Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of worm gears and the like, and in particular to a worm gear with a new structure. Background Art
[0002] Because the output force of the X-EPS assembly is the final output torque satisfied by the motor controller after the two-stage speed change of the worm gear and the recirculating ball mechanism; when the output torque requirement increases while taking into account the steering sensitivity and followability, the speed ratio of the worm gear and the recirculating ball mechanism must not be too large, so increasing the output torque of the motor controller is the most direct method; however, increasing the output torque of the motor controller will test the bearing capacity of the worm wheel, and we need to enhance the bearing capacity of the worm wheel to cope with the high-torque motor controller.
[0003] However, the current worm gear structure is a circular iron core with PA66 material wrapped around the outer periphery of the iron core to make worm teeth. Since the worm teeth of this structure are all made of PA66, it is easy to break and fail from the root of the worm teeth when the bearing force increases. Summary of the invention

[0008] The worm wheel covers the worm wheel core, and the second worm teeth are fitted in a one-to-one correspondence with the first worm teeth.
[0009] In the above-mentioned novel structure worm wheel, the middle part of each of the second worm teeth is recessed inward to form a groove.
[0010] In the above-mentioned novel structure worm gear, a first clamping block is provided inwardly protruding from the middle part of the inner part of each of the first worm teeth, and each of the first clamping blocks is correspondingly clamped in each of the grooves.
[0011] In the above-mentioned novel structure worm wheel, an annular groove is provided on the outer edges of both end surfaces of the worm wheel core.
[0012] In the above-mentioned novel structure worm wheel, a second clamping block is annularly arranged inside both end surfaces of the worm wheel, and each of the second clamping blocks is correspondingly clamped in one of the annular grooves.
