Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of spring, and particularly relates to a guide device for a ring spring set. BACKGROUND

[0002] The ring spring is composed of an outer ring and an inner ring with matching conical surfaces. When the ring spring bears axial load, the inner ring is compressed and its diameter is reduced, and the outer ring is stretched and its diameter is expanded. The inner and outer rings slide along the conical surface to produce axial deformation, thereby playing a spring role. Because the friction force is large when the ring spring is working, the friction force hinders the recovery of the spring deformation when unloaded, so that the stiffness curves of loading and unloading do not coincide, thereby forming hysteresis. The hysteresis energy consumption can reach 60% to 70% of the work done during loading, that is, the ring spring has strong buffering and damping capacity, the energy storage capacity of unit volume of material is larger than that of other types of springs, and the economy is better. Therefore, the ring spring is particularly suitable for places where the space size is limited and a large amount of energy needs to be absorbed, and places where strong buffering is required. Therefore, the ring spring is widely used in large pipeline hangers, vibration support and buffering occasions.

[0003] In actual application process, the length of the matching conical surfaces of the outer ring and the inner ring of the ring spring in free state and initial assembly is extremely short, the length-diameter ratio is only 0.06 to 0.09, and the conical angle β is 12° to 30°. According to the fixture positioning theory, the positioning of the inner ring to the outer ring belongs to short taper pin positioning. The inner ring only limits the three movement degrees of freedom of the outer ring, and the two tilt degrees of freedom in the axial direction cannot be positioned and limited. Therefore, in the free state and initial assembly, the two tilt degrees of freedom in the axial direction between the outer ring and the inner ring cannot be positioned and limited by the matching conical surfaces, so that the coaxiality of the outer ring and the inner ring cannot be ensured.

[0004] In order to prevent lateral imbalance, the ring spring is generally installed on a guide cylinder or a guide mandrel. When the ring spring bears axial load, the inner ring is compressed and its diameter is reduced, and the outer ring is stretched and its diameter is expanded. Therefore, a tightly fitted guide cylinder cannot be used to guide and position the outer cylindrical surface of the outer ring, and a tightly fitted guide mandrel cannot be used to guide and position the hole of the inner ring. According to the recommendation of the ring spring design section of the mechanical design manual, a certain gap should be left between the spring and the guide device, and the value of the gap can be about 2% of the diameter of the inner ring hole. According to the positioning limit deviation calculated by the gap value, according to the lower limit of the height-diameter ratio recommended value, the inner and outer rings will have a tilt limit deviation of ±3.91° in the axial direction, and according to the upper limit of the height-diameter ratio recommended value, the inner and outer rings will have a tilt limit deviation of ±5.64° in the axial direction, resulting in a relative limit deviation of the inner and outer rings of ±7.82° to ±11.28°.

[0005] Because the positioning accuracy of the existing guide cylinder to the annular spring group is poor, the axial inclination angle between the inner and outer rings is too large, the contact area between the inner and outer rings is small, and the conical angle of the contact surface is small, which causes the deformation of the inner and outer rings to be uneven during compression. When the conical angle of the contact surface is smaller than the friction angle, the displacement jump caused by breaking through the static friction during compression will lead to a non-smooth and continuous stiffness curve, and the annular spring will be self-locked after unloading, and cannot be rebounded. In work, there are often occasions that require complete unloading of the annular spring, at this time, the inner and outer rings are not pre-tightened and constrained relative to each other, and when compressed again, the annular spring is prone to self-locking after unloading due to the decrease of the conical angle of the contact surface, and cannot be rebounded. Especially in the application occasion that the annular spring group needs to be placed obliquely, the inner and outer rings are more likely to be inclined to each other, the annular spring cannot be rebounded and separated after compression, and cannot be used again, which increases the production cost and greatly limits the wide application of the annular spring.

[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a guide device that can adapt to the diameter change of the inner and outer rings of the annular spring group during compression and rebounding, and can continuously provide good guiding and positioning capability for the inner and outer rings. SUMMARY

[0007] The purpose of the present application is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a guide device for an annular spring group.

[0008] The technical scheme adopted by the present application is as follows:

[0009] A guide device for an annular spring group, which comprises a guide mandrel arranged on the axis of the annular spring group and a guide cylinder sleeved on the outside of the annular spring group, the lower bottom surface of the guide mandrel is fixed with a base, the side surface of the base is in close contact with the inner surface of the guide cylinder and is fixedly connected, the top of the guide cylinder is covered with a compression cover, the guide mandrel, the guide cylinder, the base and the compression cover jointly form a cavity for accommodating the annular spring group, the side wall of the guide mandrel is provided with three or more guide positioning strips in the circumferential direction, two or more guide positioning frames are movably arranged between the guide cylinder and the outer ring of the annular spring group, the guide positioning frame is a V-shaped elastic plate structure, and the V-shaped opening of the guide positioning frame faces the annular spring group.

[0010] Further, the side wall of the guide mandrel is provided with a plurality of key grooves for mounting the guide positioning strips in the circumferential direction, and a elastic support strip is arranged between the key groove and the guide positioning strip.

[0011] In a specific scheme, the compression cover is an annular groove body with an opening facing downward, which comprises an annular cover top and two vertically erected outer and inner ring columns, the inner surface of the outer ring column is in close contact with the outer surface of the guide cylinder, and the bottom surface of the inner ring column abuts against the top of the inner ring of the annular spring group.

[0012] In a preferred solution, when the elastic support strip is in a free state, the diameter of the circumscribed circle formed by the guide positioning strips on the guide mandrel is greater than the hole diameter of the inner ring of the annular spring set, and when the elastic support strip is in an extreme compression state, the diameter of the circumscribed circle formed by the guide positioning strips on the guide mandrel is less than 95% of the hole diameter of the inner ring of the annular spring set.

[0013] Specifically, the guide positioning frame includes two side wings arranged in a V shape, and the top of the side wing is provided with an outwardly inclined winglet.

[0014] In the device, the height of the inner ring column is greater than the compression stroke of the annular spring set, the outer diameter of the inner ring column is less than the outer diameter of the outer ring of the annular spring set, and the hole diameter of the inner ring column is greater than the hole diameter of the inner ring of the annular spring set.

[0015] Preferably, the number of guide positioning strips is four, and they are arranged equidistantly in the circumferential direction along the side wall of the guide mandrel.

[0016] Preferably, the number of guide positioning frames is four, and they are arranged equidistantly between the guide mandrel and the guide cylinder.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the present application are:

[0018] The present application has the advantages of simple structure and ingenious design. The guide positioning frame arranged between the guide cylinder and the outer ring of the annular spring set realizes the axial two-tilt-degree-of-freedom guiding and positioning of the outer ring of the annular spring set. The elastic support strip and the guide positioning strip arranged on the guide mandrel realize the axial two-tilt-degree-of-freedom guiding and positioning of the inner ring of the annular spring set. The elastic deformation of the two side wings of the guide positioning frame automatically adapts to the diameter change of the outer ring of the annular spring set during the compression and rebound process. The winglet at the top of the guide positioning strip can guide the outer ring of the annular spring set into the device. The elastic deformation of the elastic support strip automatically adapts to the diameter change of the inner ring of the annular spring set during the compression and rebound process. Therefore, it can adapt to the diameter change of the inner and outer rings of the annular spring set during the compression and rebound process, and can continuously provide good guiding and positioning for the inner and outer rings, ensuring that the inner and outer rings do not produce relative tilt along the axial direction, completely eliminating the problems of small contact area and small conical angle of the contact surface caused by assembly, complete unloading and reloading, horizontal placement and gravity deflection, etc., ensuring that the annular spring does not produce self-locking after unloading to realize free rebound, solving the problem of non-smooth and continuous stiffness curve. The compression cover and the guide cylinder cooperate with each other to realize the overall covering of the annular spring set, which can effectively prevent dust and dirt from polluting the conical surface of the annular spring set, thereby reducing the wear of the annular spring set during the working process and prolonging the service life.

The guide positioning frame 6 is made of a 65Mn steel plate with elasticity after bending and heat treatment, and the number of the guide positioning frame 6 is four, which are placed uniformly.
