It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present utility model and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0027] Some embodiments of the present utility model will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, Embodiment 1

[0028] Combined with Figure 1-6 As shown, this embodiment provides a multi-stage gear speed reducer, including: a main body module 100 and a functional module 200.

[0029] Among them, the main body module 100 includes a main body 110 of the speed reducer and a motor 120 installed on and extending into the main body 110 of the speed reducer. The main body 110 of the speed reducer is used to reduce the power input by the motor 120 to provide a greater torque output, and the motor 120 is used to input power to the main body 110 of the speed reducer.

[0030] The functional module 200 is used to filter and cool the lubricating oil in the reducer main body 110, and includes a housing 210 fixed on one side of the reducer main body 110, a pump 220 installed on the reducer main body 110, a support 230 fixed on the inner wall of the housing 210, a threaded seat 240 installed on the housing 210 through threaded connection and extending into the housing 210, a filter element 250 fitted between the support 230 and the threaded seat 240, partitions 260 symmetrically fixed on the inner wall of the housing 210, heat pipes 270 fixed in an array between the opposite partitions 260, a water inlet pipe 280 installed at the top of the housing 210 and communicating with the inner cavity of the housing 210, and a water outlet pipe 290 installed at the bottom of the housing 210 and communicating with the inner cavity of the housing 210.

[0031] The housing 210 is rectangular and fixed on one side of the reducer main body 110. An oil suction pipe 221 is provided at the inlet of the pump 220. One end of the oil suction pipe 221 is communicated with the inlet of the pump 220, and the other end is communicated with the inner cavity of the reducer main body 110, which is convenient for pumping out the lubricating oil in the inner cavity of the reducer main body 110. A connecting pipe 222 is provided at the outlet of the pump 220. One end of the connecting pipe 222 is communicated with the outlet of the pump 220, and the other end is communicated with the support 230, which is convenient for sending the pumped lubricating oil into the filter element 250.

[0032] An upper ring groove is formed on the support 230, and a lower ring groove is formed on the threaded seat 240. The top end of the filter element 250 is fitted in the upper ring groove, and the bottom end is fitted in the lower ring groove, which ensures the stability of the filter element 250. At the same time, the threaded seat 240 is threadedly connected with the housing 210, which is convenient for the installation and disassembly of the threaded seat 240, that is, convenient for the cleaning and replacement of the filter element 250.

[0033] The filter element 250 is used to filter metal particle impurities in the lubricating oil, and includes a metal filter screen 251 and a fiber filter screen 252 arranged outside the metal filter screen 251. The metal filter screen 251 is used to filter larger metal particles, and the fiber filter screen 252 is used to filter smaller particle impurities, ensuring the sufficiency of filtration.

[0034] The partitions 260 are symmetrically arranged. The cavity between the opposite partitions 260 and the inner wall of the housing 210 is a heat dissipation cavity. Both the water inlet pipe 280 and the water outlet pipe 290 are communicated with the heat dissipation cavity, which is convenient for sending cooling water into the heat dissipation cavity and discharging the cooling water after absorbing heat.

[0035] The heat pipes 270 are fixed on the partitions 260 and extend out of the partitions 260 at both ends for the lubricating oil to pass through. They are made of heat-conducting materials, so that when the lubricating oil passes through, heat exchange can be carried out between the lubricating oil and the cooling water through the heat pipes 270, thereby cooling the lubricating oil and preventing the lubricating oil temperature from being too high.

[0036] Further, a plurality of baffles 271 are arranged in an array on the inner wall of the heat pipe 270. The adjacent baffles 271 are centrosymmetric, forming an S-shaped flow channel in the heat pipe 270, so that the lubricating oil stays in the heat pipe 270 for a longer time, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency, that is, improving the cooling effect on the lubricating oil.

[0037] A return pipe 211 is arranged on one side of the housing 210 and communicated with the inner cavity of the reducer main body 110, which is convenient for sending the filtered and cooled lubricating oil back to the inner cavity of the reducer main body 110.

[0038] A temperature sensor 212 extending into the housing 210 is installed on one side of the housing 210 for real-time monitoring of the temperature of the cooled lubricating oil. An alarm lamp 213 is installed at the top of the housing 210. When the temperature of the cooled lubricating oil is still at a relatively high temperature, the alarm lamp 213 is activated to alarm the user and remind the user to stop the machine for inspection.

[0039] The working principle and usage process of the present utility model are as follows: When the reducer main body 110 is running, the pump 220 is started to pump out the lubricating oil in the reducer main body 110 through the oil extraction pipe 221 and send it into the filter element 250 through the connection pipe 222. The lubricating oil enters the filter element 250, and the metal particles and impurities in the lubricating oil are filtered by the metal filter screen 251 and the fiber filter screen 252 to ensure the cleanliness of the lubricating oil. The filtered lubricating oil enters the heat pipe 270. At this time, the cooling water is sent through the water inlet pipe 280. The lubricating oil flows in the heat pipe 270 and exchanges heat with the cooling water through the heat pipe 270, thereby cooling the lubricating oil. The cooled lubricating oil is sent back into the reducer main body 110 through the return pipe 211 to form a cycle. In addition, the temperature sensor 212 monitors the temperature of the cooled lubricating oil. When the temperature of the cooled lubricating oil is still at a relatively high temperature, the alarm lamp 213 is started to alarm the user and remind the user to stop the machine to cool the lubricating oil of the reducer main body 110.

[0040] Although the embodiments of the present utility model have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and purposes of the present utility model. The scope of the present utility model is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
