TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of worm gear boxes, and particularly relates to a worm gear box. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the continuous progress of valve technology, as the core transmission component of valve driving devices, worm gear boxes internally integrate worm gears and worm mechanisms, and bear the key role of transmitting torque, achieving deceleration and increasing output force. In view of the working characteristics of low valve opening and closing frequency and sudden load increase at the moment of closing, modern worm gear box design gradually adopts worm gear materials with high tooth root strength and more optimized worm types (such as toroidal worm), and cooperates with compact support structures to shorten the span, improve rigidity and transmission efficiency.
[0003] A self-adaptive lubrication worm gear box is disclosed in Chinese Patent No. CN202411623889.9, which belongs to the technical field of worm gear boxes. The self-adaptive lubrication worm gear box comprises a cover shell and a bottom shell, and further comprises: an oil inlet arranged at the top of the cover shell; an oil outlet arranged at the bottom of the bottom shell; a worm gear box composed of the cover shell and the bottom shell is internally provided with a worm gear and a worm, and the worm gear and the worm are connected in meshing; a first gear rotates synchronously with the worm, the first gear is arranged in the bottom shell, and a plurality of second gears are connected in meshing on the first gear; a standpipe is arranged in the bottom shell, a top end of the standpipe is communicated with a taper pipe, an impeller is arranged in the taper pipe, the impeller is fixedly connected with the second gear, and a nozzle is communicated with the taper pipe. The invention can release the stress accumulated at both ends of the worm, reduce the accumulation of internal stress, avoid fatigue fracture of the worm, and prolong the service life of the worm gear box.
[0004] However, in actual use, if the valve is closed too quickly, a strong water hammer pressure wave, i.e. water hammer effect, will be excited in the pipeline. The pressure wave reversely impacts the valve disc, trying to forcibly push the valve open, thereby posing an extreme test to the self-locking performance of the worm gear box. The huge impact force can damage the self-locking structure, causing the valve disc to slightly open or the transmission components to be severely damaged. In addition, in a system for conveying water to high terrain, if water supply is suddenly cut off, the reverse impact of backflow will also bring severe reverse load to the worm gear transmission, further increasing the risk of damage to the worm gear and the worm.
[0005] On the other hand, in actual operation, the valve is not always opened and closed, but is usually at an intermediate opening degree (such as 30% or 50%) for flow regulation. This working condition causes the meshing area of the worm gear and the worm to always concentrate in a limited section. At the same time, the force of the water flow passing through the valve acting on the valve disc is transmitted to the transmission system, so that the meshing area continuously bears high stress, thereby causing serious wear of the local tooth surface and thread groove. In contrast, the other sections have less meshing opportunity and almost no wear. This stress concentration phenomenon causes extremely uneven wear distribution, significantly shortening the service life of the worm gear and worm transmission components.
[0006] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, it is necessary to provide a worm gear box. SUMMARY

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0023] Embodiment one In actual use, if the valve is closed too quickly, a strong water hammer pressure wave will be excited in the pipeline, i.e. water hammer effect. The pressure wave reversely impacts the valve disc, trying to push the valve open forcibly, thereby posing an extreme challenge to the self-locking performance of the worm gear box. The huge impact force can damage the self-locking structure, causing the valve disc to be slightly open or the transmission components to be severely damaged. In addition, in a system for conveying water to high terrain, if water supply is suddenly cut off, the reverse impact of backflow can also bring severe reverse load to the worm gear transmission, further increasing the risk of damage to the worm gear and the worm.
[0024] On the other hand, in actual operation, the valve is usually not fully opened and closed, but is kept at an intermediate opening (e.g. 30%, 50%) for a long time to regulate the flow. This working condition causes the meshing area of the worm gear and the worm to always concentrate in a limited section. At the same time, the force of the water flowing through the valve acting on the valve disc is transmitted to the transmission system, causing the meshing area to continuously bear high stress, thereby causing severe wear of the local tooth surface and thread groove. In contrast, the other sections have less meshing opportunity and almost no wear. This stress concentration phenomenon causes the wear distribution to be extremely uneven, significantly shortening the service life of the worm gear and worm transmission components.
[0025] The above-mentioned states are mainly due to the hard contact between the worm gear and the worm, causing the tooth surface of the worm gear to be excessively extruded against the inner wall of the helical groove of the worm when the water flows through or is impacted by the water flow, resulting in wear or damage.
[0026] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 The present application provides the following technical solutions: a worm gear box, comprising a mounting shell 1, a mounting cover 2, and a worm assembly 3, a worm gear 4, and a driving wheel 5 arranged inside the mounting shell 1: The worm assembly 3 comprises a driving rod 31 and a threaded sleeve 32 movably connected to the outer wall of the driving rod 31, both ends of the threaded sleeve 32 are provided with adapter pieces 33 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the driving rod 31, each adapter piece 33 is fixedly connected to a plurality of uniformly distributed limiting pieces 34 on the side close to the threaded sleeve 32, both ends of the threaded sleeve 32 are provided with limiting grooves 35 corresponding in number and position to the limiting pieces 34, and each limiting groove 35 is provided with an adjusting groove 36 at the inner center thereof, each limiting piece 34 can move inside the corresponding limiting groove 35, and rotating the driving rod 31 can adjust the position of the limiting piece 34 inside the corresponding limiting groove 35 and adjust the limiting state of the threaded sleeve 32.
[0027] Each limiting piece 34 is provided with an installation groove 37 inside, each installation groove 37 is slidably connected to an extrusion piece 38, and each extrusion piece 38 is connected to the corresponding installation groove 37 through a first elastic piece 39, and rotating the driving rod 31 can make the extrusion piece 38 located inside the adjusting groove 36.
[0028] Threaded sleeve 32 is provided with a threaded groove matched with worm gear 4, drive rod 31 is rotatably connected with mounting shell 1 through adapter 33, which is known in the art and will not be described here.
[0029] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the connection between adjusting groove 36 and limiting groove 35 is arc-shaped, and the side of extrusion piece 38 and limiting piece 34 close to limiting groove 35 is also arc-shaped, which is to facilitate the movement of extrusion piece 38 and limiting piece 34 from adjusting groove 36 into the inside of limiting groove 35 when limiting piece 34 moves from the inside of limiting groove 35.
[0030] During the rotation of drive rod 31, first elastic piece 39 is always in a compressed state. When extrusion piece 38 is located inside limiting groove 35, first elastic piece 39 is in a first compressed state, at this time extrusion piece 38 completely enters the inside of mounting groove 37, limiting piece 34 can contact with the inner wall of limiting groove 35, and can limit and fix threaded sleeve 32. When extrusion piece 38 is located inside adjusting groove 36, first elastic piece 39 rebounds to a certain extent and is in a second compressed state, at this time part of extrusion piece 38 enters the inside of adjusting groove 36, at this time limiting piece 34 can move in the inner wall of adjusting groove 36 and no longer limits and fixes threaded sleeve 32. There is a certain gap between the existing threaded groove and the teeth for filling lubricating oil. If the teeth of worm gear 4 excessively extrude the inner wall of the spiral groove of threaded sleeve 32 at this time, threaded sleeve 32 will move to a certain extent on drive rod 31 to the left or to the right according to the direction of force, avoiding the excessive extrusion of the teeth on one side of the inner wall of the threaded groove and avoiding hard contact. When threaded sleeve 32 moves to the left on drive rod 31, the left limiting piece 34 can be inserted into the corresponding adjusting groove 36, which can compress the corresponding first elastic piece 39, and the right first elastic piece 39 can further rebound, which can keep the corresponding extrusion piece 38 in adjusting groove 36, and vice versa. When threaded sleeve 32 moves to the right on drive rod 31, the right limiting piece 34 can be inserted into the corresponding adjusting groove 36, which can compress the corresponding first elastic piece 39, and the left first elastic piece 39 can further rebound, which can keep the corresponding extrusion piece 38 in adjusting groove 36.
[0031] It needs to be explained that, because of the resistance between the worm wheel 4 and the threaded sleeve 32, each time the driving rod 31 is rotated, the limiting piece 34 will be moved inside the limiting groove 35 first until the side of the limiting piece 34 contacts the inner wall of one side of the limiting groove 35, at which time the rotation of the driving rod 31 can drive the threaded sleeve 32 to rotate synchronously, when the valve reaches the required state, the rotation of the driving rod 31 in this direction is stopped, and the driving rod 31 is rotated in the opposite direction until the extrusion piece 38 enters the adjusting groove 36, at which time the rotation is stopped, if the teeth of the worm wheel 4 excessively extrude the inner wall of the spiral groove of the threaded sleeve 32, the threaded sleeve 32 will move on the driving rod 31 to the left or to the right according to the direction of the force to a certain extent, avoiding hard contact, preventing the tooth surface from being excessively extruded with the inner wall of the spiral groove when the water flows through or is impacted by the water flow, causing wear or damage.
[0032] In actual use, the driving rod 31 is rotated according to the needs, if the driving rod 31 is rotated clockwise, when the valve reaches the required state, the clockwise rotation of the driving rod 31 needs to be stopped, and the driving rod 31 is rotated counterclockwise until the extrusion piece 38 enters the adjusting groove 36 and stops, and vice versa, if the driving rod 31 is rotated counterclockwise, when the valve reaches the required state, the counterclockwise rotation of the driving rod 31 needs to be stopped, and the driving rod 31 is rotated clockwise until the extrusion piece 38 enters the adjusting groove 36 and stops.
[0033] In summary, through the setting of the threaded sleeve 32, when the driving rod 31 is rotated, the limiting piece 34 will be moved inside the limiting groove 35 first until the side of the limiting piece 34 contacts the inner wall of one side of the limiting groove 35, achieving the limiting of the threaded sleeve 32, at which time the rotation of the driving rod 31 can drive the threaded sleeve 32 to rotate synchronously, when the valve reaches the required state, the rotation of the driving rod 31 in this direction is stopped, and the driving rod 31 is rotated in the opposite direction until the extrusion piece 38 enters the adjusting groove 36 and stops, if the teeth of the worm wheel 4 excessively extrude the inner wall of the spiral groove of the threaded sleeve 32, the threaded sleeve 32 will move on the driving rod 31 to a certain extent according to the direction of the force, avoiding hard contact, preventing the tooth surface from being excessively extruded with the inner wall of the spiral groove when the water flows through or is impacted by the water flow, causing wear or damage.
[0034] Example two On the basis of the above embodiment, when the valve adjusts the flow, it is essentially to quickly change the fluid flow rate, and the fluid will impact the valve and the pipeline system due to inertia, resulting in a sharp conversion of kinetic energy and pressure energy, forming a destructive pressure wave oscillation or a violent impact of fluid reverse flow. At this time, if the force is along the rotation direction, it can provide assistance, and if the force is against the rotation direction, it will increase the resistance, resulting in a larger load between the driving wheel and the worm gear, which not only affects the driving of the worm gear box, but also exacerbates the wear between the driving wheel and the worm gear, resulting in a larger gap and affecting the accuracy of the adjustment.
