Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of harmonic reducers, in particular to an automatic filtering circulating lubrication device for harmonic reducers. Background Art

[0002] There are many types of reducers with different models. Reducers of different models and specifications have different application fields. Among them, harmonic reducer is a new type of reducer developed based on the transmission principle of using controllable elastic deformation of flexible elements to transmit motion and power. With the rapid development of industrial automation technology, harmonic reducers are increasingly used in intelligent occasions, and force control is necessary for most intelligent occasions. Torque sensor is a necessary sensor device to achieve force control. Harmonic reducer, as the torque output component of the intelligent module, can reflect the changes in the output force and bearing capacity of the intelligent module in real time and accurately.

[0003] The existing harmonic reducer mainly includes three basic components: a wave generator, a flexible wheel and a rigid wheel. The harmonic reducer is a gear transmission device that transmits motion and power by assembling a flexible bearing on a wave generator to make the flexible gear produce controllable elastic deformation and meshing with the rigid gear. Since the harmonic reducer has the advantages of large transmission ratio, high load-bearing capacity, high transmission accuracy, high transmission efficiency, small size and light weight, it is widely used in the collaborative robot industry.

[0004] In the prior art, most harmonic reducers apply lubricating paste directly on the wave generator of the harmonic reducer. When the harmonic reducer is in use, the wave generator rotates at a high speed at the lower end to generate heat, causing the lubricating paste to melt into a liquid state and play a lubricating role inside the harmonic reducer. However, after multiple uses, the lubricating paste is consumed more, and the harmonic reducer needs to be disassembled and the lubricating paste is added. After the addition is completed, the harmonic reducer is reassembled. The disassembly of the harmonic reducer is relatively cumbersome, and when the harmonic reducer is in use, waste chips generated due to wear will enter the lubricating paste, thereby reducing the lubricating effect of the lubricating paste. For this reason, we propose an automatic filtering circulating lubrication device for a harmonic reducer. Utility Model Content
