Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to an arc length gauge for an open bushing C-tube. Background Art

[0002] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 The guiding device of the automobile chassis suspension system is connected to the vehicle body through a rubber bushing. The rubber bushing has become an indispensable important component in the automobile due to its excellent vibration isolation performance, elastic characteristics and damping characteristics. Among them, the open rubber bushing has better durability than the ordinary bushing. Due to the single-opening design of the open bushing C-tube 3, it does not need to overcome the diameter reduction force of the outer tube, and there is no risk of deformation and degumming of the outer skeleton caused by excessive preload. Only a small amount of plastic deformation caused by interference fitting occurs, so a larger rubber compression amount can be designed to improve the durability and better comfort performance. The interference amount between the open bushing C-tube and the assembly hole depends on the arc length dimension of the outer sleeve.

[0003] The key dimensions of the C-tube 3: wall thickness T, outer diameter D, height H, arc length L after curling, opening angle θ, and opening width W. Among them, based on the outer diameter D, the arc length L and the opening size after curling are approximately in a functional relationship (see Figure 2 ).

[0004] The relationship between the opening angle and the opening width is as follows:

[0005]

[0006] That is

[0007] The relationship between the neutral arc length and the opening angle is as follows:

[0008]

[0009] Converted to the relationship between the neutral arc length and the opening width as follows:

[0010]

[0011] The arc length of the open bushing C-tube in the curled state cannot be quickly measured by a measuring tool, and it is not in a standard circular state after curling. It is necessary to correct the outer diameter to the reference by a gauge, and then use a go-no-go gauge block to quickly detect the opening state or use a caliper to measure the actual opening size. Therefore, it is necessary to design an arc length gauge suitable for the C-tube to quickly detect whether the opening size meets the requirements of the drawing and detect the actual opening size. Content of the Utility Model

[0012] The purpose of the present utility model is to overcome the defects of the prior art and provide an arc length gauge for an open bushing C-shaped tube, which can quickly detect whether the opening size meets the requirements of the drawing, detect the actual opening size, and then measure the arc length size after the C-shaped tube is rolled into a circle.
