Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of reducers, and specifically relates to a reducer for solar thermal power generation. Background Art

[0002] A worm gear reducer is a power transmission mechanism that uses a gear speed converter to reduce the rotational speed of an electric motor to the desired speed, thereby generating a high torque. Reducers are widely used in mechanisms that transmit power and motion. They can be found in the transmission systems of various machines, from ships, automobiles, and motorcycles, to heavy construction machinery, processing equipment and automated production equipment used in the mechanical industry, to everyday household appliances and clocks. They are used in applications ranging from high-power transmission to small loads and precise angular transmission. In industrial applications, reducers can both reduce speed and increase torque. Therefore, they are widely used in speed-torque conversion equipment, such as photovoltaic power generation equipment. In the prior art, for example, a Chinese patent for a worm gear reducer for photovoltaic equipment, with announcement number CN218408463U, solves the problem that the viscosity of the lubricating oil inside the reducer may continue to increase due to the spread of photovoltaic heat, thereby affecting the lubrication effect by arranging a cooling fan on the top of the worm gear reducer. However, a disadvantage is that the heat is dispersed inside the reducer when the reducer is working. Arranging a cooling fan on the top of the reducer to dissipate heat will result in a weak heat dissipation effect, and in severe cases, it may even affect the working performance of the reducer.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The following describes the specific embodiments of the present invention in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings so that those skilled in the art can more clearly understand how to practice the present invention. Although the present invention is described in conjunction with its preferred specific embodiments, these embodiments are only illustrative, not limiting, of the scope of the present invention.

[0020] Specific embodiment 1: Please refer to Figure 1-3 A reducer for solar thermal power generation, comprising: a box cover (not shown), a box body 1, a reduction mechanism 2, a heat collection component and a plurality of bearings. The box cover is arranged on the box body 1 to seal the inner cavity of the box body 1. The reduction mechanism 2 and the heat collection component are both arranged on the inner side of the box body 1. The heat collection component is used to collect the heat inside the box body 1 and the heat generated by the reduction mechanism 2 during operation and dissipate the heat in a centralized manner. The reducer has the advantages of good heat dissipation effect and stable working performance.

[0021] Specifically, the box body 1 has a horseshoe-shaped structure, and a flow channel 14 for heat collection is opened inside its bottom wall. The outlet 11 and the inlet 12 of the flow channel 14 are both located on the inner side of the box body 1; a heat dissipation fin group 13 is also provided at the right end of the box body 1.

[0022] In one embodiment, the flow channel 14 has a U-shaped structure; in order to improve the heat collection capacity, the flow channel 14 is not limited to the above-mentioned U-shaped structure, but can also be a serpentine structure. The length of the flow channel 14 is proportional to the heat collection capacity of the flow channel 14.

[0023] The reduction mechanism 2 includes a worm wheel 21, a worm 22, a large gear 23, a pinion 24, an input shaft 25 and an output shaft (not shown in the figure). The worm wheel 21 and the worm 22 are meshed and matched and arranged on the inner side of the housing 1. The large gear 23 is fixedly sleeved on the rear end of the worm 22 and the large gear 23 is meshed with the pinion 24. The front end of the input shaft 25 is fixedly connected to the axis of the pinion 24, and the rear end extends to the outside of the housing 1; the output shaft is fixedly connected to the axis of the worm wheel 21.

[0024] The heat collection assembly includes a heat collection box 3, a spacer 4, a connecting shaft 5 and a spiral blade 6. The heat collection box 3 is used to load the cooling liquid. The heat collection box 3 is arranged at the rear inside the box body 1 and corresponds to the position of the heat dissipation fin group 13. At the same time, the length of the heat dissipation fin group 13 is adapted to the length of the heat collection box 3. The outlet 11 and the inlet 12 of the flow channel 14 are both located inside the heat collection box 3. The spacer 4 is arranged inside the heat collection box 3 to divide the space inside the heat collection box 3 into two parts, namely, a confluence chamber 32 and a diversion chamber 33. The confluence chamber 32 is connected to the outlet 11, and the diversion chamber 33 is connected to the inlet 12.

[0025] The spacer 4 is provided with a through hole 41, and the through hole 41 is provided to enable the confluence bin 32 to be connected with the diversion bin 33; the connecting shaft 5 is arranged on the inner side of the heat collecting box 3 through a bearing, wherein the head end of the connecting shaft 5 is fixedly connected to the axis of the pinion 24, and the tail end is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the heat collecting box 3. At the same time, the connecting shaft 5 and the through hole 41 are coaxially arranged, and the spiral blade 6 is arranged on the outer periphery of the connecting shaft 5 and the spiral blade 6 is located on the inner side of the through hole 41; when the connecting shaft 5 is driven by an external motor, the connecting shaft 5 rotates synchronously while the reduction mechanism 2 is working, driving the spiral blade 6 to rotate, and the spiral blade 6 inputs the coolant in the confluence bin 32 into the diversion bin 33, so that the coolant can flow in the flow channel 14, collect the heat inside the box body 1 and the heat generated when the reduction mechanism 2 is working, and return to the confluence bin 32, completing a cycle. The heat of the reducer is concentrated in the heat collecting box 3 and dissipated outward through the heat dissipation fin group 13.

[0026] The head end of the connecting shaft 5 is fixedly connected to the axis of the pinion 24. When the reduction mechanism 2 is working, the input shaft 25 drives the pinion 24 to rotate, thereby driving the connecting shaft 5 to rotate synchronously; the spiral blade 6 generates axial thrust when rotating with the connecting shaft 5 in the through hole 41, forcing the coolant to flow from the confluence chamber 32 through the flow channel 14 to the diversion chamber 33, forming a forced circulation power.

[0027] The outer diameter of the spiral blade 6 is adapted to the inner diameter of the through hole 41 .

[0028] In one embodiment, a sealing groove 31 is further provided at the top end of the heat collecting box 3 , and a sealing strip is provided in the sealing groove 31 . When the box cover is placed on the box body 1 , the box cover squeezes the sealing strip to improve the sealing performance of the inner cavity of the heat collecting box 3 .

[0029] In one embodiment, the volume of the confluence chamber 32 is greater than the volume of the diversion chamber 33 , which can improve the heat collection and heat dissipation capabilities of the reducer.

[0030] Through this technical solution, a flow channel is opened inside the bottom wall of the box, a confluence bin and a diversion bin are set on the inside of the box, the confluence bin and the diversion bin are connected through the flow channel, and spiral blades for promoting the flow of liquid are set between the confluence bin and the diversion bin. When the reducer is working, its internal heat can be concentrated in the confluence bin and the diversion bin for centralized heat dissipation, which can improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the reducer while ensuring the stability of the reducer's operation.

[0031] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
