Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of photothermal rotary high-precision reducer parts, and more specifically, to a central shaft split modular structure for a photothermal reducer. Background Art
[0002] The main structural parts of the photothermal rotary high-precision reducer are the housing and gear structure, and the mounting flange derived from the gear is usually integral.
[0003] At present, there are several disadvantages about the reducer mounting flange:
[0004] 1. Since the installation dimensions of the reducer and equipment are usually determined based on the project, and each project is different, the dimensions are non-standard, and the product needs to be redesigned and re-molded, which greatly increases the manufacturing cost.
[0005] 2. Due to the limitations of gear hobbing equipment, the use of an integral structure places high demands on the equipment's appearance.
[0006] 3. Based on the second question, this field usually adopts a split structure and uses multiple bolts (12-24) to fix the gear. While reducing the demand for gear processing equipment, there is a problem of increased product structural materials and reduced overall torque resistance of the gear and flange plate.
[0007] In view of this, we propose a split-axis modular structure for photothermal reducers. Utility Model Content
[0008] 1. Technical problems to be solved
[0009] The purpose of the present utility model is to provide a split modular structure of a central shaft for a photothermal reducer to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.
[0010] 2. Technical solution
[0011] A split-shaft modular structure for a photothermal reducer includes a gear shaft and a flange plate. Mounting holes are reserved in the middle of the gear shaft and the flange plate. Multiple sets of hexagon socket screws are installed along the mounting holes in the flange plate to axially lock the gear shaft and the flange plate.
[0012] A number of pins are evenly distributed on the surface of the flange plate at positions outside the mounting holes. The pins are embedded into the interior of the gear shaft along the flange plate and fit tightly with the gear shaft to disperse the torque.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the number of the hexagon socket screws in each group is set to two, and the two hexagon socket screws are symmetrically distributed along one side of the mounting hole.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment, a screw hole 1 and a pin hole 1 are respectively provided on the surface of the flange plate at positions corresponding to the hexagon socket screw and the pin. The screw hole 1 is a threaded hole, and the hexagon socket screw is threadedly engaged with the screw hole 1. The pin passes through the pin hole 1 and is embedded in the gear shaft to complete the engagement.
[0015] In a preferred embodiment, a screw hole 2 is provided on the end surface of the gear shaft at a position corresponding to the position of the hexagon socket screw, and a pin hole 2 is provided on the end surface of the gear shaft at a position corresponding to the position of the pin. The pin hole 2 is a threaded hole, and the hexagon socket screw is threadedly matched with the screw hole 2. The pin passes through the pin hole 1 and is embedded in the pin hole 2 to complete the assembly.
[0016] In a preferred embodiment, the sides of the mounting hole are protruded and thickened near screw hole 2 and pin hole 2 to form reinforced edges, thereby reinforcing the locations where the hexagon socket screws and pins are installed, and shrinking margins are provided at other locations.
[0017] In a preferred embodiment, the position where the end face of the gear shaft and the flange plate fit together is recessed inward to form a conical positioning groove, and the position of the flange plate corresponding to the positioning groove is protruded outward to form a conical positioning block. The positioning block is embedded in the positioning groove for assembly to achieve a self-positioning assembly effect and will not shift during the assembly process.
[0018] In a preferred embodiment, a plurality of reducer connection holes are evenly distributed in a circular array at the outer edge of the flange plate for connecting the reducer to the integral structure consisting of the gear shaft and the flange plate.
[0019] 3. Beneficial effects
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are:
[0021] 1. The utility model adopts a split structure of the gear shaft and the flange plate for production, so the processing of the gear will not be limited by the size of the flange plate, and flange plates of different specifications can be replaced according to the installation dimensions in the actual production process.
[0022] 2. In this application, only a small number of hexagon socket screws are needed to fix the gear shaft and flange plate. At the same time, installation positions are reserved during the shape design, and reinforced edges are set to strengthen the positions for installing hexagon socket screws and pins. The remaining parts are shrunk. Compared with the conventional split structure, materials are saved. In this application, the number of bolts used is only the conventional one plate, which reduces the cost of spare parts and saves casting materials.

[0036] See also Figure 1-8 ,The utility model provides a technical solution:
[0037] A modular structure of a split central shaft for a photothermal reducer, comprising a gear shaft 1 and a flange plate 2. Mounting holes 7 are reserved in the middle of the gear shaft 1 and the flange plate 2. The gear shaft 1 and the flange plate 2 are split structures. Therefore, when processing the gear shaft 1, there is no restriction due to the different sizes of the flange plate 2. The gear shaft 1 and the flange plate 2 form a whole after assembly. Please refer to Figure 2 Specifically, multiple groups of hexagon socket screws 3 are installed along the mounting hole of the flange plate 2. The number of hexagon socket screws 3 in each group is set to two. The two hexagon socket screws 3 are symmetrically distributed along one side of the mounting hole to axially lock the gear shaft 1 and the flange plate 2; a number of pins 4 are evenly distributed on the surface of the flange plate 2 outside the mounting hole. The pins 4 are embedded into the interior of the gear shaft 1 along the flange plate 2 and fit tightly with the gear shaft 1 to disperse the torque. A number of reducer connection holes 8 are evenly distributed in a circular array on the outer edge of the flange plate 2 to connect the overall structure composed of the gear shaft 1 and the flange plate 2 to the reducer.
[0038] Please refer to the instruction manual Figure 3-4 The assembly method of the gear shaft 1 and the flange plate 2 in this embodiment is specifically described. A screw hole 5 and a pin hole 6 are respectively provided on the surface of the flange plate 2 at positions corresponding to the hexagon socket screw 3 and the pin 4. The screw hole 5 is a threaded hole, and the hexagon socket screw 3 is threadedly engaged with the screw hole 5. The pin 4 passes through the pin hole 6 and is then embedded in the gear shaft 1 to complete the engagement.
[0039] Please refer to the instruction manual Figure 5-6 The assembly method of the gear shaft 1 and the flange plate 2 in this embodiment is specifically described. A second screw hole 9 is provided on the end surface of the gear shaft 1 at a position corresponding to the hexagon socket screw 3. A second pin hole 10 is provided on the end surface of the gear shaft 1 at a position corresponding to the pin 4. The second pin hole 10 is a threaded hole. The hexagon socket screw 3 is threadedly engaged with the second screw hole 9. The pin 4 passes through the first pin hole 6 and is then embedded in the second pin hole 10 to complete the assembly.
[0040] In summary, please refer to the instructions attached Figure 2 、 Figure 7 When assembling the flange plate 2 and the gear shaft 1, the hexagon socket screws 3 are sequentially passed through the screw holes 1-5 on the flange plate 2 and then enter the screw holes 1-5 on the gear shaft 1, and are fixed by threaded engagement, which mainly plays the role of axial locking. In addition, the pins 4 are sequentially passed through the pin holes 1-6 on the flange plate 2 and then inserted into the pin holes 2-10 on the gear shaft 1 to complete the assembly, which is used to disperse the circumferential torque. In this embodiment, only three pins 4 are needed, which are tightly fitted in the gear shaft 1 and the flange plate 2. The overturning and circumferential torque bearing capacity of the split center shaft can reach the strength of the entire center shaft.
[0041] Continuing to refer to the instructions 5-6, the side edges of the mounting holes near the screw holes 2 9 and the pin holes 2 10 are all protruded and thickened to form reinforced edges 11, and the positions for installing the hexagon socket screws 3 and the pins 4 are reinforced, and the remaining positions are shrunk. The traditional structure of using screws evenly distributed is abandoned. Combined with the material mechanical properties of the product, when the product meets the yield strength σs (MPa) ≥ 750, only a small number of screws are used for fixing. In this embodiment, 6 hexagon socket screws 3 are used. At the same time, installation positions are reserved during the appearance design. Only the positions for installing the hexagon socket screws 3 and the pins 4 are reinforced, and the remaining parts are shrunk to save materials.
[0042] Please refer to the instruction manual Figure 8 , the assembly method of the gear shaft 1 and the flange plate 2 in this embodiment is further explained. The position where the end surface of the gear shaft 1 and the flange plate 2 are in contact is recessed inward to form a tapered positioning groove 12, and the position of the flange plate 2 corresponding to the positioning groove 12 is protruded outward to form a tapered positioning block 13. The positioning block 13 is embedded in the positioning groove 12 for assembly. When the flange plate 2 is assembled on the gear shaft 1, the positioning block 13 is inserted into the positioning groove 12 to achieve assembly. The positioning effect is achieved by the taper angle, and it is not easy to cause deviation during the assembly process, which facilitates assembly.
