Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gearbox transmission, specifically to a planetary dual-shaft reduction device for a double-screw oil press. Background Technology
[0002] The twin-screw oil press, as a highly efficient and energy-saving oil extraction device, is widely used in the pressing process of vegetable oilseeds. Its core structure consists of two counter-rotating spiral shafts that squeeze the oil out of the feed through continuously increasing pressure within the press cage. Due to its high oil extraction efficiency, excellent oil yield, and low residual oil content in the dried cake, the twin-screw oil press has been widely used in recent years in the processing of various high-oil-content crops such as peanuts, walnuts, and tea seeds.
[0003] However, in practical applications, the gearbox design of the double-screw oil press has the following technical problems:
[0004] The oil pressing process of a twin-screw oil press requires a close center distance between the screw shafts to achieve uniform compression and efficient pressing of the material within the pressing chamber. However, in traditional gearboxes, the arrangement of the two output shafts must meet the requirement of a close center distance, which limits the installation space of the output shafts and makes it difficult to guarantee assembly accuracy.
[0005] Because the center distance of the output shaft is relatively close, the support structure design of the output shaft in traditional gearboxes often cannot balance strength and rigidity. It is easy for vibration or uneven load to cause transmission instability, which affects the continuous operation efficiency of the oil press. Utility Model Content
[0006] The main objective of this invention is to provide a planetary dual-shaft reduction device for a twin-screw oil press, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0008] The transmission box is equipped with a first output shaft and a second output shaft that are driven by gear meshing. A double output bearing seat is fixed at the end of the transmission box. The ends of the first output shaft and the second output shaft rotate against the double output bearing seat through bearings. The other end of the first output shaft is connected to the transmission shaft and rotates through the first bearing seat.

Detailed Implementation
[0028] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a planetary dual-shaft reduction device for a double-screw oil press includes a planetary gear reducer 2, a transmission box 3 on one side of the planetary gear reducer 2, a flywheel 1 fixedly mounted on the input shaft 201 at one end of the planetary gear reducer 2, and a transmission shaft 202 at the other end connected to the first output shaft 301 in the transmission box 3.
[0029] The transmission box 3 is provided with a first output shaft 301 and a second output shaft 302 that are driven by gear meshing. A double output bearing seat 303 is fixed at the end of the transmission box 3. The ends of the first output shaft 301 and the second output shaft 302 rotate against the double output bearing seat 303 through bearings. The other end of the first output shaft 301 is connected to the transmission shaft 202 through the first bearing seat 304 and rotates. The other end of the second output shaft 302 rotates against the transmission box 3 through the second bearing seat 306.
[0030] The flywheel 1 stores kinetic energy, stabilizes the rotational speed, reduces motor load fluctuations, and ensures the stability of the oil pressing process. It is fixedly connected to the input shaft 201 of the planetary gear reducer 2.
[0031] The planetary gear reducer 2 serves as the main reduction device, reducing the high-speed rotation of the motor output and amplifying the torque to meet the high torque requirements of oil pressing. Its input end receives power from the motor via the input shaft 201. Its output end transmits the reduced power to the first output shaft 301 of the transmission box 3 via the transmission shaft 202.
[0032] The transmission box 3 further transmits and distributes power to the two output shafts, achieving synchronous operation of the double helical shafts. The first output shaft 301 is connected to the transmission shaft 202 of the planetary gear reducer, serving as the main power output shaft. The second output shaft 302 meshes with the first output shaft through gears, achieving synchronous rotation and ensuring that the two output shafts rotate in opposite directions.
[0033] The dual output bearing housing 303 supports the ends of the first output shaft 301 and the second output shaft 302, ensuring their stability and alignment during transmission. The dual bearing support structure enhances load-bearing capacity and operational smoothness.
[0034] Operation: The motor drives the flywheel to rotate via a belt. The flywheel is connected to the input shaft 201 of the planetary gear reducer, initiating power input. The reducer converts the high-speed, low-torque motor power into a low-speed, high-torque output. Power is transmitted from the reducer's output shaft to the first output shaft of the transmission box. Through gear transmission, the second output shaft receives power output synchronized with the first output shaft. The first and second output shafts respectively drive the two spiral shafts of the twin-screw oil press, completing the material pressing process.
[0035] The synchronous operation of the two output shafts is achieved through gear meshing, ensuring uniform pressure distribution during oil pressing. Multiple bearing support structures enhance the rigidity and stability of the overall system. A planetary gear reducer and transmission box combine to achieve high-ratio speed reduction, meeting the high torque requirements of the oil press. The rational layout of components minimizes space occupation, facilitating equipment installation and maintenance.
[0036] Preferably, a connecting cylinder 4 is provided between the transmission box 3 and the planetary gear reducer 2. One end of the connecting cylinder 4 is fixedly mounted on the transmission box 3, and the other end is fixedly connected to the planetary gear reducer 2 by flange bolts.
[0037] Connecting cylinder 4 serves as an intermediate support structure, effectively enhancing the rigidity and torsional resistance of the entire reduction gear, preventing misalignment or loosening due to vibration during operation. The flange bolt connection ensures coaxiality and alignment between the planetary gear reducer 2 and the transmission box 3, contributing to smooth power transmission. The flange connection design allows for easy disassembly, replacement, or maintenance of the reducer, improving equipment maintainability. Under high-speed or heavy-load conditions, connecting cylinder 4 can help share some of the torque load transmitted from the reducer to the transmission box, extending the life of bearings and shafts.
[0038] Preferably, a support base 305 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the transmission box 3, and the second bearing seat 306 is fixed inside the support base 305;
[0039] The gear on the second output shaft 302 is located inside the support 305, which stores lubricating oil for gear meshing lubrication.
[0040] Support 305 supports the second bearing housing 306, ensuring stable rotation of the second output shaft 302. This enhances the overall rigidity of the transmission box structure and prevents deformation or eccentricity caused by gravity or vibration.
[0041] The support base 305 can store a suitable amount of lubricating oil to ensure continuous lubrication of the gear meshing area. This effectively reduces gear wear, improves transmission efficiency, and extends the service life of the equipment.
[0042] Preferably, the gearbox 3 has corresponding arc grooves on the gearbox base and gearbox cover, and the dual output bearing seat 303 is installed in the arc groove.
[0043] The bidirectional semicircular ring 3032 in the dual output bearing housing 303 is fixed with semicircular rings 3031 at both ends. The semicircular rings 3031 are used to fix the first output shaft 301 and the second output shaft 302 at both ends of the bidirectional semicircular ring 3032 for rotation.
[0044] A bearing is provided between the first output shaft 301, the second output shaft 302, and the dual output bearing housing 303.
[0045] The semicircular ring 3031 and the bidirectional semicircular ring 3032 are positioned by a hidden pin, and the two ends of the semicircular ring 3031 and the bidirectional semicircular ring 3032 are locked and fixed by bolts and nuts.
[0046] The half-type structure allows the bearing housing to be opened without disassembling the output shaft, facilitating bearing replacement or shaft clearance adjustment. This reduces equipment downtime and improves maintenance efficiency.
[0047] A concealed pin positioning hole is provided between the semi-circular ring and the double-sided semi-circular ring to ensure coaxiality and alignment during assembly. This prevents bearing misalignment, which can lead to uneven load, wear, or even burnout. Multiple sets of bolts and nuts are used for tightening to enhance the overall rigidity of the structure and prevent loosening during high-speed operation.
[0048] The arc-shaped grooves on the housing and cover match the outer contour of the dual output bearing housing, forming a good fit and support. This helps to distribute the load and prevent localized stress concentration.
[0049] Preferably, a plurality of end caps 3033 are fixedly provided at the end of the dual output bearing housing 303, and a lip seal ring is provided inside the end cap 3033. The lip seal ring in the end cap 3033 abuts against the first output shaft 301 and the second output shaft 302.
[0050] When the output shaft rotates, the lip seal remains firmly against the shaft surface due to its elastic force, thus achieving the following functions: preventing lubricating oil from the transmission housing from leaking out through the gap between the bearing housing and the output shaft; effectively isolating external contaminants such as dust, moisture, and particulate matter from entering the bearing cavity; and maintaining the lubrication of the bearing and gear pair, extending their service life.
[0051] The above embodiments are merely preferred technical solutions of this utility model and should not be considered as limitations on this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model should be the technical solution described in the claims, including equivalent substitutions of the technical features described in the claims. That is, equivalent substitutions and improvements within this scope are also within the protection scope of this utility model.
