[0028] Please refer to Figures 1-4, the present utility model provides a technical solution: a valve seat for an automotive shock absorber, including:

[0029] A valve seat body 100, which is used for inserting into the working cylinder 200 of the automotive shock absorber. A limiting ring 300 adapted to the bottom end of the working cylinder 200 of the automotive shock absorber is provided on the upper surface of the valve seat body 100;

[0030] A sealing assembly 400, which is used for sealing after the working cylinder 200 of the automotive shock absorber is inserted into the valve seat body 100. The sealing assembly 400 includes three rubber sealing rings 401 arranged at equal intervals between the inner ring surface of the working cylinder 200 of the automotive shock absorber and the outer ring surface of the valve seat body 100. The sealing assembly 400 further includes a first annular installation groove opened on the upper surface of the valve seat body 100, and an inflatable airbag ring 402 fixed on the inner bottom wall of the first annular installation groove. A pressing ring 4012 for pressing the inflatable airbag ring 402 is slidably arranged between the inner ring surface of the limiting ring 300 and the outer surface of the valve seat body 100, which is convenient for stably compressing the inflatable airbag ring 402.

[0031] A plurality of cylindrical grooves 4013 are arranged in a circumferential array on both the inner ring surface of the limiting ring 300 and the outer ring surface of the valve seat body 100. And a limiting ball 4014 is slidably arranged on the inner wall of the cylindrical groove 4013. Hemispherical limiting grooves adapted to the limiting balls 4014 are opened on both the inner ring surface and the outer ring surface of the pressing ring 4012. A spring piece 4015 is fixed on the inner wall of the cylindrical groove 4013, and the limiting ball 4014 is fixed on the surface of the spring piece 4015, which is convenient for the limiting ball 4014 to enter the semi-circular limiting groove to realize the positioning of the pressing ring 4012.

[0032] And an installation ring 403 is embedded in the inner ring surface of the limiting ring 300. A second annular installation groove is opened on the inner ring surface of the installation ring 403, and a sealing airbag ring 404 is fixed on the inner wall of the second annular installation groove. An annular sealing groove 405 adapted to the sealing airbag ring 404 is opened on the outer surface of the working cylinder 200 of the automotive shock absorber. A plurality of reset springs 4010 for facilitating the reset of the inflatable airbag ring 402 after compression are fixed on the inner bottom wall and the inner top wall of the inflatable airbag ring 402 in a circumferential array. A pressure relief pipe 4011 extending to the outer surface of the installation ring 403 is embedded in the inner wall of the sealing airbag ring 404, and a pressure relief valve is arranged at the end of the pressure relief pipe 4011, which is convenient for deflating the sealing airbag ring 404 when disassembling the working cylinder 200 of the automotive shock absorber.

[0033] An air charging and discharging pipe 406 extending to the inside of the sealing airbag ring 404 is embedded in the inner wall of the inflatable airbag ring 402.

[0034] The outer ring surface of the valve seat body 100 is equidistantly provided with a first annular groove 407 adapted to three rubber sealing rings 401, and the inner ring surface of the working cylinder 200 of the vehicle shock absorber is provided with a second annular groove 408 adapted to three rubber sealing rings 401. The rubber sealing rings 401 are fixed on the inner wall of the first annular groove 407 by glue.

[0035] A first annular expansion water stop belt 409 is fixedly arranged between every two adjacent rubber sealing rings 401, which can make the first annular expansion water stop belt 409 expand when leakage occurs.

[0036] The outer ring surface of the working cylinder 200 of the vehicle shock absorber is provided with an annular groove, and a second annular expansion water stop belt 4016 is fixedly arranged on the inner wall of the annular groove, which can make the second annular expansion water stop belt 4016 expand when leakage occurs.

[0037] Among them, for the valve seat used in the vehicle shock absorber, by setting the sealing assembly 400, when the valve seat is installed on the working cylinder 200 of the vehicle shock absorber, the sealed airbag ring 404 can be expanded into the annular sealing groove 405 to effectively squeeze and seal the outer ring surface of the working cylinder 200 of the vehicle shock absorber and the inner ring surface of the limit ring 300. At the same time, under the action of the three rubber sealing rings 401, effective sealing can be achieved between the inner ring surface of the working cylinder 200 of the vehicle shock absorber and the outer ring surface of the top end of the valve seat body 100. Furthermore, after the valve seat is installed on the working cylinder 200 of the vehicle shock absorber, multiple seals can be achieved simultaneously, effectively improving the sealing effect.

[0038] During operation, when installing the working cylinder 200 of the vehicle shock absorber, the valve seat can insert the working cylinder 200 of the vehicle shock absorber between the top of the valve seat body 100 and the limit ring 300, driving the extrusion ring 4012 to move downward. The downward movement of the extrusion ring 4012 squeezes the inflatable airbag ring 402, causing the air in the inflatable airbag ring 402 to enter the interior of the sealed airbag ring 404 through the air charging and discharging pipe 406, making it expand. When the annular sealing groove 405 on the surface of the working cylinder 200 of the vehicle shock absorber corresponds to the sealed airbag ring 404, at this time, the sealed airbag ring 404 can expand into the annular sealing groove 405, achieving effective extrusion sealing between the outer ring surface of the working cylinder 200 of the vehicle shock absorber and the inner ring surface of the limit ring 300. At the same time, effective sealing can be achieved between the inner ring surface of the working cylinder 200 of the vehicle shock absorber and the outer ring surface of the top of the valve seat body 100 under the action of the three rubber sealing rings 401. Moreover, the setting of the first annular expansion water stop belt 409 between the three rubber sealing rings 401 and the second annular expansion water stop belt 4016 on the outer ring surface of the working cylinder 200 of the vehicle shock absorber can make the first annular expansion water stop belt 409 or the second annular expansion water stop belt 4016 expand when there is leakage on the inner ring surface or the outer ring surface of the working cylinder 200 of the vehicle shock absorber, thereby further achieving the sealing effect. Furthermore, after being installed with the working cylinder 200 of the vehicle shock absorber, the valve seat can achieve multiple seals simultaneously, effectively improving the sealing effect.
