Detailed Embodiments

[0022] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0023] Please refer to Figures 1 to 8 , the present invention provides a technical solution: a magnetic coupling type rodless cylinder, which includes two end covers 1, a cylinder barrel 3 fixedly installed between the two end covers 1, and an outer piston 17 movably sleeved outside the cylinder barrel 3. A plurality of outer magnetic rings 18 are embedded on the outer piston 17. An inner piston 19 is movably installed inside the cylinder barrel 3. Inner magnetic rings 20 corresponding to the outer magnetic rings 18 are embedded on the inner piston 19, and the inner magnetic rings 20 and the outer magnetic rings 18 have opposite magnetic polarities. A slider 7 is fixedly installed on the outer piston 17. Clamping rings 10 are installed on the inner sides of both ends of the slider 7. Brush hairs 8 are arranged in a ring shape on the inner side walls of the clamping rings 10. When the slider 7 moves, the brush hairs 8 can push and sweep away the dust adhering to the outside of the cylinder barrel 3. The dust will be pushed by the brush hairs 8 to the conical ring 15. When part of the dust moves along the conical ring 15, it will directly fall off and separate from the cylinder barrel 3. Part of the dust will move along the conical ring 15 until it falls into the groove 14. There is also a part of the dust adhering to the brush hairs 8. When the brush hairs 8 move above the groove 14 and then return, the outer edge of the conical ring 15 will scrape off the dust adhering to the brush hairs 8, thereby preventing the dust from adhering to the outside of the cylinder barrel 3. One end of the brush hairs 8 away from the clamping ring 10 closely adheres to the outer side wall of the cylinder barrel 3. Conical rings 15 are symmetrically arranged on the outside of the cylinder barrel 3. The conical rings 15 are used to scrape off the dust adhering to the brush hairs 8. A groove 14 is arranged on the outside of the cylinder barrel 3 and on the side adjacent to the conical ring 15. When the brush hairs 8 move above the groove 14, the brush hairs 8 will not enter the groove 14 to avoid the brush hairs 8 contacting the dust in the groove 14. Seals 16 are installed at both ends of the outer piston 17 and inside the slider 7. The seals 16 are used to seal between the slider 7 and the cylinder barrel 3 to prevent dust from entering between the outer piston 17 and the cylinder barrel 3, resulting in wear of the outer piston 17 or the cylinder barrel 3. The seals 16 are slidably connected to the cylinder barrel 3.

[0024] Wherein, fixing ears 11 are integrally formed on the outside of the clamping ring 10. Screws 12 are threadedly connected to the fixing ears 11. The screws 12 are used to fix the clamping ring 10 on the slider 7. Using the screws 12 for fixation facilitates people to disassemble and assemble the clamping ring 10. Screw holes matching the screws 12 are arranged at both ends of the slider 7.

[0025] Wherein, sealing end sleeves 13 are arranged at both ends of the cylinder barrel 3. The sealing end sleeves 13 are used to seal between the cylinder barrel 3 and the end covers 1 to avoid leakage.

[0026] Among them, two guide rods 4 are fixedly connected between two end caps 1. The guide rods 4 are used to guide the slider 7, prevent the slider 7 from deflecting during movement, improve the stability of the slider 7 during movement, and the slider 7 is slidably connected to the guide rods 4.

[0027] Among them, hydraulic buffers 2 are installed on both end caps 1. The hydraulic buffers 2 are used to buffer the impact of the slider 7, thereby protecting the slider 7 and the end caps 1 and extending their service life.

[0028] Among them, mounting rods 5 are fixedly connected to the outer sides of the two end caps 1. Two mounting grooves 6 are provided on one side of the mounting rods 5. The cross-section of one mounting groove 6 is circular, and the cross-section of the other mounting groove 6 is square, so that they can be used to mount a circular magnetic switch or a square magnetic switch respectively.

[0029] Among them, an iron core 9 is provided in the middle of the inner magnetic ring 20. The iron core 9 can effectively gather the magnetic field generated by the inner magnetic ring 20 together, thereby enhancing the magnetic field intensity.

[0030] Specifically, during use, compressed gas enters the cylinder barrel 3 to push the inner piston 19 to move. The inner piston 19 drives the inner magnetic ring 20 to move. The inner magnetic ring 20 makes the outer magnetic ring 18 move through magnetic force. The outer magnetic ring 18 makes the outer piston 17 move. The outer piston 17 drives the slider 7 to move to realize the action of the air cylinder. When the slider 7 moves, it will drive the brush 8 to move. The brush 8 pushes and sweeps the dust attached to the outside of the cylinder barrel 3. The dust will be pushed by the brush 8 to the conical ring 15. Some dust will directly fall off when moving along the conical ring 15 and separate from the cylinder barrel 3. Some dust will move along the conical ring 15 until it falls into the groove 14. There is also a part of the dust attached to the brush 8. When the brush 8 moves above the groove 14 and returns, the outer edge of the conical ring 15 will scrape off the dust attached to the brush 8, thereby preventing the dust from adhering to the outside of the cylinder barrel 3. And a seal 16 is provided to seal between the slider 7 and the cylinder barrel 3 to prevent the dust missed by the brush 8 from entering between the outer piston 17 and the cylinder barrel 3, resulting in wear of the outer piston 17 or the cylinder barrel 3.
