[0002] A connecting shaft is a cylindrical object that passes between bearings, wheels, or gears. A shaft is a mechanical component that supports rotating parts and rotates with them to transmit motion, torque, or bending moment. It is typically a metal rod, and each section can have different diameters.

[0003] Connecting shafts are widely used. For example, rail vehicles require many connecting shafts to install parts, such as reflectors, vent baffles, ventilation windows, etc. However, these parts installed through connecting shafts can rotate freely and are difficult to stay at a specific angle. Usually, they need to be locked with bolts to stay at a specific angle. However, after long-term use or experiencing vibration during rail vehicle operation, the locking bolts will loosen, causing the parts on the connecting shaft to move and unable to maintain the original specific angle.

[0022] Reference Figure 1-3 A connecting shaft for convenient angle adjustment of a rail vehicle comprises: a connecting shaft body 1, an angle adjustment end cover structure is installed at one end of the connecting shaft body 1, an angle adjustment fixing structure is movably installed on the outside of the connecting shaft body 1, and the angle adjustment fixing structure can be engaged with the angle adjustment end cover structure, and an auxiliary fixing structure is installed on the outside of the other end of the connecting shaft body 1; the angle adjustment end cover structure comprises: a fixed end cover 2 and an angle adjustment engaging tooth 3; the fixed end cover 2 is fixedly installed at one end of the connecting shaft body 1, the angle adjustment engaging tooth 3 is installed on the inner side of the fixed end cover 2, a handle 10 is provided on the outer side of the fixed end cover 2, and a limit baffle 11 is provided at the tail end of the connecting shaft body 1.

[0023] Specifically, the angle adjustment fixing structure includes: an angle adjustment fixing tube 4, an angle adjustment fixing tooth 5, a return spring 6 and an angle adjustment fixing seat 7; the angle adjustment fixing tube 4 is movably sleeved on the outside of the connecting shaft body 1, the angle adjustment fixing tooth 5 is installed on the inside of the angle adjustment fixing tube 4, and the angle adjustment fixing tooth 5 and the angle adjustment engaging tooth 3 are engaged with each other, and the two ends of the return spring 6 are respectively installed on the inner side of the angle adjustment fixing tube 4 and the inner side of the fixed end cover 2 through a small turntable, and the angle adjustment fixing seat 7 is installed on the outside of the angle adjustment fixing tube 4, the end face angle of each tooth of the angle adjustment engaging tooth 3 is fifteen degrees, and the interval between every two adjacent teeth of the angle adjustment engaging tooth 3 is fifteen degrees.

[0024] Specifically, the auxiliary fixing structure includes: a sliding tube 8 and a sliding fixing seat 9; the sliding tube 8 is movably installed on the outside of the connecting shaft body 1, and the sliding fixing seat 9 is installed on the outside of the sliding tube 8. The end face angle of each tooth of the angle adjustment fixing tooth 5 is fifteen degrees, and the interval between every two adjacent teeth of the angle adjustment fixing tooth 5 is fifteen degrees.

[0025] Working principle: The utility model is installed inside a rail vehicle and can connect parts that need to be rotated with the vehicle body, such as the vent baffle of a rail vehicle. The operator first installs the angle adjustment fixing seat 7 and the sliding fixing seat 9 on the vehicle body at the vent. At this time, the vent baffle and the connecting shaft body 1 are connected. When the angle of the vent baffle needs to be adjusted, the operator pulls the fixed end cover 2 through the handle 10, and the fixed end cover 2 drives the connecting shaft body 1 to translate inside the angle adjustment fixing tube 4 and the sliding tube 8 until the limit baffle 11 contacts the sliding tube 8. At this time, the angle adjustment engaging teeth 3 and the angle adjustment fixing teeth 5 are disengaged, and the return spring 6 is in a stretched state. The operator rotates the fixed end cover 2 and the connecting shaft body 1 through the handle 10. Since small turntables are provided at both ends of the return spring 6, the return spring 6 will not rotate with the fixed end cover 2. When the vent baffle is driven by the connecting shaft body 1 and rotates to the required angle, the operator slowly releases his hand, and the return spring 6 resets and contracts, allowing the angle adjustment engaging teeth 3 and the angle adjustment fixing teeth 5 to be engaged and fixed. At this time, the angle adjustment is completed.

[0026] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
