A torsion bar damping mechanism for road wheels of tracked vehicles

Abstract

The invention provides a torsion bar shock-absorption mechanism used for road wheels of a tracked vehicle. The torsion bar shock-absorption mechanism comprises a vehicle chassis, road wheels, locknuts, axles, shaft sleeves, support arms, rotary shafts, thin gaskets, outer end lock screws, rocker arms, lock-fixed screws, slide blocks, connection rods, clamping blocks, a lock bolt set, torsion bar fixing-clamping blocks, torsion bars and inner end lock screws. The torsion bar shock-absorption mechanism is characterized in that load applied to the road wheels can be balanced through torque of the torsion bars, and simplicity and reliability are achieved; compared with spring shock absorption, the effect is good, and the service life is long; the torsion bars are balanced when being subjected to acting force and are bent when being subjected to torque so that a very good shock-absorption effect can be achieved; the very good shock-absorption effect is achieved for a robot, a model tank and a vehicle which travel through small tracks.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention provides a torsion bar damping mechanism for a road wheel of a crawler vehicle, which belongs to the field of damping design of a road wheel. Background technique [0002] Small crawlers are often used in various equipment such as small robots, small obstacle-crossing vehicles, and large-scale tank models. They are popular for their excellent climbing performance and flexible turning ability. In the common small crawler mechanism, the road wheel is the component that bears the weight of the entire equipment and the external load. Its design requires complex capabilities, good shock absorption performance, and long service life. At present, the common road wheel shock absorption design mostly uses springs or extension springs as the shock absorption design, which has high requirements on the performance of the spring and requires a reliable design of the limit block, and some unexpected situations will occur during the use of the spring, s...

Problems solved by technology

At present, the common road wheel shock absorption design mostly uses springs or extension springs as the shock absorption design, which has high requirements on the performance of the spring and requires a reliable design of the limit block, and some unexpected situations will occur during the use of the spring, such as The elastic force is large at the beginning, and the elastic force increases and decreases after a heavy load, which directly causes the vehicle to lie down, and the service life is short, and it is easy to be stuck by some debris
