[0002] US6775976B1 discloses a zero rotation hydrostatic transmission mechanism, which uses an internal expansion tank structure, as described in its specification, the expansion tank (91) is installed in the housing of the transmission body, near the driving gear (94), since the expansion tank needs to pass the gas in it to the atmosphere, and also needs to prevent the backflow of external liquid solid substances, a gas permeable valve needs to be installed at the gas passage hole, which needs to be waterproof, dustproof and gas permeable. Extreme harsh or changeable environmental conditions can cause pressure changes, causing stress on the seals of outdoor equipment, resulting in seal failure, allowing dirt to enter the equipment and damage sensitive electronic components.

[0003] The above-mentioned gas permeable valve installed on the expansion tank needs to be tested by multiple independent laboratories and obtain relevant qualifications before installation and use, for example, protection level test, i.e. the ability to prevent particles and water from entering; temperature test, i.e. durability test in high temperature environment and failure test in low temperature environment; vibration resistance test, flammability test, salt spray test, ultraviolet resistance test, corrosive gas test, etc. Since the expansion tank is installed inside the housing, the placement of the expansion tank may affect the main transmission structure components, so the detection is extremely strict. This greatly increases the production cost and time cost.

[0004] And the internal expansion tank needs to be disassembled for maintenance and replacement, which is more troublesome, and also affects the transmission performance and sealing performance of the transmission as a whole. SUMMARY

[0005] The utility model intends to provide a wheel edge hydrostatic transmission continuously variable transmission of external expansion tank which can be easily repaired and replaced, and reduce production cost.

[0006] The wheel edge hydrostatic transmission continuously variable transmission of external expansion tank in the scheme comprises a transmission body, an external expansion tank is arranged outside the transmission body, the external expansion tank is fixedly installed on the shell of the transmission body, and the tank body of the expansion tank is in communication with the inside of the transmission body.

[0007] The external expansion tank is arranged outside the shell of the transmission body, without occupying the space inside the transmission body, and the transmission structure inside the transmission body will not be affected if the external expansion tank fails, and the external expansion tank can be repaired and replaced without disassembling the transmission as a whole.

[0008] Further, the external expansion tank is provided with a vent pipe, one end of which is communicated with the external expansion tank, and the other end is communicated with the outside.

[0009] Further, the tank body of the external expansion tank is fixed to the shell of the transmission body by bolts.

[0010] Further, the external expansion tank is connected with the shell of the transmission body through the self-provided vent joint.

[0011] Further, the shell of the transmission body comprises a large gear machine shell, and a vent passage is formed in the large gear machine shell, BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
