[0022] EMBODIMENT

[0023] REFERENCE Figs. 1-4 The embodiment provides a special tool for industrial robot motor base and C series speed reducer installation, the speed reducer 7 comprises a sun gear 71 and a planet gear 72, the speed reducer 7 is arranged in the motor base 6, the special tool comprises a connecting rod 1, an expansion piece 2 and a pressing piece 3, the connecting rod 1 penetrates the sun gear 71 and the planet gear 72;

[0024] The expansion and contraction part 2 is arranged at one end of the connecting rod 1 close to the sun gear 71, and is used to cooperate with the inner hole of the sun gear 71 to realize radial expansion to fix the sun gear 71; the pressing part 3 is arranged at one end of the connecting rod 1 close to the planetary gear 72, and is used to fix the planetary gear 72 through axial pressing force, and assists the expansion and contraction part 2 to fix the speed reducer 7 as a whole.

[0025] The special tool in the embodiment is mainly used for installation between the motor seat 6 of the industrial robot and the C series speed reducer 7, wherein the speed reducer 7 is mainly composed of the sun gear 71 and the planetary gear 72, and the whole speed reducer 7 needs to be installed into the motor seat 6. The special tool is mainly composed of the connecting rod 1, the expansion and contraction part 2 and the pressing part 3. The connecting rod 1 penetrates through the sun gear 71 and the planetary gear 72. The expansion and contraction part 2 is installed at one end of the connecting rod 1 close to the sun gear 71, and is used to cooperate with the inner hole of the sun gear 71 to realize radial expansion to fix the sun gear 71. The pressing part 3 is installed at one end of the connecting rod 1 close to the planetary gear 72, and is used to fix the planetary gear 72 through axial pressing force, and assists the expansion and contraction part 2 to fix the speed reducer 7 as a whole. In the embodiment, the sun gear 71 and the planetary gear 72 are first assembled and fixed, and then are installed into the motor seat 6 of the industrial robot through cooperation between the connecting rod 1, the expansion and contraction part 2 and the pressing part 3. Therefore, the assembly precision of the motor seat 6 of the industrial robot and the C series speed reducer 7 is improved, and the assembly efficiency is also improved.

[0026] Specifically, the expansion and contraction part 2 includes a pressing block 21 and an expansion sleeve 22. The pressing block 21 is arranged at one end of the connecting rod 1, and the expansion sleeve 22 is arranged in the inner hole of the sun gear 71. The pressing block 21 and the expansion sleeve 22 realize radial expansion through taper surface cooperation, so that the expansion sleeve 22 is in interference connection with the inner hole of the sun gear 71.

[0027] The expansion and contraction part 2 in the embodiment is mainly composed of the pressing block 21 and the expansion sleeve 22. The pressing block 21 is welded at one end of the connecting rod 1 by welding. The expansion sleeve 22 is placed in the inner hole of the sun gear 71. It should be noted that the expansion sleeve 22 has a certain elasticity. Under normal size, the expansion sleeve 22 is in clearance fit with the inner hole of the sun gear 71. During assembly, the connecting rod 1 is penetrated through the expansion sleeve 22 until the pressing block 21 at the end of the connecting rod 1 enters the expansion sleeve 22. The pressing block 21 cooperates with the expansion sleeve 22 through taper surface. At this time, a pulling force is applied to the connecting rod 1 again, so that the connecting rod 1 pulls the pressing block 21 to extrude the expansion sleeve 22. The expansion sleeve 22 expands and deforms radially outward. The outer side wall of the expansion sleeve 22 tightly abuts against the inner hole wall of the sun gear 71. At this time, the expansion sleeve 22 is in interference fit with the inner hole of the sun gear 71, so that the sun gear 71 is fixed firmly.

[0028] Further, the pressing block 21 is in a circular truncated cone structure, and its outer diameter gradually shrinks along the direction close to the pressing part 3. The expansion sleeve 22 is provided with a taper hole 221 matched with the pressing block 21.

[0029] The embodiment designs the briquetting block 21 as a circular truncated cone structure, and the outer diameter of the briquetting block 21 gradually shrinks in the direction close to the compression member 3, that is, the outer diameter of the briquetting block 21 gradually decreases in the direction close to the planetary gear 72 from the sun gear 71. Meanwhile, the embodiment is provided with a tapered hole 221 on the expansion sleeve 22, which cooperates with the structure of the briquetting block 21. When the briquetting block 21 extrudes the expansion sleeve 22, the expansion sleeve 22 can be uniformly stressed and gradually expanded and deformed outward, and the outer side wall of the expansion sleeve 22 can tightly adhere to the inner hole wall of the sun gear 71, so that the expansion sleeve 22 can firmly fix the sun gear 71.

[0030] Specifically, the compression member 3 includes a nylon pad plate 31, a pressing plate 32 and a locking nut 33. The nylon pad plate 31 and the pressing plate 32 are sequentially sleeved on the end of the connecting rod 1 away from the expansion and contraction member 2, and the locking nut 33 is threadedly connected to the end of the connecting rod 1, for compressing the pressing plate 32 to fix the planetary gear 72.

[0031] The compression member 3 in the embodiment mainly includes the nylon pad plate 31, the pressing plate 32 and the locking nut 33. The nylon pad plate 31 and the pressing plate 32 are sequentially sleeved on the end of the connecting rod 1 away from the briquetting block 21. The pressing plate 32 can be used to compress and fix the planetary gear 72. The nylon pad plate 31 is sleeved between the pressing plate 32 and the planetary gear 72, so as to protect the planetary gear 72. After the nylon pad plate 31 and the pressing plate 32 are sleeved, the locking nut 33 is threadedly connected to the connecting rod 1. The locking nut 33 is continuously tightened to compress the pressing plate 32 and fix the planetary gear 72. Meanwhile, the locking nut 33 also applies a pulling force to the connecting rod 1, so that the connecting rod 1 drives the briquetting block 21 to move towards the pressing plate 32, and the briquetting block 21 extrudes the expansion sleeve 22.

[0032] Further, the connecting rod 1 is sleeved with a stop sleeve 4, which is located between the expansion sleeve 22 and the nylon pad plate 31.

[0033] The embodiment sleeves the stop sleeve 4 on the connecting rod 1 between the expansion sleeve 22 and the nylon pad plate 31. When the locking nut 33 is tightened, the spacing between the expansion sleeve 22 and the nylon pad plate 31 is limited, so as to limit the axial displacement of the expansion sleeve 22, thereby avoiding the briquetting block 21 from being pulled out of the expansion sleeve 22 and damaging the sun gear 71 due to excessive tightening of the locking nut 33.

[0034] Further, the embodiment further includes two guide rods 5. One end of the guide rod 5 is symmetrically arranged in the mounting hole of the speed reducer 7, and the other end is inserted into the corresponding mounting hole in the motor base 6, for guiding the accurate alignment of the speed reducer 7 and the motor base 6.

[0035] After the fixing between the sun gear 71 and the planetary gear 72 is completed, two guide rods 5 are symmetrically and penetratingly arranged in the mounting holes of the speed reducer 7, and the other ends of the two guide rods are inserted into the corresponding mounting holes in the motor base 6. During the installation of the entire speed reducer 7 into the motor base 6, the entire speed reducer 7 can be vertically and downwardly moved along the guide rods 5, so as to be accurately installed into the corresponding position in the motor base 6. The guide rods 5 play a certain guiding role in the installation of the entire speed reducer 7, and guide the accurate alignment between the speed reducer 7 and the motor base 6, thereby further improving the assembly accuracy and assembly efficiency of the industrial robot motor base 6 and the C series speed reducer 7. It should be noted that the mounting holes of the speed reducer 7 and the mounting holes in the motor base 6 in the embodiment exist originally, and the mounting holes are used for the installation between the speed reducer 7 and the motor base 6.

[0036] The currently common installation mode is positive sequence installation, that is, the motor base 6 is assembled with the sun gear 71 first, and then the planetary gear 72 in the speed reducer 7 is assembled with the sun gear 71. In the assembly tooling process, due to the structure, the staff cannot visually check whether the teeth of the sun gear 71 and the three planetary gears 72 are aligned at the same time, and the planetary gear 72 and the sun gear 71 are prone to knock, which reduces the assembly accuracy and causes abnormal sound of the robot in the subsequent operation process. Unlike the prior art, the sun gear 71 and the planetary gear 72 are assembled first, and the staff can directly visually adjust the gear angle to avoid gear knock during the assembly. After the assembly of the sun gear 71 and the planetary gear 72 is completed, the expansion sleeve 22 is placed into the inner hole of the sun gear 71, then the connecting rod 1 is inserted through the expansion sleeve 22 and penetrates through the entire speed reducer 7. In this process, the pressing block 21 at the end of the connecting rod 1 gradually enters the expansion sleeve 22, and the nylon pad plate 31 and the pressing plate 32 are sequentially sleeved at the end of the connecting rod 1 away from the pressing block 21. Then, the locking nut 33 is installed and gradually tightened to lock the nylon pad plate 31 and the pressing plate 32, so as to realize the compression and fixation of the planetary gear 72. In this process, the locking nut 33 also applies a pulling force to the connecting rod 1, which drives the pressing block 21 to move towards the pressing plate 32, so that the pressing block 21 extrudes the expansion sleeve 22, the expansion sleeve 22 expands and deforms outward, and the outer wall of the expansion sleeve 22 tightly abuts against the inner hole wall of the sun gear 71. At this time, the gap fit between the expansion sleeve 22 and the inner hole of the sun gear 71 changes to interference fit, thereby realizing firm fixation of the sun gear 71. Finally, two guide rods 5 are symmetrically inserted into the installation holes of the speed reducer 7 composed of the sun gear 71 and the planetary gear 72, and the other ends of the two guide rods 5 are inserted into the corresponding installation holes in the motor base 6. After completion, the entire speed reducer 7 is vertically moved downward along the guide rods 5 until the entire speed reducer 7 is accurately installed at the corresponding position in the motor base 6, and the speed reducer 7 is fixedly installed in the motor base 6 by screws, thereby completing the installation of the motor base 6 and the speed reducer 7. After installation, the locking nut 33 is loosened, and the expansion sleeve 22 will shrink to normal size again. At this time, the nylon pad plate 31, the pressing plate 32, the stop sleeve 4, the connecting rod 1 and the expansion sleeve 22 can be sequentially removed.

[0037] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application and are not limiting. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the technical solutions of the present application can be modified or replaced equivalently without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present application, which should be covered in the scope of the claims of the present application.
