Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metal vibration dampers, and in particular to a sealing mechanism for a metal vibration damper and the metal vibration damper. Background Art

[0002] During the use of metal shock absorbers, the friction and wear between the internal metal wires will produce metal powder. As the friction continues, the metal powder will overflow from the metal shock absorber, resulting in the generation of environmental waste, thus affecting the surrounding working environment.

[0003] In order to solve the above problems, the prior art has adopted a number of countermeasures. For example, in the technical solution disclosed in the patent with publication number CN211009673U, the metal contact points and thread gaps are mainly sealed by multiple rubber sealing rings; in another example, in the technical solution disclosed in the patent with publication number CN106195098B, the sealing is mainly achieved by the interference contact between the dustproof component (including the support frame and the rubber dustproof seal) and the vibration damping column.

[0004] Although the technical solution disclosed in the first patent mentioned above seals multiple metal contact gaps through sealing rings, there is still a possibility of leakage of excess matter in the vibration-damping stroke space between the cap and the upper cover; in the technical solution disclosed in the second patent mentioned above, there is interference contact between the dustproof component and the vibration-damping column. During the vibration process, the vibration-damping column and the rubber dust seal in the dustproof component will produce severe friction and wear and rubber fatigue. At the same time, instantaneous gaps may still occur between the dustproof seal and the vibration-damping column, resulting in impurity leakage. This structure is also complex and difficult to assemble. Summary of the invention

[0024] The sealing mechanism for the metal shock absorber provided in the present embodiment is provided with a telescopic tube 30, which is coaxially sleeved outside the metal shock absorber to seal the side wall outside the metal shock absorber. Furthermore, an end clamp ring 10 and a wall clamp ring 20 are provided, so that the two are respectively connected to the two ends of the telescopic tube 30, and are respectively clamped with the end face of the metal shock absorber and the ring edge of the side wall of the steel sleeve in the middle of the metal shock absorber, so as to seal the two ends of the telescopic tube 30. When the metal shock absorber generates metal chips due to friction and wear during use, the metal chips are sealed in the sealing mechanism, so as to effectively prevent the metal chips from overflowing into the environment; and during the use of the metal shock absorber, the steel sleeve will move slightly, and the telescopic tube 30 can be axially telescoped, so as to effectively and adaptively compensate for the slight displacement of the steel sleeve, so as to avoid damage and leakage of the sealing mechanism; through the mutual cooperation of the above-mentioned features, the sealing mechanism for the metal shock absorber can effectively solve the problem of metal chips generated and overflowing during the use of the metal shock absorber.

[0025] In order to improve the clamping tightness between the end clamping ring 10 and the end face of the metal vibration damper, the end clamping ring 10 is provided with an embedded ring 11 on the annular surface facing the wall clamping ring 20, and the embedded ring 11 is used to be embedded in the end face of the metal vibration damper along the axial direction; when the embedded ring 11 is embedded in the end face of the metal vibration damper, the side of the end clamping ring 10 away from the wall clamping ring 20 is flush with the end face of the metal vibration damper.

[0026] To further explain the specific structure of the telescopic tube 30 , the telescopic tube 30 is in the shape of a bellows.

[0027] Please Figure 1 Further reference Figure 2The present embodiment further provides a metal vibration damper, comprising: a limiting cylinder 1, wherein a first limiting plate 2 and a second limiting plate 3 are respectively disposed at both ends of the limiting cylinder 1, wherein the first limiting plate 2 and the second limiting plate 3 are symmetrically arranged, and the second limiting plate 3 is used to be attached to and fixedly connected with the external environment; a second limiting cylinder 1 comprises a steel sleeve 4, wherein the steel sleeve 4 is coaxially slidably sleeved outside the limiting cylinder 1, wherein the steel sleeve 4 is used to be connected with a vibration damped device 6, wherein the outer side wall of the steel sleeve 4 extends radially outward to form two ring edges 7, wherein the two ring edges 7 It is symmetrically arranged along the axial direction of the limit cylinder 1; the third includes a pair of metal rubber rings 5, which are coaxially sleeved on the outside of the limit cylinder 1 and clamped between the steel sleeve 4 and the first limit plate 2 or the second limit plate 3; the fourth includes two of the above-mentioned sealing mechanisms for metal shock absorbers, the two end clamping rings 10 are respectively axially clamped with the outer end surfaces of the first limit plate 2 and the second limit plate 3, and the two clamping grooves 21 of the two wall clamping rings 20 are respectively clamped with the two ring edges 7.

The metal rubber ring 5 eliminates force through its own elasticity to play a role in buffering and vibration reduction. The first limit plate 2 and the second limit plate 3 are respectively used to axially support the two metal rubber rings 5 ​​to ensure the structural performance of the vibration reduction structure; on this basis, by providing the two above-mentioned sealing mechanisms and installing them in the above-mentioned manner, the wear parts in the vibration reduction process are effectively sealed.
