[0036] Embodiments of the present disclosure are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present disclosure, and cannot be understood as a limitation of the present disclosure.
[0037] A transmission device and a cleaning device according to embodiments of the present disclosure are described below with reference to Figs. 1-9.
[0038] As shown in Figs. 1-4, the transmission device of the embodiments of the present disclosure comprises a main gear box 1, a first reduction assembly 2 and a swing module 3. The first reduction assembly 2 comprises a plurality of sets of first transmission gears 21 arranged in a preset direction within the main gear box 1 and in turn meshing transmission, the plurality of sets of first transmission gears 21 having a first input end and a first output end, the first input end being used for transmission connection with an output shaft of a first motor, and the swing module 3 being used for connecting a cleaning piece, the first output end being in transmission connection with the swing module 3 to drive the swing module 3 to rotate.
[0039] It should be noted that the plurality of sets of first transmission gears 21 are in turn meshing transmission to reduce the rotating speed of the first motor, thereby increasing the torque output by the first motor. The extension path of the preset direction can be a straight line or a curve. The plurality of sets of first transmission gears 21 of the embodiments of the present disclosure can be designed according to the specific structure of the cleaning device, which is not limited in the present application.
[0040] According to the transmission device of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first reduction assembly 2 is in meshing transmission through the plurality of sets of first transmission gears 21, the first input end of the plurality of sets of first transmission gears 21 is in transmission connection with the output shaft of the first motor, and the first output end of the plurality of sets of first transmission gears 21 is in transmission connection with the swing module 3 to drive the swing module 3 to rotate. Compared with the transmission mode of the worm and the gear, the transmission device of the embodiments of the present disclosure can significantly improve the transmission efficiency of the first reduction assembly 2, reduce the friction loss during transmission of the first reduction assembly 2, and improve the coincidence degree during transmission of the first reduction assembly 2, thereby effectively reducing the noise generated during operation of the transmission device.
[0041] Optionally, the plurality of sets of first transmission gears 21 are all helical gears. It can be understood that the adjacent two first transmission gears 21 are combined by using helical teeth. When the plurality of sets of first transmission gears 21 are all helical gears, the transmission coincidence degree of the first reduction assembly 2 can be significantly improved, and the load of each pair of helical gears is reduced, thereby improving the carrying capacity of the first transmission gears 21, prolonging the service life of the first transmission gears 21, and making the transmission of the first transmission gears 21 stable, effectively reducing the noise decibel value of the first reduction assembly 2, and being beneficial to improving the user experience.
[0042] In an example, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the multiple sets of first transmission gears 21 include a first gear 211, a second gear 212, a third gear 213, and a fourth gear 214, the first gear 211, the second gear 212, the third gear 213, and the fourth gear 214 are sequentially engaged, the first input end is arranged at the first gear 211, the first output end is arranged at the fourth gear 214, the first gear 211 is a metal gear, and the second gear 212, the third gear 213, and the fourth gear 214 are plastic gears.
[0043] It can be understood that the output shaft of the first motor is coaxially connected with the first gear 211 to drive the first gear 211 to rotate, since the first gear 211 is a metal gear and the second gear 212 is a plastic gear, the noise generated when the metal gears are engaged can be reduced, and the reliability of the power output of the first gear 211 can be ensured. In addition, since the third gear 213 and the fourth gear 214 are also plastic gears, the noise generated when the first speed reduction assembly 2 is driven can be further reduced.
[0044] As shown in FIG. 4, the second gear 212 and the third gear 213 are double helical gears, and the fourth gear 214 is a single helical gear. The second gear 212 and the third gear 213 are rotationally fixed in the main gear box 1 through the optical axis 215. For example, the first motor can be a brushless motor to prolong the service life of the first motor.
[0045] Alternatively, as shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, the swing module 3 includes a swing gear box 31, a second speed reduction assembly 32, and a rotating sleeve 33. The second speed reduction assembly 32 includes an intermediate shaft 322 and multiple sets of second transmission gears 321. The intermediate shaft 322 is arranged through the swing gear box 31 and the main gear box 1. The multiple sets of second transmission gears 321 are arranged in the swing gear box 31 in a predetermined direction and are sequentially engaged for transmission. The multiple sets of second transmission gears 321 have a second input end and a second output end. The first output end and the second input end are both in transmission connection with the intermediate shaft 322. The second output end is in transmission connection with the rotating sleeve 33. The rotating sleeve 33 is used for connecting a cleaning piece.
[0046] It can be understood that, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the upper end of the intermediate shaft 322 is arranged through the swing gear box 31 and is connected with the second input end. The lower end of the intermediate shaft 322 is arranged through the main gear box 1 and is connected with the second output end. The multiple sets of first transmission gears 21 and the multiple sets of second transmission gears 321 can be arranged in the up-down direction, thereby avoiding the problem of large horizontal space occupation caused by the direct engagement of the first transmission gears 21 and the second transmission gears 321.
[0047] As shown in FIG. 3, the swing gear box 31 is adjustable around the circumference of the intermediate shaft 322. It can be understood that the swing gear box 31 is swingable between the extended position and the retracted position, so as to adjust the angle of the swing gear box 31 around the circumference of the intermediate shaft 322, and thus the cleaning range of the cleaning element on the rotating sleeve 33 can be increased, so that the cleaning device can clean the dead angle position in the room.
[0048] Optionally, the swing angle of the swing gear box 31 around the circumference of the intermediate shaft 322 ranges from A, wherein 75°≤A≤85°. For example, the swing angle of the swing gear box 31 around the circumference of the intermediate shaft 322 ranges from A, which can be 75°, 78°, 80°, 81°, 83° and 85°. When the swing angle of the swing gear box 31 around the circumference of the intermediate shaft 322 adopts the above parameter range, the cleaning work of the cleaning device on the dead angle position can be met, and the problem of interference between the swing gear box 31 and the main gear box 1 when the swing module 3 swings can be avoided, which is beneficial to miniaturization and compact design of the transmission device.
[0049] In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 8, the main gear box 1 is provided with a first oil retaining ring 16, and at least part of the first transmission gear 21 is installed in the first oil retaining ring 16. For example, the first oil retaining ring 16 is formed on the bottom wall and / or the top wall in the main gear box 1. The first oil retaining ring 16 is arranged around the circumference of the first reduction assembly 2 and is spaced apart from the outer circumferential wall of the first transmission gear 21 by a certain distance.
[0050] When the transmission device is working, the main gear box 1 has lubricating grease, and when the first transmission gear 21 rotates, the lubricating grease attached to the first transmission gear 21 will be thrown out and separated from the first transmission gear 21. Since the first oil retaining ring 16 is arranged around the circumference of the first reduction assembly 2, the lubricating grease thrown out by the first transmission gear 21 can be blocked by the first oil retaining ring 16, so as to optimize the flow path of the lubricating grease in the main gear box 1, so that the chamber formed by the first oil retaining ring 16 is filled with lubricating grease, thereby the first transmission gear 21 can be fully lubricated, so as to prolong the service life of the first reduction assembly 2.
[0051] Similarly, as shown in FIG. 6, the swing gear box 31 is provided with a second oil retaining ring 314, and at least part of the second transmission gear 321 is installed in the second oil retaining ring 314. For example, the second oil retaining ring 314 is formed on the bottom wall and / or the top wall in the swing gear box 31. The second oil retaining ring 314 is arranged around the circumference of the second reduction assembly 32 and is spaced apart from the outer circumferential wall of the second transmission gear 321 by a certain distance.
[0052] When the transmission is working, the swing gear box 31 has lubricating grease, the lubricating grease thrown out by the second transmission gear 321 can be blocked by the second oil retaining ring 314 to optimize the flow path of the lubricating grease in the swing gear box 31, so that the cavity formed by the second oil retaining ring 314 is filled with lubricating grease, thereby the second transmission gear 321 can be fully lubricated to prolong the service life of the second reduction assembly 32.
[0053] Optionally, as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 8, the wall surface of the main gear box 1 is provided with first reinforcing ribs 17, and the first reinforcing ribs 17 can be multiple, and the multiple first reinforcing ribs 17 are arranged on the wall surface of the main gear box 1 at intervals. The first reinforcing ribs 17 can be arranged at the weak positions of the main gear box 1 to improve the structural strength of the main gear box 1.
[0054] For example, part of the first reinforcing ribs 17 is connected with the first oil retaining ring 16. It can be understood that one end of the first reinforcing ribs 17 is connected with the wall surface of the main gear box 1, and the other end of the first reinforcing ribs 17 is connected with the wall surface of the first oil retaining ring 16, thereby the structural strength of the first oil retaining ring 16 can be improved.
[0055] As shown in FIG. 6, the wall surface of the swing gear box 31 is provided with second reinforcing ribs 315, and the second reinforcing ribs 315 can be multiple, and the multiple second reinforcing ribs 315 are arranged on the wall surface of the swing gear box 31 at intervals. The second reinforcing ribs 315 can be arranged at the weak positions of the swing gear box 31 to improve the structural strength of the swing gear box 31.
[0056] For example, part of the second reinforcing ribs 315 is connected with the second oil retaining ring 314. It can be understood that one end of the second reinforcing ribs 315 is connected with the wall surface of the swing gear box 31, and the other end of the second reinforcing ribs 315 is connected with the wall surface of the second oil retaining ring 314, thereby the structural strength of the second oil retaining ring 314 can be improved.
[0057] In an example, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the main gear box 1 includes a bottom shell 14, a main shell 11, a main cover 12 and an upper cover 13, the bottom shell 14 is arranged at the lower end of the main shell 11 and defines a first gear cavity 151, the main cover 12 is arranged at the upper end of the main shell 11 and defines a swing cavity 152, and the upper cover 13 is arranged at the upper end of the main cover 12 and defines a swing control cavity 153. The first reduction assembly 2 is arranged in the main gear box 1, the swing gear box 31 is arranged in the swing cavity 152, and the swing gear box 31 is swingable in the swing cavity 152. By arranging the swing cavity 152, the problem that the swing gear box 31 interferes with other parts of the cleaning equipment when the swing gear box 31 swings can be avoided, the probability that the swing gear box 31 stalls when it swings is reduced, and the reliability of the swing module working is improved.
[0058] As shown in FIG. 9, the transmission further comprises a swing control assembly 4, which is arranged in the swing control cavity 153 and has a third input end and a third output end. The third input end is configured to be connected with the second motor, and the third output end is in transmission connection with the swing gear box 31 to drive the swing gear box 31 to rotate around the circumference of the middle shaft 322. The second motor is arranged outside the main gear box 1, and the second motor drives the swing control assembly 4 in the swing control cavity 153 to act, so as to swing the swing gear box 31 between the extended position and the retracted position. For example, the second motor can be a brushless motor, so as to prolong the service life of the second motor.
[0059] Optionally, as shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, the swing gear box 31 comprises a swing shell 311, a swing top cover 312 and a retainer 313. The swing top cover 312 is arranged at the upper end of the swing shell 311 and defines a second gear cavity 316 with the swing shell 311. The second reduction assembly 32 is arranged in the second gear cavity 316, and the third output end is in transmission connection with the swing top cover 312. The retainer 313 is arranged at the lower end of the swing shell 311, and the rotating sleeve 33 is rotatably arranged in the retainer 313. The transmission further comprises a plurality of rollers 34. Part of the rollers 34 are rotatably arranged between the swing top cover 312 and the main cover body 12, and the other part of the rollers 34 are rotatably arranged between the rotating sleeve 33 and the swing shell 311. For example, the roller 34 can be a cylindrical roller 34, and of course, the roller 34 can also be understood as a spherical ball.
[0060] The transmission of the embodiment of the present disclosure can avoid the problem of shaking of the rotating sleeve 33 when rotating by arranging the retainer 313, and is beneficial to improve the stability of the rotating sleeve 33 when rotating. In addition, since part of the rollers 34 are rotatably arranged between the rotating sleeve 33 and the swing shell 311, the rotation of the rotating sleeve 33 can be assisted, and the friction loss of the rotating sleeve 33 can be reduced. By rotatably arranging the roller 34 between the swing top cover 312 and the main cover body 12, the swing of the swing gear box 31 between the extended position and the retracted position can be assisted, and the stability of the swing gear box 31 when swinging can be improved. Thus, the axial stability of the rotating sleeve 33 when rotating can be ensured, and the cleaning effect can be improved.
[0061] In an example, as shown in FIG. 9, the swing control assembly 4 comprises a third transmission gear 41, a fourth transmission gear 42 and a swing cam 43. The third input is arranged on the third transmission gear 41, and the output shaft of the second motor is coaxially connected with the third transmission gear 41. The fourth transmission gear 42 is in meshing transmission with the third transmission gear 41, and the fourth transmission gear 42 has a push rod 421 which is in abutment with the swing cam 43. The swing cam 43 is rotationally connected with the main cover 12, and the swing top cover 312 has an upwardly protruding connecting portion 3121 which is located on the same axis as the intermediate shaft 322, and the swing cam 43 is fixedly connected with the connecting portion 3121. In other words, when the swing cam 43 swings, the swing cam 43 can drive the swing gear box 31 to swing synchronously around the axis of the intermediate shaft 322.
[0062] The second motor can drive the push rod 421 to rotate through the third transmission gear 41, so as to swing the swing cam 43 between the first position and the second position. It can be understood that the first position and the second position of the swing cam 43 correspond to the extended position and the retracted position of the swing gear box 31 respectively. When the push rod 421 swings the swing cam 43 to the first position, the swing gear box 31 is correspondingly moved to the extended position, and when the push rod 421 swings the swing cam 43 to the second position, the swing gear box 31 is correspondingly moved to the retracted position.
[0063] In order to improve the speed of swinging the swing cam 43 between the first position and the second position, an elastic member 44 can be arranged on the swing cam 43. For example, the elastic member 44 can be a tension spring or a torsion spring. In the example of the present application, the elastic member 44 is a tension spring. One end of the elastic member 44 is fixed on the main cover 12, and the other end of the elastic member 44 is eccentrically connected with the swing cam 43.
[0064] In order to limit the movement of the push rod 421, a limit switch 45 can be arranged on the main cover 12. When the push rod 421 contacts the limit switch 45, it indicates that the movement of the push rod 421 reaches the specified position (the first position or the second position).
[0065] Optionally, one of the outer periphery of the main shell 11 and the outer edge of the main cover 12 is provided with a first convex stop, and the other is provided with a first concave stop. The first convex stop is in position matching with the first concave stop. One of the outer periphery of the swing shell 311 and the outer edge of the swing top cover 312 is provided with a second convex stop, and the other is provided with a second concave stop. The second convex stop is in position matching with the second concave stop. It can be understood that the splicing positions of the first gear cavity 151 and the second gear cavity 316 are connected through the convex stop and the concave stop, so as to avoid the problem of leakage of lubricating grease from the splicing positions of the first gear cavity 151 and the second gear cavity 316, and to improve the sealing effect of the first gear cavity 151 and the second gear cavity 316.
[0066] Optionally, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 9, at least one of the bottom surface of the bottom shell 14 and the upper end surface of the main cover body 12 is provided with a wire slot 18. In the example of the present application, the bottom surface of the bottom shell 14 and the upper end surface of the main cover body 12 are both provided with the wire slot 18. It can be understood that the wire slot 18 can be a groove structure, or a plurality of limiting protrusions arranged at intervals to form a wire channel structure. The transmission device of the embodiment of the present application can collect the wires of the transmission device by providing the wire slot 18, so as to solve the problem of wire twisting between the transmission device and the moving part, and improve the reliability of the cleaning equipment in operation.
[0067] The cleaning equipment of another embodiment of the present application comprises the transmission device of the embodiment of the present application. For example, the cleaning equipment can be a sweeping robot, a mopping robot or a sweeping and mopping integrated robot.
