Detailed Description
In the prior art, a worm and gear meshing clearance adjusting mechanism generates noise in the process of eliminating the meshing clearance. The adjusting mechanism for the meshing clearance of the worm and gear is provided with the first bulge made of elastic material and the second bulge made of elastic material, so that the adjusting mechanism can eliminate the meshing clearance of the worm and gear, reduce noise and improve the driving comfort of a driver.
In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in detail below.
Referring to fig. 1, in the present embodiment, the speed reduction mechanism is an electric power steering system, and includes a housing 10, and the housing 10 is a steering gear housing. The housing 10 has a worm wheel mounting cavity 11 and a worm mounting cavity 12, a worm wheel 20 is mounted in the worm wheel mounting cavity 11, and a worm 30 is mounted in the worm mounting cavity 12. Fig. 1 shows only a partial structure of the worm wheel 20 and a partial structure of the worm shaft 30. In the axial direction of the worm shaft 30, the worm shaft 30 has a first end 31 and a second end, only the first end 31 of the worm shaft 30 being shown in fig. 1.
Due to the influence of factors such as machining errors, assembly errors and tool environments, the worm and gear have meshing gaps. Noise is generated during steering, and the comfort of a driver is affected. To eliminate the backlash of the worm gear, with continued reference to fig. 1, a worm gear backlash adjustment mechanism 40 is sleeved on the first end 31 of the worm 30 for eliminating the backlash of the worm gear.
Specifically, referring to fig. 2, the worm gear backlash adjustment mechanism 40 includes: the outer ring 41 and the open-ring inner ring 42 are provided with a gap A in the radial direction, and the outer surface of the inner ring 42 is fixedly connected with the inner surface of the outer ring 41. In this embodiment, the outer surface of the inner ring 42 is protruded with a connecting portion 44 for fixedly connecting with the inner surface of the outer ring 41. Referring to fig. 1, the outer ring 41 of the adjusting mechanism 40 abuts against the wall of the worm mounting cavity 12, the first end 31 of the worm 30 is provided with a bearing 50 for bearing a radial load, and the inner ring 42 of the adjusting mechanism 40 is fitted around the outer circumferential surface of the bearing 50.
In this embodiment, the outer ring 41 of the adjusting mechanism 40 is a closed ring, and in other embodiments, may be an open ring; in addition, the first end 31 of the worm shaft 30 is provided with a bearing 50 in the present embodiment, and in other embodiments, the second end of the worm shaft is provided with a bearing; or the first end and the second end of the output shaft of the worm are both provided with bearings; correspondingly, the inner ring of the adjusting mechanism is sleeved on the outer peripheral surface of the bearing.
Referring to fig. 3 and 4, an embodiment of the present invention is provided with an elastic member 43 capable of generating a radially pressing force between the inner race 42 and the outer race 41. After the worm gear and the worm are assembled, the worm gear and the worm are meshed well, the elastic element 43 is in an initial state, and initial pretightening force exists. After the worm gear works for a period of time, a meshing gap is generated between the worm gear and the worm, which is represented by that the worm 30 moves away from the worm wheel 20 (shown in a direction D in fig. 1), and the distance of the worm gear and the worm increases in the radial direction.
Since the inner race 42 of the adjustment mechanism 40 is disposed on the worm shaft 30, the worm shaft 30 applies a force to the inner race 42 when the worm shaft 30 moves away from the worm wheel 20. Since the inner ring 42 is an open ring, the opening of the inner ring 42 becomes larger, and the elastic element 43 disposed between the inner ring 42 and the outer ring 41 is elastically deformed as the opening becomes larger, and generates a radial pressing force, which causes the opening of the inner ring 42 to become smaller, and causes the inner ring 42 to return. During the resetting process, the inner ring 42 drives the worm 30 to move towards the direction close to the worm wheel 20 (the direction opposite to the direction D in fig. 1), so that the worm wheel and the worm are tightly meshed without generating meshing gaps.
Meanwhile, referring to fig. 3, since the opening of the inner ring 42 becomes large in the process of eliminating the backlash in the adjustment mechanism 40, the inner ring 42 approaches the outer ring 41, and noise is generated if the inner ring 42 collides with the outer ring 41. The present invention is provided with a first protrusion 41a on the inner surface of the outer ring 41, the first protrusion 41a being close to the opening of the inner ring 42, and a second protrusion 42a on the outer surface of the inner ring 42, the second protrusion 42a being opposite to the first protrusion 41a with a gap in the radial direction.
In the process that the opening of the inner ring 42 becomes larger, the second projection 42a approaches the first projection 41a, and the second projection 42a contacts the first projection 41 a; and first arch 41a and second arch 42a are elastic material, and both hardness is lower, can play the effect of buffering and inhaling, has greatly reduced guiding mechanism 40 and has eliminated the produced noise of meshing clearance in-process inner circle 42 and 41 collision of outer lane. The adjusting mechanism 40 of the invention can eliminate the meshing clearance of the worm and the gear, reduce the noise and improve the driving comfort of the driver.
With continued reference to fig. 3, in the present embodiment, the first protrusion 41a extends in the circumferential direction, and a projection of the first protrusion 41a in the radial direction covers the opening of the inner ring 42; meanwhile, the second protrusion 42a extends in the circumferential direction, in the present embodiment, the second protrusion 42a is provided at both sides of the opening of the inner ring 42 in the circumferential direction, and in other embodiments, the second protrusion may be provided at any side of the opening of the inner ring in the circumferential direction.
In this embodiment, the projection of the first protrusion 41a in the radial direction at least partially covers the two second protrusions 42a, and even the projection of the first protrusion 41a in the radial direction may completely cover the two second protrusions 42a (corresponding to the length of the first protrusion 41a extending in the circumferential direction being greater than the sum of the lengths of the two second protrusions 42a extending in the circumferential direction). By adopting the design, the circumferentially extending parts of the second protrusions 42a are in contact with the first protrusions 41a in the process that the second protrusions are close to the first protrusions 41a, so that shock absorption can be maximally realized, and noise can be reduced.
It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the second protrusion 42a starts to extend in the circumferential direction at the opening of the inner ring 42; in other embodiments, the second protrusion 42a may extend circumferentially away from the opening of the inner race 42. Equivalently, no matter how the first projection 41a and the second projection 42a are arranged, as long as: the projection of the first protrusion 41a in the radial direction at least partially covers the two second protrusions 42a, so that the second protrusions 42a can contact with each other in the process of approaching the first protrusion 41a, so as to absorb shock and reduce noise.
With continued reference to fig. 3, the second projection 42a gradually increases in thickness in the radial direction in a direction away from the opening of the inner race 42, as indicated by direction E in fig. 3. Equivalently, the dimension h of the second projection 42a to the first projection 41a in the radial direction gradually decreases. The design makes inner circle 42 have great deformation space at the opening part, is favorable to the opening grow or diminish of inner circle 42, can adjust the gear clearance of worm gear, simultaneously, still makes second arch 42a can contact with first arch 41a to the buffering shakes, the noise reduction.
If the thickness of the second protrusion 42a in the radial direction is equal to the size, the second protrusion 42a is in line contact with the first protrusion 41a after the inner ring 42 is enlarged at the opening; however, in the present invention, after the thickness of the second protrusion 42a in the radial direction is not equal, and the inner ring 42 is enlarged at the opening, the second protrusion 42a is in surface contact with the first protrusion 41 a. Compared with the line contact, the surface contact can reduce the abrasion between the first protrusion 41a and the second protrusion 42a, and on the other hand, the surface contact can increase the contact area between the first protrusion 41a and the second protrusion 42a, which is beneficial to buffering and absorbing shock and reducing noise.
In addition, the design has the following advantages: when the opening of the inner ring 42 begins to become larger, the portion of the second protrusion 42a with a smaller thickness in the radial direction (i.e., the opening of the inner ring 42) will contact the first protrusion 41a first, and at this time, the first protrusion 41a can not only absorb shock by buffering, but also better support the inner ring 42, so that the opening of the inner ring 42 becomes larger or smaller stably, and the meshing gap of the worm gear is better adjusted.
It should be noted that, in the embodiment, the first protrusion 41a and the second protrusion 42a are made of engineering plastics or resin materials, and the hardness of the materials is low, so that the first protrusion 41a and the second protrusion 42a can better buffer and absorb shock, and reduce noise after contacting. Specifically, the first protrusion 41a and the second protrusion 42a may be made of engineering plastics; or, simultaneously, a resin material; or one of the two is engineering plastic, and the other one is resin material.
In the present embodiment, the hardness of the inner ring 42 and the hardness of the outer ring 41 may be the same or different. For example, the inner ring 42 and the outer ring 41 are both made of engineering plastics or resin materials, and the hardness of the inner ring 42 and the hardness of the outer ring 41 are the same, so that noise generated after the inner ring 42 and the outer ring 41 collide can be avoided to a certain extent; the whole worm and gear meshing clearance adjusting mechanism 40 generates lower noise in the process of eliminating the worm and gear meshing clearance, and the driving comfort of a driver is improved. Or, in other embodiments, the hardness of the inner ring and the hardness of the outer ring are different, for example, the outer ring is made of steel, and the inner ring is made of engineering plastics or resin materials, so that noise generated after the inner ring and the outer ring collide can be avoided to a certain extent.
It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the elastic element 43 is a snap spring, and referring to fig. 4, the snap spring is in an open ring shape and matches with the shape of the outer surface of the inner ring 42. Referring to fig. 3, the outer surface of the inner race 42 is provided with at least a first groove 42b and a second groove 42c extending in the circumferential direction, the first groove 42b and the second groove 42c being provided at intervals in the axial direction, and a second projection 42a being located between the first groove 42b and the second groove 42 c; snap springs are respectively arranged in the first groove 42b and the second groove 42 c.
Referring to fig. 5, the adjusting mechanism 40 is an eccentric structure, which corresponds to that the center point F of the inner ring 42 and the center point G of the outer ring 41 do not coincide, that is, the plane B on which the center point F of the inner ring 42 is located does not coincide with the plane C on which the center point G of the outer ring 41 is located, but is disposed at an interval. This enables the first end 31 of the worm 30 to be fitted with the adjusting mechanism 40, and then to generate a pre-pressing force in the meshing direction, thereby automatically eliminating the meshing gap between the worm and the gear.
In this embodiment, the resilient member elements are provided on the outer surface of the inner race 42, and in other embodiments, the resilient members may be provided on the inner surface of the outer race. Further, it should be noted that the specific structure of the elastic element 43 is not limited as long as the elastic element 43 is arranged between the inner ring 42 and the outer ring 41 to generate the radial pressing force.
The invention also provides an automobile which comprises the speed reducing mechanism.
Although the present invention is disclosed above, the present invention is not limited thereto. Various changes and modifications may be effected therein by one skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
