DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0027] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, with examples illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following description, when referring to the drawings, identical numerals in different figures represent identical or similar elements, unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments are not intended to represent all possible embodiments consistent with the present invention. Rather, they are merely examples of devices or methods consistent with certain aspects of the present invention.
[0028] To make the purpose, technical solution, and advantages of the present invention more clear, the technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of them.

[0029] The following embodiments are described with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below do not limit the scope of the utility model as set forth in the claims. Furthermore, the entire contents of the configurations shown in the following embodiments are not necessarily required to serve as solutions to the utility model as set forth in the claims.
[0030] See also Figure 1-4 The present invention provides a spring seat blank, comprising a spring seat body 1, the spring seat body 1 comprising a base plate 11 and a shell 12 disposed on the base plate 11. An arched body 111 is provided on each side of the base plate 11. A runner body 2 is provided on the arched body 111, a riser body 3 is provided on the runner body 2, a gate body 4 is provided on the riser body 3, and the runner body 2, the riser body 3 and the gate body 4 are an integrated structure; the runner body 2 may include a connector 21 and may also include a transition body 22, the connector 21 being connected to the first side surface 1111 and the first bottom surface 1112 of the arched body 111. The upper surface of the connector 21 is lower than the upper surface of the arched body 111, and / or the joining length between the connector 21 and the first side surface 1111 of the arched body 111 is less than the arc length of the arched body 111.
[0031] The spring seat blank can be obtained through the coated sand casting process, which has low casting cost and high casting efficiency. After experiments, it can meet the casting requirements. After obtaining the spring seat blank, it is necessary to cut off the runner body 2, riser body 3 and gate body 4 to obtain the spring seat body 1. The spring seat body 1 can be used in the coupler buffer device. Figure 1 Because the upper surface of the connector 21 of the runner body 2 is lower than the upper surface of the bow 111, the side edge of the bow 111 is exposed. During cutting, the cutting can be performed along the side edge of the bow 111. Alternatively, the length of the connection between the connector 21 and the first side surface 1111 of the bow 111 is less than the length of the curved surface of the bow 111. In this way, a portion of the first side surface 1111 of the bow 111 is exposed, and the cutting can be performed along the first side surface 1111 of the bow 111. The portion where the connector 21 connects to the first bottom surface 1112 of the bow 111 can be cut or ground along the first bottom surface 1112. This facilitates the removal of the runner body 2, riser body 3, and gate body 4 to obtain the spring seat body 1. Furthermore, this structure provides a better shrinkage compensation effect for the spring seat blank.
[0032] Optionally, a rounded corner 1113 is provided at the bottom of the arched body 111 , and the upper surface of the connector 21 is flush with the upper edge of the rounded corner 1113 .
[0033] Optionally, the gate body 4 is in an inverted truncated cone shape, and the riser body 3 is in a spherical shape.
