[0002] A speed reducer, also known as a gearbox, is an independent component consisting of gear transmission, worm transmission, or gear and worm transmission enclosed in a rigid housing. It is commonly used as a speed reduction transmission device between the prime mover and the working machine. It plays a role in matching speed and transmitting torque between the prime mover and the working machine or actuator. It is widely used in modern machinery. Speed reducers need to be maintained regularly after a period of use.
[0003] For example, CN 219489467 U discloses a lifting device for speed reducer maintenance. Although this device uses two motor power shafts to drive two threaded rods to rotate, which in turn pushes two sliding blocks and two limit rods to rise, and the two sliding blocks drive the support plate to rise, the support plate can lift the speed reducer during the rising process, thus facilitating the maintenance of the speed reducer, in actual operation, the speed reducer is directly placed on the top of the lifting plate. When limiting the speed reducer, external auxiliary tools are required to ensure the stability of the speed reducer during maintenance, which increases the operation steps and reduces maintenance efficiency. Therefore, this utility model provides a lifting device for speed reducer maintenance. Summary of the Invention

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.
[0021] The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present invention, but should not be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. The conditions in the embodiments can be further adjusted according to specific conditions, and simple improvements to the method of the present invention under the premise of the concept of the present invention are all within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
[0022] Please refer to Figures 1-4. This utility model provides a lifting device for speed reducer maintenance, including a base 1. Support frames 2 are provided on both sides of the top of the base 1. A lifting plate 4 is slidably connected between the two support frames 2. A motor 3 is fixedly connected to the top of each support frame 2. A drive screw 202 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor 3. A lifting block 201 is fixedly connected to one end of the lifting plate 4 via an external thread on the drive screw 202. Limiting teeth 203 are provided on both sides of the inner cavity of the support frame 2. Electric telescopic rods 204 are provided at both ends of the lifting block 201 facing the limiting teeth 203. Fixed teeth 205 that are adapted to the limiting teeth 203 are provided on the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 204. Two auxiliary grooves 401 are provided at both ends of the lifting plate 4. A guide rail 206 that is adapted to the auxiliary groove 401 is provided on the side of each support frame 2 facing the auxiliary groove 401.
[0023] The motor 3 is started, driving the screw 202 to rotate. Through the threaded transmission, the lifting block 201 moves up and down along the support frame 2. The lifting block 201 drives the lifting plate 4 to move synchronously. The auxiliary groove 401 cooperates with the guide rail 206 to ensure that the lifting process is smooth and without deviation. When the lifting plate 4 reaches the target height, the electric telescopic rod 204 extends, so that the fixed tooth 205 and the limit tooth 203 engage and lock the position. During maintenance work, the electric telescopic rod 204 remains extended, forming a double mechanical lock. The self-locking characteristic of the drive screw 202 provides the first layer of protection, and the engagement of the fixed tooth 205 and the limit tooth 203 forms the second layer of protection. The cooperation between the guide rail 206 and the auxiliary groove 401 reduces the lifting resistance.
[0024] In this embodiment, the lifting plate 4 is used to place the speed reducer. Two sets of limiting members are rotatably connected to the top of the lifting plate 4. Each set of limiting members includes an inner groove 402 formed in the top of the lifting plate 4. A support portion 403 is provided at the top of the inner groove 402. Limiting portions 407 are provided on both sides of the bottom of the support portion 403. A sliding block 404 is slidably connected inside the support portion 403. Conical springs 4041 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the sliding block 404. The bottom end of the conical spring 4041 is connected to the bottom of the inner groove 402. The sliding block 404 is fixedly connected. Both sides of the bottom of the sliding block 404 are provided with connecting cavities. The connecting cavities are rotatably connected with connecting parts 406. The other end of the connecting part 406 is provided with a first connecting rod 405. The connection between the first connecting rod 405 and the connecting part 406 is rotatably connected to the inside of the inner groove 402. Each limiting part 407 is connected to the outward end of the first connecting rod 405. The opposing surfaces of the two opposing limiting parts 407 are provided with arc-shaped grooves 408. The inside of the limiting part 407 is provided with a cavity 409.
[0025] The speed reducer is placed on the support part 403 of the lifting plate 4. Its weight presses down on the sliding block 404, compressing the conical spring 4041. When the sliding block 404 moves down, it pushes the first connecting rod 405 outward through the connecting part 406, causing the limiting parts 407 on both sides to rotate inward and clamp the speed reducer. The arc-shaped groove 408 fits the speed reducer housing, increasing the contact area. The cavity 409 provides elastic buffering to avoid damage to the equipment from rigid clamping. If there is a deviation in the size or placement of the speed reducer, the elastic deformation of the conical spring 4041 allows the sliding block 404 to finely adjust its horizontal position, ensuring that the limiting part 407 applies force evenly. After the speed reducer is removed, the conical spring 4041 rebounds, pushing the sliding block 404 up. The first connecting rod 405 drives the limiting part 407 to automatically return to the unfolded state.
[0026] The mechanical linkage enables "placement and locking," eliminating the need for manual operation or auxiliary tools and significantly improving maintenance efficiency. The arc-shaped groove 408 adapts to reducers of different diameters, enhancing stability. The cavity 409 provides flexible clamping, preventing scratches or overpressure damage to the equipment surface. The elastic deformation of the conical spring 4041 allows the limiting mechanism to adapt to reducers of different weights and sizes, making it highly versatile. After unloading, the mechanism automatically returns to its initial state, facilitating continuous operation and reducing manual intervention. The purely mechanical transmission has no complex circuitry, resulting in a low failure rate and suitability for harsh maintenance environments such as oil stains and vibrations.
[0027] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: First, the reducer is placed on the support part 403 of the lifting plate 4. Its weight presses down on the sliding block 404, compressing the conical spring 4041. When the sliding block 404 moves down, it pushes the first connecting rod 405 outward through the connecting part 406, causing the limiting parts 407 on both sides to rotate inward and clamp the reducer. The arc-shaped groove 408 fits the reducer housing, increasing the contact area. The cavity 409 provides elastic buffering to avoid damage to the equipment from rigid clamping. If there is a deviation in the size or placement of the reducer, the elastic deformation of the conical spring 4041 allows the sliding block 404 to finely adjust its horizontal position, ensuring that the limiting part 407 applies force evenly. After the reducer is removed, the conical spring 4041 rebounds, pushing the sliding block 404 upward, and the first connecting rod 405... Rod 405 drives the limiting part 407 to automatically reset to the extended state, starts motor 3, drives screw 202 to rotate, drives lifting block 201 to move up and down along support frame 2 through thread transmission, and lifting block 201 drives lifting plate 4 to move synchronously. Auxiliary groove 401 cooperates with guide rail 206 to ensure smooth lifting process without deviation. When lifting plate 4 reaches the target height, electric telescopic rod 204 extends, so that fixed tooth 205 and limiting tooth 203 engage and lock position. During maintenance work, electric telescopic rod 204 remains extended, forming double mechanical locking. The self-locking characteristic of drive screw 202 provides the first layer of protection, the engagement of fixed tooth 205 and limiting tooth 203 forms the second layer of protection, and the cooperation of guide rail 206 and auxiliary groove 401 reduces lifting resistance.
