmission. The first transmission bevel gear 33 and the second transmission bevel gear 23 are located on opposite sides of the third bevel gear 64, so that the third bevel gear 64 simultaneously drives the first transmission bevel gear 33 and the second transmission bevel gear 23 to rotate in opposite directions. The first transmission bevel gear 33 drives the bearing assembly 30 to rotate, and the second transmission bevel gear 23 drives the mounting wheel assembly 20 to rotate. The central axis of the first transmission bevel gear 33 and the central axis of the second transmission bevel gear 23 coincide. The central axis of the first transmission bevel gear 33 and the central axis of the second transmission bevel gear 23 are both perpendicular to the central axis of the third bevel gear 64. The central axis of the first transmission bevel gear 33 and the central axis of the second transmission bevel gear 23 coincide with the central axis of the first bevel gear 62. Specifically, the drive motor 61 drives the bearing assembly 30 to rotate via the first bevel gear 62, the second bevel gear 63, the third bevel gear 64, and the first transmission bevel gear 33. The drive motor 61 also drives the mounting wheel assembly 20 to rotate via the first bevel gear 62, the second bevel gear 63, the third bevel gear 64, and the second transmission bevel gear 23. Both the first transmission bevel gear 33 and the second transmission bevel gear 23 are second transmission bevel gears 23.
[0084] The diameter of the outer circumference of the second transmission bevel gear 23 is larger than the diameter of the outer circumference of the first bevel gear 62. That is, due to the power transmission of the second bevel gear 63 and the third bevel gear 64, the diameter of the second transmission bevel gear 23 is larger than the diameter of the first bevel gear 62. This allows the rotational speed to decrease during the transmission from the drive motor 61 to the mounting wheel 21, thus achieving deceleration. This increases the driving force on the mounting wheel 21, thereby increasing the driving force on the dump truck.
[0085] Specifically, the central axis of the first bevel gear 62 coincides with the central axis of the outer circumferential surface of the bridge housing 11, that is, the central axis of the first bevel gear 62 coincides with the rotation axis of the mounting wheel 21.
[0086] Specifically, the diameter of the outer circumferential surface of the first transmission bevel gear 33 is greater than the diameter of the outer circumferential surface of the first bevel gear 62.
[0087] Specifically, the diameter of the outer circumferential surface of the second bevel gear 63 is larger than the diameter of the outer circumferential surface of the first bevel gear 62, and the diameter of the outer circumferential surface of the second bevel gear 63 is larger than the diameter of the outer circumferential surface of the third bevel gear 64, so that when the rotational speed of the first bevel gear 62 is transmitted to the second transmission bevel gear 23 through the second bevel gear 63 and the third bevel gear 64, there can be a greater deceleration effect.
[0088] Specifically, the wheel-side reduction gear also includes a mounting bracket 71 disposed in the mounting space 201, the mounting bracket 71 being fixedly connected to the axle housing assembly 10; the mounting bracket 71 has a mounting hole 711; the drive assembly also includes a connecting shaft 65, the connecting shaft 65 being fixedly connected to the second bevel gear 63 and the third bevel gear 64, so that the second bevel gear 63 is fixedly connected to the third bevel gear 64 through the connecting shaft 65; the central axis of the connecting shaft 65 coincides with the central axis of the second bevel gear 63, and the central axis of the connecting shaft 65 coincides with the central axis of the third bevel gear 64; the connecting shaft 65 is rotatably inserted into the mounting hole 711 about its central axis.

The clamping seat 73 abuts against the third bevel gear 64. The surface of the clamping seat 73 facing the tapered needle roller bearing 72 is also a conical surface.
[0094] Specifically, the connecting shaft 65 passes through the second fixing hole 641, and the nut 74 is threaded onto the connecting shaft 65 and abuts against the third bevel gear 64, so as to further fix the connecting shaft 65 and the third bevel gear 64 through the nut 74, and press the third bevel gear 64 and the clamping seat 73 together.

[0139] As can be seen from the above description, the embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects:
[0140] 1. In use, the drive motor 61 drives the mounting wheel 21 to rotate through the first bevel gear 62, the second bevel gear 63, the third bevel gear 64, and the second transmission bevel gear 23. The mounting wheel 21 is used for bearing load. When the mounting wheel 21 is bearing load, it is rotatably connected to the fourth bearing part 304 under the action of the roller 411. The fourth bearing part 304 is rotatably connected to the support ring 12 through the second bearing part 302. The bearing force of the mounting wheel 21 is applied to the fourth bearing part 304, and the bearing force of the fourth bearing part 304 is transmitted to the axle housing 11 through the second bearing part 302 and the bearing 51. The first bearing part 301 positions the bearing assembly 30 on the axle housing 11, thereby reducing the transmission of the bearing force of the mounting wheel 21 to the axle housing 11 through the bevel gear assembly, thereby reducing the wear of each bevel gear in the bevel gear assembly and improving the service life of each bevel gear. The bevel gear assembly includes the first bevel gear 62, the second bevel gear 63, the third bevel gear 64, and the second transmission bevel gear 23.
[0141] 2. The drive motor 61 drives the second bevel gear 63 through the first bevel gear 62. The second bevel gear 63 and the third bevel gear 64 rotate coaxially, thereby causing the third bevel gear 64 to drive the second transmission bevel gear 23, which in turn enables the mounting wheel 21 to rotate under the drive of the second transmission bevel gear 23. Moreover, in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the first bevel gear 62, the third bevel gear 64 is located on the side of the second bevel gear 63 away from the central axis of the first bevel gear 62, thereby reducing the speed of the drive of the first bevel gear 62, the second bevel gear 63 and the third bevel gear 64 on the second transmission bevel gear 23 and increasing the driving force on the mounting wheel 21.
[0142] 3. The diameter of the outer circumference of the second bevel gear 63 is greater than the diameter of the outer circumference of the first bevel gear 62, so that the second bevel gear 63 has the function of deceleration and torque increase when it comes to the first bevel gear 62; at the same time, the diameter of the second bevel gear 63 is greater than the diameter of the third bevel gear 64, so that there can be a larger transmission ratio between the second bevel gear 63 and the second transmission bevel gear 23.
[0143] 4. A connecting shaft 65 is coaxially mounted on the second bevel gear 63. During installation, the connecting shaft 65 is inserted into the mounting hole 711, and then the clamping seat 73 is fitted on. Tapered needle roller bearings 72 are provided between the clamping seat 73 and the mounting bracket 71, and between the mounting bracket 71 and the connecting shaft 65. When the nut 74 is installed on the connecting shaft 65, the clamping seat 73 adjusts the position of the connecting shaft 65 so that the connecting shaft 65 is stably connected to the mounting bracket 71 in its radial direction.
[0144] 5. The outer diameter of the support ring 12 is smaller than the outer diameter of the flange. During installation, the bearing 51 is first placed on the support ring 12 so that the mounting bracket 71 abuts against one end face of the bearing 51. Then the support ring 12 is fixed on the flange. At this time, the other end face of the bearing 51 can abut against the flange, thereby achieving axial positioning of the bearing 51.
[0145] 6. The locking element 16 is used to connect the support ring 12 and the mounting bracket 71, so that the second bevel gear 63 and the third bevel gear 64 can be installed on the mounting bracket 71 first, thereby facilitating the installation of the transmission mechanism 70; at the same time, by setting the fastener 15 on the flange, the bearing 51 on the support ring 12 can be easily installed between the flange and the mounting bracket 71.
[0146] 7. The bearing assembly 30 includes a first transmission bevel gear 33. When the first transmission bevel gear 33 and the second transmission bevel gear 23 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the third bevel gear 64, the rotation of the third bevel gear 64 can drive the first transmission bevel gear 33 to rotate in the opposite direction relative to the second transmission bevel gear 23. This can increase the revolution period of the roller 411 installed between the bearing assembly 30 and the mounting wheel 21, reduce or avoid damage to the roller 411 due to reaching its yield strength, and improve the service life of the roller 411.
[0147] 8. A first roller 42 is provided between the fourth contact surface 221 on the anti-detachment bracket 22 and the third contact surface 32 of the first bearing part 301, and a second roller 52 is provided between the second contact surface 31 of the first bearing part 301 and the first contact surface 131 of the flange part 13, so that the anti-detachment bracket 22 can position the mounting wheel 21 along the direction from the first end to the second end of the bridge housing 11, reducing the movement of the mounting wheel 21 on the bridge housing 11.
[0148] 9. The smaller diameter end of the third bevel gear 64 is positioned towards the second bevel gear 63, so that the outer side of the second transmission bevel gear 23 meshes with the third bevel gear 64, which facilitates the machining of the second transmission bevel gear 23 and reduces the transmission of load from the second transmission bevel gear 23 to the third bevel gear 64.
[0149] 10. Place the roller 411 into the mounting groove 211 to reduce the axial movement of the roller 411 and improve the stability of the roller 411; at the same time, the roller 411 can transmit a larger load and reduce the damage to the roller 411.
