[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hydraulic cylinders, and in particular to a piston anti-loosening structure and a hydraulic cylinder. Background Technology

[0002] The piston and piston rod are the most basic components of a hydraulic cylinder. The hydraulic cylinder uses the reciprocating motion of the piston to achieve the pushing and pulling action of the piston rod. Therefore, loosening often occurs at the threaded connection between the piston and piston rod. Piston loosening not only affects work efficiency but can also lead to serious safety accidents. Therefore, to prevent connection failure between the piston and piston rod and ensure the smooth operation of the hydraulic cylinder, the piston's anti-loosening structure must be optimized. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a piston anti-loosening structure, which provides a stop between the piston and the piston rod to enhance the anti-loosening effect.

[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the following technical solution is adopted:

[0005] In a first aspect, this utility model provides a piston anti-loosening structure, including a stop member, which is used to prevent loosening of the connection between the piston rod and the piston;

[0006] The stop member includes an annular portion and a support rod portion. The support rod portion and the annular portion are integrally formed. The annular portion is disposed in the end face opening of the piston rod. A portion of the support rod portion is disposed in the internal opening of the piston rod, and a portion extends into the internal wall opening of the piston.

[0007] Optionally, the annular portion includes an open annulus.

[0008] Optionally, the support rod is a straight rod with a certain angle of inclination relative to the plane of the annular portion.

[0009] Optionally, the end face opening is a circular slot with a certain depth provided on the end face of the piston rod, and the center of the circular slot is on the center line of the piston rod.

[0026] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the present invention or its application or use.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] This embodiment provides a piston anti-loosening structure, including a stop 1. The stop 1 is partially disposed inside the piston 2 and partially disposed inside the piston rod 3, thereby preventing loosening of the connection between the piston 2 and the piston rod 3.

[0029] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the stop 1 is installed inside the end face of the piston rod 3. A part of the stop 1 extends into the interior of the piston 2. The stop 1 is connected to the piston rod 3 through a part of the stop 1, and the other part extends into the interior of the piston 2 to realize the relative rotation of the piston 2 and the piston rod 3.

[0030] like Figure 3 As shown, the stop 1 includes an arc-shaped annular portion 101 and a support rod portion 102 on the annular portion. The support rod portion 102 has a certain inclination angle relative to the plane of the annular portion 101, and the inclination support rod portion 102 extends into the piston 2 to ensure the stability of the connection.

[0031] An annular portion 101 is installed in the end face opening 301 of the piston rod 3. A support rod portion 102 extends through the inner wall opening 302 of the end face opening 301, passing through the piston rod 3 and reaching the inner wall opening 201 of the piston 2. One end of the support rod portion 102 is positioned within the inner wall opening 201 of the piston 2 to achieve an anti-loosening effect. When the piston 2 and piston rod 3 vibrate and the connection begins to loosen, the annular portion 101 within the piston rod 3 and the end of the support rod portion 102 within the piston 2 restrict the relative movement of the piston 2 and piston rod 3, thereby preventing loosening.

[0032] Example 2

[0033] like Figure 1-Figure 5As shown, this embodiment is based on the piston anti-loosening structure provided in Embodiment 1, with the difference being that: the end face opening 301 is a circular slot with a certain depth on the end face of the piston rod 3, and the center of the circular slot is on the central axis of the piston rod 3. An annular groove 303 is provided on the inner wall of the end face opening 301, and the annular groove 303 is close to the bottom of the end face opening 301. The annular groove 303 is used to place the annular portion 101 of the stop member 1. An opening is formed in the annular groove 303, extending through to the outer wall of the piston rod 3 to form an internal opening 302. The internal opening 302 is inclined away from the end face of the piston rod 3, and the inclination and size of the internal opening 302 are adapted to the inclination and size of the support rod portion 102.

[0034] The annular portion 101 on the stop 1 is a circular arc with an opening angle of less than 90 degrees, which is better for installing the stop. The diameter of the end face opening 301 is slightly smaller than the diameter of the annular portion 101. The annular portion 101 is placed in the annular groove 303 of the end face opening 301, and the movement of the annular portion 101 along the central axis of the piston rod 3 is restricted by the annular groove 303.

[0035] The support rod portion 102 on the stop member 1 is inclined at a certain angle relative to the annular portion 101. The support rod portion 102 is a straight rod and is set in the internal opening 302 of the piston rod 3. Its end extends into the inner wall opening 201 of the inner wall of the piston 2. The inclination angle of the inner wall opening 201 is the same as that of the internal opening 302 and the support rod portion 102.

[0036] The stop 1 can be made of spring steel or other high-strength materials. During installation, the included angle between the support rod 102 and the annular part 101 is slightly deformed, which does not affect the stopping effect. After installation, the annular part 101 is compressed in the annular groove 303.

[0037] In use, piston 2 and piston rod 3 are connected together. First, the support rod part 102 of the stop 1 is inserted into the interior of the end face opening 301. The support rod part 102 extends into the opening of the inner opening 302 of the inner wall of the end face opening 301. Then, the entire stop 1 is placed in the end face opening 301. When the annular part 101 of the stop 1 is located in the annular groove 303, the end of the support rod part 102 extends from the inner opening 302 to the outside of the piston rod 3 and continues to extend into the inner wall opening 201 of the piston 2, thus realizing the installation of the stop 1.

[0038] Example 3

[0039] This embodiment provides a hydraulic cylinder, including a piston 2 and a piston rod 3. A guide sleeve 4 is also provided at the end of the piston 2. One end of the piston rod 3 is threadedly connected to the piston 2, and thread-locking adhesive is applied at the connection. The piston rod 3 and the piston 2 are provided with the piston anti-loosening structure described in Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2.

[0040] Specifically, an end face opening 301 is provided at the end where the piston rod 3 connects to the piston 2. An annular groove 303 is provided in the end face opening 301. An internal opening 302 is provided on the inner wall of the end face opening 303, opening towards the outer wall of the piston rod 3. The support rod part 102 of the stop member 1 is installed from the inner wall of the end face opening 301 into the internal opening 302. The support rod part 102 extends out of the piston rod 3, and a part of the part extending out of the piston rod 3 extends into the inner wall opening 201 on the inner wall of the piston 2. The annular part 102 is restricted by the annular groove 303, and the support rod part 102 is restricted from moving by the inner wall opening 201 on the piston 2 and the internal opening 302 on the piston rod 3, thereby realizing the relative rotation of the piston 2 and the piston rod 3. The anti-loosening effect is enhanced by the thread anti-loosening adhesive and the piston anti-loosening structure.

[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
