[0002] There are mainly three types of air springs: bladder type, diaphragm type and sleeve type. The sleeve air spring is mainly applied to the elastic element (i.e., air spring or other springs) in the cab suspensions of sedans, medium trucks and heavy trucks, which plays a core role in the comfort of drivers.
[0003] The existing sleeve air springs mainly fix the leather bag on the parts by compressing the metal ring through a pipe press. If the leather bag or other parts are damaged, only the whole air spring can be replaced, resulting in high maintenance costs. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a modular sleeve air spring to replace the parts of the sleeve air spring and meet the personalized needs of customers. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a new modular sleeve air spring to solve the problem in the above background art that the existing sleeve air springs mainly fix the leather bag on the parts by compressing the metal ring through a pipe press.

An air inlet nozzle is provided at the outer end of the first plastic connecting rod 2, and a second conical surface is provided on the first boss, and a second anti-slip groove is provided on the second conical surface;
[0029] The first plastic buckle has a certain elasticity and can be deformed by a certain external force and return to its original state when the external force is withdrawn. The air inlet nozzle is used for inflating and deflating the product, the first boss is used to engage with the first plastic buckle, and the taper of the first conical surface and the second conical surface is equal;
[0030] First ports and second ports are respectively provided at both ends of the leather bag 3;
[0031] The leather bag 3 is respectively located inside the first counterbore and the second counterbore;
[0032] One end of the second outer shell 4 is provided with a second step and a second counterbore. The second counterbore is located inside the second step, and a third conical surface is provided on the second counterbore, and a third anti-slip groove is provided on the third conical surface;
[0033] The second outer shell 4 is used to support the second plastic connecting rod 5 and the other end of the airbag 3;
[0034] A second plastic buckle is provided at the inner end of the outer side of the second plastic connecting rod 5. One end of the second plastic connecting rod 5 is provided with a second boss, and a fourth conical surface is provided on the second boss. A fourth anti-slip groove is provided on the fourth conical surface;
[0035] The second plastic buckle has a certain elasticity and can be deformed by a certain external force and return to its original state when the external force is withdrawn. The second boss is used to engage with the second plastic buckle, and the taper of the third conical surface and the fourth conical surface is equal;
[0036] Working principle: The first plastic connecting rod 2 and the first outer shell are cooperated to press the first port of the airbag 3. The first plastic buckle of the second plastic connecting rod 2 is used in cooperation with the first step of the first outer shell 1 to fix the first plastic connecting rod 2, so that the first plastic connecting rod 2 continuously presses the airbag 3. The airbag 3 is deformed by the force, and part of the rubber on the surface of the airbag 3 will be squeezed into the first anti-slip groove and the second anti-slip groove, so as to increase the contact area on the surface of the airbag 3 and improve the surface friction between the airbag 3 and the first outer shell 1 and the first plastic connecting rod 2, so that the airbag 3 will not slip out. Then, the second plastic connecting rod 5 and the second outer shell 4 are cooperated to press the second port of the airbag 3. The second plastic buckle of the second plastic connecting rod 5 is used in cooperation with the second step of the second outer shell 4 to fix the second plastic connecting rod 5, so that the second plastic connecting rod 5 continuously presses the airbag 3. The airbag 3 is deformed by the force, and part of the rubber on the surface of the airbag 3 will be squeezed into the third anti-slip groove and the fourth anti-slip groove, so as to increase the contact area on the surface of the airbag 3 and improve the surface friction between the airbag 3 and the second outer shell 4 and the second plastic connecting rod 5, so that the airbag 3 will not slip out. When the first boss of the first plastic connecting rod 2 and the first counterbore of the first outer shell 1 press the airbag 3, when the first plastic buckle of the first plastic connecting rod 2 passes through the first step of the first outer shell, the first plastic buckle is stuck on the first step, so that the first plastic connecting rod 2 cannot rebound, and the first plastic connecting rod 2 can be kept in a state of pressing the airbag 3, and sufficient friction can be maintained so that the airbag 3 will not slip out under force, so as to achieve the effect of fixing the airbag 3. The principle of the second plastic connecting rod 4 and the second outer shell 5 when pressing the airbag 3 is the same. Both ports of the airbag 3 are pressed by the plastic connecting rod and the outer shell, and the rubber of the airbag 3 has elasticity, so it can play a sealing role. Sealing at both ends of the airbag 3 can form a closed air chamber, so it can form an air spring;
[0037] Applying an external force to the plastic buckle to deform the plastic buckle and disengage it from the step of the outer shell can separate the parts, enabling quick removal of the parts and replacement of the corresponding parts. Reassembly is to pull the plastic buckle to a preset position and lock it to the step of the outer shell to complete the assembly.

For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two components. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, for those skilled in the art, they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features.
