When exposed, the piston rod cannot be well heated in the hydraulic cylinder and needs to be retracted and then heated. There are the disadvantages of low heating comprehensiveness and difficulty in use; and it is not easy to understand the temperature of the hydraulic cylinder, and it is not convenient to control the temperature.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0028] Embodiment 1:
[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment proposes: a hydraulic cylinder system adapted to low temperature environment, comprising:
[0030] A cylinder body 1 having a cylinder cavity (the cylinder body 1 is a hydraulic cylinder body);
[0031] A piston rod 2 is provided in the cylinder body 1 and moves in and out of the cylinder cavity. The piston rod 2 can conduct heat (the piston rod 2 is a part of the cylinder body 1. As shown in the figure, it penetrates into the cylinder body 1 at the top end of the cylinder body 1 and moves up and down);
[0032] The piston rod 2 is provided with a heating rod 11 (the built-in heating rod 11 does not interfere with the use of the piston rod 2), (and as shown in the figure, an electric connection line is provided at the top of the heating rod 11 and passes through the upper end of the piston rod 2 to facilitate connection with an external power supply), and the rod end is arranged along the rod end direction of the piston rod (the rod end of the heating rod 11 is oriented up and down, which is the same as the rod end of the piston rod 2, and the heating rod 11 can be arranged in a larger range inside the piston rod 2);
[0033] The exposed travel position of the piston rod 2 is provided with heating rods 11 for heating (i.e., when the piston rod 2 moves up and down, the same part exposed outside the cylinder body 1 and recovered inside the cylinder body 1 is distributed with the heating part of the heating rod 11, i.e., the length of the heating part of the heating rod 11 is not less than the moving length of the piston rod 2);
[0034] A heating layer 8 (the heating layer 8 can be a heating plate, etc.) is fixedly attached to the outside of the cylinder body 1, and the heat generated by the heating layer 8 is transferred from the cylinder body 1 to the cylinder cavity (as shown in the figure, an electrical connection line is provided on the heating layer 8 to connect to an external power source, and the heating layer 8 is energized to generate heat, and the outer side of the cylinder body 1 is heated to transfer heat to the cylinder cavity; the cylinder body 1 is made of a heat-conducting material, such as stainless steel, aluminum alloy, etc.);
[0035] A temperature measuring component 10 is provided outside the cylinder body 1 for detecting the temperature in the cylinder cavity, so as to directly and quickly know the temperature in the cylinder cavity;
[0036] It also includes a controller (which can be a PLC controller, not shown in the figure) to connect to an external power supply. The controller is electrically connected to the electrical components of the heating rod 11, the heating layer 8 and the temperature measuring component 10 to control the opening and closing of the heat generating components, which is more suitable for use in low temperature environments.
[0037] Embodiment 2:
[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, the difference from Example 1 is that: it also includes that the temperature measuring component 10 is located between the cylinder body 1 and the heating layer 8 (the temperature measuring component 10 is placed in the thermal insulation space to improve the detection accuracy).
[0039] In order to implement the above-mentioned temperature measuring component 10, it is proposed that Figure 1 As shown, the specific structure and composition of the temperature measuring component 10 can be as follows: the temperature measuring component 10 includes a cavity 101 formed between the cylinder body 1 and the heating layer 8 (as shown in the figure, the heating layer 8 is arched outside the cylinder body 1 to form a space);
[0040] A temperature sensor 102 fixed to the cylinder body 1 is provided in the cavity 101, and the sensing end of the temperature sensor 102 is fixed outside the cylinder body 1 and penetrates into the cylinder cavity (as shown in the figure, the temperature sensor 102 is electrically connected to the above-mentioned controller, and the sensing end of the temperature sensor 102 detects the temperature in the cylinder cavity);
[0041] A piston 3 fixed to the periphery of the piston rod 2 is fitted in the cylinder cavity, and the movement of the piston 3 does not pass through the sensing end of the temperature sensor 102 (that is, the piston 3 moves in fit to the inner wall of the cylinder cavity, and the moving part does not touch the sensing end of the temperature sensor 102, which is convenient for setting the sensing end of the temperature sensor 102 and will not affect the sealing of the piston 3 during displacement).
[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, a thermal insulation layer 9 is bonded and fixed (may be fixed by bonding or other methods) on the outside of the heating layer 8 (the thermal insulation layer 9 may be provided with multiple layers and the layers are bonded and integrated; the thermal insulation layer 9 is made of a material with low thermal conductivity, such as polyurethane foam, etc., to improve heat loss and increase thermal insulation).
[0043] The piston 3 divides the cylinder cavity into a first oil cavity 4 and a second oil cavity 5, and the first oil cavity 4 and the second oil cavity 5 are respectively connected to the sensing end of the temperature sensor 102 (as shown in the figure, the piston 3 divides the cylinder cavity into a first oil cavity 4 and a second oil cavity 5 up and down, and a group of temperature measuring components 10 are respectively set for the first oil cavity 4 and the second oil cavity 5 to measure the temperature of the space respectively, so as to improve the detection accuracy).
[0044] The cylinder body 1 is provided with oil ports 6 communicating with the first oil chamber 4 and the second oil chamber 5 on the outside thereof, and an oil pipe 7 is fixedly connected to the outside of the oil port 6 (the oil pipe 7 is connected to an external oil working device, such as an oil tank or the like).
[0045] The oil pipe 7 is wrapped by the heating layer 8 in a non-contact manner, which can also provide thermal insulation and heat preservation effect on the oil pipe 7, making it more suitable for use in low temperature environments.
[0046] Embodiment 3:
[0047] like Figure 1 As shown, the difference between it and Example 2 is that: it also includes that the piston rod 2 is provided with a strip cavity 12 which is only connected to the second oil chamber 5 (as shown in the figure, a strip-shaped empty groove is extended up and down at the bottom of the piston rod 2, and is connected to the second oil chamber 5, that is, the oil in the second oil chamber 5 can flow into the strip cavity 12, and the temperature in the first oil chamber 4, the heating rod 11, and the piston rod 2 can be better conducted to each other, reducing the temperature difference between the first oil chamber 4 and the second oil chamber 5, and facilitating the joint temperature adjustment), which is more suitable for use in low temperature environments.
[0048] The control method of the present invention is automatic control through a controller. The control circuit of the controller can be realized by simple programming by technicians in this field. The provision of power is also common knowledge in this field. The present invention is mainly used to protect mechanical devices, so the present invention will no longer explain the control method and circuit connection in detail.
[0049] The above shows and describes the basic principles and main features of the utility model and the advantages of the utility model. For those skilled in the art, it is obvious that the utility model is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic features of the utility model. Therefore, no matter from which point of view, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive. The scope of the utility model is limited by the attached claims rather than the above description, and it is intended to include all changes within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims. Any figure mark in the claims should not be regarded as limiting the claims involved.
[0050] In addition, it should be understood that although the present specification is described according to implementation modes, not every implementation mode contains only one independent technical solution. This description of the specification is only for the sake of clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment may also be appropriately combined to form other implementation modes that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
