DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0019] 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.
[0020] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 indicated, the new intelligent steer-by-wire input shaft includes a central axis 1, the right side of the central axis 1 is welded with a four square shaft rod 2, the left side of the central axis 1 is inserted with a connecting end rod 3, the top and bottom of the right side of the connecting end rod 3 are both welded with a positioning block 9, the positioning block 9 includes a fixed shell 10, the inner cavity of the fixed shell 10 is slidingly connected with a support slide plate 11, the inner side of the support slide plate 11 is fixedly connected with a support spring 13, and the outer side of the support slide plate 11 is welded with a positioning pin 12.
[0021] Further, the top and bottom of the left side of the central axis 1 are both provided with a positioning slot 6, and the outer side of the inner cavity of the positioning slot 6 is provided with a positioning opening 7. The middle of the left side of the central axis 1 is provided with a limiting slot 5, and the outer side of the positioning pin 12 penetrates the fixed shell 10 and the central axis 1 in sequence.
[0022] The outer side of the positioning pin 12 is provided with a chamfer, and the front and back sides of the four square shaft rod 2 are both provided with a positioning slot 4. The middle of the right side of the connecting end rod 3 is welded with a mounting plug 8, and the right side of the mounting plug 8 is provided with a chamfer. The connecting end rod 3 includes a connecting seat 14, the left side of the connecting seat 14 is welded with a connecting plugboard 16, and the right side of the connecting plugboard 16 is provided with a connecting slot 15.
[0023] In actual manufacturing, the traditional input shaft adopts spline structure adjustment to four square shaft rod 2 structure, directly adopts cold heading forming, and according to the deformation of the material, the four square structure is designed to meet the strength requirement after cold heading, canceling the quenching and tempering treatment, effectively reducing the machining process, improving the production efficiency and reducing the cost. When the hole diameter of the connecting slot 15 on the connecting plug plate 16 cannot meet the installation requirements and needs to be replaced, the positioning pin 12 on the upper and lower sides is pushed inward to move out of the positioning opening 7, then the connecting plug plate 16 is pulled to the left to separate the connecting seat 14 from the middle shaft 1, then the connecting end rod 3 meeting the hole diameter requirement is taken out, the installation plug 8 and the positioning block 9 on the right side of the new connecting seat 14 are respectively aligned with the limiting slot 5 and the positioning slot 6 on the middle shaft 1 and are pushed inward with force, when completely inserted, the supporting spring 13 releases the elastic force to push the positioning pin 12 into the positioning opening 7 for installation and positioning, so that the connecting end rod 3 can be replaced alone, without the need to replace the entire input shaft, effectively reducing the replacement cost.
