Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of gear box testing, in particular to a gear box transmission efficiency measuring device on a torsion bar type gear box closed test bench. BACKGROUND

[0002] The gear box closed test bench is formed by connecting two gear boxes with the same transmission ratio by a universal coupling and a torsion bar. The torsion bar is loaded by rotating the loading flange to produce torsional deformation. After loading, the loading flange is locked to keep the torsion bar in a state of torsional deformation. The two gear boxes, the universal coupling and the torsion bar support form a closed load. At this time, there is meshing force between the gears inside the gear box, but the gears do not rotate. When the motor drives the gear box, it needs to overcome the power loss of the gear box and the transmission coupling, so the gear box closed test bench has the advantage of energy saving. A small-power motor can drive a high-power gear box. However, it is not convenient to measure the efficiency of the gear box. Therefore, we propose a gear box transmission efficiency measuring device on a torsion bar type gear box closed test bench. SUMMARY
