In this way, the housing can make the weight of the motor assembly equipped with this housing lighter, the volume smaller, and the cost lower.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1It is a schematic structural diagram of a vehicle provided by some embodiments of the present application. The vehicle 10000 provided by the present application may include, but is not limited to, an electric pedal device 1000. The electric pedal device 1000 is used to assist the driver and passengers to enter and exit the vehicle cabin conveniently. Among them, the electric pedal device 1000 can minimize the impact on the passability of the vehicle 10000, thereby improving the user experience.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 It is a schematic structural diagram of an electric pedal device provided by some embodiments of the present application. The electric pedal device 1000 provided by the present application may include, but is not limited to, a motor assembly 100, a mounting bracket 200, a swing arm assembly 300, and a pedal assembly 400. The motor assembly 100 is fixed to the mounting bracket 200. The motor assembly 100 is in driving connection with the swing arm assembly 300. The swing arm assembly 300 is in driving connection with the pedal assembly 400. Driven by the motor assembly 100, the pedal assembly 400 can extend and / or retract relative to the body of the vehicle 1000. The electric pedal device 1000 can prevent the motor assembly 100 from affecting the passability of the vehicle 10000 equipped with the electric pedal device 1000. Among them, when the electric pedal device 1000 is fixed to the chassis of the vehicle 10000, the distance between the motor assembly 100 and the horizontal ground is greater than the distance between the pedal assembly 400 and the horizontal ground.

[0033] Please refer to in combination with Figures 2-4 , Figure 3 It is a schematic structural diagram of the motor assembly 100 provided by some embodiments of the present application, Figure 4 It is an exploded schematic diagram of the motor assembly 100 provided by some embodiments of the present application. The motor assembly 100 provided by the present application may include, but is not limited to, a box body 110, a housing assembly 120, an armature rotor assembly 130, a worm and worm gear assembly 140, an output shaft assembly 150, and at least one elastic adjusting member 171. The box body 110 is fixedly connected to the housing assembly 120. The armature rotor assembly 130 is disposed within the space formed by enclosing the housing assembly 120 and the box body 110 assembly. The worm and worm gear assembly 140 is disposed within the box body 110 and meshes with the armature rotor assembly 130 to achieve a driving connection. A partial structure of the output shaft assembly 150 is disposed within the box body 110 and meshes with the worm and worm gear assembly 140 to achieve a driving connection. Among them, a mounting position is provided on the box body 110 to be fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 200 of the electric pedal device 1000. The output shaft assembly 150 is in driving connection with the swing arm assembly of the electric pedal device 1000 to drive the swing arm assembly to drive the pedal assembly to expand and / or retract relative to the body of the vehicle 10000.

[0034] In this embodiment, the worm and worm gear assembly 140 serves as the intermediate transmission assembly 102, enabling the power of the armature rotor assembly 130 to be transmitted to the output shaft assembly 150. The elastic adjustment member 171 is used to automatically adjust the meshing clearance between the armature rotor assembly 130 and the intermediate transmission assembly 102, and / or between the intermediate transmission assembly 102 and the output shaft assembly 150.

[0035] It can be understood that after the motor assembly 100 has been used for a period of time, the meshing clearance between the armature rotor assembly 130 and the intermediate transmission assembly 102 and / or the meshing clearance between the intermediate transmission assembly 102 and the output shaft assembly 150 will increase due to wear. At this time, the elastic adjustment member 171 in the preloaded state will, under the action of its own restoring force, cause the above-mentioned meshing clearance to return to the normal state, thereby avoiding a reduction in transmission efficiency and abnormal noise caused by an excessive clearance.

[0036] Optionally, the elastic adjustment member 171 can be a wave spring. The wave spring has the advantages of small volume, light weight, long life, and saving axial space.

[0037] In this embodiment, the diameter of the housing assembly 120 is 60 - 65 mm, making the motor assembly 100 appear more lightweight and compact.

[0038] Please refer to Figures 2-6 , Figure 5 which is a schematic structural diagram of the box body 110 provided in some embodiments of the present application, Figure 6 and which is a schematic structural diagram of the locking snap ring 144 provided in some embodiments of the present application. The box body 110 provided in the present application has a compact structure, light weight, low production cost, and can achieve good sealing at each opening. The box body 110 may include, but is not limited to, a first cavity 111, a second cavity 112, and a third cavity 113. The first cavity 111 is connected to the second cavity 112 and is in communication at the connection between the two. The first cavity 111 is connected to the third cavity 113 and is in communication at the connection between the two. The worm and worm gear assembly 140 is accommodated in the first cavity 111. The armature rotor assembly 130 is accommodated in the space enclosed by the housing assembly 120 and the second cavity 112. A partial structure of the output shaft assembly 150 is accommodated in the third cavity 113. At the communication between the first cavity 111 and the second cavity 112, the armature rotor assembly 130 is in transmission connection with the worm and worm gear assembly 140. At the communication between the first cavity 111 and the third cavity 113, the worm and worm gear assembly 140 is in transmission connection with the output shaft assembly 150.

[0039] Further, the first cavity 111 may include, but is not limited to, a first sub-cavity 1111, a second sub-cavity 1112, and a third sub-cavity 1113 that are connected to each other and arranged in sequence. The second sub-cavity 1112 communicates with the second cavity 112. The third sub-cavity 1113 communicates with the third cavity 113. One end of the first sub-cavity 1111 away from the second sub-cavity 1112 is provided with a third opening 1111a. The inner wall of the first sub-cavity 1111 at the end away from the second sub-cavity 1112 is provided with an internal thread 1111b. A shoulder 1112a is provided at the connection between the first sub-cavity 1111 and the second sub-cavity 1112. The motor assembly 100 further includes a locking member 115. The circumferential side of the locking member 115 is provided with an external thread 1151. The external thread 1151 of the locking member 115 is screwed with the internal thread 1111b of the first sub-cavity 1111. Wherein, the locking member 115 can be screwed until the end face of the locking member 115 is flush with the plane where the third opening 1111a of the first sub-cavity 1111 is located. In some embodiments, the distance between the end face of the locking member 115 and the plane where the third opening 1111a is located is less than or equal to 1 mm.

[0040] In this embodiment, when the electric pedal device 1000 is fixed to the chassis of the vehicle 10000, the end face of the locking member 115 of the motor assembly 100 faces the ground.

[0041] It can be understood that since the end face of the locking member 115 of the motor assembly 100 faces the ground when the electric pedal device 1000 is fixed to the chassis of the vehicle 10000, therefore, by screwing the locking member 115 until its end face is almost flush with the plane where the third opening 1111a of the first sub-cavity 1111 is located, it is possible to effectively avoid the influence of the motor assembly 100 on the passability of the vehicle 10000 equipped with the electric pedal device 1000, thereby improving the user experience.

[0042] Further, the first cavity 111 further includes opposite third mounting seats 1114 and fourth mounting seats 1115. Wherein, the third mounting seat 1114 is connected to one end of the third sub-cavity 1113 away from the second sub-cavity 1112. In some embodiments, the fourth mounting seat 1115 may be constituted by the first sub-cavity 1111. In other embodiments, the fourth mounting seat 1115 may be jointly constituted by the first sub-cavity 1111 and the locking member 115. One end of the intermediate transmission assembly 102 is disposed on the third mounting seat 1114. The other end of the intermediate transmission assembly 102 is disposed on the fourth mounting seat 1115. Wherein, the elastic adjusting member 171 is disposed between the third mounting seat 1114 and the intermediate transmission assembly 102 and / or between the fourth mounting seat 1115 and the intermediate transmission assembly 102.

[0043] Further, the motor assembly 100 further includes a first bearing 180 and a second bearing 141. The first bearing 180 is disposed on the third mounting seat 1114. The second bearing 141 is disposed on the fourth mounting seat 1115. One end of the intermediate transmission assembly 102 is rotatably connected to the first bearing 180, and the other end of the intermediate transmission assembly 102 is rotatably connected to the second bearing 141 to improve the smoothness and stability of rotation. The locking member 115 is screwed to the internal thread 1111b of the first sub-cavity 1111 through its external thread 1151, so that the second bearing 141 is fixed to the first sub-cavity 1111. The outer ring of the second bearing 141 abuts between the shoulder 1112a and the locking member 115.

[0044] Optionally, the first bearing 180 may be a deep groove ball bearing with a clearance of 6-20 um. The second bearing 141 may be a deep groove ball bearing with a clearance of 11-25 um to improve its ability to withstand axial loads, thereby further improving the smoothness and service life of the rotation of the intermediate transmission assembly 102.

[0045] Further, the motor assembly 100 further includes a locking snap ring 144. The locking snap ring 144 is used to lock the second bearing 141 to the intermediate transmission assembly 102 to prevent the second bearing 141 from axially moving.

[0046] Further, the locking snap ring 144 is formed by connecting 8 concave-convex structures 1441 end to end, so that the locking snap ring 144 contacts the second bearing 141 more fully. The inner side of the locking snap ring 144 is V-shaped to facilitate embedding into the gap between the second bearing 141 and the intermediate transmission assembly 102.

[0047] Please refer to Figures 2-7 , Figure 7 which is a schematic structural diagram of the locking member 115 provided by some embodiments of the present application. In some embodiments, the end face of the locking member 115 is recessed towards the first sub-cavity 1111 to form a plurality of first hollow structures 1152 to reduce the weight of the locking member 115, thereby reducing the weight of the motor assembly 100. In other embodiments, the end face of the locking member 115 is recessed towards the first sub-cavity 1111 to form a tightening and loosening adjustment structure 1153. The tightening and loosening adjustment structure 1153 is used to cooperate with a specific tool to lock or loosen the locking member 115. The tightening and loosening adjustment structure 1153 may include, but is not limited to, a positioning hole 1153a and a plurality of grooves 1153b evenly distributed around the positioning hole 1153a. Among them, the positioning hole 1153a is used for positioning and cooperating with the tool. The groove 1153b is used to cooperate with the tool to transmit the locking force or the loosening force.

[0048] Further, a second annular groove 1154 is provided on the circumferential side of the locking member 115 between the end face and the external thread 1151. The motor assembly 100 further includes a second sealing ring 162. The second sealing ring 162 is disposed in the second annular groove 1154 and abuts against the inner wall of the first sub-cavity 1111 to prevent particles and liquid from entering the box body 110 through the third opening 1111a.

[0049] It can be understood that by disposing the second sealing ring 162 on the circumferential side of the locking member 115, the compression amount of the second sealing ring 162 can be made independent of the screwing process of the locking member 115, thereby avoiding a reduction in the sealing effect caused by excessive deformation of the second sealing ring 162.

[0050] Optionally, the material of the locking member 115 can be engineering plastic to further reduce the weight of the locking member 115 and the motor assembly 100.

[0051] Please refer to Figure 8 , Figure 8 FIG. is a schematic structural view of a housing assembly 120 provided in some embodiments of the present application. The housing assembly 120 may include, but is not limited to, a motor housing 121 and a magnet fixed to the inner wall of the motor housing 121. Wherein, a first mounting seat 1211 is provided at one end of the motor housing 121, and the other end of the motor housing 121 is connected to the second cavity 112 of the box body 110.

[0052] Please refer to in combination Figures 2-5 FIG., in some embodiments, the second cavity 112 may include, but is not limited to, a connected first joint portion 1121 and a main body portion 1122. At least two first annular grooves 1121b are provided on the circumferential side of the first joint portion 1121. The motor assembly 100 further includes at least two first sealing rings 161. The first sealing rings 161 are disposed in the first annular grooves 1121b. The first joint portion 1121 is for being embedded in the motor housing 121, and when the first joint portion 1121 is embedded in the motor housing 121, the first sealing rings 161 abut between the motor housing 121 and the first joint portion 1121 to achieve a sealing function. Specifically, two first annular grooves 1121b may be provided on the circumferential side of the first joint portion 1121. Correspondingly, the number of the first sealing rings 161 may be two. Through the arrangement of the two first annular grooves 1121b and the two first sealing rings 161, the sealing effect between the motor housing 121 and the second cavity 112 can be better, so as to achieve a higher level of waterproof performance.

[0053] Further, a mounting edge 1122a is provided at the connection between the main body portion 1122 and the first joint portion 1121. The mounting edge 1122a surrounds the first joint portion 1121. The motor housing 121 can be attached to the mounting edge 1122a and fastened to the main body portion 1122 by fasteners. The main body portion 1122 communicates with the second sub-cavity 1112 of the first cavity 111.

[0054] Please refer to Figures 2-5 Figures 2-5 In some other embodiments, the second cavity 112 may include, but is not limited to, a fourth sub-cavity 1124 and a fifth sub-cavity 1125 that communicate with each other. The fifth sub-cavity 1125 communicates with the second sub-cavity 1112 of the first cavity 111. One end of the fourth sub-cavity 1124 away from the fifth sub-cavity 1125 is provided with a first opening 1121a. An installation edge 1122a is provided at one end of the fourth sub-cavity 1124 near the first opening 1121a. The installation edge 1122a is used for fixedly connecting to the motor housing 121 of the housing assembly 120. A stepped structure 1122b is provided on the installation edge 1122a, making the overall box body 110 look more compact and at the same time reducing the volume and weight of the box body 110.
