[0027] The positioning hole 3 is a waist hole, and the length direction of the waist hole is arranged along the radial direction of the sleeve 1.
[0028] The support member is a support plate, a support rod or a support arm 2.
[0029] The support member can be in the form of a support plate, a support rod or a support arm 2, and the position and shape of the support member can be determined according to the outer diameter and position of the end bolt 5 of the air spring 8, so that when the device for mounting and dismounting the air spring is placed, the positioning hole 3 passes through the corresponding bolt 5 at the end of the air spring 8.
[0030] As an implementable manner, as shown in Figure 1 the support member is a support arm 2, the support arm 2 corresponds to the positioning hole 3, the positioning hole 3 is arranged on the support arm 2, and the support arm 2 is distributed along the circumference of the sleeve 1.
[0031] The support member is arranged as a support arm 2, which reduces the manufacturing material of the support member, reduces the mass of the device for mounting and dismounting the air spring, facilitates carrying, and reduces the manufacturing cost.
[0032] As an implementable manner, as shown in Figure 1 the number of positioning holes 3 is three, and the three positioning holes 3 are arranged on the three support arms 2, respectively.
[0033] When mounting and dismounting the air spring, the three positioning holes 3 are respectively sleeved on the corresponding bolts 5 at the end of the air spring 8, the nuts 4 on the bolts 5 are tightened in sequence, the sleeve 1 applies better pressure to the washers 7, and the installation and dismounting space of the steel wire check ring 6 is facilitated.
[0034] As an implementable manner, two of the three support arms 2 are symmetrically arranged relative to the other support arm 2.
[0035] For example, the first support arm 2 and the second support arm 2 are symmetrically arranged relative to the third support arm 2, during the process of tightening the nuts 4, the sleeve 1 applies more uniform pressure to the washers 7, the sleeve 1 synchronously presses the washers 7, and the installation and dismounting space of the steel wire check ring 6 is facilitated.
[0036] Preferably, the included angle between the two symmetrically arranged support arms 2 is 100° or 110° or 120°.
[0037] For example, the included angle between the symmetrically arranged first support arm 2 and the second support arm 2 is 100° or 110° or 120°, the sleeve 1 applies uniform pressure to the washers 7, the sleeve 1 synchronously presses the washers 7, and the installation and dismounting space of the steel wire check ring 6 is more facilitated.
[0038] As an implementable manner, as shown in Figure 1 the included angle between the two symmetrically arranged support arms 2 is 120°.
[0039] The angle between the first support arm 2 and the second support arm 2 is 120°. The first support arm 2 and the second support arm 2 are symmetrically arranged relative to the third support arm 2. The angle between the first support arm 2 and the third support arm 2 is 120°. That is, the three support arms 2 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the sleeve 1. The angle between two adjacent support arms 2 is 120°. The sleeve 1 applies better and more even pressure to the washer 7. The sleeve 1 applies pressure to the washer 7 and presses it down synchronously and evenly, which further facilitates the installation and disassembly of the wire retaining ring 6.
[0040] The sleeve 1 and the support are structural components made of steel, aluminum alloy or PA66.
