Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the technical field of mechanical transmission and relates to an electric drive assembly and construction machinery. Background Art

[0002] Currently, construction machinery products (such as bulldozers) are developing towards electric drive assemblies, and it is necessary to add drive motors under the limited space layout of the bulldozer frame. The high-speed motor input requires a large reduction ratio for the final drive, and the planetary reduction structure with three or more stages further increases the volume space of the final drive, bringing challenges to the axial connection space between the drive motor and the final drive of the bulldozer. At the same time, in order to meet the requirements of the electric drive bulldozer for driving and parking on slopes, the drive motor of a general bulldozer has dynamic braking, which is often used as the service brake, and a normally closed braking structure is designed in the final drive as the parking brake. When the total mass of the bulldozer is greater than 100 tons, a single drive motor dynamic braking requires a significant increase in its volume space to arrange high-power braking resistors and cooling and lubrication pipelines, and it is easy to cause the braking resistor of the motor to overload and fail during long-term braking, and it can no longer meet the safe and reliable service braking of the bulldozer on large slopes. In addition, in order to improve its operation efficiency, the continuous increase in the total mass and power of the bulldozer makes the required value of the braking torque of its parking brake also continuously increase. When a normally closed parking wet brake is integrally designed at the input end of the final drive, problems such as heat generation of the friction plate during driving and high temperature of the transmission system often occur, and its safety and reliability are difficult to guarantee. In working scenarios such as open-pit coal mines and mines, the operating conditions of bulldozers are harsh, with large loads and large parking slopes, which put higher requirements on the power performance, braking performance, lubrication, and reliability of their electric drive assemblies. Especially when going down long slopes, a large amount of heat will be generated during service braking, and efficient cooling design of the brake has also become the key to the design.

[0003] Therefore, in order to adapt to different vehicle total masses, especially the strict requirements of large-tonnage and large-horsepower electric drive crawler bulldozers for power performance and braking performance, it is of great practical significance to newly design an electric drive assembly with highly reliable service braking and parking braking.

[0025] In some embodiments, as Figure 1As shown in the figure, the electric drive assembly further includes a support shaft 2-1 connected to the vehicle frame 14. The first-stage gear ring 2-2 and the second- and third-stage gear rings 3-3 are both fixed on the support shaft 2-1. The drive motor housing is connected to the support shaft 2-1.

The support shaft 2-1, as the main load-bearing component of the electric drive assembly, is finally connected to the vehicle frame 14 of the construction machinery by the fifth bolt 10.

[0026] In this embodiment, the drive motor 1-1 is a permanent magnet synchronous motor, equipped with a braking resistor with a certain power, which can consume the back electromotive force generated during the braking process of the drive motor and achieve dynamic vehicle braking, and to a certain extent, perform the function of vehicle service braking.

[0027] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 3 shown in the figure, the parking brake adopts a caliper disc parking brake, including a brake disc 1-2, a brake 1-3, a spline sleeve 1-4, and an end cover 1-5. The external spline at the first end of the rotating shaft of the drive motor 1-1 is in mating connection with the internal spline of the spline sleeve 1-4, and the spline sleeve 1-4 is axially limited by the end cover 1-5 to prevent its axial movement.

The planetary pin shaft pressing plates 3-7 fix the second-stage planetary pin shafts 3-6 on the second-stage planetary carrier 3-4 to prevent the axial movement of the second-stage planetary pin shafts 3-6, and the power is output through the second-stage planetary carrier 3-4.

[0031] The third-stage planetary gear set 4 includes a third-stage sun gear 4-1, third-stage planetary gears 4-2, a third-stage planetary carrier 4-3, third-stage planetary pin shafts 4-4, a sprocket 4-5, and a hub body 4-6.

In addition, for the convenience of manufacturing, the sprocket 4-5 and the hub body 4-6 are designed separately, and the two are connected by an eighth bolt 13.

[0032] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6As shown in the figure, the service brake 5 includes a first housing 5-1, a second housing 5-2, a piston 5-3, a driving friction plate 5-4, a driven friction plate 5-5, a first sealing ring 5-6, a second sealing ring 5-7, a spring 5-8, a guide bolt 5-9, a third sealing ring 5-10 and a floating oil seal 5-11. The first housing 5-1 and the second housing 5-2 are detachably and sealingly connected to form a service brake housing. Specifically, the first housing 5-1 and the second housing 5-2 are sealed by the third sealing ring 5-10 and connected together by the seventh bolt 12. The driving friction plate 5-4 is connected to the outer spline of the hub 4-6 through an internal spline.

Specifically, the left end of the spring 5-8 is limitedly installed on the nut of the guide bolt 5-9, and the right end of the spring 5-8 is limitedly installed on the right end of the piston 5-3.

[0033] The second housing 5-2, the piston 5-3, the first sealing ring 5-6, the second sealing ring 5-7 and the pressure oil port 521 together form a hydraulic cavity. The pressure oil port 521 on the second housing 5-2 is communicated with the hydraulic cavity. When the service brake 5 works, under the action of high-pressure oil, the piston is pushed to squeeze the driving friction plate 5-4 and the driven friction plate 5-5 to generate a frictional torque, preventing the hub 4-6 from rotating and generating a service brake. When the service brake 5 does not work, the piston 5-3 returns under the action of the spring 5-8 and disengages from the driving friction plate 5-4 and the driven friction plate 5-5, thus releasing the service brake.

[0034] In this embodiment, as Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 shown, the service brake 5 is forced lubricated and cooled. A floating oil seal 5-11 is installed between the first housing 5-1 and the hub 4-6 to isolate from the external environment and is isolated from the internal oil cavity of the final drive assembly through the floating oil seal. In some embodiments, the service brake 5 further includes a cooling oil inlet 522, a cooling oil outlet 523, and a housing oil passage 524 that connects the cooling oil inlet with the cooling oil outlet, the housing oil passage is connected to the active friction plate 5-4 and the driven friction plate 5-5, the cooling oil outlet is connected to the oil inlet of the radiator, and the oil outlet of the radiator is connected to the cooling oil inlet, forming a cooling circulation oil circuit. The cooling oil enters the active friction plate 5-4 and the driven friction plate 5-5 from the cooling oil inlet 522 and the housing oil passage 524, and the high-temperature hot oil generated during the braking process flows out from the cooling oil outlet 523 and is connected to the radiator of the vehicle. After the oil temperature is reduced by the radiator, the cooling oil flows back to the cooling oil inlet of the service brake 5, forming a cooling circulation oil circuit, so as to avoid the friction plate burning caused by excessively high driving brake temperature under long downhill conditions of large bulldozers, improve braking reliability, and extend service life.

[0035] In this embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, there are two cooling oil inlets 522 and two cooling oil outlets 523, which are symmetrically distributed on the second housing 5-2 so as to be common to both sides of the final drive.

[0036] In this embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, there are two pressure oil ports 521, which are symmetrically arranged on the second housing 5-2 so as to be commonly used on both sides of the final drive.

[0037] The transmission route of the drive axle of the present application is: parking brake + drive motor input → primary planetary gear 2 → transmission shaft 2-6 → secondary planetary gear 3 → tertiary planetary gear 4 → service brake 5 + sprocket 4-5 output. The drive motor integrates the caliper disc parking brake and motor dynamic braking functions. The primary, secondary and tertiary planetary gears in the final drive are all sun gear input, ring gear fixed, planet carrier output, and the service brake is integrated at the output end.
