Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of air suspension for drive axle, in particular to trailer air suspension and its unloading arm. BACKGROUND

[0002] The function of the suspension device of the vehicle is to reduce the oscillation caused by poor road conditions, and to enhance the adhesion of the vehicle to the ground when the vehicle is turning sharply or braking sharply. The air suspension has the advantages of low stiffness, non-linear stiffness, adjustable stiffness, adjustable height, light weight and low noise. Due to the above advantages, the air suspension is more and more widely used in various vehicles.

[0003] In the prior art, two sets of air suspensions are generally installed on each axle (or axle), and two brackets of the two sets of air suspensions are respectively connected vertically to different positions of the axle. Each bracket has a Z-shaped longitudinal section that is perpendicular to the width direction of the bracket and divides the bracket. On the one hand, in order to improve the roll stiffness of the air suspension and reduce the risk of rollover, the distance between the longitudinal symmetry axes of the two brackets should be as large as possible, that is, the bracket should be as close as possible to the outer wheel, that is, the Z-shaped longitudinal section should be as close as possible to the outer wheel. On the other hand, the arm of the air suspension in most of the prior art is made by rolling and bending process, and the width of the arm is consistent, so it cannot have a complex shape. Since the size of the air bag that meets the requirements is generally larger than the width of the bracket that meets the requirements along the width direction of the bracket, in order to prevent the air bag from touching the wheel, two air bag mounting schemes are generally used. The first air bag mounting scheme is to increase the width of the bracket, and the mounting position of the air bag is on the Z-shaped longitudinal section of the bracket. The second air bag mounting scheme is to change the mounting position of the air bag without changing the bracket and the air bag, and the mounting position of the air bag deviates from the Z-shaped longitudinal section of the bracket, and the air bag is connected to the bracket through a bag connecting plate. The first air bag mounting scheme will increase the overall volume and weight of the air suspension, and increase the cost. The second air bag mounting scheme is the commonly used air bag mounting scheme, which will cause the unloading of the bracket, which will cause the decrease of the safety factor of the bracket, the roll of the air bag, the folding of the air bag, and the like. The service life of the bracket is affected, and the piston of the air bag is required to be higher. How to balance the minimization of the volume and weight of the air suspension, the minimization of the cost, the maximization of the safety factor, and the maximization of the service life is a technical problem to be solved in the field.

[0052] The following is a comparison between the present application and the prior art:

[0053] The prior art 13-ton semi-trailer suspension has a total of 23 types and 34 parts (including bolts and nuts) on one side, and the air bag is offset by 80 mm. In order to ensure the structural strength, thicker and wider brackets need to be used, an air bag connecting plate is needed below the air bag, and a steel piston with higher strength needs to be selected for the air bag.

[0054] The unloading supporting arm of the present application has a total of 16 types and 27 parts (including bolts and nuts), and the air bag is not subjected to unloading force. The service life of the air bag, bracket and the like can be effectively improved.

[0055] Compared with the 13-ton structure scheme in the prior art, the forged bracket scheme has fewer parts, simpler assembly, and relatively shorter production rhythm. The relatively simple system structure has a relatively reduced probability of abnormality. The fewer parts can also reduce the pressure of inventory spare parts. The disadvantage of the forged bracket scheme is that the left and right unloading supporting arms cannot be used universally, two sets of symmetrical molds need to be made, and the development cost is relatively high in the early stage.

[0056] The same simulation operation is performed on the unloading supporting arm (hereinafter referred to as the forged bracket) and the prior art bracket (hereinafter referred to as the existing 13-ton bracket), and the strength is checked according to the 13-ton axle. By comparing the stress distribution results, the advantages and disadvantages of the two schemes are determined.

[0057] According to the calculation of the axle load of 13 tons, the forged bracket grid adopts C3D10 unit, the first bracket arm free end displacement degree of freedom is constrained, and the rotation degree of freedom is released; the air bag Y direction displacement degree of freedom is constrained, and other degrees of freedom are released; 6 kinds of working conditions are analyzed; 1, only 200KN bolt pretightening force is applied; 2, 25KN (1.4 times loading) is applied to the shock absorber bolt oblique side; 3, 130KN (2 times safety factor) is applied vertically; 4, 65KN (1 times safety factor) is applied vertically, and 65KN (2.5 times safety factor) is applied laterally; 5, 65KN (1 times safety factor) is applied vertically, and-65KN (2.5 times safety factor) is applied laterally; 6, the axle position is constrained, and 50KN downward force is applied to the first bracket arm free end, and the bracket front and back stiffness changes are compared through the free end center displacement.

[0058] The working condition 1 above, the maximum stress of the forged bracket using U-shaped bolt is located inside the fillet, the tensile stress is 869MPa, which meets the use requirements; the stress position of the existing 13-ton suspension U-shaped bolt is also inside the fillet, the tensile stress is 833.8MPa, which meets the use requirements of 10.9 grade bolt;

[0059] The working condition 1 above, the maximum stress of the forged bracket under the U-shaped bolt 200KN bolt pretightening force is located in the inner fillet of the weight-reducing groove, the maximum tensile stress is 282MPa; which is far less than the yield strength of spring steel 1300MPa, and meets the use requirements; the working condition 1 above, the maximum stress of the existing 13-ton bracket under the U-shaped bolt 200KN bolt pretightening force is located inside the bolt positioning hole, the tensile stress is 314MPa; which is far less than the yield strength of spring steel 1300MPa, and meets the use requirements;

[0060] The working condition 2 above, the forged bracket under the 25KN oblique tension of the shock absorber, the local maximum stress is located at the machining fillet, the maximum tensile stress is 312MPa; which is far less than the yield strength of spring steel 1300MPa, and meets the use requirements; the working condition 2 above, the existing 13-ton bracket under the 25KN oblique tension of the shock absorber, the tensile stress of the I-beam lower side is 581MPa; which has exceeded the tensile strength of the material ZG500 500MPa, the safety factor is low, and the fatigue life is short.

[0061] The working condition 3 above, the forged bracket under the vertical stress of 130KN, the maximum stress is located at the fillet of the weight-reducing groove side, the maximum tensile stress is 708MPa; the stress of the corresponding position of the conventional 13-ton bracket bending dangerous area is only 489MPa; which is less than the yield strength of spring steel 1300MPa, and meets the use requirements; the working condition 3 above, the existing 13-ton bracket under the vertical stress of 130KN, the maximum stress is located inside the free end, the tensile stress is 773MPa; the tensile stress of the bending area is 712MPa; which is less than the yield strength of spring steel 1300MPa, and meets the use requirements.

[0065] Through the above multi-working condition stress comparison, the maximum stress of the forged bracket scheme is obviously reduced, and the stress in the bending danger area is reduced by about 30%;

[0066] According to the above comparison results, the overall stress of the forged bracket arm is reduced, the same material can have a higher safety factor and service life, or a low-cost material with reduced performance can meet the original use effect.

For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or variations can be made on the basis of the above description. Here, all the embodiments are not required to be exhausted.
