Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of planetary carriers, and in particular to a high-efficiency, energy-grade, two-stage planetary carrier structure. Background Art
[0002] The secondary planetary carrier supports and secures the planetary gears in a planetary reducer. The planetary gears are key components of a planetary reducer. They rotate within the carrier, meshing with the sun gear and internal gear ring to transmit power. As one of the reducer's primary structural components, the carrier is responsible for transferring torque from the input shaft to the output shaft. It bears the load transmitted by the gears and transmits all power to the output shaft. A well-designed carrier structure helps optimize load distribution between the planetary gears, reducing the load on individual planetary gears and improving the load-bearing capacity and lifespan of the entire transmission system. In a traditional single-layer planetary carrier, when the input shaft (sun gear) rotates, it transmits power through the planetary gears. While the planetary gears rotate, they also revolve around the sun gear with the planetary carrier. The planetary gears mesh with the internal teeth of the ring gear. The revolution of the planetary gears causes the ring gear to rotate accordingly. The rotation of the ring gear is transmitted through the output shaft (usually fixed to the ring gear) to achieve power output. The speed ratio is changed by changing the relative positions of the planetary gears, sun gear, and ring gear. The shortcomings of the above solution are: it is easy to deform when subjected to large torque, resulting in uneven load on the planetary gear, affecting the transmission accuracy and life. Improving the load-bearing capacity usually requires increasing the amount of material, but this will reduce the power density. The existing structure is difficult to meet the requirements of high stiffness and good vibration damping performance at the same time. Planetary gear replacement and lubrication maintenance require disassembly of the entire planetary carrier. Summary of the Invention

Improving the load-bearing capacity usually requires increasing the amount of material, but this will reduce the power density. The existing structure is difficult to simultaneously meet the requirements of high stiffness and good vibration damping performance, and the replacement and lubrication maintenance of the planetary gears require disassembly of the entire planetary carrier.

[0022] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: the planetary gear (not shown) is installed in the mounting hole 2 through a bearing, and its gear teeth are meshed with the sun gear and the ring gear. The tooth groove of the mounting hole 2 cooperates with the tooth shape of the planetary gear shaft end, and the tooth groove of the mounting hole 2 cooperates with the tooth shape of the planetary gear shaft end to achieve circumferential positioning, avoid relative sliding, and ensure efficient torque transmission. The planetary gear shaft is inserted into the slide groove 21 and cooperates with the slider of the slide rod 22 through the T-slot to achieve axial sliding guidance, thereby improving the accuracy and flexibility of positioning, achieving circumferential positioning, avoiding relative sliding, and ensuring efficient torque transmission. The limiting teeth 4 of the plug-in ring 3 are meshed with the tooth groove of the mounting hole 2 to form axial and circumferential double locking. The tooth groove meshing structure improves the transmission efficiency and prevents the planetary gear assembly from displacement or vibration during high-speed operation. The upper load is evenly transmitted to the planetary carrier body 1 through the connecting frame 5 and the top plate 6. The upper load is evenly transmitted to the planetary carrier body 1 through the connecting frame 5 and the top plate 6, which reduces local stress concentration and prolongs the service life of the components.

The fine thread 9 of the fixing rod 8 is connected to the external component (such as the reduction gearbox housing). The fine thread 9 of the fixing rod 8 is connected to the external component. The axial pre-tightening of the planetary carrier is achieved by fine adjustment of the thread, eliminating the assembly gap, and improving the tightness and reliability of the connection. The rotating handle 14 drives the screw 13 to move forward and backward in the threaded socket of the support plate 15. The design of the rotating handle 14 and the rotating handle 2 19 makes the fixing and disassembly of the external transmission shaft or coupling fast and convenient, pushing the U-shaped locking frame 11 to retract inward. The anti-slip grooves on the inner side of the locking frame 11 increase friction, clamping the external transmission shaft or coupling, and achieving rapid fixation; The planetary gear shaft is inserted into the slide groove 21, and the slider of the slide rod 22 is matched through the T-shaped groove to realize axial sliding guidance. The rotating handle 21 drives the screw 21 to push the push plate 28, and after the spring buffer, the sliding plate 25 is driven to move along the arc guide groove, so that the rotating rod 26 is deflected. The meshing position of the planetary gear can be accurately adjusted by fine-tuning the sliding plate 25 and the rotating rod 26.
