The two wedge-shaped track grooves 11 in any pair of wedge-shaped track grooves 11 are arranged at opposite intervals along the circumferential direction of the driving gear disc 1.

Among them, the driving gear disc 1 is provided with an assembly groove for installing the reset elastic member 4, and the assembly groove is communicated with the wedge-shaped track groove 11.

[0042] During the specific operation process, when the driving gear disk 1 rotates relative to the driven gear shaft 2 in the first direction under the action of an external force, the wedge-shaped track groove 11 and the engaging groove 21 can approach and combine into an engaging cavity. The roller 3 can overcome the elastic force of the reset elastic member 4 under the pressing action of the end cover 5 and the elastic pressing cover, and slide towards the second end of the wedge-shaped track groove 11 to be engaged and clamped in the engaging cavity. The roller 3 is in contact with the inferior arc working surface, so that the driving gear disk 1 and the driven gear shaft 2 are in a driving connection state; when the driving gear disk 1 rotates relative to the driven gear shaft 2 in the second direction under the action of an external force, the roller 3 can slide towards the first end of the wedge-shaped track groove 11 under the pressing action of the end cover 5 and the elastic pressing cover and the elastic force of the reset elastic member 4 to disengage from the engaging and clamping of the engaging cavity, and the roller 3 is disengaged from the inferior arc working surface, so that the driving gear disk 1 and the driven gear shaft 2 are in a decoupled rotation state; the driving gear disk 1 and the driven gear shaft 2 are adapted to be bidirectionally clutched and switched between the driving connection state and the decoupled rotation state. In this embodiment, the first direction and the second direction are set to be opposite to each other, and both the first direction and the second direction are set to be the rotation direction around the cylindrical shaft body.

[0043] At least one pair of wedge-shaped track grooves 11 are arranged on the driving gear disk 1. As an exemplary implementation manner, two wedge-shaped track grooves 11 are provided, and the two wedge-shaped track grooves 11 are set as a pair; the two wedge-shaped track grooves 11 are spaced apart from each other on the driving gear disk 1, and any one of the wedge-shaped track grooves 11 is correspondingly provided with a roller 3 and a reset elastic member 4. Figure 1 For example, the two rollers 3 are arranged at intervals up and down, and the upper roller 3 and the lower roller are respectively slidably arranged in the two wedge-shaped track grooves 11.

[0044] In a specific implementation manner, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 9 and Figure 10 and

[0045] During the specific operation process, the end portions of the two rollers 3 along the length direction are respectively contacted and pressed by the end cover 5 and the elastic pressing cover. When the driving gear disk 1 rotates relative to the driven gear shaft 2, taking clockwise rotation as an example, Figure 1For example, the upper roller 3 is directly pushed by the active toothed disc 1, and the upper roller 3 and the end cover 5 and the elastic crimping cover are slidably arranged, and the reset elastic member 4 connected to the upper roller 3 does not deform; the lower roller 3 is not pushed by the active toothed disc 1, and the lower roller 3 overcomes the elastic force of the reset elastic member 4 under the crimping and friction of the end cover 5 and the elastic crimping cover, and is displaced, and the reset elastic member 4 is compressed and deformed, and the lower roller 3 enters the wedging groove 21 under the action of the inner wall contour of the protrusion 12, so that the lower roller 3 can be wedged and clamped in the wedge The track groove 11 and the wedging groove 21 are close to each other in the combined wedging cavity, thereby realizing the wedging of the active gear plate 1 and the passive gear shaft 2; when the lower roller 3 needs to exit the wedging, the active gear plate 1 is gently pushed to rotate counterclockwise relative to the passive gear shaft 2, and the wedge-shaped track groove 11 and the wedging groove 21 are offset away from each other, so that the wedging cavity is separated, and the lower roller 3 moves from the second end of the wedge-shaped track groove 11 toward the first end under the action of the reset elastic member 4, so that the exited lower roller 3 can exit the wedging, thereby realizing the decoupling of the active gear plate 1 and the passive gear shaft 2.

[0046] In this embodiment, see Figure 3 At least one pair of wedge-shaped track grooves 11 is provided, and the two wedge-shaped track grooves 11 in any pair of wedge-shaped track grooves 11 are arranged at opposite intervals along the circumferential direction of the active gear plate 1; and rollers 3 and reset elastic members 4 are correspondingly arranged in any wedge-shaped track groove 11. This arrangement is conducive to the positive and negative rotation of the active gear plate 1 and the passive gear shaft 2, so as to quickly switch the clutch, and the purpose of wedging the active gear plate 1 and the passive gear shaft 2 for transmission connection or separation and decoupling is improved, thereby improving the convenience of the clutch operation.

[0047] In other embodiments, two or more pairs of wedge-shaped track grooves 11 are arranged on the driving gear disc 1, and the number of the wedge-shaped track grooves 11 arranged in pairs is designed and configured according to actual needs.

[0048] As a preferred embodiment, see Figure 3 and Figure 10 The active gear plate 1 is provided with a protrusion 12, which is protrudingly arranged on the inner wall surface of the second end of the wedge-shaped track groove 11, and the protrusion 12 extends toward the cylindrical hole. The protrusion 12 is located at the end position of the second end of the wedge-shaped track groove 11. The protrusion 12 can be used to cooperate with the wedge-shaped track groove 11 to form a wedging cavity for clamping the roller 3. Of course, the protrusion 12 is also conducive to the roller 3 sliding at the second end of the wedge-shaped track groove 11. Enter the wedging groove 21 on the passive gear shaft 2, so that the clutch quickly switches to the wedging clamping of the roller 3. The protrusion 12 can be arranged between the assembly groove and the second end of the wedge-shaped track groove 11.

[0049] As a preferred embodiment, see Figure 5 and Figure 9, the wedging groove 21 is provided with a minor circular arc working surface, and the radius r' of the minor circular arc working surface is greater than or equal to the radius r of the roller 3. Such a setting is conducive to the wedging groove 21 being able to fit and connect with the roller 3, so that the driving gear disc 1 and the driven gear shaft 2 are stably wedged when the roller 3 is in the clamping position.

[0050] In this embodiment, refer to Figures 2 to 6 , the end cover 5 and the elastic pressing cover are assembled with a clearance on the cylindrical shaft body. The end cover 5 and the elastic pressing cover are respectively arranged on both sides of the driving gear disc 1. The two ends of the roller 3 are limited by the elastic pressing cover and the end cover 5. The height value H of the two end faces of the roller 3 is greater than the thickness h value of the driving gear disc 1, so as to form a clearance fit between the end cover 5 and the driving gear disc 1. When the driving gear disc 1 rotates, the end cover 5 and the driving gear disc 1 do not come into contact, which is beneficial to improving the transmission efficiency and making the clutch switching operation smooth.

[0051] In a specific implementation manner, the roller 3 is set as a cylindrical structure.

[0052] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 5 , both ends of the reset elastic member 4 respectively abut against the end side wall of the wedge-shaped track groove 11 of the driving gear disc 1 and the columnar surface of the roller 3. The reset elastic member 4 is adapted to apply a radial pre-pressing thrust to the roller 3, so as to keep the roller 3 away from the second end of the wedge-shaped track groove 11 and avoid the tendency state of entering the wedging and clamping position.

[0053] As a preferred implementation manner, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the elastic pressing cover includes a compression spring gasket 6 and a compression spring member 8 sleeved on the cylindrical shaft body. There are two end covers 5, and the two end covers 5 are arranged on both sides of the driving gear disc 1 in the axial direction; the two ends of the roller 3 are abutted and arranged between the two end covers 5, and the compression spring member 8 is installed between the end cover 5 adjacent to the driven gear shaft 2 and the compression spring gasket 6. Among them, the compression spring member 8 can be either a helical wire compression spring or a disc-shaped or ring-shaped thin sheet spring. It is sleeved on the cylindrical shaft body, and the compression spring member 8 is pressed between the two compression spring gaskets 6. Through the pre-pressure generated by the compression spring acting on the roller 3, when the clutch is switched to the transmission connection state, the frictional force of the roller 3 on the contact surface of the end cover 5 can overcome the elastic force of the reset elastic member 4 on the roller 3, so that the driving gear disc 1 and the driven gear shaft 2 can be wedged by clamping through the roller 3.

[0054] As a preferred implementation manner, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 8, the roller-type gear clutch further includes an axial retaining ring 7. The axial retaining ring 7 is abutted against the side of the end cover 5 away from the elastic crimping cover. An axial retaining ring groove is provided on the cylindrical shaft body, and the axial retaining ring 7 is snap-fitted in the axial retaining ring groove. The axial retaining ring 7 plays a role in axially limiting the end cover 5, the driving gear disk 1, and the elastic crimping cover.

[0055] As a preferred embodiment, refer to Figure 3 , the inner wall surface from the first end to the second end of the wedge-shaped track groove 11 is set as a straight surface wedge or an arc surface wedge; in the radial cross-section of the driving gear disk 1, the acute angle β formed between the normal perpendicular line at any point on the inner wall surface between the first end and the second end and the connection line from this point to the cylindrical hole is greater than the friction dead angle value at the wedge-shaped track groove 11. With this setting, the roller 3 can be driven by the wedge-shaped track groove 11 of the driving gear disk 1 and smoothly slide on the cylindrical shaft body without wedging, so as to smoothly enter the wedging cavity formed by the combination of the wedge-shaped track groove 11 and the wedge-shaped groove, and limit and wedge the driving gear disk 1 and the driven gear shaft 2. The friction dead angle value is related to the friction coefficients of the two mutually friction materials. For example, both the driving gear disk 1 and the roller 3 are made of steel, and the friction coefficient between them is 0.1. The friction dead angle value converted by the inverse trigonometric function is about 5°.

[0056] For the roller-type gear clutch provided by the present invention, by applying a force to operate the driving gear disk 1 to rotate relative to the driven gear shaft 2, the wedge-shaped track groove 11 and the wedging groove 21 can be brought closer to form a wedging cavity. The roller 3 can overcome the elastic force of the reset elastic member 4 under the crimping action of the end cover 5 and the elastic crimping cover, and slide towards the second end of the wedge-shaped track groove 11 to be wedge-connected and clamped in the wedging cavity, so that the driving gear disk 1 and the driven gear shaft 2 are in a transmission connection state; or the roller 3 can slide towards the first end of the wedge-shaped track groove 11 to disengage from the wedge connection of the wedging cavity, so that the driving gear disk 1 and the driven gear shaft 2 are in a decoupled rotation state; the driving gear disk 1 and the driven gear shaft 2 are switched between the transmission connection state and the decoupled rotation state. The roller-type gear clutch provided by the present invention has a simple overall structure, low cost, can perform bidirectional rotation operation for clutch, has convenient clutch switching, good transmission efficiency and reliability, and excellent actual clutch unlocking performance.

[0057] The roller-type gear clutch provided by the present invention can realize the free clutch switching of the forward and reverse rotation directions between the driving gear disk 1 and the driven gear shaft 2. After the driving gear disk 1 stops rotating, by applying a simple slight reverse rotation to the driving gear disk 1 or a forward push to the driven gear shaft 2, the roller 3 can be disengaged from the wedge connection, and then the driven gear shaft 2 can be released from the driving gear disk 1, so that the torque output transmission end mechanism can be released from the driving transmission chain end, and thus the driven gear shaft 2, that is, the torque output transmission end mechanism, can be freely manually operated.

[0058] The roller-type gear clutch provided by the present utility model is applicable to a two-way gear clutch for manual and automatic operation, and can fully meet the requirements of actual use conditions of mechanism devices or equipment, including automatic clutch, automatic and manual free switching, etc. When it is necessary to transmit large torque or ultra-large torque, it is possible to select to arrange multiple pairs or more pairs of wedge-shaped track grooves 11, rollers 3 and reset elastic members 4 that are radially opposite to each other on the driving gear disc 1 to withstand greater wedging pressure and transmit greater torque.

[0059] Obviously, the above-mentioned embodiments are only examples for clear illustration and not limitations on the implementation manners. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all the implementation manners here. And the obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of the creation of the present utility model.
