[0021] Embodiment 1:

[0022] like Figure 1-2 As shown, a high-precision fine-tuning mechanism of a torque wrench comprises a wrench body 1 and a driving unit 2 arranged inside the wrench body 1, the driving unit 2 comprises a servo motor 3, a planetary gear frame 4, a connecting ring 5 and a retaining frame 6, the servo motor 3 is fixedly installed inside the driving unit 2, the planetary gear frame 4 is sleeved on the driving shaft of the servo motor 3, the connecting ring 5 is fixedly connected to the planetary gear frame 4 through a plurality of axially evenly distributed connecting rods 7, the retaining frame 6 is coaxially installed with the connecting ring 5, the connecting rod 7 is plugged and fixed with the connecting ring 5, an anchor rod 8 is arranged at one end of the connecting rod 7 plugged in the connecting ring, the axis of the anchor rod 8 is arranged at an acute angle to the axis of the connecting rod 7, a pressure sensor is arranged at one end of the anchor rod 8 close to the planetary gear frame 4, a voltage controller located inside the wrench body 1 is arranged on the outside of the servo motor, the retaining frame 6 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the wrench body 1, the connecting ring 5 can rotate axially relative to the retaining frame 6, the outer wall of the retaining frame 6 is provided with a rubber protective layer, and a plurality of heat dissipation holes are provided on the wrench body 1.

[0023] like Figure 1-2As shown, an automatic clutch is arranged between the connecting ring 5 and the retaining frame 6, a completely closed lubricating oil working chamber is arranged inside the planetary gear frame 4, the anchor rod 8 is plugged and fixed with the connecting rod 7, a plurality of through holes are evenly arranged axially on the outer wall of the connecting ring 5, the anchor rod 8 passes through the through holes and is plugged and fixed with the connecting rod 7, and a tin foil layer is arranged inside the wrench body 1.

[0024] Specific implementation process: In the process of the motor decelerating and adding torque to transfer the force to the connecting ring through the connecting rod through the planetary gear carrier, the connecting rod is also subjected to the tensile force of tightening the connecting ring, and because the connecting rod is fixed to the connecting ring through the anchor rod, the tensile force is applied to the side of the anchor rod close to the planetary gear carrier. In this way, the anchoring area of ​​the connecting rod and the connecting ring is increased, and the pressure between the connecting rod and the connecting ring can be accurately identified. Accurate pressure identification can ensure that the working voltage of the servo motor is adapted to the torque required to be provided, thereby achieving the effect of fine-tuning the working voltage of the motor. The automatic clutch detects that the rotating shaft of the servo motor has reached the working limit voltage. After being pressed and no longer rotating, the connection between the output shaft of the servo motor and the input shaft of the planetary gear carrier is disconnected, thereby protecting the servo motor and avoiding the problem of overload caused by the servo motor's internal temperature rising sharply due to the servo motor's shaft being unable to rotate under high voltage for a long time. Because the anchor rod is inserted obliquely into the connecting ring and is used to plug and lock the position relationship between the connecting rod and the connecting ring, the anchor rod evenly bears the tension of the connecting rod. When damage occurs, the anchor rod deforms first. Because the anchor rod is located inside the connecting ring, it will not bounce off after deformation, reducing the destructiveness to the inside of the equipment, so it is necessary to anchor the connecting rod through the anchor rod.

[0025] In the embodiments disclosed in the present invention, the terms "install", "connect", "connect", "fix" and the like should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "connect" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; "connect" can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments disclosed in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0026] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present invention and is not a limitation of the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make non-creative modifications to the present embodiment as needed, but such modifications are protected by patent law as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
