Detailed implementation manners

[0044] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0045] The present application provides a top rubber component. Please refer to Figure 1 andFigure 2 , Figure 1 and Figure 2 are the structural schematic diagrams of the top rubber component provided by the embodiments of the present application.

[0046] The top rubber component 10 is used for an air spring. The top rubber component 10 includes a top rubber inner ring 1 and a top rubber main body 2.

[0047] The top rubber inner ring 1 is provided with a connecting portion 15, and the connecting portion 15 extends along the circumferential direction of the top rubber inner ring 1.

[0048] The top rubber main body 2 surrounds the outside of the top rubber inner ring 1, and a plugging groove 21 is provided on the inner peripheral wall of the top rubber main body 2. At least a part of the connecting portion 15 is plugged into the plugging groove 21.

[0049] Wherein, one of the side walls of the plugging groove 21 and the side wall of the connecting portion 15 is provided with a convex portion 22, and the other is provided with a concave portion 151. The convex portion 22 extends into the concave portion 151 to limit the connecting portion 15 from disengaging from the plugging groove 21 along the radial direction of the top rubber inner ring 1. Specifically, as Figure 1 shown, the plugging groove 21 has upper and lower two side walls spaced along the axial direction of the top rubber main body 2, and the connecting portion 15 also has upper and lower two side walls spaced along the axial direction of the top rubber inner ring 1. The convex portion 22 can be provided on the side wall of the plugging groove 21, and at this time the concave portion 151 is provided on the side wall of the connecting portion 15; of course, the convex portion 22 can also be provided on the side wall of the connecting portion 15, and at this time the concave portion 151 is provided on the two side walls of the plugging groove 21. The convex portion 22 can extend into the concave portion 151 along the axial direction of the top rubber inner ring 1, or can extend into the concave portion 151 at an angle with respect to the axial direction of the top rubber inner ring 1. That is, when the connecting portion 15 is inserted into the plugging groove 21, the convex portion 22 will be embedded into the concave portion 151, so that the movement of the connecting portion 15 along the radial direction of the top rubber inner ring 1 can be effectively restricted, and the connecting portion 15 can be prevented from disengaging from the plugging groove 21, thereby ensuring the tight fit between the top rubber inner ring 1 and the top rubber main body 2.

[0050] In the technical solution of the present application, by providing the convex portion 22 on one of the side walls of the plugging groove 21 and the side wall of the connecting portion 15, and the concave portion 151 on the other side, the cooperation between the convex portion 22 and the concave portion 151 effectively restricts the connecting portion 15 from disengaging from the plugging groove 21 along the radial direction of the top rubber inner ring 1, enhances the connection stability between the top rubber inner ring 1 and the top rubber main body 2, enhances the connection firmness of the top rubber component 10 and the reliability of the overall structure, thereby improving the performance and safety of the air spring.

[0051] In some embodiments, the connecting portion 15 includes a main body portion 12 and a plugging portion 13 that is circumferentially connected to the outside of the main body portion 12. Along the radial direction of the inner ring 1 of the top rubber, at least one side of the two relatively arranged sides of the plugging portion 13 protrudes from the main body portion 12 to form a recess 151 at the main body portion 12; the plugging portion 13 and at least a part of the main body portion 12 are inserted into the plugging groove 21. Along the radial direction of the inner ring 1 of the top rubber, at least one side wall of the two relatively arranged side walls of the plugging groove 21 is correspondingly provided with a convex portion 22, and the convex portion 22 is used to limit the plugging portion 13 from disengaging from the plugging groove 21. Specifically, as Figure 2 shown, the plugging groove 21 has two upper and lower side walls spaced along the axial direction of the top rubber main body 2. The plugging portion 13 is inserted into the plugging groove 21. The plugging portion 13 also has upper and lower sides spaced apart. The upper side of the plugging portion 13 corresponds to the upper side wall of the plugging groove 21, and the lower side of the plugging portion 13 corresponds to the lower side wall of the plugging groove 21. At least one side wall of the two relatively arranged side walls of the plugging groove 21 being correspondingly provided with a convex portion 22 means that when the upper side of the plugging portion 13 protrudes from the main body portion 12, a convex portion 22 is provided on the upper side wall of the plugging groove 21. When the lower side of the plugging portion 13 protrudes from the main body portion 12, a convex portion 22 is provided on the lower side wall of the plugging groove 21. When both the upper side and the lower side of the plugging portion 13 protrude from the main body portion 12, convex portions 22 are provided on both the upper side wall and the lower side wall of the plugging groove 21. That is, the protruding setting of the plugging portion 13 and the convex portion 22 of the plugging groove 21 cooperate with each other, so that the convex portion 22 is used to limit the plugging portion 13 from disengaging from the plugging groove 21. In these embodiments, the main body portion 12 serves as the basic part of the connecting portion 15, providing the main support and connection functions. The plugging portion 13 is circumferentially connected to the outside of the main body portion 12, increasing the thickness and strength of the connecting portion 15, improving the overall stability. The plugging portion 13 and at least a part of the main body portion 12 are inserted into the plugging groove 21 together to form a multi-point fixed structure, enhancing the overall stability of the connection, enhancing the connection firmness of the top rubber assembly 10 and the reliability of the overall structure, thereby improving the performance and safety of the air spring.

[0052] It can be understood that, as Figure 2 shown, both sides of the plugging portion 13 that are relatively arranged protrude from the main body portion 12, and convex portions 22 are provided on both side walls of the plugging groove 21 that are relatively arranged. In this way, the connection between the inner ring 1 of the top rubber and the top rubber main body 2 is better reinforced. This symmetric design can distribute stress more evenly, effectively preventing the inner ring 1 of the top rubber from displacing or rotating in any direction, thereby significantly enhancing the overall stability and durability of the top rubber assembly 10. Even under extreme vibration or impact conditions, it can ensure that the top rubber assembly 10 of the air spring maintains a firm connection, improving the safety and service life of the equipment.

[0053] In some embodiments, the top rubber inner ring 1 also includes a sleeve portion 14, and the main body 12 is connected to the outside of the sleeve portion 14 in a surrounding manner. Along the radial direction of the top rubber inner ring 1, at least one of the two opposite sides of the sleeve portion 14 protrudes from the main body 12. In these embodiments, a thinner main body portion 12 and a thicker sleeve portion 14 are formed. It can be understood that the sleeve portion 14 is sleeved on the outside of the piston rod 200. The thicker sleeve portion 14 is provided, so that the matching length between the top rubber inner ring 1 and the piston rod 200 is increased, thereby significantly enhancing the connection stability between the top rubber inner ring 1 and the piston rod 200, and effectively preventing the loosening phenomenon that may occur during long-term operation or under a vibration environment. The thinner main body portion 12 is provided on the part of the top rubber inner ring 1 close to the top rubber main body 2, which can provide a larger deformation space. The thinner main body portion 12 allows the top rubber main body 2 to deform and swing more freely when subjected to pressure or vibration, avoiding the problem of limited deformation space caused by thickness limitation. In this way, it is ensured that the air spring can maintain good shock absorption performance and comfort under various working conditions, while extending the service life of the top rubber assembly 10 and improving the stability and safety of the overall equipment.

[0054] In some embodiments, the sleeve portion 14 surrounds the mounting hole 11, the mounting hole 11 is used to pass the piston rod 200, and the inner wall of the mounting hole 11 is provided with a first mounting groove 141, the first mounting groove 141 is used to install the first sealing ring 71 (see Figure 3 In these embodiments, by providing a first mounting groove 141 on the inner wall of the mounting hole 11, the first sealing ring 71 can be accurately installed in the first mounting groove 141, thereby ensuring the sealing performance between the piston rod 200 and the inner ring 1 of the top rubber, effectively preventing the leakage of gas inside the air spring, and preventing the entry of external impurities, thereby maintaining the normal working pressure and stability of the air spring. The provision of the first sealing ring 71 not only improves the sealing effect, but also extends the service life of the air spring, ensuring the safe operation and efficient performance of the equipment under various working conditions.

[0055] In some embodiments, a groove 23 is provided on at least one of the two opposing sides of the strut body 2 along the radial direction of the strut inner ring 1. In these embodiments, the groove 23 achieves spatial decoupling of stiffness and optimizes the stress distribution of the strut body 2 by changing the geometry and stress distribution of the strut body 2. This not only enhances the flexibility and load adaptability of the component, but also effectively disperses stress, improving overall durability and dynamic performance, while also enhancing energy absorption capacity and enhancing air spring performance.

[0056] It can be understood that grooves 23 are provided on both relatively arranged sides of the top rubber body 2, and the grooves 23 on both sides are symmetrically distributed. This not only strengthens the effect of stiffness decoupling, enabling the top rubber body 2 to evenly disperse stress in multiple directions and improving its dynamic balance; at the same time, the symmetrical structure also ensures that no matter from which angle the external force is applied, consistent performance can be maintained, greatly enhancing the stability and service life of the top rubber assembly 10.

[0057] In some embodiments, the top rubber assembly 10 has a first dimension in the radial direction of the inner top rubber ring 1, and the top rubber assembly 10 has a second dimension in the axial direction of the inner top rubber ring 1, and the first dimension is greater than the second dimension. In these embodiments, reducing the axial dimension while increasing the radial dimension aims to significantly improve the yaw angle ability of the piston rod 200. Specifically, the increase in the radial dimension means that the top rubber assembly 10 can cover a wider range, effectively disperse the lateral force, enhance the lateral stiffness and stability of the structure, so that the piston rod 200 can maintain good guiding performance and control accuracy even when there is a large lateral offset. And the reduction of the axial dimension is to reduce the axial constraint of the piston rod 200, give it more ample movement space, and thus achieve a larger yaw angle, enhance the adaptability and response speed of the air spring, and overall optimize the performance and dynamic stability of the air spring under complex working conditions.

[0058] In some embodiments, the first dimension is greater than or equal to 1.5 times the second dimension. In these embodiments, defining the first dimension (radial dimension) of the top rubber assembly 10 to be greater than or equal to 1.5 times the second dimension (axial dimension) not only significantly improves the yaw angle ability of the piston rod 200, but also optimizes the performance and dynamic stability of the air spring under complex working conditions, and overall improves the reliability of the system and the user experience. By carefully adjusting the size ratio of the top rubber assembly 10, the lateral stiffness and axial movement space are balanced to achieve the best comprehensive performance.

[0059] In some embodiments, the top rubber assembly 10 further includes an outer top rubber ring 3, and the outer top rubber ring 3 is connected to the outer peripheral edge of the top rubber body 2. In these embodiments, the outer top rubber ring 3 is connected around the top rubber body 2, which helps to further enhance the structural integrity and sealing performance of the top rubber assembly 10. The outer top rubber ring 3 can provide additional support to ensure that the top rubber body 2 will not deform or displace when subjected to external forces, thus maintaining the correct working position and shape of the air spring.

[0060] In some embodiments, the top rubber body 2, the inner top rubber ring 1 and the outer top rubber ring 3 are integrally formed. In these embodiments, integral forming simplifies the assembly process, reduces the production cost, and improves the overall quality and efficiency of the top rubber assembly 10.

[0061] The present application does not limit the materials of the top rubber body 2, the inner top rubber ring 1, and the outer top rubber ring 3. The material of the top rubber body 2 can be rubber, or high-performance engineering plastics with elasticity such as thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) and thermoplastic elastomer (TPE). The materials of the inner top rubber ring 1 and the outer top rubber ring 3 can be steel, or metals such as aluminum alloy. When the top rubber body 2 is made of rubber or other elastic polymer materials, it is usually integrally vulcanized with the inner top rubber ring 1 and the outer top rubber ring 3 made of metal to form a solid integrated structure. When the top rubber body 2 does not use rubber, such as using high-performance engineering plastics such as thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) and thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), the one-piece molding can be achieved by injection molding or reaction injection molding (RIM) technology.

[0062] According to the second aspect of the present application, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , a top seat assembly 100 is provided, including a top rubber assembly 10 and a seat body 20. The seat body 20 is provided with a through hole 4. The top rubber assembly 10 is disposed in the through hole 4 and is hermetically connected to the seat body 20. The structure of the top rubber assembly 10 is as described above. Since the top seat assembly 100 adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be elaborated here one by one.

[0063] It should be noted that the air spring further includes other structures, such as a base, a bladder, etc. The base, the bladder, and the seat body 20 of the top seat assembly 100 together enclose a closed chamber 300. The through hole 4 communicates with the chamber 300. The present application mainly focuses on the improvement of the top rubber assembly 10 and the top seat assembly 100, and other structures will not be elaborated.

[0064] In some embodiments, the inner wall of the through hole 4 is provided with a receiving groove 41. The outer peripheral edge of the top rubber assembly 10 is inserted into the receiving groove 41, and in the radial direction of the inner top rubber ring 1, both opposite sides of the top rubber body 2 abut against the side walls of the receiving groove 41. In these embodiments, the outer peripheral edge of the top rubber assembly 10 is inserted into the receiving groove 41. This plug-in installation method ensures the stability of the connection between the top rubber assembly 10 and the seat body 20. Both opposite sides of the top rubber assembly 10 can be in close contact with the side walls of the receiving groove 41. The top rubber assembly 10 is not only more firmly installed, but also achieves a tight seal with the seat body 20, greatly enhancing the stability and reliability of the operation of the top rubber assembly 10 and improving the performance and safety of the air spring.

[0065] In some embodiments, a second mounting groove 411 is provided at the bottom of the receiving groove 41. The top seat assembly 100 further includes a second sealing ring 72 mounted in the second mounting groove 411 to seal the top rubber assembly 10 and the seat body 20. In these embodiments, by providing the second mounting groove 411 at the bottom of the receiving groove 41 and installing the second sealing ring 72 therein, the structural design of the entire top seat assembly 100 is further optimized, not only improving the sealing effect, but also ensuring that the top rubber assembly 10 can work more reliably, thereby enhancing the performance of the air spring. Specifically, the second sealing ring 72 is made of a material with good elasticity and weather resistance, such as silicone rubber, fluororubber, etc., to ensure that its sealing performance can be maintained for a long time. The second sealing ring 72 is placed in the second mounting groove 411 to closely fit the top rubber assembly 10 and the seat body 20.

[0066] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 4 to 6 , the seat body 20 includes a seat body 5 and a cover plate 6 that are separately provided and fixedly connected; the through hole 4 includes a first through hole 51 and a second through hole 61 that are separately provided in the axial direction of the through hole 4. The first through hole 51 is provided in the seat body 5, and the second through hole 61 is provided in the cover plate 6; a first notch 511 is provided on one side of the seat body 5 facing the cover plate 6, and a second notch 611 is provided on one side of the cover plate 6 facing the seat body 5. The first notch 511 and the second notch 611 communicate to form the receiving groove 41. In these embodiments, the seat body 20 adopts a split design and is composed of two parts, the seat body 5 and the cover plate 6. These two parts are assembled together by a fixed connection method, which is not only convenient for production and assembly, but also ensures the integrity and stability of the structure.

[0067] In some embodiments, a first through hole 62 is provided on the cover plate 6, and a first insertion hole 52 is provided on the seat body 5. The first insertion hole 52 and the first through hole 62 are used to pass through a first fastener 81 to realize the fixed connection between the cover plate 6 and the seat body 5. In these embodiments, through the first fastener 81 (such as a bolt, a screw, etc.), passing through the first through hole 62 and screwing into the first insertion hole 52, a reliable connection between the cover plate 6 and the seat body 5 is realized. Since the detachable first fastener 81 connection method is adopted, the maintainability is considered while ensuring the structural strength.

[0068] In some embodiments, a second through hole 63 is provided on the cover plate 6, and a second insertion hole 53 is provided on the seat body 5. The second insertion hole 53 and the second through hole 63 are used to pass through a second fastener 82 to connect the cover plate 6 and the seat body 5 to the vehicle body. In these embodiments, by providing the second through hole 63 and the second insertion hole 53 on the cover plate 6 and the seat body 5 and connecting them to the vehicle body using the second fastener 82 (such as a bolt, a screw, etc.), the quick positioning and fixing of the top seat assembly 100 are realized.

[0069] According to a third aspect of the present application, an air spring is provided, which includes a top seat assembly 100 and a piston rod 200.
