Abstract

[0002] Currently, most rotary reducers for solar thermal and solar energy systems are precision rotary reducers.

This type of assembled bearing cannot be designed with an integrated oil-proof seal. Grease above the wire raceway bearing can enter the lower part of the bearing through the gap between the bearing steel balls, and then enter the oil seal lip below. When the oil seal rotates, the grease above can easily be carried out or seep out from the rotating lip, causing oil leakage. Utility Model Content

[0066] Working principle:
[0067] The wire raceway bearing is located between the worm gear and the base. Grease fills the area above the wire raceway bearing. A labyrinth seal structure is designed below the wire raceway bearing, followed by an end-face seal structure, and then a radial seal structure. An axial seal structure is designed between the lower end face of the worm gear and the upper plane of the column mounting base. These seal structures together form the overall sealing structure of the rotary reducer. Grease above the wire raceway bearing enters below through the gaps between the steel balls. After passing through the labyrinth seal structure, a small amount of grease falls onto the support wedge-shaped seal ring of the end-face seal structure. As the base and column mounting base rotate relative to each other, a very small amount of grease falls into the inner cavity of the second oil seal. The lip of the second oil seal does not contact the grease, thus achieving the sealing function.
[0068] In addition to the above embodiments, this utility model also includes other implementation methods. All technical solutions formed by equivalent transformation or equivalent substitution should fall within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
