Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of air springs, in particular to a hot-melt welding device for an upper air chamber of an air spring. Background Art
[0002] With the increasing demand for driving comfort, the shock absorption design of automobile chassis faces more stringent requirements. The traditional steel coil spring shock absorption system has limitations in providing comfortable shock absorption effects because its natural frequency is greatly affected by the deformation distance and the deformation range is limited, especially when driving on bumpy roads, its comfort performance is not satisfactory. For this reason, air springs, as an elastic element with ideal nonlinear mechanical properties, have gradually been widely used in many fields such as commercial vehicle cabs, train secondary suspensions, vehicle suspensions, and equipment shock absorption.
[0003] In the manufacture of air springs, aluminum alloy parts play a pivotal role, but their high cost and heavy weight have always been problems that cannot be ignored. In order to better adapt to market trends, break through existing challenges, and meet the diverse needs of customers, we have innovatively developed an air spring upper chamber assembly that uses plastic instead of metal. This upper chamber assembly includes an injection-molded chamber upper cover and a chamber lower cover, which are fused and solidified by a hot melt device and finally integrated into one. However, in the existing hot melt welding process, we found that the hot melt device heated the molten surface of the chamber upper cover or chamber lower cover unevenly. Due to the design of the equipment, the distribution of the heating elements, and the difference in heat conduction efficiency, some areas of the chamber upper cover and lower cover are overheated, while other areas are not heated enough. This uneven heating makes the temperature distribution of the molten surface uneven, which in turn affects the fluidity and adhesion of the molten material. When the area with a higher temperature on the molten surface meets the area with a lower temperature, due to the thermal expansion and contraction effect and the difference in adhesion, cracks are easily generated at the fusion weld, resulting in loose welding, which seriously affects the product yield.
