Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of oil cylinders, in particular to a piston-free oil cylinder. Background Art
[0002] Traditional oil cylinders are mainly composed of cylinder barrels and cylinder heads, pistons and piston rods, sealing devices, buffer devices and exhaust devices. The pressure difference on both sides of the piston is used to achieve linear motion, so there must be a sealed piston in the middle. There must be an oil supply system on both sides of the piston, with oil entering one side and oil exiting the other side, and this repeated cycle achieves reciprocating motion. Since the middle piston is sealed with the cylinder body and rubs back and forth during movement, the precision requirements for the inner cavity of the cylinder body are very high, and it needs to be heat-resistant and friction-resistant.
[0003] In view of the above shortcomings of traditional hydraulic cylinders, the design of piston-free cylinders was proposed. This new type of cylinder eliminates the friction between the sealing piston and the cylinder body by eliminating the piston design, reducing the precision requirements for the inner cavity of the cylinder body, and also reducing energy consumption and manufacturing costs.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, a pistonless oil cylinder comprises a cylinder body 1 and a piston rod assembly 2 arranged in the cylinder body 1;
[0022] The cylinder body 1 is a cylindrical structure with openings at both ends. A front cover 3 and a rear cover 4 are respectively provided at both ends of the cylinder body 1. An annular raised wall 5 is provided on the rear cover 4. After the annular raised wall 5 is inserted into the cylinder body 1, the rear cover 4 is connected to the cylinder body 1 by bolts. A first oil port 6 is provided in the center of the rear cover 4 to communicate with the inner cavity, and a second oil port 7 is provided on the right part of the cylinder body 1 to communicate with the rod cavity.
[0023] The piston rod assembly 2 is composed of a cylinder 201 with an opening at one end and a piston rod 202; the open end of the cylinder 201 is inserted between the annular raised wall 5 and the cylinder body 1, and the other end of the piston rod 202 passes through the guide sleeve and the front end cover 3 to expose the outside of the cylinder body 1, and the guide sleeve is connected to the cylinder body and the front end cover.
[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, multiple groups of fixing grooves 2011 are provided on the inner wall and outer wall of the opening of the cylinder 201 and the outer wall of the bottom of the cylinder. The fixing grooves 2011 are provided with O-rings 8, step seals 9, support rings 10, and O-rings 8 from left to right.
[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, a plurality of groups of raised wall grooves 501 are provided on the outer side of the opening of the annular raised wall 5, and the raised wall grooves 501 are provided with O-rings 8, step seals 9, support rings 10, and O-rings 8 in sequence from left to right. The plurality of sealing components are provided to improve the sealing between the annular raised wall and the cylinder body, and the support ring is used to support the cylinder body and ensure that it does not deviate or swing.
[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, a rubber layer 11 is disposed around the bottom of the cylinder 201, and the rubber layer is used to offset the hard contact between the cylinder and the guide sleeve, thereby avoiding damage to the cylinder and the guide sleeve and extending the service life.
[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, when the rubber layer at the bottom of the cylinder 201 conflicts with the guide sleeve, the O-ring 8 on the rightmost side of the inner wall at the opening of the cylinder 201 does not conflict with the O-ring 8 on the leftmost side of the groove of the raised wall, ensuring that the sealing structure between the cylinder and the annular raised wall does not conflict when the piston rod assembly is extended or retracted, thereby protecting the sealing structure and extending the service life of the sealing structure.
[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, when the bottom of the inner cavity of the cylinder 201 conflicts with the annular raised wall 5, the opening of the cylinder does not conflict with the rear end cover and a gap is left. An oil leakage observation hole 12 is opened on the cylinder body at the gap. After the front end cover and the rear end cover are connected, the entire cylinder body is in a sealed state. When oil leakage occurs in the oil leakage observation hole, it can be known that there is a problem with the sealing between the cylinder and the annular raised wall, which is convenient for operators to identify abnormal conditions of the equipment.
[0029] The working principle of the utility model is explained as follows: when in use, oil enters the first oil port and the piston rod extends; oil enters the second oil port and the piston rod retracts; the cylinder body is used as the piston, and there is no piston in the entire oil cylinder, thus avoiding the need for maintenance of the piston, which is convenient and practical; at the same time, an oil leakage observation hole is provided, and by observing this area, the overall sealing of the oil cylinder can be judged, which is very practical.
[0030] The above-described embodiments are merely descriptions of preferred implementations of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the concept and scope of the present invention. Without departing from the design concept of the present invention, various modifications and improvements made by ordinary personnel in the field to the technical solution of the present invention should fall within the protection scope of the present invention, and the technical contents of the present invention for protection have been fully recorded in the claims.
