[0034] Embodiment 2
[0035] like Figure 4 As shown, a hydraulic cylinder with a secondary cylinder includes a cylinder 1, a guide sleeve 55 connected to one end of the cylinder 1, a piston rod 11 inserted in the guide sleeve 55, a piston 53 disposed in the cylinder 1 and connected to the end of the piston rod 11 located in the cylinder 1, a connecting shaft 52 disposed at the end of the piston rod 11 located in the cylinder 1, a limiting sleeve 54 sleeved on the piston rod 11, and a cylinder bottom 4 disposed at one end of the hydraulic cylinder away from the guide sleeve 55. It is characterized in that the hydraulic cylinder also includes a connecting mechanism 3 and a secondary cylinder 2 that are connected to each other, and the connecting mechanism 3 is connected to the cylinder 1, and the secondary cylinder 2 is connected to the cylinder bottom 4. The technical features that distinguish it from the first embodiment are: the connecting mechanism 3 is detachably connected to the secondary cylinder 2, and the secondary cylinder 2 is detachably connected to the cylinder bottom 4. As shown in FIG. Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, in the second embodiment, the outer surfaces of the second boss 33 and the third boss 42 that cooperate with the cylinder barrel 2 are processed with threads, and the inner surfaces of both ends of the cylinder barrel 2 are processed with threads.

In a certain use scenario, the overall axial dimensions of the cylinder barrel 1, the connecting mechanism 3 and the auxiliary cylinder 2 of the hydraulic cylinder remain unchanged. By changing the position of the connecting mechanism 3 on the hydraulic cylinder as a whole, the axial length of the cylinder body 1 can be changed, thereby limiting the stroke within a certain range. Furthermore, by changing the axial dimension of the small end of the limiting sleeve 54, the stroke of the hydraulic cylinder is further limited. The detachable assembly of the auxiliary cylinder 2 can also change the maximum allowable length of the hydraulic cylinder. In a certain use scenario, the axial dimension of the cylinder barrel 1 of the hydraulic cylinder remains unchanged, and the axial dimension of the connecting mechanism main body 31 remains unchanged. By changing the axial dimension of the auxiliary cylinder 2, the maximum allowable length of the hydraulic cylinder as a whole can be changed, and further changing the axial dimension of the small end of the limiting sleeve 54 can further limit the stroke of the hydraulic cylinder, thereby realizing the flexibility and practicality of the hydraulic cylinder.
[0037] Embodiment 3

The oil enters the space between the connecting mechanism 3 and the piston 53 in the cylinder barrel 1, and the space between the limit sleeve 54 and the guide sleeve 51 in the cylinder barrel 1 (the oil inlet is respectively provided on the connecting mechanism 2 and the cylinder barrel 1, which are not marked in the figure, and this embodiment only describes the movement state of the hydraulic cylinder). When the oil between the connecting mechanism 3 and the piston 53 increases, the oil pushes the connecting shaft 52 and the piston 53, and the connecting shaft 52 drives the piston shaft 51 and the hinge end connected to the piston shaft 51 to realize the stroke pushed by the hydraulic cylinder. When the small end of the limit sleeve 54 abuts against the guide sleeve 55, the hydraulic cylinder reaches the maximum size of the allowable stroke. When the oil between the limit sleeve 54 and the guide sleeve 55 increases, the limit sleeve 54 pushes the connecting shaft 52, and the connecting shaft 52 drives the piston shaft 51 and the hinged end connected to the piston shaft 51 to realize the retraction stroke of the hydraulic cylinder. When the piston 53 abuts against the first boss 32 of the connecting mechanism 3, the hydraulic cylinder reaches the minimum allowable stroke size.
[0039] In summary, the utility model overcomes various shortcomings in the prior art and produces beneficial effects: (1) The auxiliary cylinder in the utility model can effectively limit the stroke range of the hydraulic cylinder and replace the excessive axial dimension of the hydraulic cylinder barrel; (2) At the same time, the production and manufacturing of the auxiliary cylinder is relatively simple, which reduces the cost of the hydraulic cylinder barrel in the manufacturing process; (3) Compared with the technical solution of limiting by a limiting sleeve in the prior art, the utility model can make the hydraulic cylinder more stable and safe when working. The above embodiments are only illustrative of the principle and effect of the utility model, and are not used to limit the utility model.
