Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of worms, in particular to a novel worm shaft structure. Background Art
[0002] Nowadays, the worm shaft often has only one worm tooth structure, and the worm tooth structure is often integrated with the shaft body. With long-term operation, the worm tooth structure will continue to wear. Once it can no longer transmit normally with the worm wheel, the worm shaft as a whole can only be scrapped, which will result in a huge waste of materials. Moreover, since the existing worm shaft has only one worm tooth structure, the transmission ratio between it and the worm wheel is also fixed. When the transmission ratio needs to be changed, the worm shaft and worm wheel can only be replaced as a whole, which will greatly increase the cost. Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, it is particularly important to design a new worm shaft structure. Summary of the Invention

During operation, the corresponding worm gear can be selected for transmission according to the required transmission ratio. Moreover, once one of the worm gears is worn and cannot transmit, the other worm gear can be used to continue working, thereby increasing practical performance.
[0004] In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the utility model provides a new worm shaft structure, which is characterized in that it includes a shaft body and a first worm gear structure, the first worm gear structure is adjustably mounted on the shaft body, the first worm gear structure is composed of a cover body, a first mounting part, a worm gear part and a second mounting part connected together from left to right, the first mounting part and the second mounting part are both fixed to the shaft body by bolts, a threaded connection hole for connecting the bolts is provided on the shaft body, an elastic positioning mechanism is also provided between the first mounting part and the shaft body, the shaft body is also connected to a second worm gear through a keyway structure, the second worm gear can be blocked by the cover body, and the end of the shaft body extending out of the cover body is also connected to a tooth transmission part, and the tooth transmission part is integrated with the shaft body.
[0005] Further: Four threaded connection holes are provided on the shaft from left to right, and the four threaded connection holes are arranged in a straight line. The four first threaded connection holes are respectively the first threaded connection hole, the second threaded connection hole, the third threaded connection hole and the fourth threaded connection hole from left to right.

When the first mounting part and the second mounting part are connected to the first threaded connection hole and the third first threaded connection hole, the cover body is sleeved on the outside of the second worm gear and aligned to block it. When the first mounting part and the second mounting part are connected to the second threaded connection hole and the fourth threaded connection hole, the second worm gear is exposed on the outside of the cover body.
[0006] Furthermore: the elastic positioning mechanism includes a hemispherical slot opened on the outer wall of the shaft body, a groove opened on the inner wall of the first mounting part, a spherical clamp and a spring.
