TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to a transmission technical field, concretely relates to a novel gear and inner hub connecting structure. BACKGROUND
[0002] The transmission gear and inner hub connecting structure is very crucial in the operation of the transmission. The traditional connecting mode includes spline connection, which can ensure the better coaxiality between the gear and the inner hub and can transmit larger torque. In order to adapt to the high performance requirement of the modern transmission, some new connecting structures are constantly emerging, such as the connecting structure through the friction plate type, which can realize the combination and separation of power faster in the shifting process, reduce the impact and improve the shifting quality. Compared with the general transmission, the gear and the inner hub are commonly connected, and the gear and the inner hub are often connected by spline connection, and the spline connection is provided with a snap ring for axial fixation of the inner hub. For compact structure and small radial size of the inner hub, the common scheme is often difficult to meet the connection requirement.
[0003] The application number KR1020160143526 discloses a torque converter hub and oil pump gear of an automatic transmission for realizing the connection structure of the torque converter hub and the oil pump gear of the automatic transmission of the automobile. The structure has a torque converter hub, and the outer periphery of the torque converter hub is formed into a cylindrical structure. The guide part of the oil pump gear has a thread, and the guide part of the oil pump gear rotates in the thread. The torque converter hub is inserted into the inner side of the oil pump gear. The guide part of the torque converter hub is fixed in the scissors inserted into the oil pump gear. The fixed groove is formed on the guide part of the torque converter hub at a specified depth. The patent technology still has room for improvement.
[0004] It should be noted that the above introduction to the technical background is only for the convenience of clearly and completely describing the technical scheme of the present application and facilitating the understanding of those skilled in the art. The above technical scheme cannot be considered as known to those skilled in the art only because it is described in the background section of the present application. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL
[0005] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the utility model provides a novel gear and inner hub connecting structure, which can ensure the reliability of the connection and solve the problems of small axial space of the inner hub and the inability of the traditional connecting scheme to meet the requirements.
[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides the following technical scheme:
[0007] A novel gear and inner hub connecting structure, comprising: a gear and a transmission inner hub connected with the gear spline, the gear is provided with a gear spline, a first snap ring groove is formed on the gear spline, and a snap ring is preinstalled in the first snap ring groove.
[0008] According to an embodiment of the utility model, the snap ring is movably arranged in the first snap ring groove, and a distance is arranged between the bottom end of the snap ring and the bottom end of the first snap ring groove, the inner hub is provided with inner splines matched with the gear splines for installation, the inner splines are provided with a second snap ring groove, the front end of the inner splines is provided with a guide chamfer, the inner splines are sleeved on the outer side of the gear splines, the diameter of the snap ring is greater than the depth of the first snap ring groove, and the length of the snap ring protruding from the first snap ring groove is less than the radius of the snap ring.
[0009] The first snap ring groove is arranged at the gear splines on the gear for connecting with the inner hub, and a snap ring is pre-installed in the first snap ring groove, the snap ring is clamped in the first snap ring groove, the snap ring has a certain degree of deformation space, and a distance is arranged between the bottom end of the snap ring and the bottom end of the first snap ring groove to ensure that the snap ring has a space for compression inward, thereby ensuring the smooth installation of the inner hub. The diameter of the snap ring is greater than the depth of the first snap ring groove, so that after the inner hub and the gear are installed, a part of the snap ring can rebound into the second snap ring groove, and the length of the snap ring protruding from the first snap ring groove is less than the radius of the snap ring, so that the length of the protruding part of the snap ring is appropriate, thereby avoiding the difficulty in installation of the inner hub and the gear or the excessive friction between the snap ring and the two components after installation, which affects the transmission efficiency. The depth of the second snap ring groove is greater than the radius of the snap ring, so that the second snap ring groove has sufficient space to accommodate the rebound of the snap ring, and the outer end of the snap ring is prevented from contacting the bottom end of the second snap ring groove to cause noise or affect the transmission efficiency.
[0010] The inner hub and the gear are connected by the inner splines, and the second snap ring groove is arranged at the corresponding axial position of the inner splines for positioning the snap ring. The snap ring is pre-installed in the first snap ring groove on the gear splines, the front end of the inner hub is provided with a guide chamfer, and the inner hub is installed in the direction of the gear during installation. The snap ring on the shaft is first compressed axially, so that the snap ring is compressed inward along the guide chamfer at the front end of the inner hub, and the inner hub is installed in place. When the inner hub is installed in place, the snap ring rebounds and is clamped at the snap ring groove of the gear splines and the inner splines, thereby ensuring that the inner hub and the gear do not disengage. After installation, the snap ring does not come out, thereby improving the reliability of the connection between the gear and the inner hub, and meeting the functional requirements. At the same time, the problem that the traditional connection scheme cannot meet the requirements due to the small radial space of the inner hub is solved.
[0011] Meanwhile, the snap ring is used as the connecting medium of the gear and the inner hub, and the conventional connection mode using threads or complex splines is abandoned, thereby simplifying the internal structure of the transmission, improving the integrity and installation efficiency of the connection part, making the installation simpler and more convenient, reducing the weight of the conventional spline connection part, and improving the transmission efficiency.
