Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of speed reducer technology, and in particular to a speed reducer structure for a heavy-duty truck electric drive system. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most new energy heavy trucks on the domestic market typically adopt a "low-speed motor + gearbox" structure, which generally suffers from technical problems such as large size, heavy weight, and high cost.

[0003] Specifically, the sealing of reducers and transmissions in some existing products mostly uses O-rings at the input shaft of the transmission and the output shaft of the reducer. However, since the input shaft of the transmission and the output shaft of the reducer are connected by splines to transmit torque, this structure is prone to scratching and damaging the O-rings during disassembly and assembly, and assembly is difficult. At the same time, the reducer cannot be sealed independently, which affects the production and testing of the reducer.

[0004] In summary, how to provide a reducer structure for a heavy-duty truck electric drive system that is lightweight, low-cost, and highly efficient has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content
