[0019] In a typical implementation of the present invention, Figure 1-Figure 2As shown, a connection structure between a semi-trailer suspension leaf spring and an axle tube 6 is provided.

[0020] The invention comprises: a first fixing plate 1, a second fixing plate 2 and a U-shaped bolt 3, wherein the first fixing plate 1 is located in the middle of the longest steel plate of the leaf spring 5, the length of the first fixing plate 1 is greater than the steel plate width of the leaf spring 5, the second fixing plate 2 is located on the side of the leaf spring 5 away from the first fixing plate 1, the first fixing plate 1 and the second fixing plate 2 clamp the leaf spring 5 in the middle, the four corners of the first fixing plate 1 and the second fixing plate 2 are provided with mounting holes, and the mounting holes are located on both sides of the leaf spring 5, there are two U-shaped bolts 3, the two U-shaped bolts 3 pass through the mounting holes on the first fixing plate 1 and the second fixing plate 2 respectively, and one arc-shaped end of the U-shaped bolt 3 is located on the side of the shortest steel plate of the leaf spring 5, the U-shaped bolt 3 fixes the shaft tube 6 on the second fixing plate 2, and a shock-absorbing pad 4 is also provided between the second fixing plate 2 and the shaft tube 6, the shock-absorbing pad 4 is made of rubber, which is cheap and durable, and the U-shaped bolt 3 located on one side of the first fixing plate 1 is tightened and fixed by a locking nut 7. In this way, the shaft tube 6 can be fixed by the U-bolt 3 and the second fixing plate 2, and shock-absorbing by the shock-absorbing pad 4, so that effective buffering can be performed between the leaf spring 5, the second fixing plate 2 and the shaft tube 6, preventing the force on the leaf spring 5 from being directly transmitted to the shaft tube 6 through the rigid connection, thereby damaging the shaft tube 6 and ensuring the service life of the shaft tube 6.

[0021] like Figure 2 As shown, one side of the shock-absorbing pad 4 is fixedly connected to the second fixed plate 2, and the side of the shock-absorbing pad 4 away from the second fixed plate 2 is an arc-shaped surface, the size of the arc is the same as the arc size of the shaft tube 6, and an anti-slip layer 8 is provided on the arc-shaped surface, which can facilitate the installation of the shock-absorbing pad 4.

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, the first fixing plate 1 and the second fixing plate 2 have the same shape and size, both are rectangular plates, and the first fixing plate 1 and the second fixing plate 2 are parallel to each other.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, the length of the shock-absorbing pad 4 is equal to the distance between the two U-shaped bolts 3, and the width of the shock-absorbing pad 4 is equal to the diameter of the shaft tube 6, so that the shock-absorbing pad 4 can be fixed by the two U-shaped bolts 3 to prevent the shock-absorbing pad 4 from falling off from between the second fixing plate 2 and the shaft tube 6.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, the first fixing plate 1 and the second fixing plate 2 are axially symmetrical with respect to the center line of the leaf spring 5 .

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, the U-shaped bolt 3 is perpendicular to the first fixing plate 1 and the second fixing plate 2 , and the U-shaped bolt 3 is located on both sides of the leaf spring 5 .

[0027] In the technical solution of the present application, the middle position of the leaf spring 5 is fixed by the first fixing plate 1 and the second fixing plate 2 to locate the center position of the leaf spring 5, and then the shaft tube 6 is fixed between the U-bolt 3 and the second fixing plate 2 by the U-bolt 3. In this way, the shaft tube 6 can be fixed in the middle position of the leaf spring 5 by the two fixing plates and the U-bolt 3. Finally, the shock-absorbing pad 4 between the second fixing plate 2 and the shaft tube 6 is used for buffering. In this way, the shaft tube 6 and the leaf spring 5 can be fixedly connected while being buffered by the shock-absorbing pad 4.

[0028] After the shock-absorbing pad 4 has been used for a long time and has aged, the locking nut 7 can be unscrewed to move the U-bolt 3 away from the leaf spring 5, thereby increasing the distance between the second fixing plate 2 and the shaft tube 6. At this time, the shock-absorbing pad 4 can be removed and a new shock-absorbing pad 4 can be inserted, and finally the locking nut 7 can be tightened. The overall structure is simple, and it is very simple to replace the shock-absorbing pad 4, thereby improving the efficiency of maintenance.

[0029] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and is not intended to limit the utility model. For those skilled in the art, the utility model can have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
