Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of hydraulic cylinders, and in particular to a spiral swing cylinder which is self-locking at any position throughout the entire stroke. Background Art
[0002] The spiral swing cylinder is a hydraulic actuator that converts hydraulic energy into mechanical energy and performs the required rotational reciprocating or other forms of motion. The spiral swing cylinder uses the helical thread meshing structure to transmit pressure in the linear motion of the piston using hydraulic oil, driving the piston to rotate along the spiral rod and generate a swinging motion. This design eliminates the transmission gap in the traditional swing mechanism and ensures the smoothness of the movement. With the development of industry, the swing cylinder is not only required to have a compact structure and a large swing angle, but also has higher and higher requirements for its output torque and transmission efficiency.
[0003] Chinese patent CN112283198B discloses a mechanical self-locking spiral swing oil cylinder, including a spiral swing oil cylinder body, a locking end cover, a self-locking cylinder barrel, a self-locking piston, a tail cover, a locking spring, a spring sleeve, a steel ball, a fixing spring and a control bolt. The spiral swing cylinder barrel is provided with oil ports A, oil ports B and control ports C, and the control port C is connected to the oil ports A and B through a valve group. The self-locking piston is located in the self-locking cylinder barrel, and the interior of the self-locking cylinder barrel is divided into an unlocking chamber and a locking chamber that are not connected to each other. The unlocking chamber is connected to the control port C, and the locking chamber is connected to the unlocking chamber through a valve group. The self-locking piston reciprocates under the action of the medium pressure between the unlocking chamber and the locking chamber. A locking pin is processed on one side of the self-locking piston, and an anti-rotation hole is processed on the self-locking cylinder barrel. The invention automatically realizes the mechanical locking and unlocking of the spiral swing oil cylinder by setting a simple mechanical structure, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0004] During use of the mechanical self-locking spiral swing cylinder in the above-mentioned patent, when the locking pin is inserted into the locking hole on the spiral swing cylinder, the spiral swing cylinder is immediately locked. When unlocking, it is necessary to fill the cylinder with oil to use the oil pressure to drive the self-locking piston to drive the locking pin to come out. The corresponding oil filling will also act on the cylinder piston, strengthening the swinging tendency of the spiral swing cylinder, and the radial pressure of the locking hole on the locking pin is increased. In addition, when the external load of the spiral swing cylinder is large, the radial pressure of the locking hole on the locking pin is greater, so the locking pin is not easy to come out, and it is easy to cause safety problems; when the spiral swing cylinder is rotated to the extreme position and needs to be locked, it is also necessary to release the pressure in the cylinder to achieve locking. When the spiral swing cylinder moves relatively frequently, it is often unable to respond quickly during the secondary action after pressure relief, and it is necessary to input sufficient oil for pressurization before it can operate stably.

[0009] Furthermore, both ends of the inner cavity of the U-shaped control tube are provided with limiting sliding grooves corresponding to the elastic control plug, and the top wall of the limiting sliding groove on the left side is far away from the elastic control plug.
[0010] Furthermore, an end cover is movably mounted on the right end of the cylinder body, and notches corresponding to the U-shaped control tube and the L-shaped elastic force adjustment plate are respectively opened on the left side of the end cover.

[0020] To make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
[0021] Embodiment 1, as Figure 1-Figure 8 As shown, a spiral swing oil cylinder with full stroke and arbitrary position self-locking comprises a cylinder body 1, a rotating shaft 2 is rotatably penetrated in the middle of the cylinder body 1, a worm gear ring 3 is rotatably sleeved on the right end of the rotating shaft 2, a clamping groove 31 is opened on the inner wall of the worm gear ring 3, a pressure sensor 32 is arranged between the worm gear ring 3 and the rotating shaft 2, an adjusting worm 33 is arranged at the rear end of the worm gear ring 3, an oil pipe 4 is fixedly connected to both the upper and lower sides of the right end of the cylinder body 1, a contraction section is arranged on the left side of the oil pipe 4, a U-shaped control pipe 41 whose left end is connected to the contraction section is fixedly connected to the oil pipe 4, and elastic control plugs 42 are slidably connected to the two ends of the inner cavity of the U-shaped control pipe 41 respectively; A pin 23 movably engaged with the slot 31 is provided on the right side of the rotating shaft 2, a wedge slot 25 is provided on the left side of the pin 23, an energy storage assembly is provided on the periphery of the cylinder body 1, an L-shaped elastic force adjustment plate 6 is provided on the front side of the cylinder body 1, and an adjustment guide ring 62 capable of axial movement is provided on the periphery of the right side of the rotating shaft 2, and there are inclined surfaces between the right end of the adjustment guide ring 62 and the wedge slot 25 that can abut against each other.
[0022] The adjusting worm 33 is rotatably connected to the right wall of the cylinder body 1 , and the adjusting worm 33 is driven by a driving motor arranged on the right wall of the cylinder body 1 . The pressure sensor 32 controls the driving motor to rotate the adjusting worm 33 through feedback control.
[0023] When the spiral swing cylinder is in use, the two U-shaped control tubes 41 are also filled with hydraulic oil. When the hydraulic oil in the oil pipe 4 does not flow, the hydraulic oil in the oil pipe 4 exerts equal pressure on the elastic control plugs 42 at both ends of the U-shaped control tube 41. The elastic control plugs 42 at both ends are stable and stationary under the action of their own elastic force. When hydraulic oil is input through one oil pipe 4 and hydraulic oil is returned through the other oil pipe 4, the hydraulic oil flows rapidly, thereby generating negative pressure at the contraction section of the oil pipe 4 according to the Bernoulli principle, and the elastic control plug 42 on the left is stretched to move toward the contraction section, thereby driving the pin 23 The pin 23 is not easily dislodged from the card slot 31, and the corresponding hydraulic oil causes the energy storage component on the corresponding side to automatically perform elastic buffering of the hydraulic oil, absorb the flowing hydraulic oil to stabilize the pressure, and avoid the hydraulic oil from exerting a large force on the cylinder piston, thereby suppressing the sudden movement of the cylinder piston. At the same time, the movement of the cylinder piston causes the shaft 2 to rotate, thereby preventing the card slot 31 from exerting excessive radial pressure on the pin 23, and the pin 23 is not easy to dislodge. The corresponding hydraulic oil causes the energy storage component to move and drive the L-shaped elastic force adjustment plate 6 to make the adjustment guide ring 62 squeeze the wedge groove 25 on the pin 23, and the wedge groove Based on the inclined surface abutting against the adjusting guide ring 62, the pin 23 is assisted to be disengaged from the slot 31, which is safe, reliable and rapid for unlocking the shaft 2, and avoids the pin 23 and the slot 31 from being stuck. After the energy storage component is actuated, as the unlocking of the auxiliary shaft 2 is completed, the energy storage component automatically discharges the oil from the cylinder 1 to reset it, and the corresponding L-shaped elastic adjustment plate 6 uses its own elastic force to drive the adjusting guide ring 62 to reset, avoiding affecting the secondary locking of the shaft 2. When the shaft 2 is subsequently unlocked and operated, the pressure sensor 32 automatically controls the adjusting worm according to the change of the extrusion pressure of the shaft 2. The rod 33 drives the worm gear ring 3 to rotate, so that the extrusion pressure of the pressure sensor 32 always remains consistent with the continuous pressure, and the slot 31 is always opposite to the pin 23. When the cylinder stops operating, the worm gear ring 3 automatically adjusts into place, the hydraulic oil in the oil pipe 4 stops flowing, and the elastic control plug 42 automatically resets itself using its own elastic force, and drives the pin 23 to reset and re-enter the slot 31, locking the rotating shaft 2, and cooperating with the worm gear ring 3 to self-lock under the action of the adjusting worm 33, thereby realizing fast and stable self-locking at any position without the need for pressure relief, and the secondary operation can respond quickly.
[0024] Embodiment 2, based on the above embodiment, a groove is opened at the top of the right end of the rotating shaft 2, and the inner wall of the worm gear ring 3 is provided with a protrusion extending into the groove, and the pressure sensor 32 is fixedly connected between the inner wall of the groove and the protrusion. There are two pressure sensors 32 and they are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the protrusion.
[0025] Initially, the pressure sensors 32 on both sides are subjected to the same pressure. Subsequently, no matter in which direction the rotating shaft 2 rotates, there is always a decompression effect on the pressure sensor 32 in that direction and a pressurization effect on the pressure sensor 32 in the opposite direction, so that it is convenient for the feedback control drive motor to drive the adjusting worm 33 to adjust the rotation of the worm gear ring 3 in the same direction as the rotating shaft 2, and when the pressures corresponding to the two pressure sensors 32 are the same, the slot 31 is always opposite to the pin 23, so that the cylinder can achieve self-locking at any position.
[0026] Embodiment 3, based on the above embodiment, both ends of the inner cavity of the U-shaped control tube 41 are provided with limiting slide grooves corresponding to the elastic control plug 42, and the top wall of the left limiting slide groove is far away from the elastic control plug 42.
[0027] Through the design of the limiting slide groove, the hydraulic oil pressure fluctuation in the oil pipe 4 is avoided, which causes the elastic control plug 42 to move with an excessive amplitude, thereby ensuring safe use. At the same time, there is a spatial margin on the top of the left elastic control plug 42, which ensures that the elastic control plug 42 can move a fixed distance toward the contraction section under the action of negative pressure.
[0028] Embodiment 4, on the basis of the above embodiment, an end cover 7 is movably mounted on the right end of the cylinder body 1, and notches corresponding to the U-shaped control tube 41 and the L-shaped elastic force adjustment plate 6 are respectively opened on the left side of the end cover 7.
[0029] This design facilitates protection of the worm gear ring 3, the adjusting worm 33, the pressure sensor 32, the U-shaped piston control rod 43, etc., ensuring safe use. At the same time, the notch design facilitates the end cover 7 to be disassembled to the right for equipment maintenance.
[0030] Embodiment 5, on the basis of the above embodiment, a cross slot is provided on the right side of the rotating shaft 2, an adjusting column 21 is slidably inserted on the right side of the cross slot, and oblique slots 22 in opposite directions are provided on the upper and lower sides of the adjusting column 21, the number of pins 23 and the number of slots 31 are the same and both are two, the two pins 23 are slidably inserted on the front and rear sides of the cross slot, the adjacent sides of the two pins 23 are respectively provided with notches adapted to the adjusting column 21, and the two notches are respectively fixedly connected with pin protrusions 24 that are movably engaged with the corresponding oblique slots 22; The right end of the adjusting column 21 is rotatably connected to a shaft sleeve 44 , on which a U-shaped piston control rod 43 is fixedly inserted, and the U-shaped piston control rod 43 is slidably inserted between the two U-shaped control tubes 41 .
[0031] Initially, the piston part of the U-shaped piston control rod 43 is located between the two elastic control plugs 42 in the U-shaped control tube 41. When hydraulic oil passes through the contraction section of the oil pipe 4 quickly and generates negative pressure, the elastic control plug 42 on the left is stretched and moves toward the contraction section, while the elastic control plug 42 on the right is compressed and moves in the opposite direction. The hydraulic oil in the U-shaped control tube 41 drives the U-shaped piston control rod 43 to move the shaft sleeve 44 to the left, and the adjusting column 21 drives the inclined groove 22 to move to the left. The inclined groove 22 drives the upper and lower pin protrusions 24 to make the pins 23 on both sides move toward each other, and the pins 23 automatically escape from the slots 31. In this process, the negative pressure generated by the contraction sections of the two oil pipes 4 is used to simultaneously apply control force on the pins 23, and the control is reliable and stable. By utilizing the rotation properties of the adjusting column 21 and the shaft sleeve 44, when the rotating shaft 2 is rotated to any angle, the rotating shaft 2 can be controlled to be unlocked.
[0032] Embodiment 6. On the basis of the above embodiments, the energy storage assembly includes an arc-shaped energy storage sealing cylinder 5 fixedly connected to both sides of the periphery of the cylinder body 1, an oil hole 51 is opened between the energy storage sealing cylinder 5 and the top wall of the cylinder body 1, and the two oil holes 51 are respectively located on both sides of the oil cylinder piston, and an arc-shaped elastic piston rod 52 is slidably connected in the energy storage sealing cylinder 5, and the piston part of the elastic piston rod 52 is located in front of the oil hole 51, the upper oil pipe 4 is connected to the top of the inner cavity of the right energy storage sealing cylinder 5, and an oil groove 11 is arranged between the lower oil pipe 4 and the top of the left energy storage sealing cylinder 5, and the oil groove 11 is composed of a straight groove part opened on the lower wall of the cylinder body 1 and a curved groove part opened on the left wall of the cylinder body 1.
[0033] When in use, the energy storage sealing cylinder 5 and the cavity on one side of the elastic piston rod 52 are filled with nitrogen. When hydraulic oil is input into the oil pipe 4 on the upper side, the hydraulic oil enters the energy storage sealing cylinder 5 on the right. With the rapid delivery of the hydraulic oil, the oil pressure increases rapidly. Since the hydraulic oil is delivered along the length direction of the energy storage sealing cylinder 5, the hydraulic oil first squeezes the elastic piston rod 52, and the elastic piston rod 52 absorbs most of the pressure increment and moves downward. However, since the oil hole 51 leading to the inside of the cylinder body 1 is relatively perpendicular to the flow direction of the hydraulic oil, the hydraulic oil cannot It quickly enters the cylinder body 1. Correspondingly, when the hydraulic oil is input into the oil pipe 4 on the lower side, the hydraulic oil enters the energy storage sealing cylinder 5 on the left through the oil groove 11. The hydraulic oil is also transported along the length direction of the energy storage sealing cylinder 5. The oil hole 51 leading to the inside of the cylinder body 1 is also relatively perpendicular to the flow direction of the hydraulic oil. The hydraulic oil cannot quickly enter the cylinder body 1, so that the energy storage component is used for elastic buffering, which relatively delays the movement of the cylinder piston and avoids the cylinder piston being subjected to the instantaneous high-pressure impact of the hydraulic oil and immediately moving to drive the rotating shaft 2 to swing suddenly.
[0034] A avoidance groove 12 is opened on the front side of the cylinder body 1, and the L-shaped elastic adjustment plate 6 is slidably engaged in the avoidance groove 12. The bottom of the elastic piston rod 52 passes through the energy storage sealing tube 5 and is movably abutted against the L-shaped elastic adjustment plate 6. The right end of the L-shaped elastic adjustment plate 6 is fixedly connected with a screw sleeve 61, and the adjustment guide ring 62 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the screw sleeve 61.
[0035] Furthermore, a symmetrical guide rod 63 is fixedly connected to the right end of the cylinder body 1 , and the adjusting guide ring 62 is slidably sleeved between the guide rods 63 , and the adjusting guide ring 62 is movably sleeved on the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 2 .
[0036] When any energy storage component is in operation, any elastic piston rod 52 can move downward to push the L-shaped elastic adjustment plate 6 to drive the screw sleeve 61 to deflect, and the adjustment guide ring 62 threadedly connected to the screw sleeve 61 is thereby driven to move to the right along the guide rod 63. Therefore, no matter how the hydraulic oil flows, the adjustment guide ring 62 can squeeze the wedge groove 25 to assist the pin 23 to disengage from the slot 31. When controlling the adjustment guide ring 62 to assist the pin 23 to disengage from the slot 31, the shaft 2 will not swing immediately due to the action of the energy storage component, thereby relatively reducing the radial pressure of the slot 31 on the pin 23, making it easier for the pin 23 to stably and reliably disengage.
[0037] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables one skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be apparent to one skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but rather to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
