Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lawn mower transmission structures, in particular to a speed-changing pulley and a speed-changing system. Background Art

[0002] Riding lawn mowers are mechanical tools commonly used for pruning and maintaining lawns and vegetation. They are mainly used in garden decoration pruning, lawn greening pruning, urban streets, green scenic spots, garden pruning, field weeding and other fields. This type of lawn mower generally adopts two speed change modes: manual mode and hydraulic mode, as follows:

[0003] Manual mode: It is to achieve different speeds of the whole vehicle by manually switching the gearbox gears and executing different gears. Such a gearbox is relatively complex, occupies a large space, and has a high cost. At the same time, the impact force components are large when shifting gears, and there is a sense of frustration.

[0004] Hydraulic mode: The hydraulic pump and gears in the hydraulic control mechanism and hydraulic transmission enable the vehicle to achieve different speeds. This mechanism has high precision requirements, high costs, complex control mechanisms, and large space requirements.

[0005] In order to solve the technical problems existing in the manual mode and hydraulic mode, some lawn mowers currently use a continuously variable transmission system. This speed change method is more accurate and smoother than the traditional clutch speed change. The continuously variable transmission system uses a continuously variable transmission ratio and achieves speed change by changing the transmission ratio. However, the speed change pulley in the existing continuously variable transmission system generally uses a fixed wheel and a movable wheel. The diameter of the transmission belt in the speed change pulley is changed by changing the groove width of the two wheels; when the lawn mower is in neutral, the transmission belt is easy to contact with the fixed wheel, causing the transmission belt to drive the driven shaft to rotate, which also poses certain safety hazards. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of the defects in the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a speed change pulley and a speed change system, so as to avoid the contact between the transmission belt and the first wheel disc when in neutral.

[0035] Embodiment 1

[0036] like Figure 1-7As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, a variable speed pulley is provided, including a first wheel disc 10 and a second wheel disc 20. The first wheel disc 10 is provided with a first conical surface 11 and a groove 12 which are collinear with its own axis, and the first conical surface 11 is arranged outside the groove 12. The second wheel disc 20 is provided with a first annular boss 21 and a second conical surface 22 which are collinear with its own axis. The axis of the second wheel disc 20 is collinear with the axis of the first wheel disc 10. The first wheel disc 10 is fixed on the output shaft 40, and the second wheel disc 20 can move relative to the first wheel disc 10 along the direction of its own axis. The first annular boss 21 extends into the groove 12, and the outer side wall of the first annular boss 21 is provided with an annular flange 23. The second conical surface 22 is arranged outside the first annular boss 21, and a belt groove 30 with a variable groove width is formed between the second conical surface 22 and the first conical surface 11.

[0037] When the external lifting actuator (not shown in the drawings) drives the second wheel disc 20 to move relative to the first wheel disc 10, if the width of the belt groove 30 becomes smaller, the diameter of the transmission belt in the belt groove 30 will become larger. Correspondingly, if the width of the belt groove 30 becomes larger, the diameter of the transmission belt in the belt groove 30 will become smaller. In this way, the acceleration or deceleration of the lawn mower can be controlled.

[0038] The present embodiment discloses a variable speed pulley, which is designed with an annular flange 23 on the outer side wall of the first annular boss 21. When the transmission belt is wrapped around the outer side wall of the first annular boss 21, the annular flange 23 can limit the position of the transmission belt on the first annular boss 21, so that the transmission belt cannot be separated from the first annular boss 21, thereby avoiding the transmission belt from contacting the first wheel 10 fixed to the output shaft 40 when the gear is in neutral (that is, the output shaft 40 does not drive the second wheel 20 to rotate), thereby avoiding the phenomenon that the transmission belt drives the driven shaft to actively rotate.

[0039] In one embodiment, in order to increase the effective contact width between the transmission belt and the outer side wall of the first annular boss 21 , the annular flange 23 is provided on the end surface of the first annular boss 21 .

[0040] In one embodiment, the bottom of the groove 12 is provided with a first through hole 13 colinear with the axis thereof, and the edge of the first through hole 13 extends toward the second wheel disc 20 to form a second annular boss 14, and the second annular boss 14 extends into the first annular boss 21. By designing the second annular boss 14 on the first wheel disc 10, the first wheel disc 10 is sleeved on the output shaft 40 by using the first through hole 13 and the second annular boss 14, so that during the assembly process, it is convenient to fix the first wheel disc 10 on the output shaft 40 to realize the installation of the first wheel disc 10.

[0041] In one embodiment, the second wheel disc 20 has a second through hole 24 colinear with its own axis, the first annular boss 21 is disposed outside the second through hole 24 , and the edge of the second through hole 24 extends away from the first wheel disc 10 to form a third annular boss 25 .

[0042] During the assembly process, the output shaft 40 will pass through the first annular boss 21, the second through hole 24 and the third annular boss 25, and the output shaft 40 will not contact the first annular boss 21, the second through hole 24 and the third annular boss 25. The second wheel disc 20 is mounted on the lifting seat 60 through the third annular boss 25 and the bearing 50, that is, the second wheel disc 20 and the lifting seat 60 are rotationally matched. When the lifting actuator drives the lifting seat 60 to move along the axial direction of the output shaft 40, the second wheel disc 20 will be driven to move relative to the first wheel disc 10, so as to adjust the slot width of the belt slot 30.

[0043] In one embodiment, in order to improve the overall structural strength of the first wheel disc 10 , a plurality of first reinforcing ribs 15 are provided on a side of the first wheel disc 10 facing away from the second wheel disc 20 .

[0044] In one embodiment, a fourth annular boss 26 is provided on the side of the second wheel disc 20 facing away from the first wheel disc 10. The fourth annular boss 26 is arranged outside the third annular boss 25, and the axis of the fourth annular boss 26 is colinear with the axis of the third annular boss 25. When the second wheel disc 20, the bearing 50 and the lifting seat 60 are assembled, the fourth annular boss 26 is arranged outside the bearing 50, so that the bearing 50 can be shielded to a certain extent to prevent impurities from entering.

[0045] In one embodiment, in order to improve the overall structural strength of the second wheel disc 20 , a plurality of second reinforcing ribs 27 are provided on the side of the second wheel disc 20 facing away from the first wheel disc 10 , and the second reinforcing ribs 27 are connected to the outer side wall of the fourth annular boss 26 .

[0046] Embodiment 2

[0047] In another embodiment of the utility model, a speed change system is provided, including the speed change pulley in the above-mentioned embodiment 1. By using the above-mentioned speed change pulley, the stability and safety of the lawn mower during use are ensured.

However, it is understood that the embodiments of the present utility model can be practiced without these specific details. In some examples, well-known methods, structures and techniques are not shown in detail so as not to obscure the understanding of this specification.

[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model, rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein by equivalents.
