Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural machinery components, specifically an agricultural machinery transmission shaft protection mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Agricultural machinery driveshafts are power transmission devices used in modern agricultural machinery. Their main function is to transmit power from tractors or other agricultural machinery to implements such as seeders and harvesters, enabling the machinery to operate normally. Agricultural machinery driveshafts typically consist of universal joint forks, universal joints, telescopic tubes, and protective sleeves. They feature universal joint characteristics, allowing the input and output ends to be on different planes, and can extend and retract within a specified range during operation. This design enables the driveshaft to adapt to different working conditions and angular changes, ensuring the stability and reliability of power transmission.
[0003] To prevent mud, weeds, and other debris from getting caught in the universal joint forks and damaging the driveshaft, existing agricultural machinery driveshafts typically have protective sleeves installed. These sleeves allow the universal joint forks to move within the sleeves. However, existing agricultural machinery driveshafts still have the following problems during use:
[0004] The existing protective sleeve is a sealed sleeve, which prevents mud, weeds and other debris from getting into the universal joint fork on the drive shaft. However, the gas inside the protective sleeve is easily affected by the temperature, which can hinder the use of the drive shaft and reduce its performance. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a protective mechanism for the drive shaft of agricultural machinery for use in the field of existing agricultural machinery components. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, the existing protective sleeve is a sealed sleeve, which makes the gas inside the protective sleeve easily affected by temperature, hindering the use of the drive shaft and reducing the performance of the drive shaft.

[0012] Preferably, each of the rotating cavities is movably fitted with a rotating ring, and multiple traction arc blocks are fixedly fitted on the rotating ring. The traction arc blocks are movably fitted to the rotating opening, and one end of each traction arc block is fixedly fitted to the traction ring.
[0013] Preferably, the protective sleeve is fixedly assembled on the drive shaft and the connecting shaft, and the first universal joint fork and the second universal joint fork are both located inside the protective sleeve.

Each second universal joint fork 13 is fixedly fitted with a connecting shaft 23. Adjustment mechanisms are mounted on both the transmission shaft 10 and the connecting shaft 23. The adjustment mechanisms include external threaded sleeves 21, which are respectively fixedly mounted with… The guide rods 31 are symmetrically fixedly mounted on the end faces of the external threaded sleeves 21, which are mounted on the drive shaft 10 and the connecting shaft 23. Each guide rod 31 has a limit block 32 fixedly mounted on one end. Each guide rod 31 has a movable block 33, and each movable block 33 has a traction ring 40 fixedly mounted on its end face. Each traction ring 40 has a conical block 41 fixedly mounted on its end face. The movable blocks 33 move on the guide rods 31, causing the movable blocks 33 to drive the conical blocks 41 on the traction ring 40 to move.
[0034] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 One end of each conical block 41 is fixedly fitted with a limiting plate 43. Each external threaded sleeve 21 is threadedly fitted with an internal threaded collar 22. Each internal threaded collar 22 has a rotating cavity 50 inside.
