It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters represent similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once a certain item is defined in an accompanying drawing, it does not need to be further discussed in subsequent drawings.
[0041] See also Figures 1 to 7As shown, according to an embodiment of the present application, a screw mechanism is provided, which includes a screw shaft 30 , a first fixing portion 10 , a second fixing portion 20 , a first bearing assembly 40 and a second bearing assembly 50 .
[0042] The screw shaft 30 is provided with a cooling channel 31, which extends along the axial direction of the screw shaft 30, and the first end of the screw shaft 30 has a first opening 32, which is connected to the cooling channel 31, and the second end of the screw shaft 30 has a second opening 33, which is connected to the cooling channel 31. The first fixing part 10 is arranged at the first end of the screw shaft 30, and the first fixing part 10 is provided with a first cooling chamber 12 and a first channel 11, and the first channel 11 is connected to the first cooling chamber 12. The second fixing part 20 is arranged at the second end of the screw shaft 30, and the second fixing part 20 is provided with a second cooling chamber 22 and a second channel 21, and the second channel 21 is connected to the second cooling chamber 22. The first bearing assembly 40 is sleeved on the screw shaft 30, and the first bearing assembly 40 is located in the first cooling chamber 12. The second bearing assembly 50 is sleeved on the screw shaft 30, and the second bearing assembly 50 is located in the second cooling chamber 22. The first end of the screw shaft 30 rotatably passes through the first cooling chamber 12 , and the second end of the screw shaft 30 rotatably passes through the second cooling chamber 22 . The first cooling chamber 12 is connected to the second cooling chamber 22 through the cooling channel 31 .
[0043] Specifically, the first fixing part 10 and the second fixing part 20 are used to be connected to a predetermined device. Usually, the coolant or cooling oil is continuously injected into the first channel 11. When the coolant or cooling oil enters the first cooling chamber 12 from the first channel 11, since the first bearing assembly 40 is arranged in the first cooling chamber 12, the coolant or cooling oil flows to take away the heat on the first bearing assembly 40. After that, the coolant enters the cooling channel 31 of the screw shaft 30 from the first opening 32, so that the heat in the screw is taken away under the flow of the coolant or cooling oil. Subsequently, the coolant or cooling oil enters the second cooling chamber 22 from the second opening 33, and the coolant and cooling oil contact the second bearing assembly 50, so as to take away the heat on the second bearing assembly 50, and the coolant or cooling oil finally flows into other components through the second channel 21. When the cooling oil is used to cool the screw mechanism, the cooling oil can also lubricate the first bearing assembly 40 and the second bearing assembly 50, thereby avoiding excessive friction between the bearing and the screw shaft 30.
[0044] Compared with the prior art, the present application is provided with a first cooling chamber 12 and a second cooling chamber 22 on the first fixing portion 10 and the second fixing portion 20, respectively, and a cooling channel 31 is provided on the screw shaft 30. By directing the coolant or cooling oil from the first cooling chamber 12 to the cooling channel 31 and then to the directional flow channel of the second cooling chamber 22, the first bearing assembly 40, the screw shaft 30 and the second bearing assembly 50 can all obtain a better heat dissipation effect, thereby avoiding the screw shaft 30, the first bearing assembly 40 or the second bearing assembly 50 from being overheated, thereby affecting the accuracy of the screw mechanism. It is worth mentioning that the first end of the screw shaft 30 usually needs to be connected to the motor, so the first end of the screw shaft 30 needs to pass through the first cooling chamber 12, and the second end of the screw shaft 30 does not need to be connected to other equipment. Therefore, in order to improve the cooling effect of the screw shaft 30, the second end of the screw shaft 30 is arranged in the second cooling chamber 22.
[0045] Further, the minimum outer diameter D1 of the screw shaft 30 and the diameter D2 of the cooling channel 31 satisfy the relationship: 2.25≤D1 / D2≤4.375, wherein D2 satisfies the relationship: 16mm≤D2≤20mm.
[0046] In this embodiment, the diameter D2 of the cooling channel 31 is positively correlated with the heat dissipation capacity of the screw shaft 30. If D1 / D2 is greater than 4.375, the cooling channel 31 is smaller than the screw shaft 30, which will cause the refrigerant in the cooling channel 31 to dissipate heat unevenly to the screw shaft 30. For example, the outer surface of the screw shaft 30 is difficult to cool down by the refrigerant in the cooling channel 31. If D1 / D2 is less than 2.25, the cooling channel 31 is too large relative to the screw shaft 30, which reduces the transmission stiffness of the screw shaft 30 and ultimately makes the screw shaft 30 more susceptible to deformation. The values of D1 / D2 can be 2.25, 2.5, 2.725, 3, 3.25, 3.5, 3.725, 4, 4.25 and 4.375. The values of D2 can be 16mm, 17mm, 18mm, 19mm and 20mm.
[0047] Furthermore, the first fixed portion 10 includes a first bearing seat 101 and a first end cover assembly 102, the first bearing seat 101 is sealed and connected to the first end cover assembly 102, and along the axial direction of the screw shaft 30, a first locking assembly 60 is provided on the side of the first bearing assembly 40 away from the first bearing seat 101; the first end cover assembly 102 is provided with a first groove 121, and the first bearing seat 101 is provided with a second groove 122, the first groove 121 and the second groove 122 are arranged to form a first cooling chamber 12, the first locking assembly 60 is provided in the first groove 121, and the first locking assembly 60 has a gap with the inner wall surface of the first groove 121, the first channel 11 is connected to the first groove 121, and the first bearing assembly 40 is embedded in the second groove 122.
[0048] Specifically, in the present embodiment, the first locking assembly 60 is used to lock the first bearing assembly 40 to prevent the first bearing assembly 40 from being subjected to axial force when the screw shaft 30 rotates, causing the first bearing assembly 40 to move in the axial direction. The first bearing assembly 40 is embedded in the second groove 122, so that the outer ring of the first bearing assembly 40 abuts against the inner wall surface of the second groove 122, thereby preventing the outer ring of the first bearing assembly 40 from rotating with the screw shaft 30 when the screw shaft 30 rotates. In addition, since there is a gap between the first locking assembly 60 and the inner wall surface of the first groove 121, and the first opening 32 rotates with the rotation of the screw shaft 30, when the refrigerant enters the first groove 121 from the first channel 11, the refrigerant can be stored in the first groove 121 for a certain period of time, thereby increasing the heat transfer time between the refrigerant and the first bearing assembly 40 and the outer surface of the first end of the screw shaft 30, thereby improving the cooling effect of the refrigerant on the screw mechanism. On the other hand, the first groove 121 is connected to the second groove 122 . When the refrigerant is cooling oil, the cooling oil enters the second groove 122 , which can not only dissipate heat for the first bearing assembly 40 , but also lubricate the first bearing assembly 40 .
[0049] In addition, the first end cover assembly 102 includes a first flange 1021, a second flange 1022 and a cover plate 1023. The first flange 1021 is fixedly connected to the first bearing seat 101, and a sealing ring 90 is arranged between the first flange 1021 and the first bearing seat 101. The second flange 1022 is connected to the end of the first flange 1021 away from the first bearing seat 101, and a sealing ring 90 is also arranged between the second flange 1022 and the first flange 1021. The cover plate 1023 is connected to the second flange 1022, and a avoidance hole is opened on the cover plate 1023, and the avoidance hole is communicated with the first groove 121, and the avoidance hole is used to avoid the screw shaft 30, so that the screw shaft 30 can pass through the first cooling channel 31. A first mounting groove 124 is formed on one side of the second flange 1022 close to the cover plate 1023 . A skeleton oil seal 83 is embedded in the first mounting groove 124 , and the skeleton oil seal 83 is sleeved on the outer circumference of the screw shaft 30 .
[0050] Further, the first groove 121 includes a first circular groove, and along the radial direction of the screw shaft 30, the minimum distance A between the first locking assembly 60 and the inner wall surface of the first circular groove satisfies the relationship: 24mm≤A≤28mm. In addition, along the axial direction of the screw shaft 30, the minimum distance B between the first locking assembly 60 and the inner wall surface of the first circular groove satisfies the relationship: 13mm≤B≤17mm.
[0051] Specifically, the minimum distance A between the first locking assembly 60 and the inner wall of the first circular groove along the radial direction of the screw shaft 30, and the minimum distance B between the first locking assembly 60 and the inner wall of the first circular groove along the axial direction of the screw shaft 30 are related to the time that the refrigerant can be stored in the first groove 121. That is to say, there is a redundant space between the first circular groove and the first locking assembly 60, so that the refrigerant can be stored in the redundant space. If A is less than 24mm or B is less than 13mm, the refrigerant entering the first groove 121 from the first channel 11 stays in the first groove 121 for too short a time, so that the refrigerant cannot fully contact the outer peripheral surface of the screw shaft 30 and the first bearing assembly 40, thereby reducing the heat dissipation effect on the screw shaft 30 and the first bearing assembly 40. If A is greater than 28 mm or B is greater than 17 mm, the first bearing seat 101 and the first end cover assembly 102 need to be larger, that is, the first flange 1021 and the second flange 1022 need to be non-standard parts, resulting in excessively high manufacturing costs for the screw mechanism.
[0052] Furthermore, the second fixed portion 20 includes a second bearing seat 201 and a second end cover assembly 202, the second bearing seat 201 is sealed and connected to the second end cover assembly 202, and along the axial direction of the screw shaft 30, a second locking assembly 70 is provided on the side of the second bearing assembly 50 away from the second bearing seat 201; the second end cover assembly 202 is provided with a third groove 221, and the second bearing seat 201 is provided with a fourth groove 222, the third groove 221 and the fourth groove 222 are arranged to form a second cooling chamber 22, the second locking assembly 70 is arranged in the third groove 221, and the second locking assembly 70 has a gap with the inner wall surface of the third groove 221, the second channel 21 is connected to the third groove 221, and the second bearing assembly 50 is embedded in the fourth groove 222.
[0053] Similarly, the second bearing assembly 50 is embedded in the fourth groove 222, so that the outer ring of the second bearing assembly 50 is stopped on the inner wall surface of the fourth groove 222, thereby preventing the outer ring of the second bearing assembly 50 from rotating when the screw shaft 30 rotates. The second locking assembly 70 is used to lock the second bearing assembly 50 to prevent the second bearing assembly 50 from moving in the axial direction of the screw shaft 30. When the refrigerant enters the second cooling chamber 22 from the cooling channel 31, since there is a certain gap between the second locking member 71 and the inner wall surface of the third groove 221, that is, the third groove 221 can store a certain amount of refrigerant, thereby increasing the heat exchange time between the refrigerant and the second bearing assembly 50, so as to improve the heat dissipation effect of the refrigerant on the second bearing assembly 50. On the other hand, since the third groove 221 is connected to the fourth groove 222, when the refrigerant is cooling oil, the cooling oil can not only dissipate heat for the second bearing assembly 50, but also lubricate the second bearing assembly 50. That is to say, this embodiment can dissipate heat for the screw shaft 30, the first bearing assembly 40 and the second bearing assembly 50 through a simple structural design, and can also provide lubrication for the first bearing assembly 40 and the second bearing assembly 50 while dissipating heat, thereby preventing the first bearing assembly 40 and the second bearing assembly 50 from having excessive friction with the screw shaft 30, which causes the first bearing assembly 40 and the second bearing assembly 50 to be easily deformed. In this embodiment, the second end cover assembly 202 includes a third flange 2021, which is connected to the second bearing seat 201, and a sealing ring 90 is provided between the third flange 2021 and the second bearing seat 201.
[0054] Further, the third groove 221 includes a second circular groove, and along the radial direction of the screw shaft 30, the minimum distance C between the second locking assembly 70 and the inner wall surface of the second circular groove satisfies the relationship: 8mm≤C≤10mm. Along the axial direction of the screw shaft 30, the minimum distance D between the second locking assembly 70 and the inner wall surface of the second circular groove satisfies the relationship: 8mm≤D≤12mm.
[0055] It is understandable that when C is less than 8mm or D is less than 8mm, the redundant space in the third groove 221 is less, that is, the refrigerant that can be stored in the third groove 221 is reduced, and the refrigerant cannot fully contact the screw shaft 30 and the second bearing assembly 50, resulting in a reduction in the cooling effect of the refrigerant on the screw shaft 30 and the second bearing assembly 50. When C is greater than 10mm and D is greater than 12mm, the third flange 2021 cannot use standard parts, and the third flange 2021 needs to be customized additionally, resulting in excessively high manufacturing costs of the screw mechanism. The values of C can be 8mm, 8.5mm, 9mm, 9.5mm and 10mm, and the values of D can be 8mm, 8.5mm, 9mm, 9.5mm, 10mm, 10.5mm, 11mm, 11.5mm and 12mm.
[0056] It is worth mentioning that, since the first end of the screw shaft 30 needs to pass through the first cooling chamber 12, and the second end of the screw shaft 30 is arranged in the first cooling chamber 12, when the first cooling chamber 12 and the second cooling chamber 22 have the same volume, the heat dissipation capacity of the second end of the screw shaft 30 is higher than the heat dissipation capacity of the first end of the screw shaft 30. In order to improve the heat dissipation capacity of the first end of the screw shaft 30, it is necessary to set the first flange 1021 on the first bearing seat 101, and the size of the second flange 1022 should be larger than the size of the third flange 2021, that is, the volume of the redundant space for storing the refrigerant in the first groove 121 should be larger than the volume of the redundant space for storing the refrigerant in the third groove 221, thereby making the volume of the refrigerant stored in the first groove 121 within a certain period of time larger, ensuring that the refrigerant is fully in contact with the outer surface of the first end of the screw shaft 30, so as to improve the heat dissipation effect of the first end of the screw shaft 30. In addition, in the present embodiment, the first groove 121 and the third groove 221 are both configured as circular grooves to increase the redundant volumes of the first groove 121 and the third groove 221 .
[0057] Furthermore, the screw mechanism also includes an oil tank (not shown in the figure), which is connected to the first channel 11 through an oil pipeline (not shown in the figure), and a temperature control component (not shown in the figure) is provided on the oil tank, which is used to adjust the temperature of the oil in the oil tank.
[0058] When the screw mechanism is actually working, the oil tank is connected to the first channel 11 through the oil pipeline, so that the oil can enter the first cooling chamber 12 from the first channel 11. In some embodiments, the oil tank also includes a return pipe (not shown in the figure), which is connected between the second channel 21 and the oil tank, that is, the refrigerant in the second cooling chamber 22 can flow back to the oil tank through the return pipe to achieve the recycling of the oil. In addition, the oil tank also includes a temperature control component, which is used to adjust the temperature of the oil. When the screw shaft 30 works at a high speed, the screw shaft 30, the first bearing assembly 40 and the second bearing assembly 50 generate too much heat. At this time, the temperature control component can reduce the temperature of the oil, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the screw mechanism. On the other hand, when the oil enters the oil tank through the loop pipeline, the temperature of the oil flowing into the oil tank is high. The temperature control component can adjust the temperature of the oil to avoid the oil circulating into the first cooling chamber 12 from being too high. In some embodiments, the screw mechanism further includes a controller and a speed detector, the speed detector is disposed on the screw shaft 30, the speed detector is used to detect the speed of the screw shaft 30, the controller is electrically connected to the speed detector and the temperature control component, and when the speed detector detects that the speed of the screw is higher than a predetermined value, the controller controls the temperature control component to reduce the temperature of the oil in the oil tank. In addition, quick-change joints are installed on both the first channel 11 and the second channel 21, the oil pipeline is connected between the quick-change joint on the first channel 11 and the oil tank, and the return pipeline is connected between the quick-change joint on the second channel 21 and the oil tank.
[0059] Further, along the axial direction of the screw, the first bearing assembly 40 is provided with a first stopper 81 and a first locking assembly 60 on both sides thereof, the first stopper 81 abuts against the side wall of the first cooling chamber 12 close to the second cooling chamber 22, the first locking assembly 60 is provided on the side of the first bearing assembly 40 away from the first stopper 81, and is sleeved on the outer periphery of the screw shaft 30, the first locking assembly 60 is used to abut against the inner ring of the first bearing assembly, so that the outer ring of the first bearing assembly abuts against the first stopper 81. 1; along the axial direction of the screw, the second stopper 82 and the second locking assembly 70 are respectively provided on both sides of the second bearing assembly 50, the second stopper 82 abuts against the side wall of the second cooling chamber 22 close to the first cooling chamber 12, the second locking assembly 70 is arranged on the side of the second bearing assembly 50 away from the second stopper 82, and is sleeved on the outer periphery of the screw shaft 30, the second locking assembly 70 is used to abut against the inner ring of the second bearing group, so that the outer ring of the second bearing group abuts against the second stopper 82.
[0060] Specifically, when the screw shaft 30 rotates, after the screw shaft 30 is heated, the screw shaft 30 will extend toward both ends along its own axial direction, thereby causing the outer peripheral surface of the screw to be easily deformed, thereby reducing the accuracy of the screw. In this embodiment, since the first locking assembly 60 is pressed against the inner ring of the first bearing assembly 40, and the outer ring of the first bearing assembly 40 is stopped on the first locking member 61; at the same time, the first locking member 61 is pressed against the first bearing seat 101. Since the first bearing seat 101 is usually fixed on a predetermined device, according to the reaction force, the first bearing seat 101 will eventually apply an external force along the direction from the second fixing portion 20 to the first fixing portion 10 to the screw shaft 30, so that the first end of the screw shaft 30 is extended and subjected to the external force, thereby preventing the outer peripheral surface of the screw shaft 30 from being deformed. Similarly, the second bearing seat 201 will apply an external force along the direction from the first fixed portion 10 to the second fixed portion 20 to the screw shaft 30, so that the second end of the screw shaft 30 is extended and then subjected to the external force to avoid deformation of the outer peripheral surface of the screw shaft 30. It is worth mentioning that in this embodiment, the first stopper 81 is used to prevent the outer ring of the first bearing assembly 40 from directly abutting against the first bearing seat 101, so as to avoid the uneven contact surface between the first bearing seat 101 and the first bearing assembly 40, resulting in damage to the first bearing assembly 40. Similarly, the second stopper 82 is also used to prevent the uneven contact surface between the second bearing assembly 50 and the second bearing seat 201, resulting in excessive force on a part of the second bearing assembly 50, thereby causing damage to the second bearing assembly 50.
[0061] Furthermore, the first locking assembly 60 includes a first locking member 61 and a third stop member 62, the third stop member 62 is arranged between the first locking member 61 and the first bearing assembly 40, and the first locking member 61 can move along the axial direction so that the third stop member 62 stops against the inner ring of the first bearing assembly 40; the second locking assembly 70 includes a second locking member 71 and a fourth stop member, the fourth stop member is arranged between the second locking member 71 and the second bearing assembly 50, and the second locking member 71 can move along the axial direction so that the fourth stop member stops against the inner ring of the second bearing assembly 50.
[0062] In this embodiment, the third stopper 62 and the fourth stopper are both sleeved on the outer periphery of the screw shaft 30. When the first locking member 61 is locked, the third stopper 62 abuts against the inner ring of the first bearing assembly 40. Similarly, when the second locking member 71 is locked, the fourth stopper abuts against the inner ring of the second bearing assembly 50. At this time, the reaction force applied by the first bearing seat 101 to the first stopper 81 is finally transmitted between the third stopper 62 and the first locking member 61, and then the first locking member 61 transmits the reaction force to the first end of the screw shaft 30, thereby preventing the first end of the screw shaft 30 from being easily deformed after being heated and stretched. Similarly, the reaction force applied by the second bearing seat 201 to the second stopper 82 is finally transmitted between the third stopper 62 and the first locking member 61, and then the first locking member 61 transmits the reaction force to the second end of the screw shaft 30, thereby preventing the second end of the screw shaft 30 from being easily deformed after being heated and stretched. Of course, in some embodiments, the third stopper 62 and the fourth stopper may not be provided, and the same effect can be achieved by directly abutting the first bearing assembly 40 with the first locking member 61, and directly abutting the first bearing assembly 40 with the second locking member 71. On the other hand, the third stopper 62 abuts against the inner ring of the first rotor assembly, and the first stopper 81 abuts against the outer ring of the first rotor assembly, thereby limiting the first bearing assembly 40. When the first bearing assembly 40 has multiple bearings, the abutting force can reduce the gap between the multiple bearings in the axial direction. Similarly, the second bearing assembly 50 is abutted between the second stopper 82 and the fourth stopper. When the second bearing assembly 50 includes multiple bearings, the gap between the multiple bearings can be reduced.
[0063] As attached Figure 2 As shown, the first bearing assembly 40 includes four bearings, and the four bearings are arranged in sequence along the axial direction of the screw shaft 30. Along the direction from the first fixed part 10 to the second fixed part 20, the first bearing is arranged in series with the second bearing, the second bearing is arranged back to back with the third bearing, and the fourth bearing is arranged in series with the third bearing. The arrangement of the bearings in this embodiment can prevent the screw shaft 30 from moving in the axial direction to a certain extent, that is, when the screw shaft 30 has a tendency to move in the direction from the second fixed part 20 to the first fixed part 10, the third bearing and the fourth bearing will apply a force in the direction from the first fixed part 10 to the second fixed part 20 to the screw shaft 30, thereby preventing the screw shaft 30 from moving in the direction from the second fixed part 20 to the first fixed part 10. When the screw shaft 30 has a tendency to move in the direction from the first fixed part 10 to the second fixed part 20, the first bearing and the second bearing will apply a force in the direction from the second fixed part 20 to the first fixed part 10 to the screw shaft 30, thereby preventing the screw shaft 30 from moving in the axial direction.
[0064] As attached Figure 3As shown, the second bearing assembly 50 includes three bearings, which are arranged in sequence along the direction from the first fixed part 10 to the second fixed part 20, and the first bearing is arranged in series with the second bearing, and the second bearing is arranged face to face with the third bearing. Similarly, when the second end of the screw shaft 30 has a tendency to move in the direction from the second fixed part 20 to the first fixed part 10, the first bearing and the second bearing will apply a force in the direction from the first fixed part 10 to the second fixed part 20 to the screw shaft 30 to prevent the screw shaft 30 from moving in the direction from the second fixed part 20 to the first fixed part 10. When the second end of the screw shaft 30 has a tendency to move in the direction from the first fixed part 10 to the second fixed part 20, the third fixed part will apply an opposite force to the screw shaft 30, thereby preventing the second end of the screw shaft 30 from moving. It is understandable that since the first cooling chamber 12 is larger and the second cooling chamber 22 is smaller, the number of bearings in the first bearing assembly 40 should be greater than the number of bearings in the second bearing assembly 50, thereby improving the supporting effect of the first bearing assembly 40 on the screw shaft 30.
[0065] In some embodiments, a first sealing groove 123 is further provided at the bottom of the second groove 122, and a skeleton oil seal 83 is embedded in the first sealing groove 123. A second sealing groove 223 is provided at the bottom of the fourth groove 222, and a skeleton oil seal 83 is embedded in the second sealing groove 223, thereby preventing the refrigerant from flowing out of the gap between the screw shaft 30 and the second groove 122 or the fourth groove 222.
[0066] On the other hand, the present application also provides a device, which includes the screw mechanism in the above embodiment, and thus the device includes all the technical effects of the screw mechanism in the above embodiment. Since the technical effects of the screw mechanism have been described in detail above, they will not be repeated here.
[0067] In summary, the present application provides a screw mechanism and a device, which includes a screw mechanism, and the screw mechanism includes a first fixed part 10, a second fixed part 20, a screw shaft 30, a first rotor assembly and a second rotor assembly. By setting a first cooling chamber 12 on the first fixed part 10, a second cooling chamber 22 on the second fixed part 20, and a cooling channel 31 on the screw shaft 30, the refrigerant passes through the first cooling chamber 12, the cooling channel 31 and the second cooling chamber 22 in turn, and cools the first rotor assembly, the screw shaft 30 and the second rotor assembly, thereby avoiding excessive temperature of the screw shaft 30, the first rotor assembly or the second rotor assembly, which leads to reduced accuracy of the screw mechanism. In addition, in the present application, there is a gap between the first groove 121 and the first locking assembly 60, and there is a gap between the second groove 122 and the second locking assembly 70, so that the refrigerant entering the first groove 121 from the first channel 11 can be stored in the first groove 121 for a certain period of time, and the refrigerant entering the second groove 122 from the cooling channel 31 can be stored in the second groove 122 for a certain period of time, so as to improve the cooling effect of the refrigerant on the first rotor assembly, the second rotor assembly and the screw shaft 30. On the other hand, the present application is also provided with an oil tank, and a temperature control component is provided on the oil tank. The refrigerant uses oil, which can dissipate heat to the screw mechanism on the one hand, and lubricate the first bearing assembly 40 and the second bearing assembly 50 while dissipating heat on the other hand. At the same time, the temperature of the oil can be adjusted by the temperature control component according to the working condition of the screw shaft 30, so as to facilitate the normal operation of the screw shaft 30.
