[0015] The automobile electric tailgate support rod of the present invention comprises a first telescopic rod group, a second telescopic rod group, a limit assembly and a return spring.
[0016] The first telescopic rod group includes a first telescopic rod, a first driving member, a second driving member, a limiting column and a threaded rod.
[0017] The first telescopic rod group is slidably connected to the second telescopic rod group.
[0018] The limiting assembly is sleeved on the threaded rod, and the limiting assembly comprises a first limiting slip ring and a second limiting slip ring.
[0019] The first telescopic rod can switch between the extended position and the retracted position relative to the second telescopic rod group. Specifically, take the first limit slip ring and the threaded rod as an example. The second driving member drives the limit assembly to work so that the first limit slip ring cooperates with the threaded rod. The first driving member drives the threaded rod to rotate along the first direction, so as to drive the limit assembly to move in the direction away from the first driving member through the first limit slip ring that cooperates with the threaded rod, so that the first telescopic rod is separated from the second telescopic rod group and moves to the extended position. At the same time, the second limit slip ring that is not matched with the threaded rod will also move in the direction away from the first driving member. The first driving member drives the threaded rod to rotate along the second direction, so as to drive the limit assembly to move toward the first driving member through the first limit slip ring that cooperates with the threaded rod. Under the action of the reset spring of the electric tailgate support rod of the automobile, the first telescopic rod moves to the retracted position relative to the second telescopic rod group. At the same time, the second limit slip ring that is not matched with the threaded rod will also move in the direction of the first driving member.
[0020] Furthermore, a plurality of limit posts are provided in the first telescopic rod, and the plurality of limit posts are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the threaded rod, and each limit post extends along the axial direction of the threaded rod. The limit assembly is slidably connected to the limit post, and the limit assembly is movably connected to the threaded rod. The limit assembly includes a first limit slip ring and a second limit slip ring. The first limit slip ring is provided with a positive pressure oil chamber and a negative pressure oil chamber, the positive pressure oil chamber is connected to the limit post, and the negative pressure oil chamber is connected to the limit post. The second limit slip ring is provided with a positive pressure oil chamber and a negative pressure oil chamber, the positive pressure oil chamber is connected to the limit post, and the negative pressure oil chamber is connected to the limit post.
[0021] When the first telescopic rod switches between the extended position and the retracted position, one of the first limit slip ring and the second limit slip ring can apply oil to a part of the limit posts among the multiple limit posts through the positive pressure oil chamber, and the other of the first limit slip ring and the second limit slip ring can absorb oil from another part of the limit posts among the multiple limit posts through the negative pressure oil chamber. That is, the positive pressure oil chamber of the first limit slip ring can apply oil to the limit post, and the negative pressure oil chamber of the second limit slip ring can absorb oil from the limit post. Or the positive pressure oil chamber of the second limit slip ring can apply oil to the limit post, and the negative pressure oil chamber of the first limit slip ring can absorb oil from the limit post.
[0022] When the frequency of use of the electric tailgate support rod of the automobile is high, oil is applied to a part of the plurality of limit posts through the positive pressure oil chamber of one of the first limit slip ring and the second limit slip ring, and another part of the plurality of limit posts is in an unoiled state. In other words, only a part of the plurality of limit posts is in an oiled state, and the limit posts coated with lubricating oil have the function of slidingly cooperating with the limit assembly to guide the limit assembly, so as to meet the use requirements of the first telescopic rod switching between the extended position and the retracted position.
[0023] Whether the other of the first limiting slip ring and the second limiting slip ring absorbs oil from the limiting column depends on whether the lubricating oil on the limiting column is deteriorated.
[0024] When the support rod of the electric tailgate of the automobile has not been used for a long time, the position of the first telescopic rod can be switched (i.e., the extended position and the retracted position) and combined with the working mode of the second driving member, so that one of the first limiting slip ring and the second limiting slip ring can suck the waste oil from the limiting column coated with the waste oil, and the other of the first limiting slip ring and the second limiting slip ring can apply oil to the limiting column not coated with the lubricating oil.
[0025] Take the example of four limit posts. The four limit posts are respectively recorded as the first limit post, the second limit post, the third limit post and the fourth limit post, and the first limit post and the fourth limit post are coated with lubricating oil. When the electric tailgate support rod of the automobile has not been used for a long time, the positive pressure oil chamber of the first limit slip ring can be switched to apply oil to the second limit post and the third limit post by switching the position of the first telescopic rod (i.e., the extended position and the retracted position) and combining the working mode of the second driving member, and the negative pressure oil chamber of the second limit slip ring can absorb oil from the first limit post and the fourth limit post to absorb the waste oil at the first limit post and the fourth limit post. At this time, the limit posts that cooperate with the limit assembly are switched from the first limit post and the fourth limit post to the second limit post and the third limit post.
[0026] In this way, the lubricating oil at the limit column of the guide limit assembly is always in a normal use state, which can avoid the situation where the limit assembly is stuck at a certain place of the limit column due to poor lubrication effect caused by the deterioration of the lubricating oil. The smoothness of the sliding connection between the limit assembly and the limit column can be ensured, so that the first telescopic rod can effectively and smoothly switch between the extended position and the retracted position. This setting enables the limit assembly to not only provide structural support for the first telescopic rod to switch between the extended position and the retracted position, but also has the function of coating and replacing new lubricating oil on the limit column, enriching the function of the limit assembly and improving the performance of the product.
[0027] It can be understood that the second driving member is used to drive the limiting assembly to work so that one of the first limiting slip ring and the second limiting slip ring cooperates with the threaded rod. That is, the first limiting slip ring or the second limiting slip ring that cooperates with the threaded rod is a force-bearing member, and the second limiting slip ring or the first limiting slip ring that does not cooperate with the threaded rod is a non-force-bearing member. Therefore, the working time of the first limiting slip ring and the second limiting slip ring can be balanced by switching the force-bearing member, which is conducive to extending the service life of the first limiting slip ring and the second limiting slip ring, and further helps to reduce the frequency of repair and maintenance of the electric tailgate support rod of the automobile.

[0045] In this embodiment, the automobile electric tailgate support rod 10 includes a first telescopic rod group 100 , a second telescopic rod group 200 , a limit assembly 300 and a return spring 500 .
[0046] The first telescopic rod assembly 100 includes a first telescopic rod 110 , a first driving member 120 , a second driving member 130 , a limiting column 150 and a threaded rod 140 .
[0047] The first telescopic rod set 100 is slidably connected to the second telescopic rod set 200 .
[0048] The limiting assembly 300 is sleeved on the threaded rod 140 , and the limiting assembly 300 includes a first limiting slip ring 310 and a second limiting slip ring 320 .
[0049] The first telescopic rod 110 can switch between an extended position and a retracted position relative to the second telescopic rod group 200. Specifically, take the cooperation between the first limit slip ring 310 and the threaded rod 140 as an example. The second driving member 130 drives the limit assembly 300 to work so that the first limit slip ring 310 cooperates with the threaded rod 140. The first driving member 120 drives the threaded rod 140 to rotate along the first direction, so as to drive the limit assembly 300 to move in a direction away from the first driving member 120 through the first limit slip ring 310 that cooperates with the threaded rod 140, so that the first telescopic rod 110 is separated from the second telescopic rod group 200 and moves to the extended position. At the same time, the second limit slip ring 320 that is not cooperated with the threaded rod 140 will also move in a direction away from the first driving member 120. The first driving member 120 drives the threaded rod 140 to rotate along the second direction, so as to drive the limiting assembly 300 to move toward the first driving member 120 through the first limiting slip ring 310 matched with the threaded rod 140. Under the action of the return spring 500 of the automobile electric tailgate support rod 10, the first telescopic rod 110 moves to a retracted position relative to the second telescopic rod assembly 200. At the same time, the second limiting slip ring 320 that is not matched with the threaded rod 140 will also move toward the direction of the first driving member 120.
[0050] Further, a plurality of limiting posts 150 are provided in the first telescopic rod 110, and the plurality of limiting posts 150 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the threaded rod 140, and each limiting post 150 extends along the axial direction of the threaded rod 140. The limiting assembly 300 is slidably connected to the limiting post 150, and the limiting assembly 300 is movably connected to the threaded rod 140. The limiting assembly 300 includes a first limiting slip ring 310 and a second limiting slip ring 320. The first limiting slip ring 310 is provided with a positive pressure oil chamber 332 and a negative pressure oil chamber 334, the positive pressure oil chamber 332 is communicated with the limiting post 150, and the negative pressure oil chamber 334 is communicated with the limiting post 150. The second limiting slip ring 320 is provided with a positive pressure oil chamber 332 and a negative pressure oil chamber 334, the positive pressure oil chamber 332 is communicated with the limiting post 150, and the negative pressure oil chamber 334 is communicated with the limiting post 150.
[0051] When the first telescopic rod 110 switches between the extended position and the retracted position, one of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 can apply oil to a part of the limiting posts 150 among the plurality of limiting posts 150 through the positive pressure oil chamber 332, and the other of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 can absorb oil from another part of the limiting posts 150 among the plurality of limiting posts 150 through the negative pressure oil chamber 334. That is, the positive pressure oil chamber 332 of the first limiting slip ring 310 can apply oil to the limiting posts 150, and the negative pressure oil chamber 334 of the second limiting slip ring 320 can absorb oil from the limiting posts 150.

[0052] When the use frequency of the electric tailgate support rod 10 of the automobile is high, oil is applied to a part of the plurality of limit posts 150 through the positive pressure oil chamber 332 of one of the first limit slip ring 310 and the second limit slip ring 320, and another part of the plurality of limit posts 150 is in an unoiled state. In other words, only a part of the plurality of limit posts 150 is in an oiled state, and the limit posts 150 coated with lubricating oil have the function of slidingly cooperating with the limit assembly 300 to guide the limit assembly 300, so as to meet the use requirements of the first telescopic rod 110 switching between the extended position and the retracted position.
[0053] Whether the other of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 absorbs oil from the limiting column 150 depends on whether the lubricating oil on the limiting column 150 deteriorates. When the electric tailgate support rod 10 of the automobile is not used for a long time, by switching the position of the first telescopic rod 110 (i.e., the extended position and the retracted position) and combining the working mode of the second driving member 130, one of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 can absorb waste oil from the limiting column 150 coated with waste oil, and the other of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 can apply oil to the limiting column 150 not coated with lubricating oil.
[0054] like Figure 5As shown, the number of the limiting posts 150 is four for example. The four limiting posts 150 are respectively recorded as the first limiting post 1501, the second limiting post 1502, the third limiting post 1503 and the fourth limiting post 1504, and the first limiting post 1501 and the fourth limiting post 1504 are coated with lubricating oil. When the electric tailgate support rod 10 of the automobile is not used for a long time, the positive pressure oil chamber 332 of the first limiting slip ring 310 can be oiled to the second limiting post 1502 and the third limiting post 1503 by switching the position of the first telescopic rod 110 (i.e., the extended position and the retracted position) and combining the working mode of the second driving member 130, and the negative pressure oil chamber 334 of the second limiting slip ring 320 absorbs oil from the first limiting post 1501 and the fourth limiting post 1504, so as to absorb the waste oil at the first limiting post 1501 and the fourth limiting post 1504.
[0055] In this way, the lubricating oil at the limiting column 150 of the guiding limiting assembly 300 is always in a normal use state, which can avoid the situation where the limiting assembly 300 is stuck at a certain position of the limiting column 150 due to the deterioration of the lubricating oil and the poor lubrication effect. The smoothness of the sliding connection between the limiting assembly 300 and the limiting column 150 can be ensured, so that the first telescopic rod 110 can be effectively and smoothly switched between the extended position and the retracted position. This setting enables the limiting assembly 300 to not only provide structural support for the switching of the first telescopic rod 110 between the extended position and the retracted position, but also has the function of coating and replacing new lubricating oil on the limiting column 150, enriching the function of the limiting assembly 300 and improving the performance of the product.
[0056] It is understandable that the second driving member 130 is used to drive the limiting assembly 300 to work so that one of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 cooperates with the threaded rod 140. That is, the first limiting slip ring 310 or the second limiting slip ring 320 that cooperates with the threaded rod 140 is a force-bearing member, and the second limiting slip ring 320 or the first limiting slip ring 310 that does not cooperate with the threaded rod 140 is a non-force-bearing member. Therefore, the working time of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 can be balanced by switching the force-bearing member, which is conducive to extending the service life of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320, and further conducive to reducing the repair and maintenance frequency of the automobile electric tailgate support rod 10.
[0057] In some embodiments, Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Fig.10As shown, the first limit slip ring 310 and the second limit slip ring 320 both include: a ring body 330, the ring body 330 is provided with a positive pressure oil chamber 332 and a negative pressure oil chamber 334; a sliding limit column 340, which is slidably connected to the ring body 330. When the second driving member 130 drives the limit assembly 300 to work, the sliding limit column 340 of one of the first limit slip ring 310 and the second limit slip ring 320 is abutted against the spiral groove of the threaded rod 140, and the sliding limit column 340 of the other of the first limit slip ring 310 and the second limit slip ring 320 is separated from the threaded rod 140.
[0058] In this embodiment, the structures of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 are further defined.
[0059] The first limiting slip ring 310 includes a ring body 330 and a sliding limiting column 340. The ring body 330 is sleeved on the threaded rod 140. The ring body 330 is provided with a positive pressure oil chamber 332 and a negative pressure oil chamber 334. The sliding limiting column 340 is slidably connected to the ring body 330. The second limiting slip ring 320 includes a ring body 330 and a sliding limiting column 340. The ring body 330 is sleeved on the threaded rod 140. The ring body 330 is provided with a positive pressure oil chamber 332 and a negative pressure oil chamber 334. The sliding limiting column 340 is slidably connected to the ring body 330.
[0060] When the second driving member 130 drives the limiting assembly 300 to work, it can adjust the setting position of the sliding limiting column 340 and the ring body 330, adjust the setting position of the sliding limiting column 340 and the threaded rod 140 of the first limiting slip ring 310, so that the sliding limiting column 340 of the first limiting slip ring 310 abuts against the spiral groove of the threaded rod 140, and adjust the setting position of the sliding limiting column 340 and the threaded rod 140 of the second limiting slip ring 320, so that the sliding limiting column 340 of the second limiting slip ring 320 is separated from the threaded rod 140.
[0061] Alternatively, when the second driving member 130 drives the limiting assembly 300 to work, it is able to adjust the setting positions of the sliding limiting column 340 and the ring body 330, adjust the setting positions of the sliding limiting column 340 and the threaded rod 140 of the second limiting slip ring 320, so that the sliding limiting column 340 of the second limiting slip ring 320 abuts against the spiral groove of the threaded rod 140, and adjust the setting positions of the sliding limiting column 340 and the threaded rod 140 of the first limiting slip ring 310, so that the sliding limiting column 340 of the first limiting slip ring 310 is separated from the threaded rod 140.
[0062] This is to meet the requirement that the first limiting slip ring 310 or the second limiting slip ring 320 abutting against the spiral groove of the threaded rod 140 is a force-bearing member, and the second limiting slip ring 320 or the first limiting slip ring 310 not matched with the threaded rod 140 is a non-force-bearing member.
[0063] In some embodiments, Figure 5As shown, the number of the limiting posts 150 is N, and the N limiting posts 150 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the threaded rod 140; the outer peripheral wall of the ring body 330 of the first limiting slip ring 310 is provided with N / 2 grooves 350 and N / 2 avoidance grooves 360, and the outer peripheral wall of the ring body 330 of the second limiting slip ring 320 is provided with N / 2 grooves 350 and N / 2 avoidance grooves 360, each groove 350 is slidably connected to a limiting post 150, each groove 350 of the first limiting slip ring 310 is arranged opposite to an avoidance groove 360 of the second limiting slip ring 320, and the avoidance groove 360 is used to avoid the limiting post 150; in the ring body 330, the positive pressure oil chamber 332 and the negative pressure oil chamber 334 are both connected to the groove 350; wherein N≥2×n, and n is a positive integer.
[0064] In this embodiment, the matching structure of N limiting pillars 150 , the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 is further defined.
[0065] The number of the limiting posts 150 is N, and the N limiting posts 150 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the threaded rod 140 .
[0066] The outer circumferential wall of the ring body 330 of the first limiting slip ring 310 is provided with N / 2 grooves 350 and N / 2 avoidance grooves 360, and the outer circumferential wall of the ring body 330 of the second limiting slip ring 320 is provided with N / 2 grooves 350 and N / 2 avoidance grooves 360. That is, the sum of the number of the grooves 350 of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the number of the grooves 350 of the second limiting slip ring 320 is equal to the number of the limiting posts 150. Similarly, the sum of the number of the avoidance grooves 360 of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the number of the avoidance grooves 360 of the second limiting slip ring 320 is equal to the number of the limiting posts 150.
[0067] Each groove 350 is slidably connected to a limiting column 150, and the groove 350 has the function of slidingly cooperating with the limiting column 150, and the groove 350 has the function of connecting the positive pressure oil chamber 332 and the limiting column 150, and the groove 350 also has the function of connecting the negative pressure oil chamber 334 and the limiting column 150. This arrangement can not only meet the use requirements of the limiting assembly 300 and the limiting column 150 being slidably connected, but also meet the use requirements of applying oil to the limiting column 150 and absorbing oil from the limiting column 150.
[0068] Among them, each groove 350 of the first limiting slip ring 310 is arranged opposite to an avoidance groove 360 of the second limiting slip ring 320, and the avoidance groove 360 has the function of avoiding the limiting column 150. That is, the groove 350 of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the groove 350 of the second limiting slide groove are arranged in a staggered manner. In this way, when the electric tailgate support rod 10 of the automobile is not used for a long time, it can meet the requirements of sucking waste oil from the limiting column 150 coated with waste oil by one of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320, and meet the requirements of applying oil to the limiting column 150 not coated with lubricating oil by the other of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320.
[0069] Alternatively, if Fig.10 As shown, the groove wall of the groove 350 is provided with a connecting gap 800 and an extended gap 900 , the connecting gap 800 is connected to the positive pressure oil chamber 332 , and the extended gap 900 is connected to the negative pressure oil chamber 334 .
[0070] N≥2×n, where n is a positive integer. Specifically, N=2, N=4, and N=6, etc. are not listed here one by one.
[0071] In some embodiments, Figure 8 As shown, the limit assembly 300 also includes: a limit sleeve 370, which is sleeved on the threaded rod 140, and the limit sleeve 370 is slidably connected to the threaded rod 140, the first limit slip ring 310 and the second limit slip ring 320 are both sleeved on the limit sleeve 370, the limit sleeve 370 is provided with a guide bevel 372, the guide bevel 372 passes through the outer wall and the inner wall of the limit sleeve 370, and the sliding limit column 340 is connected to the guide bevel 372; wherein, the second driving member 130 is used to drive the limit sleeve 370 to rotate, and the guide bevel 372 is used to drive the sliding limit column 340 to move relative to the ring body 330 when the limit sleeve 370 rotates.
[0072] In this embodiment, the structure of the limiting assembly 300 is further defined.
[0073] The limiting assembly 300 further includes a limiting sleeve 370 , which is sleeved on the threaded rod 140 and can move along the axial direction of the threaded rod 140 .
[0074] The first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 are both sleeved on the limiting sleeve 370 . When one of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 cooperates with the threaded rod 140 , the other of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 can move accordingly under the action of the limiting sleeve 370 .
[0075] The limiting sleeve 370 is provided with a guide bevel 372, which passes through the outer circumferential wall and the inner circumferential wall of the limiting sleeve 370, and the sliding limiting column 340 is connected to the guide bevel 372. The second driving member 130 drives the limiting sleeve 370 to rotate, the limiting sleeve 370 rotates, and the guide bevel 372 rotates accordingly, and the guide bevel 372 drives the sliding limiting column 340 to move relative to the ring body 330, so that the sliding limiting column 340 of one of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 is lifted, and the sliding limiting column 340 of the other of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 is lowered. The lowered sliding limiting column 340 is used to abut and cooperate with the spiral groove of the threaded rod 140, and can drive the limiting assembly 300 to move under the rotation of the threaded rod 140, so that the first telescopic rod 110 is separated from the second telescopic rod group 200 and moves to the extended position.
[0076] In this embodiment, the second driving member 130 is fixedly connected to the first telescopic rod 110 , and the second driving member 130 is detachably connected to the limiting assembly 300 .
[0077] In some other embodiments, the second driving member 130 is slidably connected to the first telescopic rod 110 , and the second driving member 130 can move along the axial direction of the threaded rod 140 along with the limiting assembly 300 .
[0078] Optionally, the number of the limiting posts 150 includes but is not limited to four, and may also be six, eight, etc., which are not listed here one by one.
[0079] In some embodiments, Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the first driving member 120 includes a first motor 122 and a planetary reducer 124, and the first motor 122 is connected to the threaded rod 140 through the planetary reducer 124; a bevel gear 374 is provided at one end of the limiting sleeve 370 away from the first driving member 120, and the second driving member 130 includes a second motor, and the output end of the second motor is meshed with the bevel gear 374.
[0080] In this embodiment, the structures of the first driving member 120 and the second driving member 130 are further defined.
[0081] The first driving member 120 includes a first motor 122 and a planetary reducer 124. The first motor 122 is connected to the threaded rod 140 via the planetary reducer 124. The first motor 122 is used to drive the threaded rod 140 to rotate.
[0082] The end of the limiting sleeve 370 away from the first driving member 120 is provided with a bevel gear 374. The second driving member 130 includes a second motor having an output end, and the output end of the second motor cooperates with the bevel gear 374 to achieve the purpose of driving the limiting sleeve 370 to rotate.
[0083] In some embodiments, when the first limit slip ring 310 cooperates with the threaded rod 140, oil can be applied to a portion of the multiple limit posts 150 through the positive pressure oil chamber 332 of the first limit slip ring 310; when the second limit slip ring 320 cooperates with the threaded rod 140, oil can be applied to a portion of the multiple limit posts 150 through the positive pressure oil chamber 332 of the second limit slip ring 320.
[0084] In this embodiment, the matching structure of the first limiting slip ring 310 , the second limiting slip ring 320 , the threaded rod 140 and the plurality of limiting posts 150 is further defined.
[0085] It can be understood that the limiting assembly 300 is slidably connected to the plurality of limiting posts 150 , and therefore, the limiting assembly 300 and any limiting post 150 among the plurality of limiting posts 150 are clearance-fitted.
[0086] Specifically, Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, there is a large gap between the limiting column 150 and the groove wall of the groove 350 of the limiting assembly 300 to meet the use requirements of the limiting assembly 300 and the plurality of limiting columns 150 being slidably connected. For example, the radius of the limiting column 150 is smaller than the radius corresponding to the groove wall of the groove 350.
[0087] The limiting slip ring matched with the threaded rod 140 is a force-bearing member, and the limiting slip ring not matched with the threaded rod 140 is a non-force-bearing member. Therefore, the limiting slip ring matched with the threaded rod 140 is used to apply oil to a part of the limiting columns 150 among the plurality of limiting columns 150, that is, the force-bearing member applies oil to a part of the limiting columns 150 among the plurality of limiting columns 150. The non-force-bearing member is either in a non-working state (that is, the limiting column 150 matched with the non-force-bearing member is in an oil-free state, and the non-force-bearing member does not need to absorb oil from the limiting column 150), or in a working state (that is, the non-force-bearing member absorbs oil from another part of the limiting columns 150 among the plurality of limiting columns 150).
[0088] Since the limit column 150 coated with lubricating oil has the function of slidingly cooperating with the limit assembly 300, the above-mentioned limitation can reduce the amount of wear generated between the non-stress-bearing parts and the limit column 150 during the relative sliding process, and minimize the contact area between the un-oiled limit column 150 and the non-stress-bearing parts during the relative sliding process.
[0089] It can be understood that the sliding limit column 340 of the non-stress-bearing part in a non-working state or in a working state does not contact the threaded rod 140, and the non-stress-bearing part is in a state without being subjected to deflection force. Therefore, the non-stress-bearing part will not be tightly attached to the limit column 150 (that is, the non-stress-bearing part can rotate slightly), thereby avoiding wear when the non-stress-bearing part and the limit column 150 slide relative to each other.
[0090] As for the force-bearing member, the force-bearing member is subjected to the deflection force provided by the threaded rod 140 , so that the limiting column 150 coated with lubricating oil can be brought into contact with the force-bearing member to achieve the limiting effect on the force-bearing member.
[0091] In some embodiments, the plurality of limiting posts 150 are arranged at equal intervals along the circumference of the threaded rod 140 .
[0092] In this embodiment, the arrangement defines the arrangement positions of the plurality of limiting posts 150, so that the plurality of limiting posts 150 are arranged at equal intervals along the circumference of the threaded rod 140. This arrangement enables the limiting assembly 300 to slide more smoothly.
[0093] For example, when the number of the limiting posts 150 is four, oil may be applied to two limiting posts 150 located at the diagonal line.
[0094] For example, when the number of the limiting pillars 150 is six, three of the limiting pillars 150 may be oiled at intervals.
[0095] In some embodiments, the number of the first limiting slip ring 310 is at least one, and the number of the second limiting slip ring 320 is at least one; when the number of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 are both multiple, the multiple first limiting slip rings 310 are located on the same side of the multiple second limiting slip rings 320, or at least one second limiting slip ring 320 is arranged between any two adjacent first limiting slip rings 310.
[0096] In this embodiment, the number and arrangement positions of the first limiting slip rings 310 and the second limiting slip rings 320 are further limited.
[0097] The number of the first limiting slip ring 310 is at least one, and the number of the second limiting slip ring 320 is at least one.
[0098] When there are multiple first position-limiting slip rings 310 and multiple second position-limiting slip rings 320 , the multiple first position-limiting slip rings 310 are located on the same side of the multiple second position-limiting slip rings 320 .
[0099] When there are multiple first limiting slip rings 310 and multiple second limiting slip rings 320 , at least one second limiting slip ring 320 is disposed between any two adjacent first limiting slip rings 310 .
[0100] The number and location of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 may be set according to specific actual use requirements.
[0101] In some embodiments, Fig.11 As shown, the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 are also provided with a first one-way valve 380 and a second one-way valve 390, the first one-way valve 380 is connected to the positive pressure oil chamber 332, and the second one-way valve 390 is connected to the negative pressure oil chamber 334, and the first telescopic rod group 100 also includes: a lubricating oil assembly 160, which is connected to the threaded rod 140, and the lubricating oil assembly 160 is located between the limiting component 300 and the first driving member 120, and the oil outlet pipe of the lubricating oil assembly 160 is detachably connected to the first one-way valve 380, and the oil suction pipe of the lubricating oil assembly 160 is detachably connected to the second one-way valve 390.
[0102] In this embodiment, the matching structure of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 is further defined.
[0103] The first limiting sliding ring 310 is provided with a first one-way valve 380 , and the first limiting sliding ring 310 is also provided with a second one-way valve 390 . The first one-way valve 380 is communicated with the positive pressure oil chamber 332 , and the second one-way valve 390 is communicated with the negative pressure oil chamber 334 .
[0104] The second limiting sliding ring 320 is provided with a first one-way valve 380 , and the second limiting sliding ring 320 is further provided with a second one-way valve 390 . The first one-way valve 380 is communicated with the positive pressure oil chamber 332 , and the second one-way valve 390 is communicated with the negative pressure oil chamber 334 .
[0105] The first telescopic rod assembly 100 further includes a lubricating oil assembly 160, which is fixedly connected to the threaded rod 140 and has an oil outlet pipe and an oil suction pipe. The oil outlet pipe of the lubricating oil assembly 160 is detachably connected to the first one-way valve 380, and the oil suction pipe of the lubricating oil assembly 160 is detachably connected to the second one-way valve 390.
[0106] When the oil outlet pipe of the lubricating oil assembly 160 is assembled with the first one-way valve 380, the lubricating oil assembly 160 supplies lubricating oil to the positive pressure oil chamber 332 through the oil outlet pipe and the first one-way valve 380. When the oil suction pipe of the lubricating oil assembly 160 is assembled with the second one-way valve 390, the lubricating oil assembly 160 sucks the lubricating oil of the negative pressure oil chamber 334 through the oil suction pipe.
[0107] When the limit assembly 300 moves along the axial direction of the threaded rod 140, the limit assembly 300 is disconnected from the lubricating oil assembly 160. Under the action of the first one-way valve 380, the positive pressure oil chamber 332 forms a closed chamber. Under the action of the second one-way valve 390, the negative pressure oil chamber 334 forms a closed chamber. This setting provides structural support for the subsequent positive pressure oil chamber 332 to apply oil to the limit column 150, and the negative pressure oil chamber 334 absorbs oil from the limit column 150.
[0108] In some embodiments, Figure 8 and Fig.10 As shown, air bags 400 are provided in both the positive pressure oil chamber 332 and the negative pressure oil chamber 334 .
[0109] In this embodiment, the structures of the positive-pressure oil chamber 332 and the negative-pressure oil chamber 334 are further defined.
[0110] The airbag 400 is provided in both the positive pressure oil chamber 332 and the negative pressure oil chamber 334. That is, the airbag 400 is provided in the positive pressure oil chamber 332, and the airbag 400 is provided in the negative pressure oil chamber 334. The airbag 400 in the positive pressure oil chamber 332 is fixedly connected to the cavity wall of the positive pressure oil chamber 332. The airbag 400 in the negative pressure oil chamber 334 is fixedly connected to the cavity wall of the negative pressure oil chamber 334.
[0111] When positive pressure and negative pressure are formed in the positive pressure oil chamber 332 and the negative pressure oil chamber 334, the airbag 400 will shrink or expand to store some energy. During the axial movement of the limit assembly 300 along the threaded rod 140, the airbag 400 will slowly release energy to ensure the effectiveness and feasibility of the positive pressure oil chamber 332 applying oil to the limit column 150 and the negative pressure oil chamber 334 absorbing oil from the limit column 150.
[0112] In some embodiments, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the second telescopic rod group 200 includes: a second telescopic rod 210; a top rod 220, the second telescopic rod 210 is arranged around the top rod 220, the top rod 220 is provided with a matching groove 222, and the second end of the threaded rod 140 is connected to the matching groove 222; the first telescopic rod group 100 also includes a limiting rod 170, the limiting rod 170 is connected to the first telescopic rod 110, the limiting rod 170 is arranged around the threaded rod 140, and the inner surface of the limiting rod 170 is provided with a limiting column 150; when the first telescopic rod 110 is in the retracted position, the top rod 220 is located between the threaded rod 140 and the limiting rod 170, the reset spring 500 is located between the limiting rod 170 and the second telescopic rod 210, and the reset spring 500 is in contact with the first telescopic rod group 100.
[0113] In this embodiment, the structures of the second telescopic rod set 200 and the first telescopic rod set 100 are further defined.

At this time, the return spring 500 is in a compressed state, and the return spring 500 is used to drive the first telescopic rod 110 to move to the retracted position relative to the second telescopic rod assembly 200.
[0118] The first telescopic rod 110, the limiting rod 170, the second telescopic rod 210 and the top rod 220 cooperate to form a multi-layer protection to reduce the probability of water vapor, dirt, etc. in the environment entering the automobile electric tailgate support rod 10 through the connection between the first telescopic rod group 100 and the second telescopic rod group 200.
[0119] Optionally, when the first telescopic rod 110 is located at the retracted position, a portion of the first telescopic rod 110 extends into the second telescopic rod 210 .

[0121] Alternatively, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the electric tailgate support rod 10 of the automobile further includes a control cable 700 , and the control cable 700 is used to be electrically connected to a controller of the automobile.
[0122] Optionally, the fixed block 600 is fixedly connected to the first telescopic rod 110. The control cable 700 is fixedly connected to the first telescopic rod 110. The second telescopic rod 210 is slidably connected to the first telescopic rod 110. The first motor 122 (e.g., a rotating motor) is fixedly connected to the first telescopic rod 110. The planetary reducer 124 is fixedly connected to the first telescopic rod 110. The return spring 500 supports the second telescopic rod 210. The top rod 220 is fixedly connected to the second telescopic rod 210.

The lubricating oil assembly 160 is provided with an oil outlet pipe and an oil suction pipe, the oil outlet pipe is connected to the positive pressure oil chamber 332, and the oil suction pipe is connected to the negative pressure oil chamber 334. The first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 are also provided with a liquid inlet 410 and a liquid outlet 420, the liquid inlet 410 is connected to the positive pressure oil chamber 332, the liquid outlet 420 is connected to the negative pressure oil chamber 334, the positive pressure oil chamber 332 and the oil outlet pipe of the lubricating oil assembly 160 are connected through the liquid inlet 410, and the negative pressure oil chamber 334 and the oil suction pipe of the lubricating oil assembly 160 are connected through the liquid outlet 420. The grooves 350 of the first limiting sliding ring 310 and the second limiting sliding ring 320 are both provided with a connecting gap 800 and an extended gap 900. The connecting gap 800 is connected to the positive pressure oil chamber 332, and the extended gap 900 is connected to the negative pressure oil chamber 334. The sliding limiting column 340 is slidably connected to the ring body 330. The inner surface of the limiting rod 170 is provided with a limiting column 150. The guiding inclined groove 372 is located on the limiting sleeve 370, and the rotation of the limiting sleeve 370 can drive the sliding limiting column 340 to move up and down.
[0123] When the automobile electric tailgate support rod 10 starts working, the rotating motor drives the threaded rod 140 to rotate through the planetary reducer 124, the threaded rod 140 cooperates with one of the first limit slip ring 310 and the second limit slip ring 320, and the limit assembly 300 is slidably connected with the limit column 150 in the limit rod 170, thereby driving the limit assembly 300 to move along the axial direction of the threaded rod 140, so that the first telescopic rod 110 slides relative to the second telescopic rod group 200.
[0124] The limiting sleeve 370 is driven to rotate by the second motor, and the limiting sleeve 370 rotates to lift the sliding limiting column 340 of one of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320, and to lower the sliding limiting column 340 of the other of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320. The first limiting slip ring 310 or the second limiting slip ring 320 whose sliding limiting column 340 is lowered cooperates with the threaded rod 140, thereby ensuring that there is a sliding limiting column 340 that slides in the spiral groove of the threaded rod 140.
[0125] When the electric tailgate support rod 10 of the automobile has not been used for a long time, the second motor works to drive the limiting sleeve 370 to rotate, switch the sliding limiting column 340, so that one of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 cooperates with the threaded rod 140, and the other of the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 moves with the limiting sleeve 370, which is beneficial to prolonging the service life of the electric tailgate support rod 10 of the automobile.
[0126] When the first threaded rod 140 is in the retracted position, the liquid inlet 410 and the liquid outlet 420 of any one of the first limit slip ring 310 and the second limit slip ring 320 are both connected to the lubricating oil assembly 160. The lubricating oil assembly 160 is connected to replenish the pressure to the positive pressure oil chamber 332 and the negative pressure oil chamber 334, so as to shrink or enlarge the airbag 400, so that when the limit assembly 300 moves along the threaded rod 140, one of the first limit slip ring 310 and the second limit slip ring 320 applies oil to the limit column 150 to increase lubrication, and the other of the first limit slip ring 310 and the second limit slip ring 320 absorbs the waste oil at the limit column 150.
[0127] It is understandable that if the electric tailgate support rod 10 of the automobile is in a state of frequent use, the first limiting slip ring 310 and the second limiting slip ring 320 used for switching the second motor are not needed, and the lubricating oil assembly 160 is not needed to absorb and replenish oil.
[0128] Optionally, the above operations of the automobile electric tailgate support rod 10 are controlled by a chip.
[0129] Optionally, a ball 430 is provided at the end of the sliding limit column 340 , and the lubricating oil can flow to the threaded rod 140 via the guiding inclined groove 372 and the ball 430 .
[0130] The technical features of the above embodiments may be combined arbitrarily. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
