Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of motors, and in particular relates to a reduction motor. Background Art

[0002] The reduction motor mainly includes a motor body and a reduction box. Some motor bodies include a front end cover fixedly connected to the motor housing. The housing of the reduction box and the front end cover are fixedly connected by a locking piece. However, the motor body with the front end cover will increase the axial length of the entire motor.

[0003] At present, the axial length of the motor is optimized by removing the front cover and directly fixing the reduction box body and the motor housing with a locking piece. For example, the Chinese patent with application number 202121347326.3 discloses a planetary right-angle reduction motor, which provides a locking hole at the connecting end of the motor housing and the reduction box body, and achieves the fixation between the reduction box body and the motor housing through the cooperation of the locking piece and the locking hole. However, the provision of locking holes on the motor housing or the reduction box body requires thickening the wall thickness of the motor housing and the reduction box body; this will cause the radial size of the entire motor to increase, which is not conducive to the installation and use of the motor in a small space, such as using the motor in a sliding door. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to provide a reduction motor which makes the overall structure of the motor more compact.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: a reduction motor, comprising a motor housing and a reduction box housing, the motor housing is axially opened, the reduction box housing comprises a connecting portion connected to the opening of the motor housing, the circumferential outer edge of the connecting portion is provided with at least two axial through holes for the locking member to pass through, the inner wall of the motor housing is provided with an annular groove opening radially inward, the annular groove is axially closed, an annular fixing member is embedded in the annular groove, the annular fixing member has an opening that can cause the annular fixing member to shrink circumferentially, the annular fixing member is provided with at least two fixing portions extending radially inward, the fixing portion is provided with a locking hole with an axial opening and corresponding to the through hole one by one, the locking member passes through the through hole and is threadedly engaged with the locking hole.

[0006] By arranging an annular groove on the inner wall of the motor housing, arranging an annular fixing piece in the annular groove, arranging a fixing portion on the annular fixing piece and arranging a locking hole on the fixing portion, there is no need to increase the wall thickness of the motor housing and the reduction gear box body, thereby optimizing the radial occupied space of the fixed end of the motor housing and the reduction gear box body, making the structure of the entire motor more compact and facilitating the use of the motor in a smaller space scenario.

[0007] At the same time, the annular fixing piece has an opening that can cause the annular fixing piece to shrink in the circumferential direction, which can facilitate the annular fixing piece to deform and be embedded and installed in the annular groove.

[0008] Preferably, the annular fixing member is elastic and has a tendency to expand circumferentially outward in the annular fixing groove.

[0009] The annular fixing piece is annular and has a tendency to expand outward, thereby ensuring that the circumferential outer wall of the annular fixing piece is closely fitted with the circumferential inner wall of the annular groove, so that the annular fixing piece will not fall off.

[0010] Preferably, the annular fixing member is partially embedded in the annular groove, and the radial width of the annular fixing member is greater than the radial depth of the annular groove.

[0011] The annular fixing piece is partially embedded in the annular groove, so that the radial depth of the annular groove is set deeper, thereby not increasing the wall thickness of the motor housing, and thus not increasing the radial space of the motor housing; at the same time, the annular fixing piece has its own elasticity, so that it can be partially embedded in the annular groove and partially exposed on the outside of the annular groove.

[0012] Preferably, the locking member is a bolt, and the diameter of the through hole is larger than the diameter of the threaded section of the bolt.

[0013] The diameter of the through hole is larger than the diameter of the threaded section of the bolt, so that the bolt has a larger space for adjustment, which facilitates the bolt to be threadedly matched with the locking hole of the fixing part after passing through the through hole.

[0014] Preferably, the connecting portion is provided with a plurality of radially extending reinforcing ribs.

[0015] Since the wall thickness of the reduction gear box body is set to be relatively thin in this solution, in order to ensure the strength, reinforcing ribs are set at the connection part of the reduction gear box body, thereby enhancing the strength of the reduction gear box body.

[0016] Preferably, an annular extension portion extending axially toward the motor housing is provided at the circumferential inner edge of the end surface of the connecting portion of the reduction gear box body facing the motor housing, and the circumferential outer wall of the annular extension portion is in contact with the circumferential inner wall of the motor housing.

[0017] The radial positioning between the reduction gear box housing and the motor housing is achieved by the circumferential outer wall of the annular extension part being in contact and fit with the circumferential inner wall of the motor housing.

[0018] Preferably, the outer diameter of the connecting portion is the same as the outer diameter of the opening of the motor housing.

[0019] The outer diameter of the connecting portion is the same as the outer diameter of the opening of the motor housing, which can fully meet the mutual assembly requirements between the two without increasing the length in the radial direction, and the structure is more compact.

[0020] The utility model has the advantage of making the overall structure of the motor more compact. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Two through holes 21 are arranged at the circumferential outer edge of the reduction gearbox housing 2, which are evenly spaced and penetrate in the axial direction. The inner wall of the upper end of the motor housing 1 is provided with an annular groove 4 opening radially inward, and the annular groove 4 is axially closed. An annular fixing member 5 is detachably fixed in the annular groove 4. The annular fixing member 5 is annular and elastic; the annular fixing member 5 is partially embedded in the annular groove 4, and the radial width of the annular fixing member 5 is greater than the radial depth of the annular groove 4.
