[0029] The core of this utility model is to provide an external bellows to improve the convenience of daily inspection of rail transit oil pressure shock absorbers and to drain accumulated water at the same time;
[0030] Another core of the present invention is to provide a rail transit hydraulic shock absorber with the above-mentioned external bellows.
[0031] like Figure 1As shown, an embodiment of the present utility model discloses an external bellows, which is arranged in a rail transit hydraulic shock absorber 10. The external bellows includes an external bellows body 100. The external bellows body 100 is provided with a through center hole. The center hole is used to pass through the oil storage cylinder 11 of the rail transit hydraulic shock absorber 10 and the dust cover 12 axially movably connected to the oil storage cylinder 11. The external bellows body 100 includes a bellows portion 110, a first mounting pipe portion 120 and a second mounting pipe portion 130. Among them, the first mounting pipe portion 120 and the second mounting pipe portion 130 are respectively connected to the two ends of the bellows portion 110. When the external bellows body 100 is installed on the rail transit oil pressure shock absorber 10, the first mounting pipe portion 120 is sleeved on the outer wall of the oil storage cylinder 11, and the second mounting pipe portion 130 is sleeved on the outer wall of the dust cover 12. A breathing groove 140 is opened in the first mounting pipe portion 120, and the breathing groove 140 is connected to the inner cavity of the external bellows body 100, and the bottom of the breathing groove 140 extends to the bellows portion 110, and the notch of the breathing groove 140 passes through the first mounting pipe portion 120 away from the bellows portion One end of 110, and then the maintenance personnel can directly observe the rail transit oil pressure shock absorber 10 in the external bellows through the breathing groove 140 to complete the daily inspection and regular inspection of the rail transit oil pressure shock absorber 10, which greatly facilitates the inspection of the rail transit oil pressure shock absorber 10 and significantly improves the work efficiency of daily inspection and regular inspection. At the same time, the accumulated water that penetrates into the inner cavity of the external bellows can be discharged through the breathing groove 140, avoiding the problem of paint peeling and rusting inside the rail transit oil pressure shock absorber 10 caused by long-term water accumulation, and ensuring that the rail transit oil pressure shock absorber 10 has good working performance and service life.
[0032] In a specific embodiment, the second mounting pipe portion 130 is also provided with a breathing groove 140, and the bottom of the breathing groove 140 also extends toward the direction of the bellows portion 110. The notch of the breathing groove 140 is away from the bellows portion 110 and passes through the edge of the end of the second mounting pipe portion 130 away from the bellows portion 110. In this way, the breathing groove 140 is provided in the second mounting pipe portion 130 to increase the observation of the rail transit hydraulic shock absorber 10 in multiple directions, thereby improving the daily inspection and regular inspection of the rail transit hydraulic shock absorber 10 and more comprehensively detecting the rail transit hydraulic shock absorber 10.
[0033] Furthermore, a plurality of breathing grooves 140 can be provided, each of which is evenly spaced on the first mounting tube portion 120. Multiple breathing grooves 140 allow for direct observation and inspection of multiple locations of the rail transit hydraulic shock absorber 10. Furthermore, multiple breathing grooves 140 facilitate rapid drainage of accumulated water. Of course, the second mounting tube portion 130 can also include multiple breathing grooves 140, each spaced apart on the second mounting tube portion 130.
[0034] During the travel of the rail vehicle, taking into account the high wind resistance of the transversely installed oil pressure shock absorber, the outer wall of the bellows portion 110 is set to a smooth streamlined shape, so that the air fluid flows quickly on the streamlined surface, reducing the air resistance on the windward surface of the oil pressure shock absorber, thereby reducing the fluctuation of the external bellows body 100 caused by the airflow, and improving the stress condition of the external bellows body 100 during the reciprocating motion, greatly improving the service life of the external bellows. At the same time, the bellows portion 110 has elastic deformation along the axial extension direction of the external bellows body 100, so that the bellows portion 110 can be stretched or shortened to adapt to the stretching, extension or contraction and folding of the oil pressure shock absorber. In a specific embodiment, the bellows portion 110 is provided with a folded corrugated structure along the extension direction of the external bellows body 100 to achieve stretching or folding and contraction.
[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, the first mounting pipe portion 120 and the second mounting pipe portion 130 are both provided with a card slot 150. After the first mounting pipe portion 120 and the second mounting pipe portion 130 are respectively sleeved on the oil storage cylinder 11 and the dust cover 12, the throat clamp is installed into the card slot 150, and the first mounting pipe portion 120 and the second mounting pipe portion 130 are fixed to the oil storage cylinder 11 and the dust cover 12 through the throat clamp, ensuring that the first mounting pipe portion 120 and the oil storage cylinder 11, as well as the second mounting pipe portion 130 and the dust cover 12 have good connection stability.
[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, the inner diameter of the bellows portion 110 is larger than the inner diameter of the first mounting tube portion 120 and the inner diameter of the second mounting tube portion 130. During the relative movement of the dust cover 12 and the oil storage cylinder 11, the mutual interference and friction between the inner wall of the bellows portion 110 and the rail transit hydraulic shock absorber 10 are reduced, and the friction damage to the bellows portion 110 is reduced. At the same time, the bellows portion 110 and the first mounting tube portion 120, as well as the bellows portion 110 and the second mounting tube portion 130 are all smoothly transitioned, thereby improving the smoothness of the airflow flowing on the surface of the external bellows body 100, reducing air resistance, further improving the stress condition of the external bellows body 100, and increasing its service life.
[0037] The external bellows body 100 provided in this embodiment is an integrally injection-molded structure, which enhances overall structural strength, reduces the risk of damage to the external bellows body 100 during operation, and increases the service life of the external bellows body 100. Furthermore, the material of the external bellows body 100 can be EPDM rubber, which exhibits a self-lubricating effect. As the first mounting tube portion 120 of the external bellows body 100 slides on the oil reservoir 11, the self-lubricating EPDM rubber rapidly, continuously, and evenly maintains lubrication even as the base lubricant is continuously consumed. This ensures sustained low friction during dynamic operation, avoids dry friction, and prevents excessive friction between the external bellows body 100 and the oil reservoir 11, which could damage the oil reservoir 11 and damage the paint on the oil reservoir 11. Furthermore, the lubricant continuously released from the self-lubricating EPDM rubber enhances gas exchange at the free end. Moreover, the windward surface of EPDM rubber, which can continuously release lubricant, is relatively smooth. The smooth windward surface reduces the friction resistance caused by shear stress, further reduces air resistance, and can better resist the impact of wind and sand to reduce the breakage rate.
[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, the embodiment of the present invention further discloses a rail transit hydraulic shock absorber 10, comprising an oil reservoir 11, a dust cover 12, and the aforementioned external bellows. The dust cover 12 is movably sleeved on one end of the oil reservoir 11 along the axial direction of the oil reservoir 11. The first mounting tube portion 120 of the external bellows is sleeved on the outer wall of the oil reservoir 11, and the second mounting tube portion 130 is sleeved on the outer wall of the dust cover 12. Since the rail transit hydraulic shock absorber 10 includes the aforementioned external bellows, it has all the technical effects of the aforementioned external bellows, which will not be further described herein.
[0039] In the description of the above embodiments, specific features, structures, materials or characteristics may be combined in an appropriate manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.
[0040] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any modifications or substitutions that can be easily conceived by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be based on the scope of protection of the claims.
