[0022] As attached Figure 3 As shown, in the above embodiment, specifically, the automatic lubricating oil adder 7 includes a support frame 71, a sealing sleeve ring 72 is fixed to the upper right side of the support frame 71, an oil path groove 73 is opened on the inner side of the sealing sleeve ring 72, and an oil-seeping cotton pad 74 is clamped on the inner side of the sealing sleeve ring 72.

[0023] In the above embodiment, specifically, the lower portion of the rubber oil pipe 6 is fixed to the upper left side of the sealing sleeve ring 72 , and the inner side of the rubber oil pipe 6 is communicated with the inner side of the oil passage groove 73 .

[0024] In the above embodiment, specifically, the oil-seeping cotton pad 74 is sleeved on the outer side of the shock absorber fixing rod 2 , and the inner side of the oil-seeping cotton pad 74 is in contact with the outer side of the shock absorber fixing rod 2 .

[0025] In the above embodiment, specifically, the oil-seeping cotton pad 74 is clamped on the inner side of the oil passage groove 73 .

[0026] How it works

[0027] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: the staff first opens the sealing cover 54, adds enough lubricating oil to the inner side of the oil storage tank 51, and then seals the oil storage tank 51 through the sealing cover 54.
