Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0047] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connected" and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, or mutual communication; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements.

In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more features.

[0048] The disclosure below provides many different embodiments or examples to realize the different structures of the present application. In order to simplify the disclosure of the present application, the components and settings of specific examples are described below. Of course, they are only examples, and the purpose is not to limit the present application.

[0049] The starter motor turbine is used to drive the engine's flywheel to rotate to start the engine. When the engine needs to be started, both the turbine and the flywheel need to be stationary to avoid gear knocking.

[0050] However, the time it takes for the starter motor turbine and flywheel to run and stop is different. The starter motor turbine takes a longer time to stop, resulting in the flywheel having stopped while the starter motor turbine has not stopped when the engine is ignited continuously. It is necessary to wait for the starter motor turbine to stop before ignition can be started again, and the interval between continuous ignitions is longer.

[0051] In order to solve the technical problem of the long interval between the continuous ignition of the above-mentioned engine, the first embodiment of the present application provides a starter motor turbine, see Figure 1 The starter motor turbine includes a housing assembly 100, a turbine rotor 200 and a first elastic member 300. The housing assembly 100 has an accommodating cavity 150 and an air inlet 132 and an air outlet 142 connected to the accommodating cavity 150. The housing assembly 100 includes a first portion 110 and a second portion 120 disposed in the accommodating cavity 150 and spaced apart along a first direction X. The turbine rotor 200 includes a rotating portion 210 and a connecting portion 220. The rotating portion 210 is rotatably connected to the first portion 110 and the second portion 120 at both ends along the first direction X. The connecting portion 220 is arranged between the first portion 110 and the second portion 120 along the first direction X; the gas flowing from the air inlet 132 to the air outlet 142 can drive the connecting portion 220 to move in a direction away from the first portion 110; the first elastic member 300 is respectively connected to the rotating portion 210 and the second portion 120 at both ends along the first direction X, and the first elastic member 300 can drive the rotating portion 210 to move toward the first portion 110 along the first direction X, so that the connecting portion 220 is connected to the first portion 110 along the first direction X.

[0052] Specifically, the first direction X is the direction of the arrow X in the accompanying drawings.

[0053] It is understandable that the air inlet 132 is used to introduce compressed gas that drives the turbine rotor 200 to rotate, and the compressed gas flowing through the turbine rotor 200 can be discharged outside the housing assembly 100.

[0054] The rotating portion 210 is not only rotatably connected to the first portion 110 and the second portion 120 , but is also capable of relative movement along the first direction X relative to the first portion 110 and the second portion 120 .

[0055] Specifically, the turbine rotor 200 has a first stationary position. When the turbine rotor 200 is in the first stationary position, the connecting portion 220 of the turbine rotor 200 is in contact with the first portion 110. When the turbine rotor 200 rotates, friction torque is generated between the connecting portion 220 and the first portion 110, reducing the rotational speed of the turbine rotor 200.

[0056] Specifically, the first elastic member 300 can exert a force on the turbine rotor 200 in the first direction X toward the first portion 110, while the compressed gas entering the accommodating chamber 150 can exert a force on the turbine rotor 200 in the first direction X away from the first portion 110. When the compressed gas stops entering the accommodating chamber 150, the force exerted by the first elastic member 300 on the turbine rotor 200 in the first direction X is greater than the force exerted by the compressed gas on the turbine rotor 200 in the first direction X. Propelled by the first elastic member 300, the turbine rotor 200 can enter the first resting position and connect with the first portion 110. After the compressed gas enters the accommodating chamber 150, the force exerted by the first elastic member 300 on the turbine rotor 200 in the first direction X is less than the force exerted by the compressed gas on the turbine rotor 200 in the first direction X. Propelled by the compressed gas, the turbine rotor 200 can separate from the first portion 110, i.e., leave the first resting position.

[0057] In the above embodiment, after the compressed gas stops entering the accommodating chamber 150, the turbine rotor 200 capable of moving along the first direction X will be pushed by the first elastic member 300 to contact the first part 110. The friction torque generated between the first part 110 and the turbine rotor 200 can reduce the rotational speed of the turbine rotor 200, thereby reducing the time it takes for the turbine rotor 200 to go from rotation to stop.

[0058] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 The starter motor further includes a clamping member 400 and a second elastic member 500. The clamping member 400 is connected to the second portion 120 and is disposed on a side of the connecting portion 220 away from the first portion 110 along the first direction X. The gas flowing from the air inlet 132 to the air outlet 142 can drive the clamping member 400 to move in a direction away from the connecting portion 220. One end of the second elastic member 500 along the first direction X is connected to the second portion 120, and the other end is connected to the clamping member 400. The second elastic member 500 can drive the clamping member 400 to move along the first direction X toward the connecting portion 220, so that the clamping member 400 is connected to the connecting portion 220 along the first direction X.

[0059] In some embodiments, the clamping member 400 is slidably coupled to the second portion 120. In some embodiments, the clamping member 400 has a spline hole extending through the clamping member 400 along the first direction X. The second portion 120 has a spline portion. The clamping member 400 is coupled to the spline portion and is movable along the first direction X. The spline portion is used to limit relative rotation between the second portion 120 and the clamping member 400.

[0060] In some embodiments, the second elastic member 500 is a butterfly spring.

[0061] Specifically, the clamping member 400 has a second static position. When the clamping member 400 is in the second static position, the turbine rotor 200 is in the first static position, and the clamping member 400 can be in contact with the connecting portion 220 of the turbine rotor 200 in the first static position. If the turbine rotor 200 rotates, friction torque is generated between the connecting portion 220 and the clamping member 400, reducing the rotational speed of the turbine rotor 200.

[0062] Specifically, the second elastic member 500 can exert a force on the clamping member 400 along the first direction X toward the first portion 110, while the compressed gas entering the accommodating chamber 150 can exert a force on the clamping member 400 along the first direction X away from the first portion 110. When the compressed gas stops entering the accommodating chamber 150, the turbine rotor 200 enters the first resting position and connects with the first portion 110. The force exerted by the second elastic member 500 on the clamping member 400 along the first direction X is greater than the force exerted by the compressed gas on the clamping member 400 along the first direction X. As a result, the clamping member 400, propelled by the second elastic member 500, enters the second resting position and connects with the turbine rotor 200 in the first resting position. When the compressed gas enters the accommodating chamber 150, the turbine rotor 200 leaves the first static position; the force applied by the second elastic member 500 to the clamping member 400 along the first direction X is less than the force applied by the compressed gas to the clamping member 400 along the first direction X. The clamping member 400 can be separated from the turbine rotor 200 under the push of the compressed gas, that is, it leaves the second static position.

[0063] In some embodiments, the turbine rotor 200 and the clamp 400 can only come into contact when the compressed gas stops entering the receiving chamber 150 .

[0064] In the above embodiment, after the compressed gas stops entering the accommodating chamber 150, the clamping member 400 capable of moving along the first direction X will be pushed by the second elastic member 500 to contact the connecting portion 220 of the turbine rotor 200. The friction torque generated between the clamping member 400 and the turbine rotor 200 can cooperate with the friction torque generated between the first portion 110 and the turbine rotor 200 to further reduce the rotational speed of the turbine rotor 200, thereby further reducing the time it takes for the turbine rotor 200 to go from rotation to stop.

[0065] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 The housing assembly 100 includes a turbine guide vane 160, which is arranged on a side of the connecting portion 220 close to the first portion 110 along the first direction X. The turbine guide vane 160 is connected to the first portion 110, and the first elastic member 300 can drive the rotating portion 210 to move so that the connecting portion 220 is connected to the turbine guide vane 160 along the first direction X.

[0066] Specifically, the turbine guide vane 160 is fixedly connected to the first portion 110 .

[0067] Specifically, the connecting portion 220 is indirectly connected to the first portion 110 through the turbine guide vane 160 .

[0068] In some embodiments, the turbine guide vanes 160 are sleeved on the first portion 110 .

[0069] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 The first portion 110 includes a first sleeve portion and a first fixed portion that are connected to each other. The first sleeve portion is connected to a side of the first fixed portion that faces the second portion 120 along the first direction X. The first fixed portion is connected to the housing assembly 100. The rotating portion 210 is inserted into the first fixed portion, and the turbine guide vane 160 is sleeved on the first sleeve portion.

[0070] In some embodiments, the housing assembly 100 further includes a fixing member, which is sequentially arranged through the turbine guide vane 160 and the first fixing portion along the first direction X. The fixing member is used to limit the displacement of the turbine guide vane 160 along the first direction X and the rotation of the turbine guide vane 160 around an axis parallel to the first direction X, so that the turbine guide vane 160 is fixedly connected to the first portion 110.

[0071] In the above embodiment, by making the turbine rotor 200 indirectly contact the first part 110 through the turbine guide vane 160 to generate a friction torque, the part of the turbine rotor 200 where the friction force is generated can be moved radially further outward. The friction force generated further outward has a larger lever arm, thereby making the friction torque larger, thereby further reducing the time the turbine rotor 200 stops rotating.

[0072] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 5 The turbine guide vane 160 includes a first body 161 and a first friction member 162. The first body 161 is sleeved on the first part 110. The first body 161 and the connecting part 220 are spaced apart along the first direction X. The first friction member 162 is connected to one side of the first body 161 facing the connecting part 220 along the first direction X. The first friction member 162 is used to connect to the connecting part 220.

[0073] Specifically, the first body 161 is sleeved with the first sleeve portion, and the first friction member 162 is disposed around the rotating portion 210 .

[0074] Specifically, the turbine rotor 200 also includes a first blade, which is connected to the connecting portion 220 along a side perpendicular to the first direction X away from the rotating portion 210; the turbine guide vane 160 also includes a second guide vane, which is connected to the first body 161 along a side perpendicular to the first direction X away from the first portion 110.

[0075] In the above embodiment, by providing the first friction member 162 to avoid contact between the first blade and the second blade having a larger dimension along the first direction X, after the compressed gas stops entering the accommodating chamber 150, the possibility of damage to the first blade and the second blade is reduced, thereby improving the service life of the turbine rotor 200 and the turbine guide vane 160, thereby improving the service life of the starter motor turbine.

[0076] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 and Figure 5 The first friction member 162 has a first surface 1621, a second surface 1622 and a first friction surface 1623. The first surface 1621 and the second surface 1622 are opposite to each other in a direction perpendicular to the first direction X and are respectively connected to the first body 161. The first surface 1621 faces the connecting portion 220; the first friction surface 1623 is arranged between the first surface 1621 and the second surface 1622 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction X and connects the first surface 1621 and the second surface 1622 respectively. The first friction surface 1623 has a first groove 1624, and the first groove 1624 runs through the first surface 1621 and the second surface 1622.

[0077] In the above embodiment, by providing first grooves 1624 on the friction surface, first grooves 1624 can form edges on first friction surface 1623. When first friction surface 1623 contacts connecting portion 220, the contact portion of connecting portion 220 and first friction surface 1623 is scraped to keep the contact portion clean. This can reduce the maintenance frequency of the starter motor turbine and improve the reliability of the starter motor turbine. Furthermore, first grooves 1624, which extend through first surface 1621 and second surface 1622, can remove impurities that have been scraped and fallen into first grooves 1624, thereby preventing impurities from filling first grooves 1624.

[0078] In some embodiments, see Figure 6The clamping member 400 includes a second body 410 and a second friction member 420. The second body 410 is sleeved on the second part 120. The second body 410 and the connecting part 220 are spaced apart along the first direction X; the second friction member 420 is connected to one side of the second body 410 toward the connecting part 220 along the first direction X, and the second friction member 420 is used to connect with the connecting part 220.

[0079] In the above embodiment, by providing a second friction member 420, the portion where the clamping member 400 is connected to the turbine rotor 200 is closer to the rotating portion 210 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction X, thereby avoiding contact between the clamping member 400 and the first blade of the turbine rotor 200, reducing the possibility of damage to the first blade, and thus improving the service life of the starter motor turbine.

[0080] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 and Figure 6 The second friction member 420 has a third surface 421, a fourth surface 422 and a second friction surface 423. The third surface 421 and the fourth surface 422 are opposite to each other in a direction perpendicular to the first direction X and are respectively connected to the second body 410. The third surface 421 faces the connecting portion 220. The second friction surface 423 is arranged between the third surface 421 and the fourth surface 422 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction X and is respectively connected to the third surface 421 and the fourth surface 422. The second friction surface 423 has a second groove 424, and the second groove 424 runs through the third surface 421 and the fourth surface 422.

[0081] In the above embodiment, by providing the second groove 424 on the friction surface, the second groove 424 can form an edge on the second friction surface 423. When the second friction surface 423 contacts the connecting portion 220, the second groove 424 can scrape the contact portion between the connecting portion 220 and the second friction surface 423, thereby keeping the contact portion clean. This can reduce the maintenance frequency of the starter motor turbine and improve the reliability of the starter motor turbine. In addition, the second groove 424, which runs through the third surface 421 and the fourth surface 422, can discharge impurities that are scraped and fall into the second groove 424, thereby preventing the impurities from filling the second groove 424.

[0082] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 6The housing assembly 100 includes a first housing 130 and a second housing 140. The first housing 130 has a first cavity 131 and an air inlet 132 communicating with the first cavity 131. The first portion 110, part of the rotating portion 210, and the connecting portion 220 are arranged in the first cavity 131. The second housing 140 has a second cavity 141 and an air outlet 142 communicating with the second cavity 141. The second portion 120 and the clamping member 400 are arranged in the second cavity 141. The second housing 140 is connected to the first housing 130. The first cavity 131 and the second cavity 141 are communicated to form a accommodating cavity 150. The clamping member 400 also includes a sliding portion 430. The sliding portion 430 surrounds the second body 410 and is connected to a side of the second body 410 close to the second housing 140 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction X. The sliding portion 430 is connected to the second body 410. The second body 410 has a silencer hole 411 that passes through the second body 410 along the first direction X.

[0083] In some embodiments, the clamping member 400 having the sound-absorbing hole 411 is a plate having the sound-absorbing hole 411 .

[0084] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 A lubrication groove is provided on one side of the sliding portion 430 toward the second shell 140 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction X. The lubrication groove extends along the circumference of the sliding portion 430. The lubrication groove is used to store grease to lubricate between the sliding portion 430 and the second shell 140, so that the clamping member 400 moves more smoothly when moving along the first direction X.

[0085] In the above embodiment, the housing assembly 100, comprising the first housing 130 and the second housing 140, exposes the accommodating cavity 150, facilitating assembly and disassembly of the turbine rotor 200, the clamping member 400, and the turbine guide vanes 160. Furthermore, the air inlet 132 provided on the first housing 130 and the air outlet 142 provided on the second housing 140 allow compressed gas entering the accommodating cavity 150 to propel the turbine rotor 200 toward the second housing 140 having the air outlet 142. Furthermore, the sliding portion 430 in contact with the second housing 140 guides the clamping member 400 during movement, reducing the possibility of deformation of the clamping member 400. Furthermore, the muffler hole 411 in the clamping member 400 reduces noise during operation of the starter motor turbine, thereby improving the performance of the starter motor turbine.

[0086] In some embodiments, see Figure 2The first shell 130 also has a first end face 133 and a positioning groove 134. The first cavity 131 forms an opening on the first end face 133. The positioning groove 134 is arranged on the first end face 133 and is arranged around the opening. The second shell 140 is connected to the first end face 133 and covers the opening. Part of the second shell 140 and part of the sliding part 430 are arranged in the positioning groove 134.

[0087] In the above embodiment, before securing the first and second housings 130, 140, the first and second housings 130, 140 are first positioned using the positioning grooves 134, thereby reducing the difficulty of installing the first and second housings 130, 140. Furthermore, the portion of the sliding portion 430 disposed within the positioning grooves 134 is located on the side of the sliding portion 430 that faces the first housing 130 along the first direction X. Therefore, gas flowing along the first housing 130 in a direction toward the first housing 130 is less likely to carry impurities and bypass the portion of the sliding portion 430 located within the positioning grooves 134 and enter between the sliding portion 430 and the housing. This reduces the maintenance frequency of the starter motor turbine and improves its reliability.

[0088] In some embodiments, see Figure 7 and Figure 8 The connecting portion 220 has a third friction surface 2211 and a fourth friction surface 2222 which are opposite to each other along the first direction X. The third friction surface 2211 is used to connect with the first portion 110, and the fourth friction surface 2222 is used to connect with the clamping member 400. The third friction surface 2211 has a third groove 2212, and the fourth friction surface 2222 has a fourth groove 2221.

[0089] In the above embodiment, the third groove 2212 and the fourth groove 2221 are provided to form ridges on the third friction surface 2211 and the fourth friction surface 2222, respectively, which can be used to scrape and clean the surfaces in contact with the third friction surface 2211 and the fourth friction surface 2222. At the same time, the third groove 2212 and the fourth groove 2221 can also be used to store impurities scraped and cleaned.

[0090] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 Along the first direction X, the orthographic projection of the first friction surface 1623 on the third friction surface 2211 is located within the third friction surface 2211, and the first friction surface 1623 can be in contact and connected with the third friction surface 2211, and generate friction force; the orthographic projection of the second friction surface 423 on the fourth friction surface 2222 is located within the fourth friction surface 2222, and the second friction surface 423 can be in contact and connected with the fourth friction surface 2222, and generate friction force.

[0091] In some embodiments, the material of the first friction surface 1623, the second friction surface 423, the third friction surface 2211, and the fourth friction surface 2222 is used to make friction materials. Specifically, the material used to make the friction plate can be one or more of asbestos and friction materials, semi-metallic friction materials, organic friction materials, and ceramic friction materials.

[0092] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 The turbine rotor 200 further includes a first friction portion 221 and a second friction portion 222. The first friction portion 221 is connected to a side of the connecting portion 220 close to the first portion 110 along the first direction X. The first friction portion 221 has a third friction surface 2211, and a first connecting surface 2213 and a second connecting surface 2214 that are opposite to each other in a direction perpendicular to the first direction X and are respectively connected to the connecting portion 220. The first connecting surface 2213 is close to the connecting portion 220. The third friction surface 2211 is arranged between the first connecting surface 2213 and the second connecting surface 2214 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction X, and respectively connects the first connecting surface 2213 and the second connecting surface 2214. The third groove 2212 passes through the first connecting surface 2213 and the second connecting surface 2214; the second friction portion 222 is connected to the side of the connecting portion 220 close to the clamping member 400 along the first direction X, the second friction portion 222 has a fourth friction surface 2222, and a third connecting surface 2223 and a fourth connecting surface 2224 that are opposite to each other in a direction perpendicular to the first direction X and are respectively connected to the connecting portion 220, the third connecting surface 2223 is close to the connecting portion 220, the fourth friction surface 2222 is arranged between the third connecting surface 2223 and the fourth connecting surface 2224 along a direction perpendicular to the first direction X, and respectively connects the third connecting surface 2223 and the fourth connecting surface 2224, and the fourth groove 2221 runs through the third connecting surface 2223 and the fourth connecting surface 2224.

[0093] In the above embodiment, the third groove 2212 passing through the first connecting surface 2213 and the second connecting surface 2214 can discharge impurities stored in the third groove 2212; the fourth groove 2221 passing through the third connecting surface 2223 and the fourth connecting surface 2224 can discharge impurities stored in the fourth groove 2221.

[0094] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 The first part 110 has a first mounting hole 111 on one side facing the second part 120 along the first direction X, and the second part 120 has a second mounting hole 121 on one side facing the first part 110 along the first direction X. The two ends of the rotating part 210 along the first direction X are respectively passed through the first mounting hole 111 and the second mounting hole 121, and the first elastic member 300 is arranged in the second mounting hole 121.

[0095] Specifically, in some embodiments, the first elastic member 300 is a wave spring to shorten the size of the second mounting hole 121 along the first direction X, so that the size of the starter motor turbine in the first direction X is smaller.

[0096] In the above embodiment, the first mounting hole 111 and the second mounting hole 121 can limit the turbine rotor 200 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction X, and can also guide the movement of the turbine rotor 200 in the first direction X.

[0097] In some embodiments, the starter motor turbine also includes a first bearing member 600 and a third elastic member 800, the first bearing member 600 is arranged in the first mounting hole 111, and the first bearing member 600 connects the rotating part 210 and the first part 110; the third elastic member 800 is arranged in the first mounting hole 111, one end of the third elastic member 800 is connected to the first bearing member 600, and the other end is connected to the first part 110.

[0098] In the above embodiment, the first bearing member 600 is provided to reduce the rotational friction of the turbine rotor 200, thereby improving the mechanical efficiency of the starter motor turbine. Furthermore, the third elastic member 800 is provided to push the first bearing member 600 toward the second portion 120 in the first direction X, allowing the first bearing member 600 to follow the movement of the rotating portion 210 in the first direction X, thereby reducing the possibility of relative movement between the rotating portion 210 and the first bearing member 600 in the first direction X.

[0099] Specifically, the rotating portion 210 has a first shoulder portion, and the first bearing component 600 is sandwiched between the first shoulder portion and the third elastic component 800 along the first direction X. The third elastic component 800 enables the first bearing component 600 to maintain contact with the first shoulder portion.

[0100] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 The starter motor turbine also includes a second bearing member 700, which is arranged in the second mounting hole 121. The second bearing member 700 connects the rotating part 210 and the second part 120. The second bearing member 700 is also used to reduce the rotational friction of the turbine rotor 200, thereby improving the mechanical efficiency of the starter motor turbine.

[0101] Specifically, the rotating portion 210 further includes a second shoulder portion. The second bearing member 700 is sandwiched between the second shoulder portion and the first elastic member 300 along the second direction. The first elastic member 300 maintains contact between the second bearing member 700 and the second shoulder portion, thereby reducing the possibility of relative movement between the rotating portion 210 and the second bearing member 700 along the first direction X. Simultaneously, the first elastic member 300 pushes the second bearing member 700 along the first direction X, thereby indirectly pushing the second shoulder portion and thereby pushing the turbine rotor 200 to move along the first direction X.
