[0033] The following further describes in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0034] The connection structure between the pressure head and the oil cylinder of the present utility model, as Figures 1 - 3 shown, is the same as that disclosed in the connection structure between the oil cylinder and the pressure head with Chinese Patent Publication No. CN219139529U, and includes an oil cylinder 1. A piston rod is provided inside the oil cylinder 1, and the end of the piston rod is a protruding head 11. A pressure head 2 is installed on the protruding head; a connecting sleeve 3 is provided at the rear of the pressure head 2, and the pressure head 2 is fixed on the protruding head 11 through the connecting sleeve 3 in combination with a positioning nut 4 and a union nut 5.
[0035] A positioning hole 21 is provided in the middle of the pressure head 2, and the end of the protruding head 11 is inserted into the positioning hole 21, and the outer diameter of the protruding head 11 matches the outer diameter of the positioning hole 21, generally using an interference fit, so that the pressure head 2 can be reliably installed on the protruding head 11 through the positioning hole 21 without obvious gaps and no radial displacement will occur.
[0036] After the pressure head 2 is installed in place, the bottom 22 of the positioning hole 21 is in contact with the end 12 of the protruding head 11 to form a surface contact for transmitting the pressure of the oil cylinder 1.
[0037] A connecting sleeve 3 is provided at the rear of the indenter 2; the connecting sleeve 3 is preferably a separate ring, and then fixed to the rear of the indenter 2 by welding, thereby saving manufacturing costs; of course, it can also be as Figure 3 shown, the indenter 2 and the connecting sleeve 3 are integrally formed by machining from a whole piece of material. The end of the indenter 2 can be locally quenched to increase the surface hardness, so as to be more wear-resistant and durable.
[0038] The improvement of the connection structure between the indenter of the present utility model and the oil cylinder is that a positioning nut 4 is provided in the middle of the protruding head 11; as Figure 2 shown, specifically, on the inner side (above the illustration) of the positioning hole 21 of the protruding head 11 where the indenter 2 is installed, an external thread 13 is provided, which is matched with the internal thread 41 of the positioning nut 4, and the external thread 13 and the internal thread 41 form a threaded connection, preferably a fine thread, so that the positioning nut 4 can be installed on the protruding head 11, and the positioning nut 4 does not contact the indenter 2.
[0039] At the same time, a locking internal thread 31 is provided inside the connecting sleeve 3; the connection part between the connecting sleeve 3 and the indenter 2 forms a receiving cavity 32 for receiving the positioning nut 4, and no internal thread needs to be provided at this part.
[0040] Therefore, the union nut 5 is inserted into the connecting sleeve 3 from the upper part. The union nut 5 is provided with an external connection thread 51, and the external connection thread 51 is screwed into the locking internal thread 31, so as to install the union nut 5 on the connecting sleeve 3; further, the inner diameter of the bottom end of the union nut 5 is smaller than the outer diameter of the positioning nut 4. As the union nut 5 is screwed into the connecting sleeve 3, the bottom end of the union nut 5 abuts against the top end of the positioning nut 4, and an extrusion connection is formed between the union nut 5 and the positioning nut 4, which realizes axial positioning and locking and also realizes anti-loosening by extrusion.
[0041] A clamping part 52 is provided on the upper part of the union nut 5 for connecting with a tightening tool such as a wrench; a relief groove 53 can be provided between the clamping part 52 and the external connection thread 51.
[0042] The inner diameter of the union nut 5 is larger than the major diameter of the external thread 13 on the protruding head 11, so the union nut 5 can be sleeved from the end of the protruding head 11 and then pass over the external thread 13 part.
[0043] The minor diameter of the locking internal thread 31 of the connecting sleeve 3 is larger than the outer diameter of the positioning nut 4, so the connecting sleeve 3 can be sleeved from the end of the protruding head 11 and then partially pass over the positioning nut 4 to accommodate the positioning nut 4 in the receiving cavity 32.
[0044] When the connection structure between the indenter and the oil cylinder of the present utility model is in use, first, the union nut 5 is sleeved on the protruding head 11 of the piston rod of the oil cylinder 1, with the clamping portion 52 of the union nut 5 facing the cylinder block of the oil cylinder 1 and the connecting external thread 51 facing outwards; then, the positioning nut 4 is taken out and screwed onto the external thread 13 of the protruding head 11, and at this time, the union nut 5 is restricted on the piston rod between the positioning nut 4 and the cylinder block of the oil cylinder 1; to improve the connection reliability of the positioning nut 4, thread locking glue can be applied between the internal thread 41 of the positioning nut 4 and the external thread 13 of the protruding head 11 to lock the positioning nut 4 firmly on the protruding head 11; when it is necessary to disassemble the positioning nut 4 and replace the union nut 5, it can be disassembled after melting the thread locking glue by heating or other means; the union nut 5 and the positioning nut 4 are pre-installed on the protruding head 11 of the piston rod.
[0045] Then, the indenter 2 is installed, so that the protruding head 11 is inserted into the positioning hole 21, the bottom 22 of the positioning hole 21 contacts the end 12 of the protruding head 11, and the locking internal thread 31 of the connecting sleeve 3 passes over the positioning nut 4; then, the union nut 5 is screwed into the locking internal thread 31 of the connecting sleeve 3 until the end of the union nut 5 abuts against the union nut 3 to achieve locking.
[0046] When replacing the indenter 2, it is only necessary to loosen the union nut 5 and completely screw the union nut 5 out of the connecting sleeve 3, then the indenter 2 can be removed and a new indenter 2 can be replaced.
[0047] For the connection structure between the indenter and the oil cylinder of the present utility model, when the indenter 2 is subjected to eccentric load during operation, since the piston rod of the oil cylinder in this structure has good integrity and no grooves, the overall bending resistance limit is greater, providing better protection for the oil cylinder. Furthermore, the service life of the oil cylinder 1 is longer.
[0048] The preferred embodiments of the present utility model have been specifically described above, but the present utility model is not limited to the described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make various equivalent variations or substitutions without departing from the spirit of the present utility model, and these equivalent variations or substitutions are all included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
