Abstract

[0047] To obtain a compact layout while improving the stability of the transmission, refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, one embodiment of this application discloses a valve actuator, including:
[0048] A motor 100, including a housing 110 and a rotating shaft 120 rotatably installed in the housing 110. The interior of the housing 110 is a housing cavity, and the rotating shaft 120 is installed in the housing cavity and is rotationally fitted relative to the housing 110;
[0049] A cover body 200, buckled on the housing 110 and enclosing a transmission cavity 210 with the housing 110;
[0050] A transmission member 300, located in the transmission cavity 210. The transmission member 300 includes a support portion 310 and an internal gear ring 320 fixed to the support portion 310. The internal gear ring 320 meshes and transmits with the rotating shaft 120;
[0051] An output shaft 400; one end is fixed to the support portion 310. The output shaft 400 and the support portion 310 are of an integral structure or are fixedly connected separately. The other end of the output shaft 400 extends out of the transmission cavity 210 and is used to connect a controlled component in the valve.
[0052] In this embodiment, as far as the motor 100 itself is concerned, it can be combined with the existing technology, for example, magnets or windings that match each other are set in the housing 110 and on the rotating shaft 120, and power output is achieved through the rotating shaft 120, while the transmission member 300 transmits power between the rotating shaft 120 and the output shaft 400. Compared with the external gear transmission structure, the inner gear ring 320 of this embodiment can arrange more transmission teeth for meshing under the same space occupation, thereby increasing the setting range of the transmission ratio; the rotating shaft 120 can also be set inside the inner gear ring 320 to further optimize the overall size of the transmission structure. Overall, the transmission member 300 can simplify the transmission relationship, save internal space and provide a compact layout while meeting the design requirements; at the same time, it avoids the problems of unstable transmission process, inaccurate control process, slow dynamic response, etc. caused by multi-stage transmission, improves the stability of the transmission, and improves the working effect.
[0053] For details about the configuration of the transmission member 300, see Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the transmission member 300 is rotatably mounted in the transmission chamber. The support portion 310 includes a sleeve 311 and a radiation portion 312, wherein the output shaft 400 passes through the sleeve 311 along the axial direction of the valve actuator and is fixed to the sleeve 311, and the radiation portion 312 extends radially outward from the sleeve 311 to connect to the axial end of the inner gear ring 320. The sleeve 311 is cylindrical. In other embodiments, the support portion 310 may also be provided with no sleeve, for example, the support portion 310 includes a radiation portion 312 fixed to the outer periphery of the output shaft 400, and the radiation portion 312 extends radially outward to connect to the axial end of the inner gear ring 320.
[0054] The radiation portion 312 can be partially hollowed out, or the end of the inner gear ring 320 in the axial direction can be closed. The inner gear ring 320 includes an annular body and a transmission tooth 321 arranged on the annular body. The annular body is open at both ends in the axial direction and one of the ends is connected to the support portion 310. The support portion 310 and the annular body form a cylinder with one end closed. The transmission tooth 321 of the inner gear ring 320 is arranged on the inner side wall of the annular body. In the circumferential direction of the inner gear ring 320, the tooth tip portions of the transmission tooth 321 are arranged at intervals along the inner side wall of the annular body, and the tooth root portions of the transmission tooth 321 are adjacent to or abut against each other along the inner side wall of the annular body. In the axial direction of the inner gear ring 320, the inner gear ring 320 has a certain thickness to ensure the meshing size between the transmission tooth 321 and the rotating shaft 120 to meet the transmission torque requirements. Further, in the axial direction of the inner gear ring 320, both ends of the transmission tooth 321 extend to the side edge of the annular body. In order to control the overall size, the radiation portion 312 is substantially plate-shaped and the thickness of the inner gear ring 320 is greater than or equal to the thickness of the radiation portion 312 to achieve a balance between structural strength and overall size.
[0055] A drive gear 130 is fixed at the end of a transmission cavity 210 where a rotating shaft 120 is located. The drive gear 130 meshes with transmission teeth 321 of an internal gear ring 320. The drive gear 130 in the meshing state is located inside a cylinder body formed by a support portion 310 and an annular body, that is, in the axial direction of the internal gear ring 320, the thickness of the annular body of the internal gear ring 320 is greater than or equal to the thickness of the drive gear 130, so as to prevent the drive gear 130 from being exposed outside the internal gear ring 320 in the meshing state. The above arrangement can improve the meshing strength and achieve a compact layout. Further, referring to Figure 3 , a gap is provided between the drive gear 130 and a radiation portion 312. The drive gear 130 directly meshes with the transmission teeth 321 of the internal gear ring 320, that is, a single-stage transmission is adopted between the rotating shaft 120 and an output shaft 400.
[0056] The transmission member 300 can maintain a mating relationship with the housing 110 and the cover body 200 by itself, or the transmission member 300 maintains a mating relationship with the housing 110 and the cover body 200 through the output shaft 400. In one embodiment, a first mounting hole 111 is provided on the housing 110, a second mounting hole 201 is provided on the cover body 200, one end of the output shaft 400 is fitted in the first mounting hole 111, and the other end penetrates through the second mounting hole 201. The first mounting hole 111 and the second mounting hole 201 position the axial position of the output shaft 400. The first mounting hole 111 is a through hole or a blind hole. Correspondingly, the output shaft 400 penetrates or does not penetrate the first mounting hole 111. The output shaft 400 and the transmission member 300 can be of an integral structure and obtained by an integral molding process, or can be obtained by separate molding and then assembled. Both ends of the output shaft 400 are respectively fitted with a friction reducing member 410 in the first mounting hole 111 or the second mounting hole 201. The friction reducing member 410 is sleeved on the output shaft 400. In the figure, the friction reducing member 410 is an oil-free bearing. In addition to reducing the mating resistance between the output shaft 400, the housing 110 and the cover body 200, the friction reducing member 410 can also be used to limit the axial position of the output shaft 400. The output shaft 400 is provided with a step portion 401 that cooperates with the friction reducing member 410. The end of the friction reducing member 410 facing the step portion 401 turns outwards to form a limiting side edge 411. The step portion 401 abuts against the side edge of the first mounting hole 111 or the second mounting hole 201 through the limiting side edge 411 to achieve the axial limit of the output shaft 400. The multi-functional design of the friction reducing member 410 can further reduce the number of components and improve the integration degree. Further, a shim washer 420 can be provided between the step portion 401 and the friction reducing member 410 to reduce the tolerance requirement and improve the mating accuracy. The shim washer 420 can also be made of a self-lubricating material to reduce the mating resistance.
[0057] Regarding the cooperation between the transmission member 300 and the rotating shaft 120, in one embodiment, the internal gear ring 320 is coaxially arranged with the output shaft 400, and the output shaft 400 is eccentrically arranged relative to the rotating shaft 120, achieving a compact layout while ensuring the transmission ratio. In other embodiments, the output shaft 400 can also be aligned with the rotating shaft 120. Further, the transmission ratio between the driving gear 130 and the internal gear ring 320 is 1:4 to 1:10 to adapt to the output torque capacity of the motor 100 and the driving torque requirement of the output shaft 400 under the single-stage transmission setting. Combining Figure 3 , the rotating shaft 120 and the output shaft 400 are arranged in the same direction, and the ratio range between the length L1 of the valve actuator in the axial direction of the rotating shaft 120 and the length L2 in the radial direction of the rotating shaft 120 is 0.7 to 1.3. Thanks to the optimization of the transmission structure, the valve actuator in this embodiment can achieve regular and compact external structural dimensions.
[0058] In one embodiment, the motor 100 further includes a substrate 140 for driving the motor 100 and a plug-in member 150 electrically connected to the substrate 140. The substrate 140 is provided with wires and / or control circuits to realize the driving of the motor 100. The wires and / or control circuits are connected to the windings of the electrodes to transmit energy. In the figure, the substrate 140 is arranged in the transmission cavity 210, and the substrate 140 is provided with a first avoidance hole 141 for avoiding the rotating shaft 120 and a second avoidance hole 142 for avoiding the output shaft 400. The first avoidance hole 141 and the second avoidance hole 142 can be independently arranged or integrally connected. The size of the substrate 140 is adapted to the size of the transmission cavity 210 to provide a more compact layout. The substrate 140 is mounted on the housing 110 through a plurality of fasteners. The housing 110 has an offset portion 160 relative to the rotating shaft 120, and the plug-in member 150 is embedded in the offset portion 160. The plug-in member 150 and the substrate 140 are respectively located on both sides of the housing 110. The plug-in member 150 penetrates through the offset portion 160 and is connected to the substrate 140. The plug-in member 150 can be offset relative to the main body of the motor 100 to facilitate the connection of external circuits.
[0059] The cover body 200 and the housing 110 are hermetically fitted, that is, the transmission cavity 210 is hermetically arranged. The side edges of the cover body 200 and the housing 110 are hermetically buckled with each other through a first sealing member 501. The output shaft 400 is provided with a second sealing member 502 for cooperating with the cover body 200. The second sealing member 502 is sleeved on the output shaft 400. The output shaft 400 is provided with a reduced-diameter portion 402 to facilitate the cooperation with the second sealing member 502. The outer peripheral surface of the reduced-diameter portion 402 is smoothly arranged to avoid damaging the second sealing member 502 during the assembly process.
[0060] In terms of specific materials, the driving gear 130 can be made of powder metallurgy to ensure strength and hardness. The driving gear 130 can be fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 120 by means of welding, bonding, etc., to ensure that all the power of the motor 100 can be output to the transmission member 300 via the rotating shaft 120. The transmission member 300 is formed by split molding. Among them, the output shaft 400 is made of powder metallurgy to ensure that the output end for cooperating with the controlled component meets the strength requirements; the transmission member 300 is made of a polymer material to improve the wear resistance of the gear and increase the service life. The polymer material of the transmission member 300 needs to meet the requirements of wear resistance, stability and certain strength, such as polyamide, polycarbonate, polyoxymethylene, modified polyphenylene ether and thermoplastic polyester, etc. Inorganic materials can also be used for further reinforcement, such as glass fiber or carbon fiber. The components made of polymer materials can be injection molded, and the performance of the components can be improved by the multi-gating process during the molding process. Among them, the output shaft 400 and the transmission member 300 need to be closely matched to ensure stable power output.
[0061] Based on the above, in one embodiment of the present application, an exhaust gas recirculation valve is also disclosed, which includes a valve body, a valve core movably arranged in the valve body, and the valve actuator in the present application. The valve core serves as a controlled component and is linked to the output shaft 400 of the valve actuator. For the valve actuator, refer to the above description.

For the exhaust gas recirculation valve, refer to the above description. Other parts of the power unit can be implemented in combination with the prior art and will not be elaborated here.
[0063] While ensuring the output torque, the valve actuator in the present application can greatly reduce the volume of the actuator, so as to be more widely adapted to more scenarios. It has a series of beneficial effects such as a large design space (for example, more motor models can be selected), fewer parts, simple structure, stable transmission, light weight, convenient assembly, high yield rate, and good economy.
[0064] The technical features of the above-described embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of concise description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as the combinations of these technical features do not conflict, they should all be considered as the scope described in this specification.
