Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of agricultural machinery knife shafts, and particularly relates to a knife shaft drive assembly for improving the sealing effect. Background Technique
[0002] Agricultural machinery plays a crucial role in modern agriculture. Many agricultural machines are equipped with knife shafts for operations such as cutting, crushing, and soil turning, such as rotary tillers, mowers, straw crushers, straw returning machines, paddy field levelers, and micro-tillers.
[0003] The working environment of the agricultural machinery knife shaft is usually relatively harsh, and it often faces the erosion of soil, broken grass, moisture, and dust. After moisture enters the knife shaft drive gear, it will cause the corrosion of gears, bearings, etc., resulting in increased gear wear. After particulate matter such as sand grains or soil enters the transmission gear, it will become an abrasive. During the rotation of the gear, the hard particles will accelerate the wear of the gear surface, reduce the transmission efficiency and accuracy, and even cause the gear to get stuck. At the same time, for the knife shaft drive component with poor sealing performance, with the leakage of lubricating oil, the lubricating oil in the transmission box will be insufficient, the lubrication condition will deteriorate, and the gear will operate under high friction, resulting in increased wear.
[0004] For the existing knife shaft drive components, the sealing is mainly achieved by setting floating oil seals at the connection with the transmission box housing. With long-term use, the performance of the floating oil seals decreases, resulting in poor sealing effect and requiring frequent maintenance. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] Aiming at the above deficiencies of the existing technology, the problem to be solved by the utility model is that for the existing knife shaft drive components, due to high-speed rotation, high requirements are imposed on the sealing performance, and the existing floating oil seal sealing structure urgently needs to be improved. The utility model provides a knife shaft drive assembly for improving the sealing effect, which is stable and reliable, can reduce the maintenance frequency, block the erosion of soil, broken grass, moisture, and dust, and avoid the leakage of lubricating oil.

The connection disk is installed in the fixed seat through a bearing. The fixed seat is detachably installed on the box body. The connection disk drives the rotating knife shaft to rotate.
[0008] It further includes a blocking ring arranged on the disk surface of the connection disk. A groove is arranged on the outer end surface of the fixed seat to cooperate with the blocking ring. When the connection disk is installed on the fixed seat, the blocking ring is inserted into the groove.
[0009] At least one skeleton oil seal and one muddy water oil seal are fixedly installed on the inner ring of the fixed seat.
[0010] According to another embodiment of the present invention or any one of the foregoing embodiments of the tool shaft drive assembly, wherein there are more than two of the blocking rings, which are integrally formed with the connecting disk.
