Abstract

This utility model relates to a deceleration clutch for an agitator washing machine and the washing machine itself, belonging to the field of deceleration clutch technology. It overcomes the deficiency of insufficient support strength of the impeller shaft in high-impact washing machines. The device includes an impeller shaft and a spin-drying shaft. The impeller shaft is supported upper and lower within the spin-drying shaft by movable support member one and movable support member two. Movable support member one is a needle roller bearing and / or a ball bearing, and movable support member two is a needle roller bearing and a thrust bearing or a ball bearing. This design can adapt to the support force requirements of high-impact washing machines, improving the service life of the agitator. The stepped mounting hole not only provides axial limitation but also appropriately reduces the radial dimension of the shaft, lowering costs. A shaft retaining ring improves the installation stability of the impeller shaft. Adjusting shims eliminate axial dimensional errors, reducing production costs.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of deceleration clutch technology, and specifically relates to a deceleration clutch for an agitator washing machine and the agitator washing machine thereof. Background Technology

[0002] Current top-loading washing machines use a flat-plate pulsator. The pulsator is low, resulting in less stress on the pulsator shaft support. Typically, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the impeller shaft is supported inside the spin-drying shaft by an oil-impregnated bearing. This usually meets the requirements during the lifespan of the washing machine. However, for agitator washing machines, the agitator impeller is taller, which increases the stress on the impeller shaft. The original support method can no longer play the corresponding role, and it is necessary to strengthen the support of the impeller shaft. How to strengthen the support is a technical problem that we urgently need to solve. Utility Model Content

[0003] The primary objective of this invention is to provide a deceleration clutch for an agitator washing machine to solve the aforementioned technical problems in the prior art.

[0006] Furthermore, the dehydration shaft is provided with stepped mounting holes corresponding to the movable support member one and the movable support member two.

[0007] Furthermore, the stepped mounting hole and the outer rings of the first and second movable support members are installed together with the outer circle of the impeller shaft through an interference fit or a clearance fit.

[0008] More specifically, the first movable support member is press-fitted onto the upper stepped mounting hole in a downward direction, and the second movable support member is press-fitted onto the lower stepped mounting hole in a downward direction.

[0009] Furthermore, the inner rings or inner contact surfaces of the first and second movable support members are installed together with the outer circle of the impeller shaft through interference fit, clearance fit, or transition fit.

[0010] Furthermore, the impeller shaft also includes an impeller shaft step, which is supported on the upper end surface of the movable support member.

[0011] More specifically, a gasket is provided between the impeller shaft step and the movable support member.

[0012] Furthermore, it also includes a shaft retaining ring, which is used to movably engage the impeller shaft with the lower end face of the second movable support member at the lower part of the dehydration shaft.

[0013] More specifically, an adjusting shim may be provided between the shaft retaining ring and the movable support member two.

[0014] An agitator washing machine, wherein the agitator washing machine is equipped with the aforementioned agitator washing machine reduction clutch.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] 1. The movable support component one of this utility model is a needle roller bearing and / or a ball bearing, and the movable support component two is a needle roller bearing and a thrust bearing or a ball bearing, which can meet the support force requirements of high impeller and improve the service life of the mixer.

[0017] 2. The dehydration shaft of this utility model is provided with a stepped mounting hole, which not only solves the problem of axial limiting, but also appropriately reduces the radial dimension of the dehydration shaft and reduces costs;

[0018] 3. This utility model product uses a shaft retaining ring for axial locking and limiting, which can effectively ensure that the impeller shaft is not pulled out by high-strength water flow and improve the installation stability of the impeller shaft;

[0019] 4. This utility model product is equipped with an adjusting shim, which can effectively adjust the axial clearance, appropriately reduce the axial dimension error of the impeller shaft and the dehydration shaft, and reduce production costs. Attached Figure Description
