AI Technical Summary
Traditional automatic clutches are difficult to install and remove due to the meshing of ratchet teeth with helical sleeves, and the ratchet teeth are easily damaged.
An automatic clutch device is designed. By setting a limiting component in the clutch body, including a support pin and a limiting pin, the unidirectional meshing of the ratchet and the helical sleeve is limited, thereby avoiding mutual interference between the ratchet and the helical sleeve during installation and disassembly.
It improves the ease of installation and disassembly, reduces the risk of ratchet damage, and ensures proper clutch function and optimized axial length.

TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model mainly relates to the clutch technical field, concretely is a kind of automatic clutch device. BACKGROUND
[0002] The large rotor of turbine, large motor, large fan and other machines needs to be belted by discing device after shutdown or before startup to prevent accidents and improve the service life of rotor. These devices are generally high, and it is inconvenient to operate on site. Remote start-stop discing is generally selected.
[0003] The traditional automatic clutch has two outer teeth, one meshing tooth (transmitting torque) and one guide tooth (guiding without transmitting torque). The consistency of meshing tooth and guide tooth is required to be very high. Once deviation occurs during processing, the clutch will fail (unable to mesh and unable to disengage).
[0004] The traditional automatic clutch is provided with a ratchet tooth installed near the discing side. When installing the discing, the ratchet tooth is often broken by the outer tooth engaged by the spiral tooth sleeve because the discing and the clutch are not concentric at this time. Only after the discing is installed and started, it can be found that the ratchet tooth is broken. The discing needs to be disassembled, the clutch needs to be replaced with a ratchet tooth, and then the discing is reinstalled. The installation and disassembly of the discing are time-consuming and laborious. When disassembling the discing, the spiral tooth sleeve engaging tooth is blocked by the ratchet tooth, increasing the difficulty of disassembly. INVENTION CONTENTS
[0005] The utility model technical scheme provides a significantly different solution from the prior art to solve the technical problem that the spiral tooth sleeve engaging tooth is blocked by the ratchet tooth when the discing is installed and disassembled in the prior art.
[0006] The utility model solves the above technical problems by the following technical scheme:
[0007] An automatic clutch device includes a clutch body and an output shaft. The output shaft is inserted into the clutch body. A spiral tooth sleeve is arranged on the output shaft. A limiting assembly is arranged on the clutch body to mount a ratchet tooth in the clutch body. The limiting assembly limits the one-way engagement of the ratchet tooth and the spiral tooth sleeve.
[0008] Preferably, the limiting assembly includes a support pin shaft arranged in the clutch body. A locking screw is arranged on the clutch body to fix the support pin shaft in the clutch body.
[0009] Preferably, the ratchet tooth is arranged on the support pin shaft. A torsional spring is arranged on the support pin shaft to drive the ratchet tooth to rebound.
[0010] Preferably, a limiting pin shaft is arranged on the clutch body, and the ratchet is provided with an arc-shaped clamping groove at one end away from the supporting pin shaft, and the limiting pin shaft is arranged in the clamping groove.
[0011] Preferably, the output shaft is connected with the spiral gear sleeve through a threaded pair, and the spiral gear sleeve is provided with external teeth matched with the internal teeth of the clutch body.
[0012] Preferably, the ratchet is located at one side of the clutch body in the axial direction of the internal teeth, and the end face of the ratchet is slightly higher than the internal tooth groove of the clutch body.
[0013] Preferably, the output shaft is provided with an end cover at one end, and the output shaft is provided with a fixing screw on the same side for fixing the end cover at the end of the output shaft.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are that the guide teeth and the meshing teeth are combined into a circle of teeth, which can avoid the influence of the error on the clutch function. Moreover, the axial length of the clutch can be reduced, and the dynamic balance of the rotor can be more favorable.
[0015] When the disc is installed, the external teeth of the spiral gear sleeve are first meshed with the internal teeth of the clutch, which increases the concentricity of the disc and the disced machinery, and the ratchet is not easy to be broken. When the disc is disassembled, the ratchet will not block the meshing external teeth of the spiral gear sleeve.
[0016] The utility model will be explained in detail in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
