Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of electrical transmission devices, and specifically relates to a gearbox with high heat dissipation performance. Background Technology

[0002] Ironmaking is a crucial step in the entire production process of the iron and steel metallurgy industry, but the environment is extremely harsh. Ironmaking generates a large amount of heat and high concentrations of dust, posing significant challenges to production equipment. Existing electrical drive systems exhibit serious defects when operating in such an environment. Among these, the gearbox, as a key transmission component of the electrical drive system, is most severely affected. Due to the continuous high temperature, heat accumulates inside the gearbox and is difficult to dissipate quickly and effectively, causing the gearbox temperature to easily exceed the normal operating threshold.

[0003] An overheated working environment can gradually reduce the mechanical properties of the internal components of the gearbox, such as the hardness and toughness of the gears, leading to gear deformation and affecting the meshing accuracy and transmission efficiency between gears. Long-term exposure to high temperatures can also damage the gearbox structure, and in severe cases, even paralyze the entire electrical drive system. This will not only frequently interrupt ironmaking production and increase equipment maintenance costs, but also reduce production efficiency, affecting the company's economic benefits and the smooth implementation of production plans.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0019] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the gearbox with high heat dissipation performance provided by this utility model has an output shaft 13 rotatably mounted on one side of the gearbox housing 1 via a bearing. It includes: a gearbox housing 1, an oil injection assembly, an oil return assembly, and an oil pump 7. The oil injection assembly is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the gearbox housing 1, and the oil return assembly is fixedly mounted on the lower end of the gearbox housing 1. The oil inlet end of the oil injection assembly is connected to the oil outlet end of the oil return assembly through the oil pump 7.

[0020] Preferably, the fuel injection assembly includes: a first fuel distributor 10 and several sets of matching fuel injection pipes 2 and first cooling oil pipes 3. The inlet end of the first fuel distributor 10 is fixedly connected to the outlet end of the fuel pump 7. The inlet ends of the first cooling oil pipes 3 are all fixedly connected to the outlet ends of the first fuel distributor 10. The first cooling oil pipes 3 are arranged around the outside of the gearbox housing 1. The first cooling oil pipes 3 are made of bent copper pipes. The fuel injection pipes 2 extend vertically into the inside of the gearbox housing 1 and are fixedly connected to the upper end of the gearbox housing 1. The inlet end of the fuel injection pipes 2 is fixedly connected to the outlet end of the first cooling oil pipes 3. An atomizing nozzle 16 is fixedly installed at the outlet end of the fuel injection pipes 2.

[0021] Preferably, the oil return assembly includes: a second oil circuit distributor 11 and several sets of matching drain pipes 9 and second cooling oil pipes 8. The oil outlet of the second oil circuit distributor 11 is fixedly connected to the oil inlet of the oil pump 7. The oil outlets of the second cooling oil pipes 8 are all fixedly connected to the oil inlet of the second oil circuit distributor 11. The second cooling oil pipes 8 are arranged around the outside of the gearbox housing 1. The second cooling oil pipes 8 are made of bent copper pipes. The drain pipes 9 are fixedly connected to the lower end of the gearbox housing 1 and communicate with the inside of the gearbox housing 1. The oil outlet of the drain pipe 9 is fixedly connected to the oil inlet of the second cooling oil pipe 8. The lower end of the drain pipe 9 is higher than the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the gearbox housing 1.

[0022] The lubricating oil is atomized and sprayed onto the transmission gears through the oil spray pipe 2 for cooling and lubrication. This effectively reduces the internal temperature of the gearbox, minimizes component deformation and wear caused by high temperatures, greatly improves the reliability and stability of the gearbox in the high-temperature environment of ironmaking, extends the service life of the gearbox, ensures the continuous and stable operation of the electrical drive device, and reduces the risk of production interruption due to gearbox failure. This improves the continuity and efficiency of the iron and steel metallurgical production process. The oil drain pipe 9 enables the circulation of lubricating oil. The first cooling oil pipe 3 and the second cooling oil pipe 8 form an oil circulation path for the lubricating oil around the gearbox shell 1, which simultaneously cools the lubricating oil during circulation, thus achieving continuous cooling of the gearbox.

[0023] Preferably, a filter cover 12 is fixedly installed at the oil inlet end of the oil drain pipe 9.

[0024] By setting the lower end of the oil drain pipe 9 to be higher than the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the gearbox housing 1, this design can effectively prevent sediment from entering the oil inlet of the oil drain pipe 9. At the same time, a filter cover 12 is fixedly installed at the oil inlet of the oil drain pipe 9 to further ensure the purity of the discharged lubricating oil and prevent impurities from clogging the oil drain pipe 9.

[0025] Preferably, the middle section of the first cooling oil pipe 3 is provided with an arc-shaped bend 15, the inner ring of which is coaxial with the output shaft 13 and surrounds the outer side of the output shaft 13.

[0026] Preferably, the output shaft 13 is fixedly connected to an extension shaft 14 via a coupling, and a fan blade 6 is fixedly installed on the extension shaft 14.

[0027] Preferably, a protective cover 4 is fixedly connected to the gearbox housing 1 via a connecting post 5. The protective cover 4 is located on the outside of the fan blade 6, and a circular hole is provided at the center of the protective cover 4, through which the extension shaft 14 passes.

[0028] By fixing the fan blade 6 and protective cover 4 to the extended shaft 14, the fan blade 6 can promote the flow of surrounding air to assist in heat dissipation when the gearbox output shaft 13 rotates. The protective cover 4 can prevent dust and other impurities from affecting the rotation and heat dissipation function of the fan blade 6. At the same time, the inner ring of the arc-shaped bend 15 of the first cooling oil pipe 3 is coaxially set with the outer ring of the gearbox output shaft 13, which can make reasonable use of space layout and promote the heat dissipation of lubricating oil by means of the rotation of the fan blade 6. It effectively reduces the corrosion of the gearbox output shaft 13 and related components by high temperature and dust, improves the corrosion resistance of the output shaft 13, and further improves the heat dissipation efficiency of the entire electric drive device through the synergistic effect of multiple heat dissipation methods. This allows the device to better adapt to the harsh conditions in the ironmaking environment, reduces equipment maintenance costs, and improves the overall durability and economy of the equipment.

[0029] A circular hole is provided at the center of the protective cover 4 so that the protective cover 4 does not come into contact with the extended shaft 14. This ensures the normal operation of each component and achieves effective protection.

For example, "connection" can be a fixed connection or a detachable connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be the internal communication of two elements or the interaction between two elements.
