Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of universal coupling lubrication, in particular to a universal coupling circulation lubrication device. Background Art

[0002] At present, most domestic enterprises usually use universal couplings for transmission of mechanical equipment. Universal couplings can connect two shafts at different angles and axis offsets, and have great installation flexibility. At the same time, they can withstand high-speed rotation and large-angle rotation while maintaining transmission efficiency and stable movement, and have large transmission torque. When the coupling is loaded, friction and heat are generated due to slight reciprocating motion, and the cross-joint of the coupling is often worn, resulting in frequent fractures at the cross-joint of the coupling. Therefore, the coupling should be lubricated regularly to avoid serious consequences. The lubrication cycle of the cross-section of the universal coupling is once a week. Since the equipment runs continuously, it needs to be shut down before the coupling can be thoroughly lubricated and maintained. Now, it is common for equipment to shut down due to failure due to untimely maintenance of the coupling. In the prior art, manual oil dripping lubrication is usually adopted for the cross-section of the universal coupling. When the coupling rotates at high speed, it may cause safety hazards to personnel. Secondly, the lubricating oil in the dripping lubrication cannot reach the cross-section contact surface and cannot play a good lubrication effect. In addition, during the dripping lubrication process, the lubricating oil often drips onto the equipment or the ground, resulting in a waste of lubricating oil and time-consuming and labor-intensive work.

[0005] Furthermore, the connection between the oil storage bag and the universal shaft is connected by a skeleton oil seal.

[0006] Furthermore, an oil filling port is provided on the oil storage bag.

[0007] Furthermore, the four corners of the cross are connected to the oil guide port of the oil storage bag through stainless steel bellows.

[0008] Furthermore, the oil storage bag is made of 316L stainless steel to prevent the lubricating oil from corroding the device.

[0009] Furthermore, the connection between the oil storage bag and the cross-shaped member adopts a concave surface structure, which makes it easier for the lubricating oil to flow into the cross-shaped member smoothly by gravity, thereby achieving a better lubrication effect.

[0010] Furthermore, the cross-head body adopts a stainless steel bellows, which is convenient for the device to achieve optimal shock absorption during the rotation of the universal shaft, while compensating for the displacement difference and angle difference caused by the operation of the universal shaft.
