Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of speed reducer installation technology, and more specifically, it relates to a three-ring speed reducer installation structure for continuous casting machines. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, the installation structure of a three-ring reducer for continuous casting machines often faces the problem of inconvenient ground installation due to the large weight of the reducer. This issue poses significant challenges to equipment commissioning, maintenance, and replacement during actual production and installation, affecting the efficiency and stability of the entire continuous casting machine system.

[0003] Firstly, as a high-precision, high-efficiency production equipment, the three-ring reducer plays a crucial role in continuous casting machines. The reducer lowers the motor's speed through deceleration and transmits this speed to various working parts via the transmission system, ensuring stable equipment operation. However, the three-ring reducer itself is quite heavy, and its size and weight often exceed the load-bearing capacity of conventional equipment. Installing the reducer requires large lifting equipment and precise alignment during the installation process, which not only increases labor intensity but also consumes a significant amount of time and manpower.

[0004] Secondly, due to the large weight of the speed reducer, traditional ground-mounting methods are often insufficient to meet the various requirements of practical applications. During installation, operators need to use numerous auxiliary support tools or specialized equipment to fix the speed reducer in the designated position. This fixing method is not only cumbersome during operation, but also prone to unstable operation due to insecure installation, which can even affect the working efficiency and lifespan of the speed reducer.

The drive motor 9 starts, and the active gear 13 drives the toothed ring 11 and the external rotating frame 12 to rotate. The threaded plate 23 pushes the longitudinal moving ring 14 to move. The longitudinal moving ring 14 moves down, and the push-pull groove 16 pulls the snap-fit ​​bracket 15 away from the snap-fit ​​groove 17 of the lower pressure rod 6, releasing the lower pressure rod 6 to slide freely.
