Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to automotive parts, and more specifically, to a support block for an automotive suspension system. Background Technology
[0002] The support block in a car's suspension system is a component that acts as a buffer in the car's suspension system.
[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN112109511A discloses an automotive shock-absorbing chassis suspension device. Its key technical features include: a wheel, a steering knuckle, a spring, a lower control arm, and a universal joint drive shaft. A steering knuckle is located at the right end of the wheel, and an upper control arm is mounted on top of the steering knuckle. The device further includes a stabilizing support mechanism, which is fixed to the right end of the shock absorber. This mechanism includes a sliding sleeve, a protrusion, a first swing rod, a positioning shaft, a second swing rod, a protruding rod, and a buffer mechanism. The sliding sleeve is slidably engaged with the upper end of the shock absorber, and the sliding sleeve is fixed integrally with the left end of the protrusion. One end of the first swing rod is rotatably engaged with the middle of the protrusion via the positioning shaft, and the other end of the first swing rod is rotatably connected to the upper end of the second swing rod. The end of the second swing rod away from the first swing rod is rotatably engaged with the right end of the protruding rod via a hinge shaft. One end of the buffer mechanism is rotatably engaged with the bottom of the first swing rod, and the other end of the buffer mechanism is movably nested inside the middle of the second swing rod.
[0004] The existing support block, namely the aforementioned buffer mechanism, generally includes an internal metal component and a buffer material bonded to the metal component. The buffer material covers the edge of the metal component, and the metal component works in conjunction with the suspension system. The buffer material provides a buffering effect for the suspension. However, the existing support block has insufficient structural durability, and the structure bonded to the buffer material is not firm. Under long-term use or harsh road conditions, it is prone to wear, cracking, or deformation, which in turn affects the overall performance of the suspension system.
[0005] Therefore, a new solution is needed to address this problem. Utility Model Content
[0006] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a support block for an automobile suspension system.
[0007] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a support block for an automobile suspension system, comprising a metal component and a buffer block, wherein the buffer block is provided with a mating groove for accommodating the edge of the metal component, the metal component is provided with a structural boss, and the buffer block is provided with a structural cavity that communicates with the mating groove and accommodates the structural boss.
[0008] The present invention is further configured such that the structural boss is perpendicular to the metal component.
[0009] The present invention is further configured such that the structural boss and the metal component are both arranged in a ring shape and are coaxially arranged.
[0010] The present invention is further configured such that the structural boss and the metal component are integrally formed.
[0011] The present invention is further configured such that: the connection between the structural boss and the metal component is provided with an arc transition portion.
[0012] The present invention is further configured such that: the inner edge of the structural boss is integrally formed with a plurality of reinforcing ribs arranged in a ring array, the reinforcing ribs and the metal component are integrally formed, and the buffer block is formed with a plurality of grooves for accommodating the reinforcing ribs.
[0013] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects: by designing structural protrusions on the metal components, it is not only cleverly integrated into the design, but also achieves perfect engagement with the buffer material. The structural protrusions ensure that the buffer block is firmly fixed and perfectly integrated with the metal components. It is not only firm and reliable under normal conditions, but also stable in performance under impact and not easy to loosen or fall off. This structure significantly improves the mechanical structural stability of the overall performance and ensures long-term and dynamic protective effectiveness. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Example
[0020] A support block in a car suspension system, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, it includes a metal component 1 and a buffer block 2. The buffer block 2 is provided with a connecting groove 3 to accommodate the edge of the metal component 1. The metal component 1 is made of aluminum alloy, which has the characteristics of high strength and good durability. A structural boss 4 is integrally formed on the metal component 1. The buffer block 2 is provided with a structural cavity 5 that communicates with the connecting groove 3 and accommodates the structural boss 4. The buffer block 2 is a polyurethane soft pad. The polyurethane soft pad has strong elasticity and can deform according to the force, thereby effectively absorbing and dispersing the impact force. This characteristic makes polyurethane cushions excellent in cushioning and shock absorption, protecting equipment and components from impacts and vibrations. The metal component 1 and the structural boss 4 are integrally molded, making the combination of the two strong, with high structural strength, better support, and greater durability. By designing the structural boss 4 on the metal component 1, it is not only cleverly integrated into the design, but also achieves a perfect engagement with the cushioning material. The structural boss 4 firmly fixes the buffer block 2 and perfectly integrates with the metal component 1. It is not only firm and reliable under normal conditions, but also stable in performance under impact, and not easy to loosen or fall off. This structure significantly improves the overall mechanical structural stability, ensuring long-term and dynamic protective performance.
[0021] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the structural boss 4 and the metal component 1 are both arranged in a ring and are coaxially arranged, so that the structural boss 4 is evenly distributed on the metal component 1, thereby making the entire support block evenly stressed and more durable. Furthermore, the structural boss 4 is arranged perpendicular to the metal component 1, which makes the structural boss 4 and the buffer block 2 more firmly connected.
[0022] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the connection between the structural boss 4 and the metal component 1 is provided with an arc transition part 6. When the support block is under force, the arc transition part 6 can reduce the stress concentration between the structural boss 4 and the metal component 1, thereby improving the structural strength and providing better support performance. The inner edge of the structural boss 4 is integrally formed with a number of reinforcing ribs 7 arranged in a ring array. The reinforcing ribs 7 and the metal component 1 are integrally formed. The buffer block 2 is formed with a number of grooves 8 to accommodate the reinforcing ribs 7. The reinforcing ribs 7 can further improve the connection strength between the structural boss 4 and the metal component 1. The grooves 8 play the role of accommodating the reinforcing ribs 7, and at the same time can also improve the bonding strength between the buffer block 2, the metal component 1, and the structural boss 4.
[0023] Through innovative, precise, and complex structural design processes, we have successfully and seamlessly integrated these two complementary materials to create a robust yet flexible overall structure. This structure maintains reliable stability under both impact-free and impact-affected conditions. The structural boss 4 firmly secures the cushioning material and perfectly integrates it with the metal component 1, ensuring not only robustness and reliability under normal conditions but also stability under impact, preventing loosening or detachment. This structure significantly enhances the overall mechanical structural stability, ensuring long-term and dynamic protective performance. This innovative structural combination not only greatly enhances the overall rigidity and durability of the structure but also endows it with exceptional resilience. Upon impact, the structure can quickly sense and react, dynamically adjusting its shape to effectively and efficiently disperse and absorb impact energy, thereby protecting its internal structure from damage. Compared to traditional support blocks, this structure's significant advantage lies in its superior cushioning performance, easily handling various complex and changing environments and driving intensities, whether it's smooth highway cruising or challenging mountain roads.

All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
