AI Technical Summary
Existing thin-walled cup-shaped flexible gears have relatively low load-bearing capacity and large axial dimensions and volume, making it difficult to improve load-bearing capacity and service life under the condition of fixed gear parameters and cup diameter.
A thin-walled cup-shaped flex wheel structure is designed, with the output connection flange and the cup bottom connected by a semi-circular arc to form a semi-circular cup bottom. The dimensional relationship between the wave generator mounting port, the transmission gear and the output connection flange is adjusted to optimize the flex wheel structure.
With the same gear parameters and cup diameter, reducing the axial length and volume by about 45% can increase the load-bearing capacity by 60-80% and extend the service life.

[0002] Harmonic reducer is a kind of thin-walled flexible wheel elastic deformation for motion or power transmission reducer, with its simple structure, few parts, small volume, high transmission precision, large transmission ratio and other characteristics and is widely applied.
[0003] Harmonic reducer is mainly composed of thin-walled flexible wheel, rigid wheel and wave generator three basic components. The transmission of motion or power of harmonic reducer is under the action of wave generator, forces thin-walled flexible wheel to produce elastic deformation constantly, and achieves the purpose of transmission by interacting with rigid wheel. Thin-walled flexible wheel is the lowest strength part in harmonic reducer, and the volume and carrying capacity of harmonic reducer are mainly determined by the volume and carrying capacity of thin-walled flexible wheel.
[0004] In the current harmonic reducer, thin-walled cup type flexible wheel is very common. However, since the cup bottom of the current thin-walled cup type flexible wheel is mostly ordinary flat bottom structure, the inner side of cup bottom output connecting flange is flush with thin-walled cup bottom, and the outer side protrudes towards cup bottom. This kind of thin-walled cup type flexible wheel has the disadvantages of smaller carrying capacity, larger axial size and volume. Specifically, under the condition of certain gear parameters, cup diameter, axial size and volume, its carrying capacity is smaller. And under the condition of certain gear parameters and cup diameter, in order to improve its carrying capacity and service life, its axial size and volume must be increased.
[0005] Therefore, the prior art still has deficiencies and needs to be further improved. SUMMARY
[0006] The utility model discloses a kind of thin-walled cup type flexible wheel structures. Under the condition of same gear parameters, cup diameter and carrying capacity, it has smaller axial size and volume, or under the condition of completely same gear parameters, cup diameter, axial size and volume, it has higher carrying capacity and service life, so as to overcome the deficiencies of prior art.
[0007] The technical scheme of the utility model discloses a kind of thin-walled cup type flexible wheel structures, including thin-walled cup body, the opening end of the thin-walled cup body is input end, the opening of input end is wave generator installation mouth, and the outer circle of wave generator installation mouth is equipped with transmission gear;The cup bottom of the thin-walled cup body is output end, and output end is equipped with output connecting flange, and output connecting flange is connected with thin-walled cup body by "semicircular" arc, forms "semicircular" cup bottom, and "semicircular" cup bottom protrudes towards cup outside, and is substantially flush with the outer side of output connecting flange.
[0008] In the thin-wall cup type flexspline structure, the depth B of the wave generator mounting port and the tooth width b of the transmission gear have a relationship of B=(1.05-1.12)b.
[0009] In the thin-wall cup type flexspline structure, the diameter d of the output connecting flange and the diameter D of the wave generator mounting port have a relationship of d=(0.56-0.64)D.
[0010] In the thin-wall cup type flexspline structure, the radius r of the semicircular cup bottom and the tooth width b of the transmission gear have a relationship of r=(0.38-0.46)b.
[0011] The thin-wall cup type flexspline structure has the advantages that, compared with the prior art, according to the flexible gear thin shell theory and finite element simulation analysis and calculation, the axial length and volume of the thin-wall cup type flexspline are greatly reduced, and can be reduced to about 45% of the original axial length and volume or even smaller.
[0012] 1. In the case of the same gear parameters, cup diameter and rated load, the axial length and volume of the thin-wall cup type flexspline are greatly reduced, and can be reduced to about 45% of the original axial length and volume or even smaller.
[0013] 2. In the case of the same gear parameters, cup diameter, axial size and volume, the carrying capacity of the thin-wall cup type flexspline is increased by 60-80% or even higher than the original, and the service life is greatly improved. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
