Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of speed reducers, and in particular relates to a sound-absorbing housing for a speed reducer. Background Technology
[0002] The reducer's housing serves as its base and frame, primarily supporting and securing all shaft components to ensure precise relative positions of gears and bearings, thus guaranteeing transmission accuracy. Simultaneously, the housing forms a sealed space, effectively protecting internal precision transmission components from dust, moisture, and foreign matter. It also acts as an "oil pool" to store lubricating oil, ensuring continuous lubrication and preventing leakage through seals. Furthermore, the heat generated during operation is dissipated into the air through the housing's large surface area, further enhanced by cooling fins. However, the reducer housing still has the following drawbacks in practical use:
[0003] When the reducer is working, the internal structure of the reducer vibrates as the motor drives the internal structure. This vibration of the internal structure causes the external equipment to vibrate, which generates noise and results in a relatively high overall noise level in the equipment.
[0004] Secondly, during operation, the internal reduction gears of the reducer generate meshing noise, which is transmitted into the space. This results in higher noise levels during operation, affecting the overall noise level of the equipment. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a sound-absorbing housing for a speed reducer. By setting a fixed chamber, a fixed column, a closed plate, and a frame, it solves the problem that the overall equipment vibration noise is large during the vibration of the speed reducer housing, and that the noise level is large due to the lack of a sound-absorbing structure in the speed reducer housing.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] This utility model relates to a sound-absorbing housing for a speed reducer, comprising a fixed chamber, a fixed column, a sealing plate, and a frame. Sound-absorbing cotton is fixed to the lower outer side of the fixed chamber, and a frame is fixed to the outer side of the sound-absorbing cotton. A fixed plate is fixed to the bottom of the fixed chamber, and a vibration-absorbing block is fixed to the bottom of the fixed plate. A sealing plate is provided on the upper front side of the fixed chamber. A fixed column is fixed through the center of the top of the fixed chamber. Reinforcing frames are fixed to the upper sides of both sides of the fixed chamber. The fixed chamber serves as the main structure, housing the gear set. Sound-absorbing cotton is provided on its lower outer side to absorb operating noise, and the outside is sealed and fixed by the frame. The bottom is connected to the vibration-absorbing block through the fixed plate to dissipate vibration energy. A detachable sealing plate is provided on the upper front side to seal the installation port. The fixed column in the center of the top is used to add gear oil, and the reinforcing frames on the upper sides are used to enhance the overall structural strength.
[0008] Furthermore, an installation port is fixedly provided through the upper front side of the fixed compartment, and a movable sleeve is fixedly provided on the upper rear side wall of the fixed compartment. The installation port is located on the upper front side of the fixed compartment and is used for the installation and maintenance of the gear set. The movable sleeve on the rear side wall is used to support the driven gear shaft.
[0009] Furthermore, a movable sleeve two is fixed on one side wall of the fixed chamber, and a shaft seal one is fixed through the lower part of the fixed chamber away from the movable sleeve two. The central axes of the movable sleeve two and the shaft seal one are set on the same straight line. The movable sleeve two is fixed to one side wall of the chamber and together with the shaft seal one on the other side lower part support the drive gear shaft. The axes of the two coincide to ensure transmission alignment.
[0010] Furthermore, the fixing column is threadedly connected to a knob bolt along the central axis. The head of the knob bolt is located at the top of the fixing column. The knob bolt is threadedly connected inside the fixing column. After being unscrewed, gear oil can be added into the compartment.
[0011] Furthermore, the sealing plate is located on the side of the installation port away from the fixed chamber. A shaft seal two is fixedly fixed through the center of the sealing plate. Mounting bolts are inserted through the four corners of the sealing plate. The mounting bolts pass through the sealing plate and are screwed into the installation port. The sealing plate is fixed to the installation port by the mounting bolts. The shaft seal two in the center is used to seal the driven gear output shaft and is coaxial with the movable sleeve one.
[0012] Furthermore, the vibration-absorbing block and the fixing plate are both movably connected inside the sound-absorbing cotton. The bottom of the vibration-absorbing block, the sound-absorbing cotton, and the sleeve frame are all fixed with a mounting plate. The vibration-absorbing block and the fixing plate are both embedded inside the sound-absorbing cotton. All three, together with the sleeve frame, are fixed to the mounting plate at the bottom and connected to external equipment by bolts.
[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] This invention solves the problem of excessive vibration and noise in the reducer housing during vibration by setting up a fixed chamber, a fixed column, a sealing plate, and a sleeve frame. The driving gear is placed in the fixed chamber, and each connecting shaft is connected to the shaft seal through the movable sleeve and the shaft seal. The input shaft is interference-fitted with the shaft seal. Then, the driven gear connecting shaft is movably connected to the movable sleeve. By installing the sealing plate, the output shaft of the driven gear is interference-fitted with the shaft seal. After inserting the mounting bolts into the sealing plate and screwing them into the mounting opening, the installation is completed. During operation, the vibration in the fixed chamber is transmitted to the fixed plate and then to the vibration-absorbing block. The vibration-absorbing block converts the vibration into heat, reducing noise and making the reducer housing vibrate less and the overall equipment noise less during vibration.
[0015] This invention solves the problem of high noise levels caused by the lack of sound-absorbing structure in the reducer housing by setting up a fixed chamber and a sleeve frame. After noise is generated in the fixed chamber, it is transmitted to the surface of the fixed chamber and then to the sound-absorbing cotton in the sleeve frame. After absorbing part of the noise in the fixed chamber, the noise transmitted from the fixed chamber is reduced. The reducer housing contains a sound-absorbing structure, resulting in a lower noise level. Attached Figure Description
