Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of tripod pins, and in particular to a tripod pin assembly. Background Art

[0002] Since the relative position between the wheels and the gearbox changes frequently, the angle between the power output and input ends changes frequently, so a universal joint is needed to adjust it. This universal joint is what we often call a universal joint or a tripod. It is a component that realizes variable-angle power transmission and is used in positions where the direction of the transmission axis needs to be changed. It is the "joint" component of the universal joint of the automobile drive system.

[0003] After searching, the Chinese patent authorization announcement number CN207364120U discloses a high-torque simple tripod pin assembly, including a tripod frame, a ball ring inner ring, and an outer ball ring. The tripod frame is provided with three pins, each pin is sleeved with a ball ring inner ring, and the ball ring inner ring is sleeved with an outer ball ring. Compared with the existing tripod pin assembly, the utility model eliminates the needle roller and transfers the space of the needle roller to the pin shaft of the tripod frame, thereby increasing the diameter of the pin shaft and the bearing area between the pin shaft and the flower hub, so that the tripod pin assembly can withstand higher torque, and compared with the tripod pin assembly with needle rollers, the needle rollers are prevented from being crushed.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the size of the connecting groove of the pin shaft matches the size of the fixed shell. When the sliding shell has not been inserted, it can be directly inserted into the connecting groove for quick installation.

[0012] Optionally, the sliding shell forms an elastic structure with the fixed shell through the first damping spring, and the sliding shell is tightly fitted with the limiting rod.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, after the fixed shell penetrates into the insertion block, the sliding shell is not limited, and the elasticity of the first damping spring resists and pushes the limit rod.

Then, under the operation of the first damping spring, the sliding shell passes through the fixed shell and pushes the limit rod to pass through the insertion block and enter the reserved hole of the insertion hole, so that the pin shaft and the three-pin bracket can be quickly installed and connected, thereby improving the efficiency and convenience of processing. The limit block is made of elastic material to prevent the sliding shell from being difficult to slide under the push of the first damping spring. At the same time, the limit block follows the sliding shell to slide into the reserved hole of the insertion block for limiting, thereby further improving the connection effect.

[0031] A conventional tripod is formed by a tripod frame 1, a pin shaft 2 and an outer ring 4. The pin shaft 2 is inserted into the tripod frame 1 through an insertion hole 3, and a connecting mechanism 5 is arranged at one end to facilitate the rapid installation of the tripod and improve production efficiency. At the same time, one end of the pin shaft 2 passes through the outer ring 4 and is fixed with a connecting plate 6 for limiting to avoid loosening or detachment. At the same time, it cooperates with the shock absorbing mechanism 7 to have a certain shock absorption performance and improve the service life.

[0032] Reference Figure 1-5 , the connecting mechanism 5 includes an insertion block 501, which is fixed to one end of the pin shaft 2 that penetrates the insertion hole 3, a pressing rod 502 is slidably connected in the pin shaft 2, and a fixed shell 503 is installed at one end of the pressing rod 502 that penetrates the insertion block 501, and the two fixed shells 503 are slidably connected with sliding shells 505 inside, and the inner wall of the two fixed shells 503 is embedded with a first damping spring 504 at a position corresponding to the sliding shell 505, and the lower side of the two sliding shells 505 slides against the limit rod 506, and the upper side of the two sliding shells 505 is fixed with a limit block 507, the insertion block 501 is detachably connected to the pin shaft 2 by a bolt, and the insertion block 501 is movably connected to the fixed shell 503, and the sliding shell 505 forms an elastic structure with the fixed shell 503 through the first damping spring 504, and the sliding shell 505 is tightly fitted with the limit rod 506;

[0033] The pressing rod 502 is pressed to allow the fixed shell 503 to penetrate into the interior of the insertion block 501. Subsequently, under the operation of the first damping spring 504, the sliding shell 505 penetrates out of the fixed shell 503, and pushes the limiting rod 506 to penetrate out of the insertion block 501 and enter the reserved hole of the insertion hole 3, so that the pin shaft 2 and the tripod 1 can be quickly installed and connected, thereby improving the efficiency and convenience of processing.

At the same time, the limiting block 507 follows the sliding shell 505 to slide into the reserved hole of the insertion block 501 for limiting, thereby further improving the connection effect.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5The shock absorbing mechanism 7 includes a connecting seat 701, which is embedded in the inner wall of the connecting plate 6. The end of the connecting seat 701 that passes through the connecting plate 6 and faces the outer ring 4 is movably connected with a universal ball 702. The universal ball 702 passes through the outer wall of the connecting seat 701 and is fixed with a second damping spring 703. The end of the second damping spring 703 that faces the outer ring 4 is fixed with a sleeve 704. The outer ring 4 is fixed with a fixed block 705 at a position corresponding to the sleeve 704. The size of the sleeve 704 matches the size of the fixed block 705. The sleeve 704 is elastically connected to the universal ball 702 through the second damping spring 703. The end of the insertion block 501 that passes through the insertion hole 3 is fixed with a connecting block 8.

The limiting block 507 penetrates into the reserved opening of the insertion block 501 for limiting, thereby improving the fixity of the connection, and the connecting block 8 fixed by the insertion block 501 penetrates into the limiting hole 9 opened in the insertion hole 3 to play a limiting effect.

[0037] The connecting plate 6 is used to limit the pin 2 to prevent it from detaching from the outer ring 4. At the same time, the connecting seat 701 embedded in the connecting plate 6 and the assembled universal ball 702 facilitate the second damping spring 703 to adjust according to the angle after the connecting plate 6 and the pin 2 are rotated under force. At the same time, the sleeve 704 fixed to the second damping spring 703 is sleeved on the fixed block 705, which has a certain shock-absorbing effect when shaking occurs. At the same time, the sleeve 704 is provided with a sliding groove, and the fixed block 705 corresponds to the sliding groove to fix the slider for mutual engagement to prevent detachment.
