[0048] It should be noted that in an embodiment of the utility model, a pair of locks 32 are movably connected to the opposite ends of the frame 31 in the first direction, and each lock 32 can move relative to the corresponding end of the frame 31 to drive the piston rod 342 to reciprocate along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341, thereby enabling the buffer cylinder 34 to achieve a two-way buffering function.
[0049] For details, please combine Figures 1 to 4 as well as Figure 7 In the embodiment of the utility model, each lock buckle 32 is provided with a first guide slide column 324 and a second guide slide column 325 spaced apart along the first direction on at least one side in the third direction, and the frame 31 is provided with a guide slide groove on at least one side in the third direction corresponding to each lock buckle 32.

The first guide slot 311 and the second guide slot 312 are both connected to the receiving groove 310 and are respectively located at opposite ends of the receiving groove 310 in the first direction. The first guide slide post 324 and the second guide slide post 325 of each lock buckle 32 are slidably installed in the corresponding guide slide slot, so that each lock buckle 32 is installed on the frame 31 through its own guide slide post cooperating with the corresponding guide slide slot on the frame 31, and the guide slide post of each lock buckle 32 can slide in the corresponding guide slide slot. Preferably, in Figures 1 to 4 In the example, each lock buckle 32 is provided with a first guide slide column 324 and a second guide slide column 325 on each side in the third direction, and a corresponding guide slide groove is provided on each side in the third direction of the portion of the frame 31 corresponding to each lock buckle 32, so that each lock buckle 32 can cooperate with the corresponding guide slide groove on the frame 31 through its own guide slide column on both sides of the third direction, which is conducive to improving the reliability of the lock buckle 32 installed on the frame 31 and the stability of the guide slide column of the lock buckle 32 when sliding in the corresponding guide slide groove. The third direction is the thickness direction of the frame 31, and the third direction is perpendicular to the first direction and the second direction mentioned above.
[0050] Please refer again Figures 1 to 4In the embodiment of the utility model, the first guide groove 311 includes a strip groove 3111 and an arc groove 3112 smoothly connected to one end of the strip groove 3111 away from the buffer cylinder 34, wherein the strip groove 3111 extends along the first direction, the arc groove 3112 is located on the side of the strip groove 3111 close to the second elastic member 33 and extends in a direction away from the second elastic member 33, and the curvature center of the arc groove 3112 is located on the side of the arc groove 3112 close to the second elastic member 33. The structure of the second guide groove 312 is the same as that of the first guide groove 311, and is symmetrical with the first guide groove 311 about the central axis of the receiving groove 310 along the second direction, and will not be described in detail here. It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the first guide slide post 324 of each lock buckle 32 is located on the side of the second guide slide post 325 of the lock buckle 32 away from the buffer cylinder 34, and when the first guide slide post 324 of each lock buckle 32 is located in the arc groove 3112 of the corresponding guide slide groove, the second elastic member 33 connected to a pair of lock buckles 32 at opposite ends is in a stretched state; in addition, when the first guide slide post 324 of any lock buckle 32 is located in the arc groove 3112 of the corresponding guide slide groove, and the lock buckle 32 is triggered by the corresponding trigger block to rotate relative to the end of the buffer cylinder 34, the first guide slide post 324 of the lock buckle 32 can slide from the arc groove 3112 of the corresponding guide slide groove into the strip groove 3111 of the guide slide groove, and then slide along the first direction in the strip groove 3111 together with the second guide slide post 325 of the lock buckle 32.
[0051] Please combine Figures 3 to 6 , Figure 8 as well as Fig. 9 In the embodiment of the present utility model, the buffer cylinder 34 at least includes a cylinder body 341 , a piston rod 342 , a one-way valve 343 , an oil seal 344 and a first elastic member 345 .
[0052] Among them, Figure 3 As shown, the first end of the piston rod 342 ( Figure 3 The right end of the piston rod 342 as shown in FIG. 1 extends into the cylinder body 341 and is installed in the cylinder body 341, and the piston rod 342 can reciprocate along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341 (i.e., the aforementioned first direction). Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, the one-way valve 343 is installed at the end of the first end of the piston rod 342 or at the rod body portion of the piston rod 342 adjacent to the first end, so as to be disposed in the cylinder body 341. Figure 5 and Fig. 9 As shown, the oil seal 344 is sealed between the outer wall of the rod portion of the piston rod 342 extending into the cylinder body 341 and the inner wall of the cylinder body 341, wherein the oil seal 344 is closer to the second end of the piston rod 342 than the one-way valve 343 ( Figure 5The left end of the piston rod 342, i.e., the end of the piston rod 342 located outside the cylinder body 341, can reciprocate along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341. Figure 5 and Fig. 9 As shown, the first elastic member 345 is disposed between the oil seal 344 and the cylinder body 341 and is located on the side of the oil seal 344 away from the one-way valve 343. The first elastic member 345 is used to provide a thrust to the oil seal 344 pointing to the one-way valve 343. Figure 3 As shown, the portion of the cylinder body 341 located on the side of the oil seal 344 away from the first elastic member 345 together with the oil seal 344 forms an oil storage chamber 340, and the one-way valve 343 divides the oil storage chamber 340 into a first cavity and a second cavity. The first cavity is located between the oil seal 344 and the one-way valve 343, and the second cavity is located between the one-way valve 343 and the end of the cylinder body 341 away from the oil seal 344.
[0053] Please refer again Figure 5 and Figure 8 In the embodiment of the present utility model, the one-way valve 343 at least includes a valve core 3431 and a valve plate 3432. The valve core 3431 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the first end of the piston rod 342, and a gap is left between the valve core 3431 and the inner wall of the cylinder body 341. The valve core 3431 is provided with a through hole 34311, and the through hole 34311 passes through the valve core 3431 on opposite sides of the cylinder body 341 in the axial direction. Further, the one-way valve 343 and / or the piston rod 342 are provided with a stop structure (for example Figure 8 The valve plate 3432 is provided between the valve core 3431 and the stop structure, and the valve plate 3432 is used to reciprocate between the valve core 3431 and the stop structure along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341 under the action of the fluid thrust to open or block the through hole 34311.
[0054] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present utility model, when the piston rod 342 moves toward the cylinder body 341 along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341, the piston rod 342 will drive the one-way valve 343 to move in the direction from the second end of the piston rod 342 to the first end, so that the oil in the oil storage chamber 340 is forced to flow in the direction from the first end of the piston rod 342 to the second end. Under the fluid thrust of the oil, the valve plate 3432 moves in the direction close to the valve core 3431 until it fits the valve core 3431, thereby blocking the through hole 34311 on the valve core 3431, so that the first cavity and the second cavity of the oil storage chamber 340 are connected only through the gap between the outer wall of the valve core 3431 and the inner wall of the cylinder body 341, and the oil can only flow slowly from the second cavity to the first cavity through the gap, which will generate greater damping; on the contrary, when the piston When the rod 342 moves toward the outside of the cylinder body 341 along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341, the piston rod 342 will drive the one-way valve 343 to move in the direction from the first end of the piston rod 342 to the second end, so that the oil in the oil storage chamber 340 is forced to flow in the direction from the second end of the piston rod 342 to the first end. Under the fluid thrust of the oil, the valve plate 3432 will move in the direction away from the valve core 3431 until it fits the aforementioned stop structure, and then open the through hole 34311 on the valve core 3431, so that the first cavity and the second cavity of the oil storage chamber 340 are connected through the through hole 34311 on the valve core 3431 and the gap between the outer wall of the valve core 3431 and the inner wall of the cylinder body 341, and the oil can simultaneously flow quickly from the second cavity to the first cavity through the through hole 34311 and the gap, and the damping generated at this time is relatively small. In other words, in the embodiment of the present invention, when the piston rod 342 reciprocates along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341, the one-way valve 343 will generate greater damping when the piston rod 342 moves along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341 toward the cylinder body 341, thereby playing a buffering role.
[0055] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present utility model, the oil is stored in the oil storage chamber 340 defined by the oil seal 344 and the cylinder body 341. When the piston rod 342 moves along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341, the volume occupied by the piston rod 342 in the oil storage chamber 340 will change, so that the volume of the oil storage chamber 340 used to store the oil will also change, thereby causing the oil pressure in the oil storage chamber 340 to change and there is a force difference between the oil pressure and the thrust of the first elastic member 345. The oil seal 344 will move along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341 under the action of the force difference and the moving direction of the oil seal 344 is opposite to the moving direction of the piston rod 342. Therefore, the volume of the oil storage chamber 340 can be appropriately adjusted according to the change in the volume occupied by the piston rod 342 in the oil storage chamber 340, thereby ensuring that the oil storage chamber 340 has sufficient volume to store the oil. When the oil seal 344 moves along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341, it will generate a force on the first elastic member 345, and the force will cause the first elastic member 345 to perform adaptive elastic deformation along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341. Specifically, when the piston rod 342 drives the one-way valve 343 to move toward the inside of the cylinder body 341 along the direction from the second end of the piston rod 342 to the first end, the oil seal 344 moves along the direction from the first end of the piston rod 342 to the second end and squeezes the first elastic member 345, and the first elastic member 345 is compressed; when the piston rod 342 drives the one-way valve 343 to move toward the outside of the cylinder body 341 along the direction from the first end of the piston rod 342 to the second end, the oil seal 344 moves along the direction from the second end of the piston rod 342 to the first end and releases the first elastic member 345, and the first elastic member 345 is stretched.
[0056] To sum up, in the buffer cylinder 34 provided in the embodiment of the utility model, whether it is the second end of the piston rod 342 (that is, the end of the piston rod 342 located outside the cylinder body 341, that is, one end of the buffer cylinder 34), or the end of the cylinder body 341 away from the piston rod 342 (that is, the other end of the buffer cylinder 34), when subjected to a force along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341 and directed into the cylinder body 341, the piston rod 342 will move toward the cylinder body 341 along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341, and then the valve plate 3432 will move in the direction close to the valve core 3431 under the fluid thrust of the oil until it fits the valve core 3431, so as to block the through hole 34311 on the valve core 3431, so that the oil in the oil storage chamber 340 only flows slowly from the second chamber to the first chamber through the gap between the valve core 3431 and the cylinder body 341, and the one-way valve 343 can generate greater damping, thereby playing a buffering role. That is to say, when either end of the buffer cylinder 34 is subjected to a force along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341 and directed into the cylinder body 341, the one-way valve 343 can generate a large damping to play a buffering role, so that the buffer cylinder 34 has a two-way buffering function. It can be understood that, for the two-way buffer 3 using the buffer cylinder 34 as a damping device, when the first trigger block 1 cooperates with the first lock 321 of the two-way buffer 3 or the second trigger block 2 cooperates with the second lock 322 of the two-way buffer 3, the buffer cylinder 34 can be subjected to a force along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341 and directed into the cylinder body 341, so that the one-way valve 343 generates a large damping to play a buffering role, so that the two-way buffer 3 and the two-way buffer device 100 including the two-way buffer 3 also have a two-way buffering function. When the two-way buffer device 100 is installed on the sliding door of a storage cabinet such as a wardrobe, not only can the two-way buffering of the sliding door be achieved, but the overall structure is simple, the cost is low, and it is easy to install.
[0057] The following will be combined Figures 1 to 10 , the specific structure of the bidirectional buffer device 100 provided in one embodiment of the present utility model is further described in detail.
[0058] Please refer again Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment of the present invention, the frame 31 is substantially in the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped, and one of the side walls in the second direction is provided with the aforementioned receiving groove 310. Figure 2As shown, the receiving groove 310 can be composed of multiple groove sections along the first direction, and the multiple groove sections include two first groove sections for accommodating a pair of lock buckles 32, a second groove section for accommodating the main part of the buffer cylinder 34 (i.e., the cylinder body 341), and two third groove sections, one of which is used to accommodate part of the piston rod 342, and the other third groove section is used to accommodate part of the connecting rod 347 (described later). Optionally, the dimensions of the multiple groove sections of the receiving groove 310 along the third direction can be the same or different; the dimension of the first groove section for accommodating the lock buckle 32 along the first direction is greater than or equal to the sum of the dimension of the lock buckle 32 along the first direction and the sliding stroke of the lock buckle 32 in the corresponding guide groove along the first direction. The structure of the receiving groove 310 can be reasonably designed according to actual needs, and there is no limitation on this.
[0059] Further, in Figures 1 to 3 In the example, the frame 31 is also provided with a connection structure for fixing the bidirectional buffer 3 on the aforementioned moving part. The connection structure may be, but is not limited to, a combination of one or more of the existing connection structures such as threaded holes and slots, which will not be described in detail. Figures 1 to 3 In the example, the frame 31 adopts an integrated structure. Compared with the existing two-way buffer device which adopts a frame assembled from multiple plates, the frame 31 in this embodiment does not need to be assembled, is simple and reliable, and is easy to install on the aforementioned moving parts. Among them, the frame 31 is not limited to being integrally formed by injection molding, and this will not be repeated.
[0060] Of course, in other embodiments, the frame 31 may also be provided with other structures, such as but not limited to reinforcing ribs for enhancing structural strength, hollow grooves for reducing weight, etc., and this is not limited thereto.
[0061] Please refer again Figures 3 to 7 In one embodiment of the present invention, the first lock buckle 321 includes a lock buckle body 323 that is approximately crescent-shaped, and the lock buckle body 323 is provided with a first guide slide 324 and a second guide slide 325 on opposite sides in the thickness direction (i.e., the aforementioned third direction), and the first guide slide 324 and the second guide slide 325 are respectively located at opposite ends of the lock buckle body 323 in the length direction (i.e., the aforementioned second direction). Figure 3 In the example, the first lock buckle 321 also includes an elastic hook 326 and a pry handle 327 disposed on one side of the lock buckle body 323 in the height direction (i.e., the aforementioned second direction). The pry handle 327 is located at one end of the lock buckle body 323 provided with the second guide column 325. The elastic hook 326 is bent from one end of the lock buckle body 323 provided with the first guide column 324 and extends toward the pry handle 327, and the inner concave side of the elastic hook 326 faces the lock buckle body 323. In addition, in Figure 3In the example, the end of the lock body 323 provided with the second guide column 325 is also provided with a universal joint slot 328 and a spring slot 329, the universal joint slot 328 is located at the end of the lock body 323 corresponding to the area between the pry handle 327 and the second guide slot 312, and the spring slot 329 and the pry handle 327 are respectively located on opposite sides of the lock body 323 in the height direction. Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the spring slot 329 is used to connect the end of the second elastic member 33 close to the first lock buckle 321; the universal joint slot 328 is used to be movably connected with the second end of the piston rod 342 (i.e., the end located outside the cylinder body 341), so that when the first trigger block 1 abuts against the pry handle 327 of the first lock buckle 321 and the first guide slide 324 is located in the corresponding arc groove 3112 of the first guide slide 311, the first lock buckle 321 can rotate relative to the second end of the piston rod 342, thereby allowing the first guide slide 324 to slide from the arc groove 3112 of the first guide slide 311 into the strip groove 3111 of the first guide slide 311. It should be noted that, as Figures 3 to 7 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the structure of the second lock buckle 322 is completely the same as that of the first lock buckle 321 , and the specific structure will not be repeated here.
[0062] exist Figures 3 to 7 In the example, the first lock buckle 321 and the second lock buckle 322 are respectively installed at the opposite ends of the receiving groove 310 of the frame 31 in the first direction. Specifically, the first lock buckle 321 is installed at one end of the receiving groove 310 corresponding to the first guide slide groove 311, and the first guide slide column 324 and the second guide slide column 325 of the first lock buckle 321 on each side of the third direction are respectively installed in the first guide slide groove 311 on the corresponding side of the frame 31 in the third direction; the second lock buckle 322 is installed at one end of the receiving groove 310 corresponding to the second guide slide groove 312, and the first guide slide column 324 and the second guide slide column 325 of the second lock buckle 322 on each side of the third direction are respectively installed in the second guide slide groove 312 on the corresponding side of the frame 31 in the third direction; wherein, the ends of the first lock buckle 321 and the second lock buckle 322 provided with the first guide slide column 324 are separated from each other, and the ends provided with the second guide slide column 325 are close to each other and are limited to slide in the bar groove 3111 of the corresponding guide slide groove.
[0063] Preferably, in the embodiment of the utility model, among the surfaces of the first guide slide post 324 of each lock buckle 32, at least the portion used for sliding contact with the corresponding guide slide groove is a curved surface, so as to facilitate the first guide slide post 324 to slide in the corresponding guide slide groove. Also preferably, among the surfaces of the second guide slide post 325 of each lock buckle 32, at least the portion used for sliding contact with the corresponding guide slide groove is a curved surface, so as to facilitate the second guide slide post 325 to slide in the strip groove 3111 of the corresponding guide slide groove. Specifically, in Figures 3 to 7The second guide slide post 325 is an approximately semi-cylindrical guide slide post, and the surface of the second guide slide post 325 for sliding contact with the two inner wall surfaces of the strip groove 3111 in the second direction is an arc surface, and the second guide slide post 325 has a plane in the circumferential direction, which is opposite to the inner wall surface of the end of the strip groove 3111 away from the arc groove 3112, so that the second guide slide post 325 can abut the inner wall surface of the end when it slides in the strip groove 3111 to the end of the strip groove 3111 away from the arc groove 3112. The second guide slide post 325 abuts against the inner wall surface of the strip groove 3111 in a plane manner, with a large contact area and a good top-stopping effect.
[0064] Of course, in other embodiments, the first guide slide column 324 can also be an approximately semi-cylindrical guide slide column, and the second guide slide column 325 can also be a complete cylindrical guide slide column. As long as the first guide slide column 324 and the second guide slide column 325 can slide in the corresponding guide slide groove, the specific structure of the first guide slide column 324 and the second guide slide column 325 is not limited.
[0065] It should be noted that if Figure 5 As shown, the spring slots 329 of the first lock buckle 321 and the second lock buckle 322 are respectively engaged with the opposite ends of the second elastic member 33, wherein the second elastic member 33 can be but is not limited to an elastic element such as a spring, a rubber band, etc., preferably a spring. Figure 1 As shown, the pry handles 327 of the first lock buckle 321 and the second lock buckle 322 are at least partially extended and exposed on a side surface of the frame 31 away from the second elastic member 33 in the second direction, so as to cooperate with the corresponding trigger block, which will be described in detail later.
[0066] Please refer again Figures 3 to 6 In one embodiment of the present invention, the cylinder body 341 includes a cylinder barrel 3410, a first sealing plug 3411 and a second sealing plug 3412. The cylinder barrel 3410 is a barrel with openings at both axial ends. The first sealing plug 3411 and the second sealing plug 3412 are respectively fixedly installed at the openings at both axial ends of the cylinder barrel 3410, and the first sealing plug 3411 and the second sealing plug 3412 are sealedly connected to the cylinder barrel 3410. Among them, the first sealing plug 3411 is provided with a through hole for the piston rod 342 to pass through. Optionally, as Fig. 9 As shown, in order to improve the convenience of setting the oil seal 344, the inner wall of the cylinder 3410 is provided with an annular step 3415. When the oil seal 344 is set in the cylinder body 341, the side of the oil seal 344 close to the one-way valve 343 abuts against the annular step 3415, indicating that the oil seal 344 is set in place. Figure 5As shown, the cylinder 3410 is provided with a ventilation hole 3413 which passes through the cylinder 3410. The ventilation hole 2413 connects the external space of the cylinder 3410 with the inner cavity of the cylinder 3410 located between the first sealing plug 3411 and the oil seal 344, thereby avoiding that the inner cavity of the cylinder 3410 located between the first sealing plug 3411 and the oil seal 344 constitutes a closed space, thereby reducing the resistance of the oil seal 344 when sliding in the cylinder 3410.
[0067] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the second end of the piston rod 342 (i.e., the end located outside the cylinder body 341) is movably connected to the first lock buckle 321 through the first ball head connector 3421. Figures 3 to 6 In the example, the first ball head connector 3421 includes a connecting sleeve and a ball head connected to one end of the connecting sleeve, the connecting sleeve is fixedly sleeved on the second end of the piston rod 342, and the ball head is embedded in the universal joint slot 328 of the first lock buckle 321 (see Figure 7 ), thereby movably connecting the second end of the piston rod 342 to the first lock buckle 321. Of course, the piston rod 342 can also be directly provided with a ball head at the end of the second end, and then embedded in the universal joint slot 328 of the first lock buckle 321 through the ball head, so that the second end of the piston rod 342 can also be movably connected to the first lock buckle 321. It is not difficult to understand that the second end of the piston rod 342 is movably connected to the first lock buckle 321 through the ball head, which not only has good connection mobility, but also facilitates quick disassembly and assembly.
[0068] In other embodiments, the second end of the piston rod 342 can be provided with a column head extending along the third direction, and the first lock buckle 321 is provided with a corresponding column groove, and the column head is installed in the corresponding column groove, so that the second end of the piston rod 342 can be movably connected to the first lock buckle 321.
[0069] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the second end of the piston rod 342 can also be movably connected to the first lock buckle 321 by other connection methods. As long as it can be ensured that when the pry handle 327 of the first lock buckle 321 is triggered by the corresponding first trigger block 1, the first lock buckle 321 can be rotated relative to the end of the second end of the piston rod 342 to make the first guide slide column 324 of the first lock buckle 321 slide from the corresponding arc groove 3112 of the guide groove into the strip groove 3111 of the guide groove. No further details are given on this.
[0070] like Figures 3 to 6As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the buffer oil cylinder 34 includes a connecting rod 347 connected to one end of the cylinder body 341 away from the piston rod 342, the connecting rod 347 extends along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341, and the axis of the connecting rod 347 coincides with the axis of the piston rod 342. It is not difficult to understand that when the second end of the piston rod 342 or the end of the connecting rod 347 away from the piston rod 342 is subjected to force, that is, the buffer oil cylinder 34 is subjected to a force along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341 and directed into the cylinder body 341, as described above, the piston rod 342 can move along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341, so that the one-way valve 343 generates greater damping when the piston rod 342 moves along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341 toward the cylinder body 341, thereby playing a buffering role.
[0071] exist Figures 3 to 6 In the example, any of the above-mentioned methods of movably connecting the piston rod 342 to the first lock buckle 321 can be used to movably connect the end of the connecting rod 347 away from the piston rod 342 to the second lock buckle 322, which will not be described in detail. Preferably, the end of the connecting rod 347 away from the piston rod 342 is movably connected to the second lock buckle 322 through the second ball head connector 3472, so that the connection between the connecting rod 347 and the second lock buckle 322 is flexible and easy to quickly disassemble and assemble.
[0072] Please combine Figure 5 and Figure 8 In one embodiment of the present utility model, the one-way valve 343 further includes a valve plug 3433, and the valve plug 3433 includes a plug seat 34331 and a plug column 34332 protruding from one side of the plug seat 34331. In this embodiment, the plug column 34332 is connected to the valve core 3431 and / or the piston rod 342 to fix the valve plug 3433, and the valve plug 3433 is provided with the aforementioned stopper structure.
[0073] Specifically, in Figure 5 and Figure 8 In the example, the valve core 3431 is an annular valve core with mounting holes extending through both ends along the axial direction and an axial cross section that is roughly in the shape of a "convex" character. The valve core 3431 is fixedly sleeved on the end of the first end of the piston rod 342, and a plug hole is formed between the valve core 3431 and the end of the first end of the piston rod 342, and the end of the plug 34332 away from the plug seat 34331 is inserted into the plug hole, thereby fixing the valve plug 3433 to the valve core 3431. In other embodiments, the valve plug 3433 may also be plugged with the first end of the piston rod 342, or may be fixedly connected to the valve core 3431 and / or the first end of the piston rod 342 by threaded connection, which is not limited thereto.
[0074] exist Figure 5 and Figure 8In the example, the valve disc 3432 is movably sleeved on the plug 34332, so that it can move along the axial direction of the plug 34332 (that is, the axial direction of the cylinder 341) under the action of the fluid thrust of the oil. In this embodiment, along the radial direction of the cylinder 341, the size of the plug 34332 is smaller than the size of the plug seat 34331, and the portion of the plug seat 34331 that exceeds the plug 34332 in the radial direction of the cylinder 341 (that is, the edge portion of the plug seat 34331) constitutes the aforementioned stop structure. In this way, when the valve disc 3432 is subjected to the fluid thrust of the oil, the valve disc 3432 can move between the valve core 3431 and the stop structure along the axial direction of the plug 34332. Among them, the plug seat 34331 is not limited to adopting a round cake-shaped structure or a boss-shaped structure, as long as the size of the plug seat 34331 along the radial direction of the cylinder 341 is larger than the size of the plug 34332 along the radial direction of the cylinder 341, there is no limitation on this.
[0075] Further, please combine Figure 8 and Fig.10 In one embodiment of the present invention, the valve core 3431 is provided with at least two through holes 34311, and the at least two through holes 34311 are spaced apart along the circumference of the valve core 3431. It can be understood that the valve core 3431 is provided with at least two through holes 34311, which can increase the oil flow rate between the first cavity and the second cavity of the aforementioned oil storage cavity 340 when the through holes 34311 are opened. Figure 8 and Fig.10 As shown, in this embodiment, a connecting rib 34312 is formed between every two adjacent through holes 34311, and the surface of the connecting rib 34312 facing the valve plate 3432 is closer to the oil seal 344 than the surface of the other parts of the valve core 3431 except the connecting rib 34312 facing the valve plate 3432, and a depression is formed between the connecting rib 34312 and the other parts of the valve core 3431 except the connecting rib 34312. It is easy to understand that by forming a depression at the connecting rib 34312 of the valve core 3431, the sealing performance of the valve plate 3432 when blocking the through hole 34311 can be improved.
[0076] Please combine Figure 5 and Fig. 9In one embodiment of the present utility model, the buffer oil cylinder 34 further includes a stopper 346, which is movably sleeved on the outer wall of the rod portion of the piston rod 342 extending into the cylinder body 341 and is located on the side of the oil seal 344 away from the one-way valve 343, and one end of the first elastic member 345 close to the oil seal 344 abuts against the stopper 346. The stopper 346 is connected to the oil seal 344 and has a bearing surface 3460 facing the oil seal 344, and the bearing surface 3460 abuts against the side of the oil seal 344 away from the one-way valve 343. In this embodiment, by adding the stopper 346 with the bearing surface 3460 and abutting against the side of the oil seal 344 away from the one-way valve 343 through the bearing surface 3460, it is possible to avoid excessive elastic deformation of the oil seal 344 when it moves along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341, thereby ensuring the sealing effect of the oil seal 344.
[0077] Specifically, in Figure 5 and Fig. 9 In the example, the stopper 346 includes a bearing portion 3461 and a column portion 3462, wherein the column portion 3462 is convexly arranged on the side of the bearing portion 3461 away from the oil seal 344, and the oil seal 344 is connected to the side of the bearing portion 3461 away from the column portion 3462. Among them, a bearing surface 3460 is provided on the side of the bearing portion 3461 facing the oil seal 344, and an abutting surface 3463 not blocked by the column portion 3462 is provided on the side of the bearing portion 3461 facing away from the oil seal 344. One end of the first elastic member 345 close to the oil seal 344 is sleeved on the outer wall of the column portion 3462 and abuts against the abutting surface 3463, so that the connection stability between the first elastic member 345 and the stopper 346 can also be enhanced, thereby ensuring that the first elastic member 345 can provide the oil seal 344 with a stable thrust directed to the one-way valve 343.
[0078] Optionally, in Figure 5 and Fig. 9 In the example, the bearing part 3461 is provided with a first positioning structure, and the first positioning structure is located on the side of the bearing part 3461 away from the column part 3462. Correspondingly, the side of the oil seal 344 away from the one-way valve 343 is provided with a second positioning structure, and the second positioning structure is adapted to the first positioning structure to position and install the oil seal 344 on the bearing part 3461. Among them, the first positioning structure is a positioning flange 3464 formed on the side of the bearing part 3461 away from the column part 3462, and the second positioning structure is a positioning groove 3441 opened on the side of the oil seal 344 facing the stopper 346, and the positioning flange 3464 is inserted into the positioning groove 3441, so as to position and install the oil seal 344 on the bearing part 3461. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the first positioning structure and the second positioning structure can also be a combination of other positioning structures, such as but not limited to the combination of positioning holes and positioning columns, which is not limited to this.
[0079] Please refer again Figure 3 and Figure 5 In one embodiment of the present invention, the bidirectional buffer 3 further includes a protective tube 35 fixedly mounted on the frame 31, and the protective tube 35 is sleeved on the outside of the buffer cylinder 34. Among them, at least two ends of the buffer cylinder 34 for connecting a pair of lock buckles 32 are always located outside the protective tube 35, that is, at least part of the buffer cylinder 34 is located in the protective tube 35. In this embodiment, by sleeved on the outside of the buffer cylinder 34, when the end of the buffer cylinder 34 away from the piston rod 342 is subjected to a force along the axial direction of the cylinder body 341 and pointing to the inside of the cylinder body 341, the buffer cylinder 34 at least partially slides within the limit of the protective tube 35, which can ensure that the force (such as the huge impact force when the sliding door is closed) is large, and the buffer cylinder 34 is not easy to break when realizing the buffering function. Among them, the protective tube 35 can be fixed to the frame 31 by, but not limited to, a snap connection, a threaded connection, etc., which is not limited to this.
[0080] Preferably, Figure 3 and Figure 5 In the example, the bidirectional buffer 3 further includes a first pipe plug 36, which is disposed at the pipe opening of the end of the protection tube 35 close to the piston rod 342, and the first pipe plug 36 has a first through hole for the piston rod 342 to pass through; and / or, the bidirectional buffer 3 further includes a second pipe plug, which is disposed at the pipe opening of the end of the protection tube 35 away from the piston rod 342, and the second pipe plug has a second through hole for the end of the buffer cylinder 34 away from the piston rod 342 (i.e., the end of the connecting rod 347) to pass through. It can be understood that by arranging the first pipe plug 36 and / or the second pipe plug at the end pipe opening of the protection tube 35, a sealing effect can be achieved to prevent dust and other debris from entering the protection tube 35.
[0081] The following will be combined Figures 11 to 16 , taking the application of the bidirectional buffer device 100 in a wardrobe as an example, the use principle of the bidirectional buffer device 100 provided in one embodiment of the utility model is described in detail.
[0082] like Fig.11 and Fig.12 As shown, in the initial state, the sliding door of the wardrobe (not shown in the figure) is in the middle position of the wardrobe body 200. At this time, the first guide slide column 324 of the lock buckle 32 at each end of the bidirectional buffer device 100 in the first direction falls into the arc groove 3112 of the corresponding guide slide groove, and the second elastic member 33 (spring) is in a stretched and force-storing state.
[0083] like Fig.13As shown, when the sliding door and the two-way buffer 3 move to the left relative to the cabinet 200, the pry handle 327 of the first lock buckle 321 touches the first trigger block 1. Under the action of the first trigger block 1, the first lock buckle 321 rotates in the clockwise direction as shown in the figure relative to the end of the piston rod 342, so that the first guide slide column 324 of the first lock buckle 321 slides from the arc groove 3112 of the first guide groove 311 into the strip groove 3111 of the first guide groove 311. At this time, the elastic hook 326 of the first lock buckle 321 is engaged with the first trigger block 1, that is, the first lock buckle 321 does not move relative to the cabinet 200. It can be understood that the sliding door and the two-way buffer 3 will automatically close to the left under the pulling force of the second elastic member 33. It should be noted that, in the process of the sliding door closing to the left, the piston rod 342 and the one-way valve 343 move to the right relative to the cylinder body 341, and the oil is forced to move to the left, so that the valve plate 3432 of the one-way valve 343 moves to the left under the drive of the oil, thereby blocking the through hole 34311 of the valve core 3431, and the oil can only flow through the gap between the valve core 3431 and the cylinder body 341, thereby generating a large damping, playing a buffering role, and making the sliding door close slowly. Furthermore, since the piston rod 342 moves to the right relative to the cylinder body 341, it will occupy the volume between the second cavity of the oil storage cavity 340, so the oil seal 344 moves to the left relative to the cylinder body 341 to adjust and increase the volume occupied by the piston rod 342.
[0084] like Fig.14 As shown, when the sliding door 326 is opened to the right together with the two-way buffer 3 after being closed to the left, since the elastic hook 326 of the first lock buckle 321 is engaged with the first trigger block 1, that is, the first lock buckle 321 is stationary relative to the cabinet 200, the first lock buckle 321 rotates in the counterclockwise direction as shown in the figure relative to the end of the piston rod 342, so that the first guide slide column 324 of the first lock buckle 321 slides from the strip groove 3111 of the first guide groove 311 into the arc groove 3112 of the first guide groove 311, and the elastic hook 326 of the first lock buckle 321 disengages from the first trigger block 1, and the two-way buffer 3 moves away from the first trigger block 1, so that the second elastic member 33 is stretched to complete the force storage. It should be noted that during this process, the piston rod 342 and the one-way valve 343 move to the left relative to the cylinder body 341, and the oil is forced to move to the right. The valve plate 3432 moves to the right driven by the oil, so that the through hole 34311 of the valve core 3431 is opened, and the oil can quickly flow through the through hole 34311 of the valve core 3431 and the gap between the valve core 3431 and the cylinder body 341. At this time, the damping is very small, and the sliding door can be opened to the right relatively easily until it returns to the Fig.11In the initial state shown, the sliding door and the two-way buffer 3 are in the middle of the cabinet 200. In the above process, since the piston rod 342 moves to the left relative to the cylinder 341, the piston rod 342 withdraws from the volume between the second cavity of the oil storage cavity 340, so the oil seal 344 moves to the right relative to the cylinder 341 to adjust and reduce the corresponding volume.
[0085] like Fig.15 As shown, when the sliding door and the two-way buffer 3 move to the right relative to the cabinet body 200, the pry handle 327 of the second lock buckle 322 touches the second trigger block 2. Under the action of the first trigger block 1, the second lock buckle 322 rotates counterclockwise as shown in the figure relative to the end of the connecting rod 347, so that the first guide slide column 324 of the second lock buckle 322 slides from the arc groove 3112 of the second guide groove 312 into the strip groove 3111 of the second guide groove 312. At this time, the elastic hook 326 of the second lock buckle 322 is engaged with the second trigger block 2, that is, the second lock buckle 322 is immovable relative to the cabinet body 200. It can be understood that the sliding door and the two-way buffer 3 will automatically close to the right under the pulling force of the second elastic member 33. It should be noted that in the process of closing the sliding door to the right, the piston rod 342 and the one-way valve 343 are fixed relative to the cylinder body 341, the protective tube 35 is fixed on the frame 31, and the connecting rod 347 on the right side of the buffer cylinder 34 is fixed to the cylinder 3410 through the second sealing plug 3412, so that they slide to the left in the protective tube 35 relative to the piston rod 342 and the one-way valve 343, and the oil is forced to move to the left relative to the one-way valve 343. The valve plate 3432 moves to the left driven by the oil, and the through hole 34311 of the valve core 3431 is blocked. The oil can only flow through the gap between the valve core 3431 and the cylinder body 341, at this time, a larger damping is generated, thereby playing a buffering role, so that the sliding door closes slowly. Similarly, since the piston rod 342 moves rightward relative to the cylinder body 341 , it will occupy the volume between the second cavities of the oil storage chamber 340 , so the oil seal 344 moves leftward relative to the cylinder body 341 to adjust and increase the volume occupied by the piston rod 342 .
[0086] like Fig.16As shown, when the sliding door 326 is opened to the left together with the two-way buffer 3 after being closed to the right, since the elastic hook 326 of the second lock buckle 322 is engaged with the second trigger block 2, that is, the second lock buckle 322 is stationary relative to the cabinet 200, the second lock buckle 322 rotates in the clockwise direction as shown in the figure relative to the end of the connecting rod 347, so that the first guide slide column 324 of the second lock buckle 322 slides from the strip groove 3111 of the second guide groove 312 into the arc groove 3112 of the second guide groove 312, and the elastic hook 326 of the second lock buckle 322 is disengaged from the second trigger block 2, and the two-way buffer 3 is away from the second trigger block 2, so that the second elastic member 33 is stretched to complete the force storage. It should be noted that, during this process, the connecting rod 347 slides to the right in the protection tube 35 together with the cylinder 3410 via the second sealing plug 3412 relative to the piston rod 342 and the one-way valve 343, and the oil is forced to move to the right relative to the one-way valve 343. The valve plate 3432 moves to the right driven by the oil, so that the through hole 34311 of the valve core 3431 is opened, and the oil can quickly flow through the through hole 34311 of the valve core 3431 and the gap between the valve core 3431 and the cylinder body 341. At this time, the damping is very small, and the sliding door can be opened to the left relatively easily until it returns to the left. Fig.11 In the initial state shown, the sliding door and the two-way buffer 3 are in the middle of the cabinet 200. In the above process, since the piston rod 342 moves to the left relative to the cylinder 341, the piston rod 342 withdraws from the volume between the second cavity of the oil storage cavity 340, so the oil seal 344 moves to the right relative to the cylinder 341 to adjust and reduce the corresponding volume.
