Detailed Description
It should be noted that the embodiments and features of the embodiments may be combined with each other without conflict.
The steering transmission mechanism 100 of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the embodiments with reference to the drawings.
As shown in fig. 1 to 3, a steering gear 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a driving member 110, a driven member 120, and a drive ball 130.
The driving ball 130 has a central axis 131, the driving ball 130 can rotate around the central axis 131, and the driving element 110 and the driven element 120 are respectively attached to the driving ball 130 so that the driving element 110 drives the driven element 120 to rotate through the driving ball 130.
In other words, the driving member 110 drives the driving ball 130 to rotate, and then the driving ball 130 drives the driven member 120 to rotate, thereby completing the power transmission from the driving member 110 to the driven member 120.
It will be appreciated that the center shaft 131 passes through the center of the drive ball 130 or the extension of the center shaft 131 passes through the center of the drive ball 130, so that the drive ball 130 can be stably rotated without eccentric rotation, which is important to the stability of the driving member 110 and the driven member 120 during operation.
The central shaft 131 may rotate about the transmission ratio adjustment axis of the transmission ball 130, thereby changing a linear distance between the driving member 110 and the central shaft 131 and a linear distance between the driven member 120 and the central shaft 131.
The central shaft 131 can rotate around the transmission ratio adjustment axis of the transmission ball 130, and since the positions of the driving element 110 and the driven element 120 are not changed, the linear distance between the driving element 110 and the central shaft 131 and the linear distance between the driven element 120 and the central shaft 131 are changed.
Therefore, the purpose of changing the transmission ratio between the driving part 110 and the driven part 120 is achieved, the transmission ratio between the driving part 110 and the driven part 120 can be changed under different working conditions of the vehicle, and the steering accuracy is improved.
The steering transmission mechanism 100 of the embodiment of the invention has the advantages of simple structure, easy installation and low requirement on arrangement space, and can change the transmission ratio between the driving part 110 and the driven part 120 in a stepless manner, thereby steering more conveniently and accurately.
It can be understood that the transmission ratio adjustment axis of the transmission ball 130 passes through the center of the sphere, that is, the central shaft 131 can rotate around its own midpoint (center of the sphere), so that the transmission ball 130 does not rotate eccentrically, and the driving member 110 and the driven member 120 are ensured to rotate only around their own axes without shifting in three directions, thereby ensuring the stability of the operation of the driving member 110 and the driven member 120.
The central shaft 131 has a first end 131a and a second end 131b, the first end 131a is located on the same side of the driving member 110, and the second end 131b is located on the same side of the driven member 120. When the first end 131a is far away from the driving part 110, the straight distance (R shown in fig. 1) of the driving part 110 from the central axis 131 becomes large; meanwhile, the second end 131b is close to the driven member 120, the linear distance (r shown in fig. 1) from the central axis 131 of the driven member 120 becomes smaller, and the transmission ratio between the driving member 110 and the driven member 120 becomes smaller.
When the first end 131a approaches the driving part 110, the linear distance from the driving part 110 to the central axis 131 becomes smaller; meanwhile, the second end 131b is far away from the driven member 120, the linear distance from the driven member 120 to the central axis 131 is increased, and the transmission ratio between the driving member 110 and the driven member 120 is increased.
Thus, the change of the transmission ratio between the driving part 110 and the driven part 120 can be achieved by the rotation of the transmission ball 130 about the transmission ratio adjustment axis of the transmission ball 130, and since the spherical surface of the transmission ball 130 is always in smooth contact with the driving part 110 and the driven part 120, the stepless speed change between the driving part 110 and the driven part 120 can be achieved.
As shown in fig. 1, the steering gear 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention further includes a first guide rail 140 and a second guide rail 150 facing each other, and both ends of the central shaft 131 can slide along the first guide rail 140 and the second guide rail 150, respectively. The first guide rail 140 and the second guide rail 150 are formed in the same shape as the driving ball 130.
Specifically, the first end 131a of the central shaft 131 can slide along the first guide rail 140, and the second end 131b of the central shaft 131 can slide along the second guide rail 150, thereby enabling the central shaft 131 to rotate about the transmission ratio adjustment axis of the transmission ball 130.
The drive ball 130 of the present embodiment is a circular ball and the first guide rail 140 and the second guide rail 150 are portions of a circular guide rail. The transmission ball 130 is a round ball, so that the transmission ball 130 cannot force the driving member 110 and the driven member 120 to move in the rotating process, and the driving member 110 and the driven member 120 only rotate around respective axes, thereby ensuring the running stability of the driving member 110 and the driven member 120.
In a particular example of the present invention, the ratio adjustment axis is orthogonal to the plane formed by the first guide rail 140 and the second guide rail 150, and the ratio adjustment axis passes through the center of the sphere of the drive ball 130.
Of course, it is understood that the transmission ratio adjustment axis is not limited to the above-mentioned one, as long as it is ensured that the linear distance between the driving member 110 and the intermediate shaft 131 and the linear distance between the driven member 120 and the intermediate shaft 131 are changed when the central shaft 131 rotates around the transmission ratio adjustment axis. The gear ratio adjustment axis may vary with the position of the first guide rail 140 and the second guide rail 150.
Specifically, the driving member 110 includes an input shaft 111 and a driving wheel 112, and an outer peripheral surface of the driving wheel 112 is a concave spherical surface to be attached to the transmission ball 130; the follower 120 includes an output shaft 121 and a follower 122, and the outer peripheral surface of the follower 122 is a concave spherical surface to be fitted with the transmission ball 130.
Therefore, the driving wheel 112 and the driven wheel 122 are ensured to be tightly attached to the transmission balls 130, power transmission between the driving wheel 112 and the transmission balls 130 is realized by friction force, and power transmission between the transmission balls 130 and the driven wheel 122 is realized by friction force.
Of course, it will be appreciated that the transmission of power between the driving member 110 and the drive ball 130, and between the drive ball 130 and the driven member 120, may be accomplished in other ways.
For example, the driving ball 130 may have driving ball gear teeth on an outer circumferential surface thereof, the driving wheel 112 may have driving member gear teeth thereon, the driven wheel 122 may have driven member gear teeth thereon, the driving member gear teeth and the driven member gear teeth may be respectively engaged with the driving ball gear teeth, and the driving member gear teeth and the driven member gear teeth may slide along the driving ball gear teeth. Thereby achieving power transmission between the driving member 110 and the driven member 120 and a change in the transmission ratio between the driving member 110 and the driven member 120.
In some embodiments of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1 to 3, the steering transmission mechanism 100 further includes a first driving motor 161 and a second driving motor 162, and an output shaft of the first driving motor 161 and an output shaft of the second driving motor 162 are respectively connected to both ends of the central shaft 131 to drive the central shaft 131 to rotate about the transmission ratio adjustment axis of the transmission ball 130.
Specifically, the output shaft of the first driving motor 161 is connected to a first lead screw 171, the first lead screw 171 is engaged with a first transmission block 181, and the first transmission block 181 is fixed to the first end 131a of the central shaft 131. The output shaft of the first driving motor 161 can drive the first lead screw 171 to rotate, and the first lead screw 171 is matched with the first transmission block 181, so that the rotary motion of the output shaft of the first driving motor 161 can be converted into linear motion, and the first end 131a of the central shaft 131 is driven to move up and down.
The output shaft of the second driving motor 162 is connected to a second lead screw 172, and the second lead screw 172 is engaged with a second transmission block (not shown) fixed to the second end 131b of the central shaft 131. The output shaft of the second driving motor 162 can drive the second lead screw 172 to rotate, and the second lead screw 172 is matched with the second transmission block, so that the rotary motion of the output shaft of the second driving motor 162 can be converted into linear motion, and the second end 131b of the central shaft 131 is driven to move up and down.
A transmission bearing 132 is arranged between the central shaft 131 and the transmission ball 130, the outer ring of the transmission bearing 132 is in interference fit with the transmission ball 130, and the inner ring of the transmission bearing 132 is in interference fit with the central shaft 131. Optionally, the drive bearing 132 is a needle bearing.
As shown in fig. 4, a shoulder 133 and a snap spring groove 101 are formed on the central shaft 131, a snap spring 134 is disposed in the snap spring groove 101, an outer diameter of the snap spring 134 is larger than that of the central shaft 130, and the transmission bearing 132 can be clamped between the shoulder 133 and the snap spring 134. Thus, the drive bearing 132 is easily installed and removed.
