Such spatially relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures is turned over, elements described as "below" or "beneath" other elements or features would then be oriented "above" or "over" the other elements or features. Thus, the example term "below … …" can include both an orientation of above and below. The device may be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations) and the spatially relative descriptors used herein interpreted accordingly.
As shown in fig. 1, the present invention provides a mechanical motion rectifier based on a planetary gear train, comprising:
a housing 4, wherein a cavity is arranged in the housing 4;
the input shaft 21 and the output shaft 22 are coaxially arranged, the input shaft 21 is used for connecting an external power input, and the output shaft 22 is used for connecting an external driven part;
the planetary gear train 3 is arranged in the cavity, the planetary gear train 3 comprises a ring gear carrier 31, a planetary gear 34, a planetary gear shaft, a planetary gear carrier 33 and a central gear 35, the ring gear carrier 31 is provided with an inner gear ring 32, the planetary gear 34 is rotatably arranged on the planetary gear carrier 33 through the planetary gear shaft, the central gear 35 is meshed with the planetary gear 34, the ring gear carrier 31 is arranged on the periphery of the planetary gear 34 and meshed with the planetary gear 34, and the central gear 35 is sleeved on the output shaft 22;
the one-way bearing assembly 1 is arranged in the cavity and comprises a first large one-way bearing 111, a second large one-way bearing 112, a first small one-way bearing 121 and a second small one-way bearing 122, wherein the outer ring of the first large one-way bearing 111 is rigidly connected with the shell 4, the inner ring of the first large one-way bearing 111 is rigidly connected with the gear ring frame 31, the outer ring of the second large one-way bearing 112 is rigidly connected with the shell 4, the inner ring of the second large one-way bearing 112 is rigidly connected with the planet gear frame 33, the outer ring of the first small one-way bearing 121 is rigidly connected with the gear ring frame 31, and the inner ring of the first small one-way bearing 121 is rigidly connected with the input shaft 21; the outer race of the second small one-way bearing 122 is rigidly connected to the carrier 33, and the inner race of the second small one-way bearing 122 is rigidly connected to the input shaft 21.
Taking the example of setting the output shaft 22 to maintain the clockwise rotation output in a single direction, the conducting direction of the first small one-way bearing 121 and the second large one-way bearing 112 can be set to be clockwise conducting, the conducting direction refers to the direction in which the one-way bearings can rotate freely, the corresponding direction opposite to the conducting direction is the locking direction of the one-way bearings, that is, the inner ring can rotate freely when rotating clockwise and is locked when rotating counterclockwise, and correspondingly, the conducting direction of the second small one-way bearing 122 and the first large one-way bearing 111 is counterclockwise conducting, that is, the inner ring can be conducted when rotating counterclockwise and is locked when rotating clockwise.
At this time, as shown in fig. 2 and fig. 3, the dark color filling in the drawing indicates a dead-locked one-way bearing, the light color filling indicates a turned-on one-way bearing, if the external input drive input shaft 21 rotates clockwise (the first operating condition), the first small one-way bearing 121 is turned on, the second small one-way bearing 122 is locked, the planet carrier 33 is driven to rotate clockwise, the first large one-way bearing 111 is locked, the second large one-way bearing 112 is turned on, and the planet gear 34 is driven to rotate counterclockwise, so that the sun gear 35 is driven to rotate clockwise.
As shown in fig. 3 and 4, if the external input drives the input shaft 21 to rotate counterclockwise (the second operating condition), the first small one-way bearing 121 is locked, the second small one-way bearing 122 is turned on, the first large one-way bearing 111 is turned on, the input shaft 21 drives the ring gear carrier 31 to rotate counterclockwise, the second large one-way bearing 112 is locked to fix the planet gear carrier 33, and the ring gear carrier 31 drives the planet gear 34 to rotate counterclockwise, so that the planet gear 34 drives the sun gear 35 to rotate clockwise.
The above example is only one, and the directions of the four one-way bearings are switched, so that the output shaft 22 can rotate anticlockwise when the input shaft 21 rotates back and forth.
It should be noted that, the one-way bearing is a one-way needle bearing, which has the advantage of compact structure, and on the premise of providing similar functions, the use of other types of one-way bearings (or called overrunning clutches) or ratchet-pawl mechanisms are all similar in construction and are also included in the protection scope of this patent.
According to the mechanical motion rectifier based on the planetary gear train 3, power is transmitted to the output shaft 22 through the planetary gear train 3 through the input shaft 21, the planetary gear train 3 can improve the transmission ratio of the mechanical motion rectifier, the mechanical motion rectifier is further provided with four one-way bearings, the one-way bearings are matched with the planetary gear train 3 to achieve the single rotation direction of the output shaft 22 through the characteristic that the one-way bearings can only rotate in the single direction, and the problem that the input shaft 21 frequently changes in the rotation direction to cause more energy loss is solved.
