Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicle reducers, and in particular relates to an oil circuit of a lubrication system of a unmanned aerial vehicle reducer. Background Art
[0002] Most of the existing lubrication systems of UAV reducers are splash lubrication systems. The lubricating oil pool inside the reducer is concentrated at the bottom. When the gears immersed in the oil pool rotate, the lubricating oil is stirred up and thrown out, causing the oil to splash around. The splashed oil enters the gears, bearings and other parts of each level for lubrication. The propeller end above the UAV reducer is far away from the oil surface, so the lubrication effect is relatively poor, which may cause the risk of reliability or performance failure of parts such as bearings and oil seals at the propeller end. To reduce this risk, more lubricating oil needs to be added, but it will increase the gear oil stirring loss and reduce the transmission efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model further provides an oil circuit of a lubrication system of a UAV reducer with stable lubrication effect, simple and compact structure and small amount of lubricating oil consumption.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0009] The utility model designs a lubrication system based on the existing UAV reducer structure, adds an oil guide groove structure at the shell end, can collect oil, and lubricate parts such as bearings and oil seals through the oil channel, with stable lubrication effect. The lubrication system of the utility model has a compact structure and does not affect the external three-dimensional dimensions of the reducer. The lubrication system can collect and guide oil to lubricate bearings and oil seals at various tilt angles of the UAV, ensuring the stable effect of various system parts in the reducer, while reducing the amount of transmission lubricating oil, reducing transmission efficiency loss, and reducing engine fuel consumption.
