Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of air suspensions, in particular to an air suspension for a semitrailer. Background Art
[0002] Air suspension is a shock absorber that relies on a powerful air pump to inflate each air chamber. In order to improve the smoothness of the vehicle, reduce fuel consumption and reduce tire wear, many semi-trailers use a liftable air suspension structure to lift the first axle or the first and second axles when the vehicle is unloaded.
[0003] The invention patent with the current patent publication number CN209616827U discloses an air suspension for a semi-trailer. During the use of the air bag suspension, the air bag suspension often drives the axle and the guide rod to move up and down. During the movement of the axle, dust in the air is adsorbed on the surface of the guide rod, and the guide rod enters the interior of the air bag suspension. The dust accumulates at the connection between the air bag suspension and the guide rod along with the guide rod, which is inconvenient for the movement of the guide rod. By setting the spring guide arm as a single-piece structure and a left air spring, and the lifting upper cross beam and the lifting lower support beam as a hollow structure, the weight of the entire semi-trailer air suspension is reduced, thereby ensuring that the tractor has good smoothness and handling stability.
[0004] When the existing semi-trailer air suspension is in use, the airbag is exposed under the semi-trailer body. During driving, the wheels will pick up gravel on the road. When the gravel hits the airbag, the airbag will be damaged by the impact force of the gravel. At the same time, the airbag is easily corroded and aged by light, oxygen, ozone, oil, etc., which affects the service life of the airbag. In order to solve the above problems, a semi-trailer air suspension is proposed in the present application. Utility Model Content
