[0002] With the development of electric vehicles, the demand for motion functions of automotive parts is gradually increasing; the connecting rod mechanism is a relatively common motion transmission mechanism and is used in some automotive parts.

[0003] The traditional planar linkage mechanism only requires one degree of rotational freedom for the transmission connection point, and a simple riveted pin can meet the structural requirements; if it is necessary to transmit torque and motion between multiple planar mechanisms, the original single-plane linkage mechanism will not be applicable.

[0004] Currently, there are some transmission mechanisms that can transmit torque and motion between two planar mechanisms. This type of transmission mechanism has some shortcomings. Either the freedom is too much, resulting in the product being unable to determine the movement, thus affecting the product function; or the freedom is too little, resulting in interference within the mechanism, causing the torque and motion to be unable to be transmitted, posing a hidden danger to the system stability.

[0028] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings to further describe the technical solution of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0029] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a connecting rod transmission mechanism includes: a connecting rod 200, a rotating block 300 and a rotating shaft 400, the rotating block 300 is hinged to the connecting rod 200 through a hinge shaft 310, and the rotating block 300 and the connecting rod 200 form an assembly component 100, the connecting rod 200 has a first degree of freedom of rotation around the hinge shaft 310 relative to the rotating block 300; the rotating block 300 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 400, and the assembly component 100 has a second degree of freedom of rotation around the rotating shaft 400.

[0030] The connecting rod 200 is connected to the two planar mechanisms, that is, the connecting rod 200 is shared by the two planar mechanisms. The connecting rod 200 is used to connect the two planar mechanisms and transmit torque and motion between the two planar mechanisms. The connecting rod 200 and the rotating block 300 constitute an assembly component 100. In the assembly component 100, the connecting rod 200 can rotate around the hinge axis 310 to form a first degree of freedom, and the assembly component 100 as a whole can rotate around the rotating shaft 400 to form a second degree of freedom, so that the connecting rod transmission mechanism has two degrees of freedom; and it should be pointed out that when the assembly component 100 rotates around the rotating shaft 400 as a whole, the connecting rod 200 and the rotating block 300 are constrained together and move together.

[0031] The invention provides a device capable of transmitting torque and motion between two planar mechanisms, thereby achieving the purpose of transmitting torque and motion across planes, and can also avoid non-unique motion caused by excessive freedom of motion and interference force caused by insufficient freedom of motion. The overall structure is reasonable and stable.

[0032] like Figure 1-5As shown, on the basis of the above embodiment, the connecting rod 200 is installed with a cover plate 500, and the connecting rod 200 is connected to the rotating block 300 through the cover plate 500 to form the assembly component 100. The cover plate 500 is a plate body covering the connecting rod 200. The cover plate 500 can constrain the rotating block 300 and the connecting rod 200 together, so that the connecting rod 200 and the rotating block 300 rotate around the rotating shaft 400 as a whole (assembly component 100), and will not hinder the connecting rod 200 from rotating relative to the rotating block 300.

[0033] Preferably, the cover plate 500 covers the connecting rod 200 and is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 200 via screws 520 .

[0034] On the basis of the above embodiment, the number of the hinge shafts 310 is two, the two hinge shafts 310 are coaxially arranged and respectively fixed to the two outer side walls of the rotating block 300, the connecting rod 200 has two opening grooves 210, the two hinge shafts 310 are respectively embedded in the two opening grooves 210, the cover plate 500 presses the two hinge shafts 310 and constrains the two hinge shafts 310 in the two opening grooves 210 respectively so that the connecting rod 200 and the rotating block 300 form the assembly component 100.

[0035] In this embodiment, the two side walls of the rotating block 300 protrude outward to form a hinge shaft 310, and the two hinge shafts 310 are coaxially arranged, and the hinge shaft 310 can be embedded in the open groove 210. The open groove 210 acts as a hinge hole so that the connecting rod 200 can rotate relative to the rotating block 300 through the hinge shaft 310, and the hinge shaft 310 is located in the open groove 210 so that the connecting rod 200 and the rotating block 300 can rotate together around the rotating shaft 400, that is, when the assembly component 100 rotates around the rotating shaft 400, the connecting rod 20 0 is constrained together with the rotating block 300 through the opening groove 210 and the hinge shaft 310; since the opening groove 210 has an opening, the rotating block 300 is directly installed in the installation hole 220 during installation, and the two hinge shafts 310 are embedded in the two opening grooves 210, and then the cover plate 500 is installed. After the cover plate 500 is installed in place, it presses the two hinge shafts 310 and seals the opening of the opening groove 210, so that the rotating block 300 and the connecting rod 200 are assembled together to prevent the hinge shaft 310 from falling out of the opening groove 210.

[0036] On the basis of the above embodiment, the cover plate 500 has two pressing blocks 510, which are respectively embedded in the openings of the two opening grooves 210 and press the hinge shaft 310. The pressing blocks 510 cooperate with the opening grooves 210 to form a hinge hole structure, thereby constraining the hinge shaft 310 in the opening grooves 210 and limiting the radial freedom of the hinge shaft 310.

[0037] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the connecting rod 200 is provided with a mounting hole 220, and the rotating block 300 is installed in the mounting hole 220; a space is reserved between the mounting hole 220 and the rotating block 300 so that the connecting rod 200 is allowed to rotate relative to the rotating block 300.

[0038] like Figure 1-3 As shown, on the basis of the above embodiment, the rotating block 300 is provided with a shaft hole 320 , and the rotating shaft 400 is passed through the shaft hole 320 .

[0039] On the basis of the above embodiment, a bearing sleeve 330 for supporting the rotating block 300 to rotate relative to the rotating shaft 400 is provided between the shaft hole 320 and the rotating shaft 400. The bearing sleeve 330 can make the assembly mechanism rotate more smoothly around the rotating shaft 400.

[0040] The connecting rod transmission mechanism has a simple structure, high reliability, low cost, and can effectively transmit spatial torque and motion to achieve the motion requirements of two spatial degrees of freedom.

[0041] like Figure 1-3 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the axis of the hinge shaft 310 is perpendicular to the axis of the rotating shaft 400. In this embodiment, the connecting rod 200 has a first degree of freedom, and the assembly component 100 formed by the connecting rod 200 and the rotating block 300 has a second degree of freedom. When the connecting rod 200 rotates around the hinge shaft 310, it rotates on one plane, and when the assembly component 100 rotates around the rotating shaft 400, it rotates on another plane.

[0042] It should be noted that all directional indications in the embodiments of the present invention (such as up, down, left, right, front, back...) are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0043] In addition, in the present invention, the descriptions of "first", "second", "one", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of the present invention, the meaning of "plurality" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0044] In the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connection", "fixation", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "fixation" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0045] In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the fact that ordinary technicians in the field can implement it. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
