Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of flexible bearing, and specifically relates to a flexible bearing convenient to assemble. BACKGROUND

[0002] The harmonic drive transmission includes three basic components: wave generator, flexspline, rigid spline and flexible bearing. The flexible bearing is the core component, and the transmission reaches the performance requirement of high reduction ratio through the elastic deformation of the bearing. In the work, the inner ring is installed on the cam of oval shape, and bears the cyclic stress load in the work. The outer ring is installed on the flexspline, and elastically deforms with the rotation of the cam in the work, and not only bears the cyclic stress load, but also bears the alternating stress load. The flexible bearing of the past is a two-piece structure, which is divided into an inner ring and an outer ring, and the ball is installed between the inner ring and the outer ring. However, the structure is not convenient for the installation of the ball, and the inner ring needs to be placed obliquely in the outer ring. After the ball is put in, it is flattened. Not only is the installation inconvenient, but the installation method also needs to reserve more space for the ball, thereby increasing the play. Due to the functional requirements of the harmonic reducer, the large play of the flexible bearing will affect the transmission accuracy of the product, thereby the play of the ball needs to be reduced. In addition, the structure of the past cannot be disassembled after assembly.

[0003] In the patent file with the publication number CN214837811U, a flexible bearing convenient to assemble is disclosed, which includes an inner ring, an outer ring and balls installed between the inner ring and the outer ring. The outer ring is a one-piece structure. The inner ring is a split structure, including an upper ring body and a lower ring body distributed above and below. The upper ring body and the lower ring body are fixed by screws. By dividing the inner ring into the upper ring body and the lower ring body, the lower ring body is first put into the outer ring during assembly, then the balls are installed, and finally the upper ring body is locked and fixed on the lower ring body by screws to complete the assembly. This method reserves the installation space of the balls, not only convenient to assemble, but also can reduce the play of the balls, and it is easier to control the play within a reasonable range.

[0004] In the above-mentioned prior art, although the combination type bearing inner ring can realize the function of convenient assembly, the upper ring body and the lower ring body are flatly combined in the above-mentioned prior art, and are only locked and fixed by screws. Although the screw and the threaded hole can be tightly matched, the screw and the countersunk screw hole are not tightly matched, which causes the upper ring body and the lower ring body to be not well aligned after combination. Therefore, a new flexible bearing convenient to assemble is proposed to optimize the above-mentioned prior art. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS
