The drive unit is usually in the form of an electric motor, and the transmission unit typically includes gears, a lead screw, and a lead screw slide. The gears mesh to drive the lead screw to rotate, which in turn drives the lead screw slide to move, causing the piston rod, which is sleeved on the outer surface of the lead screw, to move linearly.
[0004] Existing multi-stage electric linear actuators generate high temperatures due to gear friction during prolonged use. The gears may wear down due to prolonged high-temperature operation under high-compound conditions, which may affect the efficiency of gear transmission and the service life of the electric linear actuator.

It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.
[0023] Please see Figure 1-5The present invention provides an embodiment of a multi-stage electric actuator, comprising a mounting base 1, a mounting base 2 fixed to the side wall of the mounting base 1 by bolts, a mounting base 3 fixed to the side wall of the mounting base 2 by welding, a piston rod 4 inserted into the interior of the mounting base 3, a gear 12 rotatably connected to the side wall of the mounting base 2, a gear 23 rotatably connected to the middle of the mounting base 2, a gear 34 rotatably connected to the side wall of the mounting base 2 near the gear 23, and a slot 9 formed on the side wall of the mounting base 1 near the mounting base 2. A servo motor 5 is fixedly mounted on the side wall of mounting base 2 near mounting base 3. The output end of the servo motor 5 passes through mounting base 2 and is fixed to the side wall of gear 12. Gear 2 13 meshes with gear 12 and gear 3 14 in sequence. A main lead screw 15 is rotatably connected in the middle of mounting base 3. One end of the main lead screw 15 passes through mounting base 3 and mounting base 2 in sequence and is fixed to the side wall of gear 3 14. A lead screw slide 16 is slidably connected inside mounting base 3. The lead screw 15 is connected to the outer surface of the main lead screw 15. The lead screw slide 16 is fixedly connected to one end of the piston rod 4 by welding. When the servo motor 5 is started to drive the gear 12 to rotate, it will drive the gear 13, gear 14 and the main lead screw 15 to rotate in sequence. The main lead screw 15 drives the lead screw slide 16 to slide horizontally inside the mounting base 3, thereby driving the piston rod 4 to move horizontally, thus realizing the horizontal reciprocating traction of the object. The mounting base 11 has a slot 10 inside. Several transverse partitions 11 are fixed on the inner side wall of the slot 10 to increase the... With a large contact area, heat transfer efficiency is improved. The bottom of the slot 210 is filled with lubricating oil 20. When the transmission of gear 12, gear 23 and gear 314 causes the internal temperature of slot 19 to rise, the heat is transferred to the lubricating oil 20 through the mounting base 11 and the transverse partition 11. The lubricating oil 20 has a large specific heat capacity. When the lubricating oil 20 absorbs heat, it can reduce the rate of temperature rise inside slot 19, so that the excess heat is stably dissipated during the slow rise, thereby reducing the extreme high temperature of slot 19 and improving the service life of gear meshing transmission.
[0024] Two mounting ears 6 are symmetrically fixed on the side wall of the mounting base 1 to form an integral structure. The side wall of the mounting ears 6 is provided with threaded holes, which improves the ease of installation of the mounting base 1. A connecting pipe 7 is inserted into the top of the mounting base 1. The connecting pipe 7 passes through the mounting base 1 and is connected to the slot 10. The top of the connecting pipe 7 is threaded with an end cap 8, which improves the ease of adding lubricating oil 20.
[0025] The external dimensions of the main lead screw 15 are adapted to the internal dimensions of the mounting base 3. The piston rod 4 has a slot 3 17 in the middle for the main lead screw 15 to be inserted, which improves the stability of the main lead screw 15's movement.
[0026] A through hole 18 is provided on the inner side wall of slot 2 10 near the top of the transverse partition 11. The through hole 18 is connected to slot 1 9. A permeable membrane 19 is inserted in the middle of the through hole 18. After some of the lubricating oil 20 is vaporized, it enters the interior of slot 1 9 through the through holes 18 and 19, thereby making uniform contact with the surfaces of gear 1 12, gear 2 13 and gear 3 14, lubricating the gears and further improving the stability of the gear transmission.
[0027] Working Principle: When using this multi-stage electric actuator, the operator first connects an external power supply and fixes the mounting ear 6 with bolts to achieve the installation and positioning of the electric actuator. The output end of the piston rod 4 is fixedly connected to the object through a coupling. When the servo motor 5 is started to drive gear 12 to rotate, it sequentially drives gear 13, gear 14 and main lead screw 15 to rotate. The main lead screw 15 drives the lead screw slide 16 to slide horizontally inside the mounting base 3, thereby driving the piston rod 4 to move horizontally, thus achieving horizontal reciprocating traction of the object. When the transmission of gear 12, gear 13 and gear 14 causes the internal temperature of slot 9 to rise, the heat is transferred to the lubricating oil 20 through the mounting base 1 and the transverse partition 11. The lubricating oil 20 has a large specific heat capacity. When the lubricating oil 20 absorbs heat, it can reduce the rate of temperature rise inside slot 9, so that the excess heat is stably dissipated during the slow rise process, thereby reducing the extreme high temperature of slot 9 and improving the service life of the gear meshing transmission.
[0028] Secondly, when the internal temperature of slot 210 rises, some of the lubricating oil 20 vaporizes and enters the interior of slot 19 through through holes 18 and 19, thereby making uniform contact with the surfaces of gear 12, gear 213 and gear 314, lubricating the gears and further improving the stability of the gear transmission.
