In the decoupling or coupling device provided in the embodiment of the present application, the shaft sleeve 102 is sleeved outside the output shaft 101, optionally, the shaft sleeve 102 is coaxially disposed with the output shaft 101, the output shaft 101 can perform rotational movement and translational movement along the axial direction in the shaft sleeve 102, and no torque transmission occurs between the output shaft 101 and the shaft sleeve 102. The torque transmission can be performed between the shaft sleeve 102 and the sliding sleeve 103, when the shaft sleeve 102 rotates, the sliding sleeve 103 is driven to synchronously rotate, and similarly, when the sliding sleeve 103 rotates, the shaft sleeve 102 is driven to synchronously rotate; torque transmission can be performed between the transmission sleeve 104 and the output shaft 101, when the transmission sleeve 104 rotates, the output shaft 101 is driven to synchronously rotate, and similarly, when the output shaft 101 rotates, the transmission sleeve 104 is driven to synchronously rotate. In the application of the decoupling or coupling device provided by the embodiment of the application, the coupling and the decoupling are realized by means of the first engagement structure arranged on the end face of the sliding sleeve 103 and the second engagement structure arranged on the end face of the transmission sleeve 104, specifically, under the condition that the first engagement structure is in butt joint with the second engagement structure, the sliding sleeve 103 can drive the transmission sleeve 104 to synchronously rotate; when the first engagement structure and the second engagement structure are separated from each other, the sliding sleeve 103 does not drive the transmission sleeve 104 to rotate. Therefore, when the sliding sleeve 103 moves to the second position along the axial direction under the action of the first driving mechanism, the first engagement structure is in butt joint with the second engagement structure, at the moment, the device is in a coupling state, torque is input through the shaft sleeve 102, the shaft sleeve 102 rotates to drive the sliding sleeve 103 to synchronously rotate, the sliding sleeve 103 drives the transmission sleeve 104 to synchronously rotate, and the transmission sleeve 104 drives the output shaft 101 to synchronously rotate, so that the torque is transmitted from the shaft sleeve 102 to the output shaft 101 step by step; in practical application, the shaft sleeve 102 is connected with a steering wheel of a vehicle, the output shaft 101 is connected with a steering gear of the vehicle and then connected with wheels, so that in the coupling state, torque can be transmitted from the steering wheel to the wheels, and the steering function of normal driving of the vehicle is completed. When the sliding sleeve 103 moves to the first position along the axial direction under the action of the first driving mechanism, the first engagement structure and the second engagement structure are separated from each other, and the device is in a decoupling state at the moment. In summary, the decoupling or coupling device in the embodiment of the present application is easy to operate, and can conveniently implement coupling and decoupling of the sliding sleeve 103 and the transmission sleeve 104, so as to implement coupling and decoupling of the steering wheel and the wheels, and an operator can flexibly select operations according to different application scenarios, thereby improving the use experience of the operator.

In one embodiment, the sliding sleeve 103 has a first internal spline, and the sleeve 102 has a first external spline, and the first internal spline is in matching connection with the first external spline.
In this specific example, the sliding sleeve 103 and the shaft sleeve 102 are matched with each other through the first internal spline and the first external spline to perform torque transmission, so that the torque transmission is reliable and stable, and the processing and the forming are easier.
In one embodiment, the drive sleeve 104 has a second internal spline and the output shaft 101 has a second external spline that matingly connects with the second external spline.
In this specific example, the transmission sleeve 104 and the output shaft 101 are matched with each other through the second internal spline and the second external spline to perform torque transmission, so that the torque transmission is reliable and stable, and the processing and the forming are easier.
Referring to fig. 3-4, in one embodiment, the apparatus further comprises a first drive wheel 111 and a second drive mechanism; the second driving mechanism is connected with the first driving wheel 111 and can drive the first driving wheel 111 to rotate; the first driving wheel 111 is sleeved outside the shaft sleeve 102, and the shaft sleeve 102 can rotate relative to the first driving wheel 111; the first driving wheel 111 and the sliding sleeve 103 are oppositely arranged along the axial direction of the output shaft 101, and the first driving wheel 111 is positioned in the direction of the sliding sleeve 103 away from the driving sleeve 104; the end surface of the sliding sleeve 103 facing the first driving wheel 111 is provided with a third engagement structure, and the end surface of the first driving wheel 111 facing the sliding sleeve 103 is provided with a fourth engagement structure matched with the third engagement structure; in the case that the third engagement structure is in butt joint with the fourth engagement structure, the first driving wheel 111 may drive the sliding sleeve 103 to rotate; with the sliding sleeve 103 in the first position, the third engagement structure interfaces with a fourth engagement structure; with the sliding sleeve 103 in the second position, the third and fourth engagement structures are separated from each other.
In this embodiment, the first driving wheel 111 is sleeved outside the shaft sleeve 102 through the third bearing 120 and the bearing retainer, and the first driving wheel 111 and the shaft sleeve 102 can rotate independently, that is, no torque transmission occurs between the first driving wheel 111 and the shaft sleeve 102, and when the first driving wheel 111 rotates, the shaft sleeve 102 is not driven to rotate synchronously. In this embodiment, the end surface of the sliding sleeve 103 facing the first driving wheel 111 is provided with a third engagement structure, the end surface of the first driving wheel 111 facing the sliding sleeve 103 is provided with a fourth engagement structure matched with the third engagement structure, the first driving wheel 111 can drive the sliding sleeve 103 to rotate under the condition that the third engagement structure is in butt joint with the fourth engagement structure, and when the third engagement structure is separated from the fourth engagement structure, the first driving wheel 111 cannot drive the sliding sleeve 103 to rotate. Therefore, in a specific application, when the sliding sleeve 103 moves axially to the first position under the action of the first driving mechanism, the third engaging structure is in butt joint with the fourth engaging structure, when the second driving mechanism drives the first driving wheel 111 to rotate, the first driving wheel 111 drives the sliding sleeve 103 to rotate, the sliding sleeve 103 further drives the shaft sleeve 102 to synchronously rotate, and because the shaft sleeve 102 is connected with the steering wheel of the vehicle, the moment of the second driving mechanism is fed back to the steering wheel, and because in the first position, the steering wheel and the wheels are in a decoupling state, an operator can use the steering wheel to perform simulated driving or play entertainment, so that under the condition that the moment of the second driving mechanism is fed back to the steering wheel, the damping force for operating the steering wheel can be provided, and the handfeel reality for playing the game operation by using the steering wheel is improved, thereby improving the use experience of the operator. When the sliding sleeve 103 moves to the second position along the axial direction under the action of the first driving mechanism, the third engaging structure and the fourth engaging structure are separated from each other, and when the second driving mechanism drives the first driving wheel 111 to rotate, the first driving wheel 111 does not drive the sliding sleeve 103 to rotate, and therefore the shaft sleeve 102 is not driven to rotate.
More specifically, the third engaging structure may be a first tapered tooth circumferentially disposed on an end surface of the sliding sleeve 103, and the second engaging structure may be a second tapered tooth circumferentially disposed on an end surface of the first driving wheel 111, where the first tapered tooth and the second tapered tooth are matched in shape and size, and the first tapered tooth and the second tapered tooth are mutually engaged to realize coupling between the sliding sleeve 103 and the first driving wheel 111.

Specifically, a plurality of, for example, three mounting holes are provided on the fixing bracket 115, and the center of a circle formed by the three mounting holes does not overlap with the axis of the motor shaft of the second motor 113, that is, the center of a circle formed by the mounting holes is eccentric with respect to the motor shaft of the second motor 113, so that when the second motor 113 is fastened, the wheelbase between the motor shaft of the second motor 113 and the output shaft 101 can be adjusted by rotating the second motor 113, thereby realizing the tension adjustment of the belt 114.
