[0026] Referring to Figures 1 to 4 , the following embodiments are made for the ball head profile positioning step sleeve structure of the present invention:

[0027] As Figure 1 shown, a ball head profile positioning step sleeve structure includes: a shaft component 100 and a kit 200.

[0028] The shaft member 100 has a cylindrical shape, and the sleeve member 200 has a cylindrical sleeve shape. The sleeve member 200 is coaxially sleeved outside the shaft member 100. The shaft member 100 is provided with a convex protrusion 121, and the protrusion 121 is provided on the outside of the shaft member 100 in a semi-spherical shape. The sleeve member 200 is provided with a card slot 210 corresponding to the protrusion 121, and the protrusion 121 is embedded in the card slot 210. On the projection plane perpendicular to the axial direction, the contour lines of the card slot 210 and the protrusion 121 are both arc-shaped and coincide with each other.

[0029] During actual use, the connection and transmission between the sleeve member 200 and the shaft member 100 are realized through the matching structure of the card slot 210 and the protrusion 121. The card slot 210 and the protrusion 121 are in contact with each other through the arc-shaped contour line, so that the relative rotation of the sleeve member 200 and the shaft member 100 is restricted by the card slot 210 and the protrusion 121, so that the sleeve member 200 and the shaft member 100 can rotate synchronously.

[0030] The card slot 210 is arranged inside the sleeve member 200, so the card slot 210 cannot be processed by a tool arranged along the radial direction. Traditional flat key grooves require multiple tools. First, the general shape of the flat key groove is processed, and then the corners of the flat key groove are processed. And a relatively large thickness needs to be reserved for the sleeve parts to process the corners of the flat key groove; for convenient assembly, the flat key groove and the flat key generally adopt a clearance fit. Otherwise, the surface contact between the flat key and the flat key groove makes the axial assembly resistance very large. Therefore, the dynamic accuracy of the flat key structure during reciprocating rotation is low, and it is more suitable for unidirectional rotation transmission occasions. In the ball head contour positioning step sleeve structure of the present invention, the arc contour of the card slot 210 can be directly processed and formed by a tool with the same diameter, and the processing difficulty and processing cost are relatively low. And because the card slot 210 with an arc contour does not need to process the corners, the thickness requirement for the sleeve member 200 is low and it can adapt to the thin-walled sleeve member 200. The card slot 210 and the protrusion 121 are in contact with each other through the arc-shaped contour line. Even if an interference fit or an interference fit is adopted, the resistance or difficulty during assembly is not very high, avoiding the existence of a gap between the card slot 210 and the protrusion 121, and improving the dynamic accuracy.

[0031] To provide an axial positioning reference for the sleeve member 200, the shaft member 100 is provided with a shaft shoulder 130, and the shaft shoulder 130 has a limiting surface 131. The sleeve member 200 is provided with a positioning surface 220. The positioning surface 220 and the limiting surface 131 are both perpendicular to the axial directions of the shaft member 100 and the sleeve member 200, and the positioning surface 220 abuts against the limiting surface 131. Referring to the attached drawings, taking the axial directions of the shaft member 100 and the sleeve member 200 as the front and rear directions, the shaft shoulder 130 and the sleeve member 200 are arranged front and rear. The limiting surface 131 is arranged at the rear end of the shaft shoulder 130, and the positioning surface 220 is arranged at the front end of the sleeve member 200.

[0032] The limiting surface 131 and the protruding portion 121 are arranged front and back, the protruding portion 121 is arranged at the rear side of the limiting surface 131, the card slot 210 extends in the front-back direction, the card slot 210 has an opening facing forward, and the opening is arranged on the positioning surface 220 to face the limiting surface 131. During the assembly process, the kit 200 is sleeved on the shaft member 100 from back to front, and the protruding portion 121 is embedded into the card slot 210 through the opening until the positioning surface 220 abuts against the limiting surface 131.

[0033] The depth of the card slot 210 is set according to the axial distance between the end of the protruding portion 121 away from the limiting surface 131 and the limiting surface 131. Specifically, the depth of the card slot 210 is not less than the axial distance between the end of the protruding portion 121 away from the limiting surface 131 and the limiting surface 131, so that the protruding portion 121 can be embedded into the card slot 210, thereby enabling the positioning surface 220 to abut against the limiting surface 131.

[0034] In this embodiment, the protruding portion 121 of the shaft member 100 adopts a split structure, and the shaft member 100 includes a shaft body 110 and a ball head pin 120. The ball head pin 120 includes a connecting end 122 and the protruding portion 121, the protruding portion 121 is arranged at one end of the ball head pin 120, and the connecting end 122 is arranged at the other end of the ball head pin 120 and is inserted into the shaft body 110.

[0035] The shaft body 110 is in a cylindrical shape, and a pin hole 111 extending in the radial direction is arranged on the outer side wall of the shaft body 110. Both the connecting end 122 and the pin hole 111 are in a cylindrical shape, and the connecting end 122 is coaxially inserted into the pin hole 111. During actual use, the pin hole 111 is machined on the outer side of the shaft body 110, and the ball head pin 120 is positioned on the shaft body 110 by inserting the cylindrical connecting end 122 into the pin hole 111.

[0036] To ensure that the protruding portion 121 can be exposed outside the shaft body 110, the height dimension of the connecting end 122 in its axial direction is greater than the depth dimension of the pin hole 111 in the radial direction of the shaft body 110, so that after the connecting end 122 is completely inserted into the bottom of the pin hole 111, the protruding portion 121 still protrudes outside the shaft body 110.

[0037] The kit 200 is in the shape of a cylindrical sleeve. The kit 200 has a through hole 230 that penetrates axially. The diameter of the through hole 230 is set according to the diameter of the shaft member 100. The shaft body 110 is inserted into the through hole 230. The card slot 210 extends along the axial direction of the kit 200. The card slot 210 communicates with the through hole 230. The card slot 210 has a bottom and two side walls. The two side walls are two planes that extend in the front and rear directions and are arranged opposite to each other left and right. The projection of the bottom in the front and rear directions is in the shape of a semi-circular arc. The semi-spherical convex portion 121 of the ball head pin 120 abuts against the bottom, so that its arc contour coincides with the bottom contour of the card slot 210.

[0038] The card slot 210 can be machined by a milling cutter that extends axially. The radius of the milling cutter is the same as the radius of the convex portion 121 and the arc path of the card slot 210. The milling cutter extends into the through hole 230 of the kit 200 and then feeds radially to machine the card slot 210 on the inner side wall of the kit 200. The processing difficulty and cost are low.

[0039] A boss 240 is provided at the front end of the kit 200. The outer diameter of the boss 240 is larger than the outer diameter of other positions of the kit 200. The thickness dimension of the boss 240 in the axial direction is larger than the depth dimension of the card slot 210. The boss 240 with a larger wall thickness can provide space for the card slot 210. Other positions of the kit 200 can adopt a smaller outer diameter to form a thin-walled structure, making the overall structure more compact. To reduce the size of the card slot 210 in the front and rear directions, the distance between the convex portion 121 and the limiting surface 131 should not be too large.

[0040] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 shown, the number of the convex portion 121 and the card slot 210 is one each. The kit 200 is also provided with a balance groove 250. The balance groove 250 and the card slot 210 are respectively arranged on the radial two sides of the kit 200. The semi-spherical convex portion 121 will not completely fill the card slot 210. After the convex portion 121 is embedded in the card slot 210, there is still a certain gap in the card slot 210. Through the balance groove 250, the weight of the kit 200 with only a single card slot 210 can be made uniform, avoiding eccentric beating or tendency during the rotation of the kit 200 on one side, and the accuracy is higher.

[0041] In some other embodiments, as Figure 4 shown, the number of the convex portion 121 and the card slot 210 is two each. The two convex portions 121 are respectively arranged on the radial two sides of the shaft member 100. The card slot 210 is arranged on the radial two sides of the kit 200.

[0042] In some other embodiments, the number of the protruding portions 121 and the card slots 210 may also be more than three. The protruding portions 121 are evenly distributed around the circumference of the shaft member 100, and the card slots 210 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the protruding portions 121.

[0043] In the description of the present specification, the description with reference to the terms "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "illustrative embodiments", "examples", "specific examples", or "some examples", etc. means that the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described in connection with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present invention. In the present specification, the schematic representations of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any one or more embodiments or examples in a suitable manner.

[0044] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art can still make various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention. These changes, modifications, equivalent variations, or substitutions are all included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
