[0044] The motor 12 includes a motor shaft 11, and the reducer 7 includes a reducer input shaft 5; the motor shaft 11, the reducer input shaft 5 and the clutch 10 are all hollow structures, forming a wire-passing hollow shaft 4; an air pipe 10.4 for connecting or disconnecting the clutch 10 is arranged in the wire-passing hollow shaft 4;

[0046] The encoder 22 and the brake 13 are sleeved on the motor shaft 11, and the brake 13 is used to brake the motor shaft 11; the encoder 22, the motor 12 and the brake 13 are all connected to the driver 21, the encoder 22 is used to detect the angular position of the motor shaft 11 and send it to the driver 21, and the driver 21 is used to control the action of the motor 12 and the brake 13, and the radiation sensitive elements of the encoder 22 and the driver 21 are made of radiation-resistant materials.

[0047] In this embodiment, as one of the feasible ways, the clutch 5 is a single-plate friction clutch, and the connection and disconnection are realized by pneumatics.

[0048] The pneumatic pressure of the clutch 10 can be adjusted to accommodate load ends of different weights. At the same time, the pneumatic actuation of the clutch 10 is not affected by power outages, and can also provide a buffer during emergency recovery of the load end, avoiding the load end returning too quickly, resulting in overshoot and equipment damage.

[0049] refer to Figure 2In this embodiment, as one of the achievable ways, the clutch 10 includes a driven plate 10.1, a driving plate 10.2 and a compression spring 10.3;

[0050] One end of the driven disc 10.1 close to the driving disc 10.2 fits with one end of the driving disc 10.2 close to the driven disc 10.1 to achieve the connection of the clutch 10; when the clutch 10 is connected, the reducer input shaft 5 is connected to the motor shaft 11;

[0051] The end of the driven disc 10.1 close to the driving disc 10.2 is disengaged from the end of the driving disc 10.2 close to the driven disc 10.1, so that the clutch 10 is disengaged; when the clutch 10 is disengaged, the reducer input shaft 5 is disengaged from the motor shaft 11;

[0052] The driven disc 10.1, the driving disc 10.2, the reducer input shaft 5 and the motor shaft 11 are all hollow structures, forming a wire-passing hollow shaft 4; the air pipe 10.4 is arranged in the wire-passing hollow shaft 4;

[0053] The reducer input shaft 5 is sleeved in the driven disc 10.1 and is in driving connection with the driven disc 10.1; the motor shaft 11 is sleeved in the driving disc 10.2 and is in sliding and driving connection with the driving disc 10.2;

[0054] A groove is provided at one end of the driven disc 10.1 close to the driving disc 10.2, and a rod is provided at one end of the driving disc 10.2 close to the driven disc 10.1; the rod of the driving disc 10.2 is slidably connected in the groove of the driven disc 10.1 to form a piston;

[0055] The rod of the active disc 10.2 and the groove of the driven disc 10.1 are sealed and connected via an outer sealing ring 10.5 and an inner sealing ring 10.6 to form a sealed chamber;

[0057] One end of the compression spring 10.3 abuts against the end of the driving disk 10.2 away from the driven disk 10.1, and the other end of the compression spring 10.3 abuts against the motor shaft 11 outside the driving disk 10.2, and the compression spring 10.3 is always in a compressed state.

[0058] The pneumatic connection principle of the clutch 10 is as follows: when no gas is passed into the air pipe 10.4, under the action of the compression spring 10.3, the end of the driven disc 10.1 close to the driving disc 10.2 is fitted and connected with the end of the driving disc 10.2 close to the driven disc 10.1, thereby realizing the connection of the clutch 10, thereby realizing the connection between the motor shaft 11 and the reducer input shaft 5.

[0059] The pneumatic disengagement principle of the clutch 10 is as follows: gas is gradually introduced into the air pipe 10.4 from the air inlet end of the air pipe 10.4, so that air pressure is formed in the sealed chamber; under the action of the air pressure in the sealed chamber, the active disc 10.2 slides along the motor shaft 11 in the direction away from the driven disc 10.1, so that the compression spring 10.3 is further compressed, and at the same time, the end of the driven disc 10.1 close to the active disc 10.2 is disengaged from the end of the active disc 10.2 close to the driven disc 10.1, so as to realize the disengagement of the clutch 10, thereby realizing the disengagement of the motor shaft 11 and the reducer input shaft 5. Slowly introduce gas into the air pipe 10.4 to realize the smooth disengagement of the clutch 10.

[0060] When the air pressure in the air pipe 10.4 is disconnected, under the rebound pressure of the compression spring 10.3, the active disc 10.2 slides along the motor shaft 11 toward the driven disc 10.1, and the end of the driven disc 10.1 close to the active disc 10.2 fits with the end of the active disc 10.2 close to the driven disc 10.1, so that the clutch 10 is reset, thereby realizing the connection between the motor shaft 11 and the reducer input shaft 5. That is, after the air pressure in the air pipe 10.4 is disconnected, the clutch 10 will reset itself to restore the connection between the reducer input shaft 5 and the motor shaft 11.

[0061] In this embodiment, as one of the feasible ways, the reducer input shaft 5 is connected to the driven disc 10.1 via a transmission key; the motor shaft 11 is connected to the driving disc 10.2 via a sliding key, and the driving disc 10.2 can slide axially along the motor shaft 11.

[0062] In this embodiment, as one of the achievable ways, the motor 12 further includes a motor rotor and a motor stator, the motor shaft 11 is fixedly connected to the motor rotor, and the motor stator is fixedly connected to the housing 1 .

[0063] In this embodiment, as one of the achievable ways, the reducer input shaft 5 is fixedly connected to the reducer input end; the reducer 7 is fixedly connected to the housing 1 via a reducer fastener 9 .

[0064] In this embodiment, as one of the feasible ways, the reducer 7 is a harmonic reducer.

[0065] In this embodiment, as one of the achievable methods, the brake 13 includes a brake stator and a brake rotor; the brake mounting base is fixedly connected to the housing 1; the brake stator is fixedly connected to the housing 1 through the brake mounting base, and the brake rotor is fixedly connected to the motor shaft 11 through the brake rotor transmission sleeve 14.

[0066] In this embodiment, as one of the feasible ways, the encoder 22 includes an encoder stator and an encoder rotor; the encoder stator is fixedly connected to the housing 1 through an encoder stator fixing plate 20; the encoder rotor is fixedly connected to the motor shaft 11 through a clamping ring, and an encoder rotor transmission sleeve 16 is sleeved on the encoder rotor.

[0067] In this embodiment, as one of the achievable ways, the radiation sensitive elements of the encoder 22 and the driver 21 are both made of gallium nitride or silicon carbide, so that the encoder 22 and the driver 21 have high radiation resistance.

[0068] In this embodiment, as one of the achievable ways, a connection plate 23 is provided at the upper end of the housing 1, and a connection end sealing ring 24 is provided between the connection plate 23 and the housing 1;

[0069] The right end of the housing 1 is provided with a driving end cover 17, and a driving end cover sealing ring 15 is provided between the driving end cover 17 and the housing 1;

[0070] The wire-passing hollow shaft 4 is fixedly connected to the housing 1 through a wire-passing shaft support bearing 18; a bearing end cover 19 is sleeved on the wire-passing shaft support bearing 18;

[0071] A dynamic sealing ring 8 is provided between the reducer 7 and the housing 1, and a static sealing ring is provided between the output disc 2 and the connecting flange 3. By arranging the dynamic sealing ring and the static sealing ring, the underwater driving joint module has waterproof performance and can be used underwater.

[0072] In this embodiment, as one of the feasible ways, the wire-passing hollow shaft 4 cooperates with the inner hole of the inner ring of the wire-passing shaft support bearing 18; the outer ring of the wire-passing shaft support bearing 18 cooperates with the corresponding mounting hole of the encoder stator fixing plate 20.

[0073] In this embodiment, both the output disk 2 and the connection disk 23 can be connected to the robot arm connecting rod to achieve underwater operation.

[0074] The implementation process of the emergency recovery function of the underwater drive joint module of this embodiment is as follows: when the underwater drive joint module loses power due to a fault, the brake 13 will lock the motor shaft 11 due to the power failure. At this time, the clutch 10 is in a connected state, so the output disk 2 will also stop rotating, and then the clutch 10 is slowly pneumatically disconnected, and the motor shaft 11 and the reducer input shaft 5 are disconnected from the transmission connection. At this time, the output disk 2 can continue to rotate under the action of external force, thereby leaving the extreme stuck posture state. At this time, the entire device can be taken out of the confined space with the help of manual external force, avoiding the risk of the device itself being stuck and unable to be recovered and becoming a foreign body.

[0075] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present invention, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the patent of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, which all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present invention shall be subject to the attached claims.
