Detailed Implementation

[0028] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention or the prior art, the drawings used in the description of the embodiments or the prior art will be briefly introduced below. Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown: A spray system inside a cutting reducer is compatible with the left and right symmetrical structure of the cutting reducer; the cutting reducer uses symmetrical dual main drive shafts for power transmission, and the two main drive shafts 28 on both sides are connected by a central planetary section; the two separate main drive shafts 28 are synchronized through the central planetary section, and the length of a single main drive shaft inside the cutting reducer is halved, which is more conducive to manufacturing and processing.

[0030] The planet carrier 5 in the middle planetary section is coaxial with the main drive shafts 28 on both sides but there is no torque change. That is, the planet carrier 5 remains stationary when the main drive shafts 28 rotate. The planet carrier 5 is connected to the middle support 2 of the inner spray system. The middle internal gear ring 3 on the main drive shafts 28 on both sides meshes with the planet gear 6 on the planet carrier 5. The planet carrier 5 is stationary. The synchronization of the main drive shafts 28 on both sides is achieved through the planet gear 6 and the internal gear ring 3.

[0031] Bearing 7 is mounted on planetary shaft 8 to support planetary gear 6. Planetary shaft 8 is mounted on planetary carrier 5. Planetary gear 6 meshes with internal gear ring 3 (left and right parts) to complete the power transmission.

[0032] The center of the main drive shaft 28 is provided with a through first channel A3. The input channel A1 of the internal spray system is located inside the intermediate arm 1 of the reducer. The input channel A1 is connected to the first channel A3 of the two main drive shafts through the bidirectional channel A2 in the planetary carrier 5. The outlet of the first channel A3 is provided with a diversion mechanism. The first outlet of the diversion mechanism is connected to the cooling water input channel of the side drum of the cutting reducer, and the second outlet is connected to the cooling water input channel of the intermediate drum of the cutting reducer.

[0033] like Figure 3 As shown: The main drive shaft 28 has two separate concentric tubes installed in its shaft center channel. The center of the inner tube is the first channel A3. One end of the inner tube is sealed to the planetary carrier 5, and the other end is sealed to the inlet of the diverter mechanism. One end of the outer tube is sealed to the wall of the shaft center channel, and the other end is sealed to the second outlet of the diverter mechanism. The gap between the outer tube and the wall of the shaft center channel is the second channel B2. The outer tube rotates with the main drive shaft 28, while the inner tube remains stationary. The second channel B2 is connected to the cooling water input channel of the intermediate drum of the cutting reducer through the connecting shaft 27.

The outer ring of the cover I22 and the shaft center hole are sealed by the seal V19. The seal V19 is installed in the groove of the outer ring of the cover I22, and the cover I22 blocks the second channel B2.

[0036] The center hole of cover II20 is sealed to the inner tube. A third channel B1 is provided between cover I22, cover II20 and cover III24, which connects to the second channel B2 from the center hole of cover III24. Cover I22, cover II20 and cover III24 are assembled together by screws 21, and the screw holes are offset from the third channel B1. The diversion mechanism is assembled to the end of the main drive shaft 28 through cover IV25. The center holes of cover III24 and cover IV25 are sealed together, and the cooling water input channel of the cutting reducer side drum is connected to the center hole of cover IV25.

[0037] Both caps I22 and III24 have a central hole, and around the central hole are screw holes and through holes. The through holes of both are aligned to extend the third channel B1.

[0038] Cooling water is diverted at the first channel A3 by combining cover I22, cover II20 and cover III24, which minimizes the processing difficulty of parts, reduces the sealing diameter, and ensures the reliability of the internal spray system.

[0039] The end face of the cover I22, which is close to the cover II20, has a groove and is fitted with a seal VI23. The protruding retaining ring on the cover I22 presses against the seal VI23 to restrict its axial movement.

[0040] The cooling water for the internal spray system enters from the input channel A1, and reaches the branch point of the internal spray system water channel through the bidirectional channel A2 and the first channel A3. The first channel A3 connects to the cooling water input channel of the internal spray system of the cutting reducer side drum, and the third channel B1, the second channel B2, and the fourth channel C1 connect to the cooling water channel of the internal spray system of the intermediate drum, thus completing the connection of the cooling water channel of the internal spray system of the cutting reducer.

[0041] like Figure 2 As shown: The inner tube is connected to the planetary carrier 5 through the inner channel assembly 16. The center of the inner channel assembly 16 is a stepped through hole and the outer ring is a stepped shaft. The inner tube is inserted into the bottom of the stepped through hole, and the stepped shaft is inserted into the hole of the planetary carrier 5. The shaft shoulder stops at the circumference of the hole. The stepped shaft and the planetary carrier 5 are sealed by seal Ⅲ15, which is installed in the groove of the stepped shaft.

[0042] The outer tube is connected to the main drive shaft 28 through the outer channel assembly 17. The outer channel assembly 17 does not contact the inner tube. The center of the outer channel assembly 17 is a stepped through hole and the outer ring is a stepped shaft. The outer tube is inserted into the bottom of the stepped through hole, and the stepped shaft is inserted into the shaft center channel. The shaft shoulder is stopped by the support shoulder in the shaft center channel. The stepped shaft and the main drive shaft 28 are sealed by seal IV18, which is embedded in the groove of the stepped shaft.

[0043] The protruding shaft on the planetary carrier 5 is inserted into the stepped hole on the end face of the main drive shaft 28. A water seal 14 is installed between the protruding shaft and the first-stage stepped hole, and the protruding shaft is fitted into the second-stage stepped hole.

[0044] The planet carrier 5 comprises two identical halves joined by screws, with a bidirectional channel A2 drilled into the mating surfaces of the two halves.

[0045] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention.
