AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, the traditional reverse threading method requires the use of reverse threading drill rods, resulting in low utilization rate and high resource costs of forward threading drill rods. Furthermore, the torque output of traditional multi-stage planetary gear transmissions is not adaptive, which can easily lead to deformation and failure of the output shaft.
A reversing mechanism is used to connect the forward-engaged drill rod to the reverse-engaged device, combined with a triangular gear mechanism to achieve adaptive torque variation, and a high-strength aerospace material output shaft is used. A three-stage planetary gear set is designed to reduce speed and increase torque.
It improves the utilization rate of forward-threaded drill pipe, increases the safety and reliability of reverse-threaded operations, reduces resource costs, and improves the success rate and efficiency of operations.
