[0002] The grease pump in prior art adopts the combination structure of motor and crank connecting rod mechanism to provide the power of reciprocating motion for internal plunger pump.For example, the utility model patent with the utility model name of semi-closed micro electric grease pump is disclosed on July 16, 2014, and the announcement number is CN203718352U, which is recorded in the patent document that it includes motor reducer, crank connecting rod mechanism, plunger and pump body, power-on starting, motor reducer drives plunger, i.e.plunger rod reciprocating motion through crank connecting rod mechanism, completes oil absorption and oil discharge process.Due to the problems of wear, looseness and the like of crank connecting rod mechanism in long-term operation, the movement process of plunger rod becomes unstable, and then causes the grease output to fluctuate and be in out-of-control state, which cannot meet the demand of precise grease output under various working conditions.In addition, crank connecting rod mechanism occupies large space when working, causing the volume of entire grease pump to be large. SUMMARY

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is how to improve the stability of plunger rod movement, so that a grease pump with stable grease output is obtained.

[0004] To solve the above technical problem, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: the grease pump includes power component, plunger pump component, shell, power component, plunger pump component are installed on shell, power component is connected with plunger pump component, power component includes motor, planetary reduction mechanism, motor, planetary reduction mechanism are fixedly installed on shell, planetary reduction mechanism is located in the extension direction of the output shaft of motor, planetary reduction mechanism includes mounting seat, primary planetary gear assembly, secondary planetary gear assembly, primary planetary gear assembly, secondary planetary gear assembly are movably installed inside mounting seat, the output shaft of motor is connected with primary planetary gear assembly, primary planetary gear assembly is connected with secondary planetary gear assembly, cam is provided on secondary planetary gear assembly, cam is located in the extension direction of plunger rod of plunger pump component, the center line of the output shaft of motor is perpendicular to the center line of plunger rod, plunger pump component is provided with reset spring for pushing plunger rod towards the location of cam, cam and plunger rod of plunger pump component are connected in abutting mode.

[0005] The power of the reciprocating movement of the plunger rod comes from the cam and the reset spring, and the power of the rotation of the cam comes from the planetary reduction mechanism, and the reset spring accumulates or releases potential energy through its own deformation. The grease pump adopts planetary reduction mechanism transmission, which can extremely accurately adjust the gear rotation speed and transmission ratio. With this characteristic, the movement speed of the plunger rod can be accurately controlled, and the output flow of the grease can be accurately controlled, fully meeting the high-precision demand for the amount of grease under various complex working conditions. The technical scheme discards the crank connecting rod mechanism, so that the overall structure is more compact, the occupied space is significantly reduced, and it is especially suitable for installation scenes with limited space, greatly improving the installation convenience and applicability. The use of planetary reduction mechanism can effectively avoid the structure design prone to wear and looseness, effectively reducing the failure points of wear and looseness. This not only greatly improves the reliability and stability of the grease pump, but also reduces the maintenance cost, bringing users a more efficient and economical use experience.

[0006] The force of the cam on the plunger rod is not all used to push its movement, and there is a part of power loss, the main reason is that the force contains a component force inclined to the extension direction of the plunger rod, the contact surface of the plunger rod and the external part is extremely small, the external part is the cylinder structure wrapped outside the plunger rod, the component force is different from the component force along the plunger rod, it will make the plunger rod extrude the external part, so that the friction force on the plunger rod increases, when the cam overcomes the larger friction force to do work, the thrust required for the linear movement of the plunger rod decreases accordingly. In order to reduce the loss of the cam transmitting power to the plunger rod, the plunger pump part is also provided with a transmission slider, the transmission slider is installed on the shell in a sliding manner, the sliding direction of the transmission slider is parallel to the center line of the plunger rod, the plunger rod is connected with the cam through the transmission slider, one end of the transmission slider is connected with the cam in an abutting manner, the other end of the transmission slider is fixedly connected with the plunger rod, one end of the reset spring is connected with the transmission slider in an abutting manner, and the reset spring extrudes the transmission slider towards the position of the cam. The transmission slider and the shell are connected with a large contact surface, no matter how the cam extrudes the shell, the two can maintain a sliding connection relationship with a low friction coefficient, and the situation that the cam overcomes the friction force to do work is weakened, so the transmission efficiency of the cam driving the transmission slider to the plunger rod is improved.

This planetary reduction mechanism has the advantages of small size, large transmission ratio design range.

[0008] In order to improve the smoothness of the cam surface, a sliding sleeve is mounted outside the cam. The sliding sleeve can reduce the friction on the cam surface.

[0009] The utility model discloses the technical scheme above: the transmission structure of grease pump is optimized, and the transmission structure obtains the advantages such as transmission stability, compact structure and reduced wear.
