Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of auxiliary transmissions, and in particular to an auxiliary transmission, a main transmission and a vehicle. Background Art

[0002] Auxiliary transmission is an additional transmission attached to the main transmission. Its function is to increase the number of transmission gears and expand the transmission ratio range. It is mostly used in heavy-duty vehicles. Auxiliary transmission is used for heavy-duty vehicles with large changes in empty and full-load mass, complex operating conditions, especially diesel engine torque changes slowly, poor adaptability, and the need to expand the transmission ratio range and increase the number of gears to meet the power and economy requirements under various operating conditions. In order to avoid making the structure of the transmission too complicated and facilitate serialization, it is often combined with a four-speed or five-speed transmission and a two-, three-, or four-speed auxiliary transmission. The auxiliary transmission can be installed before or after the transmission. The front auxiliary transmission is mostly composed of a pair of gears to form an overdrive gear instead of the constant meshing transmission gear of the transmission. It has a compact structure and is easy to change. The rear auxiliary transmission can be composed of two pairs of gears or planetary gear mechanisms. The transmission ratio is relatively large. The rear position can reduce the size and load of the transmission and is a common type; the front and rear equal placement scheme can obtain more gears.

[0003] In the related art, when the auxiliary transmission is performing deceleration output or direct output, its planetary gear assembly is always in operation. Continuous operation will accelerate the wear of the planetary gears, shorten their service life, and increase the internal friction of the planetary gear assembly, thereby reducing the transmission efficiency. Due to the increased wear, more frequent maintenance and replacement of parts are required, which increases maintenance costs. Summary of the invention

[0069] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present application, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0070] The embodiments of the present application provide a sub-transmission, a main transmission and a vehicle, which can avoid the problem that the planetary gear assembly (planetary gear shaft and planetary carrier assembly) of the traditional sub-transmission is always in operation regardless of whether it is working in deceleration output or direct output, which will accelerate the wear of the planetary gears, shorten their service life, reduce transmission efficiency, require more frequent maintenance and replacement of parts, and increase maintenance costs.

[0071] First, as Fig.18 and Fig.19As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a sub-transmission, which includes: an intermediate shaft 23, one end of which is spline-connected to the output shaft 13, and the outer wall of the other end thereof is sleeved with a second input gear 22; a planetary gear shaft 18, the planetary gear shaft 18 is sleeved on the outer wall of the intermediate shaft 23, one end of the planetary gear shaft 18 is meshed with a planetary carrier assembly 16, and the outer wall of the other end thereof is sleeved with a first input gear 20; a synchronizer assembly 8, one end of the synchronizer assembly 8 is spline-connected to the output shaft 13, and the other end is spline-connected to the planetary carrier assembly 16, and the synchronizer assembly 8 is used for power connection or power disconnection between the planetary carrier assembly 16 and the intermediate shaft 23.

[0072] Exemplarily, the right end of the intermediate shaft 23 is spline-connected to the left end of the output shaft 13, and the outer wall of the intermediate shaft 23 is sleeved with a planetary gear shaft 18. The intermediate shaft 23 and the planetary gear shaft 18 rotate independently without interfering with each other. The left end of the intermediate shaft 23 is sleeved with a second input gear 22, and the left end of the planetary gear shaft 18 is sleeved with a first input gear 20. The main transmission can choose to use the second input gear 22 or the first input gear 20 as the power input point. The right end of the planetary gear shaft 18 is meshed with the planetary carrier assembly 16, and the right end of the planetary carrier assembly 16 and the output shaft 13 are both spline-connected to the synchronizer assembly 8. The synchronizer assembly 8 can realize power connection or disconnection within itself, thereby realizing power connection or disconnection between the right end of the planetary carrier assembly 16 and the output shaft 13.

[0073] Specifically, the deceleration output route: when the first input gear 20 is subjected to force (the source of force is the main transmission gear meshed with it), the torque begins to be transmitted, and the force is transmitted from the first input gear 20 to the planetary gear shaft 18, the planetary carrier assembly 16, the synchronizer assembly 8 and the output shaft 13 in sequence, completing the deceleration output. At this time, the synchronizer assembly 8 is in a meshing state, so that the planetary carrier assembly 16 and the output shaft 13 are connected in power; the direct output route: when the second input gear 22 is subjected to force, the torque begins to be transmitted, and the force is transmitted from the second input gear 22 to the intermediate shaft 23 and the output shaft 13 in sequence, completing the direct output. At this time, the synchronizer assembly 8 is in a neutral state, so that the planetary carrier assembly 16 and the output shaft 13 are disconnected in power. This avoids the problem that the planetary gear assembly (planetary gear shaft 18 and planetary carrier assembly 16) of the traditional auxiliary transmission is always in operation regardless of the deceleration output or direct output, which will accelerate the wear of the planetary gears, shorten their service life, reduce transmission efficiency, require more frequent maintenance and replacement of parts, and increase maintenance costs.

[0074] In combination with the first aspect, in one embodiment, Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the synchronizer assembly 8 includes: a gear seat 81, the inner wall of which is spline-connected to the outer wall of the output shaft 13; a cone ring 82, which is coaxially arranged with the gear seat 81, and the inner wall of which is spline-connected to the outer wall of one end of the planetary carrier assembly 16; a sleeve 84, which is sleeved on the outer walls of the gear seat 81 and the cone ring 82, and is spline-connected to the gear seat 81, and the sleeve 84 can move radially and is spline-connected to the cone ring 82.

[0075] Exemplarily, the synchronizer assembly 8 includes a sleeve 84 and a tooth seat 81 and a cone ring 82 disposed in the sleeve 84, as shown in FIG. Fig.13 and Fig.14 The interior of the cone ring 82 is connected to the fourth external spline of the outer wall of the right end of the planetary carrier assembly 16 through the second internal spline 821. Fig.13 and Figure 7 The outer portion of the cone ring 82 is connected to the inner spline of the sleeve 84 through the first outer spline 822. Fig.11 and Fig.15 The internal spline of the gear seat 81 is spline-connected with the third external spline 132 of the output shaft 13. Figure 6 When the sleeve 84 is on the right side, that is, the sleeve 84 is in meshing connection with the gear holder 81, but is disconnected from the cone ring 82. At this time, the synchronizer assembly 8 is in neutral, and the power disconnection between the planet carrier assembly 16 and the output shaft 13 is achieved. For details, refer to Figure 7 The sliding sleeve 84 can move to the left and be in meshing connection with the cone ring 82. At this time, the synchronizer assembly 8 is in meshing state, realizing power transmission between the planet carrier assembly 16 and the output shaft 13.

[0076] In combination with the first aspect, in one embodiment, Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Fig.10 , Fig.11 and Fig.12 An elastic telescopic part is embedded in the outer wall of the tooth seat 81, one end of the elastic telescopic part faces the axis of the tooth seat 81, and the other end of the elastic telescopic part is arranged in an arc surface; an arc groove 842 is opened on the inner wall of the sliding sleeve 84, and the other end of the elastic telescopic part moves into the arc groove 842 due to its own elastic force. When the sliding sleeve 84 moves radially and is spline-connected with the conical ring 82, the other end of the elastic telescopic part moves out of the arc groove 842.

[0077] Exemplary, specific reference Figure 7In the cross-sectional view shown in FIG. 1 , the upper and lower top walls of the tooth seat 81 are embedded with elastic members, which are perpendicular to the side walls and point to the center of the tooth seat 81. The elastic force of the elastic member causes the end of the elastic member away from the tooth seat 81 to abut against the inner wall of the sliding sleeve 84. For details, refer to FIG. Figure 6 As shown in the cross-sectional view, when the sleeve 84 moves to the right, its elastic member will be stuck in the arc groove 842 under its own elastic force, so that the sleeve 84 moves to the right and ensures that the synchronizer assembly 8 is completely disconnected. The elastic member mainly plays a positioning and supporting role, ensuring that the synchronizer assembly can remain stable during operation and correctly cooperate with other components to help achieve synchronous meshing of gears, thereby shortening the shifting time and preventing gear impact before synchronization. Figure 7 As shown, when the sliding sleeve 84 moves to the left, its elastic telescopic part will move out of the arc groove 842 under its own elastic force. The other end of the elastic telescopic part is set in an arc surface and with the cooperation of the arc groove 842, the sliding sleeve 84 can be smoothly moved to prevent jamming. The outer diameter of the cone ring 82 gradually increases from left to right. At this time, after the arc groove 842 and the outer wall of the cone ring 82 are engaged in place, the subsequent sliding sleeve 84 can be prevented from continuing to move to the left and affecting the power connection state.

[0078] In combination with the first aspect, in one embodiment, Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown, the outer wall of the tooth seat 81 is provided with a mounting groove; the elastic telescopic member includes: a support column protrusion 83, one end of the support column protrusion 83 is arranged in the mounting groove, and the other end face thereof is arranged in an arc surface and is adapted to the arc groove 842; a spring 86, the spring 86 is sleeved on the outer wall of the support column protrusion 83, and the two ends of the spring 86 are against the support column protrusion 83 and the mounting groove.

[0079] Exemplarily, the outer wall of the gear holder 81 is provided with four mounting grooves along its circumferential direction, and elastic telescopic parts are arranged in the mounting grooves, and the elastic telescopic parts include a support column protrusion 83, one end of the support column protrusion 83 is installed in the mounting groove through a spring 86, and the other end thereof is matched with the arc groove 842. When the sliding sleeve 84 moves to shift gears, the cooperation of the support column protrusion 83 and the spring 86 ensures that the sliding sleeve 84 shifts into place.

[0080] In combination with the first aspect, in one embodiment, Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Fig. 9 As shown, the other end side wall of the elastic telescopic member is provided with a protrusion; the outer wall of the tooth seat 81 is engaged and fixed to the clamping ring 85, and the end face of the clamping ring 85 is in contact with the protrusion, which is used to prevent the elastic telescopic member from shifting along the telescopic direction.

[0081] Exemplarily, because the support column protrusion 83 is at least partially located outside the mounting groove, during the movement and shifting of the sliding sleeve 84, the sliding sleeve 84 will drive the support column protrusion 83 to radially deviate, so that the support column protrusion 83 is no longer perpendicular to the outer wall of the gear seat 81. At this time, the outer wall of the gear seat 81 is sleeved with a retaining ring 85, and the side wall of the retaining ring 85 will contact the protrusion of the support column protrusion 83, limiting the radial deviation of the support column protrusion 83 in the direction close to the retaining ring 85. The protrusion of the support column protrusion 83 can be specifically referred to Fig.10 The support column protrusion 83 is divided into three parts. The first part is the support column at the bottom end. The second part is the protrusion fixed to the top of the support column. The top surface of the protrusion is set in an arc surface to facilitate the adaptation of the arc groove 842. The third part is a protrusion integrally formed with the right side of the protrusion. The protrusion contacts the retaining ring 85 to prevent the support column protrusion 83 from radially deviating in the direction close to the retaining ring 85.

[0082] In combination with the first aspect, in one embodiment, Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Fig. 9 , Fig.11 and Fig.12 As shown, the side wall of the tooth seat 81 is provided with a first notch 812, the side wall of the retaining ring 85 is provided with a protrusion 851, and the protrusion 851 is located in the first notch 812; the inner side wall of the sliding sleeve 84 is provided with a second notch 843, the second notch 843 is provided with a limiting block 841, and projected in the radial direction, the first notch 812 is located in the second notch 843, and the limiting block 841 is located in the first notch 812; when the sliding sleeve 84 moves radially close to the tooth seat 81, the first notch 812 moves into the second notch 843 until the limiting block 841 abuts against the protrusion 851 to limit the sliding sleeve 84 from continuing to move radially.

[0083] For example, Fig.11 As shown, the end surface of the gear holder 81 is provided with a slot 811, and the snap ring 85 is fixed in the slot 811. The outer wall of the gear holder 81 is provided with four first notches 812, and the snap ring 85 is provided with four protrusions 851 ( Fig.11 Only one protrusion 851 is shown in the figure, and the sliding sleeve 84 is provided with four second notches 843 correspondingly. Fig.12 As shown, after the protrusion 851 is inserted into the slot 811, the protrusion 851 is located in the first notch 812. When the sleeve 84 moves right to the neutral position, the end face of the limit block 841 contacts the protrusion 851, and the sleeve 84 cannot move any further, thereby preventing the sleeve 84 from moving to the right beyond the neutral position when the synchronizer assembly 8 is in neutral, i.e., an anti-overrun design.

[0084] In combination with the first aspect, in one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the synchronizer assembly 8 also includes: a linear motor 1, a shift fork 7 is fixed to the translation end of the linear motor; a slide groove is provided on the outer wall of the slide sleeve 84, and one end of the shift fork 7 is arranged in the slide groove; the linear motor 1 can drive the shift fork 7 to move linearly, so as to drive the slide sleeve 84 to move radially.

[0085] For example, the linear motor 1 is mounted on the top of the rear housing 6, and its translation end can drive the shift fork 7 to move left and right. Figure 1 and Figure 6 One end of the shift fork 7 is arranged in the slide groove of the sliding sleeve 84 to drive the sliding sleeve 84 to move left and right to perform the shift operation.

[0086] In combination with the first aspect, in one embodiment, Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the planetary carrier assembly 16 includes a planetary carrier 164, and the planetary carrier 164 is rotatably installed with multiple planetary gears 161 along its own circumferential direction. The multiple planetary gears 161 are meshed with one end of the planetary gear shaft 18, and the outer walls of the multiple planetary gears 161 are meshed with the same ring gear 15; the auxiliary transmission also includes: a rear housing 6, the synchronizer assembly 8 and the output shaft 13 are assembled in the rear housing 6, and the inner side wall of the rear housing 6 is provided with a first internal spline 61, and the first internal spline 61 is assembled and fixed with the outer ring spline of the ring gear 15.

[0087] Exemplarily, the planetary carrier assembly 16 is meshed with the first internal spline 61 of the inner wall of the rear shell 6 through the ring gear 15, which can improve the stability of the operation of the planetary carrier assembly 16 and avoid the planetary carrier assembly 16 meshing with the rear shell 6 after long-term use, affecting the service life of the rear shell 6.

[0088] In summary, specifically, Figure 1 As shown, the auxiliary transmission includes a linear motor 1, an operating shaft 2, a first race 3, a fixing pin 4, a second race 5 and a shift fork 7. Figure 5As shown, the linear motor 1 is installed at the motor assembly end face 62 of the rear housing 6, wherein the auxiliary transmission also includes a front housing (not shown in the figure) assembled and connected to the rear housing 6, and is sleeved on the outer walls of the third bearing 17, the planetary gear shaft 18, the fourth bearing 19, the first input gear 20, the fifth bearing 21, the second input gear 22, the intermediate shaft 23 and the sixth bearing 24.
