Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0030] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.
[0031] Reference Figures 1-4 The present application provides a magnetorheological buffer structure for heavy load impact, comprising:
[0032] A cylinder body;
[0033] A piston body for sliding relative to the cylinder body along the cylinder body axis direction in the cylinder body, and the cylinder body and the piston body are filled with a magnetic liquid 3;
[0034] Two axial magnetization permanent magnets 5, which are respectively arranged on the piston body and the cylinder body, the axial magnetization permanent magnet 5 on the piston body moves towards or away from the other axial magnetization permanent magnet 5 through the piston body, and the opposite faces of the two axial magnetization permanent magnets 5 repel each other;
[0035] A radial magnetization permanent magnet 6, which is sleeved on the piston body, forms a damping flow channel between the radial magnetization permanent magnet 6 and the inner wall of the cylinder body, and the magnetic liquid 3 flows in the damping flow channel during the relative movement of the piston body relative to the cylinder body;
[0036] Among them, the axial magnetization permanent magnet 5 and the radial magnetization permanent magnet 6 both adsorb the magnetic liquid 3.
[0037] The magnetic liquid 3 is adsorbed on the outer wall of the axially magnetized permanent magnet 5 and the radially magnetized permanent magnet 6 under the magnetic field of the axially magnetized permanent magnet 5 and the radially magnetized permanent magnet 6. On the one hand, the magnetic liquid 3 adsorbed on the surface of the radially magnetized permanent magnet 6 can avoid the direct contact between the piston body and the inner wall of the cylinder body and increase the damping effect. On the other hand, the magnetic liquid 3 adsorbed on the surface of the axially magnetized permanent magnet 5 can avoid the collision between the two axially magnetized permanent magnets 5 when the impact force is too large.
[0038] The magnetic liquid 3 used in the application can have a magneto-rheological effect under the magnetic field, and the damping force of the magnetic liquid 3 can be greatly enhanced, so that the impact buffering stroke can be greatly reduced. In the backflow process, the magnetic liquid 3 generates a damping force, so that the reset speed of the buffering device is reduced, the buffering device is reset stably, and secondary collision between the buffering device and the mechanical structure caused by too fast reset speed is avoided. Compared with the prior art, the design structure of the application is simpler and more reasonable, and is easier to process and realize.
[0039] The repulsion between the axially magnetized permanent magnets 5 can reset the buffering device. In particular, when used in an underwater environment, the repulsion between the axially magnetized permanent magnets 5 can also balance the external pressure when working underwater.

The two ends of the shaft sleeve 7 are in abutment with the piston rod 2 and the axially magnetized permanent magnet 5, respectively. The two ends of the radially magnetized permanent magnet 6 are in abutment with the shaft sleeve 7 and the axially magnetized permanent magnet 5, respectively.

[0049] The elastic body 1 is made of rubber material. The elastic body 1 is arranged as a collision surface and is made of soft material, so that the impact force peak value of collision and the noise generated by collision are reduced,
[0050] Further optimization scheme, the piston rod 2 is tightly connected with the elastic body 1 through the sealing ring arranged in the third sealing ring groove 1.1 formed on the piston rod 2.

[0052] The guide ring can guide the movement of the piston rod 2 and ensure the concentricity of the piston rod 2 and the cylinder barrel 4, thereby ensuring the reliability of the buffer device.
[0053] Further optimization scheme, a plurality of variable annular slits 3.5 for throttling and buffering the magnetic liquid 3 are formed on the inner wall of the cylinder barrel 4 along the circumferential direction of the cylinder barrel 4; a plurality of first threaded holes 3.1 are formed on the flange at the opening end of the cylinder barrel 4, and a plurality of second threaded holes 3.3 are formed on the flange at the closed end of the cylinder barrel 4; the axial magnetization permanent magnet 5 is fixedly connected with the inner wall of the cylinder barrel 4 through the positioning pin 3.2; the axial magnetization permanent magnet 5 is fixedly connected with the inner wall of the cylinder barrel 4 through the internal hexagonal countersunk head screw 1.4, and a matching fixing groove 3.4 is formed on the inner wall of the cylinder barrel 4.

[0055] The end cover 8 and the cylinder barrel 4 can be fixedly connected through the hexagonal bolt and the hexagonal nut.
[0056] Reference Figure 5The specific working principle and implementation process of the present application are as follows:
[0057] The initial state of the present application is shown in Figure a. Figure 5 As shown in Figure a, the piston rod 2 is in contact with the end cover 8, and the working cavity is filled with magnetic liquid 3. When the elastic body 1 of the moving end is impacted by a heavy load F, the elastic body 1 is elastically deformed under the impact force to absorb part of the impact energy and move in the direction of the heavy load F. At the same time, since the piston rod 2 is fixedly connected with the elastic body 1, the piston body starts to move into the working cavity of the cylinder body under the impact force, extruding the magnetic liquid 3, and the magnetic liquid 3 near the bottom of the cylinder barrel 4 flows reversely through the damping flow gap between the piston body and the inner wall of the cylinder barrel 4, generating a damping force in the process to achieve the buffering effect. When the piston body moves to the variable annular gap 3.5, the throttling buffering effect is enhanced, and at the same time, as the piston body approaches the bottom of the cylinder barrel 4, the distance between the axially magnetized permanent magnets 5 decreases, and the repulsive force between the magnets increases, until the repulsive force between the magnets balances with the residual force of the external impact force, and the buffering process ends. The final state of the present application is shown in Figure b. Figure 5
[0058] When the impact force disappears, the piston body is pushed to return to the initial position shown in Figure a under the repulsive force of the axially magnetized permanent magnets 5, and at the same time, the elastic body 1 returns to its original state. In the resetting process, the magnetic liquid 3 flows from the side close to the end cover 8 to the side close to the bottom of the cylinder barrel 4 through the damping flow gap, generating a damping force in the process to reduce the resetting speed of the buffering device, achieve smooth resetting, avoid secondary collision between the buffering device and the mechanical structure due to excessive resetting speed, and stop moving until the piston body is in contact with the end cover 8, and the entire buffering device returns to the initial state.
