Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of bearing lubrication structures, and in particular to a self-lubricating steering gear bearing. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of the automobile industry, the requirements for automobile parts are getting higher and higher, especially for the key component to ensure driving safety and comfort - the steering system. In the steering system, the steering gear bearing, as a key component connecting the steering shaft and the steering gear, undertakes the important task of transmitting the steering torque.

[0003] Traditional steering gear bearings are usually lubricated with grease, that is, a certain amount of grease is added during bearing assembly to reduce friction and ensure normal operation. However, this lubrication method has obvious limitations. First, as the use time increases, wear will inevitably occur inside the bearing. The metal debris generated by this wear will mix into the grease to form sludge. The formation of sludge will not only increase the friction resistance inside the bearing and reduce its operating efficiency, but also further accelerate the wear of the bearing, forming a vicious cycle. In addition, due to the presence of sludge, the lubrication effect of the bearing is gradually weakened, leading to premature failure of the bearing.

[0004] In order to maintain good lubrication and extend the service life of bearings, bearings must be maintained regularly, including disassembling the bearings and replacing the internal grease. This process is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also requires professional technology and tools, which will bring great inconvenience to users. What is more serious is that if maintenance is not carried out in time, the bearings may be damaged due to insufficient lubrication. At this time, the entire bearing usually needs to be replaced, which will undoubtedly greatly increase the maintenance cost. Summary of the invention

The inner wall of the fixing seat 2 is connected to the outer ring 301, the inner side of the outer ring 301 is provided with an inner ring 302, a retainer 303 is provided between the inner ring 302 and the outer ring 301, and the retainer 303 is connected to a plurality of balls 304 at intervals in a circumferential direction, and the balls 304 are all connected to the outer ring 301. The inner wall of the ring 301 contacts the outer wall of the inner ring 302. Under the action of the ball 304, the inner ring 302 can rotate freely in the outer ring 301. The bearing 3 is a prior art and will not be described in detail here. The inner and outer sides of the retaining frame 303 are circumferentially connected with multiple partitions 5, and the partitions 5 do not contact the outer ring 301 and the inner ring 302, so as not to affect the free rotation of the inner ring 302. Each partition 5 is located between two adjacent balls 304. The rear side of the inner wall of the fixed seat 2 is connected to a fixing frame 6, and the fixing frame 6 is located above the bearing 3. , two connecting rings 7 are connected to the lower end of the fixing frame 6, and the two connecting rings 7 are distributed inside and outside, and a cavity for storing grease is formed between the two connecting rings 7. The bottom of the cavity is connected to the top of the retaining frame 303. The bottoms of the two connecting rings 7 are connected to the first sealing rings 8, and the bottoms of the two first sealing rings 8 are respectively in contact with the top of the outer ring 301 and the top of the inner ring 302 of the bearing 3. The first sealing ring 8 is used to block the gap between the connecting ring 7 and the outer ring 301 and the inner ring 302, and plays a sealing role to prevent the grease in the cavity from Overflow, a connecting pipe 9 is connected to the upper left side of the fixed seat 2, one end of the connecting pipe 9 is connected to the left side of the outer connecting ring 7 and keeps in communication, an electric push rod 10 is connected to the left side of the inner wall of the fixed seat 2, and a connecting rod 11 is connected to the telescopic rod of the electric push rod 10, a sliding frame 12 is connected between the two connecting rings 7, and the sliding frame 12 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting rod 11, and the bottom of the sliding frame 12 blocks the top of the above-mentioned cavity, the waste discharge component is used to discharge the sludge inside the bearing 3, and the feeding component is used to transport new grease to the inside of the bearing 3 through the connecting pipe 9.

[0031] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the waste discharge assembly includes a collecting frame 13, a second sealing ring 1301, a waste discharge pipe 14 and a first one-way valve 25. The inner wall of the fixed seat 2 is connected to the collecting frame 13, and the collecting frame 13 is located below the bearing 3. The top of the collecting frame 13 is an open design, and the top of the collecting frame 13 is connected to the bottom of the retaining frame 303. Two second sealing rings 1301 are connected to the top of the collecting frame 13, and the two second sealing rings 1301 are respectively in contact with the bottom of the outer ring 301 and the bottom of the inner ring 302 of the bearing 3. The second sealing ring 1301 is used to block the gap between the collecting frame 13 and the outer ring 301 and the inner ring 302, and plays a sealing role to prevent sludge from overflowing. The waste discharge pipe 14 is connected to the lower left side of the fixed seat 2, and one end of the waste discharge pipe 14 is connected to the left side of the collecting frame 13 and maintained in communication, and the first one-way valve 25 is installed on the waste discharge pipe 14.

[0032] like Figure 5 As shown, the feeding assembly includes a storage frame 15, a feeding pipe 1501, a suction pump 16, a suction pipe 17, a discharge pipe 18, a second one-way valve 26 and a third one-way valve 27. The storage frame 15 is connected to the rear side of the outer wall of the fixed seat 2, and the feeding pipe 1501 is connected to the rear side of the top of the storage frame 15. Grease can be added to the storage frame 15 manually through the feeding pipe 1501. A dust cover is threadedly connected to the top of the feeding pipe 1501, and the dust cover is used to prevent external dust from entering the storage frame 15. The second one-way valve 26 is installed on the feeding pipe 1501. A suction pump 16 is installed on the left side of the storage frame 15. A suction pipe 17 is connected between the feed port of the suction pump 16 and the top of the storage frame 15. The discharge pipe 18 is connected between the discharge port of the suction pump 16 and the other end of the connecting pipe 9, and the discharge pipe 18 is installed with a third one-way valve 27.

[0033] Initially, a proper amount of grease can be manually injected into the storage frame 15 through the feeding pipe 1501, and the second one-way valve 26 can prevent the grease in the storage frame 15 from overflowing through the feeding pipe 1501; when the grease inside the bearing 3 needs to be replaced, the extraction pump 16 can be started first, and the extraction pump 16 can extract the grease in the storage frame 15 through the extraction pipe 17. At the same time, the extraction pump 16 can transport the extracted grease to the connecting pipe 9 through the discharge pipe 18. The third one-way valve 27 can prevent the grease in the connecting pipe 9 from flowing back, so that the grease in the connecting pipe 9 can all enter the cavity between the two connecting rings 7, and then the extraction pump 16 is closed after the cavity is filled with grease, and then the electric push rod 10 is controlled to drive the connecting rod 11 and the sliding frame 12 to move downward, and the sliding frame 12 will enter the cavity and squeeze the grease in the cavity. Under the limiting and guiding action of the connecting ring 7, the grease in the cavity can all be transported downward. The grease is then pushed down and the grease on the retainer 303 and the balls 304 is squeezed downwards by the grease so that the grease falls into the collecting frame 13 and is discharged downwards through the waste pipe 14. The first one-way valve 25 can prevent foreign matter from entering the collecting frame 13 through the waste pipe 14. At this time, the outer wall of the sliding frame 12 can block the end of the connecting pipe 9, thereby preventing the end of the connecting pipe 9 from being exposed to the air, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the inside of the connecting pipe 9. Finally, the electric push rod 10 is controlled to drive the connecting rod 11 and the sliding frame 12 to move upwards and reset, so that the sliding frame 12 can leave the inside of the cavity and the outer wall of the sliding frame 12 no longer blocks the end of the connecting pipe 9, so that the connecting pipe 9 can deliver new grease to the cavity next time. In this way, the replacement of the grease inside the bearing 3 can be automatically completed, the operation is simple, and the service life of the bearing 3 can be extended.

[0034] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, it also includes an annular plate 19, a sliding tube 20 and a connecting spring 21. The lower side of the interior of the above-mentioned cavity is connected to the annular plate 19, and the upper side of the interior of the collecting frame 13 is also connected to the annular plate 19. The number of the annular plates 19 is two, and multiple sliding tubes 20 are connected to the two annular plates 19 at circumferential intervals. The upper end of the sliding tube 20 is an open design, and the lower end of the sliding tube 20 is a closed design, and the lower end of the sliding tube 20 is in contact with the bottom of the annular plate 19. The sliding tube 20 is circumferentially spaced with through holes 2001. The connecting spring 21 is wound around the outside of the sliding tube 20, and the two ends of the connecting spring 21 are respectively connected to the annular 7-shaped plate and the sliding tube 20.

[0035] Initially, the two annular plates 19 are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the bearing 3, so that the bottom of the cavity and the top of the collecting frame 13 are not connected to the retaining frame 303; when the sliding frame 12 moves downward to squeeze the grease in the cavity, the grease in the cavity will push the upper sliding tube 20 downward, and the upper connecting spring 21 is compressed, so that the lower end of the upper through hole 2001 protrudes out of the bottom of the upper annular plate 19. At this time, the bottom of the cavity is connected to the retaining frame 303 through the upper through hole 2001, and the grease in the cavity enters the retaining frame 303 through the upper through hole 2001. The upper annular plate 19 blocks the upward movement of the sludge, ensuring that the sludge can only move downward; similarly, the downward movement of the sludge in the retaining frame 303 will squeeze the lower sliding tube 20 to move downward, and the lower connecting spring 21 will compress the lower connecting spring 21. 21 is compressed so that the lower end of the lower through hole 2001 can protrude from the bottom of the lower annular plate 19. At this time, the top of the collecting frame 13 is connected with the retaining frame 303 through the lower through hole 2001. The sludge in the retaining frame 303 can fall into the collecting frame 13 through the lower through hole 2001, and the lower annular plate 19 is always blocked between the top of the collecting frame 13 and the bottom of the retaining frame 303 to prevent the new grease in the retaining frame 303 from mixing with the sludge in the collecting frame 13. When the sliding frame 12 moves upward and resets, the grease and sludge are not compressed, and the connecting spring 21 will return to its original state, driving the sliding tube 20 to move upward and reset, so that the lower end of the through hole 2001 no longer protrudes from the bottom of the annular plate 19, so that the bottom of the cavity and the top of the collecting frame 13 are returned to a disconnected state with the retaining frame 303.

[0036] like Figure 8 As shown, it also includes a guide rod 22, a sliding plate 23 and a return spring 24. The left and right sides of the storage frame 15 are connected with guide rods 22, and a sliding plate 23 is slidably connected between the two guide rods 22. The shape of the sliding plate 23 is adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the storage frame 15, and the outer wall of the sliding plate 23 is in contact with the inner wall of the storage frame 15. The outer sides of the two guide rods 22 are wound with a return spring 24, and the two ends of the return spring 24 are respectively connected to the bottom of the sliding plate 23 and the bottom of the storage frame 15, and the bottom of the storage frame 15 is provided with an air hole (not shown in the figure); when grease is manually injected into the storage frame 15, the grease will The sliding plate 23 is squeezed to move downward along the guide rod 22, the return spring 24 is compressed, and the air in the storage frame 15 is discharged outward through the air holes. When the extraction pump 16 extracts the grease in the storage frame 15 through the extraction pipe 17, as the grease in the storage frame 15 decreases, the return spring 24 will gradually return to its original state, driving the sliding plate 23 to move upward along the guide rod 22 and reset. The sliding plate 23 can push the grease in the storage frame 15 to move upward, ensuring the extraction effect of the extraction pipe 17 on the grease. At this time, outside air can enter the storage frame 15 through the air holes to ensure the stability of the air pressure in the storage frame 15.

[0037] like Fig. 9 As shown, it also includes a fixing sleeve 28, a conical frame 29, a sealing sleeve 30, an oil seal spring 31 and a protective sleeve 32. The outer wall of the shaft body 4 is connected to the fixing sleeve 28, the top of the fixing seat 2 is connected to the conical frame 29, and the upper end of the conical frame 29 is connected to the sealing sleeve 30. The sealing sleeve 30 is made of rubber, and the inner wall of the sealing sleeve 30 is in contact with the outer wall of the fixing sleeve 28. When the shaft body 4 rotates, the fixing sleeve 28 will rotate synchronously with the shaft body 4. Since the fixing sleeve 28 is made of ceramic material and has a smooth outer wall, the friction between the fixing sleeve 28 and the sealing sleeve 30 can be reduced, and the wear of the sealing sleeve 30 can be reduced. The outer upper spacer sleeve is provided with three oil seal springs 31, and the shape of the oil seal spring 31 is annular. Three protective sleeves 32 are connected to the outer upper part of the sealing sleeve 30 at intervals, and the oil seal spring 31 is located inside the protective sleeve 32; under the elastic force of the oil seal spring 31, the upper part of the inner wall of the sealing sleeve 30 can be tightly attached to the outer upper part of the fixed sleeve 28, preventing external moisture from entering the bearing 3 through the gap between the fixed sleeve 28 and the sealing sleeve 30, playing a sealing role, thereby extending the service life of the bearing 3, and the protective sleeve 32 can protect the oil seal spring 31 to prevent the oil seal spring 31 from being exposed to the air and rusting.

[0038] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
