Abstract

It is characterised in that it comprises at least one ring of balls 10 held between a plurality of spacers 11, the said balls being arranged between an inner annulus 12a, 12b mounted on a fixed body 5 of the reduction gear 1 and a drum 6 to which the movement is transmitted by the said reduction gear 1, the internal surface of the said drum 6 having the outer raceway of the said balls. Application in particular to reduction gears provided for actuating drive wheels for caterpillar tracks. <IMAGE>

Description

SPECIFICATION Integrated bearing for reduction elements The present invention relates to an integrated bearing for reduction elements in particular of driving wheels for tracks, pneumatic- or rollertired wheels and the like.
As is known, reduction elements intended to transmit motion from a driving element to the drum whereon the driven wheel is flanged entail the use of a rolling bearing interposed between the fixed hub, rigidly associated with the driving element, and the drum.
Such reduction elements generally have remarkable dimensions, since the driven drum should accomodate the reduction gearing elements, as well as suitable brake elements.
This fact is often in contrast with manufacture requirements.
The aim of the present invention is to solve the above problem by providing a bearing integrated in the reduction element so as to allow a significant reduction of the overall dimensions.
A further object of the invention is to provide a bearing of simple structure, safe and reliable in use, as well as relatively economical.
This aim and this object are achieved, according to the invention, by the present integrated bearing for reduction elements, characterized by at least one ball ring interposed between an inner raceway carried on a fixed body of the reduction element and an outer raceway formed on the inner surface of a drum rotatively connected to said reduction element, said balls being retained between a plurality of spacers interposed therebetween.
The features of the invention will become apparent from the detailed description of a preferred embodiment of the integrated bearing for reduction elements, illustrated only by way of non-limitative example in the accompanying drawing, where: Figure 1 is a longitudinal cross section view of a reduction element mounting the bearing according to the invention: and Figure 2 is a detail view of a ball ring portion of this bearing.
With reference to the drawings figures, 1 indicates generally a reduction element integrating the bearing according to the invention.
The reduction element 1 comprises a tubular body 2 accomodating a hydraulic driving element 4, flanged at one end of the tubular body by screw means 3.
The tubular body 2 defines a cylindrical portion 5 which rotatably supports a drum 6 intended for connection with the driven wheel; to this end the drum 6 defines a coupling flange 6a. The drum 6 is provided, on its inner surface, with a teeth formation 7 which is part of an epicyclic train, of a substantially per Se known type, and therefore not illustrated in detail. Of this gear, which is operated by the shaft of the driving element 4 passing through the tubular body 2, Fig. 1 illustrates a satellite wheel 8 which engages with the teeth formation 7 and is rotatably carried by a tubular support 9 frontally attached to the cylinder 5.
Between the cylinder 5 and the drum 6, a rolling bearing is interposed, formed by a double ring of balls 10.
The balls 10 are separated from one another by related spacer elements 11 suitably countershaped thereto (Fig. 2) and are arranged between a pair of inner raceways 12a, 1 2b mounted on the cylinder 5, and the inner surface of the drum.
The raceways 12, 1 2b and the inner surface of the drum define ball races which are symmetrically oblique with respect to the rotation axis of the reduction element, so as to aliow bearing of the radial and axial loads transmitted by the wheel of the fixed structure. The two ball rings are moreover separated by an annular spacer 13 mounted on the drum 6.
The drum 6 is frontally closed by a cover 14, while at the opposite end a crown 15 is provided, rigidly connected to the body 2 and defining an annular lip 15a forming a sort of labyrinth seal with respect to the drum edge.
The hermetic seal of the inner chamber of the drum is achieved by means of a pair of rings 16a, 16b peripherally provided with respective annular gaskets 17 thereby respectively forming a seal on the inner surfaces of crown 15 and drum 6.
It should be noted that both the cross section of the rings 16a, 16b and the respective resting surfaces are provided with countershaped tapers, so as to give rise to a locking axial thrust which ensures the seal.
Thus, the described bearing, besides being cheap to be manufactured, has a low outer to inner diameter ratio, particularly by virtue of the fact that the ball rings have their outer races provided directly in the drum body. This allows, for example, to accommodate the driving motor as well as suitable braking elements inside the reduction element, with little bulk.
In the practical embodiment of the invention, the materials employed, the shape and the dimensions may be any according to the requirements.
