Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a welding structure of a cylinder barrel. Background Art

[0002] The cylinder barrel is the main body of the hydraulic cylinder. Its inner hole is generally manufactured by precision machining processes such as boring, reaming, rolling or honing, so that the piston and its seals and supports can slide smoothly, thereby ensuring the sealing effect and reducing wear. When working, the cylinder barrel has to withstand a large amount of hydraulic pressure, so the cylinder barrel should have sufficient strength and rigidity to ensure its quality. The key factor in the service life of the product lies in the service life of the cylinder barrel.

[0003] Generally, the end cover is welded to the end of the cylinder barrel to form a closed oil chamber with the cylinder barrel. Therefore, the end cover and its connectors should have sufficient strength. More importantly, the two are connected by welds and need to bear high pressure together. Since the annular welding structure will inevitably produce welds, the welds are the most vulnerable parts of the entire welding structure, such as various pores, slag inclusions and non-fusion. As shown in the figure. The weld will be subjected to liquid pressure, and stress concentration is more likely to occur at the weld, resulting in weld cracks in the weld. Due to the existence of weld cracks, the service life of the cylinder barrel will be greatly reduced. Therefore, how to reduce the impact of weld stress concentration is a key factor in improving the overall service life of the cylinder barrel. Summary of the invention

[0006] Furthermore, the first bottom wall is smoothly connected to the second bottom wall, and the first bottom wall has a portion of a concave arc wall.

[0007] Furthermore, the concave arc wall has a smooth transition.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc. indicate positions or positional relationships based on the positions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present invention. In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, features defined as "first", "second", etc. may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.

[0025] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a cylinder barrel welding structure, comprising a cylinder barrel 1 and an end cover 2. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the end cover 2 includes a body 20 and a groove portion 2121. The body 20 includes an outer wall 201 arranged in a circumferential direction, a top 202 close to the cylinder 1, and a bottom 203 opposite to the top 202. The outer wall 201 is partially recessed into the body 20 to form a welding point portion 204. The welding point portion 204 is arranged in a circumferential direction. The cylinder 1 and the end cover 2 are welded together to form a sealing member 100 by welding at the welding point portion 204. The groove portion 2121 extends from the top 202 to the bottom 203 to form an annular groove 211. The groove portion 2121 includes a first bottom wall 212 facing the welding point portion 204 and a second bottom wall 213 away from the welding point portion 204. The first bottom wall 212 is not connected to the welding point portion 204.

[0026] In the prior art, Figure 3As shown. The end cover 2 only has the solder joint part 204. The end cover 2 and the cylinder barrel 1 are welded at the solder joint part 204. There will be a weld seam 22 at the solder joint part 204. During operation, stress concentrates at this weld seam 22. When the stress is too large, it will cause a crack 22 in the weld seam 22. Due to the existence of the weld seam 22 crack, the seal 100 is more likely to be damaged, thus greatly reducing the service life of the seal 100.

[0027] In this embodiment, a bevel part 2121 is provided on the end cover 2. The bevel part 2121 extends from the top 202 to the bottom 203 to form an annular groove 211. The bevel part 2121 can disperse the stress at the weld seam 22, thus avoiding the generation of cracks at the weld seam 22.

[0028] Furthermore, the connection part between the first bottom wall 212 and the second bottom wall 213 is the connection part 214. The connection part 214 is between the solder joint part 204 and the bottom 203 in the axial direction. That is, the connection part 214 exceeds the position where the solder joint part 204 is located in the axial direction, and the slope of the second bottom wall 213 is smaller than the slope of the first bottom wall 212.

[0029] Furthermore, the connection part 214 is arranged towards the solder joint part 204. In this way, the first bottom wall 212 can surround the periphery of the solder joint part 204. This can increase the thickness of the body part 20 between the solder joint part 204 and the first bottom wall 212, thus preventing the first bottom wall 212 from being welded through during welding. The first bottom wall 212 is connected to the top 202 and is also connected to the outer side wall 201 of the solder joint part 204.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, the first bottom wall 212 has a part of a concave arc wall 2121 and a part of a convex arc wall 2122. The concave arc wall 2121 and the convex arc wall 2122 are smoothly connected, and both the concave arc wall 2121 and the convex arc wall 2122 are in smooth transition. The hydraulic pressure is specifically concentrated on the concave arc wall 2121, greatly dispersing the stress at the weld seam 22, and further being able to avoid the generation of weld seam 22 cracks and improving the service life.

[0031] The convex arc wall 2122 is connected to the top 202 of the end cover 2, and the convex arc wall 2122 surrounds the solder joint part 204. The convex arc wall 2122 and the body part 20 form a surrounding part 2123 with respect to the solder joint part 204. During the welding process, it is inevitable to generate welding beads. The convex arc wall 2122 can guide the welding beads to remain in the surrounding part 2123, avoiding the welding beads from damaging the seal 100.

[0032] In other embodiments, the bottom wall of the bevel part 2121 can also be in the form of a superior arc, or other forms that can form the annular groove 211.

[0033] In the present invention, specific embodiments are used to elaborate on the principles and implementation manners of the present invention. The descriptions of the above embodiments are only used to help understand the method of the present invention and its core idea; at the same time, for those of ordinary skill in the art, according to the idea of the present invention, there will be changes in the specific implementation manners and application scopes. In summary, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention.
