TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of vehicle door drive, specifically relates to a kind of orthogonal connecting rod swing drive mechanism and aircraft door. BACKGROUND
[0002] Automatic swing door as an intelligent configuration has gradually sunk from high-end luxury cars such as Rolls-Royce to 200-300,000 domestic new energy vehicles, and the driving form has changed from the original hydraulic drive to motor control. New energy vehicle electric swing door drive mechanism can be roughly divided into rocker arm connecting rod type, parallel shaft type and orthogonal drive type. Among them, the rocker arm connecting rod is manufactured by Tesla and is first launched, but it has large volume, occupies more space, is heavy, and the vehicle door needs to be customized and developed. It has been gradually replaced by parallel shaft type and orthogonal type drive mechanism. The orthogonal drive mechanism saves the push rod and gear box compared with the parallel shaft drive mechanism, and has a great cost advantage. However, it also has many deficiencies that need to be improved and optimized. The conventional worm and gear orthogonal drive mechanism will swing inside the swing door when the screw rod is pushed out. The swing needs more space inside the door for movement and avoidance. Especially when it comes to aircraft doors, since the space of the vehicle door itself is limited, if the swing amplitude inside the door needs to be reduced, the rotating shaft needs to be installed away from the skin metal support shaft. At this time, the length of the screw rod will not change, which will reduce the stroke. Increasing the length of the screw rod will increase the swing space. The overall swing drive mechanism and the fixed support inside the door can rotate. The rotating shaft is prone to loosen after long-term use. The wire harness is often bent and prone to wear and tear. It is not easy to seal the screw rod when it is pushed out and swings. SUMMARY

[0032] The following is a specific embodiment of the present application and further describes the technical scheme of the present application in combination with the drawings, but the present application is not limited to these embodiments.
[0033] In the figure, sheet metal support 100; screw rod assembly 200; screw rod 201; shell 202; nut 203; rear cover 204; wear-resistant lubricating bushing 205; helical gear 206; worm 207; motor 208; waterproof sealing ring 209; nut 2010; dust cover 2011; connecting rod 300; door hinge 400; door hinge hinge point 500; first connecting pin shaft point 600; second connecting pin shaft point 700; fixed head 800; plane ejection 900; convex surface part 1000; vehicle door 1001; bearing 1002; fixed rod 1003.
[0034] As Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the orthogonal connecting rod swing drive mechanism mainly includes sheet metal support 100, screw assembly 200, fixed rod 1003 and connecting rod 300, wherein the screw assembly 200 includes screw rod 201, shell 202, nut 203, rear cover 204, wear-resistant lubricating bushing 205, helical gear 206, worm 207, motor 208, waterproof sealing ring 209, nut 2010 and dust cover 2011, etc. Figure 3 As shown, the entire orthogonal connecting rod swing drive mechanism is located on the door hinge 400, and the end of the screw assembly 200 is fixedly connected to one end of the fixed head 800; the connecting rod 300 is arranged between the sheet metal support 100 and the screw assembly 200, and the fixed rod 1003 is connected between the door hinge 400 and the sheet metal support 100, wherein the other end of the fixed head 800 is hingedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 300, and the other end of the connecting rod 300 is hingedly connected to the sheet metal support 100, thereby forming a rocker push rod motion mechanism between the door hinge 400, the connecting rod 300, the sheet metal support 100 and the screw assembly 200 and achieving electrically opening and closing the door and multi-angle hovering limiting. The main innovation of the present patent is that the connecting rod 300 is used for swing movement, the screw rod 201 can only linearly extend and retract along the axis, cannot rotate around the axis, and cannot swing, so that the screw rod 201 and the door 1001 always maintain a fixed distance and are opened together, and the door 1001 does not need to provide additional swing space for the screw rod 201, so that the structure is more compact.
[0035] Specifically, in order to realize the swing of the connecting rod 300, the sheet metal support 100 and one end of the connecting rod 300 are connected through the first connecting pin shaft point 600 and can relatively rotate around the connecting pin shaft, the other end of the connecting rod 300 and the fixed head 800 are connected through the second connecting pin shaft point 700 and relatively rotate, and the fixed head 800 is fixedly connected with the screw assembly 200. Since the first connecting pin shaft point 600 is hingedly connected, when the screw rod 201 extends, the fixed head 800 with the screw rod 201 can swing around the connecting rod 300. Similarly, since the first connecting pin shaft point 600 is hingedly connected between the sheet metal support 100 and the connecting rod 300, the connecting rod 300 also swings around the second connecting pin shaft point 700, and the door is lifted by the lever principle. The door hinge 400 has a door hinge hinge point 500, the fixed rod 1003 is arranged between the door hinge hinge point 500 and the first connecting pin shaft point 600, and the two ends of the fixed rod 1003 are connected to the door hinge hinge point 500 and the first connecting pin shaft point 600, respectively. The door hinge 400, the connecting rod 300, the sheet metal support 100 and the screw assembly 200 form a rocker push rod motion mechanism through the door hinge hinge point 500, the first connecting pin shaft point 600 and the second connecting pin shaft point 700, and achieve electrically opening and closing the door and multi-angle hovering limiting. When the door is closed, it is equivalent to 0 degrees, and under the action of the orthogonal connecting rod swing drive mechanism, the hovering limiting angle of the door is ≤85 degrees.
[0036] In addition, as a preferred embodiment, the screw rod assembly 200 comprises a screw rod 201, a housing 202, a nut 203 and a rear cover 204. The outer circle of the screw rod 201 has external threads which are engaged with the internal threads of the nut 203. The screw rod 201 has a planar ejection portion 900 on the symmetrical two side surfaces. The planar ejection portion 900 is machined flat. The rear cover 204 has a boss surface portion 1000. The planar ejection portion 900 of the screw rod 201 and the boss surface portion 1000 are flatly attached and slide. In order to ensure the durability of the sliding, the boss surface portion 1000 and the planar ejection portion 900 have a wear-resistant lubricating bushing 205. The wear-resistant lubricating bushing 205 is sleeved on the housing 202. The planar ejection portion 900, the wear-resistant lubricating bushing 205 and the boss surface portion 1000 are flatly attached and slide. Another innovation of the present patent is that when the screw rod 201 is extended and retracted, the fixed head 800 is swung along with the screw rod 201. Thus, the planar ejection portion 900 of the screw rod 201 will apply force to the boss surface portion 1000 due to the relative movement. The boss surface portion 1000 will transmit the force to the vehicle door 1001, thereby ejecting the vehicle door 1001.
[0037] In order to facilitate the driving and ensure large thrust, as a preferred embodiment, the screw rod assembly 200 further comprises a bevel gear 206, a worm 207 and a motor 208. The nut 203 and the housing 202 have a pair of bearings 1002. The nut 203 has the bevel gear 206 which is engaged with the worm 207. The worm 207 is connected with the motor 208 and transmits the torque from the motor shaft to the nut 203. The motor 208 has a Hall component for detecting the position change. After the motor shaft drives the worm 207 to rotate, the worm 207 drives the bevel gear 206 to rotate. The rotation of the nut 203 causes the screw rod 201 to extend and retract. The rotation of the motor 208 drives the worm 207 to rotate through the motor shaft. The rotation of the worm 207 drives the engaged nut 203 to rotate orthogonally. The internal threads of the nut 203 convert the rotational movement into the linear ejection movement of the screw rod 201. As a further optimization, a nut 2010 is installed on the tail of the screw rod 201. The nut 2010 can be used to limit the maximum stroke of the screw rod 201. As an optimization, a dust cover 2011 is fixed on the rear cover 204. The screw rod 201 is located in the dust cover 2011, thereby protecting the screw rod 201 from dust. The bearings 1002 and the housing 202 are provided with a waterproof sealing ring 209, thereby preventing water from entering the motor 208 through the worm 207.
[0038] As Figure 3As shown, the aircraft door provided with the above orthogonal connecting rod swing driving mechanism is taken as an example, the axis of the screw rod 201 and the connecting rod 300 are in the same line in the initial state, when the door needs to be opened, the motor 208 drives the worm 207 to rotate the nut 203, the screw rod 201 extends outward, due to the action of the connecting rod 300, the fixed head 800, the metal bracket 100 and the door hinge hinge point 500, the fixed head 800 and the connecting rod 300 swing, as shown in Figure 4 As shown, the fixed head 800 and the connecting rod 300 swing in the process by using the lever principle to lift the door 1001, the screw rod 201 simultaneously uses the plane ejection part 900 and the boss surface part 1000 to act on the door to eject, so that the whole door 1001 can be suspended in the required position, and the movement is continued to Figure 5 The final opening state, closing the door by using the motor 208 to move reversely and making the connecting rod 300 and the fixed head 800 return to the original position.
