[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Reference Figure 1-3 This utility model provides an embodiment of a fan drive shaft, comprising a shaft body 1, a connecting frame 2 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the top end of the shaft body 1, the connecting frame 2 being designed to fix a fixed shaft 3, the fixed shaft 3 being fixedly connected inside the connecting frame 2, the fixed shaft 3 being designed to allow rotation of a rotating plate 4 to the outside of the fixed shaft 3, limit rings 5 being fixedly connected to both the front and rear sides of the outside of the fixed shaft 3, the limit rings 5 being designed to prevent the fixed shaft 3 from falling off, the rotating plate 4 being rotatably connected to the outside of the fixed shaft 3, and an elastic element being fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating plate 4. The component, the elastic component, includes a connecting plate 7, which is designed to fix the spring 6. The top of the connecting plate 7 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the right side of the shaft 1. Multiple springs 6 are fixedly connected to the top of the connecting plate 7. One end of the spring 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating plate 4, and the other end of the spring 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting plate 7. A rotating shaft 8 is rotatably connected inside the shaft 1. A spiral fan blade 9 is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating shaft 8. The spiral fan blade 9 is designed to allow lubricating oil to be evenly filled to the outside of the rotating shaft 8 through the spiral fan blade 9.
[0024] like Figure 4As shown, pressing rods 10 are slidably connected to the upper and lower sides of the shaft 1. The pressing rods 10 are designed to drive the connecting rod 13 to rotate. A cavity 11 is formed inside the shaft 1, and a limiting groove 16 is formed inside the cavity 11. The limiting groove 16 is designed to allow the limiting block 15 to slide inside the limiting groove 16. A second spring 12 is set inside the cavity 11. One end of the second spring 12 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the shaft 1, and the other end of the second spring 12 is fixedly connected to the outside of the insertion block 14. The insertion block 14 is designed to engage with the inside of the slot 17. The pressing rods... One end of the connecting rod 13 is rotatably connected to the outside of the shaft 10. The connecting rod 13 is rotatably connected to the inside of the cavity 11. The other end of the connecting rod 13 is fixedly connected to the insertion block 14. The insertion block 14 is slidably connected to the inside of the shaft 1. A limiting component is fixedly connected to the outside of the insertion block 14. The limiting component includes a limiting block 15. A limiting groove 16 is slidably connected to the outside of the limiting block 15. The outside of the limiting block 15 is fixedly connected to the outside of the insertion block 14. A flange 18 is fixedly connected to the right side of the shaft 1. A slot 17 is opened on the outside of the flange 18. The outside of the insertion block 14 engages with the inside of the slot 17.
[0025] Working principle: When replacing flange 18, pulling up the pressing rod 10 causes the connecting rod 13 to rotate. This rotation causes the insertion block 14 to slide to the left, squeezing the spring 12. The spring 12 then separates the insertion block 14 from the external groove 17 of flange 18, thus disassembling flange 18. Pressing the pressing rod 10 causes the connecting rod 13 to rotate, causing the insertion block 14 to slide to the right. The insertion block 14 then squeezes the spring 12. The spring will rebound, causing the insertion block 14 to engage with the slot 17 on the outside of the flange 18, thus enabling the flange 18 to be installed. Because of the limit block 15, the insertion block 14 will not disengage from the inside of the shaft 1. When adding lubricating oil to the inside of the shaft 1, the bottle filled with lubricating oil is inserted into the inside of the shaft 1, and then the bottle enters the inside of the shaft 1 through the rotating plate 4. Because of the spring 6, when the bottle squeezes the rotating plate 4, the rotating plate 4 will also squeeze the spring 6. When the lubricating oil is added to the inside of the shaft 1, when the bottle is pulled out, the spring 6 rebounds, causing the rotating plate 4 to reset, thus achieving the automatic reset of the top rotating plate 4 while adding lubricating oil to the inside of the shaft 1.
[0026] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
