Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of air spring production equipment, and specifically relates to an air spring buffer block testing device. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, air suspension is being used more and more widely, with many existing vehicle chassis being upgraded and modified to use air springs. The load-bearing capacity of air springs can be adjusted by regulating the air pressure to meet different load requirements. At the same time, air springs are used in conjunction with shock absorbers, which provide a certain amount of damping to attenuate vibrations. However, during wheel bounce, in order to avoid structural collisions, a damping and limiting element is also needed, namely the aforementioned buffer block.
[0003] Buffer blocks are typically made of porous polyurethane material. In actual use, the air pressure inside the air spring changes constantly with the wheel's movement, and the buffer block is also subjected to high-frequency impacts. This makes the buffer block prone to detachment during use, affecting its service life and generating noise. Patent publication number CN218067006U discloses a buffer block testing device, but it cannot actively test the pull-out force of the buffer block. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an air spring buffer block testing device that can actively test the pull-out force of the buffer block.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an air spring buffer block testing device, which includes a mounting box, an air nozzle interface on the mounting box, a mounting seat for mounting the buffer block on the inner side of the top cover of the mounting box, and the testing device further includes a fixing rod passing through the mounting seat and fixedly connected to the top cover of the mounting box, a connecting rod passing through the bottom plate of the mounting box, and a quick connector for connecting the buffer block and the connecting rod. The quick connector may be a rope connecting the buffer block and the connecting rod.
[0006] In another embodiment, the mounting box includes an upper mounting plate, a lower mounting plate, a fixing screw connecting the upper mounting plate and the lower mounting plate, and a cylinder sealingly connected between the upper mounting plate and the lower mounting plate.
[0007] In another embodiment, the air nozzle interface is located on the upper mounting plate.
[0008] In another embodiment, the cylinder is made of a transparent material, such as tempered glass or polysulfone.
[0009] In another embodiment, an annular and downwardly protruding upper mounting ring is formed on the lower end face of the upper mounting plate, and an annular upper mounting groove is formed on the lower end face of the upper mounting plate inside the upper mounting ring, and the upper end of the cylinder is inserted into the upper mounting groove.
[0010] In another embodiment, the inner wall of the upper mounting ring is provided with a plurality of upper sealing grooves extending circumferentially thereon, and the mounting box further includes an upper sealing ring disposed in the upper sealing groove and located between the inner wall of the upper mounting ring and the outer circumferential surface of the cylinder.
[0011] In another embodiment, an annular and upwardly protruding lower mounting ring is formed on the upper end surface of the lower mounting plate, and an annular lower mounting groove is formed on the upper end surface of the lower mounting plate inside the lower mounting ring, and the lower end of the cylinder is inserted into the lower mounting groove.
[0012] In another embodiment, the inner wall of the lower mounting ring is provided with a plurality of lower sealing grooves extending circumferentially thereon, and the mounting box further includes a lower sealing ring disposed in the lower sealing groove and located between the inner wall of the lower mounting ring and the outer circumferential surface of the cylinder.
[0013] In another embodiment, a bottom sealing groove is provided on the mating surface of the lower mounting plate and the connecting rod, and a bottom sealing ring is provided in the bottom sealing groove and fitted on the connecting rod.
[0014] In another embodiment, a positioning groove with a wide belly and a narrow opening, matching the end of the buffer block, is provided on the lower end face of the mounting base. The buffer block is disposed in the positioning groove and sleeved on the fixing rod. A stepped mounting hole is provided on the top of the mounting base. The upper end of the fixing rod is stepped and matches the mounting hole. A threaded section is formed on its upper end face. The threaded section passes through the mounting hole and is threadedly connected to the upper mounting plate. Its upper end face presses against the top of the mounting base.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model can actively test the pull-out force of the buffer block through the connecting rod, and can also test the change of pull-out force of the buffer block under high pressure by inflating and deflating the inside of the testing device and observing the change of pull-out force of the buffer block in real time through the transparent cylinder, without having to open the installation box multiple times to observe whether the buffer block has shifted or fallen off.
