Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of lubricating oil cooling, and specifically to a lubricating oil cooler. Background Art

[0002] A lubricating oil cooler is a device used to reduce the temperature of lubricating oil. The lubricating oil in the reduction gearbox often heats up due to friction during long-term operation, which not only affects the performance of the lubricating oil but may also have an adverse impact on the operating stability and lifespan of the equipment. Therefore, the role of the lubricating oil cooler is particularly important.

[0003] Currently, for the coolant used to cool the lubricating oil in the reduction gearbox, the design of its injection pipe and outlet pipe is generally fixed, making it difficult to adjust the positions of the injection and outlet pipes. This may limit the layout of other equipment or components nearby. When the equipment layout needs to be adjusted to meet new production requirements or optimize the production process, the fixed injection and outlet pipes may become insurmountable obstacles. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the purpose of the present utility model is to solve the drawbacks in the background art and propose a lubricating oil cooler to solve the problems existing in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the present utility model provides a lubricating oil cooler, including a base. A support leg is fixedly installed on the top of the base. A heat exchanger is arranged on the top of the support leg. Rotary joints are arranged at both the input and output ends of the heat exchanger. One end of each rotary joint away from the heat exchanger is respectively rotatably connected to an injection pipe and an outlet pipe. A clamping mechanism for stabilizing the injection pipe and the outlet pipe is arranged on the base.

[0006] Preferably, the clamping mechanism includes a fixed platform fixedly connected to the top of the base. An arc-shaped groove is formed on the top of the fixed platform. After the injection pipe and the outlet pipe are rotated and adjusted through the clamping mechanism, they can be stabilized to prevent deviation during the cooling and oil guiding process.

[0007] Preferably, a rotating shaft is fixedly penetrated through the inside of the fixed platform, and a clamping hoop frame is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the rotating shaft.

[0008] Preferably, rubber pads are arranged at both the arc-shaped bottom of the clamping hoop frame and inside the arc-shaped groove. An opening is formed on the outer surface of the clamping hoop frame. The opening is designed as a quasi-rectangle, and the screw can slide a certain distance along the opening.

[0009] Preferably, a screw is rotatably connected to the top of the fixed platform. A screw sleeve is threadedly sleeved on the outer surface of the screw, and a knob is arranged on the top of the screw sleeve.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0011] 1. For this lubricating oil cooler, by allowing the pipe heads of the injection pipe and the outlet pipe to be adjusted circumferentially, the system can easily adapt to different equipment layout requirements. This flexibility enables the production line to quickly adjust the equipment position when facing new production demands or needing to optimize the process, without worrying about the lubricating oil pipeline becoming an obstacle, thus improving the adaptability and efficiency of the overall production line.

[0012] 2. For this lubricating oil cooler, by introducing structures such as rotary joints and clamp frames, the improved design ensures the stable connection of the pipeline while adjusting the pipeline position. The cooperation between the clamp frame and the arc-shaped groove, as well as the limiting effect of the screw sleeve on the clamp frame, jointly constitute a stable fixing mechanism, effectively preventing the pipeline from loosening or falling off during operation, and enhancing the overall stability and reliability of the system.

[0016] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of this application.

[0017] Please refer to Figure 1-2 , a lubricating oil cooler, including a base 1, a support foot 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the base 1, a heat exchanger 3 is arranged on the top of the support foot 2, rotary joints 4 are arranged at both the input and output ends of the heat exchanger 3, one end of the rotary joint 4 away from the heat exchanger 3 is respectively rotatably connected to an injection pipe 5 and an outlet pipe 6, and a clamping mechanism for stabilizing the injection pipe 5 and the outlet pipe 6 is arranged on the base 1.

[0018] Through the above technical solution, when the device is in use, the lubricating oil in the speed reducer can be cooled by the heat exchanger 3. The oil injection pipe 5 and the oil outlet pipe 6 are responsible for the introduction and export of the lubricating oil, and the connection positions of the oil injection pipe 5 and the oil outlet pipe 6 can be adjusted according to requirements. The cooperating clamping mechanism can keep the adjusted oil injection pipe 5 and oil outlet pipe 6 stable.

[0019] Specifically, the clamping mechanism includes a fixed platform 7 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, and an arc-shaped groove 8 is opened at the top of the fixed platform 7.

[0020] Through the above technical solution, the arc-shaped groove 8 opened at the top of the fixed platform 7 is designed to cooperate with the stable placement of the oil injection pipe 5 and the oil outlet pipe 6.

[0021] Specifically, a rotating shaft 9 is fixedly penetrated through the inner side of the fixed platform 7, and a clamping bracket 10 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the rotating shaft 9.

[0022] Through the above technical solution, the clamping bracket 10 can rotate at a certain angle along the rotating shaft 9, and during this period, the opening 12 and the screw 13 will slide.

[0023] Specifically, rubber pads 11 are provided on both the arc-shaped bottom of the clamping bracket 10 and the arc-shaped groove 8, and an opening 12 is opened on the outer surface of the clamping bracket 10.

[0024] Through the above technical solution, the design of the rubber pad 11 is to make the clamping of the oil injection pipe 5 and the oil outlet pipe 6 more stable and reduce the probability of deviation and shaking, and the screw 13 passes through the opening 12.

[0025] Specifically, a screw 13 is rotatably connected to the top of the fixed platform 7, a screw sleeve 14 is threadedly sleeved on the outer surface of the screw 13, and a knob 15 is provided on the top of the screw sleeve 14.

[0026] Through the above technical solution, the screw 13 can only rotate itself and cannot move. During the movement of the clamping bracket 10, a sliding will occur between the opening 12 and the screw 13. This design is to increase the rotation space of the clamping bracket 10 in order to better stabilize or adjust the oil injection pipe 5 and the oil outlet pipe 6.

[0027] Working principle: During the process of cooling the lubricating oil in the speed reducer, the lubricating oil can be introduced into the heat exchanger 3 through the injection pipe 5 and cooled in the heat exchanger 3. The main function of the heat exchanger 3 is to transfer heat between two or more fluids, causing changes in their temperatures. In the scenario of lubricating oil cooling, the heat exchanger 3 usually takes the lubricating oil as the heat source fluid and uses a cooling medium (such as cooling water or air) as the cooling fluid to achieve heat transfer. After cooling, the lubricating oil is discharged through the outlet pipe 6 and then re-introduced into the speed reducer. When it is necessary to re-adjust the equipment layout to adapt to new production requirements or optimize the production process, the pipe head positions of the injection pipe 5 and the outlet pipe 6 can be adjusted to avoid obstruction. That is, at this time, only the injection pipe 5 and the outlet pipe 6 need to be rotated along the rotary joint 4, and the pipe head connection of the two will move in a circular motion accordingly until it is adjusted to a suitable position for optimizing the equipment layout. After completing the adjustment of the pipe head positions of the injection pipe 5 and the outlet pipe 6, the clamp frame 10 can be rotated along the rotating shaft 9 until the clamp frame 10 tightly clamps the injection pipe 5 and the outlet pipe 6 in the arc-shaped groove 8. With the cooperation of the rubber pad 11, it can improve the clamping stability while reducing the damage to the pipeline during the clamping process. During the rotation of the clamp frame 10, there will be a sliding between the screw 13 and the opening 12. Finally, the knob 15 needs to be rotated to drive the nut sleeve 14 to rotate. During this process, the nut sleeve 14 will rotate along the screw 13 and gradually move down until the nut sleeve 14 tightly abuts against the upper surface of the clamp frame 10, thereby stably limiting the clamp frame 10 and making the injection pipe 5 and the outlet pipe 6 in a stable state after the position adjustment. Thus, the purpose of stabilizing them after adjusting the pipe head positions of the injection pipe 5 and the outlet pipe 6 is completed, and the effect of optimizing the layout is achieved.

[0028] In summary, the adjustable design of the injection pipe 5 and the outlet pipe 6 in the lubricating oil cooling system of the present application not only improves the flexibility of the equipment layout, reduces the equipment transformation cost and maintenance difficulty, but also enhances the stability and reliability of the system, reduces the damage to the pipeline, and improves the user experience and satisfaction.

[0029] Although the embodiments of the present application have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present application. The scope of the present application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
