[0002] With the acceleration of the electrification process in the construction machinery industry, aerial work vehicles, as a common type of construction machinery, currently use conventional swing cylinders for the left and right swinging of their working baskets, which are driven by hydraulic pressure.

[0003] The hydraulically driven swing cylinder has the problems of unstable oil pressure and slow response speed in actual application. Therefore, a solution of replacing the hydraulic drive with electric drive is proposed to drive the swing cylinder.

[0004] The existing electric-driven swing cylinder combines a motor structure and a gear reduction transmission structure to control the rotation of the output shaft. The output shaft passes through the reduction transmission structure and is connected to the motor structure. A central through hole is opened on the output shaft to connect the working basket. However, since this structure requires a through hole to be opened on the output shaft, the outer diameter of the output shaft is large, and the diameter of the gear connected to the output shaft is also large, which results in a smaller deceleration ratio of the gear reduction transmission structure. When the motor performance is the same, the torque output by the swing cylinder is reduced.

[0005] In view of this, it is necessary to design a pure electric swing cylinder to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0034] In addition, the inner wall of the cylinder body 1 is provided with a transmission tooth 10 corresponding to the inner wall of the quadruple reduction mechanism 3, and the transmission tooth 10 is suitable for engaging the planetary gear 312 in each group of reduction assembly 31. The frameless motor 42 is connected to the inner wall of the cylinder body 1 by an adhesive. The quadruple reduction mechanism 3 includes four groups of reduction assemblies 31, and the first to third groups of reduction assemblies 31 all include planetary gears 312 and sun gears 311.

[0035] In this embodiment, the output shaft 2 used is a solid structure output shaft 2.
