Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of couplings, in particular to a high-precision safety torque-limiting coupling. Background Art
[0002] The safety coupling is also called a torque limiter, torque limiter, or safety clutch. It is a component that connects the active machine and the working machine. Its main function is overload protection. When the required torque exceeds the set value due to overload or mechanical failure, the torque limiter limits the torque transmitted by the transmission system in the form of slipping. When the overload disappears, it automatically restores the connection, thus preventing mechanical damage and avoiding expensive downtime losses. However, the existing safety coupling structure does have certain defects and disadvantages, which lead to a decrease in accuracy after long-term use. The specific defects and disadvantages are as follows: The disc spring is in contact with the external environment for a long time. At this time, the moisture and dust factors in the external environment will directly affect its fatigue life. At the same time, the non-lubricated structure also directly shortens its fatigue life. The disc spring deforms after fatigue, thereby changing the set torque, which greatly reduces the safety accuracy.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to design a high-precision safety torque-limiting coupling to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a high-precision safety torque-limiting coupling, which can overcome the influence of moisture and dust in the external environment on its fatigue life by isolating the disc spring from the external environment and setting up a lubrication treatment structure, and facilitate lubrication treatment, thereby extending the fatigue life, maintaining the torque, and achieving high safety precision, thereby solving the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.
[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:
[0006] A high-precision safety torque-limiting coupling comprises a safety coupling body, wherein the safety coupling body is composed of a limit assembly and a transmission assembly sleeved on the outer surface of the shaft, the limit assembly comprises a radial gear shaft inner sleeve, an outer surface of the radial gear shaft inner sleeve is movably installed with an overload action body near one end of the transmission assembly, an adjusting nut is spirally installed on the side of the overload action body away from the transmission assembly, a dirty tight sleeve is embedded and installed at one end of the radial gear shaft inner sleeve near the adjusting nut, a plurality of groups of annularly distributed balls are embedded and installed around the outer surface of the radial gear shaft inner sleeve near the overload action body, a disc spring is movably installed at one end of the overload action body near the adjusting nut, a spring groove is provided in the overload action body near the disc spring, a lubricating oil port is provided on the outer surface of the overload action body, the lubricating oil port and the spring groove are connected by an oil passage, and an elastic sealing ring is provided around the outer surface of the adjusting nut near the spring groove.
[0007] As a preferred solution of the utility model, a filter oil nozzle is embedded and installed inside the lubricating oil port.
[0008] As a preferred solution of the utility model, ball grooves are provided around the inner wall of the overload action body near a plurality of groups of balls distributed in an annular shape.
[0009] As a preferred solution of the utility model, the outer surface of the radial gear shaft inner sleeve is provided with a matching external thread near the adjusting nut, and the outer surface of the radial gear shaft inner sleeve is provided with a corresponding sliding groove near several groups of annularly distributed balls.
[0010] As a preferred solution of the utility model, the transmission assembly includes a flange, a bearing and a locking spring, the flange is located on the side of the overload action body away from the adjusting nut, the bearing is embedded in an end face of the flange away from the overload action body, and the locking spring is located on an end face of the bearing away from the flange.
[0011] As a preferred solution of the utility model, a toothed surface is provided on one end face of the flange close to the overload action body, and locking grooves corresponding to a plurality of groups of balls distributed in an annular shape are provided on the toothed surface.
[0012] As a preferred solution of the utility model, the elastic sealing ring is made of custom metal, and the elastic sealing ring and the adjusting nut are integrally processed and formed. At the same time, a ring groove matching the elastic sealing ring is opened on one end surface of the overload action body close to the adjusting nut.
[0013] Beneficial effects: The disc springs in the existing safety couplings are in contact with the external environment for a long time. At this time, the moisture and dust factors in the external environment will directly affect the length of their fatigue life. At the same time, the lack of lubrication treatment structure also directly greatly shortens their fatigue life. The disc springs are deformed after fatigue, thereby changing the set torque, and thus greatly reducing the problem of safety precision. The utility model isolates the running disc springs from the external environment through an additional elastic sealing ring, which can overcome the influence of moisture and dust factors in the external environment on their fatigue life. At the same time, the disc springs in the spring groove can be lubricated through the additional lubricating oil ports and oil circuits, which can extend the fatigue life, maintain the torque, and achieve high safety precision, thereby solving the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.
