[0021] Please see Figures 1-3 The present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0022] A speed reducer with a braking mechanism includes a speed reducer body 1. A ratchet 2 is mounted on the output shaft 12 of the speed reducer body 1. The inclined surface of the ratchet teeth of the ratchet 2 faces the same direction as the rotation of the output shaft 12. A mounting plate 3 is provided inside the outer shell 11 of the speed reducer body 1. A plurality of pressing parts 4 are evenly mounted on the mounting plate 3. The pressing parts 4 can press against the inclined surface of the ratchet 2. A start-stop device 7 is mounted on the mounting plate 3. The start-stop device 7 is connected to the pressing parts 4 and controls the pressing parts 4 to press against or disengage from the ratchet 2.
[0023] The extrusion component 4 includes a receiving groove 41, which is opened in the mounting plate 3. An extrusion block 42 is sealed and connected in the receiving groove 41. The extrusion block 42 can slide out of the receiving groove 41 along the radial direction of the mounting plate 3. The end face of the extrusion block 42 facing the axis of the mounting plate 3 is inclined. The inclined surface of the extrusion block 42 can fit with the inclined surface of the ratchet 2.
[0024] The start / stop device 7 includes an electromagnet 71, which is mounted on the housing 11. The core of the electromagnet 71 extends into the receiving groove 41. A passive core 73 is provided on the pressing block 42. A spring 72 is sleeved on one end of the electromagnet 71 core extending into the receiving groove 41 and the passive core 73. One end of the spring 72 is fixed to the pressing block 42, and the other end of the spring 72 is fixed to the bottom of the receiving groove 41. When the core of the electromagnet 71 and the passive core 73 are attracted together, the pressing block 42 is completely inside the receiving groove 41.
[0025] Two connecting pipes 76 are connected to the receiving tank 41. The other end of the connecting pipe 76 is connected to the oil sump of the reducer body 1. A one-way valve 74 and a solenoid valve 75 are respectively installed on the two connecting pipes 76. The flow direction of the one-way valve 74 is towards the receiving tank 41.
[0026] The topmost extrusion piece 4 is the suction piece, which is connected to the one-way valve 74. The bottommost extrusion piece 4 is the discharge piece, which is connected to the solenoid valve 75. Adjacent accommodating slots 41 are connected by a connecting slot 5. A one-way valve 6 is provided on the connecting slot 5. The flow direction of the one-way valve 6 is from the suction piece to the discharge piece.
[0027] When braking, electromagnet 71 is closed, solenoid valve 75 is closed, passive iron core 73 is disengaged from electromagnet 71, and the squeezing block 42 of the suction component is squeezed out towards ratchet 2 under the action of spring 72. The volume of the receiving groove 41 of the suction component 42 increases, and oil is drawn from the oil pool through one-way valve 2 74. At the same time, ratchet 2 rotates with output shaft 12, and ratchet 2 pushes the squeezing block 42 of the suction component to move outward, thereby pumping out the oil in the receiving groove 41 of the suction component. The pumped oil is transported to the adjacent receiving groove 41 through one-way valve 6 on both sides, thereby pushing the corresponding squeezing block 42 to move towards one side of ratchet 2.
[0028] After the ratchet 2 passes the squeezing block 42 of the suction component, the squeezing block 42 is pushed out by the spring 72, thereby repeatedly sucking in oil from the oil pool. Before the braking is completed, the output shaft drives the ratchet 2 to rotate, so that the suction component repeatedly sucks in and pumps out oil until the oil enters all the receiving slots 41. At this time, all the squeezing blocks 42 are squeezed against the ratchet 2, so that the ratchet 2 stops, that is, the reducer body 1 achieves braking.
[0029] When the brake is released, the electromagnet 71 is attracted, the solenoid valve 75 is opened, and the oil in the receiving tank 41 can flow back into the oil pool through the solenoid valve 75. All the oil in the suction part is output, and the oil in the other extrusion parts 4 is squeezed out by the ratchet 2, so that all the extrusion blocks 42 are disengaged from the ratchet 2, and the ratchet 2 can rotate freely, thus realizing the release of the brake.
[0030] Specifically, a ratchet 2 is installed on the output shaft 12, and a mounting plate 3 is correspondingly provided inside the housing 11. Several pressing parts 4 are evenly arranged on the mounting plate 3. The pressing parts 4 are controlled by the start / stop device 7. When braking is applied, the passive iron core 73 is disengaged from the electromagnet 71, and the pressing block 42 of the suction part is squeezed downward under the action of the spring 72, thereby drawing oil from the oil pool of the reducer body 1 through the one-way valve 2 74. The inclined surface of the pressing block 42 is in contact with the inclined surface of the ratchet 2. When the input shaft rotates, the ratchet 2 pushes the pressing block 42 of the suction part to slide repeatedly in the receiving groove 41. When the pressing block 42 slides outward, the oil in the suction part is pumped into the lower receiving groove 41 through the one-way valve 6 until the oil is pumped into all the pressing parts 4 through the connecting groove 5. All the pressing parts 4 are squeezed with the ratchet 2, so that the ratchet 2 drives the output shaft to brake. The braking mechanism is located inside the housing 11 and is not affected by the lubricating oil, thus ensuring the braking effect.
