[0036] Referring to Figures 1-6 The utility model provides a kind of rigid wheel of harmonic reducer of rapid heat dissipation, comprising:

[0037] Rigid shell 100 is annular, and the rigid shell 100 is provided with a connecting hole;

[0038] The tooth portion 200 is located on the inner wall of the rigid shell 100, and the tooth portion 200 comprises a plurality of inner teeth 210. The plurality of inner teeth 210 are uniformly distributed on the inner wall of the rigid shell 100 in the circumferential direction. The side wall 230 of at least one inner tooth 210 is provided with a heat dissipation groove. The side wall 230 comprises a first wall surface and a second wall surface.

[0039] The rigid wheel provided in the scheme comprises a rigid shell 100 and a tooth part 200, wherein the rigid shell 100 serves as the main structure of the rigid wheel and is a thick-walled circular ring structure. The tooth part 200 is located on the inner wall of the rigid shell 100, and the tooth part 200 comprises a plurality of inner teeth 210 which are uniformly distributed along the inner wall of the rigid shell 100 in the circumferential direction. Since the rigid wheel and the flexible wheel are continuously engaged when the harmonic reducer is running, heat will be generated at the engagement position of the rigid wheel and the flexible wheel, and then pitting and other problems caused by high temperature will occur. Therefore, a heat dissipation groove is formed on the inner tooth 210 of the rigid tooth to improve the heat dissipation capacity. After the heat dissipation groove is formed, on the one hand, the surface area of the inner tooth 210 can be increased to improve the heat dissipation capacity, and on the other hand, the heat dissipation groove can serve as an oil storage groove to supply oil to the engagement position of the rigid wheel and the flexible wheel, so that there is sufficient lubricating oil between the two, and further, the heat dissipation groove also provides a path for the flow of lubricating oil, improves the flowability of lubricating oil, and at the same time, speeds up the flow and heat dissipation efficiency of lubricating oil, solving the technical problem of easy heat generation of the rigid wheel.

[0040] In addition, since the heat dissipation groove is located on the side wall 230 of the inner tooth 210, that is, the engagement surface between the flexible wheel and the rigid wheel, the heat dissipation groove will also have a certain heat dissipation effect on the flexible wheel, avoiding deformation caused by overheating of the flexible wheel.

[0041] Embodiment 1

[0042] Referring to Figure 1 In this embodiment, not every inner tooth 210 of the rigid wheel is provided with a heat dissipation groove, and only one of the two adjacent inner teeth 210 is provided with a heat dissipation groove. That is, the inner teeth 210 are divided into heat dissipation teeth and non-heat dissipation teeth, wherein the heat dissipation teeth realize the function of heat dissipation by increasing the surface area and guiding the flow of lubricating oil; the non-heat dissipation teeth maintain the complete tooth structure and maintain the local bending stiffness. This structure can be applied to high-load intermittent working conditions.

[0043] Embodiment 2

[0044] Referring to Figure 2 This embodiment is a variation of Embodiment 1. Compared with Embodiment 1, in Embodiment 2, a heat dissipation groove is formed on each inner tooth 210, and the number of heat dissipation grooves is increased, thereby improving the heat dissipation capacity of the rigid tooth and the flowability of the lubricating oil in the rigid tooth.

[0045] In addition, the groove-shaped structure formed between the two inner teeth 210 is referred to as a tooth groove 220. In this embodiment, the tooth groove 220 with a heat dissipation groove is a heat dissipation tooth groove 220, and the tooth groove 220 without a heat dissipation groove is a non-heat dissipation tooth groove 220. The heat dissipation tooth groove 220 and the non-heat dissipation tooth groove 220 are arranged alternately.

[0046] When the harmonic reducer is working, according to the different rotation directions of the harmonic reducer, the first wall surface or the second wall surface may serve as the main working surface (the wall surface that is closer when engaged), and the main working surface is the area where heat is generated more obviously.

[0047] Alternating grooving, in a harmonic reducer requiring alternating forward and reverse rotation, can ensure that a part of the main working surface is provided with a heat dissipation groove for heat dissipation, and the structure can also destroy the vibration transmission periodicity of the tooth groove 220, thereby reducing the noise generated by the harmonic reducer during operation.

[0048] Embodiment 3

[0049] Reference Figure 3 This embodiment is a variant of Embodiment 2, and each inner tooth 210 is also provided with a heat dissipation groove, and each heat dissipation groove is provided on the same wall surface of the inner tooth 210, which can be the first wall surface or the second wall surface.

[0050] Compared with Embodiment 2, in this embodiment, each tooth groove 220 is a heat dissipation tooth groove 220, but each heat dissipation tooth groove 220 has only one heat dissipation groove.

[0051] It should be noted that when selecting the wall surface, the main working surface when the rigid wheel and the flexible wheel are engaged can be determined, and the heat dissipation groove is provided on the main working surface to ensure that the heat dissipation groove can realize the heat dissipation function in the main heat generation area, and at the same time, the lubricating oil in the heat dissipation groove can be supplied to the closely fitted surface of the rigid wheel and the flexible wheel.

[0052] In addition, the design structure of this embodiment provides a heat dissipation groove on only one wall surface of each inner tooth 210, and the wall surface on which the heat dissipation groove is not provided can act as a "rigid support barrier" for the inner tooth 210, thereby ensuring the bending strength and fatigue life of the tooth root.

[0053] This embodiment is suitable for high-speed robot joints and other working scenarios that require consideration of heat dissipation efficiency and lightweight.

[0054] Embodiment 4

[0055] Reference Figure 4 In this embodiment, two wall surfaces of each inner tooth 210 are provided with heat dissipation grooves, and the two heat dissipation grooves on each inner tooth 210 are symmetrically provided.

[0056] Compared with the foregoing embodiments, this embodiment further increases the number of heat dissipation grooves, thereby further improving the heat dissipation capacity of the rigid wheel and the flowability of the lubricating oil. Compared with single-sided grooving, double-sided symmetric grooving can avoid the imbalance phenomenon that may be caused by single-sided grooving at high speed.

[0057] This embodiment is suitable for high-temperature working conditions.

[0058] Embodiment 5

[0059] Reference Figure 5The embodiment is a variation of the embodiment 4, in which each inner tooth 210 is also provided with a heat dissipation groove on two wall surfaces, but the heat dissipation grooves on the two sides are staggered in height. In the embodiment 4, due to the symmetrical distribution, the thickness of the inner tooth 210 is reduced on both sides of the slotted portion, which leads to the decrease of the structural stiffness of the inner tooth 210 and may cause the problem of the fracture of the inner tooth 210. By staggering the height of the slotted portion, the excessive reduction of the thickness of the inner tooth 210 at the same height is avoided.

[0060] The embodiment is suitable for high-temperature and heavy-load working conditions.

[0061] Specifically, the heat dissipation groove has a semicircular structure and penetrates the inner tooth 210. The machining difficulty of the semicircular groove is relatively low, and the structure does not cause great resistance to the flow of lubricating oil, which can reduce the residence time of the lubricating oil in the heat dissipation groove and thus take away more heat.

[0062] Further, through the penetrating structure, the lubricating oil can enter through the opening formed by the penetration at the meshing position of the flexspline and the rigid wheel.

[0063] Further, in the embodiments 1-4, preferably, the heat dissipation groove is arranged in the middle portion of the side wall 230. Since the gap at the tooth root position is small and the machining is inconvenient, and the structural stiffness at the tooth top position is low, the slotted portion is preferably arranged in the middle portion of the side wall 230 of the inner tooth 210. In addition, the middle heat dissipation groove can play a role of "lubricating oil transfer" and improve the oil film coverage rate of the tooth surface.

[0064] The utility model also proposes a harmonic reducer, the harmonic reducer includes rigid wheel structure, flexspline and wave generator as described above. Since the harmonic reducer adopts all the technical schemes of the above-mentioned embodiments, it at least has all the beneficial effects brought by the technical schemes of the above-mentioned embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0065] The above-mentioned is only the optional embodiment of the utility model, and does not limit the patent range of the utility model, and any equivalent structural transformation made by the utility model specification and the attached drawings, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields under the inventive concept of the utility model is included in the patent protection range of the utility model.
