Description

Technical Field

[0002] A reducer is a mechanical device used to reduce the output speed of a rotating machine and increase the output torque. It is usually composed of a set of gears, and the speed conversion between the input shaft and the output shaft is achieved through the gear ratio and size matching. For a conventional reducer, the basic structure generally has an input structure and an output structure. The input structure is usually an input shaft, which is responsible for receiving the rotational force of an external power source (such as an electric motor) and transmitting it to the gear system inside the reducer. The output structure outputs the power of the reducer after speed conversion to the required equipment or mechanical device through the output shaft. The Chinese utility model patent with patent number CN200420066871.5 discloses a motor reducer including a worm-helical gear reducer, which can solve the problem of axial displacement of the inner ring of the bearing, so that the bearing can be more reliably fixed on the worm shaft; the Chinese utility model patent with patent number CN201921322595.7 discloses a gear reducer device with a dustproof function, which can lubricate the gear reducer without disassembling the housing, avoiding a large amount of dust from entering.

At the same time, looking down from the end cover, the second duplex gear 26 rotates counterclockwise to drive the planetary gear 20 to rotate clockwise. The planetary gear 20 drives the differential gear 9 to rotate, and the differential gear 9 transmits the motion to the output gear 11. The output gear 11 rotates with the output shaft 12 at the same time, and the output shaft 12 rotates and reduces the speed, thereby achieving the purpose of deceleration and transmission of motion.
