[0010] Furthermore, the driving worm gear and the inner shaft are installed through a driving sleeve, and an elastic tightening mechanism is radially arranged between the driving sleeve and the inner shaft. The elastic tightening mechanism is used to achieve relative fixation between the driving sleeve and the inner shaft and when the inner shaft stops rotating due to external force, the driving sleeve and the inner shaft rotate relative to each other.

[0011] Furthermore, the elastic tightening mechanism includes an elastic member and a ball-end limit block, the elastic member is installed in a radially arranged hole of the active shaft sleeve, and the ball-end limit block is arranged at the end of the elastic member and tightened on the outer circumference of the inner shaft.

The character " / " generally indicates an "or" relationship between the associated objects. The following further illustrates the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.

[0040] In order to solve the limitations of the existing technology, this embodiment provides a technical solution. The technical solution of the present utility model is further described below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments.

[0041] The present invention addresses the problem of the related art in performing appearance inspection on cylindrical products, which is that two sets of power equipment are required for both loading and inspection, resulting in high equipment costs. Furthermore, when rejecting unqualified products, the rotating shaft must be individually controlled to stop rotating. Improper operation by the operator can easily result in mechanical injuries, resulting in poor safety. Therefore, the present invention proposes a coaxial, bidirectional rotating gear reduction mechanism. Coaxial, bidirectional means that the inner shaft 500 and the outer shaft 400 are coaxially arranged, but rotate in opposite directions to achieve both loading and inspection functions.

[0042] See attached Figure 1-3A coaxial bidirectional rotating gear reduction mechanism includes a reduction box 300 for connecting to the power output end of an external drive unit and outputting the power as the rotation of an inner shaft 500 and an outer shaft 400 that are coaxially mounted and relatively rotatable. Specifically, the reduction box 300 includes a transmission portion and a housing 302 that supports and positions the transmission portion. Specifically, the transmission portion includes a driving shaft 303 and a driven shaft 304 driven by the driving shaft 303 and rotating in the opposite direction to the driving shaft 303. The driving shaft 303 drives the inner shaft 500 to rotate, and the driven shaft 304 drives the outer shaft 400 to rotate. The reduction box 300 also includes a stand 301 fixed relative to the housing 302 and mounted on the outside thereof. The stand 301 is mounted on the bracket 100. Specifically, an arc-shaped sliding hole 3011 is provided on the stand 301, and an adjustment screw 101 is detachably threaded and mounted on the bracket 100. The adjustment screw 101 passes through the arc-shaped sliding hole 3011 and is used to adjust the position of the stand 301 relative to the bracket 100 along the arc-shaped sliding hole 3011. It is understood that when the stand 301 needs to be adjusted, the adjustment screw 101 is loosened, the stand 301 is rotated along the arc-shaped sliding hole 3011 to a suitable angle, and then the adjustment screw 101 is tightened to achieve the purpose of adjusting the angle of the stand 301. It is understood that the driving unit adopts a motor 200, and the power output shaft of the motor 200 is coaxially connected to the driving shaft 303. Here, the motor 200 drives the driving shaft 303 to rotate, and the driving shaft 303 drives the driven shaft 304 to rotate.

[0043] See attached Figure 4-7The driving worm 305 is relatively fixedly installed on the driving shaft 303, and the driven worm 307 is relatively fixedly installed on the driven shaft 304. The driving worm 305 is meshed with the driving worm wheel 311, and the driven worm 307 is meshed with the driven worm wheel 312. The driving worm wheel 311 is relatively fixedly installed with the inner shaft 500, and the driven worm wheel 312 is relatively fixedly installed with the outer shaft 400. It can be understood here that the driving shaft 303 drives the inner shaft 500 to rotate through the meshing of the driving worm 305 and the driving worm wheel 311, and the driven shaft 304 drives the outer shaft 400 to rotate through the driven worm 307 and the driven worm wheel 312, and the driving shaft 303 and the driven shaft 304 rotate in opposite directions, thereby achieving opposite rotation directions of the inner shaft 500 and the outer shaft 400. Specifically, the driving worm gear 311 and the inner shaft 500 are installed through the driving sleeve 306. It can be understood here that the driving sleeve 306 and the inner shaft 500 are fixedly installed, the driving worm gear 311 and the driving sleeve 306 are fixedly installed, and an elastic tightening mechanism is radially arranged between the driving sleeve 306 and the inner shaft 500. The elastic tightening mechanism is used to achieve relative fixation between the driving sleeve 306 and the inner shaft 500 and when the inner shaft 500 is stopped by external force, the driving sleeve 306 and the inner shaft 500 rotate relative to each other. Specifically, the elastic tightening mechanism includes an elastic member and a ball-end limit block. The elastic member is installed in a radially arranged hole of the active shaft sleeve 306. The ball-end limit block is arranged at the end of the elastic member and is tightened on the outer circumference of the inner shaft 500. It can be understood here that the elastic member is a spring, and the ball-end limit block can be a sphere or other mechanism with a spherical end. When the inner shaft 500 is not subjected to external force, the ball-end limit block is tightened on the outer circumference of the inner shaft 500 under the action of the spring, so that the inner shaft 500 and the active shaft sleeve 306 rotate synchronously. When the inner shaft 500 receives external force, the active shaft 303 does not stop, so the spring is compressed, and the ball-end limit block is in sliding contact with the outer circumference of the inner shaft 500, so that the inner shaft 500 stops rotating coaxially, and the outer shaft 400 still rotates, and the appearance of the product is re-inspected. The driven shaft sleeve 308 is installed on the outer shaft 400. The driven shaft sleeve 306 is rotatably installed with the housing 302. The tail end of the inner shaft 500 is rotatably installed with the housing 302. The rotational installation here can be achieved through bearings. The driving gear 309 is relatively fixedly installed at the end of the driving shaft 303, and the driven gear 310 is relatively fixedly installed at the end of the driven shaft 304. The driving gear 309 and the driven gear 310 are meshed and installed. The purpose of this setting is to achieve opposite rotation directions of the driving shaft 303 and the driven shaft 304 to adapt to the working conditions of opposite rotation directions required for feeding and testing. It should be noted here that the number of teeth of the driving gear 309 and the driven gear 310 are different, and the speed ratio of each component is motor: inner shaft: outer shaft = 1:1.5:3. By setting the speed ratio of each component, feeding and testing can be better achieved.

[0044] When the mechanism of the present invention is used to perform product feeding inspection, the motor 200 rotates, driving the active shaft 303 to rotate. The active shaft 303 meshes with the active gear 309 and the driven gear 310 to realize the driven shaft 304 to rotate in the opposite direction. The active shaft 303 meshes with the active worm gear 311 and the active worm 305 to realize the rotation of the inner shaft 500. The driven shaft 304 meshes with the driven worm gear 312 and the driven worm 307 to realize the rotation of the outer shaft 400, thereby realizing the coaxial but bidirectional rotation of the inner shaft 500 and the outer shaft 400. When unqualified products are found, manual force is applied to the inner shaft 500 to stop the inner shaft 500. At this time, the outer shaft 400 is still rotating, and the suspected unqualified products are rotated for re-inspection. If they are indeed unqualified products, they can be manually removed, thereby avoiding the accidental injury caused by the simultaneous rotation of the inner shaft 500 and the outer shaft 400, which not only reduces costs but also improves inspection efficiency.

[0045] The above description of the disclosed embodiments will enable one skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to one skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments shown herein but is intended to conform to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.

[0046] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
