Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of half - shaft drive housing assembly, and particularly relates to a half - shaft drive housing of a tractor rear axle. Background Technique
[0002] The half - shaft drive housing of a tractor rear axle, also known as the drive axle housing, is an important part of the tractor rear axle. The drive axle housing is the core structure of the tractor rear axle, playing the role of supporting and protecting key components such as the central transmission, differential, final drive, and half - shaft. It bears the overall weight of the tractor and transmits the road surface reaction force and reaction torque transmitted from the wheels. As one of the core components of the tractor, one of the main functions of the drive axle housing is to transmit loads, ensuring that the tractor can work stably and effectively under various working conditions. The drive axle housing is also the assembly matrix for components such as the main reducer, differential, and half - shaft, providing a stable installation platform for these components. In addition, according to different manufacturing processes, the drive axle housing can be divided into two types: stamping - welding bridge housing and casting (cast iron, cast steel) bridge housing. The traditional casting bridge housing has the advantages of high stiffness, small deformation, and low cost, but has a long manufacturing cycle, complex process, and low efficiency. The stamping - welding bridge housing has the advantages of good appearance, light weight, high cleanliness, and low failure rate, and has gradually become the mainstream technology in modern tractor manufacturing. Inside the half - shaft drive housing of a tractor rear axle, key components such as a differential are usually installed, and these components work together to ensure that the tractor can maintain good performance and stability under complex and changeable working conditions.
[0003] The half-axle drive housing of a tractor plays an important role in the tractor. The half-axle drive housing of the rear axle supports and protects key components in the tractor's transmission system, such as the central drive, differential, final drive, and half-axle. These components are crucial for the normal operation of the tractor, so the protective role of the housing cannot be ignored. When the tractor is working, it needs to withstand various complex and harsh road conditions. The half-axle drive housing of the rear axle can effectively transmit these loads, ensuring the stable operation of the tractor under various working conditions. The main reducer housing and the half-axle housing are connected by bolts and positioning pins. The installation position of the main reducer housing above the half-axle can be changed to adjust the ground clearance of the tractor and the axle distance between the left and right wheels. This enables the tractor to better adapt to different working environments and requirements. Self-tightening oil seals are installed on the half-axle drive housing of the rear axle. These oil seals can effectively prevent the lubricating oil in the main reducer from entering the half-axle housing, and at the same time prevent impurities such as mud and water from infiltrating, ensuring the normal operation of the transmission system. In some designs, the half-axle drive housing of the rear axle is matched with an independent suspension, and the half-axle section between the differential and the wheel is connected by a universal joint to meet the need for the independent up and down movement of the driving wheels. In summary, the half-axle drive housing of the tractor's rear axle not only plays a role in supporting and protecting key components in the tractor, but also ensures the stable operation and efficient operation of the tractor under various working conditions by transmitting loads, adjusting the ground clearance and axle distance, preventing oil leakage and the infiltration of mud and water, and connecting the independent suspension. The problems existing in the above technology are as follows: After assembling multiple components on the half-axle drive housing, it is necessary to seal the top of the housing with a cover plate. The cover plate and the top of the half-axle drive housing are assembled and connected through multiple connecting parts and fixing parts. Therefore, it is not convenient for users to assemble and connect the cover plate and the half-axle drive housing, and the maintenance convenience of multiple components in the inner cavity of the half-axle drive housing is reduced, so it is not convenient for users to use. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present utility model provides a tractor rear axle half-axle drive housing that can overcome or at least partially solve the above problems.
[0005] The present utility model is realized as follows: A tractor rear axle half-axle drive housing includes a half-axle drive housing, a cover plate, four connecting plates, and two fixing blocks.

By setting the positioning mechanism, the positioning rod can, through the mutual cooperation of the fixing block and the connecting plate, achieve the effect of quickly assembling and fixing the cover plate to the half - shaft drive housing, avoiding the situation where the cover plate cannot be quickly fixed after being butted with the half - shaft drive housing.
[0007] To improve the movement convenience of the positioning mechanism, preferably, the transmission mechanism includes a rotary motor, a turntable, and two rotating rods. The rotary motor is located inside the placement groove. The turntable is located at the output end behind the rotary motor and is fixedly connected to the output end of the rotary motor. The two rotating rods are respectively located on the left and right sides of the turntable and are fixedly connected to the surface of the turntable. The protruding end at the rear of the rotating rod contacts the inner wall of the traction rod. By setting the transmission mechanism, the rotary motor can, through the mutual cooperation of the turntable and the rotating rods, achieve the effect of quickly driving the positioning rod to move its position through the traction rod, avoiding the situation where the cover plate cannot be quickly disengaged from the fixed state when it is necessary to remove the cover plate to maintain the components inside the half - shaft drive housing.
[0008] To improve the movement stability of the transmission mechanism, preferably, the rear side of the turntable is movably connected to a support plate through a rotating shaft. The top of the support plate is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the placement groove. By setting the support plate, the support plate can, through the connection point with the rotating shaft of the turntable, achieve the effect of assisting the turntable and the traction rod to rotate stably, avoiding the situation of instability during the use of the turntable and the traction rod.
[0009] To improve the movement stability of the positioning mechanism, preferably, moving rods are fixedly connected to both the top and bottom of the traction rod. A limiting rod is movably connected to the inner cavity of the moving rod. The side of the limiting rod close to the inner wall of the placement groove is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the placement groove. By setting the moving rod and the limiting rod, the limiting rod can, through the mutual cooperation with the moving rod, achieve the effect of limiting the traction rod and the positioning rod, avoiding the problem of deviation when the traction rod and the positioning rod move.
[0010] In order to improve the docking effect of the positioning rod, preferably, connection holes are provided on both the left and right sides of the fixed block, positioning grooves are provided at the relative ends of the two connecting plates, and the relative ends of the two positioning rods pass through the connection holes and extend into the inner cavity of the positioning grooves.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0013] In the present utility model, by providing a half-axis drive housing, a cover plate, a connecting plate, a fixed block, a placement groove, a positioning mechanism, and a transmission mechanism, when the rotating motor is started, the rotating motor will drive the turntable to rotate through its output end. During the rotation of the turntable, the two side rotating rods will be driven to rotate. During the rotation of the rotating rods, they will contact the inner wall of the traction rod and drive the traction rod to move. During the movement of the traction rod, the tension spring will be stretched and the positioning rod will be driven to move. After the positioning rod moves out of the inner cavity of the positioning groove, the cover plate can be removed to repair and maintain the components inside the half-axis drive housing. After the repair and maintenance are completed, the cover plate is docked with the top of the half-axis drive housing again. During the docking process, the two connecting plates need to be fitted to the surface of the fixed block. After the docking is completed, when the rotating motor is turned off, the turntable and the rotating rods will lose the rotation torque. After the turntable and the rotating rods lose the rotation torque, the tension of the tension spring will contract, and it will quickly drive the positioning rod to insert into the inner cavity of the positioning groove through the traction rod. After the positioning rod inserts into the inner cavity of the positioning groove, through the mutual cooperation of the fixed block and the connecting plate, the effect of quickly assembling and fixing the cover plate to the half-axis drive housing can be achieved.
