[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown:

[0025] Embodiment 1: The present invention provides a composite linear drive device based on a worm wheel, a worm and a screw, comprising a worm 1 , a worm wheel 2 meshing on one side of the worm 1 , and a screw 3 being threadedly connected to the middle of the worm wheel 2 .

[0026] As can be seen from the above, in this device, the rotation of the worm 1 can drive the worm wheel 2 to rotate, and the rotation of the worm wheel 2 can make the screw 3 move up and down, thereby achieving a linear motion effect;

[0027] A threaded hole is provided in the middle of the worm wheel 2 for threaded connection with the screw rod 3;

[0028] When the worm wheel 2 is driven by the worm 1 to rotate, this rotational motion is converted into the linear motion of the screw 3;

[0029] The external threads of the screw 3 include, but are not limited to, ordinary threads, trapezoidal threads, rectangular threads, serrated threads and pipe threads.

[0030] Embodiment 2: This embodiment is basically the same as Embodiment 1, except that it further includes a driving component, a fixing component and a component to be driven;

[0031] The driving assembly is connected to the worm 1 and is used to drive the worm 1 to rotate;

[0032] The driving component is installed on the fixed component, the worm wheel 2 is installed on the fixed component through a bearing, and the screw rod 3 is connected to the component to be driven.

[0033] As can be seen from the above, the driving assembly in this embodiment, as the power source of the entire device, is closely connected to the worm 1 and is responsible for providing stable and controllable rotational power to the worm. It ensures that the worm can rotate at a predetermined speed and direction, thereby driving the worm wheel 2 meshing with it to rotate synchronously;

[0034] In order to ensure the stability and reliability of the device, the driving component is installed on the fixed component, and the worm wheel 2 is installed on the fixed component through the bearing, which reduces the friction resistance of the worm wheel during rotation, improves the transmission efficiency, and ensures that the worm wheel can rotate steadily and smoothly. At the same time, the use of the bearing also prolongs the service life of the worm wheel and reduces the maintenance cost of the device;

[0035] When the worm wheel rotates, the screw moves linearly along the axial direction under the action of the thread, thereby driving the driven component to move synchronously, which not only realizes the motion conversion from rotation to linear motion, but also ensures that the driven component can move according to the predetermined trajectory and speed;

[0036] In summary, this embodiment further improves the structure and function of the compound linear drive device by adding a driving component, a fixed component and a component to be driven. This design not only improves the practicality and reliability of the device, but also provides a broader space and possibility for its application in industrial automation, mechanical equipment and other fields.

[0037] Embodiment 3: This embodiment is basically the same as Embodiment 1, except that it further includes a driving component, a fixing component and a component to be driven;

[0038] The driving assembly is connected to the worm 1 and is used to drive the worm 1 to rotate;

[0039] The worm 1 and the worm wheel 2 are both mounted on the driven component through bearings, and the driving component is fixedly mounted on the driven component;

[0040] Both ends of the screw rod 3 are fixedly mounted on the fixing assembly.

[0041] As can be seen from the above, the driving assembly in this embodiment, as the power source of the entire device, is closely connected to the worm 1 and is responsible for providing stable and controllable rotational power to the worm. It ensures that the worm can rotate at a predetermined speed and direction, thereby driving the worm wheel 2 meshing with it to rotate synchronously;

[0042] The worm 1 and the worm wheel 2 are both mounted on the driven component through bearings, which reduces the friction resistance during the rotation process, improves the transmission efficiency, and ensures that the worm and the worm wheel can rotate steadily and smoothly; at the same time, since they are both mounted on the driven component, and both ends of the screw 3 are fixedly mounted on the fixed component; when the driving component is working, the driven component will move up and down along the screw 3 to reach a specified height;

[0043] The component to be driven can also be guided by a guide rod so that it can move up and down along the screw rod 3 stably.

[0044] In summary, the third embodiment introduces a driving component, a fixing component and a driven component, so that the worm 1 and the worm wheel 2 move up and down along the screw 3 through the driven component. This design not only improves the transmission efficiency and stability, but also provides a wider space and possibility for the application of the device in the fields of industrial automation, mechanical equipment, etc.

[0045] Embodiment 4: This embodiment is basically the same as Embodiments 3 and 4, except that it further includes a component to be rotated;

[0046] The component to be rotated is fixedly mounted on the worm gear 2 .

[0047] As can be seen from the above, when the worm 1 rotates and drives the worm wheel 2 to rotate synchronously, the component to be rotated will also rotate accordingly, which brings more application scenarios to the device;

[0048] For example, in automation equipment that requires both linear and rotary motion, this device can play an important role. It can simultaneously achieve the linear movement of the driven component and the rotary motion of the rotating component by driving the worm to rotate, thus meeting complex motion control requirements;

[0049] In summary, Example 4 further broadens the application scenarios and functional scope of the composite linear drive device by introducing a component to be rotated and adjusting the structure of the device accordingly. This design not only improves the practicality and flexibility of the device, but also provides a more diversified and complex solution for its application in industrial automation, mechanical equipment and other fields.
