The utility model relates to the technical field of
mechanical design and manufacturing, and discloses a
lubricant retaining structure of a transmission shaft, which comprises a transmission shaft, a fixed disc, a sliding component, an auxiliary component and a lifting component, a sliding
assembly is embedded in the transmission shaft, and a fixing disc is fixedly arranged on the transmission shaft. The sliding
assembly is fixedly sleeved with an auxiliary
assembly, and a lifting assembly is arranged in the auxiliary assembly. A positive and negative rotation motor in the lifting assembly drives a lead screw to drive an embedding ring and a retaining plate to move, the position height of the retaining plate is adjusted and controlled
through transmission of the lead screw and the embedding ring, the storage space and the conveying amount of a
lubricant in a retaining box are accurately adjusted, waste and defects are avoided, and the working efficiency is improved. A large-capacity storage space is provided through the retaining box of the auxiliary assembly, the retaining box is fixed to the outer side of the
scarf joint cylinder, the supplementing frequency is reduced,
scarf joint of the sliding assembly and the transmission shaft and the connecting mode of all the assemblies are simple and easy to operate, mounting and dismounting are convenient and fast, the mounting difficulty and
time cost are reduced, and the assembling efficiency and
maintainability are improved.
