For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0026] Combine the following Figure 1-Figure 4 , through specific embodiments and application scenarios, a bushing structure and a lower arm assembly of an automobile provided by an embodiment of the present invention are described in detail.
[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the present invention provides a bushing structure 1, including: a bushing body 11. The bushing body 11 is used to be fixedly connected to the lower arm 2 of the automobile. The bushing body 11 has a through hole 113 for inserting a fixed shaft of the vehicle body chassis. Two first vibration-damping holes 111 are distributed at intervals in the circumferential direction of the bushing body 11. The first vibration-damping hole 111 extends along the axial direction of the bushing body 11. The hole wall of the first vibration-damping hole 111 has an arc-shaped portion 1111 and a first convex peak portion 1112, a second convex peak portion 1113 and a third convex peak portion 1114 opposite to the arc-shaped portion 1111. The peak point of the second convex peak portion 1113 is higher than the first convex peak portion 1112 and the second convex peak portion 1113.
[0028] When the axial deflection of the bushing body 11 is less than or equal to the first deflection, the second convex peak portion 1113 and the arc-shaped portion 1111 are separated.
[0029] When the axial deflection of the bushing body 11 is greater than the first deflection and less than or equal to the second deflection, the second convex peak portion 1113 abuts against the arc portion 1111 .
[0030] When the axial deflection of the bushing body 11 is greater than the second deflection, the first convex peak portion 1112 , the second convex peak portion 1113 and the third convex peak portion 1114 are all in contact with the arc portion 1111 .
[0031] The first deflection is smaller than the second deflection.
[0032] It is understandable that if Figure 1 As shown, the bushing body 11 is provided with two first vibration-damping holes 111 at intervals in the radial direction. Both first vibration-damping holes 111 extend along the axial direction of the bushing body 11. When the bushing structure 1 is installed between the vehicle chassis and the lower arm 2 of the vehicle, the extension direction of the first vibration-damping holes 111 coincides with the height direction of the vehicle. Figure 1 As shown, the first vibration damping hole 111 is irregularly shaped. The hole wall of the first vibration damping hole 111 has an arc-shaped portion 1111. The arc-shaped portion 1111 extends radially along the bushing body 11. The two ends of the arc-shaped portion 1111 are respectively bent toward the inside of the bushing body 11, the first convex peak portion 1112 is connected to one of the turning points, and the third convex peak portion 1114 is connected to another turning point. The second convex peak portion 1113 is located between the first convex peak portion 1112 and the third convex peak portion 1114, and the first convex peak portion 1112, the second convex peak portion 1113 and the third convex peak portion 1114 are connected in sequence. As a result, the arc-shaped portion 1111 is respectively arranged opposite to the three convex peak portions.
[0033] Optionally, the two first vibration-damping holes 111 are symmetrically arranged along the forward direction of the vehicle. The two first vibration-damping holes 111 simultaneously provide vibration-proof protection for the vehicle chassis on the left and right sides of the vehicle chassis, ensuring that the force on the left and right sides of the vehicle chassis is balanced.
[0034] It is understandable that the deflection is used to measure the specific deformation degree of the bushing body 11 in a certain direction. In the embodiment of the present invention, the first deflection is 20% of the ultimate deflection of the bushing body 11 in the vertical direction. The second deflection is 60% of the ultimate deflection of the bushing body 11 in the vertical direction. The vertical direction refers to the axial direction of the first vibration damping hole 111 of the bushing body 11 in the installed state, which can also be understood as the height direction of the vehicle.
[0035] When the axial deflection of the bushing body 11 is less than or equal to the first deflection, that is, when the bushing body 11 is subjected to a small vibration impact from the road surface, the arc portion 1111 of each first vibration-damping hole 111 does not contact the corresponding first convex peak portion 1112, second convex peak portion 1113 and third convex peak portion 1114. At this time, the first vibration-damping hole 111 is in a through state, and the bushing body 11 has greater flexibility in the vehicle height direction, thereby blocking the vibration transmission between the lower arm 2 of the automobile and the vehicle chassis in the vertical direction, and improving the stability of the vehicle chassis.
[0036] When the axial deflection of the bushing body 11 is greater than the first deflection and less than or equal to the second deflection, the second peak portion 1113 of each first vibration damping hole 111 conflicts with its corresponding arc portion 1111. At this time, the flexibility of the first vibration damping hole 111 in the vertical direction is weakened, and the overall stiffness of the bushing body 11 is increased, thereby forming an effective support between the vehicle chassis and the lower arm 2 of the automobile, thereby alleviating the vibration impact of the lower arm 2 of the automobile on the vehicle chassis in the vertical direction.
[0037] When the axial deflection of the bushing body 11 is greater than the second deflection, the first convex peak 1112, the second convex peak 1113 and the third convex peak 1114 of each first vibration damping hole 111 simultaneously conflict with the corresponding arc portion 1111. At this time, the flexibility of the first vibration damping hole 111 in the vertical direction is further weakened, and the overall stiffness of the bushing body 11 is further increased, thereby forming a more stable support between the automobile lower control arm 2 and the vehicle body chassis, further alleviating the vibration impact of the automobile lower control arm 2 on the vehicle body chassis in the vertical direction.
[0038] The present invention provides a bushing structure 1, wherein two first vibration-damping holes 111 are distributed at intervals in the circumferential direction of a bushing body 11, and the first vibration-damping holes 111 extend along the axial direction of the bushing body 11. The bushing body 11 is installed between a lower arm 2 of an automobile and a chassis of a vehicle body. When the bushing body 11 has an axial deflection less than or equal to a first deflection, the first vibration-damping holes 111 are in a through state, and the bushing body 11 has greater flexibility in the height direction of the vehicle, thereby blocking the vibration transmission between the lower arm 2 of the automobile and the chassis of the vehicle body in the vertical direction; when the bushing body 11 has an axial deflection greater than the first deflection and less than or equal to the second deflection, the second convex peak portion 1113 abuts against the arc portion 1111, and the flexibility of the first vibration-damping hole 111 in the vertical direction is weakened, and the bushing body 11 The overall rigidity of the bushing body 11 is increased, thereby forming an effective support between the vehicle body chassis and the lower arm 2 of the automobile, thereby alleviating the vibration impact of the lower arm 2 of the automobile on the vehicle body chassis in the vertical direction; when the axial deflection of the bushing body 11 is greater than the second deflection, the first convex peak portion 1112, the second convex peak portion 1113 and the third convex peak portion 1114 are simultaneously in contact with the arc portion 1111, and the flexibility of the first vibration-damping hole 111 in the vertical direction is further weakened, and the overall rigidity of the bushing body 11 is further increased, thereby forming a more stable support between the lower arm 2 of the automobile and the vehicle body chassis, further alleviating the vibration impact of the lower arm 2 of the automobile on the vehicle body chassis in the vertical direction, and the entire bushing structure 1 has better buffering and shock-absorbing performance on the vehicle body chassis, thereby improving the vehicle's handling and stability.
[0039] Furthermore, in some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the bushing body 11 is provided with a second vibration damping hole 112. The second vibration damping hole 112 is located between the two first vibration damping holes 111. The second vibration damping hole 112 has two connected bending sections 1121. The two bending sections 1121 are symmetrically arranged along the forward direction of the vehicle, and both of the two bending sections 1121 face the hole wall of the through hole 113.
[0040] When the radial deflection of the bushing body 11 is greater than the third deflection, the two bending sections 1121 abut against each other.
[0041] Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, the second vibration damping hole 112 is C-shaped. The second vibration damping hole 112 is divided into two connected bending sections 1121. Each bending section 1121 is L-shaped. When the bushing body 11 is installed, the two bending sections 1121 are symmetrically arranged along the forward direction of the vehicle, so that the second vibration damping hole 112 forms a C-shaped vibration damping hole. Through this design, the bushing body 11 can form a buffering and vibration damping protection for the vehicle chassis in the longitudinal and transverse directions of the vehicle.
[0042] It should be noted that the third deflection is 40% of the limit deflection of the bushing body 11 in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. When the radial deflection of the bushing body 11 is less than or equal to the third deflection, the second vibration-damping hole 112 is in a through state, and the hole walls of the second vibration-damping hole 112 along its circumference do not contact each other, so that the bushing body 11 has greater flexibility in the longitudinal and lateral directions of the vehicle, thereby blocking the vibration transmission between the lower arm 2 of the automobile and the chassis in the horizontal direction, and improving the stability of the chassis.
[0043] When the radial deflection of the bushing body 11 is greater than the third deflection, the ends of the two bending sections 1121 abut against each other, thereby reducing the flexibility of the bushing body 11 in the horizontal direction and increasing the overall stiffness of the bushing body 11 in the horizontal direction, thereby effectively supporting the vehicle chassis and the lower control arm 2 of the automobile in the horizontal direction, thereby alleviating the vibration impact of the lower control arm 2 of the automobile on the vehicle chassis in the horizontal direction.
[0044] By providing the first vibration-damping hole 111 and the second vibration-damping hole 112 , the bushing body 11 can provide buffering protection for the vehicle chassis in the vertical and horizontal directions, thereby reducing the vibration and noise of the entire vehicle, improving the smoothness of vehicle handling, and enhancing the driving experience.
[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, there are two second vibration-damping holes 112. The two second vibration-damping holes 112 and the two first vibration-damping holes 111 are arranged alternately along the radial direction of the bushing body 11 to further ensure that the bushing body 11 can provide buffer protection for the vehicle chassis in both horizontal and vertical directions to ensure the stability of the vehicle.
[0046] Preferably, the two second vibration-damping holes 112 are symmetrically arranged along the lateral direction of the vehicle. The two second vibration-damping holes 112 simultaneously provide vibration-proof protection for the vehicle chassis at the front and rear sides, ensuring balanced force on the front and rear sides of the vehicle chassis.
[0047] In some embodiments, the bushing structure 1 further comprises a bearing bushing, wherein the bearing bushing has good wear resistance, corrosion resistance and lubricity, and can be a hydrophilic super-slip bearing bushing, such as a polyetheretherketone bearing bushing or a polytetrafluoroethylene bearing bushing.
[0048] The fixed shaft of the chassis is inserted into the bearing bushing to bear the weight and load of the fixed shaft through the bearing bushing. At the same time, the smooth surface of the bearing bushing ensures the smoothness of the connection between the bushing structure 1 and the fixed shaft, reducing the wear and loss of the bushing structure 1. At the same time, the bearing bushing has a centering function to prevent the fixed shaft from deflecting.
[0049] The hole wall of the through hole 113 and the outer side wall of the bearing shell are vulcanized to improve the reliability of the connection between the bushing body 11 and the bearing shell.
[0050] In some embodiments, the bushing structure 1 further comprises an outer bushing. The outer bushing is sleeved on the bushing body 11. The outer bushing is provided with a plurality of vibration-damping holes, and the plurality of vibration-damping holes are evenly spaced along the radial direction of the outer bushing.
[0051] The outer bushing is sleeved on the outside of the bushing body 11, and the outer bushing is made of a rubber material with excellent vibration reduction performance. The outer bushing is provided with a plurality of vibration reduction channels, which are evenly spaced along the radial direction of the outer bushing. The diameter and depth of each vibration reduction channel are precisely calculated to optimize its vibration reduction effect.
[0052] Optionally, there are eight vibration reduction holes, which are located at different positions of the outer bushing to form a uniform vibration reduction layout. This design can effectively absorb and disperse the vibration generated during the operation of the vehicle, thereby reducing the impact force on the bushing body 11 and its connecting parts.
[0053] In specific applications, the outer bushing is connected to the bushing body 11 by hot pressing or mechanical fixing to ensure a close fit between the two. The design of the vibration reduction channel improves the buffering performance of the entire bushing structure 1, significantly reduces the vibration noise of the entire vehicle, and improves the comfort and safety of the vehicle.
[0054] In some embodiments, the inner wall of the outer bushing is cold-fitted to the outer wall of the bushing body 11 to reduce the difficulty of installation, avoid damage to the bushing body 11, and enhance the reliability of the connection.
[0055] The bushing body 11 is made of high damping rubber material. When the bushing body 11 is subjected to external impact load, the bushing body 11 absorbs vibration energy through the damping effect of the first vibration-damping hole 111 and the second vibration-damping hole 112 and the high damping material, reduces vibration capacity, reduces vibration transmission, reduces vibration load on the vehicle chassis, and thus improves the reliability of transmission between the lower arm 2 of the automobile and the vehicle chassis.
[0056] The high damping material may be rubber or foam, etc. The high damping material has a damping effect, can absorb vibration energy, and reduce the transmission of vibration.
[0057] In a specific embodiment, the bushing structure 1 provided by the present invention and the bushing structure in the prior art were respectively subjected to a rough cement road surface smoothness test, and the comparison results are shown in the following table:
[0058] For the bushing structure in the prior art, at a lateral acceleration of 0.2g, the difference in the side slip angles between the front and rear axles of the vehicle is 0.1483 (deg), and the understeer degree is 0.7415 (deg / g); for the bushing structure provided in the embodiment of the present invention, at a lateral acceleration of 0.2g, the difference in the side slip angles between the front and rear axles of the vehicle is 0.2316 (deg), and the understeer degree is 1.158 (deg / g), thereby improving the understeer degree and significantly reducing the acceleration of the center of mass of the vehicle body in the vertical direction, thereby improving the handling stability of the entire vehicle.
[0059] Second, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the present invention also provides a lower swing arm assembly for an automobile, comprising: a lower swing arm 2 for an automobile, a ball pin 3, a sleeve structure 4 and the bushing structure 1 as described above. The ball pin 3 is rotatably mounted on the first end of the lower swing arm 2 for connecting to the wheel axle. The bushing body 11 is fixedly mounted on the second end of the lower swing arm 2 for connecting to the fixed axle of the vehicle chassis. The sleeve structure 4 is fixedly mounted on the third end of the lower swing arm 2 for an automobile.
[0060] The specific structures of the sleeve structure 4 and the bushing structure 1 are the same.
[0061] The automobile lower arm assembly is an important component in the automobile suspension system, which is used to connect the wheels and the vehicle body. The main function of the automobile lower arm 2 is to support the vehicle body, control the movement trajectory of the wheels, and absorb the vibration energy of the road surface, thereby improving the stability and comfort of the vehicle body. Among them, the automobile lower arm assembly is mainly connected to the vehicle body chassis through the bushing structure 1 fixed on the automobile lower arm 2, and the ball pin 3 of the automobile lower arm assembly is connected to the wheel axle. The bushing structure 1 absorbs the vibration of the road surface and reduces the impact energy of the vehicle body, thereby improving the stability and comfort of the vehicle.
[0062] Since the automobile lower arm assembly includes a bushing structure 1, and the specific structure of the bushing structure 1 refers to the above embodiment, the automobile lower arm assembly of this embodiment includes all the technical solutions of the above embodiment, and therefore at least has all the beneficial effects achieved by all the technical solutions of the above embodiment, which will not be repeated here one by one.
[0063] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
