Compared with conventional suspensions, air suspensions can extend the service life of vehicles, improve the comfort of the entire vehicle, reduce the dynamic load on the wheels, and greatly reduce the degree of damage caused by vehicles to the road surface, thereby reducing the maintenance costs of highway roads. They can also adjust the height of special and specialized vehicles such as airport shuttles and city buses as needed.
[0003] However, due to the poor road conditions in China and the common phenomenon of commercial vehicle overloading, the air spring's buffer limit structure will be involved when driving on roads with poor road conditions or when the vehicle height needs to be adjusted to the minimum state. The air springs that use the foreign all-rubber buffer block structure have shown signs of acclimatization. The buffer block has been severely deformed due to long-term operation, which eventually leads to damage to the air spring bag skin, premature failure, and a short service life. Utility Model Content

[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0028] Example: As attached Figures 1 to 3 The vulcanized sealing plate for a membrane air spring shown in the figure comprises a buffer block 21 and a sealing plate body 22, wherein the buffer block 21 is vulcanized on one side of the sealing plate body 22, and a connecting piece 23 for connecting with a piston base 4 is provided on the sealing plate body 22 corresponding to the other side of the buffer block 21. Due to the use of the vulcanized sealing plate 2 structure, even if the buffer block 21 is deformed, the sealing plate body 22 is used as a support to ensure that there is a sufficient safety gap between the coil assembly 1 and the piston base 4, and the coil assembly 1 will not be in contact with the airbag 3 and will not be worn, thereby ensuring the reliability and service life of the air spring.
[0029] As attached Figure 1As shown, the buffer block 21 and the sealing plate body 22 are coaxially arranged in a truncated cone shape, and the outer circumference of the buffer block 21 is smoothly connected with the outer circumference of the sealing plate body 22. This design can improve its bending strength, thereby increasing its service life.
[0030] As attached Figure 1 As shown, the upper edge of the sealing plate body 22 is provided with an arc transition portion 221, and the bottom edge of the buffer block 21 is covered on the surface of the arc transition portion 221. This design can increase the contact area of the edge connection between the two, thereby increasing the connection strength between the two and improving the stability of the structure.
[0031] As attached Figure 1 As shown, the upper surface of the buffer block 21 is in an arc shape with a high middle and a gradually lower periphery. This design can improve the flexibility of the buffer block 21 when in contact with the plate rolling assembly 1.
[0032] As attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, the outer edge of the bottom end of the sealing plate body 22 is provided with an annular support flange 222 extending toward the periphery for abutting against the piston base 4, and the annular support flange 222 is parallel to the horizontal plane. The contact area between the sealing plate body 22 and the piston base 4 is increased, and the contact surface is flat and closely fits the upper surface of the piston base 4, which is conducive to improving the stability of the sealing plate and the piston base 4, and can also prevent the piston base 4 from being subjected to large local stress, thereby protecting the parts.
[0033] As attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, the outer edge of the annular support flange 222 is also provided with a clamping flange 223 for clamping the bottom end of the airbag 3 onto the piston base 4, and the cross section of the clamping flange 223 is in an "inverted L" shape.

The connecting rod section 231 and the screw section 232 are an integrated structure. The upper end of the connecting rod section 231 is connected to the sealing plate body 22. The diameter of the screw section 232 is smaller than the diameter of the connecting rod section 231, so that a supporting step 233 for supporting the upper end of the piston base 4 is formed between the two. The nut 5 can be threadedly connected to the screw section 232, and the piston base 4 is sleeved on the outside of the connecting rod section 231. By tightening the connecting nut 5, the piston base 4 is pressed against the supporting step 233 to achieve the connection between the connecting member 23 and the piston base 4.
