[0005] Further, the two bearings and bearing seat are each equipped with copper pad, the gap of bearing is adjusted by adjusting the length of bushing and the thickness of copper pad.

[0006] Further, the rotor assembly and gear are fixed by hexagonal cooperation connection.

[0007] Further, the copper pad is annular, and the size is matched with the outer ring of bearing.

[0008] Beneficial effects: compared with prior art, the gear locking bearing device of adjustable gap provided by the utility model is reasonable in design, adopts hexagonal cooperation connection, wave spring is used for auxiliary anti-loosening limiting, ensures that the outer ring of bearing is not subjected to axial force while being subjected to shock absorption and noise reduction treatment, and the locking form is firm and reliable and facilitates the adjustment of the gap between bearing and bearing seat. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0009] Fig. 1 It is the whole structure schematic view of the utility model;

[0010] Fig. 2 It is the rotor assembly structure schematic view of the utility model;

[0011] In the diagram: 1-locking nut, 2-gear, 3-wave spring, 4-adjusting washer, 5-bearing, 6-bearing housing, 7-shield, 8-rotor assembly, 9-copper pad. Detailed Implementation

[0012] like Figs. 1-2 As shown, an adjustable clearance gear-locking bearing device includes a locking nut 1, a gear 2, a wave spring 3, an adjusting washer 4, a bearing 5, a bearing housing 6, a bushing 7, a rotor assembly 8, and a copper pad 9. The bearing 5 and the bushing 7 are mounted on the shaft of the rotor assembly 8. The copper pad 9 is installed in the bearing housing 6. The bushing 7 is located between the two bearings 5 ​​and abuts against the inner rings of the two bearings 5. The bushing 7 ensures that there is a gap between the bearing 5 and the bearing housing 6. The copper pad 9 abuts against the outer ring of the bearing 5. During the movement of the bearing 5, the elastic support of the copper pad 9 has a shock-absorbing effect. The adjusting washer 4, the wave spring 3, and the gear 2 are sequentially mounted on the shaft of the rotor assembly 8. The adjusting washer 4 abuts against the bearing 5. The locking nut 1 is locked with the rotor assembly 8 by thread engagement. Since the locking nut 1 is a flared locking method, there is a risk that the thread clearance will increase after the device has been running for a long time. The wave spring 3 has elasticity in the axial direction, which can effectively prevent the thread clearance from increasing.

[0013] Both bearings 5 ​​and bearing housings 6 are provided with copper pads 9. The clearance of bearings 5 ​​is adjusted by adjusting the length of bushing 7 and the thickness of copper pad 9. The rotor assembly 8 and gear 2 are connected and fixed with a hexagonal fit to ensure that gear 2 and rotor assembly 8 rotate synchronously. It can also completely eliminate the clearance between gear 2 and rotor assembly 8, so that gear 2 will not have radial movement when meshing with external gear, effectively avoiding damage to gear 2. The copper pad 9 is annular and its size matches the outer ring of bearing 5, making it easy to install.

[0014] During installation, first, install one bearing 5 and bushing 7 onto the shaft of the rotor assembly 8, so that the bearing 5 abuts against the shoulder end face of the rotor assembly 8. Insert the copper washer 9 into the bearing housing 6. Then, install the rotor assembly 8 with bearing 5 and bushing 7 into the bearing housing 6. Next, install another bearing 5 into the rotor assembly 8 and bearing housing 6. Then, install the adjusting washer 4, wave spring 3, and gear 2 onto the shaft of the rotor assembly 8 in sequence. The adjusting washer 4 abuts against the bearing 5. Use the lock nut 1 to lock it with the threaded engagement of the rotor assembly 8. Use the copper washer 9 and bushing 7 to adjust the gap between the bearing 5 and the bearing housing 6. If the bushing 7 is too long, it can be ground. The copper washer 9 can be of appropriate thickness as needed to ensure the gap between the bearing 5 and the bearing housing 6. After installation, use a tool to enlarge the hole of the lock nut 1 to achieve the purpose of locking and preventing loosening.

[0015] The above merely describes a preferred embodiment of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto, and any skilled person in the art, according to the technical scheme and the inventive concept of the present application, makes equivalent replacement or change within the technical range disclosed by the present application, which should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
