Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of helicopters, in particular to a split gear and a helicopter. Background Art

[0002] The existing helicopter is powered by an electric motor. A pinion is installed on the motor shaft of the brushless motor. The pinion is meshed with the main gear to transmit power to the main shaft, which drives the propeller to rotate. The advantage of this structure is that a smaller brushless motor can be used, and it can provide strong kinetic energy through gear reduction transmission. However, this method puts a heavy burden on the main gear. The weight of the helicopter will affect the flight performance. Metal materials are too heavy. The existing main gear uses lightweight plastic. The heat resistance and strength of the plastic main gear are poor. When in use, the brushless motor runs at high speed and generates high heat. The plastic main gear rotates at high speed in a high-heat environment, which causes severe wear and tear, a short life, and needs to be replaced frequently. Utility Model Content

[0026] The gear ring 21 is made of a first material, and the gear bracket 22 is made of a second material, and the strength, heat resistance and toughness of the first material are greater than those of the second material. The first material can be a metal special material or a polymer special material, with high heat resistance, strength and toughness, and can specifically be titanium alloy, high-speed steel, nickel-based high-temperature alloy and cobalt-based high-temperature alloy, etc. The second material can be aluminum or plastic, with low density, light weight, relatively good strength and toughness, low price and easy processing.

The first fixing protrusion 215 is fixed to the gear bracket 22. Those skilled in the art may choose to adopt various fixing methods in the prior art as needed, which are not specifically limited here. For example, by bridging fixation and / or screw fixation. Among them, bridging fixation refers to using a fixing member to fix the first fixing protrusion 215 and the gear bracket 22 respectively, so as to fix the first fixing protrusion 215 and the gear bracket 22 together.

[0028] It is understandable that, in some embodiments, the first fixing protrusion can be an integral structure with the annular body, with the same height as the annular body, and there is no physical dividing line.

Along the height direction of the annular body 211, the height of the first fixing protrusion 215 is less than the height of the annular body 211, and the height of the second fixing protrusion 2253 is less than the height of the rim 2251. The annular body 211 has a first end 2111 and a second end 2113 opposite to each other, and the rim 2251 has a third end 22511 and a fourth end 22513 opposite to each other.

The second fixing protrusion is annular, which is formed by the annular body extending toward the center of the gear ring. The first fixing protrusion is fixed to the annular second fixing protrusion.

[0036] In other embodiments, the first fixing protrusion may be annular, formed by the annular body extending toward the center of the gear ring, and the second fixing protrusion may be multiple, formed by the rim extending toward the first fixing protrusion, and the second fixing protrusion is fixed to the annular first fixing protrusion.
