Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of aero-engine, and particularly relates to a bidirectional power transmission mechanism of an aero-engine. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the power transmission mechanism of an aero-engine, due to the changeable operation state of the aero-engine, the transmission mechanism needs to frequently change the power transmission path. For example, the patent document with the authorization announcement number: CN101463534B discloses a bidirectional transmission mechanism of a computer embroidery machine, which is characterized in that it comprises a mounting seat fixedly arranged on a rack, a rotatable transmission shaft arranged on the mounting seat, a belt pulley fixedly arranged at the end of the transmission shaft and connected with a X-direction motor belt, a transmission wheel slidably sleeved on the transmission shaft and connected with a X-direction driving slide block pair, first bearings fixedly arranged at the two ends of the transmission wheel, a transmission seat fixedly arranged on a driving guide rail and sleeved on the transmission shaft, the first bearings fixedly arranged on the transmission seat, and a rotary connection device arranged between the transmission shaft and the transmission wheel and used for driving the transmission wheel to rotate. The patent technical solution makes the X-direction motor fixed on the rack, reduces the no-load of the driving guide rail pair, and improves the transmission efficiency.

[0003] However, the existing bidirectional power transmission mechanism generally uses a spline pair to mesh and connect the input shaft and the output shaft together. However, this connection mode still has the risk of axial movement of the input shaft and the output shaft along the length direction of the spline, especially when the torque is large. If the input shaft and the output shaft move axially, the internal structure of the transmission mechanism will be loose, which affects the operation stability of the transmission mechanism. SUMMARY
