[0002] As an important device in hydraulic system, plunger pump has a wide application in engineering machinery and aerospace fields, and the swash plate is a key component of the plunger pump, and its support background involves the working principle of the plunger pump, the structure of the swash plate and its function, etc.
[0003] The support mode of the swash plate is crucial to the performance and stability of the plunger pump, and the common swash plate support modes mainly include direct fixed support, sliding bearing support and rolling support. The direct fixed support is mainly used for constant angle quantitative pump, and the swash plate can be directly fixed on the pump shell or the pump cover, and a cylindrical pin is used to prevent it from rotating. This support mode has a simple structure, but the flexibility of adjustment is poor. The sliding bearing support is mainly applied to the non-coaxial industrial swash plate pump, but they need a large torque to adjust the variable, and are not suitable for occasions where the flow needs to be frequently changed. The rolling support has the advantages of compact structure and sensitive response, and has small control dead zone and hysteresis, and can be adapted to the horizontal and vertical arrangement of the variable cylinder. This support mode is most widely used in the fields of engineering machinery and aerospace, but its structure is usually a non-standard special-shaped bearing, and the positioning effect of the swash plate is not ideal, and the processing difficulty and cost are high.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0031] The purpose and effect of the application will become more apparent in the following detailed description of the application according to the drawings and preferred embodiments, and the application will be further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the application and do not limit the application.
[0032] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 indicated, a swash plate support structure of a swash plate type plunger pump includes a housing 1, a check ring 2, an adjusting washer 3, and a rolling bearing 5.
[0033] The housing 1 includes a bearing mounting hole 101, a check ring groove 102, a semicircular notch 103, and a bearing seat 104. The housing 1 is integrally provided with two coaxial bearing seats 104 on the mounting section of the plunger pump. This integrated structure design reduces the assembly error of parts and improves the working stability of the plunger pump. The bearing mounting hole 101 is provided at the shaft center of the bearing seat 104, and the check ring groove 102 is provided in the bearing mounting hole 101 for mounting the check ring 2. The check ring 2 is preferably a hole elastic check ring, which has a notched annular structure. The rolling bearing 5 is mounted in the bearing mounting hole 101 and is gap-fitted with the bearing mounting hole 101, and the rolling bearing 5 is limited by the check ring 2. The outer circular shaft 402 fixedly connected to the two ends of the swash plate 4 in the radial direction is respectively mounted in the inner ring hole of the two rolling bearings 5 and is fixedly connected to the inner ring hole by interference fit. The adjusting washer 3 is mounted between the swash plate 4 and the rolling bearing 5 and is tightly fixed by the swash plate 4 and the rolling bearing 5, which is used to adjust the play gap between the swash plate 4 and the rolling bearing 5 and avoid the radial movement of the swash plate 4.
[0034] As Figure 3 indicated, the rolling bearing 5 has a split structure, which includes a bearing outer ring 501, a cylindrical roller 502, and a bearing inner ring 503 arranged coaxially from outside to inside. The cylindrical roller 502 has a plurality of rollers arranged between the bearing outer ring 501 and the bearing inner ring 503 in the circumferential direction, and does not have a retainer to ensure that it can bear a larger load.
[0035] One side edge of the inner hole wall surface of the bearing outer ring 501 is provided with an annular stop edge one 50102 for axially limiting the cylindrical roller 502. A relief groove one 50101 is provided at the included angle between the stop edge one 50102 and the inner hole of the bearing outer ring 501 to facilitate grinding of the inner hole of the bearing outer ring 501 during finishing and avoid interference at the included angle with the cylindrical roller 502.
[0036] One side edge of the outer circumferential surface of the bearing inner ring 503 is provided with an annular stop edge two 50301 for axially limiting the cylindrical roller 502. A relief groove two 50302 is provided at the included angle between the stop edge two 50301 and the outer circumferential surface of the bearing inner ring 503 to facilitate grinding of the outer circle of the bearing inner ring 503 during finishing and avoid interference at the included angle with the cylindrical roller 502.
[0037] During assembly, one side of the bearing outer ring 501 provided with the stop edge one 50102 and one side of the bearing inner ring 503 provided with the stop edge two 50301 are both located on the outer side of the rolling bearing 5, which axially limits the cylindrical roller 502 from two directions.
[0038] As shown in Figure 4 , in addition to the outer shaft 402 fixed at the radial ends of the swash plate 4, the swash plate 4 also includes a tool withdrawal groove 401. The tool withdrawal groove 401 is provided at the angle between the outer shaft 402 and the end face of the main body structure of the swash plate 4, so as to facilitate grinding of the outer shaft 402 during finishing and avoid interference between the bearing inner ring 503 and the swash plate 4 at the angle.
[0039] The assembly process of the swash plate 4 and the swash plate support structure of the swash plate type piston pump will be described below, which specifically includes the following steps:
[0040] (1) First, measure the distance H1 between the two retaining ring grooves 102 on the housing 1, the distance H2 between the outer shafts 402 at the two ends of the swash plate 4, and the sum H3 and H4 of the thicknesses of the two rolling bearings 5 and their corresponding retaining rings 2, respectively, and then calculate H max =(H1-H2-H3-H4-0.1) / 2, H min =(H1-H2-H3-H4-0.2) / 2, to obtain the thickness range of the adjusting washer 3 as [H min ,H max ].
[0041] Two sets of adjusting washers 3 are selected and arranged on the outer shafts 402 at the left and right ends of the swash plate 4, respectively, each set including a plurality of adjusting washers 3, and the number of stacked pieces is selected according to the actual situation to adapt to different clearances between the swash plate 4 and the rolling bearing 5. The thicknesses of the two sets are H m and H n , and satisfy H max ≥H m ≥H min , H max ≥H n ≥H min ; m=1, 2, …, M, n=1, 2, …, N, M is the total number of adjusting washers 3 in one set, and N is the total number of adjusting washers 3 in the other set. The total thickness difference of the adjusting washers 3 stacked on the outer shafts 402 at the two ends of the swash plate 4 according to the actual situation cannot exceed 0.02 mm. In this embodiment, as shown in Figure 5 , H1=120 mm, H2=93 mm, H3=H4=13.4 mm are measured, and H max =0.05 mm, H min =0.
[0042] (2) First, the two sets of adjusting washers 3 selected are respectively sleeved on the outer shafts 402 at the two ends of the swash plate 4, and then the two bearing inner rings 503 are press-fitted on the outer shafts 402 of the swash plate 4 until the adjusting washers 3 are tightly pressed, and the retaining edge 2 50301 of the bearing inner ring 503 of the rolling bearing 5 is directed towards the axis direction of the housing 1.
[0043] (3) Fix the swash plate 4 containing the inner ring 503 of the bearing in the bearing mounting hole 101 using a tooling, and then install the outer ring 501 and cylindrical roller 502 of the two rolling bearings 5 from both ends of the bearing housing 104 into the bearing mounting hole 101 to achieve an interference fit.
[0044] (4) Install the two retaining rings 2 from both ends of the bearing housing 104 into the retaining ring grooves 102 on the bearing housing 104 to limit the rolling bearing 5.
[0045] like Figure 6 As shown, after the swashplate 4 is assembled on the support structure, it mainly bears three loads (active loads) from top to bottom: F, F1, and F2, and the supporting forces F3 and F4 (passive loads) from the rolling bearing 3 from bottom to top on the swashplate 4. Therefore, the load-bearing location on the housing is mainly the lower semicircular arc on the bearing seat 104 corresponding to the semicircular notch 103. Based on this force analysis, a semicircular notch 103 can be milled flat on the upper end of the side of the bearing seat 104 near the axis of the housing 1 to facilitate the installation of the swashplate 4 and reduce weight.
[0046] It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the above descriptions are merely preferred examples of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention. Although the invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing examples, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing examples or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. All modifications and equivalent substitutions made within the spirit and principles of the invention should be included within the scope of protection of the invention.
