[0008] A planetary gear a is rotatably arranged on the planet carrier, a plurality of planetary gears a are arranged, and all of the plurality of planetary gears a are meshed with meshing teeth on the sun gear;

[0009] Planetary gear b, coaxially arranged on planetary gear a;

[0010] And a gear ring is sleeved outside the planet carrier, and the gear ring is meshed with multiple planetary gears b.

[0011] Preferably, the sun gear is located at the center of the planet carrier, and the sun gear is rotatably connected to the planet carrier via a sun gear bearing.

[0012] Preferably, a rotating shaft is rotatably arranged on the planet carrier, and the axis of the rotating shaft is parallel to the axis of the sun gear.

[0013] Preferably, a planet carrier bearing is arranged on the outer peripheral wall of the output end of the planet carrier.

[0014] Preferably, the planet carrier is a hollow cylinder with holes on both sides of the hollow cylinder, and an avoidance groove is arranged on the peripheral wall of the hollow cylinder to avoid the planetary gear a and the planetary gear b.

[0015] Preferably, three planetary gears a and three planetary gears b are provided, and the three planetary gears a are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction with the sun gear axis as the center.

[0016] Preferably, the diameter of the planetary gear a is greater than the diameter of the planetary gear b, and the meshing teeth on the sun gear are in an indented form.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0018] 1. High precision: The precision planetary reducer adopts advanced design and manufacturing technology, which can achieve high-precision transmission and positioning. Its transmission chain is short and simple, which is conducive to reducing errors;

[0019] 2. High torque: Since multiple planetary gears share the load around the sun gear, forming power splitting, it can transmit a large torque. When the transmission speed ratio is too small, it can also achieve effective transmission;

[0025] Embodiment 1

[0026] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the present invention proposes a driving module for a robot joint, comprising:

[0027] Planet carrier 6, as output, connected to the equipment;

[0028] The sun gear 1 is rotatably mounted on the planet carrier 6, and meshing teeth are arranged on the outer wall of the sun gear 1;

[0029] A planetary gear a3 is rotatably arranged on the planet carrier 6, a plurality of planetary gears a3 are arranged, and all of the plurality of planetary gears a3 are meshed with the meshing teeth on the sun gear 1;

[0030] Planetary gear b4, coaxially arranged on planetary gear a3;

[0031] And the ring gear 5 is sleeved outside the planet carrier 6, the ring gear 5 is meshed with multiple planetary gears b4, and the ring gear 5 is fixed on the equipment.

[0032] Embodiment 2

[0033] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the present invention proposes a driving module applied to a robot joint. Compared with the first embodiment, this embodiment introduces relevant detailed structures.

[0034] The sun gear 1 is located at the center of the planet carrier 6, and the sun gear 1 is rotatably connected to the planet carrier 6 through the sun gear bearing 2. A rotating shaft 8 is rotatably arranged on the planet carrier 6, and the axis of the rotating shaft 8 is parallel to the axis of the sun gear 1. A planet carrier bearing 7 is arranged on the outer peripheral wall of the output end of the planet carrier 6, and the planet carrier 6 is rotatably connected to the equipment through the planet carrier bearing 7. The planet carrier bearing 7 is a cross roller bearing, which has strong anti-overturning ability, high precision, high rigidity, low friction coefficient, high speed and high reliability. The planet carrier 6 is a hollow cylinder, and holes are opened on both sides of the hollow cylinder. An avoidance groove is arranged on the circumferential wall of the hollow cylinder to avoid the planetary gear a3 and the planetary gear b4. There are three planetary gears a3 and b4, and the three planetary gears a3 are evenly distributed in the circumferential direction with the axis of the sun gear 1 as the center. The diameter of the planetary gear a3 is larger than the diameter of the planetary gear b4, and the meshing teeth on the sun gear 1 are in the form of recessed.

[0035] In summary, when the present invention is in use, the sun gear 1 is connected to the prime mover, the sun gear 1 rotates to drive the planetary gear a3 to rotate, and the planetary gear a3 drives the planetary gear b4 to rotate. Because of the meshing of the planetary gear b4 and the ring gear 5, and the fixation of the ring gear 5, the entire planetary carrier 6 will rotate, and then the right side of the planetary carrier 6 is connected to the equipment to transmit the power. It can achieve high-precision transmission and positioning, and its transmission chain is short and simple, which is conducive to reducing errors. Multiple planetary gears a3 and planetary gears b4 share the load around the sun gear 1 to form a power split, so they can transmit a larger torque. The structural design is compact, which is conducive to saving space, while providing high torque and high-precision motion control.

[0036] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
