[0019] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0020] refer to Figure 1 A driving device 100 provided in one embodiment of the utility model includes a motor 20 and a gear reduction mechanism 40 . The gear reduction mechanism 40 is fixedly mounted to one end of the motor 20 and is used to reduce the output of the motor 20 and output it to the outside through an output shaft 42 .

[0021] refer to Figures 2 to 4 , the output shaft 42 is mounted to the gear reduction mechanism 40 through bearings 41 and 43. The gear reduction mechanism 40 includes an overload protection device 50 mounted to the output shaft 42, and the overload protection device 50 includes a first clutch member 51, a second clutch member 55 and an elastic member 59. The first clutch member 51 has a plurality of first latch teeth 52, and the second clutch member 55 has a plurality of second latch teeth 56. The elastic member 59 applies elastic force to the second clutch member 55, so that the first latch teeth 52 and the second latch teeth 56 can be reset to a meshing state to transmit power; the meshing surfaces of the first latch teeth 52 and the second latch teeth 56, such as the meshing surfaces 53 and 54, are inclined surfaces, so that the first latch teeth 52 and the second latch teeth 56 are disengaged from the meshing state when overloaded.

[0022] The first clutch 51 includes a first ring body sleeved on the output shaft 42, and a first latching tooth 52 is provided at one end of the first ring body, and the first latching teeth 52 are arranged in the circumferential direction of the first ring body. The first clutch 51 can rotate around the output shaft 42 but cannot slide along the output shaft 42. The second clutch 55 includes a second ring body sleeved on the output shaft 42, and a second latching tooth 56 is provided at one end of the second ring body close to the first clutch 51, and the second latching teeth 56 are arranged in the circumferential direction of the second ring body. The second clutch 55 rotates synchronously with the output shaft 42 and can slide along the output shaft 42. The elastic member 59 is a disc spring sleeved on the output shaft 42, and the disc spring is compressed between the bearing 43 and the second clutch 55, and applies pressure to the second clutch 55 so that the second clutch 55 is close to the first clutch 51. However, the first clutch 51 is constrained by the bearing 41 and cannot move away from the second clutch 55.

[0023] When the load is too large, the axial force component of the meshing surface of the first latch 52 and the second latch 56 can make the second clutch 55 overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 59 and disengage from the meshing state, thereby avoiding the motor from stalling and protecting the motor. Alternatively, when the load is too large and the motor 20 may need to be driven in reverse, the axial force component of the meshing surface of the first latch 52 and the second latch 56 can make the second clutch 55 overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 59 and disengage from the meshing state, thereby avoiding the load from driving the motor in reverse and reducing the risk of damage to the gear reduction mechanism 40 and the motor 20.

[0024] In this embodiment, the second clutch member 55 is slidable relative to the output shaft 42, so the elastic member 59 applies elastic force to the second clutch member 55. It can be understood that if the first clutch member 51 is slidable relative to the output shaft 42, the elastic member 59 can apply elastic force to the first clutch member 51 instead.

[0025] In this embodiment, the output shaft 42 is provided with a through hole 45 penetrating the outer diameter thereof, and the second ring body is mounted to the through hole 45 via a connector, and the sliding distance of the second ring body along the output shaft 42 is restricted by the through hole 45. As an alternative, the output shaft 42 may be provided with a flat position, and the flat position is used to realize that the second ring body rotates synchronously with the output shaft 42 and can slide along the output shaft 42.

[0026] In this embodiment, the meshing surfaces 53 and 54 on both sides of the first latching tooth 52 have the same tilt angle, so that the overload protection effect is basically the same during forward rotation and reverse rotation. Alternatively, the meshing surfaces 53 and 54 on both sides of the first latching tooth 52 can have different tilt angles, so that different overload protection effects are achieved during forward rotation and reverse rotation.

[0027] In this embodiment, the gear reduction mechanism 40 includes a driven wheel 48 sleeved on the output shaft 42, and the driven wheel 48 can rotate relative to the output shaft 42; the first clutch 51 is fixed to the driven wheel 48. The motor 20 includes a rotating shaft 22 for outputting to the outside and a worm 24 fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft 22; the gear reduction mechanism 40 also includes a first double gear 44 and a second double gear 46, each of which includes a large gear and a small gear fixed coaxially. Among them, the large gear 44a of the first double gear 44 is meshed with the worm 24, and the large gear 44a is a helical gear; the small gear 44b of the first double gear 44 rotates coaxially with the large gear 44a to achieve the first stage of reduction; the large gear 46a of the second double gear 46 is meshed with the small gear 44b of the first double gear 44, and the small gear 46b of the second double gear 46 rotates coaxially with the large gear 46a to achieve the second stage of reduction. The small gear 46b of the second double gear 46 directly or indirectly drives the driven wheel 48.

[0028] Alternatively, the driven wheel 48 may also be directly driven by the worm 24. Alternatively, more double gears or fewer double gears may be used, for example, only the first double gear 44 may be used without the second double gear 46, in which case the pinion of the first double gear 44 drives the driven wheel 48 directly.

[0029] In this embodiment, the overload protection device 50 is arranged at the last stage of the gear reduction mechanism 40, but the present invention is not limited to this case. For example, the overload protection device 50 can be arranged at the first double gear 44 or the second double gear 46. If it is arranged at the first double gear 44, the volume of the overload protection device 50 can be made smaller, so that the volume of the gear reduction mechanism 40 and the entire drive device is more compact.

[0030] The above embodiments only express the preferred implementation of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the patent of the utility model. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, without departing from the concept of the utility model, several modifications and improvements can be made, such as combining different features in various embodiments, etc., which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model.
