Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a kind of full roller bearing star wheel lubricating device and its method, belong to coal mining machinery technical field. BACKGROUND
[0002] In certain coal machine low-speed heavy-load multi-planetary gear transmission star wheel mechanism, the radial dimension is very compact, sometimes often adopt double-row full roller bearing without outer (or without inner) ring, the lubricating device design of this type of bearing is basically conventional design, and other types of bearing lubricating mechanism is similar, no particularity (see appendix Figure 1 , appendix Figure 2 ).
[0003] In the planetary gear transmission system, the inner ring 10 is barrel-shaped annular structure, which is precisely fitted and fixed on the box by itself and the box, and the structure forms a large oil pool, which can basically ensure that the oil level of lubricating oil 13 is not less than 1 / 3 of the diameter of the inner ring tooth root circle during normal operation. The power of the transmission system comes from the upper transmission, which transmits power to the sun gear 12. The sun gear and the 3 (or 4, or 5) planetary gears 1 mesh. Assuming that the sun gear rotates clockwise, the planetary gears are fixed on the planetary gear carrier 6, and the planetary gears mesh with the stationary inner ring, which causes the planetary gears to not only rotate counterclockwise around the axial center line of the planetary gear shaft 4, but also rotate clockwise around the common axial center line of the sun gear and the inner ring, and the planetary gears also revolve. The lubrication of the double-row full roller bearing 2 star wheel device without outer (or inner) ring forms an open 3 (or 4, or 5) local small cavity of the star wheel, which is a small oil tank. When each star wheel small oil tank rotates to the bottom of the large oil pool, the lubricating oil enters the internal cavity of the bearing through the longitudinal through oil passage of the planetary gear shaft, the transverse oil hole, the annular oil groove of the planetary gear shaft neck, and the oil hole of the full bearing inner ring (the outer ring of the double-row full roller bearing star wheel device without inner ring does not need oil hole to enter directly). Or the lubricating oil can also enter the internal cavity of the bearing through the gap (δ1-1, δ1-2, δ2-1, δ2-2) between the two ends of the planetary gear and the planetary gear carrier, the gap between the retainer 3, the roller retainer 3-1 and the inner ring of the bearing, and the gap between the rollers of the bearing. The two oil inlet directions coexist. The gear oil quickly fills the star wheel small oil tank, and when the star wheel small oil tank rotates away from the liquid surface of the large oil pool, the lubricating oil filled in the gaps of the star wheel small oil tank with relative motion releases quickly along the oil passage. In the figure, only one of the circumferentially distributed star wheel devices is shown to simplify the expression. Double-headed arrows represent the clockwise rotation of the sun gear, and single-headed arrows represent the general direction of the lubricating oil flow (it may also be in the opposite direction or other combinations of complex directions).
[0004] The power of the lubricating device comes from the torque transmitted by the motor; the liquid lubricating oil has almost no power, but the torque transmitted by the motor drives the open star wheel device (referring to the relatively smooth oil passage gap and space inside the star wheel device) to rotate to the bottom of the gear ring of the large oil tank to quickly fill the oil when the lubricating oil surface, and when the rotation is away from the lubricating oil surface, the lubricating oil in the open star wheel device quickly leaks under the action of gravity and centrifugal force.
[0005] The lubricating device of the double-row full complement roller bearing without outer (or inner) ring has obvious disadvantages, which is very unfavorable when the oil level in the oil tank is low and the oil quantity is small (sometimes the large oil pool of the star wheel transmission mechanism leaks), and it is difficult to work normally for a long time under the harsh working condition of the oil tank with little oil, and such working condition may exist for a long time. The bearing in the lubricating device is a standard part, generally with three oil holes with a diameter of 3-5 mm (for coal machine equipment) uniformly distributed, which belongs to standardized design and has relatively large oil passage gap; at the same time, the gap between the two ends of the planetary gear and the planetary gear carrier, the gap between the retainer, the roller retainer and the bearing inner ring, and the oil passage gap between the rollers of the bearing are large (2.5-10 mm), which leads to small oil inlet and oil leakage resistance and short lubricating oil storage time in the gaps.
[0006] Summary: The above-mentioned star wheel lubricating device of the double-row full complement roller bearing without outer (or inner) ring belongs to conventional design, the small oil tank of the star wheel is an open small cavity, the lubricating passage has relatively large oil passage gap, and the lubricating feature is open, fast-in and fast-out type urgent lubrication with wide area and fast oil inlet and multi-point fast oil leakage; the lubricating effect is obviously not as good as that of the star wheel device lubricated by the pure roller type full complement roller bearing when the oil quantity in the oil tank is not sufficient.

[0057] The full complement roller bearing star wheel lubrication device of the present invention is different from the existing double row full complement roller bearing star wheel device without outer (or inner) ring (see attached Figure 1 , Attachment Figure 2 ), the difference is that it provides an extreme full complement roller bearing 2, which is composed only of rollers and does not have the bearing inner ring, outer ring and cage equipped with conventional bearings. To this end, the present invention specifically designs its related accessories.
[0058] Specifically, if Figure 3 As shown, the full complement roller bearing planetary gear lubrication device of the present invention includes a planetary gear shaft 4 and a planetary gear 1 assembled on the periphery of the planetary gear shaft 4 through a bearing. The bearing is an extreme full complement roller bearing 2, including two end baffles 3 and a roller arranged between the two end baffles 3;
[0059] The end baffle 3 is provided with an end plate inner hole along the central axis, and an end plate stop is provided at one end of the end baffle 3; the end plate stop is tightly matched with the inner hole of the planetary gear 1, and the stop end surface of the end plate stop is evenly provided with a plurality of end plate oil grooves; the end baffle 3 is sleeved on the periphery of the planetary gear shaft 4 through the end plate inner hole, and the inner wall of the end plate inner hole is provided with an inner hole resistance increasing groove that passes through the two end surfaces of the end baffle 3. In the accompanying drawings, one end of the inner hole resistance increasing groove of the present invention passes through one of the end surfaces of the end baffle 3 [for example Figure 7 The left end face of (b)], the other end of the inner hole resistance increasing groove passes through the other end face of the end baffle 3 [for example Figure 7 The inner hole resistance increasing groove is arranged as a whole in a threaded shape (in the present invention, it is arranged as a fine pitch thread), and the depth of the inner hole resistance increasing groove δ 7-1 Satisfaction: δ 7-1 ≤δ 3-2 Where: δ 3-2 Represents the average gap between the inner hole of the end plate and the outer diameter of the planetary shaft 4.
[0060] Each roller is arranged in several rows along the axial direction of the planetary wheel shaft 4; each row of rollers comprises several rollers uniformly distributed along the circumferential direction of the planetary wheel shaft 4; two adjacent rows of rollers are arranged one by one in a corresponding position, and the axes of the two rollers in the corresponding position are collinear;
[0061] Each of two adjacent rows of rollers is respectively provided with an oil bath partition plate 5; the oil bath partition plate 5 comprises a partition plate body; the two plate surfaces of the partition plate body are respectively provided with a plurality of partition plate oil channels, and the partition plate oil channels on the two plate surfaces are arranged alternately. The width t of the partition plate oil channel is approximately equal to 2h, and the thickness δ8 is approximately equal to h / 5; h represents the thickness of the oil bath partition plate 5.
[0062] The planetary wheel shaft 4 is provided with a longitudinal through oil channel and a plurality of rows of transverse oil holes respectively communicating with the longitudinal through oil channel;
[0063] In each row of transverse oil holes, the two rows of transverse oil holes on the outer side are respectively arranged in positions corresponding to the two end baffle plates 3, and the remaining rows of transverse oil holes are respectively arranged in positions corresponding to the oil bath partition plates 5 one by one; the axes of the transverse oil holes included in each row of transverse oil holes are arranged one by one in positions corresponding to the tangent lines between the two adjacent rollers in each row of rollers, and the axes of the transverse oil holes in the corresponding positions and the tangent lines between the two adjacent rollers are longitudinally projected to coincide.
[0064] The diameter d of the longitudinal through oil channel 6-1 The diameter d of the transverse oil hole 6-2 The average gap δ between the depth t6 of the journal annular oil groove, the outer circle of the oil bath partition plate 5 and the inner hole of the planetary wheel 3-4 Satisfies: d 6-1 > d 6-2 t6 > δ 3-4 The average gap δ between the end face of the end plate stopper and the outer end face of the outermost row of rollers 3-3 The average gap δ between the inner hole of the end baffle plate 3 and the outer diameter of the planetary wheel shaft 4 3-2 The average gap δ between the large end face of the end baffle plate 3 and the inner plane convex platform on the same side of the wheel carrier 3-1 Satisfies: δ 3-3 > δ 3-2 > δ 3-1 .
[0065] Therefore, the present application utilizes the multi-row arrangement effect of the full roller bearing to more easily design a plurality of lubricating grooves on the oil bath partition plate 5.
[0066] The end plate stop and the inner bore of the planetary gear 1 fit tightly together, forming a quasi-sealed, localized, small sealed cavity (or small oil tank) within the inner bore of the planetary gear. Resistance-enhancing grooves are designed within the inner bores of the end baffles 3 at both ends of the planetary gears. When each planetary gear small oil tank rotates to the bottom of the large oil pool, lubricating oil slowly enters the internal cavity of the fully loaded roller bearing through the longitudinal oil passages of the planetary gear shaft 4, the transverse oil holes, the annular oil grooves on the planetary gear shaft journal, the oil grooves on the front and back sides of the oil bath baffles, and the oil passage grooves on the small ends of the end baffles. When the planetary gear small oil tank rotates away from the liquid surface of the large oil pool, the lubricating oil that has filled the relative motion lubrication points in the various gaps of the planetary gear small oil tank is slowly released along the oil passage gaps in the resistance-enhancing grooves within the inner bores of the end baffles, achieving slow-in, slow-out, and long-lasting lubrication. The double-line arrow in the figure indicates clockwise rotation of the sun gear, and the single-line arrow indicates the general direction of the lubricating oil flow, which tends to be unidirectional.
[0067] Since the transmission system of the planetary gear mechanism here has a low speed, it is feasible to adopt a slow-feed oil lubrication structure with targeted optimization design; the development and application of multiple coal-forming machine equipment have proved that the slow-feed oil lubrication structure of the new full-component roller bearing planetary gear device can fully meet the minimum lubrication requirements in harsh working conditions with low oil content.
[0068] In this invention, through research and analysis, a full complement roller bearing star wheel lubrication device is summarized, and the optimization method or preferred parameters of the lubrication structural elements of each component are described below:
[0069] (1) Extreme full complement roller bearings
[0070] Attachment Figure 3 In the figure, the rollers included in the extreme full complement roller bearing 2 are arranged in a total of 4 rows. Therefore, by utilizing the multi-row arrangement effect of the extreme full complement roller bearing 2, it is easier to design multiple rows of lubrication grooves (for example, in the figure, the planetary shaft 4 is arranged with 5 rows of transverse oil holes 4-3, so that the lubricating oil introduced from the bottom of the large oil pool through the longitudinal through oil channel 4-2 can enter the internal cavity of the extreme full complement roller bearing through each transverse oil hole 4-3). The lubrication channels are connected in all directions, and the lubricating oil penetrates all holes and fully penetrates; the roller gap δ on the center line of adjacent rollers 4-1 , the clearance δ between the roller and the inner hole of the planetary gear on the extension line of the connecting line between the roller and the planetary gear shaft center 4-2 The existence of is extremely important. One of its functions is to easily form a lubricating oil film to ensure the long-term reliable and normal operation of the bearing (see the attached Figure 4 ).
[0071] (2) Planetary gear
[0072] Each set of star wheel device contains a planetary gear 1, generally 3 (or 4, 5) groups, is the main part of the quasi-sealed small sealing cavity; the inner hole of the planetary gear is formed by precision honing, and the honing lines are easy to attach oil film, and the honing line depth is generally ≤0.4 microns (basically equivalent to the machining roughness of the inner hole surface of the planetary gear); the end plate stopper is tightly matched with the inner hole of the planetary gear, preventing the lubricating oil entering the planetary gear from flowing out along the matching surface, forming a quasi-sealed local small sealing cavity (i.e. small oil tank) (see attached Figure 5 ) for details.
[0073] (3) Planetary gear shaft
[0074] Each set of star wheel device contains a planetary gear shaft 1, generally 3 (or 4, 5) groups; the longitudinal through oil channel (1) of the planetary gear shaft, the transverse oil hole (the number of transverse oil holes is one more than the number of roller rows) and the journal annular oil groove are the main oil inlet channels for lubricating the full-roller bearing star wheel device; generally, the longitudinal through oil channel diameter d 6-1 , the transverse oil hole diameter d 6-2 satisfy: d 6-1 ≈2×d 6-2 , the journal annular oil groove depth t6≈0.5-1mm (see attached Figure 6 ) for details.
[0075] (4) End baffle
[0076] Each set of star wheel device contains an end baffle 2, generally 3 (or 4, 5) groups; the end baffle has a small end at one end and is provided with an end plate stopper, and has a large end at the other end; the end plate stopper and the inner hole of the planetary gear are tightly matched, the end plate stopper is fixed in the inner hole at both ends of the planetary gear, which is a key part of forming a quasi-closed small oil tank for the planetary gear, and is one of the most core parts of the technical invention (see attached Figure 7 ) for details.
[0077] The end plate stopper end face is uniformly provided with a plurality of end plate oil passage grooves, in the present invention, the number of end plate oil passage grooves is 3 or 4, which are evenly distributed along the radial direction, the width t and the depth δ 7-2 of the end plate oil passage groove can be selected according to the width and depth of the oil bath partition plate oil passage groove.
[0078] (5) Oil bath partition plate
[0079] The number of oil bath partitions required is determined by the number of star wheel device groups and the number of full complement roller bearing arrangement rows; generally, a star wheel device has 3 groups or 4 groups or 5 groups, and the limit full complement roller bearing arrangement row number is generally 4 rows or 5 rows or 6 rows; the number of oil bath partitions in each group of star wheel devices is equal to the number of roller rows minus 1 (for example, in the drawings, the number of roller rows is 4, so the number of oil bath partitions is 3); the width t of the oil passage groove of the oil bath partition is generally about 2 times the thickness of the oil bath partition (t≈2h), and is uniformly distributed in 3 or 4 radial directions on the front and back surfaces; the depth δ8 of the oil passage groove of the oil bath partition is generally equal to 1 / 5 of the thickness (δ8≈h / 5) (see the drawings in detail Figure 8 ).
[0080] The oil bath partition separates the adjacent two rows of rollers to avoid hard contact friction and extrusion of the roller end face; at the same time, the relatively large internal space between the rollers of the limit full complement roller bearing is separated along the rows, and only a small gap is used for communication to slow down the oil inflow and discharge flow rate; generally, there is no obvious relative movement between the rollers in each row and between the rollers; however, there is relative movement between the adjacent rollers in each row; there may be relative movement between the roller end faces and the oil bath partition side surfaces in each row of rollers; where there is contact relative movement, there will be friction, and all of them need to be lubricated; the places that need to be lubricated must have oil storage space or oil passage gap.
[0081] After installation, the optimized design and best matching gap value must be retained (see the drawings in detail Figure 3 、 4 , 7) :

[0083] Once contact occurs, it acts as a protective pad for hard surface dry grinding between the planetary gear and the planetary gear carrier 6, so the average gap δ 3-1 between the large end face of the end plate and the inner plane convex platform on the same side of the carrier must meet the requirements.
[0084] 2) δ 3-2 …The average gap (range value) between the inner hole of the end plate and the outer diameter of the planetary gear shaft
[0085] The end plate stopper and the planetary gear inner hole are tightly matched to form a quasi-sealed local small sealed cavity; the inner hole of the end plate at both ends of the planetary gear is designed with an inner hole resistance groove, which is designed in a threaded shape to achieve resistance; so that the present application only has a small gap between the end plate inner hole and the planetary gear shaft outer diameter, which has the possibility of oil discharge; due to the inner hole resistance groove designed at this position, the resistance of the micro gap exists, which slows down the backflow speed of the lubricating oil leaving the micro gap, increases the storage residence time of the lubricating oil in each micro gap in the small oil tank, and thus can effectively ensure the good lubrication of the new full complement roller bearing star wheel device.
[0086] 3)δ 3-3 …average gap between end plate stop end face and outer end face of outermost row of rollers (range value)
[0087] average gap δ 3-3 …to reduce the friction between the end plate stop end face and the outer end face of the outermost row of rollers, and to slow down the lubrication pressure; at the same time, to form an oil lubrication space.
[0088] 4)δ 3-4 …average gap between oil bath baffle inner hole and planetary wheel shaft journal or between oil bath baffle outer circle and planetary wheel inner hole (range value)
[0089] average gap δ 3-4 …is a specially designed internal lubrication oil passage micro gap, which functions to communicate the lubrication space and oil passage gap between each adjacent row of rollers along the axial direction of the planetary wheel shaft and the radial direction of the two end faces of the oil bath baffle, and is an important lubrication oil passage micro gap for slow oil entry and slow oil exit of the internal lubrication structure of the full roller bearing planetary gear device.
[0090] 5)δ 4-1 …gap between rollers on the center line of adjacent rollers (range value), δ 4-2 …gap between rollers and planetary wheel inner hole on the extension line of the center line connecting the rollers and the planetary wheel shaft (range value)
[0091] gap between rollers on the center line of adjacent rollers δ 4-1 , gap between rollers and planetary wheel inner hole on the extension line of the center line connecting the rollers and the planetary wheel shaft δ 4-2 The existence of the gap δ is extremely important, one of its functions is to easily form a lubricating oil film on the inner raceway (planetary wheel shaft journal) and outer raceway (planetary wheel inner hole) of the roller bearing, ensuring long-term reliable and normal operation of the bearing.
[0092] 6)δ 7-1 …depth of inner hole resistance groove
[0093] The shape of the inner hole resistance groove of the end baffle is an open type fine thread with very small pitch and very long thread, and the depth of the inner hole resistance groove δ 7-1 ≤ δ 3-2 (the average gap between the inner hole of the end baffle and the outer diameter of the planetary wheel shaft); its function is that when the small oil tank of the planetary gear rotates away from the liquid surface of the large oil pool, the lubricating oil filled and soaked in the lubricating points with relative motion in the gaps of the small oil tank of the planetary gear is slowly released along the oil passage gap and resistance thread line of the inner hole resistance groove of the end baffle. Due to the resistance and slowing down effect of the micro gap and resistance thread at this position, the backflow speed of the lubricating oil leaving the micro gap is slowed down, and the storage and residence time of the lubricating oil in each micro gap inside the small oil tank is increased, thus effectively ensuring the slow and long-term lubrication of the full roller bearing planetary gear device.
[0094] Summary: "A kind of full roller bearing star wheel lubricating device" belongs to the design of pertinence, the small oil tank of star wheel is quasi-sealed small sealing cavity, lubricating channel, oil gap order level design, oil inlet and outlet channel gap size value from big to small, shape from wide to narrow gradually changes, lubricating oil route unidirectionality is very clear;For example, the size value d 6-1 (Planet wheel shaft longitudinal through oil channel diameter)>d 6-2 (Planet wheel shaft transverse oil hole diameter)>t6(Planet wheel shaft journal ring oil groove depth)>delta 3-4 (The average gap between the oil bath partition hole and the planet wheel shaft journal or the average gap between the oil bath partition outer circle and the planet wheel inner hole), delta 3-3 (The average gap between the end plate stop end face and the outer end face of the outermost row of rollers)>delta 3-2 (The average gap between the end baffle inner hole and the planet wheel shaft outer diameter)>delta 3-1 (The average gap between the end baffle large end face and the inner plane convex platform plane of the same side of the wheel carrier).
[0095] In the star wheel device, the oil diffusion area becomes larger and larger, which makes it easier to continuously and durably lubricate the bulk characteristics of the full roller bearing; In addition, important lubricating oil micro-gaps are specially designed for slow oil inlet and slow oil outlet, and the oil outlet is designed to be contracted and increased in resistance, increasing the oil discharge resistance. The lubrication feature is a quasi-closed, slow-in and slow-out type of durable lubrication with slow oil inlet and increased resistance hole gap slow oil discharge. When the oil tank oil volume is not sufficient, the lubrication effect of the pure roller type full roller bearing star wheel device is much better than that of the above-mentioned double-row full roller bearing lubricating device without outer (or inner) ring.
[0096] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
