Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile assembly, in particular to a novel oil port screw plug. Background Art
[0002] Oil port screw plugs are mainly used to protect products such as steering gears, steering oil pumps, power cylinders, steering followers, etc. during storage, transportation, painting, etc. before assembling oil pipe joints.
[0003] The first existing oil port screw plug is Figure 1-4 As shown, Figure 1 This is the assembly drawing of the oil port screw plug installed on the product. Figure 2 It is a partial cross-sectional schematic diagram. Figure 3 for Figure 1 The schematic diagram at A is enlarged. The material of the oil port screw plug is plastic. There is a rectangular sealing gasket 1 between the thread backing groove of the oil port screw plug and the installation surface of the product. The rectangular sealing gasket is made of rubber and plays a sealing role. The shape of the backing groove 2 is partially concave inward to prevent the rectangular sealing gasket from being squeezed out when tightening the thread. There is knurling 3 on the outside of the head boss of the oil port screw plug, which is convenient for pre-tightening the thread by hand; there is a hexagon socket head 4 on the inside. Figure 4 As shown, it is convenient to install and remove the oil port screw plug with an Allen wrench. The disadvantages are: a. It is necessary to add an additional rectangular sealing gasket to seal, the structure is complex, and the manufacturing cost is high; b. The oil port screw plug can only be installed and removed with an Allen wrench, which is not convenient for after-sales maintenance or replacement of the product; c. The outer side of the head boss of the oil port screw plug is too high and the head protection area is too small, resulting in excessive paint accumulation between it and the installation surface of the product to form a paint accumulation area 5, affecting the subsequent installation of the pipe joint.
[0004] The second existing oil port screw plug is shown in Figure 5-8 As shown, Figure 5 This is the assembly drawing of the oil port screw plug installed on the product. Figure 6 is its cross-sectional schematic diagram, Figure 7 for Figure 6The enlarged schematic diagram at B in the middle shows that the oil port screw plug is made of plastic, and has a sealing lip 6 on its mounting surface 7. The sealing lip protrudes from the mounting surface by 0.1 to 0.2 mm, and is about 0.2 mm wide from top to bottom. Under the tightening torque of the thread, the sealing lip produces a large interference deformation, pressing tightly against the mounting surface of the product to seal. There is a cross groove 8 on the inner side of the head boss of the oil port screw plug, which is convenient for installing or removing the oil port screw plug with a cross wrench. Compared with the existing first type of oil port screw plug, it has no rectangular sealing gasket, simple structure, and low manufacturing cost, but its disadvantages are: a. The oil port plug can only be installed or removed with a cross wrench, which is not convenient for after-sales maintenance or replacement of the product; b. The outer edge of the head boss of the oil port plug is too high and the head protection area is too small, resulting in excessive accumulation of paint between it and the installation surface of the product, affecting the subsequent installation of the pipe joint; c. The head boss of the oil port plug is too small, and its strength and rigidity are relatively small. When the tightening torque of the oil port plug is too large, the outer side of the head boss warps and deforms, affecting the sealing function; the head boss has a cross groove, which is easy to break when the tightening torque is larger or under a large impact force.

[0008] A further technical solution is that the plug body, the external hexagonal connecting portion and the flange are an integrated structure, made of plastic material, and molded in one piece.
[0009] A further technical solution is that the bevel is gradually tilted outward from the left end of the plug body to the right installation end face of the plug body, thereby reducing the height of the outer edge, increasing the head protection area, and reducing the paint accumulation problem.
[0010] A further technical solution is that an annular groove is also provided on the right side end of the screw plug body, and the flange is located in the annular groove and protrudes to the right side, so that the flange can produce a large interference deformation and press tightly on the installation surface of the product to play a sealing role.
