Definitions
- the present invention relates to a belt-type gear transmission that transmits the rotational power of a driving shaft to a driven shaft, and more specifically, to a belt-type gear transmission that has a plurality of planetary gears arranged at equal intervals at the same distance from the center of the shaft on the driving shaft and the driven shaft, and has a variable rotation radius.
- a transmission is a device that changes and transmits the speed or rotational power of an engine or motor, and is generally divided into gear type and friction type.
- a gear-type transmission is a continuously variable transmission that transmits power by changing the gear ratio at a certain level, but has the disadvantage of having a limited number of gears and complex gear control.
- friction transmissions can be implemented as belt-type or toroidal types, and although both of these have the advantage of being continuously variable transmissions with continuously changing gear ratios, they have the disadvantage of significantly increasing frictional loss due to excessive pressure applied to the friction surface to prevent slipping, and making it difficult to transmit large driving forces.
- a belt-type gear transmission was developed that can transmit large driving force while having the advantages of a continuously variable transmission by installing multiple planetary gears on the drive shaft and the driven shaft respectively so that the rotation radius of the planetary gears can be changed, and the gears of the planetary gears and the gears of the belt mesh to transmit rotational force.

Abstract
Description
본 발명은 구동축의 회전력을 종동축에 전달하는 벨트형 기어 변속기에 관한 것으로, 보다 상세하게는 구동축과 종동축에는 축의 중심과 동일한 거리에서 등 간격으로 배치되는 다수의 유성기어를 구비하여 회전반경이 변동하는 벨트형 기어 변속기에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a belt-type gear transmission that transmits the rotational power of a driving shaft to a driven shaft, and more specifically, to a belt-type gear transmission that has a plurality of planetary gears arranged at equal intervals at the same distance from the center of the shaft on the driving shaft and the driven shaft, and has a variable rotation radius.
변속기는 엔진이나 모터의 속력이나 회전력을 바꾸어 전달하는 장치로서, 일반적으로 기어식과 마찰식으로 구분된다.A transmission is a device that changes and transmits the speed or rotational power of an engine or motor, and is generally divided into gear type and friction type.
기어식 변속기는 동력을 일정한 단계의 변속비로 변경하여 전달하는 유단변속기로서, 변속단수가 제한적이고 변속제어가 복잡하다는 단점을 갖는다.A gear-type transmission is a continuously variable transmission that transmits power by changing the gear ratio at a certain level, but has the disadvantage of having a limited number of gears and complex gear control.
이에 비하여, 마찰식 변속기는 벨트형이나 토로이달형으로 구현될 수 있는데, 이들 모두 변속비가 연속적으로 변화하는 무단변속기라는 장점이 있지만 미끄럼 방지를 위해 마찰면에 부가되는 과도한 압력으로 인하여 마찰력 손실이 크게 증가하고 큰 구동력은 전달하기 어려운 단점이 있다. In comparison, friction transmissions can be implemented as belt-type or toroidal types, and although both of these have the advantage of being continuously variable transmissions with continuously changing gear ratios, they have the disadvantage of significantly increasing frictional loss due to excessive pressure applied to the friction surface to prevent slipping, and making it difficult to transmit large driving forces.
이에 구동축과 종속축에 각각 다수의 유성기어를 설치하여 유성기어의 회전반경이 변동하도록 하고, 유성기어의 기어와 벨트의 기어가 치합하여 회전력을 전달함으로써 무단변속기의 잇점을 가지면서도 큰 구동력을 전달할 수 있는 벨트형 기어 변속기가 등장하였다.Accordingly, a belt-type gear transmission was developed that can transmit large driving force while having the advantages of a continuously variable transmission by installing multiple planetary gears on the drive shaft and the driven shaft respectively so that the rotation radius of the planetary gears can be changed, and the gears of the planetary gears and the gears of the belt mesh to transmit rotational force.
하지만, 종래의 벨트형 기어 변속기는 변속에 따른 유성기어의 위치 제어가 어려움 문제, 변속 과정에서 유성기어의 회전반경이 연속적으로 변경됨에 따라 유성기어의 기어와 벨트의 기어가 기어산과 기어골에서 정확히 맞물려 치합하기 어려운 문제, 유성기어의 회전반경이 변경됨에 따라 구동축의 유성기어와 종동축의 유성기어를 연결하는 벨트의 길이가 달라지는 문제, 구동축과 종동축에서 유성기어의 회전반경이 차이가 생김으로 인하여 편심 현상이 발생하는 문제 등과 같은 다양한 문제들이 해결되지 않은 상태이므로 아직 제대로 상용화에 이르지 못하고 있다. However, conventional belt-type gear transmissions have not yet been properly commercialized due to various unresolved problems, such as difficulty in controlling the position of the planetary gears during gear shifting, difficulty in precisely meshing the gears of the planetary gears and the gears of the belt at the gear teeth and gear grooves as the rotational radius of the planetary gears continuously changes during the gear shifting process, problem in that the length of the belt connecting the planetary gears of the drive shaft and the planetary gears of the driven shaft changes as the rotational radius of the planetary gears changes, and problem in that an eccentricity phenomenon occurs due to a difference in the rotational radius of the planetary gears at the drive shaft and the driven shaft.

구동기어 어셈블리(10)에서 제1 및 제2 회전판(13a, 13b)은 각각 원판형으로 대응하는 제1 및 제2 고정판(12a, 12b)의 외측에 설치된다. 회전판(13)의 중심부에는 내주에 나사(13_1)가 형성된 실린더가 일체로 형성되고, 결합키(41_1)에 의해 구동축(1)의 홈(1_1)에 결합된 슬리브(41)의 외주에 나사결합됨으로써 고정판(12)과 마찬가지로 구동축(1)의 회전에 구속된다. In the drive gear assembly (10), the first and second rotary plates (13a, 13b) are installed on the outer side of the corresponding first and second fixed plates (12a, 12b) in the shape of discs, respectively. A cylinder having a screw (13_1) formed on the inner periphery is integrally formed at the center of the rotary plate (13), and is screw-connected to the outer periphery of a sleeve (41) coupled to a groove (1_1) of the drive shaft (1) by a coupling key (41_1), thereby restraining the rotation of the drive shaft (1) like the fixed plate (12).
또한, 슬리브(41)는 결합키(41_1)에 의해 구동축(1)의 홈(1_1)에 결합되어 구동축(1)의 회전에는 구속되지만 축방향으로는 슬라이드 왕복 이동하는데, 슬리브(41)와 나사결합된 회전판(13)은 슬리브(41)의 왕복 운동에 대응하여 고정판(12) 대비 일정한 위치를 유지한 상태에서 시계방향 또는 반시계방향으로 일정범위 내에서 회전하게 된다.In addition, the sleeve (41) is coupled to the groove (1_1) of the drive shaft (1) by the coupling key (41_1) and is constrained to the rotation of the drive shaft (1) but slides back and forth in the axial direction. The rotary plate (13) screw-coupled with the sleeve (41) rotates within a certain range in the clockwise or counterclockwise direction while maintaining a constant position relative to the fixed plate (12) in response to the reciprocating motion of the sleeve (41).
도 5는 회전판(13)에 회전팔(14)이 결합되어 배치된 상태에서 회전반경의 변화에 따른 회전팔의 변화를 도시한 것이다.Figure 5 shows the change in the rotating arm according to the change in the rotation radius in a state where the rotating arm (14) is arranged and coupled to the rotating plate (13).
도 5를 참조하면, 회전팔(14)은 제1 및 제2 회전판(13a, 13b)에 각각 6개 배치되어, 회전팔(14)의 일단부는 제1 및 제2 회전판(13a, 13b)의 주변부에 등 간격으로 힌지결합된다. 회전팔(14)의 타단부가 대응하는 고정판(12)의 대응하는 유성기어가이드슬롯(12_2)에 의해 이동이 구속된 유성기어(11)의 단부(좌측핀(112) 또는 우측핀(113))에 힌지결합된다. 즉, 제1 회전판(13a)에 일단부가 힌지결합된 회전팔(14)의 타단부는 대응하는 유성기어(11)의 우측단부(우측핀(113))와 힌지결합되고, 제2 회전판(13b)에 일단부가 힌지결합된 회전팔(14)의 타단부는 대응하는 유성기어(11)의 좌측단부(좌측핀(112))와 힌지결합된다.Referring to Fig. 5, six rotary arms (14) are arranged on each of the first and second rotary plates (13a, 13b), and one end of the rotary arms (14) is hingedly connected to the periphery of the first and second rotary plates (13a, 13b) at equal intervals. The other end of the rotary arms (14) is hingedly connected to the end (left pin (112) or right pin (113)) of a planetary gear (11) whose movement is constrained by a corresponding planetary gear guide slot (12_2) of a corresponding fixed plate (12). That is, the other end of the rotary arm (14) whose one end is hinged to the first rotary plate (13a) is hinged to the right end (right pin (113)) of the corresponding planetary gear (11), and the other end of the rotary arm (14) whose one end is hinged to the second rotary plate (13b) is hinged to the left end (left pin (112)) of the corresponding planetary gear (11).
도 5를 참조하면, 회전팔(14)의 일단부와 타단부는 회전판(13)의 중심 방향으로 절곡되어 구성됨이 바람직하고, 도 4 및 도 4a에 의하면 회전팔(14)의 일단부(14_1)는 회전판(13)의 외측의 평면상에서 동작하고, 타단부(14_2)는 회전판(13)의 내측의 평면상에서 동작하도록 하는 것이 바람직하다. 따라서 도 4 및 도 4a에 도시된 바와 같이, 회전팔(14)은 2개의 평면상에서 회전될 수 있도록 일단부(14_1)와 타단부(14_2)가 이단 절곡 형성되고, 회전판(13)의 주변부에는 회전팔(14)이 지나갈 수 있도록 회전팔 관통홈(13_2)이 형성되는 것이 바람직하다. Referring to FIG. 5, it is preferable that one end and the other end of the rotary arm (14) are bent toward the center of the rotary plate (13), and according to FIGS. 4 and 4a, it is preferable that one end (14_1) of the rotary arm (14) operates on a plane outside the rotary plate (13), and the other end (14_2) operates on a plane inside the rotary plate (13). Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 4a, the rotary arm (14) is preferably formed with a two-stage bend at one end (14_1) and the other end (14_2) so that it can rotate on two planes, and a rotary arm penetration groove (13_2) is preferably formed on the periphery of the rotary plate (13) so that the rotary arm (14) can pass through.
도 6을 참조하면, 각유지원판(15)은 제2 고정판(12b)의 내측에 설치되는 원판형이고, 법선방향의 법선슬롯(15_1)이 등 간격으로 다수 개 형성된다. 각유지원판(15)은 구동축(1)에 고정 결합되지 않는다. 각유지원판(15)의 법선슬롯(15_1)은 유성기어(11)의 좌측핀(112)의 외주에 구비된 결합돌기(112_1)를 구속하여 유성기어(11)가 구동축(1)에 가까워지거나 멀어지더라도 유성기어(11)의 방향은 법선방향을 기준으로 일정하게 유지되도록 한다.Referring to Fig. 6, each support plate (15) is a circular plate installed on the inner side of the second fixed plate (12b), and has a plurality of normal slots (15_1) formed at equal intervals in the normal direction. Each support plate (15) is not fixedly connected to the drive shaft (1). The normal slots (15_1) of each support plate (15) bind the engaging projections (112_1) provided on the outer periphery of the left pin (112) of the planetary gear (11), so that even if the planetary gear (11) moves closer to or farther away from the drive shaft (1), the direction of the planetary gear (11) is maintained constant with respect to the normal direction.
종동기어 어셈블리(20)는 구동기어 어셈블리(10)와 마찬가지로 유성기어(21)를 사이에 두고 우측에는 제1 고정판(22a)과 제1 회전판(23a), 좌측에는 각유지원판(25), 제2 고정판(22b)과 제2 회전판(23b)이 차례로 설치된다. 종동기어 어셈블리(20)를 구성하는 유성기어(21), 제1 고정판(22a), 제2 고정판(22b), 제1 회전판(23a), 제2 회전판(23b) 및 각유지원판(25)은 각각 구동기어 어셈블리(10)를 구성하는 유성기어(11), 제1 고정판(12a), 제2 고정판(12b), 제1 회전판(13a), 제2 회전판(13b) 및 각유지원판(15)과 실질적으로 동일하다. The driven gear assembly (20), like the driving gear assembly (10), has a first fixed plate (22a) and a first rotating plate (23a) on the right side with a planetary gear (21) in between, and a support plate (25), a second fixed plate (22b), and a second rotating plate (23b) are sequentially installed on the left side. The planetary gear (21), the first fixed plate (22a), the second fixed plate (22b), the first rotating plate (23a), the second rotating plate (23b), and the support plate (25) constituting the driven gear assembly (20) are substantially the same as the planetary gear (11), the first fixed plate (12a), the second fixed plate (12b), the first rotating plate (13a), the second rotating plate (13b), and the support plate (15) constituting the driving gear assembly (10), respectively.

In addition, the spring pressure adjustment guide gear (22a_3) formed in the planetary gear guide slot (22a_2) of the first fixed plate (22a) in the driven gear assembly (20) in FIG. 3 is formed in the opposite direction to the spring pressure adjustment guide gear (12a_3) formed in the planetary gear guide slot (12a_2) of the first fixed plate (12a) in the drive gear assembly (10).

유압장치(44)는 피스톤(45)을 구비하여 연동제어대(43, 43b)가 축 방향으로 왕복하도록 제어한다.The hydraulic device (44) is equipped with a piston (45) to control the linkage control unit (43, 43b) to reciprocate in the axial direction.
변속제어기(40, 40b)의 동작 과정은 다음과 같다.The operation process of the gear controller (40, 40b) is as follows.
유압장치(44)는 피스톤(45)에 의해 연동제어대(43, 43b)를 축 방향(즉, 구동축(1)과 종동축(2)에 평행한 방향)으로 이동시킨다. 연동제어대(43, 43b)가 축방향으로 이동하면 연동제어대(43, 43b)의 네 모서리에서 베어링(42)에 의해 구속된 제1 내지 제4 슬리브(41a, 41b, 41c, 41d)가 각각 대응하는 축에 설치된 홈(1_1, 2_1)을 따라 이동하게 된다. 이때, 슬리브(41)와 나사결합된 회전판(13, 23)은 설치된 위치에서 슬리브(41)와 함께 이동하지 못하고, 고정판(12, 22)을 기준으로 상대적으로 회전하게 된다. 유성기어(11, 21, 11b, 21b)의 양단부는 회전팔(14, 24)에 의해 회전판(13, 23)에 힌지결합되어 있으므로, 회전판(13, 23)의 회전은 고정판(12, 22)의 유성기어가이드슬롯(12_2, 22_2)의 의해 이동경로가 구속된 유성기어(11, 21, 11b, 21b)를 축(구동축(1) 또는 종동축(2))의 중심부 또는 주변부로 이동시킴으로써 구동기어 어셈블리(10, 10b)와 종동기어 어셈블리(20, 20b)의 회전반경을 변동시키게 된다.The hydraulic device (44) moves the linkage control member (43, 43b) axially (i.e., in the direction parallel to the driving shaft (1) and the driven shaft (2)) by the piston (45). When the linkage control member (43, 43b) moves axially, the first to fourth sleeves (41a, 41b, 41c, 41d) constrained by bearings (42) at the four corners of the linkage control member (43, 43b) move along the grooves (1_1, 2_1) installed on the corresponding shafts, respectively. At this time, the rotary plate (13, 23) screw-connected with the sleeve (41) cannot move together with the sleeve (41) from the installed position, but rotates relatively with respect to the fixed plate (12, 22). Since both ends of the planetary gears (11, 21, 11b, 21b) are hingedly connected to the rotating plate (13, 23) by the rotating arm (14, 24), the rotation of the rotating plate (13, 23) moves the planetary gears (11, 21, 11b, 21b), whose movement path is restricted by the planetary gear guide slots (12_2, 22_2) of the fixed plate (12, 22), to the center or periphery of the shaft (the driving shaft (1) or the driven shaft (2)), thereby changing the rotation radius of the driving gear assembly (10, 10b) and the driven gear assembly (20, 20b).
도 8a은 본 발명에 의한 벨트형 기어 변속기(제1 실시예)의 구동상태를 비교하여 도시한 것으로, (a)는 회전속도를 감소시킬 때이고, (b)는 회전속도를 증가시킬 때이다.Figure 8a illustrates a comparison of the driving states of a belt-type gear transmission (first embodiment) according to the present invention, where (a) is when the rotation speed is reduced, and (b) is when the rotation speed is increased.
먼저, 도 8a의 (a)에 도시된 바와 같이 회전속도를 감소시킬 때에는, 구동축(1)의 회전판(13a, 13b)이 고정판(12a, 12b)을 기준으로 시계방향으로 회전하면, 회전판(13a, 13b)에 힌지구속된 회전팔(14)에 힌지구속된 유성기어(11)는 고정판(12, 22)의 유성기어가이드슬롯(12_2. 22_2)을 따라 이동하면서, 유성기어(11)의 위치와 구동축(1)과의 거리가 가까워져 회전반경이 줄어든다. First, when reducing the rotational speed as shown in (a) of Fig. 8a, when the rotary plate (13a, 13b) of the driving shaft (1) rotates clockwise with respect to the fixed plate (12a, 12b), the planetary gear (11) hinge-constrained to the rotary arm (14) hinge-constrained to the rotary plate (13a, 13b) moves along the planetary gear guide slot (12_2, 22_2) of the fixed plate (12, 22), and the distance between the position of the planetary gear (11) and the driving shaft (1) becomes closer, thereby reducing the rotational radius.
또한 종동축(2)에 구비된 회전판(23a, 23b)은 고정판(22a, 22b)을 기준으로 반시계방향으로 회전함으로써, 회전판(23a, 23b)에 힌지구속된 회전팔(24)에 힌지구속된 유성기어(21)의 위치와 종동축(2)과의 거리가 멀어져 회전반경이 늘어난다. 이와 같은 상태에서 벨트(30)가 양축(구동축(1)과 종동축(2))의 유성기어(11, 21)를 연결하여 회전력을 전달하므로 회전속도가 감소한다.In addition, the rotary plate (23a, 23b) provided on the driven shaft (2) rotates counterclockwise with respect to the fixed plate (22a, 22b), thereby increasing the distance between the position of the planetary gear (21) hinge-constrained to the rotary arm (24) hinge-constrained to the rotary plate (23a, 23b) and the driven shaft (2), thereby increasing the radius of rotation. In this state, the belt (30) transmits rotational force by connecting the planetary gears (11, 21) of the two shafts (the driving shaft (1) and the driven shaft (2)), thereby decreasing the rotational speed.
한편, 회전속도를 증가시킬 때에는, 구동축(1)의 회전판(13a, 13b)이 고정판(12a, 12b)을 기준으로 반시계방향으로 회전하면, 회전판(13a, 13b)에 힌지구속된 회전팔(14)에 힌지구속된 유성기어(11)는 고정판(12, 22)의 유성기어가이드슬롯(12_2. 22_2)을 따라 이동하면서, 유성기어(11)의 위치와 구동축(1)과의 거리가 멀어져 회전반경은 늘어나게 된다. Meanwhile, when increasing the rotation speed, when the rotary plate (13a, 13b) of the drive shaft (1) rotates counterclockwise with respect to the fixed plate (12a, 12b), the planetary gear (11) hinge-constrained to the rotary arm (14) hinge-constrained to the rotary plate (13a, 13b) moves along the planetary gear guide slot (12_2, 22_2) of the fixed plate (12, 22), and the distance between the position of the planetary gear (11) and the drive shaft (1) increases, so that the rotation radius increases.
또한, 종동축(2)에 구비된 회전판(23a, 23b)은 고정판(22a, 22b)을 기준으로 시계방향으로 회전함으로써, 회전판(23a, 23b)에 힌지구속된 회전팔(24)에 힌지구속된 유성기어(21)의 위치와 종동축(2)과의 거리가 가까워져 회전반경이 줄어든다, 이와 같은 상태에서 벨트(30)가 양축(구동축(1)과 종동축(2))의 유성기어(11, 21)를 연결하여 회전력을 전달하므로 회전속도가 증가한다.In addition, the rotary plate (23a, 23b) provided on the driven shaft (2) rotates clockwise with respect to the fixed plate (22a, 22b), thereby bringing the position of the planetary gear (21) hinge-constrained to the rotary arm (24) hinge-constrained to the rotary plate (23a, 23b) closer to the driven shaft (2), thereby reducing the radius of rotation. In this state, the belt (30) transmits rotational force by connecting the planetary gears (11, 21) of the two shafts (the driving shaft (1) and the driven shaft (2)), thereby increasing the rotational speed.
도 8b는 본 발명에 의한 벨트형 기어 변속기(제2 실시예)의 구동상태를 비교하여 도시한 것으로, (a)는 회전속도를 감소시킬 때이고, (b)는 회전속도를 증가시킬 때이다.Figure 8b illustrates a comparison of the driving states of a belt-type gear transmission (second embodiment) according to the present invention, where (a) is when the rotation speed is reduced, and (b) is when the rotation speed is increased.
도 8b의 동작 내용은 도 8a의 동작 내용과 동일하다.The operation content of Fig. 8b is the same as that of Fig. 8a.
도 9a 내지 도 9b를 참조하면, 본 발명의 제1 실시예에 의한 변속제어기(40)에는 구동기어 어셈블리(10)와 종동기어 어셈블리(20)의 회전반경 차이에 의해 발생되는 편심에 따른 부작용을 줄이기 위해 연동제어대(43) 상의 가압위치를 조정하는 가압위치조정기(46)가 더 포함된다.Referring to FIGS. 9a and 9b, the transmission controller (40) according to the first embodiment of the present invention further includes a pressure position adjuster (46) that adjusts the pressure position on the linkage control unit (43) to reduce side effects due to eccentricity caused by the difference in the rotational radius of the drive gear assembly (10) and the driven gear assembly (20).
가압위치조정기(46)는 가이드기어(46_1), 제어봉(46_2) 및 롤러홈(46_3)을 구비한다.The pressure position adjuster (46) is equipped with a guide gear (46_1), a control rod (46_2), and a roller groove (46_3).
가이드기어(46_1)는 구동축(1)과는 수직인 방향으로 일직선으로 설치된다.The guide gear (46_1) is installed in a straight line in a direction perpendicular to the drive shaft (1).
제어봉(46_2)은 피스톤(45)과 나사결합하여 피스톤(45)의 직선 왕복운동에 대응하여 회전하고, 외주에 구비된 기어가 가이드 기어(46_1)에 치합되어 가이드 기어(46_1) 상에서 구동축(1)과는 수직인 방향으로 이동한다.The control rod (46_2) is screw-connected with the piston (45) and rotates in response to the linear reciprocating motion of the piston (45), and a gear provided on the outer periphery is engaged with the guide gear (46_1) and moves in a direction perpendicular to the drive shaft (1) on the guide gear (46_1).
롤러홈(46_3)은 피스톤(45)에 고정 결합되고, 연동제어대(43)를 축방향으로는 구속하고 축과 수직인 방향으로는 이동가능하게 유지한다.The roller home (46_3) is fixedly connected to the piston (45), and restrains the linkage control unit (43) in the axial direction and maintains it movable in the direction perpendicular to the axis.
따라서, 유압장치(44)의 피스톤(45)이 축방향으로 움직이면, 피스톤(45)에 나사결합된 제어봉(46_2)은 외주에 구비된 기어가 가이드 기어(46_1)에 치합되어 회전하므로 가이드 기어(46_1) 상에서 이동한다. 제어봉(46_2)이 이동함에 따라 유압장치(44) 및 피스톤(45)도 축과 수직인 방향에서 이동하게 된다. 이때, 롤러홈(46_3)은 축과 수직인 방향으로는 피스톤(45)이 자유롭게 이동하게 유지하면서 축방향으로는 연동제어대(43)를 구속하여 연동제어대(43)가 축방향으로 왕복운동할 수 있도록 제어한다.Accordingly, when the piston (45) of the hydraulic device (44) moves in the axial direction, the control rod (46_2) screwed onto the piston (45) rotates on the guide gear (46_1) as the gear provided on the outer periphery engages with the guide gear (46_1). As the control rod (46_2) moves, the hydraulic device (44) and the piston (45) also move in a direction perpendicular to the axis. At this time, the roller groove (46_3) controls the linkage control member (43) to reciprocate in the axial direction while maintaining the piston (45) to move freely in the direction perpendicular to the axis.
도 9c 내지 9b_1을 참조하면, 본 발명의 제2 실시예에 의한 변속제어기(40b)에는 본 발명의 제1 실시예에 의한 변속제어기(40)에 포함된 가압위치조정기(46)와는 다른 구성의 가압위치조정기(46b)를 포함한다.Referring to FIGS. 9c to 9b_1, the transmission controller (40b) according to the second embodiment of the present invention includes a pressure position adjuster (46b) having a different configuration from the pressure position adjuster (46) included in the transmission controller (40) according to the first embodiment of the present invention.
가압위치조정기(46b)는 가이드기어(46b_1), 제어봉(46b_2), 회전기어(46b_3), 회전팔(46b_4), 회전구속핀(46b_7), 연동제어대 구속핀(46b_5)을 구비하고, 연동제어대(43b)에는 구동축과 수직인 방향으로 형성된 가이드 슬롯(43b_3)이 구비된다.The pressure position adjuster (46b) is provided with a guide gear (46b_1), a control rod (46b_2), a rotation gear (46b_3), a rotation arm (46b_4), a rotation restraint pin (46b_7), and a linkage control restraint pin (46b_5), and the linkage control (43b) is provided with a guide slot (43b_3) formed in a direction perpendicular to the driving shaft.
가이드기어(46b_1)는 구동축(1)과는 평행인 방향으로 일직선으로 설치된다.The guide gear (46b_1) is installed in a straight line in a direction parallel to the driving shaft (1).
제어봉(46b_2)의 일단은 유압장치(44)의 피스톤(45)에 고정결합되고 타단은 회전구속핀(46b_7)에 의해 회전기어(46b_3) 및 회전팔(46b_4)과 힌지결합되고, 피스톤(45)을 따라 축방향으로 왕복 이동한다.One end of the control rod (46b_2) is fixedly connected to the piston (45) of the hydraulic device (44), and the other end is hinge-connected to the rotary gear (46b_3) and the rotary arm (46b_4) by a rotary restraint pin (46b_7), and moves axially back and forth along the piston (45).
회전구속핀(46b_7)에는 키(46b_8)가 구비되고, 회전구속핀(46b_7)의 키(46b_8)에는 회전기어(46b_3)와 회전팔(46b_4)의 일단이 함께 구속되어, 회전기어(46b_3)의 회전에 따라 회전팔(46b_4)도 회전구속핀(46b_7)을 축으로 하여 회전하게 된다.A key (46b_8) is provided on the rotation restraint pin (46b_7), and one end of the rotation gear (46b_3) and the rotation arm (46b_4) are restrained together by the key (46b_8) of the rotation restraint pin (46b_7), so that the rotation arm (46b_4) also rotates around the rotation restraint pin (46b_7) as the rotation gear (46b_3) rotates.
회전기어(46b_3)의 기어는 가이드기어(46b_1)의 기어와 치합되고, 제어봉(46b_2)이 왕복 이동함에 따라 회전하게 된다. The gear of the rotary gear (46b_3) meshes with the gear of the guide gear (46b_1) and rotates as the control rod (46b_2) reciprocates.
회전팔(46b_4)의 일단은 회전구속핀(46b_7)에 의해 회전기어(46b_3)에 구속되지만, 타단은 연동제어대 구속핀(46b_5)에 의해 연동제어대(43b)의 가이드 슬롯(43b_3)에 구속되어 축방향의 수직방향으로는 자유롭게 이동하면서 연동제어대(43b)가 축방향으로 왕복 이동하도록 제어한다. One end of the rotary arm (46b_4) is constrained to the rotary gear (46b_3) by the rotary constraining pin (46b_7), but the other end is constrained to the guide slot (43b_3) of the linkage control unit (43b) by the linkage control unit constraining pin (46b_5), so that the linkage control unit (43b) moves freely in the vertical direction of the axial direction while being controlled to reciprocate in the axial direction.
결국, 본 발명에 의한 가압위치조정기(46, 46b)는 유압장치(44)가 구동기어 어셈블리(10, 10b)와 종동기어 어셈블리(20, 20b) 중 회전반경이 상대적으로 큰 쪽으로 이동하여 연동제어대(43, 43b)를 가압하도록 제어함으로써 회전반경 차이에 의해 발생되는 편심에 따른 부작용을 줄일 수 있다.Ultimately, the pressurized position adjuster (46, 46b) according to the present invention can reduce side effects due to eccentricity caused by a difference in the rotational radius by controlling the hydraulic device (44) to move toward the drive gear assembly (10, 10b) and the driven gear assembly (20, 20b) with a relatively larger rotational radius to pressurize the linkage control unit (43, 43b).
도 10a 및 도 10b를 참조하면, 본 발명의 제1 실시예에 의한 변속제어기(40)에는 구동기어 어셈블리(10)와 종동기어 어셈블리(20)의 회전반경 차이에 의해 발생되는 벨트길이 차이를 보정하는 롤러장치(48)를 더 포함한다.Referring to FIGS. 10a and 10b, the transmission controller (40) according to the first embodiment of the present invention further includes a roller device (48) that corrects a belt length difference caused by a difference in the rotational radius of the drive gear assembly (10) and the driven gear assembly (20).
롤러장치(48)는 제1 및 제2 지지대(48_1), 제1 및 제2 롤러팔(48_2), 롤러(48_3), 제1 및 제2 연동제어대팔(43_1)을 구비한다.The roller device (48) has first and second supports (48_1), first and second roller arms (48_2), a roller (48_3), and first and second linkage control arms (43_1).
제1 및 제2 지지대(48_1)는 구동기어 어셈블리(10)와 종동기어 어셈블리(20) 사이에 연결된 벨트(30)의 위와 아래에서 일정한 거리를 두고 설치된다.The first and second supports (48_1) are installed at a certain distance above and below the belt (30) connected between the drive gear assembly (10) and the driven gear assembly (20).
제1 및 제2 롤러팔(48_2)은 각각 제1 및 제2 지지대(48_1)에 힌지결합되고, 일단부에 구비된 경사기어(48_4)에 의해 회전하면서 타단부에 구비된 롤러(48_3)에 의해 벨트(30)를 가압한다.The first and second roller arms (48_2) are hingedly connected to the first and second supports (48_1), respectively, and rotate by an inclined gear (48_4) provided at one end while pressing the belt (30) by a roller (48_3) provided at the other end.
제1 및 제2 연동제어대팔(43_1)은 각각 일단부는 연동제어대(43)에 고정결합되고, 타단부에는 경사기어(43_2)가 구비된다.The first and second linkage control arms (43_1) are each fixedly connected to the linkage control arm (43) at one end and equipped with an inclined gear (43_2) at the other end.
연동제어대(43)가 유압장치(44)의 피스톤(45)에 의해 직선 이동하게 되면, 연동제어대(43)에 고정결합된 제1 및 제2 연동제어대팔(43_1)도 연동제어대(43)와 같이 직선 이동하게 되는데, 이에 따라 제1 및 제2 연동제어대팔(43_1)에 구비된 경사기어(43_2)와 제1 및 제2 롤러팔(48_2)에 구비된 경사기어(48_4)에 의해 제1 및 제2 롤러팔(48_2)은 일정 범위에서 회전하게 된다. 이때, 제1 및 제2 롤러팔(48_2)은 각각 구동기어어셈블리(10)와 종동기어어셈블리(20) 중 회전반경이 작은 쪽으로 회전하여 벨트(30)를 가압하게 되는데, 제1 및 제2 롤러팔(48_2)의 회전반경과 회전범위를 적절히 조절함에 의해 구동기어 어셈블리(10)와 종동기어 어셈블리(20)의 회전반경 차이에 의해 발생되는 벨트길이 차이는 허용범위 이내로 줄어들게 된다.When the linkage control unit (43) is moved linearly by the piston (45) of the hydraulic device (44), the first and second linkage control arms (43_1) fixedly connected to the linkage control unit (43) also move linearly together with the linkage control unit (43). Accordingly, the first and second roller arms (48_2) are rotated within a certain range by the inclined gears (43_2) provided on the first and second linkage control arms (43_1) and the inclined gears (48_4) provided on the first and second roller arms (48_2). At this time, the first and second roller arms (48_2) rotate toward the smaller rotation radius of the driving gear assembly (10) and the driven gear assembly (20), respectively, to pressurize the belt (30). By appropriately adjusting the rotation radius and rotation range of the first and second roller arms (48_2), the belt length difference caused by the difference in the rotation radius of the driving gear assembly (10) and the driven gear assembly (20) is reduced to within the allowable range.
도 10c, 도 10d를 참조하면, 본 발명의 제2 실시예에 의한 변속제어기(40b)에는 구동기어 어셈블리(10b)와 종동기어 어셈블리(20b)의 회전반경 차이에 의해 발생되는 벨트길이의 차이를 보정하는 롤러장치(48b)를 더 포함한다.Referring to FIGS. 10c and 10d, the transmission controller (40b) according to the second embodiment of the present invention further includes a roller device (48b) that corrects a difference in belt length caused by a difference in the rotational radius of the drive gear assembly (10b) and the driven gear assembly (20b).

제1 및 제2 지지대(48b_1)는 구동기어 어셈블리(10b)와 종동기어 어셈블리(20b)사이에 연결된 벨트(30)의 위와 아래에서 일정한 거리를 두고 설치된다.The first and second supports (48b_1) are installed at a certain distance above and below the belt (30) connected between the driving gear assembly (10b) and the driven gear assembly (20b).
제1 및 제2 연동제어대팔(43b_1)은 각각 일단부는 연동제어대(43b)에 고정 결합되고, 타단부에는 경사기어(43b_2)가 구비된다.The first and second linkage control arms (43b_1) are each fixedly connected to the linkage control arm (43b) at one end, and are provided with an inclined gear (43b_2) at the other end.
제1 및 제2 롤러힌지 연장봉(48b_5)은 각각 일단부는 제1 및 제2 연동제어대팔(43b_1)의 경사기어(43b_2)에 치합되는 경사기어(48b_4)를 구비하고, 타단부는 제1 및 제2 롤러팔(48b_2)의 일단부에 고정결합된다.The first and second roller hinge extension bars (48b_5) each have an inclined gear (48b_4) at one end that meshes with the inclined gear (43b_2) of the first and second linkage control arms (43b_1), and the other end is fixedly connected to one end of the first and second roller arms (48b_2).
제1 및 제2 롤러팔(48b_2)은 각각 제1 및 제2 지지대(48b_1)에 힌지결합되고, 일단부에 결합된 제1 및 제2 롤러힌지 연장봉(48b_5)에 의해 회전하면서 타단부에 구비된 롤러(48b_3)에 의해 벨트(30)를 가압한다.The first and second roller arms (48b_2) are hinge-connected to the first and second supports (48b_1), respectively, and rotate by the first and second roller hinge extension rods (48b_5) connected to one end while pressing the belt (30) by the roller (48b_3) provided at the other end.
연동 제어대(43b)가 직선 이동하게 되면, 연동제어대(43b)에 고정결합된 제1, 제2 연동제어대팔(43b_1)도 직선이동하게 되는데, 이에 따라 제1 및 제2 연동제어대팔(43b_1)에 구비된 경사기어(43b_2)와 자체에 구비된 경사기어(48b_4)에 의해 기어결합된 제1 및 제2 롤러힌지 연장봉(48b_5)이 회전한다.When the linkage control unit (43b) moves in a straight line, the first and second linkage control arm arms (43b_1) fixedly connected to the linkage control unit (43b) also move in a straight line, and accordingly, the first and second roller hinge extension rods (48b_5) gear-coupled by the inclined gear (43b_2) provided on the first and second linkage control arm arms (43b_1) and the inclined gear (48b_4) provided therein rotate.
제1 및 제2 롤러힌지 연장봉(48b_5)이 회전함에 따라, 제1 및 제2 롤러힌지 연장봉(48b_5)에 키로 결합된 제1 및 제2 롤러팔(48b_2)은 일정한 범위내에서 회전하게 된다.As the first and second roller hinge extension rods (48b_5) rotate, the first and second roller arms (48b_2) keyed to the first and second roller hinge extension rods (48b_5) rotate within a certain range.
이때, 제1 및 제2 롤러팔(48b_2)은 각각 구동기어 어셈블리(10b)와 종동기어 어셈블리(20b)중 회전반경이 작은 쪽으로 회전하여 벨트(30)를 가압하게 되는데, 제1 및 제2롤러팔(48b_2)의 회전반경과 회전범위를 적절히 조절함에 의해 구동기어 어셈블리(10b)와 종동기어 어셈블리(20b)의 회전반경 차이에 의해 발생되는 벨트(30)의 길이 차이는 허용범위 이내로 줄어들게 된다.At this time, the first and second roller arms (48b_2) rotate toward the one with the smaller rotation radius among the driving gear assembly (10b) and the driven gear assembly (20b), respectively, to pressurize the belt (30). By appropriately adjusting the rotation radius and rotation range of the first and second roller arms (48b_2), the difference in length of the belt (30) caused by the difference in the rotation radius of the driving gear assembly (10b) and the driven gear assembly (20b) is reduced to within the allowable range.

유성기어(11)의 본체(110)는 내슬리브(111)(도 12a의 (a))와, 내슬리브(111)의 좌측에 위치한 좌측핀(112)(도 12a의 (b))과, 내슬리브(111)의 우측에 위치한 우측핀(113)(도 12a의 (c))을 포함한다.The main body (110) of the planetary gear (11) includes an inner sleeve (111) ((a) of FIG. 12a), a left pin (112) ((b) of FIG. 12a) located on the left side of the inner sleeve (111), and a right pin (113) ((c) of FIG. 12a) located on the right side of the inner sleeve (111).
내슬리브(111)는 실린더 형상으로, 내부에 양방향완충기(130)를 수용한다.My sleeve (111) has a cylindrical shape and accommodates a two-way buffer (130) inside.
좌측핀(112)은 제2 회전판(13b)에 힌지결합된 회전팔(14)에 힌지결합되어 제2 회전판(13b)의 회전에 따라 제2 고정판(12b)의 유성기어가이드슬롯(12_2)에 구속되어 이동한다. 이때, 좌측핀(112)에 구비된 결합돌기(112_1)는 회전판(15)의 법선슬롯(15_1)에 의해 구속되어, 좌측핀(112)과 결합된 다른 구성들도 법선슬롯(15_1)에 의해 결정된 법선과 일정한 각도를 유지할 수 있다.The left pin (112) is hinge-coupled to a rotary arm (14) hinge-coupled to a second rotary plate (13b) and moves while being restrained in the planetary gear guide slot (12_2) of the second fixed plate (12b) according to the rotation of the second rotary plate (13b). At this time, the engaging projection (112_1) provided on the left pin (112) is restrained by the normal slot (15_1) of the rotary plate (15), so that other components coupled with the left pin (112) can also maintain a constant angle with the normal line determined by the normal slot (15_1).
이에 비하여 우측핀(113)의 일단부는 제1 회전판(13a)에 힌지결합된 회전팔(14)에 힌지결합된다. 우측핀(113)의 타단부의 외주에는 스프링압력조정용 기어(113_1)가 형성되어, 제1 회전판(13a)이 회전하면 제1 고정판(12a)의 유성기어가이드슬롯(12_2)에 형성된 스프링압력조정용 가이드기어(12_3)에 치합되어 회전하면서 유성기어가이드슬롯(12_2)에 구속되어 이동한다.In contrast, one end of the right pin (113) is hingedly connected to a rotary arm (14) hingedly connected to the first rotary plate (13a). A spring pressure adjustment gear (113_1) is formed on the outer periphery of the other end of the right pin (113), so that when the first rotary plate (13a) rotates, it engages with the spring pressure adjustment guide gear (12_3) formed in the planetary gear guide slot (12_2) of the first fixed plate (12a) and rotates while being restrained by the planetary gear guide slot (12_2).
유성기어(11)의 기어슬리브(120)는 외슬리브(121)(도 12b의 (a))와, 좌고정나사(122)(도 12b의 (b))와, 우고정나사(123)(도 12b의 (c)를 포함한다.The gear sleeve (120) of the planetary gear (11) includes an outer sleeve (121) ((a) of Fig. 12b), a left fixing screw (122) ((b) of Fig. 12b), and a right fixing screw (123) ((c) of Fig. 12b).
외슬리브(121)는 본체(110)의 일부를 감싸는 실린더 형태로, 본체(110)를 기준으로 둘레에서 좌우 이동이 가능하고, 미세한 범위에서 회전가능하게 결합되고, 외주의 적어도 일부에 벨트(30)의 기어와 치합하면서 축방향과는 일정한 각도(θ)의 경사를 유지하는 기어(121_1)가 형성된다. 여기서 θ는 20°~ 40°로, 대략 35°로 유지하는 것이 바람직하다.The outer sleeve (121) is in the form of a cylinder that wraps around a part of the main body (110), and is capable of moving left and right around the periphery of the main body (110), is coupled to be rotatable within a small range, and is formed with a gear (121_1) that maintains an inclination of a constant angle (θ) with respect to the axial direction while meshing with the gear of the belt (30) on at least a part of the outer periphery. Here, θ is 20° to 40°, and is preferably maintained at approximately 35°.
벨트(30)에 구비된 기어와 기어슬리브(120)에 구비된 기어(121_1)에서 기어산은 곡면을 형성하고, 기어산의 곡면 반경은 기어슬리브(120)의 반경보다 2배 이상 크게 함으로써 변속시 기어슬리브(120)의 미세한 회전을 부드럽게 한다.The gears (121_1) provided in the gear sleeve (120) and the gears provided in the belt (30) form a curved surface, and the radius of the curved surface of the gears is made more than twice as large as the radius of the gear sleeve (120), thereby smoothing the microscopic rotation of the gear sleeve (120) during gear shifting.
좌고정나사(122)와 우고정나사(123)는 각각 외슬리브(121)의 내주 양단에서 나사결합을 통해 고정되는데, 이는 내부에 다른 구성를 용이하게 수용하기 위함이다. 좌고정나사(122)와 우고정나사(123)는 기어슬리브(120)의 좌우 이동에 따른 압력을 다른 구성(좌측지지판(132), 회전보조링(161)(도 12f))으로 전달하는 기능을 한다.The left fixing screw (122) and the right fixing screw (123) are each fixed by screw connection at both ends of the inner circumference of the outer sleeve (121), so as to easily accommodate other configurations inside. The left fixing screw (122) and the right fixing screw (123) have the function of transmitting the pressure according to the left and right movement of the gear sleeve (120) to other configurations (left support plate (132), rotation auxiliary ring (161) (Fig. 12f)).
유성기어(11)의 양방향완충기(130)는 주스프링(131)(도 12c의 (a))과, 좌측지지판(132)(도 12c의 (b))과, 우측지지판(133)(도 12c의 (c))을 포함하여 구성되고, 기어슬리브(120)의 좌우 이동을 완충하여 일정 범위 이내로 제한한다.The two-way shock absorber (130) of the planetary gear (11) is configured to include a main spring (131) ((a) of FIG. 12c), a left support plate (132) ((b) of FIG. 12c), and a right support plate (133) ((c) of FIG. 12c), and buffers the left-right movement of the gear sleeve (120) and limits it within a certain range.
좌측지지판(132)은 좌측으로는 좌측핀(112)에 의해 지지되어 더 이상의 이동할 수 없지만, 우측으로는 좌고정나사(122)에 의해 가압되어 내슬리브(111) 내에서 주스프링(131)을 가압하면서 일정 범위(대략 1/2 피치)까지는 이동할 수 있다.The left support plate (132) is supported on the left by the left pin (112) and cannot move any further, but is pressed on the right by the left fixing screw (122) and can move within a certain range (approximately 1/2 pitch) while pressing the main spring (131) within the inner sleeve (111).
우측지지판(133)은 우측으로는 이하에서 설명될 압축봉(141)에 의해 지지되어 더 이상의 이동할 수 없지만, 좌측으로는 압축봉(141)에 의해 가압되어 내슬리브(111) 내에서 주스프링(131)을 가압하면서 일정 범위(대략 1/2 피치)까지는 이동할 수 있다.The right support plate (133) is supported on the right by a compression rod (141) to be described below and cannot move any further, but on the left, it is pressed by the compression rod (141) and can move within a certain range (approximately 1/2 pitch) while pressing the main spring (131) within the inner sleeve (111).
유성기어(11)의 스프링압력조절기(140)는 압축봉(141)(도 12d의 (a))과, 압력조절핀(142)(도 12d의 (b))을 포함하여, 구동축(1)을 기준으로 회전반경이 클 때는 주스프링(131)의 압력을 줄이고, 회전반경이 작은 때는 주스프링(131)의 압력을 늘린다.The spring pressure regulator (140) of the planetary gear (11) includes a compression rod (141) ((a) of FIG. 12d) and a pressure regulating pin (142) ((b) of FIG. 12d), and reduces the pressure of the main spring (131) when the rotation radius is large with respect to the driving shaft (1), and increases the pressure of the main spring (131) when the rotation radius is small.
압축봉(141)은 내주에 나사가 형성된 실린더 형상으로, 압력조절핀(142)의 타단부와 나사결합된다. 압력조절핀(142)이 회전함에 따라 압축봉(141)은 회전하지 않고 길이 방향으로 직선 왕복하여 우측지지판(133)을 지지한다.The compression rod (141) is a cylinder-shaped rod with a screw formed on the inner surface, and is screw-connected to the other end of the pressure regulating pin (142). As the pressure regulating pin (142) rotates, the compression rod (141) does not rotate but reciprocates in a straight line in the longitudinal direction to support the right support plate (133).
압력조절핀(142)의 일단부는 우측핀(113)과 일체로 결합되어 우측핀(113)과 함께 회전한다. 또한, 압력조절핀(142)의 타단부는 외주에 나사가 형성되어 압축봉(141)의 내주와 나사결합된다. 압력조절핀(142)의 일단부와 타단부 사이에는 외주에 조절돌기(142_1)가 형성되어 있는데, 기어슬리브(120)의 좌측방향 이동압력은 우고정나사(123)로부터 회전보조링(161)(도 12f)을 통해 조절돌기(142_1)로 전달되어 압력조절핀(142)을 좌측방향으로 이동시킨다.One end of the pressure regulating pin (142) is integrally connected to the right pin (113) and rotates together with the right pin (113). In addition, the other end of the pressure regulating pin (142) has a screw formed on the outer periphery and is screw-connected with the inner periphery of the compression rod (141). An adjusting projection (142_1) is formed on the outer periphery between one end and the other end of the pressure regulating pin (142), and the leftward movement pressure of the gear sleeve (120) is transmitted from the right fixing screw (123) to the adjusting projection (142_1) through the rotation auxiliary ring (161) (Fig. 12f) to move the pressure regulating pin (142) to the left.
유성기어(11)의 회전유도기(150)는 보조스프링(151)(도 12e의 (c)), 좌측회전가압링(152)(도 12e의 (a)), 좌측지지링(153)(도 12e의 (b)), 우측지지링(154)(도 12e의 (d)) 및 우측회전가압링(155)(도 12e의 (e))를 포함하고, 기어슬리브(120)의 좌우측방향 이동압력에 대응하여 기어슬리브(120)가 미세한 범위에서 회전하도록 유도하고, 기어슬리브(120)의 좌우 이동에 대하여 보조적으로 완충한다.The rotation inducer (150) of the planetary gear (11) includes an auxiliary spring (151) ((c) of FIG. 12e), a left rotation pressure ring (152) ((a) of FIG. 12e), a left support ring (153) ((b) of FIG. 12e), a right support ring (154) ((d) of FIG. 12e), and a right rotation pressure ring (155) ((e) of FIG. 12e), and induces the gear sleeve (120) to rotate in a fine range in response to the left and right movement pressure of the gear sleeve (120), and provides auxiliary buffering for the left and right movement of the gear sleeve (120).
좌측회전가압링(152)은 기어슬리브(120)에 결합되어 동기 회전하고, 기어슬리브(120)로부터 우측방향 이동압력을 받는 일단부와 측면경사홈(152_1)이 형성된 타단부를 구비한다. The left-hand rotation pressure ring (152) is coupled to the gear sleeve (120) and rotates synchronously, and has one end that receives rightward movement pressure from the gear sleeve (120) and the other end that has a side inclined groove (152_1) formed therein.
좌측지지링(153)은 보조스프링(151)의 좌측에 위치하여 압축봉(141)에서 우측으로만 이동가능하게 설치되고, 일단부에 좌측회전가압링(152)의 측면경사홈(152_1)에 대응하는 측면경사키(153_1)가 형성되고 타단부는 보조스프링(151)을 지지한다.The left support ring (153) is located on the left side of the auxiliary spring (151) and is installed so that it can move only to the right from the compression rod (141). At one end, a side slope key (153_1) corresponding to the side slope groove (152_1) of the left rotation pressure ring (152) is formed, and at the other end, the auxiliary spring (151) is supported.
우측회전가압링(155)은 기어슬리브(120)에 결합되어 동기 회전하고, 기어슬리브(120)로부터 좌측방향 이동압력을 받는 일단부와 측면경사홈(155_1)이 형성된 타단부를 구비한다.The right-hand rotation pressure ring (155) is coupled to the gear sleeve (120) and rotates synchronously, and has one end that receives leftward movement pressure from the gear sleeve (120) and the other end that has a side inclined groove (155_1) formed therein.
우측지지링(155)는 보조스프링(151)의 우측에 위치하여 압축봉(141)에서 좌측으로만 이동가능하게 설치되고, 일단부에 우측회전가압링(155)의 측면경사홈(155_1)에 대응하는 측면경사키(154_1)가 형성되고 타단부는 보조스프링(151)을 지지한다.The right support ring (155) is located on the right side of the auxiliary spring (151) and is installed so that it can move only to the left from the compression rod (141). At one end, a side slope key (154_1) corresponding to the side slope groove (155_1) of the right rotation pressure ring (155) is formed, and at the other end, the auxiliary spring (151) is supported.
회전유도기(150)의 좌측회전가압링(152)과 우측회전가압링(154)은 각각 기어슬리브(120)로부터의 이동압력에 대응하여 상호 반대방향으로 미세한 범위에서 회전함으로써 회전 동기된 기어슬리브(120)를 회전시킨다.The left rotation pressure ring (152) and the right rotation pressure ring (154) of the rotation inducer (150) rotate in opposite directions within a minute range in response to the movement pressure from the gear sleeve (120), thereby rotating the gear sleeve (120) that is synchronized with the rotation.
본 발명에 의한 유성기어(11)의 경우, 링 형상으로 일단에 내측키(161_2)와 내측키(161_2)보다 시계방향으로 키홈 경사면의 2/3 가량 어긋나게 형성된 외측키(161_1)를 구비한 회전보조링(161)(도 12f)이 우측회전가압링(154)과 우고정나사(123) 사이에 설치된다. 회전보조링(161)의 외측키(161_1)는 우측회전가압링(154)에 구비된 홈에 결합하고, 내측키(161_2)는 압력조절핀(142)의 조절돌기(142_1)에 구비된 홈에 1/3 가량 걸쳐 결합하는데, 우고정나사(123)에 회전보조링(161)의 타단이 가압되면 내측키(161_2)가 압력조절핀(142)에 키와 결합하여 부분회전하면서 외측키(161_1)가 우측회전가압링(154)을 먼저 가압함으로써 기어슬리브(120)의 회전을 지원한다.In the case of the planetary gear (11) according to the present invention, a rotation auxiliary ring (161) (Fig. 12f) having an inner key (161_2) in a ring shape at one end and an outer key (161_1) formed clockwise with a keyway slope offset by about 2/3 of the inner key (161_2) is installed between the right rotation pressure ring (154) and the right fixing screw (123). The outer key (161_1) of the rotation auxiliary ring (161) is engaged with a groove provided in the right rotation pressure ring (154), and the inner key (161_2) is engaged with a groove provided in the adjustment projection (142_1) of the pressure control pin (142) by about 1/3 of the way. When the other end of the rotation auxiliary ring (161) is pressed against the right fixing screw (123), the inner key (161_2) engages with the key of the pressure control pin (142) and partially rotates, and the outer key (161_1) first presses the right rotation pressure ring (154), thereby supporting the rotation of the gear sleeve (120).
본 발명에 의하면, 유성기어(11)에 구비된 기어(121_1)가 벨트(30)에 구비된 기어(30_1)와 마주칠 때, 변속 과정에서 기어산이 기어골에 치합하는 것이 아니라 기어산과 기어산이 마주치는 경우가 발생한다. 이와 같은 상황은 유성기어(11)와 벨트(30) 모두에 심각한 손상을 유발할 수 있다. 따라서, 본 발명의 바람직한 실시예에서는 유성기어(11)에 구비된 기어(121_1)와 벨트(30)에 구비된 기어(30_1) 모두 축방향과 나란히 형성되는 것이 아니라 축방향에서 일정 각도(20°~ 40°, 바람직하게는 35°)만큼 경사지게 형성함으로써, 유성기어(11)에 구비된 기어(121_1)가 벨트(30)에 구비된 기어로부터 축방향으로 1/2 피치만큼 이동하게 하여 양 기어의 기어산과 기어골이 치합되도록 한다.According to the present invention, when the gear (121_1) provided on the planetary gear (11) encounters the gear (30_1) provided on the belt (30), the gear teeth do not mesh with the gear grooves during the gear shifting process, but the gear teeth encounter each other. This situation can cause serious damage to both the planetary gear (11) and the belt (30). Therefore, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, both the gear (121_1) provided on the planetary gear (11) and the gear (30_1) provided on the belt (30) are not formed parallel to the axial direction, but are formed at an angle (20° to 40°, preferably 35°) in the axial direction, so that the gear (121_1) provided on the planetary gear (11) moves 1/2 pitch in the axial direction from the gear provided on the belt (30) so that the gear teeth and gear grooves of both gears mesh.
이하에서는 본 발명의 의한 유성기어(11)의 양방향완충기(130)의 작동 과정에 대하여 상세히 설명하기로 한다. 양방향완충기(130)는 기어슬리브(120)가 본체(110)을 기준으로 좌우로 이동하여 유성기어(11)에 구비된 기어(121_1)가 벨트(30)에 구비된 기어(30_1)가 치합하도록 한다.Hereinafter, the operation process of the bidirectional shock absorber (130) of the planetary gear (11) according to the present invention will be described in detail. The bidirectional shock absorber (130) moves the gear sleeve (120) left and right with respect to the main body (110) so that the gear (121_1) provided on the planetary gear (11) meshes with the gear (30_1) provided on the belt (30).
벨트(30)에 구비된 기어(30_1)가 유성기어(11)에 구비된 기어(121_1)의 회전진행방향 앞쪽에서 치합하면(도 13의 (a) 참조), 발생되는 축력으로 유성기어(11)는 벨트(30)의 회전진행방향 왼쪽으로 밀리면서 외슬리브(121)에 결합된 우고정나사(123)가 회전보조링(161)을 가압한다(도 13의 (c) 참조). 이에 따라, 회전보조링(161)에 구비된 기어는 부분 치합상태로 있는 압력조절핀(142)의 조절돌기(142_1)에 구비된 기어를 부분 회전시켜 가압하고, 압력조절핀(142)은 나사 결합된 압축봉(141)과 우측지지판(133)에 의해 주스프링(131)을 가압한다. 이때, 주스프링(131)은 제2 고정판(12b)에 지지되는 유성기어(11)의 좌측핀(112)에 지지되는 좌측지지판(131)에 지지된다. 따라서, 유성기어(11)에서 기어슬리브(120)의 좌측방향 이동은 일정범위 이내로 제한된다(도 13의 (d) 참조).When the gear (30_1) provided on the belt (30) meshes with the gear (121_1) provided on the planetary gear (11) in the forward direction of rotation (see (a) of FIG. 13), the planetary gear (11) is pushed to the left in the direction of rotation of the belt (30) by the generated axial force, and the right fixing screw (123) coupled to the outer sleeve (121) presses the rotation auxiliary ring (161) (see (c) of FIG. 13). Accordingly, the gear provided on the rotation auxiliary ring (161) partially rotates and pressurizes the gear provided on the adjusting projection (142_1) of the pressure regulating pin (142) that is in a partially engaged state, and the pressure regulating pin (142) pressurizes the main spring (131) by the screw-coupled compression rod (141) and the right support plate (133). At this time, the main spring (131) is supported on the left support plate (131) which is supported on the left pin (112) of the planetary gear (11) which is supported on the second fixed plate (12b). Therefore, the leftward movement of the gear sleeve (120) in the planetary gear (11) is limited within a certain range (see (d) of FIG. 13).
벨트(30)에 구비된 기어(30_1)가 유성기어(11)에 구비된 기어(121_1)의 회전진행방향 뒷쪽에서 치합하면(도 13a의 (a) 참조), 유성기어(11)는 벨트(30)의 회전진행방향 오른쪽으로 밀리면서 외슬리브(121)에 결합된 좌고정나사(122)가 좌측지지판(132)을 가압하고(도 13a의 (c) 참조), 좌측지지판(132)은 주스프링(131)을 가압한다. 이때, 제1 고정판(12a)에 지지되는 압력조절핀(142)과 나사결합된 압축봉(141)이 우측지지판(133)으로 주스프링(131)을 지지한다. 따라서, 유성기어(11)에서 기어슬리브(120)의 우측방향 이동은 일정범위 이내로 제한된다(도 13a의 (d) 참조).When the gear (30_1) provided on the belt (30) meshes with the gear (121_1) provided on the planetary gear (11) at the rear in the rotational direction (see (a) of FIG. 13a), the planetary gear (11) is pushed to the right in the rotational direction of the belt (30), and the left fixing screw (122) coupled to the outer sleeve (121) presses the left support plate (132) (see (c) of FIG. 13a), and the left support plate (132) presses the main spring (131). At this time, the compression rod (141) screw-connected with the pressure regulating pin (142) supported on the first fixing plate (12a) supports the main spring (131) with the right support plate (133). Therefore, the rightward movement of the gear sleeve (120) in the planetary gear (11) is limited within a certain range (see (d) of Fig. 13a).
이하에서는 본 발명의 의한 유성기어(11)의 회전유도기(150)의 작동 과정에 대하여 상세히 설명하기로 한다. 회전유도기(15)는 유성기어(11)의 기어(121_1)가 벨트(30)에 구비된 기어(30_1)와 치합시 서로 과도하게 어긋나는 특정한 지점에 인접한 구간에서 본체(110)를 기준으로 기어슬리브(120)를 미세한 범위에서 회전시킴으로써 본체(110)을 기준으로 좌우로 이동하는 것이 용이하도록 하는 보조 장치이다.Hereinafter, the operation process of the rotation inducer (150) of the planetary gear (11) according to the present invention will be described in detail. The rotation inducer (15) is an auxiliary device that facilitates movement left and right with respect to the main body (110) by rotating the gear sleeve (120) in a minute range with respect to the main body (110) in a section adjacent to a specific point where the gear (121_1) of the planetary gear (11) is excessively misaligned with the gear (30_1) provided on the belt (30) when meshing with each other.
벨트(30)에 구비된 기어가 유성기어(11)에 구비된 기어(121_1)의 회전진행방향 앞쪽에서 치합시(도 13의 (a) 참조), 우측회전가압링(155)은 외주에 구비된 키가 외슬리브(121)의 내주에 구비된 홈에 구속되어 외슬리브(121)와 동기회전한다. 우고정나사(123)는 회전보조링(161)을 지지하고, 회전보조링(161)에 구비된 외측키(161_1)가 우측회전가압링(155)에 구비된 홈과 결합된다. 또한 우측회전가압링(155)의 일단은 측면경사홈(155_1)이 구비되어 우측지지링(154)의 일단에 구비된 측면경사키(154_1)와 일방향 미끄럼 접촉된다. 따라서, 우측회전가압링(155)이 우측지지링(154)을 대향하는 방향으로 가압하면 상호간에는 미세한 범위에서 회전이 이루어진다. 이때, 우측지지링(154)의 내주에 구비된 키가 압축봉(141)의 외주에 구비된 홈에 구속되어 회전이 억제되고, 압축봉(141)은 내슬리브(111)를 기준으로 회전하지 않는 상태로 결합되므로, 우고정나사(123)의 가압에 의해 우측회전가압링(155)과 동기회전하는 외슬리브(121)는 본체(110)를 기준으로 미세한 회전을 하게 된다(도 13의 (b) 참조). 회전이 억제된 우측지지링(154)은 좌측으로 이동하면서 보조스프링(151)을 가압한다. When the gear provided on the belt (30) meshes with the gear (121_1) provided on the planetary gear (11) in the forward direction of rotation (see (a) of FIG. 13), the right rotation pressure ring (155) rotates synchronously with the outer sleeve (121) by having the keys provided on the outer periphery fixed to the grooves provided on the inner periphery of the outer sleeve (121). The right fixing screw (123) supports the rotation auxiliary ring (161), and the outer key (161_1) provided on the rotation auxiliary ring (161) is engaged with the groove provided on the right rotation pressure ring (155). In addition, one end of the right rotation pressure ring (155) is provided with a side inclined groove (155_1) and is in one-way sliding contact with the side inclined key (154_1) provided on one end of the right support ring (154). Accordingly, when the right rotation pressure ring (155) presses the right support ring (154) in the opposing direction, they rotate each other within a minute range. At this time, the key provided on the inner periphery of the right support ring (154) is restrained from rotating by being fixed to the groove provided on the outer periphery of the compression rod (141), and the compression rod (141) is coupled in a state where it does not rotate with respect to the inner sleeve (111), so that the outer sleeve (121), which rotates synchronously with the right rotation pressure ring (155) by the pressure of the right fixing screw (123), rotates minutely with respect to the main body (110) (see (b) of FIG. 13). The right support ring (154), whose rotation is restrained, pressurizes the auxiliary spring (151) while moving to the left.
한편, 벨트(30)에 구비된 기어가 유성기어(11)에 구비된 기어의 회전진행방향 뒤쪽에서 치합시(도 13a의 (a) 참조), 좌측회전가압링(152)은 외주에 구비된 키가 외슬리브(121)의 내주에 구비된 홈에 구속되어 외슬리브(121)와 동기회전한다. 좌측회전가압링(152)의 일단은 외슬리브(121)에 구비된 홈의 끝에 지지된다. 좌측회전가압링(152)의 일단은 측면경사홈(152_1)이 구비되어 좌측지지링(153)의 일단에 구비된 측면경사키(153_1)와 일방향 미끄럼 접촉된다. 따라서, 좌측회전가압링(152)이 좌측지지링(153)을 대향하는 방향으로 가압하면 상호간에는 미세한 범위에서 회전이 이루어진다.Meanwhile, when the gear provided on the belt (30) meshes with the gear provided on the planetary gear (11) at the rear in the rotational direction (see (a) of FIG. 13a), the left rotation pressure ring (152) rotates synchronously with the outer sleeve (121) by having a key provided on the outer periphery thereof bound to a groove provided on the inner periphery of the outer sleeve (121). One end of the left rotation pressure ring (152) is supported by the end of the groove provided on the outer sleeve (121). One end of the left rotation pressure ring (152) is provided with a side inclined groove (152_1) and comes into one-way sliding contact with a side inclined key (153_1) provided on one end of the left support ring (153). Therefore, when the left rotation pressure ring (152) presses the left support ring (153) in the opposite direction, rotation occurs between them within a minute range.
이때, 좌측지지링(153)의 내주에 구비된 키가 압축봉(141)의 외주에 구비된 홈에 구속되어 회전이 억제된다. 압축봉(141)은 내슬리브(111)를 기준으로 회전하지 않는 상태로 결합되므로, 좌고정나사(122)의 가압에 의해 좌측회전가압링(152)과 동기회전하는 외슬리브(121)는 본체(110)를 기준으로 미세한 회전을 하게 된다(도 13a의 (b) 참조). 회전이 억제된 좌측지지링(153)은 우측으로 이동하면서 보조스프링(151)을 가압한다. At this time, the key provided on the inner periphery of the left support ring (153) is restrained from rotation by being fixed to the groove provided on the outer periphery of the compression rod (141). Since the compression rod (141) is coupled in a state of not rotating with respect to the inner sleeve (111), the outer sleeve (121) which rotates synchronously with the left rotation pressure ring (152) by the pressure of the left fixing screw (122) rotates slightly with respect to the main body (110) (see (b) of FIG. 13a). The left support ring (153) which is restrained from rotating pressurizes the auxiliary spring (151) while moving to the right.
양방향완충기(130)와 회전유도기(150)의 작동 과정을 종합하면, 벨트(30)에 구비된 기어(30_1)가 유성기어(11)에 구비된 기어(121_1)의 회전방향 앞쪽에서 치합하는 경우에는, 도 13의 (b)에 도시된 바와 같이 유성기어(11)의 기어슬리브(120)는 기어(121_1)의 회전방향 뒤쪽으로 기어산에 형성된 곡면부분과 기어경사면의 경계까지 미세 회전하여 기어경사면에 이르도록 이동한 후, 도 13의 (d)에 도시된 바와 같이 유성기어(11)의 기어슬리브(120)가 좌측으로 기어골까지 더 이동함으로써 양 기어가 완전한 상태로 치합하게 된다. In summary, when the operation process of the two-way buffer (130) and the rotation inducer (150) is engaged in the forward direction of the rotation of the gear (121_1) provided on the planetary gear (11), as shown in (b) of FIG. 13, the gear sleeve (120) of the planetary gear (11) rotates slightly to the boundary between the curved portion formed on the gear teeth and the gear slope toward the rear of the rotation direction of the gear (121_1) and moves to reach the gear slope, and then, as shown in (d) of FIG. 13, the gear sleeve (120) of the planetary gear (11) moves further to the left to the gear groove, so that the two gears are completely engaged.
한편, 벨트(30)에 구비된 기어(30_1)가 유성기어(11)에 구비된 기어(121_1)의 회전방향 뒷쪽에서 치합하는 경우에는, 도 13a의 (b)에 도시된 바와 같이 유성기어(11)의 기어슬리브(120)는 기어(121_1)의 회전방향 앞쪽으로 기어산에 형성된 곡면부분과 기어경사면의 경계까지 미세 회전하여 기어경사면에 이르도록 이동한 후, 도 10c의 (d)에 도시된 바와 같이 유성기어(11)의 기어슬리브(120)가 우측으로 기어골까지 더 이동함으로써 양 기어가 완전한 상태로 치합하게 된다.Meanwhile, when the gear (30_1) provided on the belt (30) meshes with the gear (121_1) provided on the planetary gear (11) at the rear in the rotational direction, as shown in (b) of FIG. 13a, the gear sleeve (120) of the planetary gear (11) rotates slightly toward the front in the rotational direction of the gear (121_1) to the boundary between the curved portion formed on the gear teeth and the gear slope, and then moves to reach the gear slope, and as shown in (d) of FIG. 10c, the gear sleeve (120) of the planetary gear (11) moves further to the right to the gear groove, so that the two gears are completely meshed.
이하에서 본 발명의 의한 유성기어(11)의 스프링압력조절기(140)의 작동 과정에 대하여 상세히 설명하기로 한다. Hereinafter, the operation process of the spring pressure regulator (140) of the planetary gear (11) according to the present invention will be described in detail.
양방향완충기(130)에 구비되는 주스프링(131)은 구동축(1)을 기준으로 토크가 적을 때(즉, 회전반경이 클 때)는 스프링 압력을 줄이고(도 14의 (a) 참조), 토크가 클 때(즉, 회전반경이 작을 때)는 스프링 압력을 늘리는 것(도 14의 (b) 참조)이 필요한데, 스프링압력조절기(140)는 유성기어(11)의 위치를 자동으로 파악하여 구동축 회전반경의 크기에 따라 스프링 압력을 자동 조절한다. The main spring (131) provided in the two-way shock absorber (130) needs to reduce the spring pressure (see (a) of FIG. 14) when the torque is low (i.e., the rotation radius is large) with respect to the drive shaft (1) and increase the spring pressure (see (b) of FIG. 14) when the torque is high (i.e., the rotation radius is small). The spring pressure regulator (140) automatically detects the position of the planetary gear (11) and automatically adjusts the spring pressure according to the size of the drive shaft rotation radius.
구동기어 어셈블리(10)에서의 제1 고정판(12a)의 유성기어가이드슬롯(12_2)에는 스프링압력조정용 가이드기어(12_3)가 형성되어 있어, 유성기어(11)의 우측핀(113) 외주에 형성된 스프링압력조정용 기어(113_1)와 치합된다. 따라서, 유성기어(11)가 유성기어가이드슬롯(12_2)을 따라 이동함에 따라 우측핀(113)이 회전하게 된다. 우측핀(113)의 내주에 형성된 홈에 압력조절핀(142)의 일단부에 형성된 키가 결합되어 압력조절핀(142)은 우측핀(113)과 함께 회전한다. 압력조절핀(142)의 타단부 외주에는 나사가 형성되어 압축봉(141)의 내주와 나사결합된다. 따라서, 회전이 제한된 압축봉(141)은 압력조절핀(142)의 회전에 의해 직선 왕복운동을 하면서 우측지지판(133)을 지지하여 주스프링(131)의 압력을 조정한다. 이때, 구동기어 어셈블리(10)의 제1 고정판(12a)에 구비된 스프링압력조정용 가이드기어(12a_3)는 종동기어 어셈블리(20)의 제1 고정판(22a)에 구비된 스프링압력조정용 가이드기어(22a_3)와는 그 방향이 반대로 형성되어 있는데, 이로 인해 구동기어 어셈블리(10)에서의 유성기어(11)와 종동기어 어셈블리(20)에서의 유성기어(21)는 주스프링(131)의 압력을 동일하게 유지할 수 있다. In the planetary gear guide slot (12_2) of the first fixed plate (12a) of the drive gear assembly (10), a spring pressure adjustment guide gear (12_3) is formed, and meshes with a spring pressure adjustment gear (113_1) formed on the outer periphery of the right pin (113) of the planetary gear (11). Therefore, as the planetary gear (11) moves along the planetary gear guide slot (12_2), the right pin (113) rotates. A key formed on one end of the pressure adjustment pin (142) is engaged with a groove formed on the inner periphery of the right pin (113), so that the pressure adjustment pin (142) rotates together with the right pin (113). A screw is formed on the outer periphery of the other end of the pressure adjustment pin (142) and is screw-connected with the inner periphery of the compression rod (141). Accordingly, the compression rod (141) with limited rotation supports the right support plate (133) while making a linear reciprocating motion by the rotation of the pressure adjustment pin (142) to adjust the pressure of the main spring (131). At this time, the spring pressure adjustment guide gear (12a_3) provided on the first fixed plate (12a) of the driving gear assembly (10) is formed in the opposite direction to the spring pressure adjustment guide gear (22a_3) provided on the first fixed plate (22a) of the driven gear assembly (20), so that the planetary gear (11) of the driving gear assembly (10) and the planetary gear (21) of the driven gear assembly (20) can maintain the pressure of the main spring (131) to be the same.
도 11b를 참조하면, 본 발명의 제2 실시예에 의한 유성기어(11b, 21b)는 본체(110b), 기어슬리브(120b), 양방향완충기(130b), 스프링압력조절기(140b) 및 회전유도기(150b)를 포함하여 구성된다.Referring to FIG. 11b, the planetary gear (11b, 21b) according to the second embodiment of the present invention is configured to include a main body (110b), a gear sleeve (120b), a two-way buffer (130b), a spring pressure regulator (140b), and a rotation inducer (150b).
유성기어(11b)의 본체(110b)는 좌측핀(112b)(도 12g의 (a))과 우측핀(113b)(도 12g의 (b))을 포함한다.The main body (110b) of the planetary gear (11b) includes a left pin (112b) ((a) of Fig. 12g) and a right pin (113b) ((b) of Fig. 12g).
좌측핀(112b)은 제2 회전판(13b)에 힌지결합된 회전팔(14)에 힌지결합되어 제2 회전판(13b)의 회전에 따라 제2 고정판(12b)의 유성기어가이드슬롯(12_2)에 구속되어 이동한다. 이때, 좌측핀(112b)에 구비된 결합돌기(112b_1)는 회전판(15)의 법선슬롯(15_1)에 의해 구속되어, 좌측핀(112b)과 결합된 다른 구성들도 법선슬롯(15_1)에 의해 결정된 법선과 일정한 각도를 유지할 수 있다.The left pin (112b) is hingedly connected to a rotary arm (14) hingedly connected to the second rotary plate (13b), and moves while being constrained to the planetary gear guide slot (12_2) of the second fixed plate (12b) according to the rotation of the second rotary plate (13b). At this time, the engaging projection (112b_1) provided on the left pin (112b) is constrained by the normal slot (15_1) of the rotary plate (15), so that other components coupled with the left pin (112b) can also maintain a constant angle with the normal line determined by the normal slot (15_1).
이에 비하여 우측핀(113b)의 일단부는 제1 회전판(13a)에 힌지결합된 회전팔(14)에 힌지결합된다. 우측핀(113b)의 타단부의 외주에는 스프링압력조정용 기어(113_1)가 형성되어, 제1 회전판(13a)이 회전하면 제1 고정판(12a)의 유성기어가이드슬롯(12_2)에 형성된 스프링압력조정용 가이드기어(12_3)에 치합되어 회전하면서 유성기어가이드슬롯(12_2)에 구속되어 이동한다.In contrast, one end of the right pin (113b) is hingedly connected to a rotary arm (14) that is hingedly connected to the first rotary plate (13a). A spring pressure adjustment gear (113_1) is formed on the outer periphery of the other end of the right pin (113b), so that when the first rotary plate (13a) rotates, the gear meshes with the spring pressure adjustment guide gear (12_3) formed in the planetary gear guide slot (12_2) of the first fixed plate (12a) and rotates while being restrained by the planetary gear guide slot (12_2).
유성기어(11b)의 기어슬리브(120b)는 외슬리브(121b)(도 12h의 (a))와, 좌고정나사(122b)(도 12h의 (b))와, 우고정나사(123b)(도 12h의 (c)를 포함한다.The gear sleeve (120b) of the planetary gear (11b) includes an outer sleeve (121b) ((a) of FIG. 12h), a left fixing screw (122b) ((b) of FIG. 12h), and a right fixing screw (123b) ((c) of FIG. 12h).
본 발명의 제2 실시예에 의한 기어슬리브(120b)를 구성하는 외슬리브(121b), 좌고정나사(122b) 및 우고정나사(123b)는 각각 본 발명의 제1 실시예에 의한 기어슬리브(120)를 구성하는 외슬리브(121), 좌고정나사(122) 및 우고정나사(123)와 그 형상 및 기능이 동일하다.The outer sleeve (121b), the left fixing screw (122b), and the right fixing screw (123b) constituting the gear sleeve (120b) according to the second embodiment of the present invention are identical in shape and function to the outer sleeve (121), the left fixing screw (122), and the right fixing screw (123) constituting the gear sleeve (120) according to the first embodiment of the present invention, respectively.
유성기어(11b)의 양방향완충기(130b)는 주스프링(131b)(도 12i의 (a))과, 좌측지지판(132b)(도 12i의 (b))과, 우측지지판(133b)(도 12i의 (c))을 포함하여 구성되고, 기어슬리브(120b)의 좌우 이동을 완충하여 일정 범위 이내로 제한한다.The two-way shock absorber (130b) of the planetary gear (11b) is configured to include a main spring (131b) ((a) of FIG. 12i), a left support plate (132b) ((b) of FIG. 12i), and a right support plate (133b) ((c) of FIG. 12i), and buffers the left-right movement of the gear sleeve (120b) and limits it within a certain range.
본 발명의 제2 실시예에 의한 양방향완충기(130b)를 구성하는 주스프링(131b)은 본 발명의 제1 실시예에 의한 양방향완충기(130)를 구성하는 주스프링(131)이 내슬리브(111)의 내부에 수용되는 것과는 달리 외슬리브(121b) 내부로 연장형성된 좌측핀(112b)를 감싸는 형태(즉, 기어슬리브(120b)를 구성하는 외슬리브(121b)의 내경과 좌측핀(112b)의 외경 사이에 위치하는 형태)의 코일 스프링으로 구현될 수 있다. The main spring (131b) constituting the two-way shock absorber (130b) according to the second embodiment of the present invention can be implemented as a coil spring in a form that surrounds the left pin (112b) extended into the inside of the outer sleeve (121b), unlike the main spring (131) constituting the two-way shock absorber (130) according to the first embodiment of the present invention, which is accommodated inside the inner sleeve (111) (i.e., located between the inner diameter of the outer sleeve (121b) constituting the gear sleeve (120b) and the outer diameter of the left pin (112b).
좌측지지판(132b)은 좌측으로는 좌측핀(112b)에 의해 지지되어 더 이상의 이동할 수 없지만, 우측으로는 좌고정나사(122b)에 의해 가압되어 좌측핀(112b) 외주에 위치한 주스프링(131b)을 가압하면서 일정 범위(대략 1/2 피치)까지는 이동할 수 있다.The left support plate (132b) is supported on the left by the left pin (112b) and cannot move any further, but is pressed on the right by the left fixing screw (122b) and can move within a certain range (approximately 1/2 pitch) while pressing the main spring (131b) located on the outer periphery of the left pin (112b).
우측지지판(133b)은 우측으로는 이하에서 설명될 압축봉(141b)에 의해 지지되어 더 이상의 이동할 수 없지만, 좌측으로는 압축봉(141b)에 의해 가압되어 좌측핀(112b) 외주에 위치한 주스프링(131b)을 가압하면서 일정 범위(대략 1/2 피치)까지는 이동할 수 있다.The right support plate (133b) is supported on the right by a compression rod (141b) to be described below and cannot move any further, but on the left, it is pressed by the compression rod (141b) and can move to a certain range (approximately 1/2 pitch) while pressing the main spring (131b) located on the outer periphery of the left pin (112b).
유성기어(11b)의 스프링압력조절기(140b)는 압축봉(141b)(도 12j의 (a))과 압력조절핀(142b)(도 12j의 (b))을 포함하여, 구동축(1)을 기준으로 회전반경이 클 때는 주스프링(131b)의 압력을 줄이고, 회전반경이 작은 때는 주스프링(131b)의 압력을 늘린다.The spring pressure regulator (140b) of the planetary gear (11b) includes a compression rod (141b) ((a) of FIG. 12j) and a pressure regulating pin (142b) ((b) of FIG. 12j), and reduces the pressure of the main spring (131b) when the rotation radius is large with respect to the driving shaft (1), and increases the pressure of the main spring (131b) when the rotation radius is small.
압축봉(141b)은 내주에 나사가 형성된 실린더 형상으로, 압력조절핀(142b)의 타단부와 나사결합된다. 압력조절핀(142b)이 회전함에 따라 압축봉(141b)은 회전하지 않고 길이 방향으로 직선 왕복하여 우측지지판(133b)을 지지한다.The compression rod (141b) is a cylinder-shaped rod with a screw formed on its inner surface, and is screw-connected to the other end of the pressure regulating pin (142b). As the pressure regulating pin (142b) rotates, the compression rod (141b) does not rotate but reciprocates in a straight line in the longitudinal direction to support the right support plate (133b).
본 발명의 제2 실시예에 의한 유성기어(11b)에서, 양방향완충기(130b)의 우측지지판(133b)과 스프링압력조절기(140b)의 압축봉(141b)은 일체의 형태로 구현될 수 있다.In the planetary gear (11b) according to the second embodiment of the present invention, the right support plate (133b) of the bidirectional buffer (130b) and the compression rod (141b) of the spring pressure regulator (140b) can be implemented in an integrated form.

In addition, the other end of the pressure regulating pin (142b) has a screw formed on the outer periphery and is screw-connected with the inner periphery of the compression rod (141b). An adjusting projection (142b_1) is formed on the outer periphery between one end and the other end of the pressure regulating pin (142b), and the leftward movement pressure of the gear sleeve (120b) is transmitted from the right fixing screw (123b) to the adjusting projection (142b_1) through the rotation auxiliary ring (161b) (Fig. 12l) to move the pressure regulating pin (142b) to the left.
유성기어(11b)의 회전유도기(150b)는 보조스프링(151b)(도 12k의 (c)), 좌측회전가압링(152b)(도 12k의 (a)), 좌측지지링(153b)(도 12k의 (b)), 우측지지링(154b)(도 12k의 (d)) 및 우측회전가압링(155b)(도 12k의 (e))를 포함하고, 기어슬리브(120b)의 좌우측방향 이동압력에 대응하여 기어슬리브(120b)가 미세한 범위에서 회전하도록 유도하고, 기어슬리브(120b)의 좌우 이동에 대하여 보조적으로 완충한다.The rotation inducer (150b) of the planetary gear (11b) includes an auxiliary spring (151b) ((c) of FIG. 12k), a left rotation pressure ring (152b) ((a) of FIG. 12k), a left support ring (153b) ((b) of FIG. 12k), a right support ring (154b) ((d) of FIG. 12k), and a right rotation pressure ring (155b) ((e) of FIG. 12k), and induces the gear sleeve (120b) to rotate in a fine range in response to the left and right movement pressure of the gear sleeve (120b), and provides auxiliary buffering for the left and right movement of the gear sleeve (120b).
좌측회전가압링(152b)은 기어슬리브(120b)에 결합되어 동기 회전하고, 기어슬리브(120b)로부터 우측방향 이동압력을 받는 일단부과 측면홈(152b_1)이 형성된 타단부를 구비한다. The left rotation pressure ring (152b) is coupled to the gear sleeve (120b) and rotates synchronously, and has one end that receives rightward movement pressure from the gear sleeve (120b) and the other end that has a side groove (152b_1) formed therein.

A side key (153b_1) corresponding to the side groove (152b_1) of the left rotation pressure ring (152b) is formed at one end, and the other end supports the auxiliary spring (151b).
우측회전가압링(155b)은 기어슬리브(120b)에 결합되어 동기 회전하고, 기어슬리브(120)로부터 좌측방향 이동압력을 받는 일단부과 측면홈(155/b_1)이 형성된 타단부를 구비한다.The right-hand rotation pressure ring (155b) is coupled to the gear sleeve (120b) and rotates synchronously, and has one end that receives leftward movement pressure from the gear sleeve (120) and the other end formed with a side groove (155/b_1).

이제까지 본 발명에 대하여 그 바람직한 실시예를 중심으로 살펴보았다. 본 발명이 속하는 기술 분야에서 통상의 지식을 가진 자는 본 발명이 본 발명의 본질적인 특성에서 벗어나지 않는 범위에서 변형된 형태로 구현될 수 있음을 이해할 수 있을 것이다. 그러므로 개시된 실시예는 한정적인 관점이 아니라 설명적인 관점에서 고려되어야 한다. 본 발명의 범위는 전술한 설명이 아니라 특허청구범위에 나타나 있으며, 그와 동등한 범위 내에 있는 모든 차이점은 본 발명에 포함된 것으로 해석되어야 할 것이다.The present invention has been described above, focusing on preferred embodiments thereof. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the present invention can be implemented in modified forms without departing from its essential characteristics. Therefore, the disclosed embodiments should be considered illustrative rather than restrictive. The scope of the present invention is set forth in the claims, not the foregoing description, and all differences within the scope equivalent thereto should be construed as being encompassed by the present invention.
본 발명에 의하면, 유압장치의 피스톤에 의한 구동축과 평행한 방향의 직선 왕복운동에 의해 구동축의 구동기어 어셈블리와 종동축의 종동기어 어셈블리의 회전판이 연동하여 회전하도록 제어함으로써 유성기어의 회전반경을 조절하여 용이하게 변속할 수 있다.According to the present invention, the rotation radius of the planetary gear can be adjusted to easily change gears by controlling the rotation plates of the drive gear assembly of the drive shaft and the driven gear assembly of the driven shaft to rotate in conjunction with each other through a linear reciprocating motion in a direction parallel to the drive shaft by the piston of the hydraulic device.
더불어, 본 발명에 의하면, 유성기어의 회전반경이 변경됨에 따라 구동축의 유성기어와 종동축의 유성기어를 연결하는 벨트의 길이가 달라지는 문제를 벨트 위, 아래에 설치되고, 유압장치에 의한 직선 왕복운동에 연동되어 동작하는 롤러장치에 의해 해소할 수 있다.In addition, according to the present invention, the problem of the length of the belt connecting the planetary gear of the drive shaft and the planetary gear of the driven shaft changing as the rotation radius of the planetary gear changes can be solved by a roller device installed above and below the belt and operating in conjunction with a linear reciprocating motion by a hydraulic device.
더불어, 본 발명에 의하면, 구동축과 종동축에서 유성기어의 회전반경이 차이가 생김으로 인하여 발생되는 편심 현상은 유압장치에 의한 직선 왕복운동에 연동되어 동작하는 가압위치조정기에 의해 연동제어대를 가압하는 위치를 조정함에 의해 해소할 수 있다.In addition, according to the present invention, an eccentric phenomenon occurring due to a difference in the rotational radius of the planetary gear in the driving shaft and the driven shaft can be resolved by adjusting the position at which the linkage control unit is pressed by a pressure position adjuster that operates in conjunction with the linear reciprocating motion by the hydraulic device.
