Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of screw jacks, in particular to a lubrication structure for a short-stroke screw jack. Background Art

[0002] In a traditional screw-driven elevator, a worm gear and worm pair drives a first screw nut pair. The drive source drives the worm to rotate, and after being decelerated by the worm gear and worm pair, the worm gear rotates. There is a trapezoidal thread on the inner ring of the worm gear. The trapezoidal thread on the inner ring of the worm gear cooperates with the trapezoidal screw. Without rotating with the worm gear, the screw moves up or down (reverse rotation) in a straight line, achieving the effect of converting rotational motion into linear motion. The traditional lubrication method for the screw nut pair is to apply grease on the screw. When the screw moves up and down, the grease is brought into the inner ring of the worm gear to lubricate the screw nut pair. However, since the exposed position of the screw is far from the position of the inner thread of the worm gear, only after the screw moves a certain distance can the grease reach the position of the inner thread of the worm gear. Especially in a short-stroke screw jack, the moving distance of the screw is relatively short, and the grease applied on the screw cannot reach the position of the inner thread of the worm gear, failing to play a lubricating role, resulting in the wear of the screw nut pair and seriously affecting the service life of the screw jack.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0023] Embodiment:

[0024] Please refer to Figures 1-7 , a lubrication structure for a short-stroke lead screw elevator, including a transmission assembly and a conveying structure.

[0025] The transmission assembly includes a box body 1, a worm gear 2, a lead screw 3 and a worm 9. The box body 1 is rotatably connected with a worm gear 2 and a worm 9. The worm gear 2 and the worm 9 are meshed, and the worm gear 2 and the lead screw 3 are in transmission connection. The rotation of the worm gear 2 can drive the lead screw 3 to move.

[0026] The conveying structure includes an automatic grease injector 4, a tee joint 5, an oil guiding pipe 6, an oil port 7, an oil guiding hole 8 and an oil port 11. A number of oil guiding holes 8 are provided on the worm gear 2. Preferably, the oil guiding holes 8 are arranged in different directions around the worm gear 2, i.e., front, rear, left and right. The connection between the oil guiding hole 8 and the lead screw 3 is communicated. A number of oil ports 7 and a number of oil ports 11 are provided on the box body 1. The oil port 7 is arranged opposite to the worm gear 2, and the oil port 11 is arranged opposite to the lead screw 3. The tee joint 5 is connected to the oil port 11 of the box body 1 through the oil guiding pipe 6, and the tee joint 5 is connected to the oil port 7 of the box body 1. The automatic grease injector 4 is connected to the tee joint 5. The tee joint 5, the box body 1 and the oil guiding pipe 6 are preferably connected through a pipe joint. The worm gear 2 and the lead screw 3 are preferably connected by a thread. The lead screw 3 is preferably a trapezoidal thread. The tee joint 5 is preferably an F-type tee grease joint. The automatic grease injector 4 is a common grease injection device with the function of transmitting grease. The worm 9 in the transmission assembly drives the worm gear 2 to rotate. The worm gear 2 and the lead screw 3 cooperate to effectively drive the lead screw 3 to lift and lower, and adjust the lead screw 3 to a suitable height position. By storing the lubricating grease in the automatic grease injector 4 and through the setting of the tee joint 5, the grease is transmitted to the oil port 11 through the oil guiding pipe 6 and then to the inside of the support box 13 through the oil port 7, so that the grease is distributed to the rotating parts of the worm gear 2 and the lead screw 3, achieving the effect of simultaneous lubrication in multiple places. And through the same automatic grease injector 4 for lubrication, two areas are lubricated. The automatic grease injector 4, the tee joint 5 and the oil guiding pipe 6 are added on the basis of the original elevator, and the oil guiding holes 8 are added on the worm gear 2, improving the lubrication effect of the screw-nut pair of the short-stroke screw elevator.

[0027] Refer to Figure 5 and 7 , the worm gear 2 includes an oil storage tank 12. The oil storage tank 12 is arranged inside the worm gear 2. Through the setting of the oil storage tank 12, the conveying effect of the lubricating fluid is improved, the storage amount of the lubricating fluid staying inside the worm gear 2 is increased, and it is more conducive to lubrication.

[0028] Refer to Figure 5 , the box body 1 includes an end cover 10 and a support box 13. A cavity is arranged inside the support box 13. The worm gear 2 is located inside the support box 13. The support box 13 is connected to the end cover 10. The end cover 10 is provided with a limiting hole corresponding to the lead screw 3. The lead screw 3 passes through the limiting hole of the end cover 10. The oil port 11 is located on the end cover 10, and the oil port 7 is located on the support box 13. The oil port 11 is communicated with the limiting hole of the end cover 10, and the oil port 7 is communicated with the internal cavity of the support box 13. The worm gear 2 and the inside of the support box 13 are preferably rotatably connected through a bearing. The end cover 10 and the support box 13 are preferably connected by screws. Through the connection between the end cover 10 and the support box 13 in the box body 1, it is convenient to install the worm gear 2 and the worm 9. And since the oil port 11 is located on the end cover 10, the transmitted lubricating fluid can be transmitted to the lead screw 3 through the oil port 11. The end cover 10 is lighter in weight, which is convenient for machining the oil port 11.

[0029] In use, the automatic lubricator 4 sets the lubrication time according to the working time of the equipment. The automatic lubricator 4 supplies grease to the lead screw 3 and the inside of the box body 1 respectively through the tee joint 5 and the oil guide pipe 6. The grease flowing into the surrounding part of the lead screw 3 lubricates the contact surface between the lead screw 3 and the support box 13. The grease flowing into the support box 13 lubricates the worm gear pair composed of the worm gear 2 and the worm 9 and the lead screw nut pair composed of the worm gear 2 and the lead screw 3. An oil guide hole 8 is drilled inward at the root of the tooth of the worm gear 2. During the rotation of the worm 9, the grease adhering to the top of the tooth of the worm 9 will be squeezed into the internal oil storage groove 12 of the worm gear 2 through the oil guide hole 8. The grease in the oil storage groove 12 will be brought into the contact surface of the lead screw nut pair along with the axial movement of the trapezoidal lead screw 3 to lubricate the lead screw nut pair and reduce the wear of the lead screw nut pair.
