Mechanical holonomic part of transmission and continuous operation with stepless gear ratio change

The utility model relates to holonomic transmissions with stepless change of gear ratios (with stepless change of torque) and can be used in mechanical engineering, in vehicles, machine tool building, in other objects and systems where automatic or forced smooth change of the output shaft rotation speed depending on from the moment of loading on it at a constant or variable speed of the input shaft.

Known transmission with a friction variator, disclosed in the book Pronin B.A., Revkova G.A. "Stepless V-belt and friction gears, M.," Engineering, 1980, p. 290, Fig. 178.

The disadvantages of the known technical solutions are: high pressure on the shafts and bearings associated with the use of friction forces to transmit a useful moment, the rigidity of the transmission characteristics, low durability and low efficiency due to sliding in the contact zones, restrictions on the transmitted power.

Closest to the technical nature of the proposed design is the "Electromechanical transmission of E. K. Korotkov with a self-regulating continuously variable holonomic variator, containing drive and driven shafts kinematically connected by a torque transformer. The torque transformer is a self-regulating continuously variable holonomic variator of continuous operation made of gear cylindrical wheels and including two single-row differential mechanisms, one of the same links of which are connected to each other by a planetary gear transmission with a given gear ratio, with a carrier

which the drive motor is connected to, the second links of the same name are rigidly interconnected, one of the third links is rigidly connected to the support in the form of a rack, and the other, the third link is connected to the shaft of the generator supplying the electric motor, the shaft of which is connected to the drive shaft of the variator, and one of the first the links mentioned is the driven shaft of the variator (RF Patent No. 2053895 of 02/10/1996).

The known design contains a second differential mechanism, which is associated with the first planetary gear with a certain gear ratio.

The disadvantages of the known design are: the occurrence of additional losses due to the fact that in the direct transmission mode all the links of the mechanism are stopped relative to their axes and each other, i.e. a solid shaft was organized, but the carrier of differential mechanisms, rigidly sitting on one shaft, rolled around on stationary sun wheels and rotated with a frequency slightly lower than the engine and output shaft speeds, which are equal in direct transmission mode.

In addition, the shaft of the means for connecting with external devices for transmitting rotation to the input shaft has a rotation speed significantly exceeding the rotation speed of the input shaft.

The technical problems solved by the proposed mechanical part of the continuous transmission with a stepless change in gear ratios are:

- simplification of the design of the mechanical part of the transmission by eliminating the differential mechanism on the output shaft;

-the ability to continuously change gear ratios both automatically and forcefully, moreover, with the possibility of providing an output shaft rotation frequency greater than the input shaft rotation frequency;

,

- providing a reduced frequency of rotation of the shaft means,

designed to transmit rotation to the input shaft;

-exclusions of such an unpleasant node as a clutch

The technical result in the proposed design is achieved by creating a mechanical holonomic part of a continuous transmission with a stepless change in gear ratios, including an input shaft, with which the differential gear (DM) solar wheel and planetary gear (PM) gear are rigidly and coaxially connected. With the solar wheel, the DM engages the satellites, which in turn engage with the epicycle, on which the gear wheel is rigidly and coaxially mounted for connection with external devices - additional mechanisms (hydraulic pump, electric motor, etc.).

Satellites rotate on the axes of the DM carrier. At the other end of the carrier, the DM, in the hollow shaft of which the input shaft passes, a gear wheel is rigidly and coaxially mounted, with which one of the rims of a paired satellite rigidly mounted on an axis is engaged, at the other end of which a second rim of a paired satellite is also rigidly mounted meshing with a gear rigidly mounted on the end of the input shaft. The axles of the twin satellites are freely mounted in the output shaft. The input and output shafts coaxially and freely rotate relative to each other. The range of gear ratios provided by the mechanical holonomic part of continuous operation with a stepless change in gear ratios ranges from 0.75 to infinity. Depending on the ratio of the selected gears included in the device, the number 0.75 may vary.

The proposed device is compact and has no restrictions on the transmitted power.

The essence of the proposed mechanical holonomic part of the continuous transmission with stepless change of gear ratios is illustrated by the following construction description and drawings, where:

in FIG. 1 shows a kinematic diagram of the proposed mechanical holonomic part of the transmission with a stepless change in torque;

figure 2 shows a block diagram of a transmission with a stepless change in torque (one of the options, others are possible);

in Fig. 3 there are graphs of the dependences, Pv n „asosa, i transmission depending on the load moment on the output shaft for the variant shown in Fig. 2 (pu - relative units).

The mechanical holonomic part of a continuous transmission with a stepless change in gear ratios includes an input shaft 1 on which the sun wheel 2 of the differential mechanism and the gear wheel 3 of the planetary gear are rigidly and coaxially mounted. With the sun wheel 2, the satellites 4 are engaged, which in turn are meshed with the epicycle 5, on which the gear wheel 6 is rigidly and coaxially mounted for connection with external devices - additional mechanisms (hydraulic pump, electric motor, etc.). Satellites 4 rotate on the axes of carrier 7 of the differential mechanism. A gear wheel 8 is rigidly and coaxially mounted on the other end of the drive shaft 7 and is engaged with the crown 9 of the twin satellite rigidly mounted on the axis 10. At the other end of the axis 10, the second crown 11 of the twin satellite is also rigidly mounted, which engages with the wheel 3. The axis 10 is freely installed in the output shaft 12.

The operation of the proposed mechanical part of the continuous transmission with a stepless change in gear ratios will be considered using it in a vehicle, the block diagram of which is shown in FIG. 2. 4 The block diagram includes additional mechanisms, for example,

a hydraulic pump 18 connected to the proposed mechanism through gears 17 and 6, an internal combustion engine 13, a hydraulic motor 16 connected through gears 15 and 14 to the input shaft of the proposed device.

Additional mechanisms in the proposed flowchart are well known and the author does not claim to be new.

The internal combustion engine 13 operates at a constant, optimal in terms of fuel consumption, power output and minimum emission of harmful exhaust gases, speed.

The constancy of the engine speed for the performance of the system is not necessary.

The required power of the hydraulic pump 18 and the hydraulic motor 16 in the region of large gear ratios (from 3 to co) should be from 50 to 100% of the engine power. In the range of average gear ratios (from 2 to 3) from 25 to 50%, and for small gear ratios (from 0.75 to 2) from O to 25%.

Given that the vehicle during acceleration in the region of large gear ratios is located very briefly (1-2 sec), as well as the overload short-term capability of hydraulic machines, their required power should be selected 40-70% of the engine power (determined experimentally for each vehicle). In the proposed mechanical holonomic part of a continuous transmission with stepless variation of continuous numbers, the gear ratios in the differential mechanism and planetary gear are interconnected in a strictly defined way.

At the beginning of the operation of the mechanical holonomic part of a continuous transmission with a stepless change in gear ratios, rotation from the input shaft 1 is transmitted through the DM sun wheel 2 to the satellites 4 and the epicycle 5, to carrier 7, which is rigidly fixed through

on its other end of the shaft, the gear wheel 8 transmits rotation to the crown gear 9 of the twin satellite. The other crown 11 of the twin satellite is engaged with a gear wheel 3 rigidly sitting on the input shaft. The paired satellites 9 and 11 are rigidly and coaxially mounted on the axis 10, which rotates freely in the output shaft 12. Thus, the rotation is transmitted to the output shaft 12 in two streams: on the one hand, through the DM to the crown of the paired satellite 9, and on the other, with the input shaft, through the wheel 3, the crown of the twin satellite 11.

After starting the engine 13, the output shaft is stopped and until a counteracting moment appears on the shaft intended for connection through the wheel 17 with the hydraulic pump 18, the entire gear rotates at idle. The inclined washer of the reversible hydraulic pump 18 is set to O. Therefore, the use of clutch is not required. The torque on the output shaft 12 is also equal to zero. If, using the appropriate calculation, tilt the washer of the hydraulic pump 18 to a position corresponding to the forward movement, pressure will appear in the hydraulic system, and the moment created by the hydraulic pump 18, repeatedly amplified, will create an infinite moment on the output shaft, since the speed of the hydraulic pump shaft in several times higher than the rotational speed of the drive motor (in this particular design 4 times). By since such an opposing moment cannot be created, then the movement of the vehicle will begin much earlier, somewhere at i 84-10. At the same time, the energy created by the hydraulic pump 18 enters the hydraulic motor 16, which returns it to the input shaft. Thus, all the power developed by the engine 13 in any mode of its operation is supplied to the output shaft 12 (with the exception of losses).

In the process of acceleration of the vehicle, and it happens automatically, because as the inertial forces of the vehicle decrease, the moment on the output shaft 12 decreases, its rotation frequency automatically increases, and the rotation frequency of the shaft, on which

the epicycle 5 and gear 6 are fixed, (see Fig. 3 the function / (Mn)} decreases correspondingly, the fraction of power transmitted through the hydrochannel, and when the rotation frequencies of the input and output shafts are equalized, the entire mechanical system turns into a solid shaft; none of the links do not rotate either relative to the axes or relative to each other, and a small part of the power (see the graph in FIG. 3) is transmitted by hydraulics. If now the inclined washer of the hydraulic motor 16 is turned to the “O” position, the hydraulic pump stops, stopping the epicycle 5, and this is It means that the rotation speed of the output shaft increases by 25% compared with the rotation speed of the input shaft, and accordingly, the engine torque must be reduced (see Fig. 3, points A and B.) Thus, all the engine power is transmitted through the mechanical part devices.

If the control lever of the hydraulic machines on the move of the vehicle is turned in the opposite direction to the original one, then the hydraulic motor turns into a hydraulic pump, and the hydraulic pump 18 turns into a hydraulic motor, the epicycle spins up, accordingly, all the links of the mechanism come into motion and the output shaft 12 starts to stop. There is a braking mode due to engine power, which is important in mountainous areas when driving along serpentines.

The main brake system is in hot standby, which increases the reliability of the vehicle. In the parking position, the reverse speed mode is also organized due to the reversibility of the adjustable hydraulic machines. So, hydraulic machines work in four cases: 1. - acceleration; 2. - braking; 3.- organization of reverse speed; 4 when driving uphill.

Point A in FIG. 3 corresponds to

Point B in FIG. 3 corresponds to i 0.75.

braking, reversing, climbing a mountain. In addition, the energy recovery mode is easily used in this system.

In the parking position, after starting the engine and warming it up, the engine is brought to optimum speed, while the frequency of rotation of the epicycle 5 will be 4, which stores significant kinetic energy, to which the kinetic energy of all parts of the mechanism will be added. At the same time, the washer of the controlled, reversible hydraulic pump is tilted and the vehicle, as it were, “double thrust - full engine power plus the stored kinetic energy of the entire mechanism — accelerates the vehicle, which leads to a significant reduction in acceleration time. When driving, if a stop is required, then part of the braking energy is used to replenish the kinetic energy with all the links of the mechanism, so that during the next acceleration it will be given back. Thus, the energy recovery mode occurs. 8
