Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of differential of electric tricycles, in particular to a new spiral bevel gear differential for electric tricycles. Background Art
[0002] The differential of an electric tricycle is a mechanism that enables the left and right (or front and rear) drive wheels to rotate at different speeds. It mainly consists of left and right half-axle gears, two planetary gears and a gear carrier. Its function is to make the left and right wheels roll at different speeds when the vehicle turns or travels on an uneven road surface, that is, to ensure that the two drive wheels make pure rolling motion.
[0003] At present, the widely used differential of electric tricycles is the ordinary straight bevel gear drive, which has defects such as large gear backlash, unstable meshing, large noise and vibration, and weak strength and stiffness of the differential housing, bringing certain adverse effects to the using process. Therefore, we propose a new spiral bevel gear differential for electric tricycles. Summary of the Utility Model

Large spiral bevel gears are provided on both sides of the small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft. A flat thrust bearing gasket is provided on the other side of the large spiral bevel gear. A differential housing bearing is fixedly installed between the other side of the flat thrust bearing gasket and the inside of the left differential housing. A differential housing skeleton oil seal is provided in the middle of the inner surfaces on the other sides of the left differential housing and the right differential housing.
[0007] Further, the small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft is stuck in the groove between the inside of the left differential housing and the right differential housing.
[0008] Further, the small spiral bevel gears are symmetrically installed at both ends of the small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft, and are fixedly connected between the small spiral bevel gears and both ends of the small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft. The small spiral bevel gear rectangular groove gaskets are sleeved at both ends of the small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft.
[0009] Further, the number of the large spiral bevel gears is two groups, and the large spiral bevel gears are symmetrically installed on both sides of the small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft, and the large spiral bevel gears are meshed with the small spiral bevel gears.
[0010] Further, the other end of the large spiral bevel gear is connected between the flat thrust bearing gasket and the differential case bearing, and the large spiral bevel gear is movably connected to the inside of the differential left case and the differential right case through the differential case bearing.
[0011] Further, the differential left case and the differential right case are fixedly connected by a positioning pin, and the differential case skeleton oil seal is fixedly connected between the middle parts of the outer surfaces of the other sides of the differential left case and the differential right case respectively.
[0012] Beneficial effects
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present utility model provides a novel spiral bevel gear differential for an electric tricycle, having the following beneficial effects:

[0018] As shown Figure 1 in the figure, a new type of spiral bevel gear differential for an electric tricycle includes a differential left housing 1 and a differential right housing 2. A positioning pin 10 is provided between the connection parts of the differential left housing 1 and the differential right housing 2. A small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft 3 is provided in the middle of the differential left housing 1 and the differential right housing 2. Small spiral bevel gears 4 are fixedly installed on the outer circles at both ends of the small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft 3.

[0019] The small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft 3 is stuck in the groove between the inside of the differential left housing 1 and the differential right housing 2.
[0020] The small spiral bevel gears 4 are symmetrically installed at both ends of the small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft 3, and are fixedly connected between the small spiral bevel gears 4 and both ends of the small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft 3. The small spiral bevel gear rectangular groove gaskets 5 are sleeved on both ends of the small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft 3.
[0021] The number of the large spiral bevel gears 6 is two groups, and the large spiral bevel gears 6 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft 3, and are meshed and connected between the large spiral bevel gears 6 and the small spiral bevel gears 4.
[0022] The other end of the large spiral bevel gear 6 is connected between the flat thrust bearing gasket 7 and the differential housing bearing 8, and the large spiral bevel gear 6 is movably connected between the inside of the differential left housing 1 and the differential right housing 2 through the differential housing bearing 8.
[0023] The differential left housing 1 and the differential right housing 2 are fixedly connected through the positioning pin 10, and the differential housing skeleton oil seal 9 is fixedly connected between the middle of the outer surfaces on the other sides of the differential left housing 1 and the differential right housing 2 respectively.
[0024] Working principle
[0025] It is composed of parts such as the left differential housing 1 cast from aluminum alloy, the right differential housing 2, the small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft 3, the small spiral bevel gear 4, the small spiral bevel gear rectangular groove gasket 5, the large spiral bevel gear 6, the flat thrust bearing gasket 7, and the differential housing bearing 8. Grooves for placing the small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft 3 are provided in the left differential housing 1 and the right differential housing 2. Two small spiral bevel gears 4 are installed on the outer surfaces at both ends of the small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft 3. Card slots for installing the small spiral bevel gear rectangular groove gasket 5 are machined at both ends of the small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft 3. The small spiral bevel gear 4 transmits power to the large spiral bevel gear 6 through gear meshing. There are spline holes for installing the left and right half shafts on the large spiral bevel gear 6. The left and right half shafts are connected to the differential through splines, and then the power is transmitted to the left and right half shafts to drive the wheels to rotate. The left differential housing 1 and the right differential housing 2 ensure concentricity by the positioning method of one plane and two pins through two positioning pins 10. The small spiral bevel gear 4 is separated from the left differential housing 1 and the right differential housing 2 of the differential by the small spiral bevel gear rectangular groove gasket 5, avoiding wear on the left and right differential housings caused by the rotation of the small spiral bevel gear 4. Because when the small spiral bevel gear 4 rotates, the small spiral bevel gear rectangular groove gasket 5 is stuck on the small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft 3, and the small spiral bevel gear rotating shaft 3 is stuck in the card slots formed by the left differential housing 1 and the right differential housing 2, there is no relative rotation between the small spiral bevel gear rectangular groove gasket 5 and the left and right differential housings, thus avoiding friction between the small spiral bevel gear rectangular groove gasket 5 and the left and right housings.
