Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of variable pitch drive structure for aircraft rotor systems, and specifically relates to a space-compact, high-load drive mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] eVTOL is an aircraft that uses electricity as its power source and has vertical takeoff and landing capabilities. It features vertical takeoff and landing, intelligent operation, rapid maneuverability, low cost, low noise, zero emissions, and ease of maintenance, and has broad application prospects in both military and civilian fields. Compared to traditional helicopter rotors, the eVTOL rotor system design eliminates the complex automatic swashplate and hub flapping / arraying hinge structures, allowing for collective pitch control of the blades. This rotor configuration significantly improves structural compactness, reliability, and maintainability, and is widely used in various eVTOL rotor systems.
[0003] Conventional eVTOL rotor systems are typically directly connected to the motor. To meet the rotor blade pitch requirements, a reciprocating servo mechanism is usually mounted at the rear of the motor. While this satisfies functional needs, as eVTOL designs increase in tonnage, higher demands are placed on the integration of the electric propulsion system. This servo-mounted design exposes several problems, such as occupying the axial dimension of the entire electric propulsion system, mutual interference between the servo and motor control space, electromagnetic interference issues with the servo, and incomplete utilization of space within the servo motor and rotor system. Furthermore, the large radial space required makes it difficult to achieve maneuvering within tight radial and axial dimensions, such as in rotor hub-based control scenarios. Summary of the Invention
[0004] Purpose of the invention: To provide a space-compact, high-load drive mechanism that meets the manipulation requirements of narrow radial and axial dimensions.
[0005] Technical solution: A compact, high-load drive mechanism includes: a drive rod assembly 100, an anti-torsion seat assembly 200, a torque motor housing assembly 300, a torque motor 400, and a brake and electronic control mechanism 500.

[0008] Furthermore, the lead screw 120 sequentially includes: a spherical bearing external thread 121, a lead screw thread 122, a support bearing shoulder 123, a polygonal output shaft 124, a locking thread 125, and an internal hexagonal socket 126.

The lead screw 120 is connected to the rotor of the torque motor 400 via the polygonal output shaft 124.
[0009] Furthermore, the anti-torsion seat assembly 200 has an anti-torsion seat flange 203 at one end of the anti-torsion seat 201, and an inner spline 202 on the inner side for engaging with the outer spline 114 of the integrated drive rod 103. The anti-torsion seat assembly 200 is fixed to the torque motor housing assembly 300 by anti-torsion seat fixing screws 204.
[0010] Furthermore, the torque motor housing assembly 300 includes: a motor housing 302, an upper support bearing 303, and a lower support bearing 304. The motor housing 302 is fixed to the torque motor 400 by motor fixing bolts 301. The motor housing 302 has two mounting holes on the upper and lower sides of its inner side for mounting the outer rings of the upper support bearing 303 and the lower support bearing 304. The inner rings of the upper support bearing 303 and the lower support bearing 304 are mounted on the rotor shaft 405 of the torque motor 400.
[0011] Furthermore, the torque motor 400 includes: a torque motor rotor magnet support 401, a torque motor rotor magnet 402, a torque motor stator winding 403, a torque motor stator winding frame 404, a torque motor rotor shaft 405, a stator winding fixing seat 406, and a cable 407. The inner side of the torque motor rotor magnet support 401 is directly connected to the rotor shaft 405, and the torque motor rotor magnet 402 is fixed to the outer side of the torque motor rotor magnet support 401. The stator of the machine consists of a torque motor stator winding 403 and a torque motor stator winding frame 404. The torque motor stator winding 403 is evenly distributed and installed on the inner side of the torque motor stator winding frame 404. The outer side of the torque motor stator winding frame 404 is fixedly connected to the stator winding fixing seat 406.

[0012] Furthermore, the upper support bearing 303 and the lower support bearing 304 are tapered roller bearings.
[0013] Furthermore, a flange is provided on the motor housing 302, which is fixed to the usage position by motor fixing bolts 301.
[0014] Furthermore, the lower end of the lead screw 120 is connected to the rotor shaft 405 of the torque motor via a washer 306 and a locking nut 307.
[0015] Beneficial effects: 1. The drive mechanism adopts a combination of a flat torque motor, an integrated roller screw nut, and a spline anti-torsion cylinder to achieve maximum driving force output within a compact space with high integration. 2. The power source adopts a flat, high-energy-density torque motor structure with fixed stator magnets. When current passes through the rotor windings to generate a changing magnetic field, it can generate a large torque output to drive the rotor, thereby significantly reducing the occupancy of the motor in the height direction of the drive mechanism. 3. The lead screw abuts against the outer ring of the upper support bearing through the shoulder of the support bearing, and the lower end of the lead screw is tightened by the lock nut. In this way, the lead screw can be pressed as a whole to restrict axial movement. The two bearings can respectively bear the tensile and compressive loads generated by the rotation of the lead screw. Torque is transmitted through the keyway or internal hexagonal socket, which is more reliable.
[0016] 4. Regarding the anti-torsion structure, the conventional anti-torsion arm configuration is abandoned, and a spline, guide groove, or rail anti-torsion configuration is adopted. The outer diameter of the nut with internal thread that meshes with the roller assembly is directly made into an external spline configuration. The external spline and the internal spline anti-torsion sleeve are matched in the same direction, thereby playing an anti-torsion role. When the screw rotates, the nut is fixed by the outer spline, which will convert the rotational motion into axial lifting motion. This structure occupies less radial space than the conventional anti-torsion rod system structure and can be made into a limiting structure. 5. The lead screw and nut assembly can be used as a whole. When the bottom nut of the lead screw is loosened, the drive rod assembly can be pulled out as a whole in the spline groove, which facilitates disassembly and maintenance in the future. 6. Through the irregularly shaped fitting structure at the end, brakes, encoders, electronic control boards and other structures can be installed at the end, thereby achieving a compact overall large drive output while meeting the requirements of high-precision braking and servo control.

[0032] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto.
[0033] To meet the operational requirements of confined radial and axial dimensions, such as in rotor hub operation scenarios, the drive mechanism adopts a combination of a flat torque motor, an integrated roller screw nut, and a spline anti-torsion cylinder, achieving maximum drive force output within a compact space with high integration. The power source uses a flat, high-energy-density torque motor with fixed stator magnets. When current passes through the rotor windings, it generates a changing magnetic field, producing a large torque output to drive the rotor, significantly reducing the motor's height occupancy in the drive mechanism. The upper structure of the drive mechanism uses a planetary roller screw configuration, with an axially fixed rotating screw driving multiple mating planetary rollers to rotate, which in turn drives the internally threaded nut to rotate. Compared to conventional ball screws, this configuration offers stronger output and load-bearing capacity, higher precision, and stronger impact resistance. In terms of anti-torsion structure, the conventional anti-torsion arm configuration is abandoned, and a spline, guide groove, or rail anti-torsion configuration is adopted. The outer diameter of the nut with internal thread that meshes with the roller assembly is directly made into an external spline configuration. The external spline and the internal spline anti-torsion sleeve cooperate to play an anti-torsion role. When the lead screw rotates, the nut is fixed by the outer spline, which will convert the rotational motion into axial lifting motion. This structure occupies less radial space than the conventional anti-torsion rod system structure and can be made into a limiting structure. The lead screw and nut assembly can be integrated as a whole. When the bottom nut of the lead screw is loosened, the drive rod assembly can be pulled out as a whole in the spline groove, which is convenient for later disassembly and maintenance. Furthermore, a brake, encoder, electronic control board, and other structures can be installed at the end to achieve a compact overall large drive output while meeting the requirements of high-precision braking and servo control.
[0034] like Figures 1 to 7 A compact, high-load drive mechanism comprises: a drive rod assembly 100, an anti-torsion seat assembly 200, a torque motor housing assembly 300, a torque motor 400, a brake and electronic control mechanism 500, etc. Its working principle is as follows: The torque motor 400 serves as the power source, converting electrical energy into the mechanical energy of the rotor 405's rotation through electromagnetic induction between the stator and rotor. This mechanical energy drives the lead screw 120 of the drive rod assembly 200 to rotate. The rotation of the lead screw 120 drives the planetary rollers 113, which are in threaded contact with it, to rotate. The nut in threaded contact with the planetary rollers 113 is itself part of the integrated drive rod 103. The rotation of the planetary rollers 113 drives the integrated drive rod 103 to rotate. The integrated drive rod 103 has external spline teeth or guide grooves machined on its lower part, which connect to the anti-torsion seat assembly 200 with internal splines or guide grooves. Ultimately, the rotational motion of the integrated drive rod 103 in the drive rod assembly 100 is converted into up-and-down movement, thus achieving reciprocating linear motion, which is finally output through the top spherical bearing or other connecting structure. Installing a brake and electronic control mechanism 500 at the end allows for a compact overall large drive output while meeting the requirements for high-precision braking and servo control. The drive mechanism uses a flat torque motor 400 with a small height and space occupation, which makes it easy to install the drive mechanism in a small space. The torque motor rotor magnet support 401 is directly connected to the rotor shaft 405. The torque motor rotor magnet 402 is fixed on the torque motor rotor magnet support 401. The stator of the torque motor consists of a torque motor stator winding 403 and a torque motor stator winding frame 404. The torque motor stator winding 403 is evenly distributed and installed on the torque motor stator winding frame 404. The torque motor stator winding frame 404 is fixedly connected to the motor casing 302. The rotor shaft 405 has an irregular hole at the center, and the inner hole is a hexagonal socket or other key connection form to transmit power to the lead screw 120 that is connected to it. When power is transmitted to the stator winding 403 of the torque motor through cable 407, the rotor magnet 402 of the torque motor and the coil of the stator winding 403 of the torque motor generate electromagnetic induction, converting electrical energy into mechanical energy for the rotation of the rotor magnet 402 of the torque motor, which in turn drives the rotor shaft 405 to rotate. The rotor shaft 405 drives the lead screw 120 to rotate through the internal hexagonal socket or keyway.
[0035] The torque motor housing assembly 300 connects the anti-torsion seat assembly 200 to the torque motor 400. The torque motor housing assembly 300 fixes the motor casing 302 to the motor housing 302 by motor fixing bolts 301. The motor casing 302 has two mounting holes at the top and bottom for mounting the outer rings of the upper support bearing 303 and the lower support bearing 304 that support the rotor shaft 405. The inner rings of the upper support bearing 303 and the lower support bearing 304 are mounted on the rotor shaft 405 and limited. The outer rings of the two bearings are restricted from axial movement by the anti-torsion seats 201 and the lower end cover of the motor casing, which are in contact with each other. The lead screw 120 abuts against the outer ring of the upper support bearing 303 by the support bearing shoulder 123. The lower end of the lead screw 120 is tightened by the washer 306 and the lock nut 307. In this way, the lead screw 120 can be pressed together by the upper support bearing 303, the lower support bearing 304 and the rotor shaft 405 to restrict axial movement. The two bearings can respectively bear the tensile and compressive loads generated by the rotation of the lead screw 120.
[0036] The drive rod assembly 200 is the main drive output mechanism. The torque motor rotor shaft 405 drives the lead screw 120 to rotate via an internal hexagon or keyway. The axially fixed, rotatable lead screw 120 drives multiple planetary rollers 113 that mesh with it to rotate via the lead screw thread 122, thereby driving the integrated drive rod 103 with an internally threaded nut underneath to rotate. The roller nut assembly is secured to the rollers 113 by an upper retaining ring 111 and a lower retaining ring 115, which fixes them to the upper support plate 112 and the lower support plate 116 respectively, and then they are all mounted in the internal thread area of the integrated drive rod 103.
[0037] In terms of anti-torsion structure, the conventional anti-torsion arm configuration is abandoned. The drive rod assembly 200 engages with the inner spline 202 grooved track of the anti-torsion seat 201 via the outer spline 114 or grooved track below the integrated drive rod 103. The anti-torsion seat 201 fixes the anti-torsion seat flange 203 to the motor housing 302 via anti-torsion seat fixing screws 204, thereby achieving the anti-torsion function. When the lead screw rotates, the nut is used for outer spline fixation, which converts the rotational motion of the integrated drive rod 103 into the axial lifting motion of the integrated drive rod 103. The drive is connected to the external load via the joint bearing shank 102 connected by the top thread and the joint bearing 101. This structure occupies less radial space than the conventional anti-torsion rod system structure and can be made into a limiting structure.
[0038] This structure has the following characteristics: 1. The drive mechanism adopts a combination of a flat torque motor, an integrated roller screw nut, and a spline anti-torsion cylinder to achieve high integration and large driving force output in a compact space; 2. The power source adopts a flat torque motor 400 as the power source. Through electromagnetic induction between the stator and the rotor, electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy for the rotor 405 to rotate, thereby driving the lead screw 120 of the drive rod assembly 200 to rotate. The integrated drive rod 103 has an external spline tooth or guide groove machined below it, which is connected to the anti-torsion seat assembly 200 with an internal spline or guide groove. Ultimately, the rotational motion of the integrated drive rod 103 of the drive rod assembly 100 is converted into up and down movement, thereby realizing reciprocating linear motion. 4) The lead screw 120 abuts against the outer ring of the upper support bearing 303 through the support bearing shoulder 123. The lower end of the lead screw 120 is tightened by the washer 306 and the locking nut 307. In this way, the lead screw 120 can be pressed as a whole to restrict axial movement. The two bearings can respectively bear the tensile and compressive loads generated by the rotation of the lead screw 120.
[0039] 5) The axially fixed, rotatable lead screw 120 drives multiple planetary rollers 113 that are in sync with it to rotate through the lead screw thread 122, which in turn drives the integrated drive rod 103 with an internally threaded nut below to rotate. Using a roller lead screw can enable the drive mechanism to have a greater output capacity.
[0040] 7. Regarding the anti-torsion structure, the conventional anti-torsion arm configuration is abandoned. The drive rod assembly 200 engages with the inner spline 202 grooved track of the anti-torsion seat 201 via the outer spline 114 or grooved track below the integrated drive rod 103. The anti-torsion seat 201 fixes the anti-torsion seat flange 203 to the motor housing 302 via the anti-torsion seat fixing screw 204, thereby achieving the anti-torsion function. When the lead screw rotates, the nut is used for outer spline fixing, which converts the rotational motion of the integrated drive rod 103 into the axial lifting motion of the integrated drive rod 103. The lead screw and nut assembly can be used as a whole. When the bottom nut of the lead screw is loosened, the drive rod assembly can be pulled out as a whole in the spline groove, which is convenient for disassembly and maintenance. Furthermore, a brake, encoder, electronic control board and other structures can be installed at the end to achieve a compact overall large drive output while meeting the requirements of high-precision braking and servo control.

Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
