Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pistons, in particular to an air-floating piston for a reciprocating compressor. Background Art

[0002] Different from the traditional circulation theory, the circulation theory adopted by the acoustic energy compressor is a more efficient thermodynamic theory. With the continuous development of new technologies, acoustic energy compressors are increasingly valued by technicians. In existing compressors, the device structure is complex and is equipped with a regenerator. Friction is generated during operation, which increases power consumption and easily damages the body. An air suspension state design is adopted for the reciprocating motion of the piston. As an important component of the acoustic energy compressor, the research and development of the air floating structure is particularly important.

[0003] The application number is CN201922398216.9, which discloses a piston and a piston assembly, including a piston body, a cavity is provided on the top of the piston body, and a heat sink is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the cavity, an arc groove is provided on the bottom of the heat sink, and a heat dissipation hole is provided on the inner surface of the cavity, and the angle between the heat dissipation hole and the cross section of the piston body is an acute angle. The piston and the piston assembly, through the cooperation of the heat sink, the arc groove, the heat dissipation hole, the L-shaped stopper, the connecting rod and the pneumatic cylinder, enable the pneumatic cylinder to push and drive the heat sink to move up and down, bring external air into the cavity, and then squeeze the hot air in the piston body, and discharge the hot air through the heat dissipation hole, and by providing the arc groove, the heat sink can carry more external air, carry external cold air into the cavity of the piston body through the heat sink, and discharge the hot air in the cavity through the heat dissipation hole, so as to achieve a better heat dissipation effect and extend the service life of the piston body.

[0004] This arrangement lacks protection for the bottom of the piston. When the piston is compressed, the bottom of the piston collides with the bottom of the cavity. Under long-term collision, the bottom of the piston head and the bottom of the cavity are easily deformed, causing damage to the device. Utility Model Content

This arrangement avoids direct contact between the piston head and the cylinder by adding a wear-resistant ring, reduces the friction generated when the piston head moves, and thereby increases the service life of the device.

[0008] Furthermore; a dustproof mechanism is arranged on the left side of the cylinder, and the dustproof mechanism includes a second flange plate contactingly arranged on the left side of the first flange plate, the first flange plate and the second flange plate are fixedly connected by bolts, and a second sealing ring is arranged between the first flange plate and the second flange plate. Such an arrangement ensures the sealing between the first flange plate and the second flange plate by the second sealing ring.

[0009] Furthermore; a conical tube is fixedly connected to the side of the second flange away from the first flange, a dust ring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the conical tube away from the second flange, and the piston rod is slidably connected inside the conical tube. This arrangement uses the dust ring to prevent external dust from entering the cylinder, which increases the friction of the piston during movement and damages the device.

[0010] Furthermore, an adjustment mechanism is provided inside the inlet and outlet pipes, and the adjustment mechanism includes a screw threadedly connected to the inside of the outlet pipe, and the left end of the screw is fixedly connected to a baffle rod. This arrangement is to change the position of the baffle rod by loosening or tightening the screw and limit the baffle rod.

[0011] Furthermore, a third sealing ring is sleeved on one end of the stop rod close to the screw, and two one-way air outlet valves are connected to the outer wall of the air outlet pipe.

[0012] Furthermore, the third sealing ring is located on the right side of the one-way air outlet valve, and two one-way air outlet valves are provided. The one-way air outlet valves are symmetrically arranged with the air outlet pipe as the center. This arrangement is to adjust the flow rate of the air outlet through the baffle rod.

[0013] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] In the utility model, the piston rod drives the piston head to move back and forth in the cylinder, thereby compressing the gas. The wear-resistant ring is added to avoid direct contact between the buffer head and the inside of the cylinder, thereby reducing the friction during movement. At the same time, when the piston head moves back and forth, it will drive the buffer pad to move back and forth. When moving to the bottom of the cylinder, the piston head has a certain inertia. The buffer pad can slow down the collision force between the piston head and the right wall inside the cylinder, preventing the piston head from colliding with the right side of the cylinder and causing deformation, thereby increasing the service life of the device. The first flange and the second flange are bolted together to facilitate the separation of the tapered tube and the cylinder in the later stage, thereby facilitating the maintenance of the device in the later stage. At the same time, a dust ring is set on the left side of the tapered tube, which can effectively block external dust from entering the cylinder and prevent the friction during the movement of the piston from increasing, resulting in damage to the device. The screw drives the stopper rod to move, changing the gap between the stopper rod and the valve port of the one-way air outlet valve, so that the air flow rate of the one-way air outlet valve outlet can be changed according to demand.
