[0030] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0031] like Figures 1-8 As shown, according to a first aspect of the present application, a speed reducer 100 is provided, including a speed reduction assembly 4 and a torque sensor 1. The speed reduction assembly 4 includes an output end. The torque sensor 1 includes an output flange 11, at least one strain gauge 13, and a circuit board 12. The output flange 11 is connected to the output end and is provided with at least one strain beam 112. The strain gauge 13 is disposed on the strain beam 112, and the circuit board 12 is disposed on the output flange 11. The circuit board 12 is electrically connected to the strain gauge 13.

[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, the reducer 100 includes a reduction assembly 4 and a torque sensor 1; wherein, the reduction assembly 4 includes an output end, the output flange 11 of the torque sensor 1 is connected to the output end, the output flange 11 is used for external load, the torque sensor 1 can output the rotational force output by the reduction assembly 4, and the torque sensor 1 can detect the torque it receives.

[0033] Specifically, the torque sensor 1 includes an output flange 11, at least one strain gauge 13, and at least one circuit board 12. This can be understood as the torque sensor 1 including one, two, or more strain gauges 13. The strain gauges 13 are disposed on the strain beam 112 and are electrically connected to the circuit board 12. The strain beam 112 deforms with changes in load, and the strain gauges 13 can detect minute changes in the strain beam 112. The circuit board 12 detects the magnitude of this minute deformation of the strain beam 112 through the strain gauges 13, and calculates the magnitude of the output force through a series of signal processing steps, thereby realizing the detection of the output torque of the reducer 100.

[0034] The reducer 100 of this application detects the output torque of the reducer 100 by setting a torque sensor 1 at the output end of the reducer assembly 4. The torque sensor 1 serves as the output component of the reducer 100, eliminating the need for additional output components, thereby reducing the number of parts and the weight of the reducer 100. Furthermore, if the reducer assembly 4 malfunctions, the torque sensor 1 can quickly detect its own torque change, thereby stopping the machine immediately and preventing safety accidents.

Specifically, the temperature sensor 6 is used to detect the temperature of the grease when the reducer assembly 4 is working, and to reflect the ambient temperature of the reducer assembly 4, so as to facilitate temperature compensation of the reducer assembly 4.

[0036] In one optional embodiment, the reducer 100 includes an iron content sensor 7, which is disposed on the reducer assembly 4; specifically, the iron content sensor 7 is used to detect the iron powder content in the grease of the reducer assembly 4, and to reflect the wear condition of the reducer assembly 4.

[0037] like Figure 4 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the circuit board 12 is disposed on the output flange 11. This can be understood as the circuit board 12 being disposed within the groove 111 opened in the output flange 11, or disposed outside the groove 111.

[0038] like Figures 5-8 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the output flange 11 has at least two grooves 111, and a strain beam 112 is formed between the two grooves 111. The circuit board 12 is disposed in one of the grooves 111. Specifically, the output flange 11 having at least two grooves 111 can be understood as having two, three, or more grooves 111. In this embodiment, the output flange 11 having two grooves 111 is used as an example. The depth direction of the grooves 111 is the same as the axial direction of the reducer 100. The opening 1111 of the grooves 111 is located at the end of the output flange 11 away from the reduction assembly 4. The two grooves 111 are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the output flange 11. The two grooves 111 are not connected. A spacer plate is formed between the two grooves 111. The spacer plate is the strain beam 112. The number of strain beams 112 can be one or two.

[0039] To further explain, strain gauge 13 is disposed on strain beam 112, and circuit board 12 is disposed in groove 111; specifically, circuit board 12 is disposed in groove 111, strain gauge 13 is located in groove 111 and disposed on strain beam 112, and strain gauge 13 is electrically connected to circuit board 12; in this embodiment, the circuit board 12 is disposed in groove 111, which provides mounting space for circuit board 12, thereby making the structure of torque sensor 1 more compact; and both circuit board 12 and strain gauge 13 are in groove 111, which facilitates electrical connection between circuit board 12 and strain gauge 13.

[0041] To further explain, the torque sensor 1 includes a plurality of strain gauges 13, all of which are electrically connected to the circuit board 12. Each strain beam 112 is provided with at least one strain gauge 13. Specifically, since a strain beam 112 is formed between two adjacent grooves 111, multiple grooves 111 can also form multiple strain beams 112. Each groove 111 is provided with at least one strain gauge 13, and each strain beam 112 is provided with at least one strain gauge 13, thereby enabling the detection of minute changes generated by each strain beam 112, and thus improving the detection accuracy.

[0042] In one alternative embodiment, the torque sensor 1 further includes a potting portion that surrounds the circuit board 12 to seal the circuit board 12; specifically, the potting portion is used to seal the circuit board 12 to protect the circuit board 12 from grease contamination of the circuit board 12 by the deceleration assembly 4.

The temperature sensor 6 is disposed on the side of the support bearing cover 41 facing the reduction section 44. In this embodiment, the temperature sensor 6 is used to detect the grease temperature of the reduction section 44 to reflect the ambient temperature of the reduction section 44, so as to compensate for the temperature of the friction force of the reduction section 44 during operation, so as to avoid the temperature of the reduction section 44 being too high and affecting the operation of the reduction section 44.

[0044] like Figure 4As shown, in another specific embodiment, the reducer 100 further includes a housing 2, the interior of which forms a receiving cavity 21. The reduction assembly 4 includes a support bearing cover 41, a reduction section 44, and a first support bearing 42. The reduction section 44 is located in the receiving cavity 21. The support bearing cover 41 is connected to the housing 2. The support bearing cover 41 and the reduction section 44 cooperate through the first support bearing 42. The iron content sensor 7 is located on the side of the support bearing cover 41 facing the reduction section 44. Specifically, the iron content sensor 7 is used to detect the iron powder content in the grease of the reduction section 44, thereby detecting the wear condition of the reduction section 4 and predicting the lifespan of the reduction section 44, so as to facilitate timely inspection, maintenance, and replacement of the reduction section 44.

[0045] like Figure 4 As shown, in another specific embodiment, the reducer 100 further includes a housing 2, an iron content sensor 7, and a temperature sensor 6. The housing 2 forms a receiving cavity 21. The reduction assembly 4 includes a support bearing cover 41, a reduction section 44, and a first support bearing 42. The reduction section 44 is located in the receiving cavity 21. The support bearing cover 41 is connected to the housing 2, and the support bearing cover 41 and the reduction section 44 cooperate via the first support bearing 42. The iron content sensor 7 is located on the side of the support bearing cover 41 facing the reduction section 44, and the temperature sensor 6 is located on the support shaft. The cover 41 faces the side of the deceleration unit 44, and the iron content sensor 7 and the temperature sensor 6 are arranged at intervals. Specifically, the temperature sensor 6 is used to detect the temperature of the grease in the deceleration unit 44, reflecting the ambient temperature of the deceleration unit 44, so as to compensate for the temperature of the friction force of the deceleration unit 44 during operation, so as to avoid the temperature of the deceleration unit 44 being too high and affecting its operation. The iron content sensor 7 is used to detect the iron powder content in the grease of the deceleration unit 44, thereby detecting the wear condition of the deceleration unit 44, and predicting the life of the deceleration unit 44, so as to facilitate timely inspection, maintenance and replacement of the deceleration unit 44.

[0046] like Figure 4As shown, in an optional embodiment, the reducer 100 further includes a hollow shaft 3 and a main control board 5.

The temperature sensor 6 and the iron content sensor 7 are electrically connected to the main control board 5. Specifically, the hollow shaft 3 is located in the receiving cavity 21, and a wiring channel 31 is formed inside the hollow shaft 3. The hollow shaft 3 and the reduction section... 44 is rotatably connected via the second support bearing 43, and the hollow shaft 3 is fixedly connected to the output flange 11. Therefore, the hollow shaft 3 will rotate together with the output flange 11. Since the main control board 5 and the torque sensor 1 are located at opposite ends of the housing 2, the connecting wire harness between the main control board 5 and the torque sensor 1 will pass through the wiring channel 31 of the hollow shaft 3, and the hollow shaft 3 can provide wiring space for the connecting wire harness. The temperature sensor 6 and the iron content sensor 7 are both electrically connected to the main control board 5. The temperature sensor 6 transmits the detection signal to the main control board 5, the iron content sensor 7 transmits the detection signal to the main control board 5, and the torque sensor 1 transmits the detection signal to the main control board 5.

The inner ring of the crossed roller bearing 10 mates with the outer ring of the output flange 11, and the outer ring of the crossed roller bearing 10 mates with the inner wall of the housing 2. The bending moment transmitted by the external load can be transmitted to the housing 2 through the crossed roller bearing 10 to avoid affecting the strain gauge beam 112, thereby filtering out forces in the non-torque direction to avoid affecting the detection accuracy of the torque sensor 1.

[0048] In one alternative embodiment, the deceleration unit 44 may be a planetary deceleration unit.

[0049] In another alternative embodiment, the deceleration unit 44 is a harmonic deceleration unit.
