[0021] In order to make the purpose, content and advantages of the present invention more clear, the specific implementation methods of the present invention are further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, the device for forcibly and automatically eliminating gear transmission clearance in this embodiment includes: a power input shaft, an intermediate shaft, a power gear Z11, a gear Z22, a gear Z33, a gear Z44, an elastic torsion shaft 6, a sliding spline gear Zd7, a gear Zc8, a gear Zb9, and a gear Za10; the power gear Z11 and the gear Za10 are mounted on the power input shaft, the gear Z22 and the gear Z33 are mounted on the intermediate shaft, the left end of the elastic torsion shaft 6 is spline-connected to the sliding spline gear Zd7, the right end of the elastic torsion shaft 6 is integrally connected to the shaft of the gear Z44, and the shaft of the gear Z44 serves as the power output shaft; the gear Za10 is meshed with the sliding spline gear Zd7 through the gears Zb9 and Zc8, the power gear Z11 is meshed with the gear Z22, and the gear Z33 is meshed with the gear Z44.

[0023] The right end of the elastic torsion shaft 6 is connected to the shaft of the gear Z44 through the end face flat key 5.

[0024] The sliding spline gear Zd7 is slidingly arranged on the spline.

[0025] Gear Zc8 and gear Zb9 are duplex gears, gear Za10 meshes with gear Zb9, and gear Zc8 meshes with sliding spline gear Zd7.

[0026] The duplex gears are arranged in an over-gear manner relative to the intermediate shaft.

[0027] The transmission ratios of the power gear Z11, gear Z22, gear Z33, and gear Z44 are the same as the transmission ratios of the sliding spline gear Zd7, gear Zc8, gear Zb9, and gear Za10.

[0028] When installing the elastic torsion shaft 6, first connect the right end of the elastic torsion shaft 6 to gear Z44, then connect the sliding spline gear Zd7 to the left end of the elastic torsion shaft 6. When installing the sliding spline gear Zd7 and the elastic torsion shaft 6, twist the left end of the elastic torsion shaft 6 by 3°-15° relative to the right end of the elastic torsion shaft 6 to generate internal torsion. The left end of the elastic torsion shaft 6 is then mated with the keyway of the sliding spline gear Zd7. This eliminates the meshing clearance between the gears due to the torsional force of the elastic torsion shaft 6.

[0029] The elastic torsion shaft 6 generates torsional moments in different directions, which cause the gears at both ends of the elastic torsion shaft 6 to tend to rotate when the power input shaft is stationary.

[0030] The torsional forces of the sliding spline gears Zd7, Zc8, Zb9, and Za10 and the torsional forces of the power gears Z11, Z22, Z33, and Z44 are all transmitted to the power input shaft. Gear Za10 and the power gear Z11 are fixed on the power input shaft at the same time, so there is an internal rotational force that can only make the gear teeth close together and not move, thus achieving the purpose of eliminating the gap.

[0031] In this embodiment, when the sliding spline gear Zd7 is engaged with the gear Zc8, the gear Zc8 is fixed in advance. After the sliding spline gear Zd7 is disengaged from the gear Zc8, it is twisted 2 to 8 teeth and then meshed with the gear Zc8. This generates a rotational trend in the entire transmission chain, making the gear teeth fit tightly and eliminating meshing clearance.

[0032] The utility model improves the transmission rigidity of the entire transmission chain through strong gapless transmission, reduces machine vibration, overcomes the hysteresis phenomenon of reverse feed, and improves the processing accuracy of machine tools. For example, when used in medium-sized sawing equipment, it can be stopped and restarted at will, and since there is no gear meshing gap, it reduces damage to the tool.

[0033] This utility model utilizes a pre-torsional elastic torsion shaft to pre-apply internal torsional force between the power transmission gears Z1, Z2, Z3, and Z4 and the clearance-eliminating gears Za, Zb, Zc, and Zd in the transmission chain, ensuring that the teeth of all gears in the entire transmission chain are always tightly meshed. This method eliminates gear backlash that occurs during gear assembly and after wear, improving transmission stiffness, stability, and accuracy.

[0034] As can be seen from the above technical solution, the elastic torsion shaft employed in this utility model generates a strong backlash elimination force, resulting in reliable performance and suitable for eliminating backlash in gears of medium-to-large equipment. In practical applications, eliminating backlash significantly improves mechanical transmission performance and reduces the risk of tool damage. In summary, this utility model provides an efficient and stable backlash elimination method for the gear transmission field, promising broad application prospects.

[0035] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
