Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of thin-walled spacers, specifically a thin-walled spacer. Background Technology
[0002] Thin-walled spacers are key basic components in mechanical transmission systems, precision instruments, and power equipment. Their core functions are to achieve isolation and positioning between components, gap adjustment, and load transfer. These components are typically characterized by thin walls, compact structure, and high requirements for coaxiality and dimensional accuracy.
[0003] Traditional thin-walled spacers rely on external forced lubrication or pre-applied oil for lubrication. Their smooth inner walls lack oil storage / guiding structures, making them prone to oil loss due to centrifugal force. This necessitates frequent shutdowns for oil replenishment. The trade-off between heat dissipation and strength means that thin-walled structures often sacrifice heat dissipation to ensure strength. Although there are heat dissipation holes, their poor structure lacks support and dust protection, leading to decreased strength and the entry of external contaminants. In terms of assembly and positioning, clamping and limiting are unreliable. To address these issues, we propose a new type of thin-walled spacer. Utility Model Content

[0037] Structural Description:
[0038] Spacer body 1: It is a thin-walled hollow cylinder with open ends and a compact structure. It provides an installation reference for various functional structures such as dustproof net 2 and arc honeycomb panel 3, and realizes the isolation and positioning, gap adjustment and load transfer between components.
[0039] Dustproof mesh 2: It is a sheet-like mesh, the size of which is adapted to the heat dissipation hole 8. It is snapped onto the outside of the heat dissipation hole 8 to intercept dust and impurities and prevent them from entering the interior of the sleeve body 1 and contaminating the lubricating oil.
[0040] Arc-shaped honeycomb panel 3: It is an arc-shaped sheet with honeycomb holes inside. It is snapped into the heat dissipation hole 8. The arc-shaped surface fits the wall of the heat dissipation hole 8 to provide support. The honeycomb holes form a ventilation channel to help the spacer body 1 dissipate heat.
[0041] Sponge strip 4: It is a spiral strip with an oil hole 12 at one end, which is snapped into the spiral groove 9. The highly oil-absorbent material is soaked in and stores lubricating oil. The structure of the spiral groove 9 enables the oil to spread evenly on the inner wall of the spacer body 1.
[0042] Clamping protrusion 5: It is block-shaped and fixed to the outer wall of the spacer body 1 near the opening end. Threaded holes 7 are opened on the surface to provide a stable clamping point for the assembly fixture, and at the same time, it serves as the mounting base for auxiliary limiting structures such as limiting block 6 and screw 11.
[0043] Limiting block 6: It is a block shape that is adapted to the slide groove 10. It can slide in the slide groove 10. When it slides out, it fits the internal components of the spacer body 1 to achieve the limit. When it retracts, it does not interfere with the operation of the components.
[0044] Threaded hole 7: A circular through hole with internal threads, opened on the surface of the clamping protrusion 5, which is threaded to the screw 11 to provide a base for the installation and adjustment of the screw 11;
[0045] Heat dissipation hole 8: It is a circular through hole, evenly distributed on the cylindrical wall of the spacer body 1 and staggered from the spiral groove 9. It serves as a heat dissipation channel for the spacer body 1 and also accommodates the arc honeycomb plate 3 and the dustproof mesh 2.
[0046] Spiral groove 9: A spiral groove is formed on the inner wall of the spacer body 1. The size matches the sponge strip 4. It is used to snap and fix the sponge strip 4 and guide the oil in the sponge strip 4 to evenly cover the inner wall of the spacer body 1.
[0047] Slide groove 10: It is a long strip-shaped groove, which is opened on the inner wall of the spacer body 1 and corresponds to the clamping protrusion 5. It provides a sliding track for the limiting block 6 and ensures that the moving direction of the limiting block 6 is stable.
[0048] Screw 11: It is a cylindrical rod with external threads, with a fixed limiting protrusion 13 at one end, which passes through the threaded hole 7 and the guide hole 15. It pushes the limiting block 6 to slide through the threaded transmission with the threaded hole 7.
[0049] Oil hole 12: It is a circular through hole that passes through one end of the sponge strip 4 and serves as a channel for injecting lubricating oil, making it convenient to replenish oil into the sponge strip 4;
[0050] Limiting protrusion 13: It is block-shaped and fixed to the end of the screw 11. It is rotatably engaged with the stepped groove 14, which transmits the thrust of the screw 11 and allows the screw 11 to rotate without driving the limiting block 6.
[0051] Stepped groove 14: A stepped groove is formed on the side of the limiting block 6 facing the guide hole 15, and is adapted to the limiting protrusion 13 to provide rotation space and axial positioning for the limiting protrusion 13;
[0052] Guide hole 15: It is a circular through hole that passes through the slide groove 10 and the threaded hole 7, providing guidance for the axial movement of the screw 11 and preventing the screw 11 from deviating.
[0053] Working principle: Before assembly, lubricating oil is injected through the oil hole 12 at one end of the sponge strip 4. The highly absorbent sponge strip 4 quickly soaks in and stores the oil. The spiral structure precisely engages with the spiral groove 9 on the inner wall of the spacer body 1. When the parts that the spacer is fitted with rotate, the sponge strip 4 vibrates slightly due to friction with the parts. Under the influence of gravity and capillary action, the oil spreads evenly along the spiral groove 9. At the same time, the spiral structure ensures that the oil covers the entire inner wall of the spacer. The heat dissipation holes 8 on the outer surface of the spacer body 1 are staggered from the spiral groove 9 on the inner wall. During operation, the heat generated by the friction of the parts is conducted to the heat dissipation holes 8 through the spacer body. The honeycomb holes of the arc-shaped honeycomb plate 3 face the inside of the spacer, forming a dense ventilation channel. The arc structure and the heat dissipation holes... The inner wall of the 8-section provides rigid support for the hole. The dustproof net 2 near the outside of the spacer intercepts dust and impurities in the air, preventing them from entering the interior through the heat dissipation holes and contaminating the lubricating oil. During assembly, the clamping protrusion 5 on the outer wall of the spacer body 1 provides a stable clamping point for the fixture. When it is necessary to limit the internal components, use a screwdriver to rotate and clamp the screw 11 on the protrusion 5. The screw moves axially along the guide hole 15 through the threaded engagement with the threaded hole 7. The limiting protrusion 13 at its end rotates and engages with the stepped groove 14 of the limiting block 6, pushing the limiting block 6 to slide out along the slide groove 10. After the limiting block 6 extends, it fits against the end face of the internal component. If it is necessary to cancel the limit, rotate the screw 11 in the opposite direction to drive the limiting block 6 back into the slide groove 10.
