At present, in order to improve the ability to withstand impact forces during operation, shock absorbers are used. Common shock absorbers include buffer struts, and buffer struts are provided with buffer springs or buffer air cushions. Due to the relatively simple structure, they are prone to failure when facing a large instantaneous impact force and cannot play a good buffering role. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0020] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being “fixed on” or “disposed on” another element, it may be directly on the other element or indirectly on the other element. When an element is referred to as being “connected to” another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or indirectly connected to the other element.

[0022] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of the technical features being referred to. Thus, a feature specified as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features. In the description of this utility model, "plurality" means two or more, unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0023] See also Figure 1 The main buffer strut provided by the present invention is now described. The main buffer strut comprises an outer cylinder 1 and an inner cylinder 2, both of which are provided with an open end and a closed end, wherein a first connecting portion 101 is provided on the closed end of the outer cylinder 1, and a second connecting portion 201 is provided on the closed end of the inner cylinder 2. In application, the outer cylinder 1 and the inner cylinder 2 can be connected to a vehicle through the first connecting portion 101 and the second connecting portion 201. A first piston 3 is connected to the open end of the inner cylinder 2, and the first piston 3 is inserted into the inner cavity of the outer cylinder 1. The first piston 3 is slidably connected to the outer cylinder 1. A first oil chamber 11 is provided between the first piston 3 and the closed end of the outer cylinder 1. A second piston 4 is slidably connected in the inner cavity of the inner cylinder 2. A second oil chamber 21 is provided between the second piston 4 and the first piston 3, and an air charging chamber 22 is provided between the second piston 4 and the closed end of the inner cylinder 2. A damping hole 31 is also provided on the first piston 3 to connect the first oil chamber 11 and the second oil chamber 21.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the main buffer strut provided by the present invention, when in use, a certain amount of shock-absorbing oil is injected into the first oil chamber 11 and the second oil chamber 21, and nitrogen is filled into the inflation chamber 22. When subjected to a momentary impact of a large external force, the outer cylinder 1 and the inner cylinder 2 move relatively close to each other, causing the first piston 3 to move relative to the outer cylinder 1 toward the closed end of the outer cylinder 1, squeezing the first oil chamber 11, and causing the shock-absorbing oil in the first oil chamber 11 to flow into the second oil chamber 21 through the damping hole 31. By damping the shock-absorbing oil, a primary buffer is formed for the impact force, alleviating part of the impact force. After the shock-absorbing oil flows into the second oil chamber 21, the shock-absorbing oil pushes the second piston 4 to move relative to the inner cylinder 2 toward the closed end of the inner cylinder 2, squeezing the nitrogen in the inflation chamber 22. By compressing the nitrogen in the inflation chamber 22, a secondary buffer is formed for the impact force, thereby effectively reducing the impact force. The main buffer strut provided by the present invention can provide multi-level buffering for external impact force, thereby improving the buffering performance and enhancing the adaptability of the main buffer strut.

[0025] In some embodiments, see Figure 1An anti-slip component is provided at the open end of the outer tube 1 , and the anti-slip component is used to limit the movement range of the first piston 3 and prevent the first piston 3 from escaping from the inner cavity of the outer tube 1 . Specifically, the outer diameter of the first piston 3 is equivalent to the diameter of the inner cavity of the outer cylinder 1. In application, the axial side wall of the first piston 3 fits against the inner cavity side wall of the outer cylinder 1. In this embodiment, the outer diameter of the inner cylinder 2 is smaller than the diameter of the first piston 3. The anti-slip component is an end cover 5 arranged at the open end of the outer cylinder 1. The end cover 5 is movably connected to the outer cylinder 1. A communicating hole is passed through the middle of the end cover 5. The inner cylinder 2 is inserted into the inner cavity of the outer cylinder 1 after passing through the communicating hole. In this embodiment, the inner diameter of the communicating hole is smaller than the diameter of the first piston 3, thereby preventing the first piston 3 from escaping from the outer cylinder 1 through the communicating hole. Optionally, the inner diameter of the communicating hole is equivalent to the outer diameter of the inner cylinder 2. When in use, the outer wall of the inner cylinder 2 fits against the inner wall of the communicating hole. A sealing member 9 is provided between the inner cylinder 2 and the communicating hole. In this way, the communicating hole limits the radial freedom of the inner cylinder 2, making its axial movement more stable.

[0026] Further, see Figure 1 A vent hole 6 is provided on one side of the outer tube 1 near the end cap 5. The vent hole 6 connects the inner cavity of the outer tube 1 to the atmosphere. In use, a variable chamber is provided between the first piston 3 and the end cap 5. When the first piston 3 moves, the variable chamber is compressed. If the variable chamber is a sealed chamber, when it is compressed, the air inside cannot be discharged, thereby hindering the movement of the first piston 3. Therefore, the vent hole 6 is required to connect the variable chamber to the atmosphere, thereby preventing the movement of the first piston 3 from being hindered.

[0027] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 An oil filling hole 7 connected to the first oil chamber 11 is provided on one side of the closed end of the outer tube 1, and a first sealing plug 71 is movably connected to the oil filling hole 7. When shock-absorbing oil needs to be injected into the first chamber, the first sealing plug 71 is removed and then injected. After the injection of the shock-absorbing oil is completed, the first sealing plug 71 is installed on the oil filling hole 7 to prevent the shock-absorbing oil from flowing out.

[0028] Similarly, an inflation hole 8 is provided on one side of the closed end of the inner tube 2, communicating with the inflation chamber 22, and a second sealing plug 81 is movably connected to the inflation hole 8. In this embodiment, the second sealing plug 81 can be a one-way inflation valve, through which the air source inflates the inflation chamber 22.

[0029] In some embodiments, see Figure 1An adjusting plug rod 41 is provided on the end surface of the second piston 4 near the first piston 3. The adjusting plug rod 41 is inserted into the damping orifice 31. A flow gap is provided between the adjusting plug rod 41 and the damping orifice 31. In this embodiment, the cross-sectional area of ​​the adjusting plug rod 41 gradually decreases from one end of the second piston 4 to the other end, and the maximum diameter of the adjusting plug rod 41 is less than or equal to the aperture of the damping orifice 31. In use, when the second piston 4 moves relative to the inner cylinder 2, it can drive the adjusting plug rod 41 to move relative to the first piston 3, thereby changing the relative position of the adjusting plug rod 41 and the first piston 3, causing the size of the flow gap to change, and thus causing the damping effect generated when the shock absorber oil flows through the damping orifice 31 to change accordingly. In this embodiment, the closer the distance between the second piston 4 and the first piston 3 is, the smaller the flow gap is, and the stronger the damping effect is.

[0030] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 Seals 9 are provided between the first piston 3 and the outer cylinder 1 , between the second piston 4 and the inner cylinder 2 , and between the end cover 5 and the inner cylinder 2 . In this embodiment, the seals 9 are rubber sealing rings.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
