Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bidirectional transmission mechanisms for robots, and more specifically, to a bidirectional transmission mechanism for a robot. Background Technology
[0002] A robot is an intelligent machine capable of semi-autonomous or fully autonomous operation. It can perform tasks such as work or movement through programming and automatic control. Robots are divided into two main categories: industrial robots and special-purpose robots. Industrial robots are multi-jointed manipulators or multi-degree-of-freedom robots designed for industrial applications, while special-purpose robots are robots that serve special tasks, such as explosion-proof robots, mine-clearing robots, underground exploration robots, etc. In robots, the robotic arm is an important transmission component that bears various loads. However, the robotic arm has poor stability when making lifting and adjustment adjustments. It is prone to vibration during lifting and adjustment, which can cause products to fall off and cause product damage.
[0003] Among its existing technical patents, such as the one authorized by publication number CN219504819U, this utility model discloses a robot mechanical transmission structure, including a shell, a motor mounted on the top of the shell, and a screw fixedly connected to one end of the motor's output shaft. A mounting base is threaded onto the outer wall of the screw, and stabilizing grooves are evenly spaced on the top of the mounting base. Ball bearings are evenly spaced on the inner wall of the stabilizing grooves. This robot mechanical transmission structure, through the setting of the stabilizing rod, increases the stability of the robotic arm during lifting and lowering. Simultaneously, the multiple ball bearings reduce the friction between the robotic arm and the stabilizing rod during lifting and lowering, preventing the stabilizing rod from becoming uneven due to excessive friction, thus affecting the stability of the robotic arm during lifting and lowering, ensuring the service life of the stabilizing rod, and consequently ensuring the stability of the robot mechanical transmission structure.
[0004] In the aforementioned patent, a stabilizer bar structure is used. However, the stabilizer bar is inconvenient to install with the mounting base and the housing. When lubricating, a lubrication mechanism is used to lubricate the lifting and sliding. The separate lubrication mechanism increases the size of the robot drive components and increases the cost.

This simple lubrication structure reduces volume and lowers equipment cost.
[0027] The upper inner surface of the mounting base 4 is connected to a convex annular extrusion sleeve 9 by a thread. The lower surface of the convex annular extrusion sleeve 9 presses against the upper surface of the linear bearing 8.

[0029] A notch 11 is provided on the outer end surface of the positioning ring groove 90 of the convex annular extrusion sleeve 9. When in use, a screwdriver can be inserted along the notch 11 to pry open the rubber sealing ring 10 and push it up. Lubricating oil can be squeezed in, making maintenance convenient.
