[0029] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0030] The embodiment of the present invention provides a vehicle swing arm ball joint assembly installation structure, such as Figure 1-8 As shown, it includes a connecting member 1 and a main body 3. The connecting member 1 is provided with a mounting hole, and a mounting assembly for quickly installing the main body 3 is arranged in the mounting hole. The mounting assembly includes a mounting seat 2, a fixing ring 4, an insertion rod 5, and a socket 8. The mounting seat 2 is fixedly connected in the mounting hole, the fixing ring 4 is fixedly connected to the outside of the main body 3, the bottom of the fixing ring 4 is fixedly connected with the insertion rod 5, and the top of the mounting seat 2 is provided with a socket 8 matching the insertion rod 5.

[0031] There are six insertion rods 5 , and the six insertion rods 5 are distributed at equal angles with the axis of the overall body 3 as the center.

[0032] A fixing plate 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the overall body 3, and six fixing holes 7 with the same diameter as the socket 8 are opened on the outer side of the fixing plate 6, and the six fixing holes 7 are arranged at equal angles with the axis of the overall body 3 as the center. The shape of the socket 8 is set to be L-shaped, and the piston in the horizontal part of the socket 8 is matched with a translation rod 14, and the bottom end of the vertical part of the socket 8 is provided with a horizontally arranged first spring 13, one end of the first spring 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the vertical part of the socket 8, and the other end of the first spring 13 is fixedly connected to the translation rod 14. When the insertion rod 5 is fully inserted into the vertical part of the socket 8, the horizontal outlet of the socket 8 corresponds to the fixing hole 7 on the fixing plate 6. At the same time, the insertion of the insertion rod 5 increases the air pressure in the socket 8, so that the translation rod 14 overcomes the first spring 13 and moves outward to be inserted into the socket 8 of the fixing plate 6, thereby completing the fixation of the overall body 3.

[0033] When installing the overall body 3, it is only necessary to align the insertion rod 5 with the socket 8, and then insert the insertion rod 5 into the socket 8 until the insertion rod 5 is fully inserted into the socket 8. When the insertion rod 5 is fully inserted into the vertical portion of the socket 8, the horizontal portion outlet of the socket 8 corresponds to the fixing hole 7 on the fixing plate 6. At the same time, the insertion of the insertion rod 5 increases the air pressure in the socket 8, so that the translation rod 14 overcomes the first spring 13 and moves outward to be inserted into the socket 8 of the fixing plate 6, completing the fixation of the overall body 3, thereby being able to quickly complete the installation between the entire overall body 3 and the connecting member 1, greatly improving the installation efficiency.

[0034] The length of the translation rod 14 is greater than the length of the fixing hole 7 , and the length of the translation rod 14 is less than the length of the horizontal portion of the insertion hole 8 .

[0035] It also includes an anti-convex component for preventing the translation rod 14 from convexing inward when the insertion rod 5 is just inserted into the vertical part of the socket 8. The anti-convex component includes a block 10 and a second spring 11. The thickness of the block 10 is the same as the thickness of the fixed plate 6, and the diameter of the block 10 is the same as the diameter of the fixed plate 6. The bottom of the block 10 is hollow, and the block 10 is arranged at the bottom center of the mounting seat 2. The second spring 11 is arranged inside the block 10, and the top end of the second spring 11 is fixedly connected to the block 10, and the bottom end of the second spring 11 is fixedly connected to the mounting seat 2. Under normal circumstances, the block 10 pops up under the action of the second spring 11, so that the block 10 completely blocks the horizontal outlet of the socket 8.

[0036] Because the air pressure in the socket 8 increases when the insertion rod 5 is just inserted into the socket 8, causing the translation rod 14 to bulge outward, and the fixing plate 6 is blocked by the protruding translation rod 14 and cannot be pressed down. By setting the anti-bulging component, under normal conditions, the block 10 pops up under the action of the second spring 11, so that the block 10 completely blocks the horizontal outlet of the socket 8, so that the translation rod 14 will not bulge out, until the fixing plate 6 is pressed down to the specified position, that is, the position corresponding to the socket 8 and the fixing hole 7, then the translation rod 14 will be inserted into the fixing hole 7.

[0037] There are four second springs 11 , and the four second springs 11 are distributed at equal angles with the axis of the mounting seat 2 as the center.

[0038] It also includes a disassembly component for facilitating disassembly and replacement of the overall body 3, the disassembly component includes an air blocking bolt 9 and a vent screw hole 12, the number of the vent screw holes 12 is the same as the number of the insertion holes 8, and one end of each vent screw hole 12 is connected to a insertion hole 8, and the other end of the vent screw hole 12 is connected to the outside, and the air blocking bolt 9 is threadedly engaged in the vent screw hole 12.

[0039] By setting the disassembly component, when it is necessary to separate the mounting base 2 and the overall body 3, all the air blocking bolts 9 are unscrewed to make the vent screw hole 12 completely open, so that the internal air pressure of the jack 8 is equal to the external air pressure, and under the action of the first spring 13, the translation rod 14 contracts inwardly so that the translation rod 14 withdraws from the fixing hole 7. At this time, the overall body 3 can be directly pulled out upward for disassembly, which is very convenient to use.

[0040] The vent screw hole 12 is arranged at the bottom of the mounting seat 2 , and the vent screw hole 12 is arranged vertically, and a sealing ring is arranged between the air blocking bolt 9 and the vent screw hole 12 .

[0041] Working principle: When installing the overall body 3, you only need to align the insertion rod 5 with the socket 8, and then insert the insertion rod 5 into the socket 8 until the insertion rod 5 is fully inserted into the socket 8. When the insertion rod 5 is fully inserted into the vertical portion of the socket 8, the horizontal portion outlet of the socket 8 corresponds to the fixing hole 7 on the fixing plate 6. At the same time, the insertion of the insertion rod 5 increases the air pressure in the socket 8, so that the translation rod 14 overcomes the first spring 13 and moves outward to be inserted into the socket 8 of the fixing plate 6, completing the fixation of the overall body 3, thereby being able to quickly complete the installation between the entire overall body 3 and the connector 1, greatly improving the installation efficiency.

[0042] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
