When braking is required, the brake electromagnet 35 is energized to extend the slide 36, and the slide 36 drives the brake pad 37 to move until the brake pad 37 is in stable contact with the outer side of the locking ring 23, so that the locking ring 23 cannot continue to rotate and the brake is achieved.

[0044] An action disc 38 is fixedly arranged on the end face of the locking disc 17 away from the pressure disc 16, and the action disc 38 is located on the side of the locking ring 23 away from the multi-plate clutch 13.

[0048] The working principle of the power coupling mechanism 12 is:

[0049] When the power coupling mechanism 12 is in an uncoupled state, the first spring steel balls 34 at the outer ends of the four action rods 31 are respectively engaged with the four concave locking grooves 27 on the inner side of the locking ring 23, so that the action rods 31 slide toward the outer side of the locking plate 17 under the action of the third return spring 33, so that the inner ends of the action rods 31 are disengaged from the engaging grooves 28 of the input shaft 1. Since the inner ends of the action rods 31 do not interact with the engaging grooves 28 of the input shaft 1, the locking plate 17 remains in the initial position without sliding along the axial direction of the input shaft 1. The locking plate 17 and the pressure plate 16 both maintain their initial angles and positions. At this time, the first reset spring is in the reset state, and the locking plate 17 and the pressure plate 16 maintain the minimum distance. At this time, the four locking protrusions 19 on the pressure plate 16 are respectively inserted into the four locking grooves 18 on the locking plate 17, and the four reset protrusions 21 on the locking plate 17 are respectively located in the middle of the inner side of the four reset grooves 20 on the pressure plate 16. The two second reset springs 22 in each reset groove 20 are in the reset state. At this time, the pressure plate 16 and the outermost friction plate 14 of the multi-plate clutch 13 remain disengaged, and the friction plate 14 and the steel plate 15 inside the multi-plate clutch 13 also remain disengaged. At this time, the locking plate 41 and the outer shell of the multi-plate clutch 13 also remain disengaged. The input shaft 1 drives the locking plate 17, the pressure plate 16, the locking plate 41 and the steel plate 15 of the multi-plate clutch 13 to rotate, and the pressure plate 16 and the steel plate 15 cannot transmit power to the friction plate 14 of the multi-plate clutch 13, so that the housing of the multi-plate clutch 13 cannot rotate, and the housing of the multi-plate clutch 13 cannot drive the input gear 4 to rotate, so that the power coupling mechanism 12 is in an uncoupled state. When the locking plate 17 rotates, the first spring steel ball 34 at one end of the outer side of the action rod 31 is engaged with the inner concave locking groove 27 on the inner side of the locking ring 23, thereby driving the locking ring 23 to rotate synchronously.

[0050] When the power coupling mechanism 12 needs to be coupled, the brake mechanism is controlled to operate so that the locking ring 23 cannot rotate, while the locking plate 17 continues to rotate under the drive of the input shaft 1, so that the locking plate 17 rotates relative to the locking ring 23, and the four action rods 31 on the locking plate 17 also rotate synchronously with the locking plate 17, so that the first spring steel ball 34 at the outer end of the action rod 31 escapes from the concave locking groove 27 on the inner side of the locking ring 23, and slides on the inner side surface of the locking ring 23 until it is engaged with the first convex locking groove 26 of the locking protrusion 25 of the locking ring 23. At this time, the brake mechanism stops braking, so that the locking ring 23 and the locking plate 17 rotate synchronously again. As the first spring steel ball 34 at the outer end of the action rod 31 moves from the concave locking groove 27 to the convex locking groove 26, the action rod 31 slides toward the inner side of the locking plate 17, so that the triangular structure at the inner end of the action rod 31 is inserted into the clamping groove 28 of the input shaft 1, and the inclined surface of the triangular structure cooperates with the conical surface of the clamping groove 28, so that the action rod 31 slides toward the side of the pressure plate 16, and the action rod 31 drives the locking plate 17 to slide toward the side of the pressure plate 16, and the locking plate 17 drives the locking ring 23 to slide toward the side of the pressure plate 16 synchronously, and the locking plate 17 squeezes the pressure plate 16 through the locking plate 41, and the squeezed pressure plate 16 squeezes the outermost friction plate 14 of the multi-plate clutch 13, and the friction plate 14 squeezes the inner steel plate 15, and the transmission is passed in sequence until the friction plate 14 and the steel plate 15 make initial contact. At this time, the input shaft 1 drives the locking plate 17, the locking plate 41, the pressure plate 16, and the steel plate 15 to rotate, and the locking plate 17 and the pressure plate 16 are relatively misaligned in angle, so that the locking protrusion 19 on the pressure plate 16 and the locking groove 18 on the locking plate 17 are relatively misaligned, and the inclined surface on the locking protrusion 19 and the inclined surface of the locking groove 18 interact and squeeze, so that the pressure plate 16 continues to slide and squeeze toward one side of the multi-plate clutch 13, so that the pressure plate 16 is in close contact with the left outer friction plate 14, and the friction plate 14 is in close contact with the steel plate 15, so that the pressure plate 16 and the steel plate 15 can drive the friction plate 14 to rotate, and the friction plate 14 drives the outer shell of the multi-plate clutch 13 to rotate, and the outer shell of the multi-plate clutch 13 drives the input gear 4 to rotate, thereby entering a coupled state.In order to ensure the stability of the power coupling mechanism 12, the outer electromagnet 39 and the inner electromagnet 40 are energized to make the locking ring 23 rotate relative to the locking disk 17, and the first spring steel ball 34 at the outer end of the action rod 31 enters into the second outer convex locking latch of the locking protrusion 25. During the rotation of the locking ring 23, the second spring steel ball 43 on the outer side of the locking ring 23 contacts the locking plate 41, thereby squeezing the locking plate 41, and the card point 42 on the outer side of the locking plate 41 is engaged with the outer shell of the multi-plate clutch 13, so that the locking plate 41 can directly drive the outer shell of the multi-plate clutch 13 to rotate, and directly drive the input gear 4 to rotate, so as to keep the power coupling mechanism 12 from accidentally being uncoupled when encountering a large load.

[0051] When the power coupling mechanism 12 needs to be released from the coupled state to the uncoupled state, the control brake mechanism brakes again, so that the first spring steel ball 34 at the outer end of the action rod 31 is re-engaged from the second convex locking groove 26 of the locking protrusion 25 to the inner concave locking groove 27, and the inner end of the action rod 31 is disengaged from the engaging groove 28 of the input shaft 1 under the rebound force of the third return spring 33. Under the rebound force of the steel plate 15 and the friction plate 14 of the multi-plate clutch 13, the pressure plate 16 and the locking plate 17 slide toward the side away from the multi-plate clutch 13, so that the steel plate 15 and the friction plate 14 and the friction plate 14 and the pressure plate 16 are disengaged, and the locking plate 17 returns to the initial position. Under the action of the first return spring and the second return spring 22, the locking protrusion corresponds to the locking groove 18 again and is engaged again. In this way, the power coupling mechanism 12 is restored to the uncoupled state, and the input shaft 1 can no longer drive the input gear 4 to rotate.
