Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of gearboxes, in particular to a steering device of a gearbox, a gearbox and a crawler vehicle. Background Art
[0002] Compared with wheels, crawler tracks have a larger relative area in contact with the ground, and the force per unit area is small, so the vehicle is not easy to sink. Therefore, it will not damage the plow bottom layer and has good paddy field walking performance, so it is widely used in agricultural machinery, such as harvesters, rotary tillers, etc.
[0003] Due to the large contact area of the crawler tracks, the turning resistance is greater than when running in a straight line when working in the field. When turning, agricultural machinery generally adopts the method of braking while turning. At this time, its forward driving force is only half of that when running in a straight line, while the resistance is twice that of running in a straight line. The stability is poor and it is easy to cause the crawler tracks to slip. Once slipping, the crawler tracks will discharge the soil backwards, causing the whole machine to gradually sink, and eventually causing the agricultural machinery to sink. Utility Model Content

[0028] Embodiment 1:
[0029] This embodiment provides a steering device for a gearbox, referring to Figures 1 to 4 , including a housing 1, a first output shaft 2 and a second output shaft 3 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the housing 1, a power transmission shaft 4 and a transmission structure 5 for transmitting power to the first output shaft 2 and the second output shaft 3, a first power transmission assembly and a second power transmission assembly are respectively arranged on both ends of the power transmission shaft 4, and the first power transmission assembly and the second power transmission assembly are respectively matched with the first output shaft 2 and the second output shaft 3 in transmission, so that the power transmission shaft 4 can drive the first output shaft 2 and the second output shaft 3 to rotate when rotating, and in addition, the transmission structure 5 is connected to the first power transmission assembly and the first output shaft 2, which can change the rotation direction of the first output shaft 2 so that the first The output shaft and the second output shaft 3 rotate in opposite directions. During specific use, the first output shaft 2 in the device is connected to a crawler track, and the second output shaft 3 is connected to a crawler track. When the crawler vehicle needs to turn, the power transmission shaft 51 in the box body 1 is controlled to rotate, driving the first output shaft 2 and the second output shaft 3 to rotate in opposite directions, thereby driving the two crawlers of the crawler vehicle to move in opposite directions to achieve the turning of the crawler vehicle. Compared with the prior art, on the one hand, it helps to improve the stability of the crawler track during turning, helping the crawler vehicle to pass through uneven terrain or areas with more obstacles more smoothly, and on the other hand, it can reduce the turning radius, making the steering of the crawler vehicle more flexible.
[0030] Specifically, the first power transmission assembly is configured as a double sliding gear 41, which is splined to the power transmission shaft 4, the double sliding gear 41 includes a first power transmission gear 411, the transmission structure 5 includes a transmission shaft 51 and a first transmission gear 52 and a second transmission gear 53 provided on the transmission shaft 51, the first output shaft 2 is provided with a first output gear 21 meshing with the second transmission gear 53, the first power transmission gear 411 meshes with the first transmission gear 52, when the first power transmission gear 411 rotates, it drives the first transmission gear 52 to rotate, and the second transmission gear 53 drives the first output gear 21 to rotate. At the same time, the second power transmission assembly includes a third power transmission gear 422, and the second output shaft 3 is provided with a second output gear 22 meshing with the third power transmission gear.
[0031] It can be understood that when the first output gear 21 is driven to rotate by the second transmission gear 53, the rotation direction of the first output gear 21 is the same as that of the first power transmission gear 411, that is, the rotation direction of the first output gear 21 and the second output gear 22 are opposite, and the first output shaft 2 and the second output shaft 3 rotate in opposite directions.
[0032] Furthermore, the double sliding gear 41 also includes a second power transmission gear 412. The double sliding gear 41 is connected to a steering control assembly 6. The steering control assembly 6 is rotatably mounted on the housing 1. When the steering control assembly 6 rotates, it can drive the double sliding gear 41 to slide along the axial direction of the power transmission shaft 4, thereby adjusting the positions of the first power transmission gear 411 and the second power transmission gear 412 on the power transmission shaft 4, so that the second power transmission gear 412 is meshed with the first output gear 21 or the first power transmission gear 411 is meshed with the first transmission gear 52. When the second power transmission gear 412 is meshed with the first output gear 21, the first power transmission gear 411 is disengaged, and the first output shaft 2 and the second output shaft 3 rotate in the same direction. This structure is used for the normal travel state of the crawler vehicle; when the first power transmission gear 411 is meshed with the first transmission gear 52, the second power transmission gear 412 is disengaged, and the first output shaft 2 and the second output shaft 3 rotate in the opposite direction. This structure is used for steering the crawler vehicle.
[0033] The steering assembly includes an operating rod 61 and a fork 62. The operating rod 61 is rotatably installed on the box body 1. One end of the fork 62 is movably connected to the operating rod 61, and the other end is connected to the double sliding gear 41. The double sliding gear 41 is provided with a groove matching the fork 62 to ensure that the double gear 41 can slide accordingly under the push of the fork 62. In actual use, the operating rod 61 can be rotated to enable the fork 62 to push the double sliding gear 41 to move on the power transmission shaft 4.
[0034] In this embodiment, the first power transmission gear 411 is set to have the same number of teeth as the first transmission gear 52, the second transmission gear 53 is set to have the same number of teeth as the first output gear 21, and the third power transmission gear 422 is set to have the same number of teeth as the second output gear 31. When the first output shaft 2 and the second output shaft 3 rotate in opposite directions, the rotation speeds of the two are the same, thereby realizing the on-the-spot turning of the crawler vehicle.
[0035] In this embodiment, a connecting portion 54 is provided between the first transmission gear 52 and the second transmission gear 53. The connecting portion 54 is sleeved on the second transmission shaft 51. The connecting portion 54 forms an integral structure between the first transmission gear 52 and the second transmission gear 53, so that the first transmission gear 52 can directly drive the second transmission gear 53 to rotate when rotating, which helps to improve the transmission efficiency.
