[0040] Specifically, the present invention provides a docking boss 2 at the head end of the cylinder body 1, and a docking hole 102 at the tail end thereof. Therefore, when multiple cylinder bodies 1 need to be assembled, the head piston rod 3 is inserted from bottom to top into the piston cavity 101 opened inside the first cylinder body 1, and the sealing piston 41 is slidably and sealedly inserted into the piston cavity 101, and then the docking boss 2 at the head end of the second cylinder body 1 is inserted into the docking hole 102 opened at the tail end of the first cylinder body 1, and the piston hole 21 on the docking boss 2 is aligned with the piston rod 3. The cavity 101 is connected, and at this time the piston connecting rod 4 in the second cylinder body 1 will be connected to the first piston rod 3, and then the cylinder bodies 1 will be plugged in and connected in series in turn, and then the front end cover 6 will be covered on the docking boss 2 at the head of the first cylinder body 1, and the tail end cover 7 will be sealed on the docking hole 102 opened at the tail of the tail cylinder body 1 to achieve sealing of the multiple cylinder bodies 1 in series. If it is necessary to continue to add a cylinder body 1 to the cylinder body 1 in series, at this time, it is only necessary to remove the tail end cover 7 from the tail cylinder body 1 , then insert the docking boss 2 on the new cylinder body 1 into the docking hole 102 opened on the tail cylinder body 1, and the corresponding piston connecting rods 4 are connected to each other, and then the tail end cover 7 is sealed and covered on the tail of the newly added cylinder body 1, so that the new cylinder body 1 can be quickly assembled to the multiple cylinder bodies 1 in series, and there is no need to disassemble the tail cylinder body 1 before installing the new cylinder body 1.

[0041] In the design scheme of the present invention, the outer ring surfaces of the head end and the tail end of the cylinder body 1 are both provided with flanges 104. The flanges 104 between two adjacent cylinder bodies 1 are connected by bolts. The docking boss 2 includes a first boss 22 and a second boss 23. The diameter of the first boss 22 is larger than the diameter of the second boss 23, and the first boss 22 is located in the docking hole 102, and the second boss 23 is located in the piston hole 21. The diameter of the sealing piston 41 is smaller than the diameter of the docking hole 102. The expansion sealing assembly 5 is tightened on the docking boss 2.

[0042] Specifically, when two adjacent cylinder bodies 1 are plugged in, when the docking boss 2 is inserted into the docking hole 102, the first boss 22 will be located in the docking hole 102, and the second boss 23 will be inserted into the piston hole 21, so as to seal the bottom of the piston hole 21. After the two adjacent cylinder bodies 1 are docked, the upper and lower flanges 104 that are in contact with each other can be connected and fixed by the cooperation of a number of bolts and nuts, thereby facilitating the fixed connection of the two adjacent docked cylinder bodies 1 together. When the docking boss 2 is inserted into the docking hole 102, the expansion sealing assembly 5 can expand and seal the connection between the two adjacent cylinder bodies 1 to prevent the hydraulic oil entering the piston cavity 101 from leaking.

[0043] In the design scheme of the present invention, the expansion sealing assembly 5 includes a sac-type expansion ring 51, a sealing ring 52, a connecting bend 53, an arc-shaped sac plate 54 and an elastic arc plate 55. At least two first annular grooves 24 are formed on the first boss 22, and a second annular groove 25 is formed on the second boss 23. The sac-type expansion ring 51 is installed in the first annular groove 24, and the sealing ring 52 is installed in the second annular groove 25. The upper and lower sac-type expansion rings 51 are connected by multiple connecting bends 53. A plurality of bending grooves 26 are provided on the docking boss 2, and a connecting bend 53 is embedded in the bending groove 26. At least two annular grooves 10 are provided in the docking hole 102. 3, and the annular groove 103 corresponds to the first annular groove 24 opened on the inserted first boss 22, an annular groove 105 is opened on the surface of the flange 104, and a plurality of arc-shaped capsule plates 54 and a plurality of elastic arc plates 55 are installed in the annular groove 105, the plurality of arc-shaped capsule plates 54 and the plurality of elastic arc plates 55 are connected to each other to form an annular ring, the plurality of arc-shaped capsule plates 54 are connected to the plurality of connecting elbows 53, the thickness of the annular ring is greater than the groove depth of the annular groove 105, the elastic arc plate 55 is provided with a through hole, and the two adjacent flanges 104 are connected by a plurality of bolts, and the screws of the bolts are plugged into the through holes;

[0044] Specifically, when the docking boss 2 on the top of the cylinder body 1 needs to be inserted into the docking hole 102, at least two sac-shaped expansion rings 51 are first sleeved in sequence into the first annular groove 24 opened on the first boss 22, and at the same time, at least six connecting bends 53 arranged in a circumferential array are bent in sequence to be inserted into the bending groove 26, and at the same time, the arc-shaped sac plate 54 connected to the connecting bend 53 is embedded in the annular groove 105, and the through hole opened on the elastic arc plate 55 is aligned with the hole on the flange 104, and then the sealing ring 52 is sleeved into the second annular groove 25 opened on the second boss 23. Therefore, when the docking After the boss 2 is inserted into the docking hole 102, the sealing ring 52 will be sealed and fitted to the cavity wall connecting the docking hole 102 and the piston cavity 101, and at least two sac-type expansion rings 51 will be aligned with the annular groove 103, and the arc-shaped sac plate 54 and the elastic arc plate 55 forming an annular ring will be located in the annular groove 105 of the upper and lower flanges 104. As the multiple bolts and nuts on the flanges 104 are tightened, the upper and lower flanges 104 are pressed against each other. At this time, the multiple arc-shaped sac plates 54 will be compressed, so that the gas inside them will enter the at least two sac-type expansion rings 51 through the multiple connecting bends 53. Since the sac-shaped expansion ring 51 corresponds to the annular groove 103, and the cross-section of the annular groove 103 is trumpet-shaped, the sac-shaped expansion ring 51 will expand into the annular groove 103, so that the expanded sac-shaped expansion ring 51 can be sealed and snapped into the connection between the docking hole 102 and the first boss 22, so that the sealing ring 52 on the second boss 23 plays a first layer of sealing effect, and the expanded and snapped sac-shaped expansion ring 51 can play a second layer of sealing effect between the docking hole 102 and the first boss 22, and the connected annular ring can play a third layer of sealing effect between the two flanges 104 after being squeezed. , thereby further improving the sealing between the cylinder bodies 1 after docking, and the annular ring formed by multiple arc-shaped bag plates 54 and multiple elastic arc-shaped plates 55 is fixed in the flange 104 by bolts. Therefore, it will not rotate in the flange 104 and affect its sealing effect. At the same time, the expanded and stuck bag-shaped expansion ring 51 will play an axial limiting role between the docking boss 2 and the cylinder body 1, preventing the head piston rod 3 or the piston connecting rod 4 from axially sliding in the cylinder body 1. The phenomenon of the docking boss 2 producing a small axial slip in the docking hole 102 due to the force of the hydraulic oil in the piston chamber 101 causes the docking boss 2 to have an axial slip.

[0045] In the design scheme of the present invention, the front end cover 6 includes a front flange 61 and a stepped end cover 62, the front flange 61 and the stepped end cover 62 are designed as an integral part, and the front flange 61 corresponds to the flange plate 104, and the stepped end cover 62 is sealed and covered on the docking boss 2 at the head of the cylinder body 1, and the tail end cover 7 includes a tail flange 71, a tail boss 72 and a sealing boss 73, the tail flange 71 and the sealing boss 73 are designed as an integral part, and the tail flange 71 corresponds to the flange plate 104, the structure of the tail boss 72 is the same as that of the docking boss 2, and the cylindrical sealing of the sealing boss 73 is connected to the piston hole 21 opened on the tail boss 72;

[0046] Specifically, the stepped end cover 62 will be sealed and covered on the docking boss 2 at the head end of the first cylinder body 1 through the front flange 61, and the front flange 61 and the flange 104 on the head end of the cylinder body 1 are connected by a number of bolts to achieve sealing of the head end of the first cylinder body 1, and the tail end cover 7 is sealed and inserted into the docking hole 102 opened at the tail end of the tail cylinder body 1 through the cooperation of the tail flange 71 and the sealing boss 73. Since the structure of the tail boss 72 is the same as that of the docking boss 2, the tail end cover 7 can be sealed and inserted into the docking hole 102 opened at the tail end of any cylinder body 1, and the tail flange 71 is connected to the flange 104 at the tail end of the cylinder body 1 through a number of bolts, and then cooperates with the expansion sealing assembly 5 to achieve rapid sealing of the docking hole 102 opened at the tail end of the series-connected tail cylinder body 1.

[0047] In the design scheme of the present invention, the head piston rod 3 and the piston connecting rod 4 have the same structure, and the two are connected by an extrusion and fastening assembly 8, which includes a docking sleeve 81, an insert block 82, an arc-shaped push block 83, a spring member 84, a sealing ring 85, a sliding guide tube 86, a connecting pipe 87 and an external threaded tube 88. The tail end of the piston connecting rod 4 is provided with a plug hole 42, and the head end is fixed with a docking sleeve 81. The docking sleeve 81 and the plug hole 42 are plugged into each other. A sliding hole 43 is formed inside the piston connecting rod 4. Several plug blocks 82 are slidably installed on the wall of the docking sleeve 81. Several fastening slots 44 are provided on the wall of the plug hole 42. Several of the fastening slots 44 correspond to several sockets. The inner ends of several of the plug blocks 82 are provided with arc-shaped push blocks 83. The inner end faces of the arc-shaped push blocks 83 are through-holes. The spring member 84 is connected to the wall of the docking sleeve 81, and several arc-shaped push blocks 83 are formed into a circular ring inside the docking sleeve 81, and the inner diameter of the docking sleeve 81 is larger than the aperture of the sliding hole 43. A bearing is installed at the bottom of the sealing boss 73, and a sealing ring 85 is provided on the inner ring of the bearing. A sliding guide tube 86 is sealed and inserted in the sealing ring 85. The top of the sliding guide tube 86 is provided with a threaded hole, and an external thread groove is formed on the outer ring surface of the top.

At this time, the connected connecting pipes 87 and the sliding guide tube 86 will be inserted into the sliding hole 43 from bottom to top. When the head end of the first connecting tube 87 contacts the multiple arc-shaped push blocks 83 of the circumferential array, since the inner side surface of the bottom end of the arc-shaped push block 83 is designed with an arc angle, and the head end of the connecting tube 87 has a rounded corner, as the connecting tube 87 is continuously inserted, the connecting tube 87 will squeeze the multiple arc-shaped push blocks 83, causing them to slide toward the inner wall of the docking sleeve 81, and the spring member 84 connected to the arc-shaped push block 83 will be compressed, and then the arc-shaped push block 83 will push the insert block 82 to slide and insert into the corresponding buckle slot 44, thereby achieving Now the upper and lower piston connecting rods 4 or the head piston rod 3 and the piston connecting rod 4 are stably and quickly connected. When the external thread groove of the outer ring surface of the head end of the connecting tube 87 corresponds to the thread groove on the sliding hole 43 in the middle piston connecting rod 4, it is necessary to rotate the sliding guide tube 86 so that the external thread groove on the first connecting tube 87 passes over the thread groove. When the head end of the first connecting tube 87 enters the head piston rod 3, the sliding guide tube 86 is rotated so that the outer ring surface of the head end of multiple connecting tubes 87 corresponds to the thread groove on the corresponding sliding hole 43. The sliding guide 86 is connected by a thread, and the head end of the sliding guide 86 is also threadedly connected to the sliding hole 43 in the piston connecting rod 4 at the tail end, which can achieve the purpose of blocking the sliding hole 43 on the last piston connecting rod 4, thereby facilitating the hidden and stable connection of the upper and lower piston connecting rods 4 from the inside. When the connected head piston rod 3 and piston connecting rod 4 slide in the multiple cylinder bodies 1, the sliding guide 86 will slide in a sealed manner in the sealing ring 85, so that it will not interfere with the normal output load of the multiple piston connecting rods 4 and the head piston rod 3 connected to each other;When it is necessary to add a cylinder body 1 and a corresponding piston connecting rod 4 structure, the bolts on the tail flange 71 are first removed, and then the sliding guide 86 is rotated to remove it from the connected connecting pipe 87, so that the tail end cover 7 is removed from the tail cylinder body 1, and then the docking boss 2 on the new cylinder body 1 is inserted into the docking hole 102, and the piston connecting rod 4 is inserted into the corresponding plug hole 42, and then the new connecting pipe 87 is connected to the head end of the sliding guide 86, and then the tail end cover 7 is inserted into the docking hole 102 opened at the tail of the new cylinder body 1. At this time, the newly connected connecting pipe 87 will be inserted into the sliding hole 43 opened inside the new piston connecting rod 4, and the multiple arc-shaped push blocks 83 will be squeezed and pushed, so that the new piston connecting rod 4 is stably and quickly connected to the previous piston connecting rod 4, and then the sliding guide 86 is rotated to make the new connecting pipe 87 They are interconnected with the connecting pipe 87 above, making it easy to quickly add another hydraulic cylinder to the series hydraulic cylinders, further increasing the output load of the series hydraulic cylinders. When the cylinder body 1 needs to be reduced, the flange 104 on the tail end cover 7 is removed, and then the sliding guide 86 needs to be rotated to drive the multiple connecting pipes 87 to simultaneously disengage from the insertion holes 42. At this time, the multiple arc-shaped push blocks 83 drive the insert blocks 82 to disengage from the snap-fit ​​slots 44 under the elastic recovery of the spring member 84, thereby disconnecting the docking sleeve 81 on the piston connecting rod 4 from the insertion hole 42. Then, when the cylinder body 1 is removed, the corresponding piston connecting rod 4 will be synchronously disengaged, and then the corresponding connecting pipe 87 is removed. Then, the tail end cover 7 is sealed and closed to the tail end of the cylinder body 1 that has been disassembled in series, thereby facilitating the disassembly and reduction of the multiple cylinder bodies 1 in series.

When the connecting plate 93 slides to the bottom of the sliding cavity 31, the threaded hole on the connecting plate 93 is aligned with the sliding hole 43, and then the outer ring surface of the head end of the connecting pipe 87 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole of the connecting plate 93, which is convenient for passing through the connecting plate 93 and the spring member. 84 fixes the sliding piston 91, and then introduces the medium between the sealing sliding plug 92 and the connecting plate 93 through the connecting pipe 87 and the sliding guide tube 86, so that it can push the sliding piston 91 to extend out of the sliding chamber 31, thereby facilitating the increase of the stroke length of the head piston rod 3, thereby increasing the use range of the hydraulic cylinder device used in multi-stage series, and extracting the medium in the sliding chamber 31. The spring part 84 on the connecting plate 93 will pull the sliding piston 91 back into the sliding chamber 31 under its own elastic restoring force.
