[0002] Disc spring is a special spring that looks like a circular gasket. It can provide sufficient elastic extension by stacking a considerable number of disc springs. Because of its variable stiffness characteristics and compact installation, it is widely used in mechanical equipment industry, petroleum industry, automobile industry, aerospace industry and other fields.

[0003] The existing butterfly spring has no load limiting structure when in use. Since the butterfly spring bears static or dynamic loads acting in the axial direction at the upper inner edge and the lower outer edge, it is deformed after being compressed to generate an elastic load. In addition, there is no load limiting structure. When the butterfly spring is overloaded, it is easy for the butterfly spring to be excessively deformed and lose its elastic function. The stability is poor and the practicality is not high. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The implementation of the utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and examples.

[0023] As attached Figure 1 To Attachment Figure 6 As shown:

[0024] Embodiment 1: The utility model provides a butterfly spring with an overload protection function, including an installation component 1 and a butterfly spring 3, the installation component 1 includes a mounting column 101 and a positioning base 103, the mounting column 101 is fixedly installed on the top of the positioning base 103, and the butterfly spring 3 is plugged into the outside of the mounting column 101; the installation component 1 also includes a force-bearing pressure cover 102, the force-bearing pressure cover 102 is plugged into the top of the mounting column 101; the load limiting component 2, the load limiting component 2 includes a regulating rod 201, a load limiting seat 202 and a locking block 203, the top and bottom of the regulating rod 201 are respectively rotatably connected to the inside of the force-bearing pressure cover 102 and the positioning base 103, the load limiting seat 202 is plugged into the inside of the mounting column 101, and the locking block 203 is plugged into the top of the regulating rod 201.

[0025] Among them, a track block 2021 is provided on the side of the load limiting seat 202, and a track groove 1011 is provided inside the mounting column 101, and the track block 2021 is inserted into the track groove 1011. This design enables the track groove 1011 to limit the moving trajectory of the load limiting seat 202 inside the mounting column 101 through the track block 2021, so that the load limiting seat 202 will not be skewed, twisted, or rotated during movement, causing the device to be stuck and fail, and it is stable to use.

[0026] Among them, a load-limiting block 1021 is provided inside the stress-bearing pressure cover 102, and the load-limiting block 1021 is inserted into the inside of the track groove 1011, and the load-limiting block 1021 is located at the top of the track block 2021. In use, when the installation component 1 is in normal use, that is, when the external load force received is less than the control value of the load-limiting component 2, the external load force can act on the butterfly spring 3 through the stress-bearing pressure cover 102, thereby realizing functions such as buffering and protection of the load force. In normal use, the deformation of the butterfly spring 3 under the action of the external load is not enough to cause the load-limiting block 1021 to be blocked from moving by the track block 2021, so that the stress-bearing pressure cover 102 can move on the installation column 101 under the action of the external load force to realize the compression or release of the butterfly spring 3, which is stable to use. When the external load force applied to the assembly 1 is greater than the control (protection) force of the load-limiting assembly 2, when the stressed pressure cover 102 moves downward under the action of the load, the track block 2021 can block the movement of the stressed pressure cover 102 through the load-limiting block 1021, so that the stressed pressure cover 102 cannot continue to move downward to compress the butterfly spring 3, which can effectively avoid the phenomenon of overload damage to the butterfly spring 3. At the same time, when the control (protection) function of the load-limiting assembly 2 is triggered, the load force can be directly transmitted to the positioning base 103 through the stressed pressure cover 102, the load-limiting block 1021, the track block 2021, and the regulating rod 201, so that the load force will not continue to be applied to the butterfly spring 3, further avoiding the phenomenon of overload damage to the butterfly spring 3, thereby improving the stability and practicality of the device.

[0027] Among them, a locking top spring 2031 is provided on the top of the locking block 203, and the two ends of the locking top spring 2031 are respectively against the bottom of the locking block 203 and the inside of the regulating rod 201, a locking tooth block 2032 is provided on the side of the locking block 203, and a locking tooth groove 1012 is provided inside the mounting column 101. Under the action of the locking top spring 2031, when the locking block 203 is not pressed by an external force, the locking tooth block 2032 is inserted into the inside of the locking tooth groove 1012. In use, the control of the load limiting component 2 ( The control (protection) force can be adjusted by the regulating rod 201, so that the installation component 1 can be assembled and used with butterfly springs 3 of different specifications and models, and the regulating rod 201 has a self-locking structure, that is, when the locking block 203 is not pressed by external force, the locking tooth block 2032 can be inserted into the locking tooth groove 1012 under the action of the locking top spring 2031, so as to lock the regulating rod 201 and make it unable to rotate, thereby avoiding the phenomenon of accidentally changing the control (protection) force of the load limiting component 2 during use.

[0028] Among them, the outside of the rod body of the regulating rod 201 is provided with a thread, and the regulating rod 201 is screwed into the inside of the load limiting seat 202 through the rod body thread. During use, when it is necessary to adjust the control (protection) force of the load limiting component 2, only the locking block 203 needs to be pressed and the regulating rod 201 needs to be rotated. After rotation, the regulating rod 201 can drive the load limiting seat 202 to move up and down inside the mounting column 101 through the rod body thread to change the use position. The change of the use position of the load limiting seat 202 changes the maximum downward movement distance of the force-bearing pressure cover 102 when the load limiting block 1021 is blocked by the track block 2021, that is, the maximum compression amount of the butterfly spring 3, and it has strong adaptability.

[0029] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows:

[0030] In the present invention, the control and protection strength of the load limiting component 2 is adjusted according to the actual use situation. The control (protection) strength of the load limiting component 2 can be adjusted by the regulating rod 201, so that the installation component 1 can be assembled and used with butterfly springs 3 of different specifications and models, and the regulating rod 201 has a self-locking structure, that is, when the locking block 203 is not pressed by an external force, the locking tooth block 2032 can be inserted into the inside of the locking tooth groove 1012 under the action of the locking top spring 2031, so as to lock the regulating rod 201 so that it cannot rotate, thereby avoiding the phenomenon of accidentally changing the control (protection) strength of the load limiting component 2 during use. When it is necessary to adjust the control (protection) force of the load limiting component 2, it is only necessary to press the locking block 203 and rotate the regulating rod 201. After the locking block 203 is pressed, the locking tooth block 2032 will slip out of the locking tooth groove 1012. After the regulating rod 201 is rotated, it can drive the load limiting seat 202 to move up and down inside the mounting column 101 through the rod body thread to change the use position. The change in the use position of the load limiting seat 202 changes the maximum downward movement distance of the force-bearing pressure cover 102 when the load limiting block 1021 is blocked by the track block 2021, that is, the maximum compression amount of the butterfly spring 3. When the mounting component 1 is in normal use, that is, when it receives an external load force When the external load force is less than the control value of the load limiting component 2, the external load force can act on the butterfly spring 3 through the force-bearing cover 102, thereby realizing functions such as buffering and protection of the load force. In normal use, the deformation of the butterfly spring 3 under the external load is not enough to block the movement trajectory of the load limiting block 1021 by the track block 2021, so that the force-bearing cover 102 can move on the installation column 101 under the action of the external load force to achieve compression or release of the butterfly spring 3. When the external load force applied to the installation component 1 is greater than the control (protection) force of the load limiting component 2, the force-bearing cover 102 is under the load When it moves downward under the action of, the track block 2021 can block the movement of the stressed pressure cover 102 through the load limiting block 1021, so that the stressed pressure cover 102 cannot continue to move downward to compress the butterfly spring 3, which can effectively avoid the phenomenon of overload damage to the butterfly spring 3. At the same time, when the control (protection) function of the load limiting component 2 is triggered, the load force can be directly transmitted to the positioning base 103 through the stressed pressure cover 102, the load limiting block 1021, the track block 2021, and the regulating rod 201, so that the load force will not continue to be applied to the butterfly spring 3, further avoiding the phenomenon of overload damage to the butterfly spring 3.

[0031] In another embodiment, the number of butterfly springs 3 used and the installation method (such as upright installation, inverted installation, etc.) can be freely selected according to actual conditions. Due to the adjustable position design of the load limiter seat 202, the load limiter seat 202 is adjusted to a suitable position according to the number of butterfly springs 3 used and the installation method, and the load limiter assembly 2 can stably realize the load limiter protection function.
