Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of gearbox technology, and specifically relates to a gearbox sealing structure. Background Technology

[0002] There is a direct relationship between transmission seals and oil pressure. The integrity of the seals directly affects the stability of the oil pressure inside the transmission, and thus affects the normal operation of the transmission.

[0003] The primary function of transmission seals is to prevent lubricating oil leakage and ensure stable internal pressure. Aging, damage, or improper installation of seals can all cause lubricating oil to leak from the transmission, leading to a drop in oil pressure. Specifically, transmission seals include two types: static seals and dynamic seals. Static seals mainly involve sealing pressure and non-pressure areas, while dynamic seals include sealing rotating and reciprocating components.

[0004] When transmission fluid pressure is too low, possible causes include insufficient fluid level in the oil pan, a clogged oil filter, a problem with the oil suction pipe seal, and severe wear of the transmission pump. These issues can all lead to a drop in fluid pressure, thus affecting the normal operation of the transmission.

[0005] Existing sealing structures mostly use individual rubber sealing rings, requiring gaskets to be installed on both sides during assembly, making the assembly process complex; or they use stamped outer ring needle roller bearings with steel sealing rings. This structure is simple to assemble, but the steel sealing ring, the bearing outer ring, and the mating shaft are all small clearance fits, while the bearing outer ring and the bearing housing are interference fits. After press-fitting, the inner diameter shrinks, making the design of the fit relationship of the steel sealing ring more difficult. Moreover, it is currently impossible to verify whether the fit relationship of the steel sealing ring meets the oil pressure control requirements of the gearbox from the design stage. It can only be deduced through whole-machine testing, resulting in a long design verification cycle and high cost. Utility Model Content

[0006] This utility model aims to solve the problems of existing gearbox sealing structures, such as a large number of parts, complex assembly processes, poor structural rigidity, difficulty in designing mating relationships, long design verification cycle, and high cost, and thus provides a gearbox sealing structure.

[0007] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is:

[0008] A gearbox sealing structure includes a pump housing, a rubber sealing ring, a bearing bushing, a drive sprocket, and a stamped outer ring needle roller bearing; the bearing bushing, the stamped outer ring needle roller bearing, and the drive sprocket are sequentially assembled onto the pump housing, and the rubber sealing ring is disposed between the drive sprocket and the bearing bushing, and located outside the stamped outer ring needle roller bearing.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0010] This utility model combines the existing single rubber sealing ring and steel sealing ring stamped outer ring needle roller bearings, and replaces them with a rubber sealing ring stamped outer ring needle roller bearing. It eliminates the need for gaskets, reduces the number of parts, simplifies the assembly process, improves structural rigidity, reduces friction, extends the life of parts, and makes the design of the mating relationship less difficult. It can be completed without the need for subsequent testing and verification, resulting in a short design and selection cycle and low trial and error costs. Attached Figure Description

[0015] The inner circumferential surface of the drive sprocket 4 is provided with a stepped structure that can accommodate the rubber sealing ring 2 and the stamped outer ring needle roller bearing 5.

[0016] The length of the bearing bushing 3 is longer than the sum of the lengths of the rubber sealing ring 2 and the stamped outer ring needle roller bearing 5.

[0017] The fit relationship of the stamped outer ring needle roller bearing 5 is designed based on the boundary conditions of the parts and the interference fit relationship, and the design and selection table of the rubber sealing ring 2 can be consulted, so the fit relationship design is not difficult.
