Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of speed reducers, and in particular to a built-in cooling structure for a high-torque speed reducer for injection molding machines. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional injection molding machine screws generally use hydraulic motors as their power source. However, hydraulic motors have drawbacks such as low transmission efficiency, severe noise pollution, high environmental pollution risk, and large space occupation. To overcome these shortcomings, improve equipment performance, and reduce energy consumption and costs, a power system combining a planetary reducer and a servo motor is adopted. This not only significantly improves transmission efficiency and achieves the goal of energy conservation and emission reduction, but also greatly reduces the size of the equipment and improves power transmission capacity.
[0003] However, the use of planetary gearboxes may result in insufficient thermal power, causing the internal temperature of the gearbox to rise, thereby increasing the failure rate of the equipment and reducing its service life. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the above-mentioned problems of existing planetary gear reducers, the aim is to provide a built-in cooling structure for high torque gear reducers of injection molding machines with good cooling effect and reduced failures.
[0005] The specific technical solution is as follows:
[0006] A built-in cooling structure for a high-torque reducer of an injection molding machine is disclosed. The reducer includes an end cover and an internal gear ring coaxially mounted on the end cover. The cooling structure includes a sealing cover, which is an annular structure and coaxially sleeved on the outside of the internal gear ring. A cooling cavity is formed between the sealing cover and the internal gear ring, and the cooling cavity surrounds the outside of the internal gear ring. The sealing cover has a cooling medium inlet and a cooling medium outlet communicating with the cooling cavity.
[0007] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the inner wall of the sealing cover is provided with a first cooling groove on a coaxial ring, and the outer wall of the inner gear ring is provided with a second cooling groove that communicates with the first cooling groove, and the cooling cavity is formed between the second cooling groove and the first cooling groove.
[0008] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, both the bottom of the first cooling tank and the bottom of the second cooling tank are coaxially provided with a plurality of annular heat dissipation fins.
[0009] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, two sealing rings are provided between the sealing cover and the inner toothed ring, with the two sealing rings located on both sides of the cooling cavity.
[0010] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the outer surface of the internal gear ring is provided with two sealing grooves coaxially, and the two sealing rings are respectively disposed in the two sealing grooves.
[0011] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the sealing cap is connected to the end cap.
[0012] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the sealing cap and the end cap are connected by a number of bolts.
[0013] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the bolts are distributed at equal intervals along the circumference of the end cap.
[0014] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the internal gear ring and the end cap are connected by a number of bolts.
[0015] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the cooling medium inlet and the cooling medium outlet are located on opposite sides of the sealing cover.
[0016] The positive effects of the above technical solution compared with the existing technology are:
[0017] (1) When the reducer is working, the coolant (such as water) can be pumped into the cooling chamber through the cooling medium inlet and discharged through the cooling medium outlet. When the coolant flows in the cooling chamber, it will quickly carry away the heat generated inside the reducer, thereby reducing the failure rate of the reducer caused by high temperature and improving the service life of the reducer.
[0018] (2) The bottom of the first cooling tank and the bottom of the second cooling tank of this utility model are both coaxially provided with several annular heat dissipation fins, which increases the heat exchange area with the coolant and improves the cooling effect.
