TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to gear box technical field, especially relates to an industrial gear box fan shroud. BACKGROUND
[0002] The gear box generates a large amount of heat when running in industrial production.If heat dissipation is not timely, the gear box will malfunction due to high temperature, resulting in shortened service life. In order to improve the heat dissipation capacity of the gear box. Usually install a fan on the high-speed shaft of the gear box to dissipate heat. In the gear box system, the fan cover body bears double core functions: protecting rotating parts and optimizing heat dissipation airflow. Although the existing fan cover body has basic protection capability, it has significant defects:
[0003] A. The traditional cover body is usually fixed by integral welding or bolt multi-point fixing design, which leads to long time and special tools for disassembly. If rust or deformation occurs, it is more difficult to separate. When maintaining, the whole needs to be hoisted, which increases downtime;
[0004] B. The hoisting point design is not considered, and additional support is needed during transportation;
[0005] C. The existing cover body is prone to structural failure during transportation or dragging, which directly affects the service life of the fan.
[0006] Therefore, it is of great significance to develop an industrial gear box fan shroud. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL
[0007] The utility model aims at providing an industrial gear box fan shroud to solve the problems in the prior art.
[0008] The technical scheme adopted by the utility model to achieve the purpose is as follows: an industrial gear box fan shroud, a fan is fixed on the high-speed shaft of the industrial gear box. The fan is contained in the fan shroud. The fan shroud is a dustpan-shaped structure enclosed by the top surface and three side surfaces. The fan shroud as a whole presents a hollow cuboid configuration with one end open and the bottom surface missing. The four side surfaces of the cuboid are sequentially marked as first to fourth side surfaces. The first side surface of the fan shroud is completely open, and forms a fan access channel together with the missing bottom surface. The third side surface of the fan shroud is provided with a high-speed shaft avoiding hole. The high-speed shaft avoiding hole extends along the vertical direction, and the bottom forms a notched open end. The second side surface and the fourth side surface are symmetrically welded with mounting support plates outside. The mounting support plates are provided with long strip mounting holes and lifting threaded holes on the plate surface. The long strip mounting holes extend along the vertical direction, and the bottom forms a notched open end.
[0009] Further, the wall thickness of the fan shroud is 5mm.
[0010] Further, the inner wall of the fan shroud is provided with reinforcing ribs.
[0011] Further, the thickness of the mounting support plate is 10 mm.
[0012] The utility model discloses further disclose a gear box, including the fan guard according to any one of claims 1~4. The front and back sides of the industrial gear box are fixed with screw rod. The fan guard is arranged at the side of the industrial gear box. The mounting support plate is vertically lowered and clamped into the screw rod through the long strip mounting hole. The screw rod is screwed with the nut. The nut compresses the mounting support plate and the industrial gear box. The fan guard covers the fan. The high speed shaft extends out of the inner chamber of the fan guard through the high speed shaft avoiding hole.
[0013] The technical effect of the utility model is self-evident:
[0014] A. The simple and practical, safe and reliable, convenient field operation's spare part is more applicable to the severe working condition environment;
[0015] B. The fan guard is simple to install and disassemble, and convenient for field operation. The fan guard can be installed and disassembled individually without moving the entire transmission equipment.
[0016] C. The increased wall thickness and the surrounding reinforcing ribs ensure that the fan guard is not deformed and damaged in the case of dragging during transportation, heavy object falling and hitting during use. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
