[0025] In order to make the technical concept and advantages of the utility model creation to achieve its utility model purpose more clear, the technical solution of the utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the following embodiments are only used to explain and illustrate the preferred implementation of the utility model and should not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of the utility model patent claim. Example
[0026] See also Figure 1-Figure 3The wheel in-situ steering / reversing driving mechanism of the utility model comprises a mounting housing 20, in which a first sun gear 21 and a second sun gear 22 are sequentially arranged axially in the mounting housing 20, and a first planetary gear 23 and a second planetary gear 24 are arranged parallel to the sun gear, wherein the first planetary gear 23 is meshed and connected with the first sun gear 21 through left teeth, and the second planetary gear 24 is meshed and connected with the second sun gear 22 through right teeth; the first planetary gear 23 and the second planetary gear 24 are meshed and connected through middle teeth; the output shaft The inner part of the output shaft 25 is mounted in cooperation with the second sun gear 22 through the bearing structure 26; a forward and reverse driving spline shaft head 27 is provided at the inner end of the output shaft 25, and a double-sided coupling 28 (transmission, and can play a clutch / forward and reverse control role) is installed on the forward and reverse driving spline shaft head 27 in sliding cooperation and through spline connection. The left and right end faces of the double-sided coupling 28 are respectively matched with the connecting end faces of the first sun gear 21 and the second sun gear 22 (designed in conjunction with the coupling); the working end face of the coupling is as shown in FIG. Figure 7 As shown, it is a conventional coupling design (the two sun gears and the relative working surfaces of the coupling are matched with each other in a matching design), except that a groove 281 for connecting and installing a clutch lever is provided in the middle of the double-sided coupling 28 for the purpose of forward and reverse clutch control (implemented by a push-pull rod in conjunction with a shift fork).
[0027] Figure 2 Shown Figure 1 The top view of the AA section. Figure 3 Schematic diagram of the connection and working relationship between the sun gear and the planetary gear; wherein the first planetary gear 23 meshes with the first sun gear 21 through the end teeth, the second planetary gear 24 meshes with the second sun gear 22 through the end teeth, and the first planetary gear 23 and the second planetary gear 24 are meshed and connected through the middle teeth.
[0028] The wheel in-situ steering / reversing drive mechanism, in which the first sun gear 21 is connected to the double-spline output shaft 3 (one side of the drive axle) of the drive axle through the first sun gear connecting spline 32, and the outer end of the output shaft 25 connected to the double-sided coupling 28 (clutch direction selection, transmission function) through the forward and reverse drive spline shaft head 27 is provided with a spline or spline groove structure connected to the wheel. Figure 1 In the figure, reference numeral 1 is the axle body, 11 is the axle housing, 31 is the spline head of the double spline output shaft 3 that matches the differential on one side (butting with the internal spline on the right side of the original differential), the first sun gear connecting spline 32 is interference fit with the first sun gear, and the double spline output shaft 3 and the first sun gear 21 have the same rotation direction. The right wheel is installed at the outer end of the output shaft 25. Example
[0029] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 6The wheel in-situ steering / reversing driving mechanism of this embodiment is different from that of the first embodiment in that the first planetary gear 23 and the second planetary gear 24 are a group of two, and this embodiment uses two groups. The two groups of planetary gears are respectively meshed with the first sun gear 21 and the second sun gear 22 and are arranged in the mounting housing 20 of the reversing driving mechanism around the first sun gear 21 and the second sun gear 22. Figure 3 Only one group is taken as an example to illustrate its working principle.
[0030] The first planetary gear 23 and the second planetary gear 24 may be used in one set or three sets. The purpose of using two or three sets of long planetary gear sets is to increase the torque of the sun gear.
[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, the first planetary gear 23 and the second planetary gear 24 are both long planetary gears. The upper and lower four long planetary gears are divided into two groups, each with two. Only about two-thirds of each long planetary gear has teeth, and the remaining one-third is a light axis. The two long planetary gears are installed one in the positive direction and the other in the negative direction. The two long planetary gears are meshed with the first sun gear and the second sun gear respectively, and the two sun gears realize positive and negative rotation under the action of the two long planetary gears.
[0032] For the stability of the transmission output of the wheel in-situ steering / reversing driving mechanism, an extension portion is provided at one end of the mounting housing 20 connected to the output shaft 25, and the middle portion of the output shaft 25 is mounted in cooperation with the extension portion through a bearing. Example
[0033] See also Figure 1-Figure 5This embodiment is a specific implementation of the in-situ steering motor vehicle drive axle structure. For the motor vehicle drive axle, a wheel in-situ steering / reversing driving mechanism is set on at least one output shaft of the axle, and the wheel in-situ steering / reversing driving mechanism includes a first sun gear 21 and a second sun gear 22, wherein the first sun gear 21 is connected to a double-spline output shaft 3 on one side of the drive axle body 1 through a spline (a first sun gear connecting spline 32), and the second sun gear 22 is connected to the output shaft 25 through a bearing structure 26; a first planetary gear 23 and a second planetary gear 24 are installed in the mounting housing 20 of the wheel in-situ steering / reversing driving mechanism, wherein The first planetary gear 23 is meshed with the first sun gear 21 through the left teeth, and the second planetary gear 24 is meshed with the second sun gear 22 through the right teeth; the first planetary gear 23 and the second planetary gear 24 are meshed with the teeth in the middle part; a forward and reverse driving spline shaft head 27 is provided at the inner end of the output shaft 25, and a double-sided coupling 28 is provided on the forward and reverse driving spline shaft head 27 to slide with it and connect with it through a spline, and a groove 281 for installing a clutch lever is provided in the middle of the double-sided coupling 28, and the end faces of the double-sided coupling 28 are respectively matched with the connecting end faces of the first sun gear 21 and the second sun gear 22. Under the action of the clutch lever, the double-sided coupling 28 can be meshed with the first sun gear 21 and the second sun gear 22 respectively, and the output shaft 25 is driven by the double-sided coupling 28 to realize the power transmission in the forward and reverse directions. In this way, when it is necessary to turn in place, the right wheel and the left wheel move in opposite directions, so that the vehicle turns in place.
[0034] like Figure 4-Figure 5 As shown, only one output shaft on one side is provided with a set of in-situ steering and reversing drive mechanism. Under normal driving state, the first sun gear drives the output shaft 25 through the double-sided coupling 28, and the wheels on both sides rotate forward or reverse to realize forward or reverse. When in-situ steering is required, the double-sided coupling 28 is connected to the right side and meshed with the second sun gear. At this time, the first sun gear is reversed through the two planetary gears, and the second planetary gear is linked with the double-sided coupling 28 through the second sun gear, driving the output shaft to move in the opposite direction. In this way, the left wheel rotates forward and the right wheel reverses, realizing in-situ steering.
[0035] The transition effect is achieved through the ingenious design of the bearing structure 26. During normal driving, the second sun gear idles under the transmission action of the first sun gear and the planetary gears, and the output shaft 25 is connected to the first sun gear through the double-sided coupling 28, driving the right wheel (let's call it the right wheel, only relative to the illustrated implementation method) and the left wheel to rotate in the same direction; when the right wheel needs to reverse / turn on the spot, the output shaft 25 is connected to the second sun gear through the double-sided coupling 28, and the second sun gear drives / drives the output shaft 25 to rotate in the opposite direction through the double-sided coupling 28, synchronously driving the right wheel to reverse.
[0036] The first sun gear 21 and the double-spline output shaft 3 of the drive axle may also be designed as an integral unit.
[0037] As mentioned above, the first planetary gear 23 and the second planetary gear 24 are at least one group, or two groups or three groups. When the planetary gears are two groups or three groups, they are respectively meshed and connected with the first sun gear 21 and the second sun gear 22 and are arranged around the first sun gear 21 and the second sun gear 22 in the mounting housing 20 of the reversing drive mechanism. Example
[0038] The on-site steering motor vehicle drive axle structure of this embodiment is different from that of the third embodiment in that: a set of on-site steering reversing drive mechanisms are respectively arranged on the output shafts on both sides of the axle. Thus, by respectively arranging a set of on-site steering reversing drive mechanisms on the output shafts on both sides of the axle, the left and right wheels can have four state combinations, realizing on-site steering in various directions, and being more convenient and flexible to use.
[0039] Embodiment 5, 6
[0040] These two embodiments are motor vehicles for on-the-spot steering using the aforementioned drive axle structure, wherein at least the front axle or the rear axle uses the drive axle structure as described in Embodiment 3 or Embodiment 4. A clutch for on-the-spot steering / wheel reversal control is provided in the vehicle body cab, and a clutch lever connected to the clutch is connected and installed in cooperation with a groove 281 for installing the clutch lever of the on-the-spot reversal drive mechanism.
[0041] The drive axle structure as described in Example 3 or Example 4 may also be used on both the front axle and the rear axle of the vehicle drive axle.
[0042] The utility model realizes the on-site steering of the vehicle with a simple structure and low cost, is economical and practical, is easy to operate, improves the practical performance and applicable scenarios of the motor vehicle, and can enhance the user's driving experience. The implementation and maintenance costs are low, and the performance is reliable.
[0043] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model and does not constitute a limitation of the utility model. Under the guidance of the prior art, those skilled in the art can make other modifications to the implementation of the utility model without creative work. Any modification made within the spirit and principle of the utility model or simple replacement or equivalent replacement using conventional technical means in the field shall be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
