Detailed Implementation

[0041] The following description, in conjunction with the embodiments of this utility model, includes appendices. Figure 1-5 The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are clearly and completely described herein. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 1-5 A car tie rod assembly with a fastening connection mechanism includes a tie rod 1, and balls 4 are provided at both the left and right ends of the tie rod 1.

[0043] Fastening mechanisms 2 are fitted on both the left and right ends of the horizontal tie rod 1, and mounting rings 3 are provided on the outer side of the fastening mechanisms 2;

[0044] By installing the fastening mechanism 2 on the tie rod 1 through the mounting ring 3, the fastening effect of the tie rod 1 and the ball 4 can be effectively achieved.

[0045] Reference Figure 2 The fastening mechanism 2 includes:

[0046] Spring 201 is located on both sides of the upper part of the inner wall of the fastening mechanism 2;

[0047] Protective plate 202 is disposed at the other end of spring 201;

[0048] The two protective plates 202 are arranged in a semi-circular arc. Each of the two protective plates 202 has a protective strip 209 on its inner side. The protective strip 209 has a cylindrical cross-section and can be made of rubber material.

[0049] The fastening mechanism 2 is fitted onto the outer surface of the ball 4. At the same time, the spring 201 drives the protective plate 202 to rebound to the outside of the ball 4. The semi-circular protective plate 209 can increase the fit between it and the ball 4. At this time, the protective strip 209 is in contact with the surface of the ball 4. The rubber material of the protective strip 209 can increase the friction between the two, thereby achieving the fastening effect on the ball 4.

[0050] Reference Figure 3 The fastening mechanism 2 also includes:

[0051] The buffer cylinder 203 is located inside the lower part of the fastening mechanism 2;

[0052] The buffer cylinder 203 is equipped with a second spring 206, the top of the second spring 206 is equipped with a fixing plate 207, the top of the fixing plate 207 is equipped with a connecting rod 208, and the other end of the connecting rod 208 is equipped with a support plate 204.

[0053] The tray 204 is set with a concave arc surface, and a protective pad 205 is provided on the concave surface of the tray 204. The protective pad 205 is a single cylinder and can be made of rubber material.

[0054] When the fastening mechanism 2 is fitted on the outside of the ball 4, the bottom of the ball 4 contacts the support plate 204. When the horizontal tie rod 1 drives the ball 4 to work, the spring 206 and the connecting rod 208 move inside the buffer cylinder 203, thereby driving the support plate 204 to move up and down, thus achieving a buffering effect on the ball 4. At the same time, the protective pad 205 contacts the bottom outer surface of the ball 4, which can further achieve a protective effect on the ball 4.

[0055] Reference Figure 5 There are two mounting rings 3, and the mounting rings 3 include:

[0056] Connecting plate 301, which is embedded between two mounting rings 3;

[0057] The limiting hole 302 is opened on the inner side of the connecting plate 301;

[0058] Limiting block 303 is disposed on the inner wall of the two mounting rings 3;

[0059] The limiting hole 302 is semi-circular, and the limiting block 303 is cylindrical. The limiting hole 302 and the limiting block 303 are adapted to each other.

[0060] By merging the two mounting rings 3, the horizontal tie rod 1 is tightened. At the same time, the connecting plate 301 slides inside the two mounting rings 3. When it slides to a specified diameter, the limiting block 303 is embedded inside the corresponding limiting hole 302, thereby achieving the tightening effect of the horizontal tie rod 1.

[0061] Reference Figure 5 The mounting ring 3 also includes:

[0062] Spring 304, which is provided in two, and is respectively disposed on the inner wall of the two mounting rings 3;

[0063] Clamping block 305 is located at the other end of spring three 304;

[0064] The protective strip 306 is disposed on the inner side of the clamping block 305;

[0065] The two clamping blocks 305 are concave arc surfaces and are arranged symmetrically along the axis. The protective strip 306 is a cylinder and can be made of rubber material.

[0066] When the two mounting rings 3 are joined together at the specified diameter, the spring 304 will cause the clamping block 305 to rebound to the surface of the tie rod 1 due to its own rebound force, thereby clamping the tie rod 1. The concave arc surface of the clamping block 305 can increase the fit between it and the tie rod 1. At the same time, the protective strip 306 contacts the surface of the tie rod 1, and the rubber material of the protective strip 306 can form friction with the surface of the tie rod 1, thereby achieving a further tightening effect on the tie rod 1.

[0067] The implementation principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the fastening mechanism 2 is installed at both ends of the horizontal tie rod 1 through the mounting ring 3 and sleeved on the outer wall of the ball 4. The protective plate 202 and the support plate 204 can achieve the fastening effect of the ball 4. At the same time, the clamping block 305 can achieve the fastening effect of the horizontal tie rod 1. The mounting ring 3 and the fastening mechanism 2 can achieve the fastening effect of both the ball 4 and the horizontal tie rod 1.
