[0034] (Example 1)

[0035] See Figure 1 and Figure 3A speed reducer includes a housing 1, an input shaft 2, an output shaft 3, and an intermediate gear shaft system. The housing 1 has an output mounting hole on the left and an input mounting hole on the right. The input shaft 2 is axially rotatable and mounted at the center of the input mounting hole, and the output shaft 3 is axially rotatable and mounted at the center of the output mounting hole. The intermediate gear shaft system is located inside the housing 1 and is connected to both the input shaft 2 and the output shaft 3. Four feet 4 are provided on the rear side of the housing 1. Each foot 4 has a bolt through hole, allowing the speed reducer housing to be fixed to the mounting position from the side with bolts. Compared to flange fixing, this method is easier to install, less prone to breakage, and significantly improves the fixing strength. Because the distance from the output shaft to the mounting base is reduced, the size of the friction wheel is limited, increasing friction and improving transmission efficiency.

[0036] Furthermore, the upper side of the enclosure 1 has an opening, and a cover 1-1 is provided over the opening. When maintenance is required, the cover 1-1 can be opened for easy observation and maintenance.

[0037] Further details can be found here. Figure 2 The input mounting hole is fitted with a connecting flange 5, one end of which is fixed to the motor and the other end to the housing 1; the input shaft 2 is mounted inside the connecting flange 5 via the first bearing 2-1, and the input shaft 2 is equipped with an input shaft drive gear 2-2.

[0038] The intermediate gear shaft system includes a second drive shaft 6 and a third drive shaft 7. The input shaft 2, the second drive shaft 6, the third drive shaft 7, and the output shaft 3 are arranged in parallel to each other. The second drive shaft 6 is provided with a first drive gear 6-1 that meshes with the input shaft drive gear 2-2. The second drive shaft 6 is also provided with a second drive gear 6-2. The third drive shaft 7 is provided with a third drive gear 7-1 that meshes with the second drive gear 6-2. The third drive shaft 7 is also provided with a fourth drive gear 7-2. The output shaft 3 is provided with an output shaft drive gear 3-5 that meshes with the fourth drive gear 7-2.

[0039] Inside housing 1, there is a middle partition plate 1-2. The second drive shaft 6 is mounted on housing 1 and middle partition plate 1-2 via a second bearing 6-3 and a third bearing 6-4. The third drive shaft 7 is mounted on housing 1 via a fourth bearing 7-3 and a fifth bearing 7-4. The third drive shaft 7 passes through middle partition plate 1-2. Middle partition plate 1-2 has a sixth bearing 7-5, on which the third drive shaft 7 is mounted. A seventh bearing 3-6 and an eighth bearing 3-7 are respectively mounted on the output mounting hole and middle partition plate 1-2. The output shaft 3 is mounted on the seventh bearing 3-6 and the eighth bearing 3-7.

[0040] Furthermore, a first bushing 7-6 is fitted onto the third drive shaft 7, with the first bushing 7-6 axially positioned between the fourth bearing 7-3 and the third drive gear 7-1. A second bushing 3-8 is also fitted onto the output shaft 3, with the second bushing 3-8 axially positioned between the output shaft drive gear 3-5 and the seventh bearing 3-6. Adding these bushings stabilizes the reducer structure, effectively reduces vibration during operation, improves transmission stability, and extends the reducer's service life.

[0041] A speed reducer friction wheel assembly includes a friction wheel 3-3 fitted onto an output shaft 3, with a tension sleeve 3-4 positioned between the output shaft 3 and the friction wheel 3-3. Because the gearbox housing 1 is fixedly mounted from the rear, the diameter of the friction wheel 3-3 is limited by the size of the gearbox housing 1. To ensure that the friction wheel 3-3 does not detach from the output shaft 3, the friction wheel 3-3 needs further reinforcement. Two fastening bolts 3-1 and a pressure plate 3-2 are provided at the end of the output shaft 3 furthest from the housing 1. The fastening bolts 3-1 fix the pressure plate 3-2 to one end of the output shaft 3. The pressure plate 3-2 fits tightly against the friction wheel 3-3 and the tension sleeve 3-4, enhancing the fixing effect between the output shaft 3 and the friction wheel 3-3 and improving the stability of the equipment.

[0042] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of this utility model. It should be understood that the above descriptions are merely specific embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
