TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to the technical field of mechanical transmission, in particular to a clutch structure of a rotating wheel. BACKGROUND
[0002] As a special omni-directional wheel, the Mecanum wheel is widely used in various devices requiring omni-directional movement. However, in the traditional mechanical structure, the realization of the clutch function usually depends on a complex physical structure.
[0003] In the Mecanum wheel, how to realize the clutch function to simply and quickly separate the transmission components when the motor is not needed has become a problem to be solved. The traditional clutch structure is usually complex and costly, which not only increases the manufacturing cost of the device, but also increases the difficulty of maintenance and repair.
[0004] Therefore, how to design a simple and effective clutch mechanism to simplify the mechanical structure of the Mecanum wheel and reduce the manufacturing cost and maintenance difficulty has become a technical problem to be faced by the technical personnel in the field. CONTENT OF THE INVENTION
[0005] In order to simplify the clutch structure of the rotating wheel, the application provides a clutch structure of a rotating wheel.
[0006] The application provides a clutch structure of a rotating wheel, which adopts the following technical scheme.
[0007] The clutch structure of the rotating wheel comprises:
[0008] A fixed shaft assembly comprises a clutch telescopic device, a first support frame and a first transmission flange. The clutch telescopic device is arranged in the first support frame and can be extended out of or retracted into the first support frame. The first transmission flange is fixed to the telescopic end of the clutch telescopic device. A pin is fixed to the first transmission flange.
[0009] A drive shaft assembly comprises a second transmission flange, a second support frame and a motor transmission shaft. The motor transmission shaft is installed in the second support frame and can rotate relative to the second support frame. The second transmission flange is fixed to one end of the motor transmission shaft. The second transmission flange is provided with a pin hole matched with the pin. When the pin is inserted into the pin hole, the motor transmission shaft drives the fixed shaft assembly to rotate.
[0010] A rotating wheel is fixedly connected to the first support frame and the second support frame. The pin and the hole are located inside the rotating wheel.
[0011] By adopting the technical scheme, the clutching and telescoping device can move in and out relative to the fixed shaft assembly. When the clutching and telescoping device is extended, the pin of the first transmission flange and the pin hole of the second transmission flange form a clamping connection, so that the motor transmission shaft can drive the clutching and telescoping device to rotate, thereby driving the first support frame, the rotating wheel and the second support frame to rotate as a whole. When the clutching and telescoping device is retracted, the pin and the pin hole are separated, and the connection between the motor transmission shaft and the clutching and telescoping device is released, so that the rotating wheel is no longer driven by the motor transmission shaft, achieving the purpose of clutching. The fixed shaft assembly and the driving shaft assembly can realize the clutching function in the interior of the rotating wheel, avoiding the need to set an additional clutching structure outside the rotating wheel, reducing the volume required by the rotating wheel and the clutching structure, facilitating installation, and improving the applicability of the rotating wheel.

[0014] Optionally, the outer wall of the spline shaft has a protrusion, and the inner wall of the first support frame has a groove matched with the outer wall of the spline shaft.
[0015] By adopting the technical scheme, the protrusion of the spline shaft can slide along the groove in the first support frame, realizing the axial movement of the spline shaft in the first support frame while preventing the spline shaft from rotating relative to the first support frame, thereby ensuring the stability of transmission during clutching.
[0016] Optionally, the outer side of the first support frame is provided with a cover plate, and the clutching driving shaft penetrates through the cover plate and is fixed in the first support frame.
[0017] By adopting the technical scheme, one end of the clutching driving shaft is clamped on the cover plate, so that the clutching driving shaft is fixed relative to the first support frame, thereby being able to drive the spline shaft to move in and out relative to the first support frame, and the clutching driving shaft stably controls the spline shaft.
[0018] Optionally, the clutching driving shaft comprises a peg head and a ring-shaped flange, the peg head is arranged on the outer side of the cover plate, and the ring-shaped flange is arranged on the inner side of the cover plate.
[0019] By adopting the technical scheme, the peg head and the ring-shaped flange sandwich the cover plate, so that the position of the clutching driving shaft is fixed relative to the cover plate, the cover plate is fixed on the first support frame, and the clutching driving shaft is prevented from being separated from the first support frame during rotation.
[0020] Optionally, the clutching and telescoping device further comprises a spring, the spring is sleeved on the periphery of the clutching drive shaft, and two ends thereof are respectively abutted against the cover plate and the spline shaft.
[0021] By adopting the above technical scheme, when the spline shaft is retracted, the spline shaft moves towards the cover plate, the space between the cover plate and the spline shaft is compressed, so that the spring is compressed.
[0022] Optionally, the drive shaft assembly comprises a helical gear for connecting with the motor, and the helical gear is connected to the motor drive shaft at an end away from the second transmission flange.
[0023] By adopting the above technical scheme, the helical gear connects the external motor and the motor drive shaft, increases the connection surface of the motor drive shaft and the external motor, and enables the rotating force generated by the external motor to be more stably transmitted to the motor drive shaft.
[0024] Optionally, a connecting bearing is arranged between the motor drive shaft and the second support frame.
[0025] By adopting the above technical scheme, since the motor drive shaft needs to rotate relative to the second support frame, the connecting bearing is arranged to enable the rotation of the motor drive shaft to not affect the second support frame when the clutching structure is separated, thereby guaranteeing the clutching effect.
[0026] Optionally, the clutching and telescoping device further comprises a connecting frame connecting the first support frame and the second support frame.
[0027] By adopting the above technical scheme, the connecting frame can fix the rotating wheel on an external object that needs to be moved, so that the rotating wheel is more easily installed.
[0028] Optionally, a first bearing is arranged between the connecting frame and the first support frame, and a second bearing is arranged between the connecting frame and the second support frame.
[0029] By adopting the above technical scheme, the connecting frame needs to be fixed on an external object, and the rotating wheel needs to rotate relative to the connecting frame, so that the first bearing and the second bearing are arranged to enable the first support frame, the second support frame, and the rotating wheel connected thereto to rotate relative to the connecting frame.
