For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0025] As Figures 1 to 5 The utility model relates to a butter gun for lubricating grease filling to mechanical equipment. The butter gun includes a casing 11, a driving mechanism 12 mounted on the casing 11, a transmission mechanism 13 connected to the driving mechanism 12, a butter cartridge 21 mounted on the casing 11, and an oil outlet pipe 22 connected to the butter cartridge 21. The driving mechanism 12 drives the transmission mechanism 13 to make reciprocating motion to drive the grease in the butter cartridge 21 to be discharged through the oil outlet pipe 22. The casing 11 can adopt a split structure, for example, a first casing 101 and a second casing 102 can be used to realize cooperation.

[0026] Furthermore, the transmission mechanism 13 is provided with a transmission gear connected to the driving mechanism 12, an eccentric pin located on the transmission gear, and a plunger rod sleeved on the eccentric pin. The transmission gear is driven by the driving mechanism 12 and drives the eccentric pin to make circular motion along a fixed center, thereby driving the plunger rod to make reciprocating motion, realizing the action of the plunger rod pushing the grease out.

[0027] The butter gun is provided with a busbar seat 14 located at the rear of the transmission mechanism 13, one end of the plunger rod extends into the busbar seat 14 to contact and push the grease. The butter cartridge 21 is mounted below the busbar seat 14, and the busbar seat 14 is provided with a grease passage. When the plunger rod makes reciprocating motion, the grease in the butter cartridge 21 will pass through the busbar seat 14 and be extruded from the oil outlet pipe 22. The busbar seat 14 is provided with an exhaust valve located on the upper surface. When the internal pressure is relatively large, it will affect the extrusion of the grease. At this time, the exhaust valve can be opened to exhaust the gas in the busbar seat 14, facilitating the extrusion of the grease.

[0028] The casing 11 has a motor portion 111 in which the driving mechanism 12 is installed, a main body portion 112 connected to the motor portion 111, and a handle portion 113 extending from the main body portion 112. The motor portion 111 and the handle portion 113 are respectively located at two ends of the main body portion 112, and the extending directions of the motor portion 111 and the handle portion 113 are parallel. The handle portion 113 is a portion of the casing 11 that can be held by an operator, and provides convenience for the operator to hold the butter gun. The main body portion 112 is a portion of the casing 11 in which the busbar 14 is installed, and the motor portion 111 is a portion of the casing 11 in which the driving mechanism 12 is installed. In this way, integrated installation of the components can be achieved, the assembly difficulty between the components is reduced, and the space occupation is also reduced.

[0029] The main body portion 112 is connected to the handle portion 113, and the motor portion 111 is away from the handle portion 113. The motor portion 111 can form an arrangement space matched with the driving mechanism 12. Thus, the driving mechanism 12 and the busbar 14 form relatively independent assembly spaces, respectively adapted to the assembly of the driving mechanism 12 and the busbar 14 in the casing 11. In actual cases, the main body portion 112 can be provided with a cuboid shape to adapt to the installation of the busbar 14. The motor portion 111 can be provided with a column shape to adapt to the installation of the motor 121 in the driving mechanism 12. The motor portion 111 can position the position of the motor 121 by providing a positioning rib, so as to ensure the stability of the motor 121 after assembly.

[0030] The driving mechanism 12 comprises a motor 121, a first circuit board 122 connected to the motor 121 and a fan 123, and a first support 124 and a second support 125 fixed to the motor 121. Along the extension direction of the motor part 111, the first support 124, the fan 123, the motor 121, the second support 125 and the first circuit board 122 are arranged in sequence. The motor 121 of the driving mechanism 12 generates driving force during operation, which can be transmitted to the plunger rod in a suitable form through the transmission mechanism 13 after speed reduction and motion form conversion, so as to drive the plunger rod to move and realize grease extrusion. The first circuit board 122 is a circuit board equipped with the motor 121, which can connect the motor 121 to the control circuit of the grease gun. In addition, the first circuit board 122 can be arranged with a detector such as a Hall element to detect the operation of the motor 121, so as to ensure the normal operation of the motor 121. The first circuit board 122 is located on the side of the motor 121 close to the busbar 14, which can be directly electrically connected to other parts in the circuit through internal wiring without passing through the area where the stator 1212 of the motor 121 is located. The fan 123 is a component for cooling the motor 121, which can play a role in heat dissipation during the operation of the grease gun. The first support 124 can be provided with a hollow area 1241 exposing part of the fan. The hollow area 1241 provides convenience for air convection, and during the rotation of the fan 123, stable and smooth air convection can be formed between the inside and outside of the machine shell 11, so as to effectively cool the motor 121. The hollow area 1241 on the first support 124 provides convenience for air flow.

[0031] The grease gun provided by the embodiment of the present application arranges the first circuit board 122 of the driving mechanism 12 in the motor part 111 when arranging the motor 121 in the machine shell 11. At the same time, the first circuit board 122 in the driving mechanism 12 is located on the side of the motor 121 close to the main body part 112, so that the arrangement position of the first circuit board 122 is closer to the main body part 112, which provides convenience for the wiring connection of the first circuit board 122. The internal wiring can be connected to the first circuit board 122 without passing through the position where the stator 1212 of the motor 121 is located, thereby reducing the assembly difficulty of the motor 121.

[0032] The parts of the driving mechanism 12 are connected through the fixing member 15, which can be a fastener such as a bolt or a screw. Figure 3As shown, the fixing member 15 passes sequentially through the groove of the first bracket 124, the stator 1212 of the motor 121, and the second bracket 125, connecting all parts to form a whole. The motor 121 is located above the grease cylinder. The motor 121 includes a rotor 1211, a stator 1212 sleeved on the rotor 1211, and a rotor shaft 1213 connected to the rotor 1211. The fan 123 is fixed to the rotor shaft 1213, and the rotor shaft 1213 is connected to the input end of the transmission mechanism 13. The rotor 1211 and the stator 1212 cooperate with each other, driving the rotor 1211 to rotate in the magnetic field environment formed by the stator 1212. The rotor shaft 1213, the fan 123, and the rotor 1211 rotate synchronously. The stator 1212 is made of stacked magnetic steel sheets and has grooves for mounting screws.

[0033] The grease gun also includes a second circuit board 16, which serves as the control board for the grease gun. The second circuit board 16 can control the grease gun to start or stop working, and adjust the working level, based on the operator's triggering of the switch. The second circuit board 16 is located in the main body 112. The second circuit board 16 is electrically connected to the first circuit board 122 via wires. The second circuit board 16 can control the operation of the drive mechanism 12, allowing the grease gun to automatically dispense grease under the drive of the drive mechanism 12. Both the drive mechanism 12 and the second circuit board 16 are located in the area adjacent to the manifold 14. Furthermore, the drive mechanism 12 and the second circuit board 16 are positioned on different sides of the manifold 14. This effectively utilizes the installation space within the housing 11, allowing for a relatively compact arrangement of all components and ensuring the miniaturization of the overall structure of the grease gun.

[0034] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the housing 11 of the grease gun may also include a cover 114. The motor portion 111 of the housing 11 has an opening communicating with the outside. The cover 114 is connected to the motor portion 111 and closes the opening. The cover 114 facilitates the fixation of the drive mechanism 12 within the housing 11. The cover 114 can be fixed together with the motor portion 111 of the housing 11, thereby forming a protective shell for the motor 121 through the connection between the cover 114 and the motor portion 111. The opening of the motor portion 111 is directly opposite the assembly position of the drive mechanism 12, thus forming a channel within the housing 11. The drive mechanism 12 is connected to the manifold 14 through three, four, or five fasteners 15. The cover 114 can close the opening of the motor portion 111 after the drive mechanism 12 is assembled. In practice, the cover 114 and the motor portion 111 can be detachably connected. The cover 114 can have mounting holes, allowing it to be connected to the opening of the motor section 111 via fasteners passing through the mounting holes. This detachable connection facilitates the assembly and disassembly of different parts of the housing 11, enabling replacement and maintenance of the drive mechanism 12.

[0035] In this embodiment, the second circuit board 16 can be parallel to the axial direction of the motor 121, and the first circuit board 122 can be perpendicular to the axial direction of the motor 121. For example... Figure 5 As shown, the second circuit board 16 can be placed flat on one side of the busbar 14, and the first circuit board 122 can be arranged vertically on different sides of the busbar 14. In this way, by arranging different circuit boards facing the busbar 14 in different areas, the layout space around the busbar 14 can be effectively utilized.

[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, the main body 112 can protrude from the motor portion 111 and the handle portion 113 in the vertical direction of the second circuit board 16. The protruding main body 112 in the vertical direction corresponding to the second circuit board 16 not only adapts to the arrangement space shape of the busbar 14, but also creates a relatively independent arrangement area for the second circuit board 16. This ensures that the arrangement position of the second circuit board 16 is not easily affected by other components.

[0037] In addition, such as Figure 4 As shown, the motor section 111 may be equipped with an operation button 161, which is directly opposite and electrically connected to the second circuit board 16. Positioning the operation button 161 adjacent to the second circuit board 16 facilitates the electrical connection between the operation button 161 and the second circuit board 16. Operators can control certain functions using the operation button, such as turning on the lights or locking the grease gun.

[0038] like Figure 5 As shown, the grease gun may also include a battery pack 17, which is connected to the side of the handle portion 113 away from the main body portion 112. The battery pack 17 and the motor 121 of the drive mechanism 12 are located at opposite ends of the main body portion 112. The battery pack 17 provides power for the operation of the grease gun. The battery pack 17 can be assembled using a plug-in connection and transmits electrical energy to the motor 121 through a transmission line within the handle portion 113, enabling the motor 121 to operate normally. Furthermore, the battery pack 17 and the motor 121 of the drive mechanism 12 are located at opposite ends of the handle portion 113, which helps to distribute the weight of the grease gun, bringing its center of gravity closer to the handle portion 113, thereby reducing operator fatigue when gripping the grease gun for grease application.

[0039] Those skilled in the art will understand that the above embodiments are specific implementations of this application, and in practical applications, various changes can be made in form and detail without departing from the spirit and scope of this application.
