Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a planetary gear limiting mechanism and an industrial fan, belonging to the technical field of gears. Background Art
[0002] Planetary gear systems are widely used in mechanical systems, especially in transmission systems and speed reducers. The input torque is transmitted to the planetary gears through the sun gear, and the planetary gears then transmit the torque to the external gear ring, thereby achieving different reduction ratios and torque outputs. As a result, they can withstand greater loads, and the load distribution is uniform, which helps to reduce wear and extend the service life.
[0003] However, in the actual application of existing planetary gears, the planetary gear shaft is prone to self-rotation or axial movement along the axis of the planetary gear shaft. As a result, when the planetary gear rotates, the friction between the gears increases, leading to easy wear of the gears. Moreover, the heat generated by the friction may cause the gear system to overheat, affecting performance and service life. In addition, the self-rotation and axial movement of the planetary gear shaft will cause a loss of transmission efficiency, especially in applications with large loads. Summary of the Utility Model

[0026] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3, the planetary gear limiting mechanism shown in an embodiment of the present application. The planetary gear limiting mechanism includes a planetary gear shaft 20 and a limiting component 30. Among them, the planetary gear shaft 20 is installed on the planet carrier 10, and a planetary gear 40 is rotatably connected to the planetary gear shaft 20. A sun gear 50 is arranged inside the planetary gear 40, and a ring gear 60 is meshed and connected to the outside. In application, the planetary gear 40 can be driven to rotate by the sun gear 50, thereby driving the ring gear 60 to rotate. It is also possible to use the ring gear 60 as the input and the sun gear 50 as the output, which is not limited here.
[0027] The planetary gear shaft 20 includes a mounting portion 21 arranged inside the planet carrier 10 for mounting the planetary gear 40 and a connecting portion 22 mounted on the planet carrier 10. The connecting portion 22 penetrates to the outside of the planet carrier 10. In this embodiment, the planet carrier 10 includes a support seat 11 and a fixing plate 12 mounted on the support seat 11. A receiving cavity is formed between the support seat 11 and the fixing plate 12. The planetary gear and the sun gear 50 are arranged in the receiving cavity, and part of the planetary gear extends out of the receiving cavity to be connected to the inner core of the ring gear 60. Both ends of the planetary gear shaft 20 are respectively connected to the support seat 11 and the fixing plate 12 of the fixing plate 12, thereby improving the fixing effect on the planetary gear and improving the stability of the entire gear system. Of course, in other embodiments, the planet carrier 10 can also be a mounting plate fixed only to one end of the planetary gear shaft 20.
[0028] The limiting component 30 includes a limiting member 31 fixedly installed on the outside of the planet carrier 10 and a limiting groove arranged at the end of the connecting portion 22. The limiting member 31 is clamped in the limiting groove to limit the movement of the planetary gear shaft 20. The opening of the limiting groove is arranged along the radial direction of the planetary gear shaft 20. The limiting member 31 is stuck in the limiting groove and abuts against the inner wall surface of the limiting groove to limit the rotation of the planetary gear shaft 20 and the movement of the planetary gear shaft 20 along its own axis direction.
[0029] In an embodiment, a fixing member 32 is arranged at the end of the connecting portion 22, and the limiting groove is formed between the fixing member 32 and the connecting portion 22. The limiting groove is formed by enclosing the fixing member 32 and the connecting portion 22, which is convenient for adjusting the size of the limiting groove through the fixing member 32 to facilitate the installation or replacement of the limiting member 31.
[0030] In one embodiment, a semi-circular notch 221 is formed at the end of the connecting portion 22. The fixing member 32 and the semi-circular notch 221 enclose a limiting groove. The semi-circular notch 221 is formed by collapsing from the end of the connecting portion 22 along the axial direction. The fixing member 32 is buckled on the end of the connecting portion 22. The semi-circular notch 221 and the fixing member 32 enclose a limiting groove, and the inner wall surfaces of the semi-circular notch 221 and the fixing member 32 that face each other are flush with the outer surface of the planet carrier 10. The clamping member is clamped in the limiting groove, and the three inner wall surfaces of the limiting groove are in contact with the outer surface of the clamping member, thereby restricting the self-rotation or axial movement of the planet gear shaft 20 along its own axis. Of course, in other embodiments, the limiting groove can also be in other forms, such as a through groove arranged radially along the planet gear shaft 20. The self-rotation or axial movement of the planet gear shaft 20 is restricted by clamping a limiting block in the through groove and fixing both ends to the planet carrier 10, as long as the above effects can be achieved, and no specific limitation is made here.
[0031] In one embodiment, the fixing member 32 includes a fixing screw 321 connected to the planet gear shaft 20 and a gasket 322 sleeved on the fixing screw 321. A threaded hole is provided in the connecting portion 22 of the planet gear shaft 20. The gasket 322 is fixed to the connecting portion 22 of the planet gear shaft 20 by the screw 321. The gasket 322 and the semi-circular notch 221 enclose a limiting groove. With such a setting, it is convenient for installation and disassembly.
[0032] In one embodiment, a plurality of planet gear shafts 20 are provided. The limiting member 31 and the planet gear shafts 20 are independently arranged one-to-one, or a plurality of limiting portions corresponding to the planet gear shafts 20 are provided on one limiting member 31. Generally, multiple are provided in the planetary gear 40 transmission assembly, and the specific number can be set according to needs, and no specific limitation is made here. Therefore, the limiting member 31 can be separately provided according to the limiting grooves on the planet gear shafts 20, or can also be set as an integrally formed limiting member 31, and limiting portions are correspondingly provided on the limiting member 31.
[0033] In one embodiment, three planet gear shafts 20 are provided. The limiting member 31 is in the shape of a triangular plate. The edge 311 of the triangular plate is clamped in the limiting groove. By clamping the edge 311 of the triangular plate in the semi-circular limiting groove, the two semi-circular surfaces of the limiting groove are clamped on both sides in the thickness direction of the triangular plate, thereby restricting the axial movement of the planet gear shaft 20 along its own axis. The bottom surface of the limiting groove is attached to the side surface of the triangular plate to restrict the self-rotation of the planet gear shaft 20. The three edges 311 of the integrally formed triangular plate are used to limit the three planet gear shafts 20, reducing the processing difficulty and installation difficulty of the limiting member 31, and the limiting member 31 has higher strength and a more stable structure. Of course, in other embodiments, when the number of planet gear shafts 20 provided is greater than three, a corresponding number of polygonal plates can also be used as the limiting member 31.
[0034] In one embodiment, mounting holes 312 are provided near the three edges of the triangular plate-like member, and are fixed to the planet carrier 10 by fixing bolts 33. By providing the mounting holes 312 at the three edges of the triangular plate-like member and using the fixing bolts 33, the fixing bolts 33 are distributed in a triangular shape on the triangular plate-like member, making the triangular plate-like member more firmly fixed.
[0035] By providing a limiting member on the planet carrier to engage with the limiting groove on the planet wheel shaft, the rotation of the planet wheel shaft and its reverse movement along its own axis on the planet carrier are restricted, thus solving the problem of gear wear caused by the rotation and axial movement of the planet wheel shaft, reducing the loss of transmission efficiency, and prolonging the service life of the gear.
[0036] This application also provides an industrial fan, including the planet wheel limiting mechanism as described above. Specifically, the industrial fan further includes a motor, a fan blade, and a planetary gear transmission assembly. The motor is connected to the fan blade through the planetary gear transmission assembly to drive the fan blade to rotate, which is a prior art. The difference between the industrial fan provided in this application is that: the planetary gear transmission assembly includes the above-mentioned planet wheel limiting mechanism. By providing the above-mentioned planet wheel limiting mechanism connected between the motor and the fan blade, the problem of gear wear caused by the rotation and axial movement of the planet wheel shaft is solved, the loss of transmission efficiency is reduced, and the service life of the industrial fan is prolonged.
[0037] The technical features of the above-described embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity of description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, it should be considered as the scope described in this specification.
[0038] The above-described embodiments only represent several implementation manners of the present invention, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several modifications and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent should be subject to the appended claims.
