Although the former wheel can play a shock-absorbing role when the vehicle body is running, when the equipment on the vehicle body needs to move, the movement of the equipment or the change of the center of gravity will cause the vehicle body to fluctuate, making it impossible to operate the equipment with high precision, and it may also fall due to the movement of the equipment, causing safety hazards. The latter wheel is directly connected to the vehicle body. If the road surface is uneven when the vehicle body is running, it will produce large vibrations and even damage the equipment.

[0015] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0016] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a wheel variable stiffness suspension device includes a bogie 11, a solenoid valve 12, and a cylinder 15.

[0017] The oil cylinder 15 includes an oil cylinder cavity, a piston 151 and a compression spring 152. The oil cylinder 15 cavity is arranged inside the bogie 11 and is sealed by an oil seal cover 14. The piston 151 divides the oil cylinder cavity into an upper oil chamber and a lower oil chamber. The compression spring 152 is placed in the upper oil chamber of the oil cylinder, one end of which is limited by the top of the upper oil chamber of the oil cylinder, and the other end is limited by the piston 151.

[0018] The piston 151 is provided with a lower piston rod 154 extending out of the oil seal cover 14 .

[0019] The piston 151 is provided with an upper piston rod 153 , and the compression spring 152 is sleeved on the upper piston rod 153 to limit the compression spring 152 in radial direction.

[0020] The solenoid valve includes a main body, a solenoid valve stem 12, and a solenoid valve cavity. The solenoid valve cavity is arranged inside the bogie 11, and the solenoid valve cavity is divided into an upper cavity and a lower cavity. The upper cavity is communicated with the upper oil cavity of the oil cylinder through an upper through hole 114, and the lower cavity is communicated with the lower oil cavity of the oil cylinder through a lower channel 113. A sealing ring 112 is arranged between the upper cavity and the lower cavity, and a through hole is arranged in the center of the sealing ring to connect the upper cavity and the lower cavity. When the head of the solenoid valve stem is placed in the through hole of the sealing ring, the upper cavity of the solenoid valve cavity is disconnected from the lower cavity; when the head of the solenoid valve stem leaves the through hole, the upper cavity of the solenoid valve cavity is communicated with the lower cavity.

[0021] The solenoid valve cavity is supplied with oil through the oil inlet 13 .

[0022] The solenoid valve stem is controlled to move up and down by whether the main body is energized, so that it closes the through hole or leaves the through hole, which may have the following two situations:

[0023] When the solenoid valve body is not energized, the solenoid valve stem leaves the through hole and the solenoid valve is normally open. That is, when the solenoid valve body is not energized, the upper and lower oil chambers of the oil cylinder 15 are connected to form a circuit, and the piston rod can move elastically under the influence of oil pressure and compression spring, that is, the bogie 11 can move up and down; when the solenoid valve 12 is energized, the upper and lower oil chambers of the oil cylinder 15 form independent oil chambers, and the piston rod cannot move, that is, the bogie 11 is locked and cannot move up and down.

[0024] Alternatively, when the solenoid valve body is not powered, the solenoid valve stem is placed in the through hole to make the solenoid valve normally closed. That is, when the solenoid valve body is powered, the upper and lower oil chambers of the oil cylinder 15 form a circuit, and the piston rod can move elastically under the influence of oil pressure and compression spring, that is, the bogie 11 can move up and down; when the solenoid valve 12 is closed after being powered off, the upper and lower oil chambers of the oil cylinder 15 form independent oil chambers, and the piston rod cannot move, that is, the bogie 11 is locked and cannot move up and down.

[0025] In this embodiment, the lower end of the lower piston rod is connected to the wheel bracket 16 , the two wheel brackets 16 are arranged opposite to each other, and the wheel 17 is rotatably supported by the two wheel brackets 16 .

[0026] The wheel 17 can also be directly rotatably supported by the lower end of the piston rod.
