[0030] As Figure 1 andFigure 2 The utility model discloses a harmonic reducer assembly module, including:
[0031] Driving part 1,
[0032] The reducer 2 of output end connection with driving part 1, the output end of reducer 2 all are towards first direction X with the output end of driving part 1,
[0033] Magnetic encoding part 3 of output end connection with driving part 1, the output end of magnetic encoding part 3 is towards first direction X, and the output end of magnetic encoding part 3 is away from the output end of driving part 1 and is arranged,
[0034] Among them, the middle position of the output end of the magnetic encoding part 3 is fixedly installed with a torsion sensor 4, one end of the torsion sensor 4 is provided in the magnetic encoding part 3, and a plurality of flexible sheets 5 are fixedly installed on the other end side wall of the torsion sensor 4.
[0035] By the above structure, the harmonic reducer assembly module comprises a driving part 1, a reducer 2, a magnetic encoding part 3 and a torsion sensor 4, which is compact in structure and reasonable in function distribution. The driving part 1 serves as a power source, and its output end is directed towards the first direction X and connected with the reducer 2. The reducer 2 receives power from the driving part 1 and realizes speed reduction and torque increase through the harmonic transmission principle, and its output end is also directed towards the first direction X and consistent with the output direction of the driving part 1.
[0036] The magnetic encoding part 3 is installed at the output end position of the driving part 1 and used for monitoring the angle and speed of the output shaft, and its output end is away from the driving part 1 and keeps the same direction with the output end of the driving part 1. The torsion sensor 4 is fixedly installed at the middle position of the output end of the magnetic encoding part 3, one end of the torsion sensor 4 is provided in the magnetic encoding part 3 and used for measuring the torque change in the power transmission process, and a plurality of flexible sheets 5 are fixedly installed on the other end side wall of the torsion sensor 4. The flexible sheets 5 will be slightly deformed when bearing the torque, and the torsion sensor 4 can convert the deformation into an electrical signal to realize high-precision measurement of the torque.
[0037] The whole module outputs power through the driving part 1, reduces the speed and increases the torque through the reducer 2, and then transmits to the magnetic encoding part 3 and the torsion sensor 4. The magnetic encoding part 3 detects the angle and speed information of the output shaft in real time. The torsion sensor 4 senses the torque change through the flexible sheets 5 and outputs a signal. The torsion sensor 4 captures the angle change of the flexible sheets 5, and the host computer can issue a command to control the servo motor according to the angle change, so as to control the driving part 1. Through the above design, the utility model realizes high-speed reduction, high-precision output and high-sensitivity torque detection, is simple in structure, powerful in function and widely applicable to integrated precision control systems.
[0038] Preferably, the uniform and spaced distribution of the flexible pieces 5 can ensure the symmetry and uniformity of the stress. During the torque transmission and detection process, the uniformly distributed flexible pieces 5 can balance the stress in all directions, thereby reducing the error caused by uneven stress and improving the measurement accuracy of the torque sensor 4. At the same time, the above structure can also reduce local fatigue and loss, and improve the service life of the flexible pieces 5 and the reliability of the system. Specifically, the plurality of flexible pieces 5 are all made of spring pieces. The flexible pieces 5 made of spring piece material can provide higher elasticity and deformation recovery capability, ensuring that they can quickly respond when stressed and quickly recover to their original state after unloading. Therefore, the spring pieces can enhance the sensing sensitivity of the torque sensor 4 to small torque changes, while reducing the risk of plastic deformation or fatigue failure caused by long-term use. In addition, the spring pieces have excellent durability and fatigue resistance, further improving the stability and reliability of the harmonic reducer assembly module.
[0039] In the embodiment, the reducer 2 includes a first transmission shaft 21, a wave generator 22, a flexspline 23, and a steel wheel 24. The first transmission shaft 21 is connected with the output end of the driving part 1, so that the power generated by the driving part 1 can be directly transmitted to the core part of the reducer 2, ensuring the efficiency of power transmission, reducing the intermediate transmission link, and reducing energy loss and improving transmission efficiency. The wave generator 22 is one of the key components of the harmonic reducer and is sleeved on the first transmission shaft 21. Through the wave generator 22, the driving part 1 can generate controllable wave deformation during transmission, thereby driving the flexspline 23. The wave generator 22 also has high reduction ratio and torque output capability, and its close cooperation with the first transmission shaft 21 makes the transmission process more stable, reducing vibration and noise. The flexspline 23 is in contact with the outer wall of the wave generator 22, and drives the flexspline 23 to roll on the steel wheel 24 by using the deformation generated by the wave generator 22. The close cooperation of the flexspline 23 and the outer wall of the wave generator 22 ensures the effective transmission of power and can increase the torque output through the deformation of the wave generator 22, effectively enhancing the overall transmission efficiency of the harmonic reducer assembly module. The connection between the flexspline 23 and the steel wheel 24 adopts the meshing mode of connecting teeth, and provides an efficient force transmission path. The meshing of the connecting teeth can achieve more stable transmission effect, reducing the sliding friction and energy loss between the gears, and improving the work efficiency. Through the gear meshing, the steel wheel 24 can withstand higher load, further improving the torque output capability and load capacity of the reducer 2.
[0040] In this embodiment, the magnetic encoding part 3 includes a second transmission shaft 31, a magnetic encoding inner rotor 32, a magnetic encoding stator 33, and a magnetic encoding outer rotor 34. The second transmission shaft 31 is connected with the first transmission shaft 21 so that the power of the driving part 1 can be directly transmitted to the magnetic encoding part 3, realizing the close coupling of the transmission chain, reducing the loss in the process of energy transmission, and ensuring that the magnetic encoding part 3 can synchronously perceive and process the output signal of the harmonic reducer, improving the response speed and precision of the overall system. The magnetic encoding part 3 can detect the torque at the output end of the magnetic encoding part 3 according to the difference in the rotation angle of the magnetic encoding inner rotor 32 and the magnetic encoding outer rotor 34. Specifically, the magnetic encoding inner rotor 32 is sleeved on the second transmission shaft 31, so that it can accurately synchronize the motion state of the second transmission shaft 31, and the rotation signal of the transmission shaft is captured through the magnetic encoding inner rotor 32, realizing accurate monitoring of the angular displacement or rotational speed of the output shaft. The magnetic encoding outer rotor 34 is sleeved on the magnetic encoding inner rotor 32 but remains separated, avoiding friction and mechanical interference caused by direct contact through a gap, and the non-contact structure can achieve higher signal sensitivity while reducing wear and prolonging the service life of the components. The magnetic encoding outer rotor 34 can perceive the change of the magnetic field of the magnetic encoding inner rotor 32 and convert it into effective signal output. The magnetic encoding stator 33 is sleeved on the second transmission shaft 31 and works cooperatively with the magnetic encoding inner rotor 32 and the magnetic encoding outer rotor 34. The magnetic encoding stator 33 is sleeved on the second transmission shaft 31 and serves as a support component for the rotation of the magnetic encoding inner rotor 32 and the magnetic encoding outer rotor 34. The magnetic encoding inner rotor 32 and the magnetic encoding outer rotor 34 jointly act on the side of the magnetic encoding stator 33, so that the magnetic encoding part 3 can accurately capture the magnetic field change caused by rotational motion, realizing high-precision angular displacement or rotational speed detection. The magnetic encoding outer rotor 34 and the magnetic encoding inner rotor 32 are rotatably installed on the magnetic encoding stator 33 towards the output end of the magnetic encoding part 3, thereby ensuring that the detection data can be quickly transmitted to the output end, shortening the signal processing path and improving the data transmission efficiency.
[0041] In this embodiment, the first transmission shaft 21 and the second transmission shaft 31 are connected through a coupling 6, which can effectively connect the first transmission shaft 21 and the second transmission shaft 31 and ensure the power transmission between them. The coupling 6 can absorb errors caused by misalignment or axial and radial deviation of the first transmission shaft 21 and the second transmission shaft 31, thereby avoiding vibration and wear of the transmission system and improving the stability and reliability of the transmission. In addition, the application of the coupling 6 also facilitates maintenance and adjustment, making the entire system more flexible and efficient during operation. A flange 7 is fixedly installed on the end of the second transmission shaft 31 away from the first transmission shaft 21, thereby providing additional support and fixation for the transmission shaft. The flange 7 not only provides a stable interface for connecting other components or structures, but also effectively disperses the load generated during transmission, enhancing the compression and torsional resistance of the transmission system. In addition, the flange 7 structure can also ensure the stability of the second transmission shaft 31 under long-term operation, avoiding bearing damage or system failure caused by excessive axial or radial force.
