Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts application technology, and in particular to a detachable modular axle protective shell. Background Technology
[0002] The axle is a crucial component of a vehicle, its function being to bear the vehicle's load and maintain normal driving on the road. During vehicle operation, the axle is susceptible to impacts from external objects, wear and tear, and corrosion from dust, mud, and water, thus affecting its service life and safety.
[0003] Currently, protective shells are typically installed on axles to protect them. Most existing axle protective shells are integral structures, which are very inconvenient to install and disassemble. Furthermore, the internal drive unit requires layer-by-layer installation and cannot be assembled separately, reducing installation efficiency. When the protective shell is partially damaged, the entire shell needs to be replaced, increasing the cost of use. Therefore, this utility model proposes a detachable modular axle protective shell. Utility Model Content

[0006] The end caps A and B are equipped with drive units, and the two drive units are connected by a drive shaft to drive the wheels on both sides.
[0007] The present invention is further configured such that: a plurality of arc-shaped connecting convex strips are uniformly arranged on the outer wall of the main shell in the circumferential direction, and the two ends of the arc-shaped convex strips are respectively bolted to the end cap A and the connecting part.
[0008] The above technical solution facilitates the reinforcement of the main shell with multiple protrusions, improving stability during use. At the same time, bolt connections are made at the reinforced protrusions to enhance the connection between the main shell and the end cap A and the connecting part.

[0010] Through the above technical solution, the limiting protrusion A is used to position and fix part of the internal drive unit, and the fixing step A is used to fix it with bolts, so that it is firmly installed inside the end cover A, and the output shaft of the drive unit can be stably transmitted through the bearing in the bearing seat A.
[0011] The present invention is further configured such that: a reinforcing ring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting part, and multiple reinforcing blocks are uniformly fixedly connected to the outer wall of the reinforcing ring at the connection point of the connecting part in the circumferential direction, and the outer wall of the reinforcing ring is embedded in the inner wall of the end cap B.
[0012] The above technical solution facilitates the use of reinforcing rings to stabilize parts of the internal drive unit structure, improving the stability of the drive unit during use, and the use of multiple reinforcing blocks can increase the strength of the reinforcing rings.
[0013] The present invention is further configured such that: the reinforcing ring is arranged in a stepped shape, and multiple reinforcing plates are uniformly fixedly connected to the circumference of the stepped connection; multiple support plates are uniformly fixedly connected to the circumference of the outer wall of the reinforcing ring, and the multiple support plates and multiple reinforcing blocks are located on both sides of the reinforcing ring and are distributed alternately.
[0014] The above technical solution uses multiple reinforcing plates and support plates to improve the strength of the reinforcing ring, thereby providing robust protection for the connected drive unit.
[0015] The present invention is further configured such that: a bearing seat B is provided at the end face of the end cover B, a limiting protrusion B is provided inside the end cover B at the bearing seat B, and a fixing step B is provided inside the end cover B near the middle position.
[0016] The above technical solution facilitates the engagement and installation of the internal drive unit on the limiting protrusion B, and the bolt connection and fixation at the fixed step B, so that the internal output shaft can be stably transmitted through the bearing installed in the bearing seat B.
[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0018] This utility model proposes a detachable modular axle protective shell. By using multiple modular designs to splice the axle protective shell, the internal drive unit can be separately installed on multiple modules.

Detailed Implementation
[0024] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more definite definition of the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0025] like Figures 1-3As shown, a detachable modular axle protective shell includes a main shell 1. Multiple arc-shaped connecting ridges are evenly arranged on the outer wall of the main shell 1 along its circumference. The two ends of these arc-shaped ridges are bolted to an end cap A2 and a connecting part 3, respectively. This arrangement of multiple ridges strengthens the main shell 1, improving its stability during use. The bolted connections at the reinforced ridges enhance the connection strength between the main shell 1 and the end cap A2 and the connecting part 3. An end cap A2 is bolted to one end of the main shell 1. A bearing seat A21 is provided on the end face of the end cap A2. The end cap A2 is located inside the bearing seat A2. A limiting protrusion A22 is provided at the position of the seat A21. A fixing step A23 is provided on the inner wall of the end cover A2 near the limiting protrusion A22. An installation cavity 24 is provided in the middle of the end cover A2. Multiple sealing grooves 25 are provided inside the end cover A2 near one end of the main shell 1. The limiting protrusion A22 is used to partially position and fix the internal drive unit 5, and the fixing step A23 is used to bolt it to make it firmly installed inside the end cover A2. The output shaft of the drive unit 5 can then be stably transmitted through the bearing provided in the bearing seat A21.
[0026] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the other end of the main shell 1 is bolted to the end cap B4 via the connecting part 3, so as to install the internal drive unit 5 separately and realize modular splicing. The inner wall of the connecting part 3 is fixedly connected to the reinforcing ring 31. Multiple reinforcing blocks 33 are evenly fixedly connected in the circumferential direction at the connection between the outer wall of the reinforcing ring 31 and the connecting part 3. The outer wall of the reinforcing ring 31 is embedded in the inner wall of the end cap B4, which makes it easy to use the reinforcing ring 31 to stabilize part of the internal drive unit 5, improve the stability of the drive unit 5 in use, and the use of multiple reinforcing blocks 33 can improve the strength of the reinforcing ring 31.
[0027] like Figures 2-4As shown, drive units 5 are installed inside end caps A2 and B4, and the two drive units 5 are connected by a drive shaft to drive the wheels on both sides. The reinforcing ring 31 is arranged in a stepped shape, and multiple reinforcing plates 32 are uniformly fixedly connected to the circumference of the stepped joints. Multiple support plates 34 are uniformly fixedly connected to the circumference of the outer wall of the reinforcing ring 31, and the multiple support plates 34 and multiple reinforcing blocks 33 are located on both sides of the reinforcing ring 31 and are distributed alternately. The use of multiple reinforcing plates 32 and support plates 34 can improve the reinforcement. The strength of the reinforcing ring 31 ensures its secure protection of the connected drive unit 5. A bearing seat B41 is provided on the end face of the end cover B4. A limiting protrusion B42 is provided inside the end cover B4 at the bearing seat B41. A fixing step B43 is provided inside the end cover B4 near the middle, which facilitates the engagement of the internal drive unit 5 with the limiting protrusion B42. The fixing step B43 is bolted to secure the drive unit 5. Finally, the internal output shaft can be stably transmitted through the bearing provided in the bearing seat B41.
[0028] In use, the two drive units 5 are installed inside the end caps A2 and B4 respectively. The connecting part 3 is then installed on the end cap B4 to form a new modular unit, which is bolted to the main shell 1. The modular end cap A2 is then installed on the other end of the main shell 1, and the two drive units 5 are connected by a drive shaft to achieve modular installation of the entire axle.
