[0026] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0027] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0028] like Figure 1 - Figure 8 As shown, this application provides a quasi-constant velocity multi-pivot universal joint transmission mechanism, including a fixed bracket 1; and further including;
[0029] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the side wall of the fixed bracket 1 is provided with the universal transmission assembly 2. The universal transmission assembly 2 is used to move the fixed bracket 1. The universal transmission assembly 2 includes a first rotating shaft 201, which is movably inserted into the side wall of the fixed bracket 1. The inner wall of the first rotating shaft 201 is rotatably connected to a second rotating shaft 202, which is movably inserted into the side wall of the fixed bracket 1. By providing the universal transmission assembly 2 on the side wall of the fixed bracket 1, and by cooperating with the first rotating shaft 201 and the second rotating shaft 202 rotatably connected on the universal transmission assembly 2, the stability and speed of the rotating shaft are improved, and its applicability is increased.
[0030] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the second rotating shaft 202 has multiple sets of ball joint drive pins 203 slidably connected inside. A spring 204 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the ball joint drive pin 203, and the end of the spring 204 is fixedly connected to the second rotating shaft 202.
[0031] The ball end of the second rotating shaft 202 mates with the guide cylindrical surface of the first rotating shaft 201 and is embedded within the guide cylinder of the first rotating shaft 201, forming a linear height pair. The ball end drive pin 203 mates with the cylindrical surface of the second rotating shaft 202, forming a cylindrical pair. The ball end drive pin 203 also mates with the cylindrical guide groove of the first rotating shaft 201, forming a linear height pair. The ball end drive pins 203 are evenly installed on the spherical surface of the second rotating shaft 202, and the included angles between each ball end drive pin 203 are equal, α1 = α2 = α3, and correspond to the cylindrical guide grooves opened on the second rotating shaft 202.
[0032] The first rotating shaft 201 has a shaft groove 2031 on its side wall. The ball head drive pin 203 is slidably connected inside the shaft groove 2031. The ball head drive pin 203 is rotatably connected inside the first rotating shaft 201. By passing the ball head drive pin 203 through the shaft groove 2031 on the first rotating shaft 201 and then threading the limiting ring 205 to the side wall of the first rotating shaft 201, when the first rotating shaft 201 and the second rotating shaft 202 are in motion, the second rotating shaft 202 will rotate inside the circular groove of the first rotating shaft 201.
[0033] The side wall of the first rotating shaft 201 is threaded with a limiting ring 205.
[0034] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the inner wall of the fixed bracket 1 is provided with a stabilizing component 3. The stabilizing component 3 is used to limit the universal transmission component 2. The stabilizing component 3 includes a stabilizing rod 301, which penetrates the inner wall of the fixed bracket 1. The stabilizing rod 301 is inserted into both sides of the first rotating shaft 201 and the second rotating shaft 202. By providing the stabilizing component 3 on the inner wall of the fixed bracket 1 and by inserting the stabilizing rod 301 on the stabilizing component 3 into both sides of the first rotating shaft 201 and the second rotating shaft 202, the connection stability between the first rotating shaft 201 and the second rotating shaft 202 and the fixed bracket 1 is improved, and the situation where the rotating shaft is easily detached from the fixed bracket 1 when rotating is avoided.
[0035] Stabilizing grooves 3011 are provided on both sides of the first rotating shaft 201 and the second rotating shaft 202, and stabilizing rods 301 are inserted into the inside of the stabilizing grooves 3011.
[0036] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, a connecting rod 302 is fixedly connected to the end of the stabilizer bar 301, and the connecting rod 302 is slidably connected inside the fixed bracket 1.
[0037] Specifically, such as Figure 1 - Figure 8As shown, the quasi-constant velocity multi-pivot universal joint transmission mechanism can smoothly transmit the speed of the input shaft at a high speed of 30000° / s (5000r / min), while the speed test curve of the output shaft of the two-pivot universal joint transmission mechanism shows obvious speed jumps and vibration burrs. In fact, after analysis and testing, the dynamic stability of the transmission of the quasi-constant velocity multi-pivot universal joint transmission mechanism is more than 10 times that of the two-pivot universal joint transmission mechanism.
[0038] A shaft 305 runs through the side wall of the fixed bracket 1. A gear 304 is fixedly connected to the end of the shaft 305. The gear 304 is rotatably connected inside the fixed bracket 1. A rack 303 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting rod 302. The rack 303 and the gear 304 mesh with each other. By rotating the shaft 305 and the gear 304, the gear 304 can drive the two sets of racks 303 to move to both sides. At this time, the rack 303 will drive the stabilizing rod 301 to retract inside the fixed bracket 1, so that the fixed bracket 1 can be moved and removed.
[0039] The specific solution is as follows: First, the ball head drive pin 203 on the second rotating shaft 202 passes through the shaft groove 2031 on the first rotating shaft 201. Then, the limiting ring 205 is threaded to the side wall of the first rotating shaft 201. Next, the first rotating shaft 201 and the second rotating shaft 202 pass through the two sets of fixed brackets 1 respectively, and the shaft 305 and the gear 304 are rotated. At the same time, the gear 304 can drive the two sets of racks 303 to move towards each other. At this time, the racks 303 will drive the stabilizing rod 301 to be inserted into the stabilizing grooves 3011 on both sides of the first rotating shaft 201 and the second rotating shaft 202 for fixation. Finally, the fixed bracket 1 is fixedly installed in the device.
