[0034] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0035] The utility model provides Figures 1-10 The invention shows an air bag with built-in upper limit anti-folding and anti-rollover function.

[0036] Example 1, as Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, it includes an airbag structure and a built-in upper limit mechanism, the airbag structure has a bag cavity inside, and a vent 3 connected to the bag cavity is provided on the top of the airbag structure; wherein, the airbag structure includes a bag skin 6, an upper cover plate 1, a base 13 and a piston 4, the piston 4 is connected to the bottom end position of the base 13, the upper cover plate 1 is located above the base 13, the bag skin 6 is wrapped between the upper cover plate 1 and the base 13, the inner space between the upper cover plate 1, the bag skin 6 and the base 13 forms a bag cavity, the vent 3 is opened at the top side position of the upper cover plate 1, the vent 3 is used for the circulation of gas in the bag cavity, the inner bottom of the bag skin 6 is wrapped around the outer periphery of the base 13, the inner top of the bag skin 6 is fixed to the outer wall of the upper cover plate 1, and the space between the three forms a bag cavity, and the built-in upper limit mechanism is installed in the bag cavity, which can avoid the problem of easy damage and increased failure rate when exposed to the external environment, and the vent 3 meets the gas circulation caused by the change of the volume inside the bag cavity, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the airbag structure;

[0037] Specifically, if Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 and Figure 10 As shown, the built-in upper limit mechanism is fixedly installed in the bag cavity of the airbag structure. The built-in upper limit mechanism is used to limit the length of the bag cavity. By limiting the length of the bag cavity of the airbag structure through the built-in upper limit mechanism, it can effectively avoid the risk of the bag skin 6 being separated from the base 13, the bag skin 6 being infinitely stretched, resulting in an excessively large bag cavity, the bag skin 6 being folded, and the vehicle being tilted, thereby effectively improving the use quality of the air suspension and improving the safety of vehicle driving; wherein, the built-in upper limit mechanism includes: a limit rope 9, an upper limit pull ring 8 and a limit column 14, the limit rope 9 is a folded ring with both ends in the same direction (such as Figure 3 and Figure 4The upper limit pull ring 8 is fixedly provided at the top position of the inner side of the airbag structure, and the upper limit pull ring 8 is located at the bottom end of the upper cover plate 1. Two upper bolts 2 are symmetrically provided at the top of the upper cover plate 1. The upper limit pull ring 8 is fixedly connected to the upper cover plate 1 by the upper bolts 2. The upper limit pull ring 8 and the upper cover plate 1 are connected and fixed by the upper bolts 2, so that the upper limit pull ring 8 and the upper cover plate 1 can be detachably fixed. While the upper limit pull ring 8 is firmly installed at the bottom end of the upper cover plate 1, the upper limit pull ring 8 can be detachably maintained, thereby increasing the convenience of subsequent maintenance work; one end of the limiting rope 9 passes through the upper limit pull ring 8 and extends downward, and the middle part of the upper limit pull ring 8 has a downwardly protruding folded ring, which can form a detachable ring with the upper cover plate 1. A through hole for the limiting rope 9 to pass through allows one end of the limiting rope 9 to pass between the upper limit pull ring 8 and the upper cover plate 1, so that the upper limit pull ring 8 can limit the limiting rope 9 while facilitating the installation of the limiting rope 9 on the upper limit pull ring 8; the limiting column 14 is fixedly arranged at the bottom position of the inner side of the airbag structure, and the two ends of the limiting rope 9 face the limiting column 14 and are clamped and fixed to the limiting column 14. The bottom of the limiting rope 9 is locked and fixed to the limiting column 14, limiting the bottom of the limiting rope 9, and cooperating with the upper limit pull ring 8 to limit and fix the top of the limiting rope 9, it can be combined into a built-in upper limit mechanism to limit the bag cavity of the airbag structure, prevent the bag skin 6 from detaching from the base 13, prevent the bag skin 6 from being infinitely stretched to cause the bag cavity to increase, and prevent the bag skin 6 from folding.

[0038] Furthermore, both ends of the limiting rope 9 are provided with a rope sleeve 17, the limiting rope 9 and the rope sleeve 17 are an integrally formed structure, and the limiting rope 9 is made of corrosion-resistant and tensile-resistant material, specifically, corrosion-resistant plastic or metal can be used. The upper end of the limiting column 14 is fixedly connected to a lower limiting hook 15 bent downward, and the rope sleeve 17 is movably sleeved on the outer wall of the lower limiting hook 15. The limiting rope 9 is made of corrosion-resistant and tensile-resistant material, which not only makes the overall strength of the limiting rope 9 higher, but also allows the rope sleeve 17 at the end of the limiting rope 9 to be slightly bent and deformed. This makes it convenient for the rope sleeves 17 at both ends of the limiting rope 9 to be sleeved on the two lower limiting hooks 15 at the top of the limiting column 14, thereby improving the convenience of assembly. In some embodiments, the rope sleeve 17 can be formed by bending the limiting rope 9 to form a hollow end, and the position between one end and the outer wall can be reinforced by welding. In other embodiments, the rope sleeve 17 can also be separately forged or welded to the end of the limiting rope 9.

[0039] Example 2, as Figure 3 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, based on Example 1, a built-in lower limiting mechanism is provided at the inner bottom of the airbag structure corresponding to the limiting post 14. The built-in lower limiting mechanism is used to limit the position of the limiting cable 9 on the limiting post 14. The built-in lower limiting mechanism can limit the position of the limiting post 14 and the limiting cable 9 of the cable sleeve 17;

[0040] It should be noted that the built-in lower limit mechanism includes a limit block 10, and a limit hook groove 12 that matches the shape of the lower limit hook 15 is provided at the bottom end of the limit block 10. A limit ring groove 11 is provided at the top end of the limit block 10. The limit ring groove 11 is used to make way for the upper limit pull ring 8, and the limit hook groove 12 is connected to the limit ring groove 11. The limit ring groove 11 and the limit hook groove 12 are respectively provided at the top and bottom ends of the limit block 10, which can meet the requirements of making way for the upper limit pull ring 8, while meeting the requirements of the rope sleeve 17 of the limit rope 9 passing through the limit block 10 and connecting with the lower limit hook 15, and at the same time, partially fitting with the lower limit hook 15 through the limit hook groove 12, so that the limit block 10 is stably installed on the outer wall of the limit column 14;

[0041] Furthermore, an assembly hole 7 is provided in the middle of the piston 4, an assembly bolt 18 is provided below the piston 4, and a threaded hole 16 matching the assembly bolt 18 is provided at the bottom end of the limiting column 14. The outer wall of the assembly bolt 18 passes through the assembly hole 7 and is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 16. After the assembly bolt 18 passes through the assembly hole 7 from the bottom end of the piston 4, it is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 16 on the limiting column 14, so that the installation and fixation of the limiting column 14 can be completed, and disassembly and assembly are convenient; in addition, a mounting hole 5 is provided on the piston 4, and the mounting holes 5 are multiple and arranged in an array shape. The setting of the mounting holes 5 can enable the piston 4 to be connected and assembled with the guide arm on the external air suspension, making the installation of the airbag structure on the air suspension more convenient and efficient.
