[0017] The structure of the utility model is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments are descriptive rather than restrictive.
[0018] A transmission device for heavy-load deep-sea steering gear, see Figure 1 The invention point is: it includes a motor 1, an angle sensor 2, a speed transmission unit, a power output unit and an output sealing device.
[0019] The speed-changing transmission unit adopts a combination structure of planetary transmission and cycloid transmission to realize the speed reduction transmission of the motor output, and outputs the power to the power output unit at the end. The speed-changing transmission unit includes an input gear 3, a planetary gear 4, a crankshaft 11, a planetary gear with a small tooth difference 6, a pinion housing 5, and a planet carrier 7. Pinion pins are evenly installed in a circle in the pinion housing.
[0020] The input gear is coaxially fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor by a flat key connection. The planetary gear (three planetary gears) is meshed with the input gear, and the planetary gear is fixedly connected to one end of the corresponding crankshaft through a spline, and the other end of the crankshaft is rotatably matched with the corresponding axial hole off the center on the planetary carrier through a bearing. The two relatively eccentric parts on the crankshaft are respectively connected to a row of planetary gears with small tooth differences through bearings, and the two rows of planetary gears with small tooth differences are meshed with the pinion pins installed on the pinion housing. The central axis of the planetary carrier is connected to the pinion housing through a bearing and can rotate freely relative to it, so that the planetary carrier is driven to rotate by the crankshaft, and the end of the central axis of the planetary carrier away from the motor constitutes the power output end of the variable speed transmission unit.
[0021] The angle sensor is used to detect the output angle of the motor. It adopts a non-contact angle sensor, which includes a non-contact angle sensor rotor 2.1 with internal and external clearance fit and a non-contact angle sensor stator 2.2. The non-contact angle sensor rotor is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor by interference fit, and the non-contact angle sensor stator is fixedly connected to the pin gear housing. The advantages of using a non-contact angle sensor are: small friction torque and high transmission accuracy.
[0022] The power output unit includes an output shaft 8, which is connected to the pinion housing through a double-row angular contact ball bearing 9 and rotates freely relative to it. One end of the output shaft is coaxially fixedly connected to the power output end of the speed transmission unit to transmit power to the output shaft.
[0023] The output sealing device adopts a mechanical seal 10, and the mechanical seal includes a mechanical seal stator 10.3 and a mechanical seal rotor 10.1. The mechanical seal stator is fixedly installed on the pin gear housing, and the mechanical seal rotor is coaxially fixedly installed on the other end of the output shaft. A ceramic sealing ring 10.2 is fixed on the inner ring of the mechanical seal stator, and the inner ring surface of the ceramic sealing ring forms a compression sealing contact with the outer ring surface of the mechanical seal rotor. An output shaft extension hole is provided at the center of the front end of the mechanical seal stator for the output shaft to extend out, and a ceramic sealing gasket 10.4 is provided on the inner side of the front end of the mechanical seal stator and at the periphery of the output shaft extension hole, and the rear end face of the ceramic sealing gasket forms a compression sealing contact with the front end face of the mechanical seal rotor.
[0024] Due to the high hardness and wear resistance of ceramic materials, in deep sea environments, the use of this mechanical seal structure at the output end of the transmission device in contact with water not only ensures the transmission performance, but also ensures the sealing effect, and can obtain a longer service life.
[0025] The motor, angle sensor, speed transmission unit and power output unit are encapsulated in a box and isolated from water; the output sealing device is in contact with the water.
[0026] The working principle of the transmission device for large-load deep-sea steering gear of the utility model is:
[0027] After the motor is powered on, it generates rotational motion and transmits it to the planetary gear through the input gear. The planetary gear drives the small-tooth-difference planetary gear to move in a plane through the crankshaft. The small-tooth-difference planetary gear and the pinion housing perform small-tooth-difference meshing motion, and then drives the planetary carrier to rotate through the crankshaft, and finally outputs torque through the output shaft. During the rotation of the motor, the non-contact angle sensor rotor rotates freely relative to the non-contact angle sensor stator, and at the same time, a pulse signal is induced on the non-contact angle sensor stator to detect the rotation angle of the non-contact angle sensor rotor, realizing accurate measurement of the input end rotation angle.
[0028] The test data of the transmission device for deep-sea steering gear used in deep-sea environment is compared with the existing transmission device as shown in Table 1.
