Example 1

[0024] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the utility model provides a connection conversion structure for an actuator damper output shaft, comprising a damper shaft 1, an actuator 2 and an output shaft 3 penetrating and fixed in the actuator 2, the damper shaft 1 is connected to the actuator 2 via the output shaft 3; specifically, it also includes a connection structure 4 that cooperates with the output shaft 3, the connection structure 4 includes a conversion end 5 that cooperates with the output shaft 3 and a fixed end 6 for fixing the damper shaft 1.

[0025] The conversion end 5 includes a connecting shaft 51 whose size matches that of the output shaft 3 , and an expansion unit for fixing the conversion end 5 and the output shaft 3 is disposed on the connecting shaft 51 .

[0026] The expansion unit includes an expander 52 disposed on a connecting shaft 51 ; specifically, the expander 52 and the connecting shaft 51 are connected via a fixing screw 53 .

[0027] The fixed end 6 includes an “L”-shaped fixed plate 61 , and one end of the connecting shaft 51 away from the expander 52 is plugged and fixed on the fixed plate 61 .

[0028] The fixed end 6 also includes a U-shaped bolt 63 which is tightened and fixed to the fixed plate 61 by a nut 62, and both ends of the U-shaped bolt 63 are fixed to the upper surface of the fixed plate 61 by nuts 62; specifically, a first fixing clamp 7 for clamping the damper shaft 1 is fixed inside the U-shaped bolt 63, and the top surface of the first fixing clamp 7 is in contact with the inner wall of the fixed plate 61.

[0029] The first fixing clamp 7 has two ends provided with clamping grooves 71 for cooperating with the U-shaped bolts 63 for fixing.

[0030] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: the conversion end 5 of the connection structure 4 is inserted into the output shaft 3 of the actuator 2. Since the cavity inside the output shaft 3 connected to the conversion end 5 is connected at both ends, a fixing screw 53 is inserted from the end of the output shaft 3 away from the conversion end 5 to tighten the screw. The expander 52 uses its own material properties to achieve an expansion effect under the action of external force. Therefore, the expander 52 expands radially, that is, the diameter of the expander 52 increases, until the outer edge of the expander 52 contacts and is stuck with the inner wall of the output shaft 3, so that the conversion end 5 and the output shaft 3 are fixed by clamping.

[0031] One end of the damper shaft 1 is connected to the connecting shaft 51 through a U-shaped bolt 63, and the nuts 62 at both ends of the U-shaped bolt 63 are tightened so that the U-shaped bolt 63 and the first fixing clamp 7 work together to clamp the damper shaft 1, so that damper shafts 1 of different sizes and models can be connected to the output shaft 3 through the connecting structure 4.

[0032] The advantage of the utility model is that by designing the connection structure 4, the damper shaft 1 is connected to the output shaft 3 of the actuator 2 through the connection structure 4, avoiding the situation where the damper shaft 1 cannot be used due to the mismatch between the size and model of the output shaft 3 and the damper shaft 1, and reducing the limitation of product use. Example 2

[0033] like Figure 4As shown, different from the embodiment 1, in this embodiment, the first fixing clip 7 is further provided with a second fixing clip 8 plugged with the first fixing clip 7, and the second fixing clip 8 is detachably arranged at the bottom of the first fixing clip 7; the second fixing clip 8 is plugged under the first fixing clip 7, which is suitable for connecting the damper shaft 1 with a smaller cross-sectional area. The other structures are the same as those of the embodiment 1.

[0034] In the description of this specification, reference is made to the terms "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "examples", "specific examples", etc.
