Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a lubrication structure for a press connecting rod. Background Technology
[0002] As an indispensable core piece of equipment in the mechanical manufacturing process, the diversified development trend of presses has become an irreversible mainstream trend in the current market. In production practice, we deeply understand that the stability and efficiency of press performance are crucial for the smooth operation of the entire production line. However, with the continuous increase in machine tool load, the lubrication capacity of traditional thick oil lubrication methods in the connecting rod area has gradually become significantly insufficient. This insufficient lubrication directly leads to frequent seizing problems in the connecting rod threads, making it impossible for the connecting rod to be effectively adjusted, which in turn causes machine tool failures and downtime, seriously affecting production efficiency and product quality. Therefore, how to improve the lubrication system of presses and enhance the lubrication effect of the connecting rod area has become a technical problem that needs to be solved. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a lubrication structure for a press connecting rod.
[0004] A press connecting rod lubrication structure includes a screw and a connecting rod. The screw includes a threaded section and a smooth section. The bottom end face of the connecting rod has a through hole. The upper section of the inner wall of the through hole has a threaded structure. The inner wall of the through hole near the orifice is a smooth arc surface with an annular groove. A sealing ring is provided in the arc groove. The connecting rod is threadedly connected to the screw. The inner side of the sealing ring is connected to the smooth section of the threaded rod. The threaded section of the screw is movably engaged with the threaded structure of the connecting rod through hole. The sealing ring is located below the threaded structure and the threaded section. Lubricating oil, which is a thin oil, is provided between the outer side wall of the screw and the inner side wall of the connecting rod through hole. An oil port is provided at the upper section of the connecting rod through hole.
[0005] Furthermore, the outer wall of the connecting rod is provided with an oil level indicator tube, which is a hollow transparent glass structure. The outer wall of the connecting rod through hole is provided with two connecting holes at different heights. The center line connecting the two connecting holes is parallel to the axis of the connecting rod through hole. The connecting holes are connected to the through hole of the connecting rod. The upper end and lower end of the oil level indicator tube are respectively fixed to the outer side of the connecting rod by bolts passing through the oil level indicator tube and the connecting hole. The outer side of the oil level indicator tube is provided with a scale.
[0006] Furthermore, in the lower section threaded structure of the bolt, the outer surface of the upper section is provided with a first oil passage, and the bottom surface of the bolt is provided with a second oil passage. The first oil passage and the second oil passage are connected. The internal space of the connecting rod through hole is connected to the inside of the oil level tube through the first oil passage and the second oil passage.
[0007] Furthermore, gaskets are provided between the bottom surface of the bolt head and the surface of the oil level gauge tube, and between the surface of the oil level gauge tube and the outer wall of the connecting rod.
[0008] Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages: This structure forms a relatively closed lubrication oil cavity through the threaded connection between the screw and the connecting rod, and the cooperation between the smooth section and the sealing ring. The thin oil used as lubricant can penetrate more effectively to the contact surface between the connecting rod and the screw, reducing friction and wear, while avoiding the problem of connecting rod thread seizure. Furthermore, the oil port design makes adding and replacing lubricant more convenient.
[0009] The oil level gauge, located on the outer wall of the connecting rod, is a hollow, transparent glass structure that clearly displays the lubricating oil level. The graduations on the outside of the gauge allow operators to accurately determine the remaining lubricating oil level, enabling timely replenishment and ensuring the continuous and stable operation of the lubrication system.
[0010] The threaded structure at the bottom of the bolt, the first oil passage at the top, and the second oil passage at the bottom of the bolt together form a flexible oil circuit system. This design connects the internal space of the connecting rod through-hole with the inside of the oil level gauge tube, which not only facilitates the circulation and renewal of lubricating oil but also improves the overall efficiency of the lubrication system.
[0011] The sealing ring installed in the annular groove, along with the gaskets between the bottom surface of the bolt head, the surface of the oil level gauge tube, and the outer wall of the connecting rod, together ensure the sealing performance of the lubrication system. This prevents lubricating oil leakage and the intrusion of external impurities, thereby extending the service life of the press. Attached Figure Description

Lubricating oil is provided between the outer side wall of the screw 2 and the inner side wall of the through hole of the connecting rod 1. The lubricating oil is a thin oil. An oil port is provided on the upper section of the through hole of the connecting rod 1.
[0018] In this embodiment, the outer wall of the connecting rod 1 is provided with an oil level tube 3. The oil level tube 3 is a hollow transparent glass structure. The outer wall of the through hole of the connecting rod 1 is provided with two connecting holes 8 at different heights. The center line connecting the two connecting holes 8 is parallel to the axis of the through hole of the connecting rod 1. The connecting holes 8 are connected to the through hole of the connecting rod 1. The upper end and the lower end of the oil level tube 3 are respectively fixed to the outside of the connecting rod 1 by bolts 5 passing through the oil level tube 3 and the connecting holes 8 in sequence.

Align the through hole at the bottom of the connecting rod with the threaded section of the screw, and rotate the connecting rod until the threads are tightly engaged. The sealing ring should be located below the threaded structure and threaded section to ensure a proper seal.
[0022] Align the oil level gauge with the connection hole on the outer wall of the connecting rod, and secure the oil level gauge to the connecting rod with bolts. Ensure that the threaded section of the bolt fits tightly with the connection hole, and use a gasket to increase the seal. At the same time, check that the scale on the oil level gauge is clearly visible.
[0023] Ensure that the first and second oil passages on the bolt are connected, and that the internal space of the connecting rod through-hole is connected to the inside of the oil level gauge tube through the first and second oil passages. This facilitates the circulation and renewal of the lubricating oil.
[0024] Add an appropriate amount of thin oil lubricant through the oil port on the upper part of the connecting rod through-hole. During the oiling process, please observe the scale on the oil level gauge to ensure that the lubricant reaches the appropriate level.
[0025] During use, the lubrication between the connecting rod and the screw, as well as the oil level on the oil level gauge, should be checked regularly. If insufficient or deteriorated lubricating oil is found, it should be replenished or replaced promptly.
