Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of motor driver technology, and in particular to a motor module for driving the rear foot pedal of an automobile. Background Technology

[0002] Electric foot pedals (also known as electric retractable pedals or smart car pedals) are electric mechanisms designed to facilitate getting in and out of vehicles. When in operation, the foot pedals are driven by a motor-driven module to fold, switching between unfolded and folded states. For rear-seat foot pedals, electric foot pedals offer a good balance of convenience for passengers to rest without sacrificing interior space.

[0003] The Chinese utility model patent with patent number ZL202322239203.3 and patent name, entitled "A Drive Structure for Automobile Foot Pedals," essentially discloses a foot pedal drive motor module. Specifically, the drive structure for automobile foot pedals discloses the following technical solution: A drive structure for automobile foot pedals includes a motor and a reducer. The motor includes a housing and a rotating shaft, with the rotating shaft rotatably passing through the housing. The reducer is connected to the motor and is located at one end of the motor. The reducer has an installation position for mounting the automobile foot pedal and includes an output shaft. The rotating shaft can drive the output shaft to rotate, thereby indirectly driving the automobile foot pedal.

[0004] When the aforementioned drive structure for car pedals is in operation, the motor starts and the motor shaft is reduced in speed by the reducer and then drives the car pedal to rotate through the output shaft, so as to switch the car pedal between the unfolded position and the folded position.

[0005] It should be noted that the above-mentioned drive structure for car pedals still has the following defects: the reducer is installed on one end of the motor housing. During operation, the motor shaft is reduced in speed by the reducer and then drives the car pedal to rotate through the output shaft. That is, the drive structure for car pedals can only drive the car pedal to rotate through one output end. This cannot guarantee the balance of force when the car pedal is driven. If the force is unbalanced, it will affect the service life of the car pedal and the smoothness of the car pedal rotation. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a car rear foot pedal drive motor module to address the shortcomings of the existing technology. This car rear foot pedal drive motor module has a novel structural design and can drive the car foot pedal to rotate smoothly.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution.

[0008] A motor module for driving a rear foot pedal in a car includes a motor module, which includes a housing and a rotor assembly and a stator assembly respectively installed inside the housing. The rotor assembly is provided with a motor shaft.

[0009] The front end of the motor shaft extends to the front end of the housing, and the rear end of the motor shaft extends to the rear end of the housing.

[0010] The front end of the housing is equipped with a front planetary reducer, and the rear end of the housing is equipped with a rear planetary reducer. The front end of the motor shaft serves as the input end of the front planetary reducer, and the rear end of the motor shaft serves as the input end of the rear planetary reducer.

[0011] The output shaft of the front planetary reducer extends forward out of the reducer housing, and the output shaft of the rear planetary reducer extends backward out of the reducer housing. The output shafts of each planetary reducer and the motor shaft are axially aligned.

[0012] Each of the output shafts is fastened with an output spline, and each output spline has a spline groove for connecting to the car pedal.

[0013] The housing is cylindrical in shape, with a front cover fitted at the front end and a rear cover fitted at the rear end. The front end of the motor shaft is rotatably mounted to the front cover via a bearing, and the rear end of the motor shaft is rotatably mounted to the rear cover via a bearing.

[0014] The front end of the front cover is provided with a front connecting part, and the reducer housing of the front planetary reducer is positioned and fitted around the front connecting part, and the reducer housing of the front planetary reducer is screwed to the front connecting part.

[0015] The rear end of the rear cover is provided with a rear connecting part, and the reducer housing of the rear planetary reducer is positioned and fitted around the rear connecting part, and the reducer housing of the rear planetary reducer is screwed to the rear connecting part.

[0016] The front end of the motor shaft is equipped with a front input gear, which meshes with the planetary gear inside the front planetary reducer.

[0017] The rear end of the motor shaft is equipped with a rear input gear, which meshes with the planetary gear inside the rear planetary reducer.

[0018] The outer diameter of the rear foot pedal drive motor module is less than 38mm, and the length of the rear foot pedal drive motor module is less than 150mm.

[0019] Compared with existing technologies, this invention has the following advantages: Specifically, during the rotation of the car's rear foot pedal, the front end of the motor shaft drives the foot pedal after being slowed down by a front planetary reducer, and the rear end of the motor shaft drives the foot pedal after being slowed down by a rear planetary reducer. That is, the output shafts of the front and rear planetary reducers directly drive the foot pedal, thus achieving synchronous dual-position drive of the foot pedal. This ensures smooth force distribution during foot pedal rotation and effectively improves the stability of the foot pedal's rotation. Therefore, the rear foot pedal drive motor module of this invention has the advantage of novel structural design and can drive the foot pedal to rotate smoothly. Attached Figure Description

[0034] In summary, through the above structural design, the rear foot pedal drive motor module of this embodiment can achieve dual-position drive of the car foot pedal through the output of a bidirectional planetary reducer. Therefore, the rear foot pedal drive motor module of this embodiment has the advantage of novel structural design and can drive the car foot pedal to rotate smoothly.
