In precision transmission systems, it is necessary to ensure that there is no backlash to eliminate impact vibration during the meshing process and improve transmission accuracy. In actual processing, due to machining errors, installation errors and temperature changes, a certain amount of backlash will be left on the non-machined surface of the gear to prevent the gear from getting stuck. In order to eliminate the backlash, the gear tooth thickness is often adjusted to ensure it. However, this requires high precision in gear machining and housing machining, and the required cost is huge, making it difficult to meet actual requirements.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to have a flexible zero-backlash transmission gear pair device with strong design practicality, simple structure, and easy installation, with adjustable stiffness. Utility Model Content

[0020] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] 1. Please refer to Figure 1-4The utility model provides a technical solution: a flexible zero-backlash transmission gear pair device with adjustable stiffness, including a gear shaft 3, a gear 1 meshingly connected to both sides of the gear shaft 3, a gear 2 2 provided on one side of the gear 1, a gear shaft 2 11 meshingly connected to one side of the gear 1, a fastener provided on one side of the gear 2, a screw 6 provided on one side of the fastener, a spring 8 provided on the surface of the screw 6, a gasket 7 provided on the surface of the screw 6, a cotter pin 10 provided on the surface of the screw 6, a nut 9 threadedly connected to the surface of the screw 6, and a gear 1. It is the main drive gear 1, gear two 2 is the anti-backlash gear 2, the fasteners include a step pin 4 and a threaded pin 5, the step pin 4 is fixed to the inside of one of the anti-backlash gears 2, the threaded pin 5 passes through the anti-backlash gear 2 on the other side and the main drive gear 1 and is threadedly connected with its internal thread, the surface of the threaded pin 5 is threadedly connected with a nut two 12, the gear shaft two 11 is the input gear shaft 11, the gear shaft one 3 is the output gear shaft 11, wherein the input gear shaft 11 is meshed with the main drive gear 1 fixed with the internal and step pin 4, and the spring 8 is a butterfly spring 8.

[0022] Specifically, the main transmission gear 1 and the anti-backlash gear 2 have exactly the same tooth parameters. During processing, a certain processing method is used to process the main transmission gear 1 and the anti-backlash gear 2 at the same time to ensure that the tooth data are completely consistent. The main transmission gear 1 and the anti-backlash gear 2 have corresponding holes at the end surfaces to facilitate the installation of the threaded pin 5. The end surface of the anti-backlash gear 2 is also provided with a step pin hole for installing the step pin 4. During assembly, the anti-backlash gear 2 is installed on the main transmission gear through the stopper. The main transmission gear 1 and the anti-backlash gear 2 are installed on the output gear shaft 3. The main transmission gear 1 and the anti-backlash gear 2 are simultaneously Engage with the gear on the input gear shaft 11, and install the threaded pin 5 through the through-hole of the anti-backlash gear to the main transmission gear. After installation, the nut 12 can be screwed on the back of the main transmission gear to prevent it from loosening. The step pin 4 is installed on the anti-backlash gear. At the same time, adjust and rotate the anti-backlash gear to ensure that the threaded pin and the step pin do not interfere with the through-hole to ensure the adjustment space margin. After the assembly is completed, several groups of butterfly springs 8 and gaskets 7 are installed on the screw 6. The screw passes through the threaded pin 5 and the step pin 4. The inner hole of the step pin 4 is threaded to tighten the screw 6. The spring 8 is compressed by rotating the screw 6 to produce The butterfly spring 8 generates reverse tension and rotational torque, causing the anti-backlash gear 2 to rotate around the axis in the gear reverse direction and generate a relative rotation angle with the main transmission gear 1, thereby achieving the effect of eliminating tooth clearance. After calculating the butterfly spring compression amount required to meet the transmission conditions, tighten the screw. When the compression amount is reached, tighten the nut 9 and insert the cotter pin 10 to prevent loosening to ensure the stability of the anti-backlash. During actual operation, the two gear angles are misaligned. When rotating forward, the working surface of the main transmission gear 1 and the gear working surface of the input gear shaft 11 are meshed, and the driving gear 1 and the input gear There is a gap between the non-working surfaces of the gears on shaft 11, but the elastic force of the spring 8 ensures that the side clearance between the non-working surface of the anti-backlash gear 2 and the non-working surface of the gear on the input gear shaft 11 is zero. When the gear pair is subjected to a reverse impact during transmission, the non-working surface of the anti-backlash gear 2 is engaged with the non-working surface of the gear on the input gear shaft 11 to ensure the smoothness of the transmission. When this flexible transmission device is subjected to a reverse impact on the gear box, the non-working surface of the anti-backlash gear 2 and the main drive gear 1 produce a flexible impact due to the action of the spring 8, which slows down the reverse impact and protects the gear box transmission device well.
