[0030] A gear positioning mechanism for positioning a gear m when performing gear m torsion test, referring to Figures 1-6 , which comprises a support table 1 for placing the gear m to be tested, a limiting column 2 and a positioning piece 3, wherein the gear m is placed on the top surface of the support table 1, the limiting column 2 is arranged on the support table 1 and matches the shaft hole of the gear m to limit the position of the gear m on the support table 1, the limiting column 2 is at least partially above the top surface of the support table 1, the limiting column 2 is perpendicular to the top surface of the support table 1, and the gear m can move along the limiting column 2. The positioning piece 3 has at least one positioning groove 31 for engaging with the tooth part m1 of the gear m on the side close to the limiting column 2, for limiting the circumferential rotation of the gear m, and the limiting column 2 and the positioning groove 31 have a predetermined spacing, and the positioning groove 31 is arranged in extension along the extension direction of the limiting column 2, so that the tooth part m1 can be clamped into the positioning groove 31 in the process of moving the gear m from the top end of the limiting column 2 to the support table 1.
[0031] In the embodiment, the gear m can be moved on the support table 1 along the limiting column 2, and the position of the gear m on the support table 1 is limited by the limiting column 2, the limiting column 2 has a preset interval with the positioning groove 31, and the positioning groove 31 is arranged in extension along the extension direction of the limiting column 2. Therefore, when the gear m is installed on the support table 1, the gear m can be naturally inserted into the positioning groove 31 while the gear m slides from the end of the limiting column 2 away from the support table 1 to the support table 1, so that the gear m is conveniently installed and accurately positioned on the support table 1, the fast and accurate positioning of the gear m is realized, the efficiency of the torsion test of the gear m is improved, and meanwhile, when the gear m is disassembled from the support table 1, the gear m can be moved away from the positioning groove 31 while the gear m is moved along the distal end of the limiting column 2, so that the gear m is quickly disassembled, and the efficiency of the torsion test of the gear m is further improved.
[0032] In the embodiment, the gear m and the limiting column 2 can be gap-fitted, that is, the shaft hole size of the gear m is slightly larger than the size of the limiting column 2, so that the limiting column 2 not only limits the position of the gear m in the axial direction, but also facilitates the movement of the gear m relative to the limiting column 2.
[0033] In the embodiment, the positioning groove 31 of the gear m is engaged with the gear m, that is, the groove wall of the positioning groove 31 is in contact with the gear m, so that the gear m cannot rotate in the circumferential direction under the action of an external force. The positioning groove 31 is provided in a plurality of forms, and the plurality of positioning grooves 31 are arranged in the circumferential direction of the gear m, so that the positioning member 3 and the gear m are formed in a multi-point engagement, which helps to improve the reliability of the positioning of the gear m.
[0034] It should be noted that, in actual operation, in order to enable the gear m to be smoothly inserted into the positioning groove 31 when the gear m is moved along the limiting column 2, it is necessary to ensure that the gear m is aligned with the positioning groove 31 when the gear m is moved, that is, the alignment state. However, since the process of installing the gear m is manually operated, the accuracy of the movement track of the gear m on the limiting column 2 cannot be guaranteed, and errors, that is, misalignment states, are likely to occur, so that the gear m cannot be smoothly inserted into the positioning groove 31. Therefore, in order to enable the gear m to be smoothly inserted into the positioning groove 31 when the movement track of the gear m has an error, the gear m is arranged in rotational cooperation with the limiting column 2, so that when the gear m is in a misalignment state with the positioning groove 31, the gear m can be rotated to enable the gear m to be in an alignment state with the positioning groove 31. Specifically, the limiting column 2 can be made of a low-friction material or have an internal bearing, so as to allow the gear m to be rotated relative to the limiting column 2 before being inserted into the positioning groove 31.
[0035] Embodiment 2
[0036] A gear torsion test device comprises the gear positioning mechanism and the torsion test mechanism of embodiment 1, and the torsion test mechanism has a test head 41 for applying external torsion to the gear m.
[0037] In this embodiment, the test head 41 is arranged in engagement with the gear m and can rotate along the circumference of the gear m. The test head 41 is arranged in engagement with the gear m, which can simulate the force condition of the gear m in the transmission system and is closer to the actual use scenario of the gear m, and the engagement state of the test head 41 and the gear m can prevent the gear m from being accidentally separated from the test head 41 during high-torsion testing and reduce the risk of equipment damage.
[0038] Specifically, the torsion test mechanism comprises a driver (not shown in the figure), a rotating shaft 42 driven to rotate by the driver, and a torsion sensor (not shown in the figure) for testing the output torsion of the driver, which can be installed on the rotating shaft 42 through a shaft coupling. The rotating shaft 42 is installed on the driver, and the test head 41 is installed on the rotating shaft 42. The driver is used to drive the test head 41 to rotate to apply external torsion to the gear m. The driver is a servo motor in this embodiment. During testing, the driver works to drive the rotating shaft 42 to rotate, thereby driving the test head 41 installed on the rotating shaft 42 to rotate. When the test head 41 rotates, it applies torsion to the gear m. The torsion sensor can be connected with an external display for real-time operation.
[0039] In this embodiment, the positioning member 3 is detachably connected with the support table 1 and can be connected through bolts. Different specifications of gears m can be adapted by replacing the positioning member 3, thereby reducing the cost of equipment modification.
[0040] In this embodiment, the support table 1 is formed with a mounting cavity 11 that penetrates the support table 1. The mounting cavity 11 is used to accommodate the rotating shaft 42 and the test head 41, so that the overall structure of the test device is relatively compact. At the same time, the mounting cavity 11 can also play a protective role on the rotating shaft 42 and the test head 41, avoiding interference from the external environment. Furthermore, the rotating shaft 42 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the support table 1 corresponding to the mounting cavity 11 through a connecting member 43, which can improve the stability of the rotating shaft 42 when it rotates. The connecting member 43 is a bearing in this embodiment.
[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, but not to limit them. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent replacements to some technical features. These modifications or replacements do not change the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
