DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] The utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0029] As attached Figures 1 to 3 As shown;

[0030] This embodiment discloses a connecting rod sub-assembly, including a connecting rod 11 and a connecting rod sleeve 12 connected to the right end of the connecting rod 11;

[0031] The right side of the connecting rod sleeve 12 has a mounting notch 121, the right side of the mounting notch 121 is open, and a recessed groove 21 is provided on the left inner wall; a built-in circuit board 31 is fixedly provided in the recessed groove 21, a conductive contact is fixedly provided on the right side of the built-in circuit board 31, a first wire 41 electrically connected to the conductive contact is welded on the built-in circuit board 31, the first wire 41 is led out of the connecting rod sleeve 12 and connected to the enable pin of the control chip 42, a resistor 43 is connected to the first wire 41, and the other end of the resistor 43 is connected to a 5V or 3V or 3.3V power supply 44;

[0032] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the control chip 42 adopts STM8, the power supply 44 corresponds to 3V, and the resistance value of the resistor 43 is 10k ohms.

[0033] A conductive slider 51 is slidably arranged in the recessed groove 21, and a second wire 61 is welded on the conductive slider 51. The second wire 61 is led out to the outside of the connecting rod sleeve 12 and connected to the ground wire 62; the upper and lower ends of the conductive slider 51 are respectively abutted against the upper and lower inner walls of the mounting slot 121 for stable lateral sliding, and a contact force-bearing piece is fixedly arranged on the right side of the conductive slider 51. Under normal conditions, the contact force-bearing piece will extend rightward out of the recessed groove 21, and the contact force-bearing piece can be forced to move leftward until the conductive slider 51 is connected to the conductive contact piece, and the enable pin of the control chip 42 will be grounded, and feedback output is achieved by changing the state of the enable pin of the control chip 42.

[0034] An inner spring 71 is squeezed between the built-in circuit board 31 and the conductive slider 51 . Due to the elastic force of the inner spring 71 , the conductive slider 51 tends to move away from the built-in circuit board 31 . The conductive slider 51 does not contact the conductive contact member under normal conditions.

[0035] A first square concave surface 721 is provided at the central position on the right side of the built-in circuit board 31 , a second square concave surface 722 is provided at the central position on the left side of the conductive slider 51 , and the left and right ends of the inner spring 71 are connected to the first square concave surface 721 and the second square concave surface 722 respectively.

[0036] The conductive contact piece is composed of two conductive metal blocks 32 , which are separated above and below the first square concave surface 721 . There is a gap between the two conductive metal blocks 32 and the first square concave surface 721 to ensure separation from the inner spring 71 .

[0037] It should be noted that the two conductive metal blocks 32 are both made of copper; the conductive slider 51 is also made of copper.

[0038] The cross-sectional shapes of the two conductive metal blocks 32 are both semicircular, and the left side of the conductive sliding block 51 is provided with two arc-shaped surfaces 33 which can contact the two conductive metal blocks 32 respectively.

The wire passing hole 91 is located directly above the wire passing notch 92 to prevent the upper end of the conductive slider 51 from deviating into the wire passing hole 91.

[0042] The working principle of this embodiment is:

[0043] ① Under normal conditions, the conductive slider 51 will move to the right under the push of the inner spring 71 until it abuts against the embedded block 82. At this time, the right end of the conductive slider 51 is flush with the notch of the inner recessed groove 21, and the two contact protrusions 52 extend to the right out of the inner recessed groove 21; the enable pin of the control chip 42 is connected to the power supply 44 through the connecting resistor 43, and the enable pin of the control chip 42 is pulled high and detected as a high-level state; the control chip 42 feeds back the high-level state to the electronic controller ECU.

[0044] ② When the connecting rod sleeve 12 is connected to the built-in solenoid valve shock absorber, the two contact protrusions 52 will be pushed to the left until the conductive slider 51 is connected to the two conductive metal blocks 32. At this time, the two conductive metal blocks 32 are connected to the ground wire 62, and the enable pin of the control chip 42 is grounded and detected as a low-level state; the control chip 42 feeds back the low-level state to the electronic controller ECU.

[0045] ③ Thus, feedback output is achieved by changing the high and low level states of the enable pin of the control chip 42.

[0046] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present invention and is not a limitation of the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make non-creative modifications to the present embodiment as needed, but such modifications are protected by patent law as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
