Therefore, in order to withstand the transmission of large amounts of power, it is necessary to expand the shaft diameter of the worm and increase the size of the bearing that supports the worm.This also causes the overall size of the worm reducer to become larger, making it more compact. The problem was that it lacked quality and increased costs.

- the configuration is a combination of the first threaded part 35 with a right-handed threaded structure and the second threaded part 36 with a left-handed threaded structure, the thrust forces applied in the axial direction of the worm 30 during drive rotation of the worm 30 are canceled out by each other. can. Therefore, the equivalent radial load on the bearings 33 and 34 that rotatably support both ends of the worm 30 can be relatively reduced. As a result, the worm reducer 25 can be made smaller by making the bearings 33 and 34 smaller.
- the space occupied by the worm reducer 25 in the direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the worm 30 can be made smaller than when a plurality of worm wheels are distributed and arranged on both sides of the worm 30 in the axial direction.

It may also be configured to rotate with a rotational force generated by the rotational force.
- the first rotating member and the second rotating member that rotate with the rotation of the first output shaft 26 and the second output shaft 27 are not the first sprocket 28 and the second sprocket 29, but the first roller and a second roller.

Description
本開示は、ウォーム減速機及び噛合チェーン駆動装置に関する。
The present disclosure relates to a worm reducer and a meshing chain drive device.
例えば特許文献1に記載のウォーム減速機が知られている。ウォーム減速機は、ウォームと、ウォームホイールと、を備えている。ウォームの周面には、螺旋状のねじ部が形成されている。ウォームホイールの周面には、ウォームのねじ部に噛合する歯部が形成されている。ウォームは、軸方向の両端部が一対の軸受により回転自在に支持された状態で電動モータから伝達される駆動力により駆動回転する。一方、ウォームホイールは、その歯部をウォームのねじ部に噛合させた状態でウォームの駆動回転に伴い従動回転する。そして、ウォームホイールには、出力側の運動機構に減速した回転力を伝達するための出力軸がウォームホイールと一体回転するように連結されている。
For example, a worm reducer described in Patent Document 1 is known. The worm reducer includes a worm and a worm wheel. A spiral threaded portion is formed on the circumferential surface of the worm. Teeth are formed on the circumferential surface of the worm wheel and engage with the threaded portion of the worm. The worm is driven and rotated by a driving force transmitted from an electric motor, with both ends in the axial direction being rotatably supported by a pair of bearings. On the other hand, the worm wheel rotates as the worm rotates while its teeth mesh with the threaded portion of the worm. An output shaft for transmitting the reduced rotational force to the output-side motion mechanism is connected to the worm wheel so as to rotate together with the worm wheel.
ところで、ウォーム減速機を介して動力を伝達する際において、ウォームの駆動回転に基づいて二本の出力軸を同時に回転させたい場合がある。その場合には、例えばウォームホイールと一体回転する出力軸を第1出力軸としたとき、その第1出力軸と平行な態様に第2出力軸が配置される。そして、第1出力軸の軸方向の所定位置に取り付けた第1ヘリカルギヤと、第2出力軸の軸方向において第1出力軸の第1ヘリカルギヤの取付位置と対応する位置に取り付けた第2ヘリカルギヤとが噛合される。
By the way, when transmitting power via a worm reducer, there are cases where it is desired to simultaneously rotate two output shafts based on the drive rotation of the worm. In that case, for example, when the output shaft that rotates integrally with the worm wheel is the first output shaft, the second output shaft is arranged parallel to the first output shaft. and a first helical gear attached to a predetermined position in the axial direction of the first output shaft, and a second helical gear attached to a position corresponding to the attachment position of the first helical gear of the first output shaft in the axial direction of the second output shaft. are engaged.
このように構成した場合には、ウォームの駆動回転に伴いウォームホイールが従動回転したとき、第1ヘリカルギヤ及び第2ヘリカルギヤを介して第1出力軸から第2出力軸に駆動力が伝達される。その結果、ウォームの駆動回転に伴い第1出力軸及び第2出力軸が同時に回転するようになる。
With this configuration, when the worm wheel rotates as a result of the drive rotation of the worm, the driving force is transmitted from the first output shaft to the second output shaft via the first helical gear and the second helical gear. As a result, the first output shaft and the second output shaft rotate simultaneously as the worm rotates.
しかしながら、このように構成する場合には、駆動力を第1出力軸から第2出力軸に伝達するための動力伝達機構として、第1ヘリカルギヤ及び第2ヘリカルギヤが必要になる。そのため、こうした第1ヘリカルギヤ及び第2ヘリカルギヤからなる動力伝達機構が必要になる分だけ、部品点数が増えてしまうという課題があった。
However, in this configuration, a first helical gear and a second helical gear are required as a power transmission mechanism for transmitting driving force from the first output shaft to the second output shaft. Therefore, there is a problem in that the number of parts increases as the power transmission mechanism including the first helical gear and the second helical gear becomes necessary.

The first chain member 17 and the second chain member 18 each have a plurality of link plates 19 arranged in series. The first chain member 17 and the second chain member 18 are configured to have an elongated shape by sequentially connecting the link plates 19 adjacent to each other in the series direction with the connecting pins 20. In addition, in the meshing chain 12, the first chain member 17 and the second chain member 18 are connected to each other via a joint portion 21 at link plates 19 located at the tip portions of each other, which are the upper ends in FIG. A movable body 22 is attached to the joint portion 21. The movable body 22 moves forward and backward together with the meshing chain 12 while supporting functional members (not shown), such as a top plate that moves up and down and a door that opens and closes.
噛合チェーン12は、互いに噛合可能な対をなす第1チェーン部材17及び第2チェーン部材18を有している。第1チェーン部材17及び第2チェーン部材18は、直列に配置される複数のリンクプレート19をそれぞれ有している。そして、第1チェーン部材17及び第2チェーン部材18は、直列方向で隣り合うリンクプレート19同士が連結ピン20により順次に連結されることで長尺状をなすように構成されている。なお、噛合チェーン12において、第1チェーン部材17及び第2チェーン部材18は、図1では上端部となる互いの先端部に位置するリンクプレート19同士がジョイント部21を介して連結されている。そして、ジョイント部21には、可動体22が取り付けられている。可動体22は、例えば昇降動作する天板や開閉動作する扉等の図示しない機能性部材を支持した状態で噛合チェーン12と共に進退移動する。 <Interlocking chain>
The
なお、本実施形態では、図1での上下方向を、可動体22を移動させる際に噛合チェーン12が進退移動する進退方向Zとする。この場合、図1での上方向を噛合チェーン12の進行方向Z1とし、図1での下方向を噛合チェーン12の退行方向Z2とする。また、図1での左右方向を、噛合チェーン12における第1チェーン部材17及び第2チェーン部材18が相互に噛み合って一体化した噛合状態から退行方向Z2への移動に伴い相互に噛み外れて分岐する分岐方向Xとする。また、図1での前後方向を、進退方向Z及び分岐方向Xの両方と直交する奥行方向Yとする。奥行方向Yは、噛合チェーン12の幅方向と一致する。
In the present embodiment, the vertical direction in FIG. 1 is defined as a forward/backward direction Z in which the meshing chain 12 moves forward and backward when moving the movable body 22. In this case, the upward direction in FIG. 1 is defined as the advancing direction Z1 of the meshing chain 12, and the downward direction in FIG. 1 is defined as the retreating direction Z2 of the meshing chain 12. Further, in the left-right direction in FIG. 1, the first chain member 17 and the second chain member 18 in the meshing chain 12 mesh with each other and diverge as they move in the backward direction Z2 from the meshed state where they mesh with each other and become integrated. Let the branching direction be X. Further, the front-rear direction in FIG. 1 is defined as a depth direction Y that is orthogonal to both the advance/retreat direction Z and the branching direction X. The depth direction Y coincides with the width direction of the meshing chain 12.
噛合チェーン12における第1チェーン部材17及び第2チェーン部材18は、長さ方向において各々の先端が位置する方向である進行方向Z1に各々移動することで相互に噛み合って棒状に一体化する。その一方、噛合チェーン12における第1チェーン部材17及び第2チェーン部材18は、噛合状態から進行方向Z1とは反対の退行方向Z2に各々移動することで相互に噛み外れて分岐する。因みに、本実施形態では、第1チェーン部材17と第2チェーン部材18は、進行方向Z1に各々移動することで相互に噛み合った場合、直棒状に一体化する。但し、第1チェーン部材17と第2チェーン部材18は、相互に噛み合ったとき曲棒状に一体化するように構成されてもよい。

The worm reducer 25 is disposed at a position on the rear side of the base portion 14 that is the rear side of the substrate portion 15 and between the left and right side plate portions 16 . The worm reducer 25 is driven by the driving force of the first electric motor 23 or the second electric motor 24. The first output shaft 26 and the second output shaft 27 are each rotatably supported by a pair of through holes (not shown) formed at two positions spaced apart in the branching direction X in the substrate portion 15 of the base portion 14 . That is, the first output shaft 26 and the second output shaft 27 are rotated by the driving force output from the worm reducer 25 in a state where their axes are spaced apart from each other in the branching direction X and extend parallel to the depth direction Y.

一方、第1スプロケット28及び第2スプロケット29は、ベース部14における基板部15の手前側であって左右の側板部16の間となる位置に配置されている。この場合、第1スプロケット28及び第2スプロケット29は、第1出力軸26及び第2出力軸27における基板部15の手前側に突出した各端部に固定されている。すなわち、第1スプロケット28及び第2スプロケット29は、第1出力軸26及び第2出力軸27と一体回転するように構成されている。この点で、第1スプロケット28は第1出力軸26の回転に伴い回転する第1回転部材に相当すると共に、第2スプロケット29は第2出力軸27の回転に伴い回転する第2回転部材に相当する。
On the other hand, the first sprocket 28 and the second sprocket 29 are arranged at a position in front of the base plate part 15 in the base part 14 and between the left and right side plate parts 16. In this case, the first sprocket 28 and the second sprocket 29 are fixed to respective ends of the first output shaft 26 and the second output shaft 27 that protrude toward the front side of the base plate portion 15. That is, the first sprocket 28 and the second sprocket 29 are configured to rotate together with the first output shaft 26 and the second output shaft 27. In this respect, the first sprocket 28 corresponds to a first rotating member that rotates as the first output shaft 26 rotates, and the second sprocket 29 corresponds to a second rotating member that rotates as the second output shaft 27 rotates.

第1スプロケット28には、第1チェーン部材17の長さ方向の一部が巻き掛け態様で係合されている。第2スプロケット29には、第2チェーン部材18の長さ方向の一部が巻き掛け態様で係合されている。そのため、ウォーム減速機25の駆動に伴い第1出力軸26及び第2出力軸27が回転した場合には、第1スプロケット28及び第2スプロケット29も同方向に各々回転する。そして、第1スプロケット28及び第2スプロケット29が回転することによって、第1チェーン部材17及び第2チェーン部材18からなる噛合チェーン12が長さ方向に進退移動する。
A portion of the first chain member 17 in the length direction is engaged with the first sprocket 28 in a wrapping manner. A portion of the second chain member 18 in the length direction is engaged with the second sprocket 29 in a winding manner.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, both ends of the worm 30 are connected to the motor shafts of the first electric motor 23 and the second electric motor 24 via connecting shafts 23a, 24a and a one-way clutch (not shown). There is. The connecting shafts 23a and 24a are connected to both ends of the worm 30 via a key structure 37. The first electric motor 23 and the second electric motor 24 are configured to rotate in a counterclockwise direction when viewed from the worm 30 side.
ここで、第1電動モータ23の駆動時の回転方向を第1回転方向とし、第2電動モータ24の駆動時の回転方向を第2回転方向とした場合、ウォーム30は、その回転方向が次のようになる。すなわち、第1電動モータ23が駆動された場合、ウォーム30は連結軸23aを介して伝達される回転力に基づき第1回転方向に回転する。そして、この場合、第2電動モータ24はワンウェイクラッチが介在するため空転状態となる。一方、第2電動モータ24が駆動された場合、ウォーム30は連結軸24aを介して伝達される回転力に基づき第2回転方向に回転する。そして、この場合、第1電動モータ23はワンウェイクラッチが介在するため空転状態となる。
Here, if the rotational direction when the first electric motor 23 is driven is the first rotational direction, and the rotational direction when the second electric motor 24 is driven is the second rotational direction, the worm 30 has the following rotational direction. become that way. That is, when the first electric motor 23 is driven, the worm 30 rotates in the first rotation direction based on the rotational force transmitted via the connecting shaft 23a. In this case, the second electric motor 24 is in an idling state due to the presence of the one-way clutch. On the other hand, when the second electric motor 24 is driven, the worm 30 rotates in the second rotation direction based on the rotational force transmitted via the connection shaft 24a. In this case, the first electric motor 23 is in an idling state due to the presence of the one-way clutch.
<ウォームホイール>
複数のウォームホイールである第1ウォームホイール31と第2ウォームホイール32は、第1出力軸26及び第2出力軸27における基板部15の奧側に突出した端部に対して第1出力軸26及び第2出力軸27と一体回転可能に取り付けられている。そのため、第1ウォームホイール31及び第2ウォームホイール32は、互いの軸線同士が分岐方向Xに離間し且つ奥行方向Yに平行な態様に配置された状態で、第1出力軸26及び第2出力軸27と共に回転する。第1ウォームホイール31の周面にはウォーム30の第1ねじ部35に噛合する斜歯状の第1歯部38が形成されている。第2ウォームホイール32の周面にはウォーム30の第2ねじ部36に噛合する斜歯状の第2歯部39が形成されている。 <Worm wheel>
Afirst worm wheel 31 and a second worm wheel 32, which are a plurality of worm wheels, are connected to the first output shaft 26 with respect to the ends of the first output shaft 26 and the second output shaft 27 that protrude to the back side of the base plate part 15. and is attached so as to be rotatable integrally with the second output shaft 27. Therefore, the first worm wheel 31 and the second worm wheel 32 are arranged such that their axes are spaced apart from each other in the branching direction X and parallel to the depth direction Y, and the first output shaft 26 and the second output shaft It rotates together with the shaft 27. The first worm wheel 31 has a circumferential surface formed thereon with a first toothed portion 38 having a diagonal shape that engages with the first threaded portion 35 of the worm 30 . The second worm wheel 32 has a circumferential surface formed with a second toothed portion 39 having a diagonal tooth shape that meshes with the second threaded portion 36 of the worm 30 .
複数のウォームホイールである第1ウォームホイール31と第2ウォームホイール32は、第1出力軸26及び第2出力軸27における基板部15の奧側に突出した端部に対して第1出力軸26及び第2出力軸27と一体回転可能に取り付けられている。そのため、第1ウォームホイール31及び第2ウォームホイール32は、互いの軸線同士が分岐方向Xに離間し且つ奥行方向Yに平行な態様に配置された状態で、第1出力軸26及び第2出力軸27と共に回転する。第1ウォームホイール31の周面にはウォーム30の第1ねじ部35に噛合する斜歯状の第1歯部38が形成されている。第2ウォームホイール32の周面にはウォーム30の第2ねじ部36に噛合する斜歯状の第2歯部39が形成されている。 <Worm wheel>
A
第1ウォームホイール31及び第2ウォームホイール32は、それらと個別に対応する第1出力軸26及び第2出力軸27の端部に固定されている。そのため、第1ウォームホイール31及び第2ウォームホイール32は、両方とも図3ではウォーム30よりも下側に配置されることになる。すなわち、第1ウォームホイール31及び第2ウォームホイール32は、ウォーム30の軸方向と直交する方向において、ウォーム30から見た場合に同じ片方側に、すなわち、図3ではウォーム30よりも下側に配置される。そして、そのように配置された状態において、第1ウォームホイール31は第1歯部38をウォーム30の第1ねじ部35に下側から噛合させ、第2ウォームホイール32は第2歯部39をウォーム30の第2ねじ部36に下側から噛合させている。
The first worm wheel 31 and the second worm wheel 32 are fixed to the corresponding ends of the first output shaft 26 and the second output shaft 27, respectively. Therefore, both the first worm wheel 31 and the second worm wheel 32 are arranged below the worm 30 in FIG. 3 . That is, the first worm wheel 31 and the second worm wheel 32 are located on the same side when viewed from the worm 30 in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the worm 30, that is, on the lower side than the worm 30 in FIG. Placed. In such an arranged state, the first worm wheel 31 engages the first toothed portion 38 with the first threaded portion 35 of the worm 30 from below, and the second worm wheel 32 engages the second toothed portion 39 with the first threaded portion 35 of the worm 30. It is engaged with the second threaded portion 36 of the worm 30 from below.

Next, the functions of the
さて、噛合チェーン駆動装置13において第1電動モータ23又は第2電動モータ24が駆動されると、ウォーム減速機25においてウォーム30が第1回転方向又は第2回転方向に駆動回転する。すると、ウォーム30の第1ねじ部35に第1歯部38を噛合させた第1ウォームホイール31及びウォーム30の第2ねじ部36に第2歯部39を噛合させた第2ウォームホイール32が各々従動回転する。そして、第1ウォームホイール31及び第2ウォームホイール32の従動回転による回転力が第1出力軸26及び第2出力軸27を介して第1スプロケット28及び第2スプロケット29に伝達される。その結果、第1スプロケット28及び第2スプロケット29に巻き掛け態様で係合する第1チェーン部材17及び第2チェーン部材18の各々が進行方向Z1又は退行方向Z2に移動する。
Now, when the first electric motor 23 or the second electric motor 24 is driven in the meshing chain drive device 13, the worm 30 in the worm reducer 25 is driven to rotate in the first rotation direction or the second rotation direction. Then, the first worm wheel 31 in which the first toothed part 38 is engaged with the first threaded part 35 of the worm 30 and the second worm wheel 32 in which the second toothed part 39 is engaged in the second threaded part 36 of the worm 30 are activated. Each rotates as a result. Then, the rotational force due to the driven rotation of the first worm wheel 31 and the second worm wheel 32 is transmitted to the first sprocket 28 and the second sprocket 29 via the first output shaft 26 and the second output shaft 27. As a result, each of the first chain member 17 and the second chain member 18, which are engaged with the first sprocket 28 and the second sprocket 29 in a wrapping manner, moves in the advancing direction Z1 or the retreating direction Z2.
このように、本実施形態では、ウォーム減速機25のウォーム30の駆動回転に伴い、第1ウォームホイール31及び第2ウォームホイール32という複数のウォームホイールが同時に従動回転する。そして、この従動回転による回転力を第1スプロケット28及び第2スプロケット29に伝達するための第1出力軸26及び第2出力軸27という複数の出力軸が同時に回転される。その結果、第1スプロケット28及び第2スプロケット29に巻き掛け態様で係合した第1チェーン部材17及び第2チェーン部材18という複数の移動部材もウォーム30の駆動回転に伴い同時に移動される。
As described above, in this embodiment, as the worm 30 of the worm reducer 25 is driven to rotate, a plurality of worm wheels, namely the first worm wheel 31 and the second worm wheel 32, are driven to rotate simultaneously. Then, a plurality of output shafts, the first output shaft 26 and the second output shaft 27, which transmit the rotational force due to this driven rotation to the first sprocket 28 and the second sprocket 29, are rotated simultaneously. As a result, the plurality of moving members, the first chain member 17 and the second chain member 18, which are engaged with the first sprocket 28 and the second sprocket 29 in a winding manner, are also moved simultaneously with the drive rotation of the worm 30.
また、特許文献1に記載のウォーム減速機の場合は、第1ヘリカルギヤ及び第2ヘリカルギヤという互いに噛合する2つのギヤを回転させ得る大きな動力をウォーム側から伝達していた。そのため、大きな動力の伝達に耐え得るように、ウォームの軸径を拡張したりウォームを支持する軸受を大きくしたりする必要があり、この点でも、ウォーム減速機の全体を大きくする要因となりコンパクト性に欠け、コストがかさむという課題があった。これに対し、本実施形態のウォーム減速機25の場合は、そのような複数のヘリカルギヤを不要とする構成であるため、コンパクト化及びコストの低減を図ることができる。
Furthermore, in the case of the worm reducer described in Patent Document 1, a large power capable of rotating two mutually meshing gears, the first helical gear and the second helical gear, is transmitted from the worm side. Therefore, in order to withstand the transmission of large amounts of power, it is necessary to expand the shaft diameter of the worm and increase the size of the bearing that supports the worm.This also causes the overall size of the worm reducer to become larger, making it more compact. The problem was that it lacked quality and increased costs. On the other hand, the worm reducer 25 of this embodiment has a configuration that does not require such a plurality of helical gears, so it is possible to achieve downsizing and cost reduction.
ところで、図1及び図2の状態において、ウォーム減速機25から見て動力伝達方向で出力側の機構である第1スプロケット28及び第2スプロケット29などから第1出力軸26及び第2出力軸27を介してウォーム減速機25に振動が伝わることがある。すなわち、ウォーム減速機25が静止状態のときに動力伝達経路上でスプロケットよりも出力側から他部材の干渉等に基づく振動がスプロケットを介して入力側のウォームのねじ部に伝わることがある。こうした場合、ウォーム減速機25が、ねじ部を一つだけ有する一つのウォーム30に一つのウォームホイールが歯部を噛合させた構成であると、出力側から伝播した振動でウォーム30が静止状態から逆回転する虞がある。しかし、本実施形態では、例えば出力側の第1スプロケット28から第1出力軸26を介して入力側のウォーム30に振動が伝播しようとしても、そうした振動の伝播は、第2ねじ部36に第2歯部39を噛合させた第2ウォームホイール32により抑制される。
By the way, in the state shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the first output shaft 26 and the second output shaft 27 are connected to the first sprocket 28 and the second sprocket 29, which are mechanisms on the output side in the power transmission direction when viewed from the worm reducer 25. Vibration may be transmitted to the worm reducer 25 via the worm reducer 25. That is, when the worm reducer 25 is in a stationary state, vibrations due to interference of other members may be transmitted from the output side of the sprocket on the power transmission path to the threaded portion of the worm on the input side via the sprocket. In such a case, if the worm reducer 25 has a configuration in which one worm wheel meshes teeth with one worm 30 having only one threaded part, the worm 30 will move from a stationary state due to vibration propagated from the output side. There is a risk of it rotating backwards. However, in this embodiment, even if vibrations are to be propagated from the first sprocket 28 on the output side to the worm 30 on the input side via the first output shaft 26, the propagation of such vibrations is This is suppressed by the second worm wheel 32 with two teeth 39 meshing with each other.
また、図2及び図3に示すように、本実施形態では、ウォーム減速機25における第1ウォームホイール31及び第2ウォームホイール32がウォーム30の軸方向と直交する上下方向で両方ともウォーム30よりも下側に配置されている。そのため、ウォーム30の軸方向と直交する上下方向の両側に第1ウォームホイール31と第2ウォームホイール32が振り分けられて配置されている場合よりも、ウォーム減速機25の上下方向の占有スペースを小さくすることが可能とされる。
Further, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, in this embodiment, the first worm wheel 31 and the second worm wheel 32 in the worm reducer 25 are both lower than the worm 30 in the vertical direction orthogonal to the axial direction of the worm 30. is also located at the bottom. Therefore, the space occupied by the worm reducer 25 in the vertical direction is smaller than in the case where the first worm wheel 31 and the second worm wheel 32 are distributed and arranged on both sides in the vertical direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the worm 30. It is possible to do so.
また、第1電動モータ23又は第2電動モータ24の駆動力でウォーム30が駆動回転した場合において、第1ねじ部35及び第2ねじ部36が両方共に右ねじ構造又は両方共に左ねじ構造である場合には、次のような問題がある。
Further, when the worm 30 is driven and rotated by the driving force of the first electric motor 23 or the second electric motor 24, the first threaded portion 35 and the second threaded portion 36 both have a right-handed thread structure or both have a left-handed thread structure. In some cases, the following problems may arise:
すなわち、ウォーム30には、第1ねじ部35に第1歯部38が噛合する第1ウォームホイール31及び第2ねじ部36に第2歯部39が噛合する第2ウォームホイール32という二つのウォームホイールが噛合している。そして、その二つのウォームホイールは、第1ねじ部35及び第2ねじ部36の螺旋ねじ方向が同じであると、ウォーム30の駆動回転に伴い両方とも同一方向に従動回転することになる。
That is, the worm 30 includes two worms: a first worm wheel 31 in which a first toothed part 38 meshes with a first threaded part 35 and a second worm wheel 32 in which a second toothed part 39 meshes with a second threaded part 36. The wheels are engaged. If the helical screw directions of the first threaded portion 35 and the second threaded portion 36 are the same, the two worm wheels will be driven to rotate in the same direction as the worm 30 is driven to rotate.
そのため、ねじ部を一つだけ有するウォーム30のねじ部に一つのウォームホイールが歯部を噛合させただけの構成に比して、同一方向に従動回転するウォームホイールの数が2倍になることから、ウォーム30の軸方向にかかる推力が2倍になる。その結果、そのウォーム30の両端部を回転自在に支持する軸受33,34にも、同様に、2倍の推力がかかることになるので、軸受33,34を大型化させる必要があった。
Therefore, compared to a configuration in which one worm wheel has its teeth meshed with the threaded part of the worm 30 having only one threaded part, the number of worm wheels that are driven to rotate in the same direction is doubled. Therefore, the thrust force applied to the worm 30 in the axial direction is doubled. As a result, the bearings 33 and 34 that rotatably support both ends of the worm 30 are also subjected to twice the thrust, so it was necessary to increase the size of the bearings 33 and 34.
この点、本実施形態では、ウォーム30における第1ねじ部35が右ねじ構造であると共に第2ねじ部36が左ねじ構造である。そのため、ウォーム30が駆動回転したときにウォーム30の軸方向にかかる推力が、軸方向の一方側からの推力と他方側からの推力で互いに打ち消し合うことになる。したがって、ウォーム30の両端部を回転自在に支持する軸受33,34を大型化する必要もなくなる。また、右ねじ構造の第1ねじ部35側の推力と左ねじ構造の第2ねじ部36側の推力が互いに打ち消し合うため、ウォーム減速機25の駆動時における振動の振幅も小さくなる。そのため、ウォーム減速機25の駆動時の振動に起因するセルフロック性の低下を抑制することができる。
In this regard, in the present embodiment, the first threaded portion 35 of the worm 30 has a right-handed threaded structure, and the second threaded portion 36 has a left-handed threaded structure. Therefore, when the worm 30 is driven to rotate, the thrust applied in the axial direction of the worm 30 is canceled out by the thrust from one side in the axial direction and the thrust from the other side. Therefore, there is no need to increase the size of the bearings 33 and 34 that rotatably support both ends of the worm 30. Further, since the thrust on the first threaded portion 35 side of the right-handed threaded structure and the thrust on the second threaded portion 36 side of the left-handed threaded structure cancel each other out, the amplitude of vibration when the worm reducer 25 is driven also becomes smaller. Therefore, it is possible to suppress deterioration in self-locking performance due to vibrations when the worm reducer 25 is driven.

(1) Thefirst output shaft 26 and the second output shaft 27 can be simultaneously rotated as the worm 30 is driven to rotate without using a power transmission mechanism such as a helical gear. Therefore, a plurality of output shafts connected to the output side can be simultaneously rotated as the worm 30 is driven to rotate without increasing the number of parts.

(2) For example, even if vibration is about to propagate from the output side of the first worm wheel 31, in which the first tooth portion 38 is meshed with the first screw portion 35, to the input side worm 30, the propagation of the vibration is This can be suppressed by the second worm wheel 32 in which the second tooth portion 39 is engaged with the threaded portion 36.
(3)右ねじ構造の第1ねじ部35と左ねじ構造の第2ねじ部36との組み合わせ構成であるため、ウォーム30の駆動回転時にウォーム30の軸方向にかかる推力を互いに打ち消し合うようにできる。そのため、ウォーム30の両端部を回転自在に支持する軸受33,34における等価ラジアル荷重を相対的に小さくできる。その結果、軸受33,34の小型化を通じてウォーム減速機25の小型化を図ることができる。
(3) Since the configuration is a combination of the first threaded part 35 with a right-handed threaded structure and the second threaded part 36 with a left-handed threaded structure, the thrust forces applied in the axial direction of the worm 30 during drive rotation of the worm 30 are canceled out by each other. can. Therefore, the equivalent radial load on the bearings 33 and 34 that rotatably support both ends of the worm 30 can be relatively reduced. As a result, the worm reducer 25 can be made smaller by making the bearings 33 and 34 smaller.

・図4に示す変更例のウォーム減速機125を噛合チェーン駆動装置13に備える構成としてもよい。
この変更例のウォーム減速機125においては、電動モータ140の駆動力で駆動回転するウォーム130が噛合チェーン12の進退方向Zとなる例えば上下方向に沿うように配置されている。ウォーム130は、その両端部が一対の軸受133,134により回転自在に支持されると共に、その軸方向の略中央部には、螺旋状のねじ部141が一つだけ形成されている。また、ウォーム130の軸方向と直交する方向の両側には、第1出力軸126と一体回転する第1ウォームホイール131及び第2出力軸127と一体回転する第2ウォームホイール132が、ウォーム130を両側から挟むように配置されている。そして、ウォーム130の一つのねじ部141に第1ウォームホイール131及び第2ウォームホイール132の第1歯部138及び第2歯部139が各々噛合されている。この変更例のウォーム減速機125でも、ヘリカルギヤ及び平歯車等からなる動力伝達機構を用いなくても、ウォーム130の駆動回転に伴い第1出力軸126及び第2出力軸127を同時に回転させることができる。そのため、部品点数を増やすことなく、ウォーム130の駆動回転に伴い出力側に連結した複数の出力軸を同時に回転させることができる。 - It is good also as a structure which equips the meshingchain drive device 13 with the worm reducer 125 of the modification shown in FIG.
In theworm reducer 125 of this modification, the worm 130 that is driven and rotated by the driving force of the electric motor 140 is arranged along, for example, the vertical direction, which is the advancing and retreating direction Z of the meshing chain 12. Both ends of the worm 130 are rotatably supported by a pair of bearings 133 and 134, and only one spiral threaded portion 141 is formed approximately at the center in the axial direction. Further, on both sides of the worm 130 in a direction orthogonal to the axial direction, a first worm wheel 131 that rotates integrally with the first output shaft 126 and a second worm wheel 132 that rotates integrally with the second output shaft 127 rotate the worm 130. They are arranged so that they are sandwiched from both sides. The first toothed portion 138 and the second toothed portion 139 of the first worm wheel 131 and the second worm wheel 132 are engaged with one threaded portion 141 of the worm 130, respectively. Even in the worm reducer 125 of this modified example, the first output shaft 126 and the second output shaft 127 can be rotated simultaneously with the driving rotation of the worm 130 without using a power transmission mechanism consisting of a helical gear, a spur gear, etc. can. Therefore, a plurality of output shafts connected to the output side can be simultaneously rotated as the worm 130 is driven to rotate without increasing the number of parts.
この変更例のウォーム減速機125においては、電動モータ140の駆動力で駆動回転するウォーム130が噛合チェーン12の進退方向Zとなる例えば上下方向に沿うように配置されている。ウォーム130は、その両端部が一対の軸受133,134により回転自在に支持されると共に、その軸方向の略中央部には、螺旋状のねじ部141が一つだけ形成されている。また、ウォーム130の軸方向と直交する方向の両側には、第1出力軸126と一体回転する第1ウォームホイール131及び第2出力軸127と一体回転する第2ウォームホイール132が、ウォーム130を両側から挟むように配置されている。そして、ウォーム130の一つのねじ部141に第1ウォームホイール131及び第2ウォームホイール132の第1歯部138及び第2歯部139が各々噛合されている。この変更例のウォーム減速機125でも、ヘリカルギヤ及び平歯車等からなる動力伝達機構を用いなくても、ウォーム130の駆動回転に伴い第1出力軸126及び第2出力軸127を同時に回転させることができる。そのため、部品点数を増やすことなく、ウォーム130の駆動回転に伴い出力側に連結した複数の出力軸を同時に回転させることができる。 - It is good also as a structure which equips the meshing
In the
・第1出力軸26,126と第1ウォームホイール31,131は、互いに軸線同士を一致させた配置で一体回転する構成でなくてもよい。同様に、第2出力軸27,127と第2ウォームホイール32,132も、互いに軸線同士を一致させた配置で一体回転する構成でなくてもよい。例えば、第1出力軸26,126及び第2出力軸27,127は、第1ウォームホイール31,131及び第2ウォームホイール32,132とは軸線同士が一致しない配置とされて歯車機構等により伝達される回転力で回転する構成でもよい。
- The first output shaft 26, 126 and the first worm wheel 31, 131 do not have to be arranged so that their axes coincide with each other and rotate together. Similarly, the second output shafts 27, 127 and the second worm wheels 32, 132 do not have to be configured to rotate together with their axes aligned with each other. For example, the first output shaft 26, 126 and the second output shaft 27, 127 are arranged so that their axes do not coincide with those of the first worm wheel 31, 131 and the second worm wheel 32, 132, and the transmission is transmitted by a gear mechanism or the like. It may also be configured to rotate with a rotational force generated by the rotational force.
・噛合チェーン駆動装置13において第1出力軸26及び第2出力軸27の回転に伴い回転する第1回転部材及び第2回転部材は、第1スプロケット28及び第2スプロケット29ではなく、第1ローラ及び第2ローラ等のローラで構成されてもよい。
- In the meshing chain drive device 13, the first rotating member and the second rotating member that rotate with the rotation of the first output shaft 26 and the second output shaft 27 are not the first sprocket 28 and the second sprocket 29, but the first roller and a second roller.
・ウォーム減速機25、125は、第1出力軸26,126及び第2出力軸27,127を介して第1チェーン部材17及び第2チェーン部材18以外の例えばベルト等の移動部材やローラ等の回転部材を駆動するための動力を出力する構成でもよい。すなわち、ウォーム減速機25、125は、噛合チェーン駆動装置13に備えられて噛合チェーン12を進退移動させるための駆動力を出力する構成に限定されるものではなく、その他の機械装置に備えられる汎用的な駆動装置に駆動力を出力する構成でもよい。
- The worm reducers 25, 125 connect moving members other than the first chain member 17 and the second chain member 18, such as belts, rollers, etc., via the first output shafts 26, 126 and the second output shafts 27, 127. It may also be configured to output power for driving the rotating member. That is, the worm reducers 25 and 125 are not limited to a configuration in which the gear reducers 25 and 125 are provided in the mesh chain drive device 13 and output a driving force for moving the mesh chain 12 forward and backward, but are general-purpose reducers that are provided in other mechanical devices. The configuration may also be such that the driving force is output to a conventional driving device.
・ウォーム減速機25、125は、汎用的な駆動装置に駆動力を出力する構成の場合、ウォーム30における第1ねじ部35及び第2ねじ部36は、両方共に右ねじ構造であってもよく、あるいは、両方共に左ねじ構造であってもよい。この場合、ウォーム30の軸方向には2倍の推力がかかることになり、軸受33,34の大型化が必要になるが、スペース的に軸受33,34の大型化が許容されるならば、上記のように同じねじ構造にしてもよい。
- If the worm reducer 25, 125 is configured to output driving force to a general-purpose drive device, the first threaded portion 35 and the second threaded portion 36 of the worm 30 may both have a right-handed threaded structure. , or both may have a left-handed screw structure. In this case, twice the thrust will be applied in the axial direction of the worm 30, and the bearings 33 and 34 will need to be made larger. However, if the bearings 33 and 34 are allowed to be made larger due to space considerations, The same screw structure as above may be used.
・ウォーム減速機25、125は、汎用的な駆動装置に駆動力を出力する構成の場合、第1ウォームホイール31と第1出力軸26及び第2ウォームホイール32と第2出力軸27が次のように配置された構成でもよい。すなわち、第1ウォームホイール31と第1出力軸26がウォーム30の軸方向と直交する方向の一方側に配置されると共に、第2ウォームホイール32と第2出力軸27がウォーム30の軸方向と直交する方向の他方側に配置される構成でもよい。この場合、ウォーム30の軸方向と直交する方向においてウォーム減速機25の占有スペースが大きくなるが、スペース的な余裕があれば、上記のようにしてもよい。

- The worm reducer 25 may be configured to include two first worm wheels 31 and two second worm wheels 32. In this case, the two first worm wheels 31 engage the respective first teeth 38 with the first threaded portion 35 from both sides in a direction orthogonal to the axial direction of the worm 30. Further, the two second worm wheels 32 engage the second tooth portions 39 of the two second threaded portions 36 from both sides in a direction orthogonal to the axial direction of the worm 30 .

・第1電動モータ23及び第2電動モータ24は、何れか一方が駆動される一方で他方が駆動を停止される構成に限らず、噛合チェーン12の進退移動時に両方が同期回転する構成でもよい。すなわち、第1電動モータ23及び第2電動モータ24は、ウォーム30側から見た場合に、両方が時計回り方向又は反時計回り方向を駆動時の回転方向として、一斉に同期回転する構成でもよい。このように構成した場合は、第1電動モータ23及び第2電動モータ24という2つの電動モータの合算された駆動力でウォーム減速機25を駆動できるため、相対的に低コストである小型のモータを使用することが可能とされる。また、例えば相対的に高出力である1つの電動モータを使用して、当該1つの電動モータがウォーム30側から見た場合に時計回り方向又は反時計回り方向を駆動時の回転方向として回転する構成でもよい。
- The first electric motor 23 and the second electric motor 24 are not limited to a configuration in which one of them is driven while the other is stopped; they may also be configured to rotate synchronously when the meshing chain 12 moves forward and backward. . That is, the first electric motor 23 and the second electric motor 24 may be configured to rotate simultaneously in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction when viewed from the worm 30 side. . When configured in this way, the worm reducer 25 can be driven by the combined driving force of the two electric motors, the first electric motor 23 and the second electric motor 24, so a small motor that is relatively low cost can be used. It is possible to use. Further, for example, one electric motor with a relatively high output is used, and the one electric motor rotates in a clockwise direction or a counterclockwise direction when viewed from the worm 30 side. It can also be a configuration.
・ウォーム30の両端部は、第1電動モータ23及び第2電動モータ24のモータ軸に対して、インロー構造により直結、またはカップリング介して連結される構成でもよい。
