Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of robotic equipment, and more particularly to a swing power unit, a two-stage reduction swing power unit, and a robot. [Background technology]
[0002] The swing power unit is a key component of a robot, and its performance directly affects the robot's power performance. However, conventional swing power units generally use a single-stage planetary reduction system, which has a small reduction ratio.
[0003] Chinese patent (disclosure number CN114789761A) discloses an integrated module for an electric drive joint and a three-degree-of-freedom bionic robot joint, in which the electric drive joint includes a housing assembly, a motor assembly, a single-stage reducer assembly, a double-stage reducer assembly, an encoder assembly, and a bearing unit, and the module includes a knee joint unit, a front swing unit, a lateral deployment unit, and a leg unit, the electric drive joint uses an axial magnetic motor, the knee joint unit and the front swing joint unit are arranged in the same direction, and the output axis of the lateral deployment joint unit is arranged perpendicular to the axis of the front swing joint, the encoder assembly includes an encoder and an encoder magnetic pole, the tail end of the output shaft is fixedly connected to the magnet of the magnetic encoder, and an encoder collection board 5.1 is fixed to the housing assembly.
[0004] However, the encoder assembly in the above solution cannot detect and provide feedback on the state of the motor's input end (rotor end), but can only detect and provide feedback on the state of the output end, which affects the control accuracy of the electric drive slewing unit. If the encoder assembly is directly added to the motor's input end, cables must be simultaneously installed at the motor's output end and input end, and two circuit layouts must be designed, which makes the wiring of the electric drive slewing unit complex and less reliable.
[0005] Furthermore, the solutions of both of the above-mentioned reduction gears do not disclose the cable circuit layout method. If the cable is externally connected, it will affect the cable's lifespan. In addition, the wiring of the swivel unit will be complicated. If a conventional hollow circuit layout is adopted, it will pass directly through various components, which will pose a safety risk.
[0006] The information disclosed in this Background of the Invention is merely used to understand the background of the concept of the present invention and may include information that does not constitute prior art. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0007] To address the above problem or one of the above problems, the present invention aims to provide a swing power unit, which is equipped with an output angular rotation transmission member and integrates the status monitoring of the input and output ends, with the output rotation sensor and input rotation sensor both located at the front or rear end of the swing power unit. Therefore, by simply placing a cable at one end of the swing power unit, status monitoring and feedback of the input and output ends of the swing power unit can be achieved, and the wiring of the electronic control system of the swing power unit is simple, reliable, and low cost.
[0008] To address the above problem or one of the above problems, the present invention aims to provide a two-stage reduction slewing power unit2, which is equipped with an output angle rotation transmission member and integrates status monitoring of the two-stage planetary carrier and the motor rotor. Therefore, by simply placing a cable on the motor rotor, status monitoring and feedback of the input and output of the two-stage reduction slewing power unit can be achieved, and the wiring of the electronic control system of the slewing power unit is simple, reliable, and low cost.
[0009] To address the above-mentioned problems or one of the above-mentioned problems, the present invention aims to provide a two-stage reduction slewing power unit, which has a compact structure and uses a two-stage planetary reduction to achieve a large reduction ratio.
[0010] The present invention aims to provide a robot with an output angular rotation transmission member, simple wiring for the electronic control system, high reliability, and a large reduction ratio by using a two-stage planetary reduction. [Means for solving the problem]
[0011] In order to achieve one of the above objectives, the first technical solution of the present invention is as follows: A swing power unit, including an input end and an output end, An input rotation sensor is attached to one of the input end and the output end, and an output angular rotation transmission member is fixedly connected to the other end, the output angular rotation transmission member extends to an input rotation sensor; An output rotation sensor is installed at the position of the adjacent input rotation sensor, The output rotation sensor and the output angle rotation transmission member are connected to complete the detection of the states of the input end and the output end at one end of the swing power unit.
[0012] After continuous research and experimentation, the present invention has been found to provide an output angular rotation transmission member and integrate the status monitoring of the input and output ends, with the output rotation sensor and input rotation sensor both located at the front or rear end of the swing power unit. Therefore, by simply placing a cable at one end of the swing power unit, status monitoring and feedback for the input and output ends of the swing power unit can be achieved, and the wiring for the electronic control system of the swing power unit is simple, reliable, and low cost.

The output angle rotation transmission member has a T-shaped structure with a through hole, and its rod portion is drilled into the hollow center of rotation. The cable passes through the through hole of the output angle rotation transmission member, preventing the cable from being attached externally. The output angle rotation transmission member also isolates the cable from the outside, preventing the cable from coming into contact with various components and wearing out, resulting in a high level of safety and a solution that is easily implemented.
[0016] Furthermore, the input end may be the rotor of a motor unit or the input end of a reduction gear unit, and may have a cylindrical structure, a sheet structure, a frame structure, a square structure, or an annular structure.
[0017] Furthermore, the output end may be the output end of a single-stage planetary reduction mechanism or a two-stage planetary reduction mechanism, and may have a cylindrical structure, a sheet structure, a frame structure, a square structure, or an annular structure.

[0019] When the input rotation sensor is attached to the rotating part of the motor unit, the input rotation sensor is a motor rotor rotation sensor, and when the input rotation sensor is attached to the input end of the reduction gear unit, the input rotation sensor is an input angle rotation sensor.
[0020] After continuous research and experimentation, this invention has found that an output angular rotation transmission member is provided at the output end, and the status monitoring of the output end is consolidated at the input end or electronic rotor, so that the output rotation sensor and the input rotation sensor are both provided at the rear end (input end) of the swing power unit.

[0022] After continuous research and experimentation, this invention has been found to provide an output angle rotation transmission member and integrate the status monitoring of the two-stage planetary carrier and the motor rotor. Therefore, by simply placing a cable on the motor rotor, it is possible to realize the status monitoring and feedback of the input and output of the two-stage reduction slewing power unit. The wiring of the electronic control system of the slewing power unit is simple, reliable, and low cost.
[0023] In addition, the two-stage reduction slewing power unit provided by the present invention uses a two-stage planetary reduction gear unit, which has a high reduction ratio, and the output stage speed ratio can be flexibly adjusted according to different usage situations, such as different usage situations of the hip joint or knee joint of the robot.
[0024] Suitable technical measures include: The motor rotor has a recessed cavity at its rotation center for accommodating the single-stage planetary reduction mechanism, which makes the joint unit compact in structure and reduces its axial size. Furthermore, the rotor also has a cavity for accommodating the single-stage planetary reduction mechanism, which fully utilizes space to make the entire swing power unit more compact and reduce its volume.
[0025] Or / and, the output angle rotation transmission member passes through the second-stage planetary carrier, the second-stage sun gear, the first-stage planetary carrier, the first-stage sun gear, and the motor rotor, thereby making the structure of the swing power unit compact.

In fact, when applied to a robot, various cables can be connected to pass through the hollow axis of the joint unit.
[0028] As a preferred technical solution, the first-stage sun gear is integrally molded with the motor rotor, and the second-stage sun gear is integrally molded with the first-stage planetary carrier, which has a simple structure, high precision, and low cost.

Alternatively, the first-stage sun gear is rotatably connected to the first-stage planetary carrier by two bearings, which ensures good concentricity between the sun gear and the planetary carrier, a long service life, and a compact structure.
[0030] As a preferred technical solution, the base includes a sensor rear cover, an input end base, and an output end base, which are fixed and sealed in order, an output end cover is fixedly disposed on the outside of the two-stage planetary carrier, an end of the output angle rotation transmission member extends until it penetrates the sensor rear cover, a dynamic sealing means is provided between the output end cover and the output end base, and an oil sealing means or a support bearing is provided between the output angle rotation transmission member and the sensor rear cover, so that the joint has excellent sealing protection performance.

By providing a connecting passage that passes through the entire swing power unit, cables can be easily routed and the external circuit layout can be reduced. Furthermore, by adopting a two-stage reduction system, the central sun gear is correspondingly larger than that of a single-stage reduction system with the same outer diameter, creating a requirement for a central cavity. Furthermore, since the entire swing power unit has a hollow axis, various cables can easily pass through.
[0032] In order to achieve one of the above objectives, the fourth technical solution of this invention is as follows: A robot includes the above-mentioned turning power unit or the above-mentioned two-stage reduction turning power unit, and the robot is a quadruped robot, a biped robot, or a caster-equipped robot.
