Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of speed reducers, in particular to a gear speed reducer. Background Art
[0002] A speed reducer is a power transmission mechanism. Among the currently used mechanisms for transmitting power and motion, speed reducers are widely used in fields such as metallurgy, mining, hoisting, transportation, cement, construction, chemical industry, textile, printing and dyeing, and pharmaceutical industries.
[0003] A speed reducer is generally used for transmission equipment with low speed and large torque. It reduces the speed by meshing a gear with fewer teeth on the input shaft of the speed reducer with a large gear on the output shaft to transmit the power of an electric motor, internal combustion engine, or other high-speed rotating power source.
[0004] Inside the gear speed reducer, multiple groups of gears mesh with each other for transmission. The gears will be squeezed against each other to achieve power transmission. During the squeezing process, the edges of the gears are prone to breakage and generate metal debris, which flows along with the lubricating fluid. After the flowing debris enters the meshing surface of the gears, it is likely to cause damage to the meshing surface. Summary of the Utility Model
