Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air suspension controller assembly equipment, specifically to a steel ball pressing device for valve body. Background Technology

[0002] Air suspension systems use air springs as elastic elements, utilizing the compressibility of gas to achieve their elastic effect. The compressed gas pressure can automatically adjust according to changes in load and road conditions. In this system, the controller is a crucial electrical component. The controller contains a valve body, and during valve body manufacturing, unavoidable extra holes are created. These extra holes need to be plugged with steel balls. Existing steel ball pressing equipment, such as the Chinese utility model patent with publication number CN220388556U, discloses an automatic steel ball riveting head, including: a drive assembly; a limiting assembly connected to the drive assembly; and a pressing head assembly connected to the limiting assembly. The drive assembly extends to drive the pressing head assembly to move vertically downwards to press the steel ball. The pressing head assembly is equipped with a spring. After pressing, the drive assembly retracts and then extends again to switch to riveting mode and drive the limiting assembly to limit the spring. The drive assembly continues to drive the pressing head assembly to move downwards to rivet the steel ball. In this steel ball pressing mechanism, when the pressure rod pushes the steel ball down, it needs to overcome the positioning bead. The positioning bead retracts and the steel ball falls. However, at this time, the steel ball is not yet placed stably, and the pressure rod can press down, which makes the effect and quality of steel ball pressing less than ideal. Utility Model Content

Figure 4 As shown, the upper end of the stabilizing seat has a long rod that moves within the movable seat. A spring is fitted on the long rod, connecting the stabilizing seat and the movable seat. The function of the stabilizing seat is to press and stabilize the valve body, facilitating the entry of the steel ball. A base 5 for placing the valve body is installed inside the main frame 1 and below the stabilizing seat 4. The base 5 has a fixed horizontal edge 25 for fixing the valve body. The valve body is placed on the base, close to the fixed horizontal edge, achieving stable placement. An auxiliary component 6 for stabilizing the valve body is installed on the front side of the base 5. The auxiliary component 6 includes a slidable straight rod 61 disposed within the base 5, as shown in the attached diagram. Figure 5 As shown, a vertical plate 62 is installed at one end of the straight rod 61, and an auxiliary clamping cylinder 63 is installed on the outside of the vertical plate 62. The extended end of the auxiliary clamping cylinder 63 is connected to the base 5. A movable clamping plate 64 is installed on the inner side of the vertical plate 62, and a fixed plate is installed on the inner side of the vertical plate. The fixed plate has a movable rod, and a spring is sleeved on the movable rod to realize the elastic movement of the clamping plate. After the valve body is placed on the base, the auxiliary clamping cylinder is activated, its extended end retracts, the vertical plate moves towards the valve body, and the clamping plate contacts the upper end of the valve body, clamping the valve body. The lower end of the movable seat 3 has a pressure rod 7, and the stable seat 4 has a pressure rod channel 8, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 2As shown, a feed seat 9 corresponding to the pressure bar channel 8 is installed inside the stabilizing seat 4, and a base seat 10 corresponding to the feed seat 9 is installed at the bottom of the stabilizing seat 4. When the pressure bar touches the steel ball, it will pass through the feed seat and the base seat. A feed control component 11 is installed on the stabilizing seat 4, and the movable end of the feed control component 11 cooperates with the feed port of the feed seat 9.

[0022] The pressing power assembly 2 includes a lift 21 mounted on the main frame 1, with the pressing end of the lift 21 connected to the movable seat 3. A smooth rod 22 is installed inside the main frame 1, a sliding sleeve 23 is fitted onto the smooth rod 22, and a movable plate 24 is mounted on the sliding sleeve 23. The movable seat 3 is mounted on the movable plate 24. The lift drives the movable seat to rise and fall; by fixing the movable seat to the movable plate, stable rising and falling of the movable seat can be achieved.

[0023] The feeding control assembly 11 includes a control cylinder 111 located on the rear side of the movable seat 3. A T-plate 112 is connected to the extended end of the control cylinder 111, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 3 As shown, a T-plate 112 is inserted into the stabilizing seat 4.

One end of the feed seat 9 has an opening / closing bar 115 that mates with the circular groove 113 and the straight groove 114. A feed pipe 118 is provided on the front side of the stabilizing seat 4. The outlet end of the feed pipe 118 mates with the circular groove 113, and the feed pipe is mounted on the stabilizing seat via a fixing seat. In the initial state, the locking bar is in the circular groove. When the stabilizing seat contacts the valve body, the locking bar moves upward. To avoid interference, the locking bar enters the straight groove. When the steel ball enters the feed seat, the control cylinder moves the T-plate upward, allowing the steel ball from the feed pipe to enter the feed seat through the feed inlet. The upper end of the T-plate 112 has symmetrically arranged through holes 116; the extended end of the control cylinder 111 is connected to a long rod 117 that is locked in the through hole 116. The T-plate and the extended end of the control cylinder are connected by a rod-body locking structure, which is simple in structure and easy to connect.

[0024] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The valve body is placed on the base, and the auxiliary components stabilize the valve body. Then, the pressing power component drives the movable seat and the stabilizing seat to move down. The stabilizing seat contacts the surface of the valve body, the feeding control component is activated, and the steel ball enters the feeding seat, passes through the chassis seat, and enters the hole in the valve body. The pressing power component continues to move down. Since the stabilizing seat and the movable seat are elastically connected, the pressure rod at the lower end of the movable seat moves in the pressure rod channel and then touches the steel ball, pressing the steel ball into the hole in the valve body. After the steel ball is fed, it is stably placed at the opening of the hole, and then pressed in by the pressure rod through the steel ball, realizing the stable pressing of the steel ball and improving the pressing quality of the steel ball.
