[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model in detail. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0023] Combined with Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a piston includes a piston body 1 with a cylindrical structure. An inner concave roller groove 11 is provided on one end face of the piston body 1. A roller 2 is rotatably arranged in the roller groove 11. A semi-circular bearing 3 is arranged between the inner wall of the roller groove 11 and the roller 2. The semi-circular bearing 3 includes an outer ring 31 embedded in the roller groove 11. An arc-shaped first groove is concavely provided on the inner wall of the outer ring 31. A number of rolling needles 32 that rollingly abut against the surface of the roller 2 are arranged in the first groove.
[0024] In this technical solution, a U-shaped opening groove is concavely provided at one end of the piston body to be used as the roller groove. The semi-circular bearing is embedded in the inner wall of the roller groove by conventional interference fit or other means. The rolling needles are parallel to the axial direction of the roller and rollingly abut against the surface of the roller. U-shaped grooves corresponding to the roller shafts of the roller are respectively provided on both side walls of the roller groove, and can accommodate the rotation of the roller shafts of the roller. When the camshaft rotates, the rolling needles and the roller rollingly abut to provide support for the roller. There is no pressure between the roller and the roller shaft and between the roller shaft and the piston body, avoiding damage and thus prolonging the overall service life of the piston.
[0025] Exemplarily, combined with Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the adjacent rolling needles 32 are arranged at intervals.
[0026] In this technical solution, the adjacent rolling needles are arranged at intervals to avoid the jamming phenomenon caused by the extrusion between the rolling needles.
[0027] Exemplarily, combined with Figures 1 to 5 As shown, there is an interval between the rolling needle 32 and the bottom wall of the first groove.
[0028] In this technical solution, the rolling needle is suspended to avoid the jamming phenomenon caused by the extrusion between the rolling needle and the bottom wall of the first groove.
[0029] Exemplarily, combined with Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a U-shaped opening groove or a through hole and other structures are provided in the side wall of the first groove. The two ends of the rolling needle respectively protrude connecting heads and are rotatably arranged in the corresponding U-shaped opening groove or through hole to ensure the free rotation of the rolling needle. At the same time, there is an interval between the rolling needles and between the rolling needle and the bottom wall.
[0030] Exemplarily, combined with Figures 1 to 3 As shown, stoppers 4 are respectively arranged at both ends of the semi-circular bearing 3, and the stoppers are embedded in the roller groove 11.
[0031] In this technical solution, the stopper is embedded in the inner wall of the roller groove by conventional interference fit or other means and does not protrude from the end face of the piston body, without interfering with the normal use of the piston.
[0032] Exemplarily, combined withFigure 2 As shown, the side of the stopper 4 close to the roller 2 protrudes from the inner wall of the roller groove 11 and is spaced apart from the roller 2 .
[0033] In this technical solution, two blocks are respectively arranged on both sides of the opening end of the roller groove, which reduces the possibility of foreign matter entering the semicircular bearing, and the blocks do not interfere with the free rotation of the roller.
[0034] For example, in combination Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a first flow channel 12 is provided in the piston body 1 along its axial direction, and the first flow channel 12 is connected to the roller groove 11 .
[0035] In this technical solution, the first flow channel is used to install valves such as a pressure relief valve / a one-way valve, and the specific structure and principle are prior art and will not be described in detail here.
[0036] For example, in combination Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the inner wall of the roller groove 11 is recessed with a second groove 13 connected to the first flow channel.
[0037] In this technical solution, the second groove connects the first flow channel to the side of the piston body close to the roller, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the valve in the first flow channel.
[0038] For example, in combination Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a second flow channel 14 is concavely provided in the circumferential surface of the piston body 1 and is arranged along the end surface of the piston body 1 facing away from the roller 2 .
[0039] In this technical solution, the second flow channel is arranged in conjunction with the hole / flow channel in the door closer housing. The specific structure and principle are prior art and will not be described in detail here.
[0040] For example, in combination Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an annular sealing groove 15 is concavely provided on the circumferential surface of the piston body 1, and a limiting groove corresponding to the door closer spring is concavely provided on the end surface of the piston body 1 facing away from the roller 2 to avoid failure caused by spring tilt.
[0041] In this technical solution, the sealing groove is used to install a conventional sealing ring to improve the sealing between the piston body and the door closer housing.
[0042] A door closer comprises a housing, wherein the piston is slidably arranged in the housing of the door closer, and the roller and its roller shaft will not be damaged due to the extrusion of the camshaft, thereby extending their service life, thereby extending the service life of the door closer.
[0043] In summary, the door closer and the piston of the utility model have a simple structure, and the semicircular bearing provides support for the roller, thereby increasing the force-bearing area of the roller, reducing the possibility of roller damage, and extending the service life.
