[0002] The current automobile shock absorbers are suitable for rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive; they are installed between the rear axle and the drive shaft. The torsional vibration of the drive shaft and the rear axle is one of the important factors causing vehicle resonance. Adding a torsional vibration damper to the drive shaft can improve the torsional vibration of the transmission system, which is beneficial to improving the NVH performance of the vehicle.

[0003] With the continuous improvement of consumption level, more people choose to buy high-end rear-wheel / four-wheel drive. The requirements for the ride comfort of the vehicle and the comfort of the driver and passengers are getting higher and higher. Vibration and noise can easily make the driver tired and affect the driving safety of the vehicle. The torsional vibration damper can reduce the natural frequency of the torsional vibration of the transmission system, suppress the corresponding amplitude of the resonance, and eliminate the idle noise of the transmission. For example, the torsional vibration damper disclosed in patent publication number CN107606053A includes a tubular skeleton, a damping shaft core arranged inside the tubular skeleton, and the torsional vibration damper also includes a plurality of elastic parts connected between the tubular skeleton and the damping shaft core. The plurality of elastic parts are arranged at intervals along the outer surface of the damping shaft core, and the axial projections of the plurality of elastic parts at the ends of the torsional vibration damper are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction. This type of shock absorber is prone to vibration and abnormal noise due to assembly eccentricity during installation and use, resulting in frequent vibration and noise. Therefore, it is necessary to solve the vibration and noise problems of the whole vehicle without changing the original transmission system structure. Utility Model Content

[0029] The drive shaft torsional damper in this embodiment needs to be designed with a bushing that can be replaced, adjusted, and optimized in four directions to meet the customer's vehicle installation and performance requirements to meet the performance requirements of different road tests. The existing process can meet the production and processing, and the existing production process and skeleton structure can meet the manufacturing. To meet the above requirements, the utility model proposes a new bushing structure that is convenient for adjusting performance.

[0030] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the transmission shaft torsional damper structure in this embodiment is mainly composed of a damper body 10, a transmission body 20 and a connecting flange 30, which are combined between the rear axle and the transmission shaft to achieve vibration reduction and noise reduction.

[0031] Combination Figure 4-Figure 6As shown, specifically, the shock absorber body 10 includes an inner skeleton 11, an elastomer 113 and an outer ring body 114. The inner skeleton 11 includes a connecting surface 111 and an outer wall surface 112 arranged around the connecting surface. The elastomer 113 is arranged on the outer wall surface 112, and the outer ring body 114 is arranged on the elastomer 113. The three are coaxially arranged. The elastomer 113 is a rubber structure, which is connected between the inner skeleton 11 and the outer ring body 114 through high-temperature vulcanization of a mold. After vulcanization, it has high elasticity and adhesion, and can meet the stiffness and strength in different directions.

[0032] A first opening 101 is provided at the center of the first connecting surface 111 , and the first opening 101 and the first connecting surface 111 are co-centered.

[0033] Here, the rubber body adopts the heat-resistant material EPDM, which effectively improves the resonance heating and avoids the failure of the rubber body due to the increase of the temperature of the rubber body.

[0034] In addition, the transmission body 20 includes a connecting seat 21, and one side of the connecting seat 21 has a flat connecting surface 211. A connecting ring 212 is protruded on the connecting surface 211, and the first opening 101 is for the connecting ring 212 to be inserted.

[0036] Here, the connection seat 21 is connected to the universal joint 22 , and is connected to the transmission shaft via the universal joint 22 .

[0037] Furthermore, the connecting flange 30 and the connecting seat 21 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the connecting surface 111, and are connected to the rear axle through the connecting flange 30. The end of the connecting flange 30 facing the connecting surface 111 has an inward recess and forms a connecting groove 31, and the connecting groove 31 is for the connecting ring 212 to be inserted. The inner diameter of the connecting groove 31 is consistent with the inner diameter of the first opening 101, and there is a spacing between the connecting ring 212 and the bottom of the connecting groove 31.

[0038] At the same time, a locking piece 40 is inserted into the connecting seat 21, and specifically, a locking piece 40 is provided at each of the four corners of the connecting surface 211. The locking piece 40 is a bolt structure, and the locking piece 40 is configured to continue to pass through the connecting surface 111 and the connecting flange 30, thereby locking and connecting the three through the locking piece 40.

[0039] The utility model realizes the positioning and plug-in matching of the concave and convex structures through the structure of the first opening 101, the connecting groove 31 and the connecting ring 212, which can improve the assembly efficiency and accuracy and reduce the difficulty of installation.
