[0030] One end of the piston rod 2 is located outside the cylinder body 1, and the other end of the piston rod 2 passes through the sealing flange 13 and extends into the interior of the cylinder body 1. A bearing 14 is provided on the outer surface of the piston rod 2, and the bearing 14 is fixedly installed inside the sealing flange 13.

[0031] The outer surface of the piston rod 2 is fixedly sleeved with a piston ring 21, and the piston ring 21 is located inside the cylinder body 1. The piston ring 21 divides the interior of the cylinder body 1 into a left chamber 11 and a right chamber 12. The outer surface of the piston ring 21 is fixedly sleeved with two support rings 22, and a plurality of sealing rings 23 are provided between the two support rings 22. The axes of the cylinder body 1, piston rod 2, sealing flange 13, bearing 14, piston ring 21, support ring 22 and sealing ring 23 are located on the same straight line.

[0032] By installing the support ring 22 on the piston ring 21 and the bearing 14 on the sealing flange 13, the two ends of the piston rod 2 can be supported without affecting the normal movement of the piston rod 2, thereby ensuring the concentricity of the piston rod 2 and the cylinder body 1, avoiding the eccentricity that causes premature wear of the piston ring 21, support ring 22 and sealing ring 23, and ensuring the service life of the piston engine.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the inner side wall of the open end of the sealing flange 13 extends inward to form a first annular seat 131, the outer sleeve of the piston rod 2 is provided with a retaining spring 132, the interior of the sealing flange 13 is provided with a first mounting groove, the retaining spring 132 is installed in the first mounting groove, and the clamping limit of the bearing 14 is located between the retaining spring 132 and the first annular seat 131.

[0034] Specifically, the bearing 14 is clamped by the retaining spring 132 and the first annular seat 131 , so that the bearing 14 is fixed inside the sealing flange 13 , which facilitates installation and removal of the bearing 14 and the sealing flange 13 .

The piston ring 21 can be supported by the first limiting ring 24 and the second limiting ring 25, thereby improving the strength of the piston ring 21 and improving the sealing between the piston ring 21 and the piston rod 2.

[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, the bearing 14 is a linear bearing.

[0050] Specifically, the linear bearing can withstand a large axial load, thereby providing stable support for the piston rod 2 , ensuring that the piston rod 2 can maintain stable operation when subjected to a large pressure, and ensuring the concentricity of the piston rod 2 and the cylinder body 1 .
