Detailed Implementation

[0030] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Based on the embodiments in this application, other similar embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should all fall within the scope of protection of this application. Furthermore, directional terms mentioned in the following embodiments, such as "up," "down," "left," and "right," are only for reference to the directions in the accompanying drawings; therefore, the directional terms used are for illustrative purposes and not for limiting the invention.

[0031] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a walking device is provided; please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1 to 5 The system includes a frame 100, on which a drive element 200, a transmission mechanism 300, and a walking mechanism 400 are provided. The drive element 200 is connected to the walking mechanism 400 through the transmission mechanism 300.

[0032] The walking mechanism 400 includes a drive wheel 403, a driven wheel 402, and a track 401 formed by connecting several track plates end to end. The track plate 401 includes an engagement end 404 and a connecting end 405 located at both ends of the engagement end 404. The connecting end 405 has staggered connecting ears 406 on both sides. The connecting ears 406 have a first mounting hole 408 for accommodating a connecting pin. The end of the connecting end 405 away from the engagement end 404 has a weight reduction hole 410. The side wall of the weight reduction hole 410 has a second mounting hole 411 for accommodating a locking member. The end of the locking member abuts against the connecting pin. The engagement end 404 has an engagement groove 414 in the middle, which engages with the drive wheel 403 and the driven wheel 402 respectively.

[0033] It should be noted that by setting the weight reduction hole 410, the strength of the track plate is ensured while the overall weight of the track plate is greatly reduced, thus reducing the load on the drive wheel 403 and driven wheel 402. At the same time, there is also a support wheel 600 on the frame 100, which further reduces the load on the drive wheel 403 and driven wheel 402. By setting the meshing groove 414 to mesh with the drive wheel 403 and driven wheel 402, the meshing transmission realizes the operation of the track 401, reducing the wear of the track plate. By setting a second mounting hole 411 on the side wall of the weight reduction hole 410, the end of the locking member is limited by the connecting pin, and the locking member is located in the weight reduction hole 410, avoiding damage to the locking member due to external force.

[0034] Specifically, a notch is formed between adjacent connecting ears 406. The notch and connecting ears 406 cooperate to achieve the meshing and splicing between several track plates, making the connection between track plates more compact.

[0035] In the walking device of this embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 5The engagement end 404 has an engagement ear 407 on one side, and a third mounting hole 409 is provided on the engagement ear 407. The center of the third mounting hole 409 is on the same straight line as the center of the first mounting hole 408.

[0036] It should be noted that the centers of the third mounting hole 409 and the first mounting hole 408 are on the same straight line to ensure the installation alignment of the connecting pin and avoid stress concentration that could damage the connecting pin.

[0037] Specifically, the ends of the connecting ear 406 and the meshing ear 407 are both arc-shaped to reduce friction between the track plates and facilitate relative rotation between the track plates.

[0038] In the walking device of this embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 5 The track plate has several gripping teeth on the side that contacts the ground, and the gripping teeth are evenly distributed along the length of the track plate.

[0039] It should be noted that the grip teeth include horizontal teeth 412 and herringbone teeth 413. Several horizontal teeth 412 are distributed along a straight line parallel to the length of the track plate, and the herringbone teeth 413 are located at the ends of the track plate. By setting horizontal teeth 412 and herringbone teeth 413, the friction between the track plate and the ground is increased, the grip is increased, and the operational stability of the track 401 is ensured.

[0040] In the walking device of this embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 5 Two connecting pins are provided on the same side of the track plate, and the two connecting pins are located at different ends of the track plate.

[0041] It should be noted that the two connecting pins facilitate disassembly and assembly. Simultaneously, the locking element is positioned perpendicular to the connecting pin, and the second mounting hole 411 is positioned according to the length of the connecting pin, allowing the end of the locking element to abut against the connecting pin for axial restraint, ensuring the stability of the track plate connection.

[0042] In the walking device of this embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 5 The meshing groove 414 is provided with guide protrusions 415 on both sides. The guide protrusions 415 limit the teeth of the driving wheel 403 and the driven wheel 402 to ensure the meshing effect.

[0043] In the walking device of this embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 7The driven wheel axle 416 has a pressure cap 419 at its end. The pressure cap 419 is connected to the frame 100 via a tension bracket 700. A first oil chamber 420 is formed between the pressure cap 419 and the axle 416. A bushing 417 is sleeved around the axle 416. A sealing seat 418 is provided between the bushing 417 and the driven wheel 402. A second oil chamber 421 is formed between the sealing seat 418, the bushing 417, and the driven wheel 402. The first oil chamber 420 and the second oil chamber 421 are in communication.

[0044] It should be noted that the first oil chamber 420 and the second oil chamber 421 are connected to form a closed oil circuit, which increases the oil injection space and can fully guarantee the lubrication effect. When the driven wheel 402 rotates, the lubricating oil circulates in the first oil chamber 420 and the second oil chamber 421, which makes the bushing 417 better lubricated, reduces the friction between the bushing 417 and the wheel axle 416, increases the service life of the driven wheel 402, and reduces the replacement cost.

[0045] Specifically, the bushing 417 is rotatably connected to the axle 416. The bushing 417, the sealing seat 418, and the driven wheel 402 rotate synchronously. The pressure cover 419 is rotatably connected to the sealing seat 418, and the pressure cover 419 is fixedly connected to the axle 416. A floating seal is provided between the pressure cover 419 and the sealing seat 418. During operation, the axle 416 remains stationary, while the driven wheel 402 rotates.

[0046] In the walking device of this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 The pressure cap 419 is provided with an oil injection hole and a vent hole. The oil injection hole is connected to the first oil chamber 420 and the second oil chamber 421 respectively through an oil injection channel. The vent hole is connected to the first oil chamber 420.

[0047] Specifically, the inside of the pressure cap 419 and the wheel axle 416 are both provided with interconnected oil injection channels, and at the same time, plugs are provided at the oil injection hole and the vent hole.

[0048] Preferably, the oil filling hole and the vent hole have the same structure, which allows the plug to be installed in interchangeable positions.

[0049] In the walking device of this embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 9 The transmission mechanism 300 includes a high-speed end 302 and a low-speed end 303 of a reducer. The drive element 200, the high-speed end 302, the low-speed end 303 of the reducer and the drive wheel 403 are sequentially connected in a transmission manner. A support element 500 is provided between the drive element 200 and the frame 100.

[0050] It should be noted that the support element 500 between the drive element 200 and the frame 100 can effectively resist the instantaneous torque when the drive element 200 starts, and also solves the cantilever problem of the high-speed end 302 of the reducer.

[0051] In the walking device of this embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 9 The high-speed end 302 of the reducer includes a high-speed end housing 304 and a transmission assembly. The transmission assembly is located inside the high-speed end housing 304. The high-speed end housing 304 is provided with a visual level gauge 301 and an oil inlet 305. The oil inlet 305 is connected to the main oil pump 800.

[0052] Specifically, the transmission assembly includes a first shaft assembly 306, a second shaft assembly 307, a third shaft assembly 308, a fourth shaft assembly 309, and a fifth shaft assembly 310 that are connected in sequence. The first shaft assembly 306 is connected to the drive element 200, and the fifth shaft assembly 310 is connected to the power input end of the low-speed end 303 of the reducer.

[0053] It should be noted that the high-speed end 302 of the reducer has a forced lubrication function. The angle of the high-speed end 302 of the reducer can be adjusted according to the actual space. When the high-speed end 302 of the reducer is at a certain angle, the first shaft assembly 306 and the second shaft assembly 307 may not be lubricated. At this time, the main oil pump 800 can be activated for forced lubrication. At the same time, forced lubrication can reduce the oil temperature.

[0054] In the walking device of this embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 9 The low-speed end 303 of the reducer adopts a two-stage planetary reduction structure. The first-stage internal gear ring 313 is connected to the driving wheel 403. The driving wheel 403 has a second-stage internal gear ring. The first-stage planetary carrier 312 is connected to the second-stage sun gear 314. The second-stage planetary carrier 315 is fixed to the frame 100 through the support cover 316.

[0055] Specifically, the connection between the primary internal gear ring 313 and the drive wheel 403 does not use the traditional bolt and pin connection method, but adopts a four-sided circumferential limiting method, which is simple and reliable and can avoid the risks caused by loose bolts. At the same time, the connection between the secondary planetary carrier 315 and the support cover 316 adopts a square head structure, which can both center and transmit power.

[0056] It should be noted that the secondary planetary carrier 315 is connected to the frame 100 and remains fixed. At this point, the secondary planetary reduction structure transforms into a fixed-axis gear train, possessing one degree of freedom. Power is input through the primary sun gear 311 and output in two paths: one path outputs through the primary planetary carrier 312 to the secondary sun gear 314, and then through the secondary planetary gears to the driving gear 403; the other path transmits through the primary planetary gears to the primary internal gear ring 313. Since the primary internal gear ring 313 is connected to the driving gear 403, it outputs power to the driving gear 403. The two outputs converge after passing through the driving gear 403 and are then output together. In other words, a two-stage closed planetary transmission mechanism is used, with the two internal gear rings fixed together, jointly bearing the power output. Because the primary internal gear ring 313 can share some of the output torque, the structural size of the secondary internal gear ring can be reduced, resulting in advantages such as compact structure, large transmission ratio, strong load-bearing capacity, and high transmission efficiency.
