Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical equipment, specifically to a planetary brake roller structure. Background Technology
[0002] A brake roller structure is a device that achieves braking through rolling friction. It typically consists of a roller, a brake disc, a clamping mechanism, and transmission components. Its core principle is to utilize the contact pressure between the roller and the brake disc to generate friction. The rotation or clamping action of the roller converts kinetic energy into heat energy, thereby achieving the braking effect. This structure features smooth braking, rapid response, and good heat dissipation, and is widely used in equipment such as cranes, elevators, and mining machinery. It effectively controls the speed or stops moving parts, ensuring the safety and reliability of equipment operation.
[0003] CN114955780A discloses a roller braking mechanism in which a roller is rotatably mounted on a wheel seat. The roller braking mechanism includes a brake ring, a friction element, and a drive mechanism. The brake ring is coaxially and fixedly connected to the roller and is located between the roller and the wheel seat. The friction element is mounted on the wheel seat and located inside the brake ring. The drive mechanism is used to drive the friction element to move radially along the brake ring so as to make frictional contact with the brake ring and realize roller braking. However, the braking structure of this technology has the problems of large braking device size and large braking torque, which makes it unsuitable for applications with high requirements for lightweighting and rapid braking. Therefore, this technology still has some room for improvement. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a planetary brake roller structure to address the shortcomings of the prior art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a planetary brake roller structure, comprising a body, wherein the body is provided with a braking structure and a transmission structure, characterized in that: the body comprises a stationary body and a motor body, the stationary body and the motor body are rotatably connected, the transmission structure includes a transmission shaft passing through the stationary body, a sun gear is provided on one side of the transmission shaft, the sun gear is placed in the motor body, a plurality of planet gears are provided on the outer periphery of the sun gear, the sun gear meshes with the planet gears, and the inner wall of the motor body is provided with annular retaining teeth for one side of the planet gears to mesh.

The labyrinth clearance is located on one side of the tapered roller bearing, effectively preventing dust, moisture, and other impurities from entering the machine body. The floating oil seal further seals the area between the labyrinth clearance and the tapered roller bearing, preventing lubricating oil leakage and blocking external contaminants from entering.

One side of the inner friction plate abuts against the drive shaft, and one side of the outer friction plate abuts against the spline body. A retaining spring is provided between the second pressure plate and the piston to cause the piston to abut against the outer friction plate in the normal state, and the roller is in a braking state. The hydraulic structure pushes the piston to move axially toward the second pressure plate through hydraulic pressure. After the outer friction plate and the inner friction plate lose the pressing effect of the piston, they will be released, the drive shaft will be released from the braking state, and the roller can rotate normally.
