Description

Technical Field

[0001] The application of the utility model relates to the technical field of shock absorbers, specifically a double-spring shock absorber. Background Art

[0002] In a common suspension system, a single mechanical spring is generally adopted. The traditional spring shock absorber mainly absorbs and releases energy through the elastic deformation of the spring. When subjected to an external excitation, the spring will undergo compression or tensile deformation to absorb energy. When the external excitation disappears, the spring will return to its original state and release the absorbed energy, thereby reducing mechanical vibration and impact. However, the spring cannot store its energy and will inevitably rebound and deform to release energy. The stiffness of the mechanical spring and the elastic energy of shock absorption are fixed, and the spring rebounds instantaneously. When the driving road conditions are different, affected by the characteristics and structure of the spring itself, the shock absorption effect of the shock absorber cannot reach the ideal requirement, thus affecting the comfort of driving and riding.

At the inner top of the upper cylinder cover 204, an upper spring fixing seat 211 is provided. The lower cylinder cover 210 is slidably arranged inside the upper cylinder cover 204. A groove is provided on the end face of the lower cylinder cover 210, and a lower spring fixing seat 207 is arranged inside the groove. A disc spring 208 is arranged between the upper spring fixing seat 211 and the lower spring fixing seat 207.

When the first spring 12 is squeezed, the first spring 12 will push the upper spring seat 23 upward, squeezing the lower cylinder cover 210 to move upward simultaneously. The upward movement of the lower cylinder cover 210 will squeeze the disc spring 208 to cause its elastic deformation, so that the two springs are deformed simultaneously for shock absorption.

[0022] The through hole opened at the upper end of the lower cylinder cover 210 is inserted and slidably matched with the piston rod 19. A connection joint is arranged at the end of the upper cylinder cover 204, and a pressure maintaining valve assembly 30 is arranged inside the connection joint. A second dust cover 25 is arranged outside the upper cylinder cover 204 for protecting against dust.

[0023] An inwardly concave semi-circular ring groove is arranged inside the lower part of the inner buffer block 21. When the lower part of the inner buffer block 21 comes into contact with the anti-collision cover 18, it can be buffered immediately through the compression deformation of the semi-circular ring groove.

[0024] The lower end of the second dust cover 25 is arranged outside the upper spring seat 23.

[0025] A second retaining ring 13 is arranged outside the oil storage cylinder 5 for limiting the extreme position of the movement of the first dust cover 20.

[0026] By adjusting the valve disc and nut of the rebound valve assembly 14, the shock absorber oil flows back and forth through the pores of the rebound valve assembly 14. The valve has a large damping force on the oil, causing the vibration to decay. The cylinder of the oil storage cylinder 5 is provided with an aluminum floating piston 6, which separates the shock absorber oil from nitrogen. The floating piston 6 is provided with a first O-ring 7 with a large cross-section and a first guide strip 8 made of polytetrafluoroethylene. The first O-ring 7 plays a sealing role, and the first guide strip 8 prevents the floating piston 6 from directly contacting the inner wall of the cylinder of the oil storage cylinder 5. Its material characteristics are corrosion resistance, high abrasion resistance, and high temperature resistance, ensuring a long service life. The other end of the piston rod 19 is provided with a buffer pad 202 made of rubber to prevent the piston rod 19 from directly contacting the guide assembly and play a buffer and shock absorption role. The spring seat outside the cylinder of the oil storage cylinder 5 is made of high-strength aluminum. There is a buffer seat made of rubber between the spring seat and the first spring 12. The first spring 12 plays a key role in support and shock absorption. There is a disc spring 208 in the independent air tank. The disc spring 208 changes the compressed height to change the stroke of the air tank. There are multiple buffer pads 202 in the air tank to isolate the metal and prevent contact between them, preventing abnormal noise. Among them, the serial number buffer block plays a key role. When the air tank is compressed to the limit, it will compress the buffer block, and the buffer block will deform. The cylinder is also provided with an X-ring, a second guide strip 203 made of polytetrafluoroethylene, and a third guide strip 209. Both sides of the shock absorber are composed of a double-hanger structure and are connected to the vehicle through double rubber bushings 2.

[0027] The structural design of the double-spring structure and the external independent air tank of the present utility model deduces from the working principle that the double springs are used to relieve the impact, absorb and release energy, realizing the functions of ensuring kinetic energy recovery and improving the shock absorption efficiency.
