The transmission of the mechanical four-shaft differential device has directionality, and the transmission when the single power source drives is called forward differential transmission, and the transmission when four paths of random motion are input is called reverse coupling transmission.
The invention is used for positive differential transmission or reverse four-axis power coupling, the positive differential transmission can decompose the single-path input motion of the enclosed gear into four-path output motion of a power device with any rotating speed ratio but the sum of the symbol numerical values and the single-path input motion speed numerical value of the enclosed gear have a determined relation, and the four-path output motion of the power device is equally divided by moment; the reverse coupling transmission can couple four paths of random input motions of the power device into a closed gear single-path output motion which has a determined relation with the input motion, and the power synthesis is carried out. The specific working principle is as follows:
when the mechanical four-shaft differential device of the invention is in forward differential transmission, a single power source drives a closed gear 6, the closed gear 6 distributes original power to power devices I, II, III and IV through straight-tooth power gears 1-07, 2-02, 3-02 and 4-02 of the power devices respectively, each corresponding gear except the straight-tooth power gears 1-07, 2-02, 3-02 and 4-02 in the power devices I, II, III and IV generates different rotating speeds related to constraint because the rotating shafts 1-08, 2-03, 3-03 and 4-03 of the power devices I, II, III and IV are subjected to different external constraints, and at the moment, one path to three paths of the power devices I, II, III and IV transmit the power to a transfer case through the meshing of a straight-tooth feedback gear of the corresponding power devices and a straight-tooth sun gear of the transfer case, the power transmitted into the transfer case is coordinated in the transfer case and then transmitted back to the corresponding power device through the meshing of the remaining three, two or one straight tooth power gear of the transfer case and the straight tooth feedback gear of the power device. Finally, in each power unit, part of the power transmitted by theenclosed gear 6 minus the power transmitted to the transfer case V or plus the power fed back by the transfer case is synthesized to the power unit rotating shafts 1-08, 2-03, 3-03 and 4-03, so that the power unit rotating shafts 1-08, 2-03, 3-03 and 4-03 have different rotating speeds and are used as the final output of the mechanical four-shaft differential device. Four output torques are equal during forward differential transmission of the mechanical four-shaft differential device, the amplification factor of the output torque to the input torque can be changed by the gear ratio of a straight-tooth inner gear and a straight-tooth sun gear in the power device, and the amplification factor of the torque is larger when the gear ratio is smaller.
When the mechanical four-shaft differential device of the invention is used for reverse coupling transmission, four paths of random rotating speeds are respectively transmitted into the power devices I, II, III and IV through the rotating shafts 1-08, 2-03, 3-03 and 4-03 of the power devices and input power to the power devices I, II, III and IV, because the power devices I, II, III and IV are subjected to different external constraints, one to three paths of the power devices I, II, III and IV transmit power to the transfer case through the meshing of the straight tooth feedback gear of the power device and the straight tooth sun gear of the transfer case, the power transmitted to the transfer case is coordinated in the transfer case and then transmitted back to the corresponding power device through the meshing of the straight tooth sun gear of the other three paths, two paths or one path of the transfer case and the straight tooth feedback gear of the power device, the process enables the straight tooth feedback gears 1-06B, 2-01, 3-01 and 4-01 of the power device to have different rotating speeds. Finally, under the coordination of the transfer case and the meshing constraint of theclosed gear 6, four random input rotating speeds of rotating shafts 1-08, 2-03, 3-03 and 4-03 of power devices in the mechanical four-shaft differential device are coupled into one output rotating speed of theclosed gear 6, and the torque synthesis is carried out.
In a mechanical four-axis differential device:
a) the relationship between the rotating speed: let ω denote the rotational speed of the corresponding member and Z denote the number of teeth of the corresponding member, then
b) Moment relation: let eta bePIndicating the efficiency, eta, of the power plantDThe efficiency of the transmission route of the gear 5-01B → 5-03/5-04 → 5-02A and the efficiency of the transmission route of 5-05B → 5-07/5-08 → 5-06A in the transfer case are shown at the same time
For moment relations, let η if neglect the effect of efficiencyP=ηDWhen 1, then there are
The parameters q and i in the relationship between the rotating speed and the torque are respectively as follows:
as can be seen from the above equation: 1) the device divides the adaptive relation of the speed; 2) the output torque of each branch of the device is equal, the amplification factor of the torque can be changed by the gear ratio of a straight tooth internal gear and a straight tooth sun gear in the power device, and the amplification factor of the torque is larger when the gear ratio is smaller.
