[0002] Planetary gearboxes are widely used industrial products that can reduce motor speed while increasing output torque. They can be used as components in industries such as lifting, excavation, transportation, and construction. Patent application number 202320576283.9 discloses a novel planetary gearbox flange shaft connection structure, including symmetrically arranged flange shaft bodies. A positioning structure for positioning and assembly is provided between the symmetrical flange shaft bodies. The positioning structure includes a positioning column, and a fixing component is integrally provided at the right end of the positioning column.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0025] A reducer flange shaft connection structure includes a first flange shaft 1, a second flange shaft 5 located on the right side of the first flange shaft 1, a connecting device 3 that is movably connected between the first flange shaft 1 and the second flange shaft 5, a plurality of bolts 2 that are movably connected to the right end of the first flange shaft 1, the plurality of bolts 2 being movably connected to the second flange shaft 5, nuts 4 being threaded onto the outer surface of the plurality of bolts 2, and the plurality of nuts 4 being located on the right side of the second flange shaft 5.

[0026] In this embodiment, the connecting device 3 includes a connector 31. Three arc-shaped protrusions 32 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connector 31. The three arc-shaped protrusions 32 are distributed in a ring at equal intervals. Three sliding grooves 35 are formed on the left and right sides of the outer surface of the connector 31. A second circular groove 34 is formed on the inner wall of each of the six sliding grooves 35. The six sliding grooves 35 and the three arc-shaped protrusions 32 are staggered. A clamping mechanism 33 is installed inside the connector 31. The clamping mechanism 33 includes three first-order clamping blocks 331 and three second-order clamping blocks 332. A first-order inclined surface 333 is provided at the ends of the three first-order clamping blocks 331 that are far apart from each other. A second-order inclined surface 334 is provided at the ends of the three second-order clamping blocks 332 that are far apart from each other. The ends of the three second-order clamping blocks 332 that are close to each other are fixedly connected. The fixed connection has a limiting part 335. The three first-position locking blocks 331 are all fixedly connected to the limiting part 335 at their close ends. The six limiting parts 335 are all fixedly connected to a spring 336 at one end. The six springs 336 are respectively located in the six second-position circular grooves 34. The six limiting parts 335 are slidably connected to the six sliding grooves 35. The right end of the first flange shaft 1 and the left end of the second flange shaft 5 are both opened with a first-position circular groove 11. The inner walls of the two first-position circular grooves 11 are each opened with three arc-shaped limiting grooves 13 and three locking grooves 12. The three arc-shaped protrusions 32 are slidably connected to the three arc-shaped limiting grooves 13. The three first-position locking blocks 331 are respectively inserted into the three locking grooves 12 of the first flange shaft 1, and the three second-position locking blocks 332 are respectively inserted into the three locking grooves 12 of the second flange shaft 5.

[0027] With the above scheme: the left end of connector 31 is inserted into flange shaft 1, the right end of connector 31 is inserted into flange shaft 5, the first locking block 331 limits the connection between connector 31 and flange shaft 1, and the second locking block 332 limits the connection between connector 31 and flange shaft 5. Thus, the three can be connected together simply by insertion, which improves the efficiency and convenience of connection.

[0028] It should be noted that this utility model describes a reducer flange shaft connection structure, in which the left end of the connector 31 is slowly inserted into the first flange shaft 1. During the insertion process, the three first-position locking blocks 331 inside the connector 31 begin to function. These first-position locking blocks 331 are initially in a naturally extended position. When they contact the inner wall of the first flange shaft 1, they are gradually squeezed into the pre-set receiving space inside the connector 31 due to the squeezing action of the inner wall of the first flange shaft 1. This process requires the operator to apply a certain insertion force to ensure that the connector 31 can smoothly enter the first flange shaft 1. As the connector 31 continues to be inserted, when the position of the first-position locking blocks 331 reaches the locking groove 12 at a specific position on the inner wall of the first flange shaft 1, the situation changes. At this time, the spring that was originally in a compressed state... Spring 336 begins to exert its elastic effect. Having stored elastic potential energy during its previous compression, spring 336 releases this energy, generating an outward pushing force that acts on the first locking block 331. Under this force, the first locking block 331 rapidly extends outward along the pre-designed track inside the connector 31, precisely entering the slot 12 inside the first flange shaft 1. Once the first locking block 331 is fully engaged in the slot 12, a reliable mechanical lock is formed between the connector 31 and the first flange shaft 1, completing the rapid connection between them. After completing the connection between the connector 31 and the first flange shaft 1, the next step is to connect the connector 31 to the second flange shaft 5. In the connection operation, the right end of the connector 31 is slowly inserted into the second flange shaft 5 in the same manner. At this time, the three second locking blocks 332 on the right side of the connector 31 begin to play a similar role. The spring 336 exerts its elasticity, pushing the second locking blocks 332 outward and into the slots 12 on the inner wall of the second flange shaft 5, thereby completing the quick connection between the connector 31 and the second flange shaft 5. Since the first locking block 331 and the second locking block 332 are respectively locked into the slots 12 of the first flange shaft 1 and the second flange shaft 5, a reliable mechanical lock is formed, which can effectively prevent relative displacement between the flange shaft and the connector, ensuring the stability of the entire connection structure. It can withstand greater external forces and torques. This connection method is simple to operate, requiring no complicated tools or cumbersome steps, greatly shortening assembly time and improving production efficiency. The end of the first locking block 331 that contacts the first flange shaft 1 is provided with a first inclined surface 333, and the end of the second locking block 332 that contacts the second flange shaft 5 is provided with a second inclined surface 334. During installation, when the first locking block 331 and the second locking block 332 contact the first flange shaft 1 and the second flange shaft 5 respectively, due to the presence of the inclined surfaces, the locking blocks can be squeezed and compressed more smoothly into the connecting piece 31 when they contact the inner wall of the flange shaft, reducing the resistance during the insertion process and further improving the convenience of installation.
