[0041] Example 1

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, the cylinder body 1 is composed of a cylinder body main body (screw connection) 104 and a cylinder stop plate (screw connection) 105 assembled by a plurality of screws 5 to form a cylinder body 1, and a piston assembly 2 assembly 2 is installed therein, and an elastic sealing ring is arranged between the piston assembly 2 assembly elastic sealing ring contact surface 202 on the piston assembly 2 assembly 2 and the cylinder stop elastic sealing ring contact surface 101 on the cylinder stop plate (screw connection) 105. When the hydraulic fluid 4 in the cylinder body reaches a pressure of 63Mpa under the action of the hydraulic pump, the hydraulic oil acts on the piston assembly 2 assembly pressure surface 201 of the piston assembly 2 assembly 2 and the piston assembly 2 assembly is pressed. 2 combination 2 is pushed away from the cylinder body, and the elastic sealing ring 3 is pressed by the piston combination 2. The contact surface of the piston combination 2 elastic sealing ring on the combination 2 is on the cylinder stop elastic sealing ring contact surface 101 on the cylinder stop plate (screw connection) 105, and the elastic sealing ring 3 is elastically deformed, thereby increasing the contact area with the piston combination 2 elastic sealing ring contact surface 202 and the cylinder stop elastic sealing ring contact surface 101, thereby achieving a more effective seal than a conventional sealing ring. There is no relative movement between the elastic sealing ring and the two contact surfaces, and no mechanical wear will be caused, and there is no surface roughness requirement for the contact surface.

[0043] The cross section of the elastic sealing ring is not limited to Fig.12 , Fig.13 , Fig.14 The O-shaped sealing ring 301, rectangular sealing ring 302 and W-shaped sealing ring 303 shown can all be used.

[0044] like Figure 5 As shown, there is an elastic positioning ring 7 between the cylinder side wall 102 and the elastic positioning ring groove 207 of the piston assembly 2.

[0045] like Figure 6 As shown, there is an elastic positioning ring 7 between the rod side 204 of the piston assembly 2 and the elastic positioning ring groove 108 of the cylinder stop.

[0046] like Fig.15 As shown, a limiting sleeve 8 is provided on the piston assembly 2 to control the return stroke of the piston assembly 2 so that the elastic sealing ring 3 is in a sealing state.

[0047] Example 2

[0048] like Figure 4 As shown, different from Example 1, the cylinder body 1 is composed of a cylinder body main body (welded) 106, a cylinder stop plate (welded) 107 and a weld 6.

[0049] Example 3

[0050] like Figure 7 As shown, the difference from Example 1 is that the contact surface of piston assembly 2, the contact surface of the elastic sealing ring of piston assembly 2 (internal pressure inclined surface) 205, and the contact surface of the elastic sealing ring of cylinder stop (internal pressure inclined surface) 103 on the cylinder body 1 are inclined in the direction of the pressure cylinder pressure, so that the elastic sealing ring 3 is in contact with the side surface 204 of the piston assembly 2 rod at the same time.

[0051] Example 4

[0052] like Figure 8 As shown, the difference from Example 1 is that the contact surface of the piston assembly 2 and the elastic sealing ring contact surface (external pressure inclined surface) 206 of the piston assembly 2 are inclined outward and make the elastic sealing ring 3 contact with the cylinder side wall 102 at the same time.

[0053] Example 5

[0054] like Fig. 9 As shown, the present invention is used on a three-plate injection die-casting machine, a plate 9, a three-plate 12, a mold beam 10 are combined into a machine frame, and a second plate 11 is installed on a second-plate moving guide rail 16 in the middle. The second-plate moving guide rail 16 is on a second-plate second-plate fixed guide rail 15, and the second-plate fixed guide rail 15 and the frame are relatively fixed.

[0055] The fixed mold 18 is mounted on the first plate 9, and the movable mold 17 is mounted on the second plate 11. A gate plate 13 and a pressure cylinder of the present invention are arranged between the second plate 11 and the third plate 12. The pressure cylinder piston assembly 2 applies pressure to the gate plate 13 through the pressure surface 203. The gate plate 13 presses the second plate to press the movable mold and the fixed mold tightly. A gate plate track 14 is arranged under the gate plate 13. The gate plate 13 can enter or exit the machine along the track. Fig.10 The state is the exit state, the moving direction of the fixed cylinder 1 piston combination 2 combination 2 on the third plate 12 is consistent with the moving direction of the second plate 11, Fig. 9 The middle is the clamping state of the fixed and movable molds. Fig.10 yes Fig. 9 The top view shows that the gate plate 13 exits the machine at the same time, and the second plate 11 drives the movable mold 17 to retreat, and the fixed and movable molds are separated, and the workpiece demoulding operation state can be carried out.

[0056] Example 6

[0057] like Fig.11 As shown, the difference from Example 5 is that the gate 13 is composed of a wedge gate 131 and a wedge 132. The wedge 132 is controlled by a wedge cylinder 19 and can be raised and lowered. When the gate 13 needs to exit the machine, the wedge 132 rises to reduce the total length of the gate 13 to facilitate the gate 13 to enter and exit the machine.

[0058] Example 7

[0059] like Fig.16 , Fig.17 As shown, the hollow cylinder body 109 is composed of a hollow pressure cylinder body 1091, an outer stop plate 1092 of the hollow pressure cylinder, an inner stop plate 1093 of the hollow pressure cylinder and a plurality of screws 5, and the hollow piston assembly 208 is installed therein. An elastic sealing ring 3 and an elastic sealing inner ring 20 are respectively provided between the annular hollow piston and the outer stop plate 1092 of the hollow pressure cylinder and the inner stop plate 1093 of the hollow pressure cylinder to form an inner and outer ring seal, thereby forming a hollow pressure cylinder.

[0060] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: an elastic sealing ring is arranged between the end face of the piston in the forward direction and the end face of the cylinder stop, and the sealing ring is squeezed after the piston is compressed to increase the contact area with the end face of the piston and the end face of the cylinder stop, and can contact the inner wall of the cylinder or the side of the piston rod at the same time, so that stable sealing can be achieved. There is no relative sliding block between the sealing ring and the contact surfaces, so there is no sliding wear, and no requirements are made on the surface roughness of the contact surfaces. It can be easy to manufacture and the sealing is reliable and stable. It is very suitable for pressure cylinders that require small-size feed, especially large-tonnage pressure cylinders.

[0061] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that are not conceived through creative work should be included in the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be based on the protection scope defined in the claims.
