DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0027] The technical solution of the utility model will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

In addition, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are only used to describe the difference in names, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance. The physical quantities in the formula, if not separately marked, should be understood as basic quantities of the basic units of the International System of Units, or derived quantities derived from the basic quantities through mathematical operations such as multiplication, division, differentiation or integration.
[0029] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it 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 it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0030] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the electric drive bridge provided by the embodiment of the utility model includes: a bridge housing 100, a transmission 200 and an oil guide member 300; the transmission 200 has a main reduction gear 201 whose axis extends in the horizontal direction, the bridge housing 100 is connected to the transmission 200, and the bridge housing 100 is provided with oil that partially immerses the main reduction gear 201 from bottom to top; the oil guide member 300 is connected to the bridge housing 100 or the transmission 200, and the oil guide member 300 has an oil guide surface 301 extending along the circumference of the main reduction gear 201, so as to prevent the oil stirred by the main reduction gear 201 from impacting the bridge housing 100.
[0031] The oil can soak the main reduction gear 201 and be stirred by the main reduction gear 201. However, the oil stirred by the main reduction gear 201 will flow along the oil guide surface 301. The oil amount stirred by the main reduction gear 201 is reduced under the obstruction of the oil guide 300, and the stirred oil is prevented from hitting the bridge housing 100, which reduces the mechanical energy loss on the one hand and reduces the heat caused by the oil impact on the other hand, and avoids the parts from being shortened due to overheating.
[0032] like Figure 3As shown, in the embodiment of the utility model, the distance between the oil guide surface 301 and the top circle of the main reduction gear 201 is 6mm to 10mm, which ensures that the main reduction gear 201 has sufficient oil for lubrication on the one hand, and prevents excessive oil from being stirred by the main reduction gear 201 on the other hand, so as to ensure the mechanical efficiency of the electric drive axle.
[0033] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the oil guide member 300 includes: a first side baffle 302 and a second side baffle 303 connected to the oil guide surface 301; the first side baffle 302 is opposite to the second side baffle 303, and the main reduction gear 201 is located between the first side baffle 302 and the second side baffle 303, and is blocked by the first side baffle 302 and the second side baffle 303 to prevent excessive oil from being stirred by the main reduction gear 201.
[0034] Furthermore, the first side baffle plate 302 and the second side baffle plate 303 are respectively 8 mm to 15 mm away from the main reduction gear 201 .
[0035] Specifically, one of the first side baffle plate 302 and the second side baffle plate 303 is 8 mm to 11 mm away from the main reduction gear 201, and the other is 12 mm to 15 mm away from the main reduction gear 201. In other words, when the main reduction gear 201 is equipped with helical teeth, as the main reduction gear 201 rotates, the oil flows from top to bottom along the helical teeth toward the second side baffle plate 303, and the second side baffle plate 303 is farther away from the main reduction gear 201 than the first side baffle plate 302, thereby ensuring that the agitated oil can flow smoothly between the main reduction gear 201 and the second side baffle plate 303.
[0036] Furthermore, the oil guide member 300 also includes: a first connecting plate 304 and a second connecting plate 305; the first connecting plate 304 is connected to the first side baffle 302, the second connecting plate 305 is connected to the second side baffle 303, and the first connecting plate 304 and the second connecting plate 305 are respectively connected to the transmission 200.
[0037] Among them, the first connecting plate 304 and the second connecting plate 305 are respectively provided with a plurality of mounting holes, each mounting hole is configured with a boss portion, and a plurality of bolts are used to pass through the plurality of mounting holes one by one and are installed in the housing of the transmission 200, so that the oil guide member 300 is fixed relative to the transmission 200.
[0038] like Figure 4 As shown, a first rib 306 is connected between the first connecting plate 304 and the first side baffle 302 , and a second rib 307 is connected between the second connecting plate 305 and the second side baffle 303 , so as to improve the structural strength of the oil guide member 300 .
[0039] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the bottom end of the oil guide member 300 is provided with a lower edge rib 308, the top end of the oil guide member 300 is provided with an upper edge rib 309, the oil guide surface 301 extends from the lower edge rib 308 to the upper edge rib 309, the lower edge rib 308 and the upper edge rib 309 both extend in a direction away from the main reduction gear 201, and the lower edge rib 308 and the upper edge rib 309 are respectively spaced from the transmission 200 to form an oil channel. The oil can enter and exit the oil guide member 300 through the oil channel, and the oil can flow smoothly under the stirring of the main reduction gear 201. In addition, under the blocking effect of the lower edge rib 308 and the upper edge rib 309, the oil entering and exiting the oil guide member 300 has little effect on the oil in the axle housing 100, thereby preventing the oil flow from impacting the axle housing 100.
[0040] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the surface of the oil guide member 300 facing away from the main reduction gear 201 is provided with a longitudinal rib 310 extending along the circumferential direction of the main reduction gear 201. In addition, the surface of the oil guide member 300 facing away from the main reduction gear 201 is provided with a transverse rib 311 extending along the axial direction of the main reduction gear 201. The structural strength of the oil guide member 300 is improved under the action of the longitudinal rib 310 and the transverse rib 311.
[0041] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the new energy vehicle provided by the embodiment of the utility model is equipped with the electric drive axle recorded in the above-mentioned implementation manner.
[0042] In the embodiment of the utility model, the new energy vehicle has the technical effect of the above-mentioned electric drive axle, which will not be repeated here.
[0043] 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, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solution deviate from the scope of the technical solution of the embodiments of the utility model.
