Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shock absorber technology, specifically to a motorcycle shock absorber with multiple shock absorption channels. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of modern transportation and leisure, motorcycles are loved by a wide range of users for their convenience, flexibility, and strong handling. They are widely used in urban commuting, outdoor adventure, and various motorsports. However, motorcycles inevitably face various road conditions during operation. The impact of different road conditions brings many challenges to the riding experience and the vehicle itself. At the same time, the ease of maintenance of shock absorbers has always been an important factor affecting the use of motorcycles. Traditional motorcycle shock absorbers have gradually revealed obvious limitations in these aspects.

[0003] Traditional motorcycle shock absorbers mostly use a relatively simple shock absorption structure, such as relying solely on simple springs or basic hydraulic systems to buffer road impacts. In actual riding, when facing complex and ever-changing road conditions, this simple shock absorption method is inadequate. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a motorcycle shock absorber with multiple shock absorption mechanisms, comprising: a mounting ring, the bottom of which is provided with a limiting seat; a buffer assembly, the top of which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting ring, the buffer assembly being used to absorb buffering force through deformation under stress; a hydraulic assembly, the top of which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the buffer assembly, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the top of the limiting seat, the hydraulic assembly being used to absorb impact force and reduce impact on the mounting ring through a spring; the hydraulic assembly includes a fixed cylinder, the inner wall of which is slidably connected with a sliding column, the inner wall of the bottom of which is fixedly connected with a double-headed sliding rod through a high-pressure pipe, the double-headed sliding rod including a cylinder and two sets of rods, and the outer wall of the high-pressure pipe being fixedly connected to the inner wall of the bottom of the fixed cylinder, and a top spring fixedly connected to the top of the limiting seat, the top spring being arranged in a ring array along the central axis of the limiting seat.

[0005] Preferably, the end of the high-pressure pipe away from the fixed cylinder is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the double-headed slide rod, the bottom of the double-headed slide rod is fixedly connected to the top of the limiting seat, the limiting seat restricts the position of the double-headed slide rod, and a telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the top of the limiting seat, and the telescopic rod is arranged in a ring along the central axis of the limiting seat.

[0006] Preferably, the buffer assembly includes a mounting base, the bottom of which is rotatably connected to a limiting shell, and a locking bolt is pressed and fixed to the inner wall of the limiting shell. The locking bolt passes through the limiting shell and tightens it. A top ring is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting base, and a resistance rod is fixedly connected to the top of the top ring.

[0007] Preferably, the inner wall of the top ring is slidably connected to a top column, the outer wall of the top column is fitted with a buffer pad, and the buffer pad is linearly arrayed along the central axis of the top column. The buffer pad is made of an elastic material. The bottom of the mounting base is fixedly connected to the top of the top spring, the bottom of the mounting base is fixedly connected to the top of the telescopic rod, and the bottom of the mounting base is fixedly connected to the top of the double-headed slide rod.

[0008] Preferably, the top of the top column is pressed and fixed to the inner wall of the bottom of the mounting base, the inner wall of the bottom of the mounting base is pressed and fixed to the top of the buffer pad, the outer wall of the locking bolt is pressed and fixed to the outer wall of the mounting base, and the mounting base and the limiting shell are fastened by the locking bolt and the nut, and the bottom of the top column is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding column.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0010] 1. This utility model, through the setting of a buffer component and a hydraulic component, forms a multi-stage shock absorption mechanism that can gradually and buffer the various impact forces from the road surface during motorcycle riding. The buffer component utilizes the elastic deformation of the buffer pad and the resistance of the resistance rod to the sliding of the top ring to initially reduce the impact force. Then, the hydraulic component, through the synergistic effect of the hydraulic oil flow resistance, the elastic potential energy change of the top spring, and the auxiliary support and guidance of the telescopic rod, absorbs and weakens the impact force again. This multi-line shock absorption method can better cope with road bumps of different intensities and frequencies. Whether it is the slight vibration encountered on a flat road or the strong impact under harsh road conditions such as rugged mountain roads, it can make the rider feel a relatively stable and comfortable riding experience and reduce the fatigue of long-term riding.

[0011] 2. By incorporating a buffer component, this utility model eliminates the need to remove the entire shock absorber from the motorcycle when replacing the hydraulic components. Simply rotate the locking bolt to release the restriction between the mounting base and the limiting shell, and then rotate the limiting shell to remove the hydraulic components. This unique design simplifies the maintenance and replacement process. Compared to the traditional method of removing the entire shock absorber and replacing key internal components, it saves a significant amount of time and effort, reduces maintenance difficulty, and facilitates operation for maintenance personnel. Especially when hydraulic component failure occurs during off-road riding, it allows for rapid replacement, reducing vehicle downtime due to maintenance and improving the motorcycle's operational efficiency.

[0019] Example:

[0020] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 5This utility model provides a technical solution: a motorcycle shock absorber with multiple shock absorption mechanisms, comprising: a mounting ring 1, with a limiting seat 4 at the bottom of the mounting ring 1; a buffer assembly 2, the top of which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting ring 1, the buffer assembly 2 being used to absorb buffering force through deformation under stress; a hydraulic assembly 3, the top of which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the buffer assembly 2, and the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the top of the limiting seat 4, the hydraulic assembly 3 being used to reduce the impact on the mounting ring 1 by absorbing impact force through a spring; the hydraulic assembly 3 includes a fixed cylinder 32, the fixed cylinder 32... A sliding column 31 is slidably connected to the inner wall. A double-headed sliding rod 35 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the bottom of the fixed cylinder 32 through a high-pressure pipe 36. The outer wall of the high-pressure pipe 36 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the bottom of the fixed cylinder 32. A top spring 34 is fixedly connected to the top of the limiting seat 4. The top spring 34 is arranged in a ring along the central axis of the limiting seat 4. When the sliding column 31 slides inside the fixed cylinder 32, the hydraulic oil inside the fixed cylinder 32 will flow through the high-pressure pipe 36 to the space where the double-headed sliding rod 35 is located. During this process, the flow of hydraulic oil will be subject to a certain resistance. This resistance can consume part of the impact force and play a shock absorption role.

[0021] The end of the high-pressure pipe 36 away from the fixed cylinder 32 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the double-headed slide rod 35. The bottom of the double-headed slide rod 35 is fixedly connected to the top of the limiting seat 4. The top of the limiting seat 4 is fixedly connected to the telescopic rod 33, and the telescopic rod 33 is arranged in a ring along the central axis of the limiting seat 4. The bottom of the double-headed slide rod 35 is fixedly connected to the top of the limiting seat 4. The hydraulic oil entering the double-headed slide rod 35 pushes the upper and lower sets of rods and presses the mounting seat 21 and the limiting seat 4, thereby reducing the movement distance between the mounting seat 21 and the limiting seat 4.

[0022] The buffer assembly 2 includes a mounting base 21. A limiting shell 22 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the mounting base 21. A locking bolt 23 is press-fitted and fixed to the inner wall of the limiting shell 22. A top ring 26 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting base 21. A resistance rod 27 is fixedly connected to the top of the top ring 26. A top post 25 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the top ring 26. A buffer pad 24 is sleeved on the outer wall of the top post 25, and the buffer pads 24 are linearly arranged along the central axis of the top post 25. The bottom of the mounting base 21 is fixedly connected to the top of the top spring 34. The bottom of the mounting base 21 is also fixedly connected to the top of the telescopic rod 33. The bottom of the mounting base 21 is connected to the double-headed... The top of the slide bar 35 is fixedly connected, the top of the top post 25 is pressed and fixed to the inner wall of the bottom of the mounting base 21, the inner wall of the bottom of the mounting base 21 is pressed and fixed to the top of the buffer pad 24, the outer wall of the locking bolt 23 is pressed and fixed to the outer wall of the mounting base 21, and the bottom of the top post 25 is fixedly connected to the top of the slide bar 31. When the motorcycle is subjected to an impact force from the road surface during driving, the impact force is first transmitted to the buffer assembly 2. The top post 25 will move up or down with the impact force. During the movement, the buffer pad 24 will deform due to compression and absorb part of the impact force by relying on its own elastic properties.

[0023] Working principle:

[0024] This multi-stage shock absorber for motorcycles mainly consists of a mounting ring 1, a buffer assembly 2, a hydraulic assembly 3, and a limiting seat 4. These components work together to provide multi-stage buffering and shock absorption to cope with the impact forces generated by different road conditions during the motorcycle's operation, ensuring a smooth and comfortable ride.

[0025] Mounting ring 1 and limiting seat 4 serve as the components connecting the entire shock absorber to the motorcycle frame, playing a fundamental role in fixed installation. They ensure that the shock absorber is securely installed in the corresponding position on the frame, providing a stable support for subsequent components to perform their shock absorption function.

[0026] The buffer assembly 2 is located below and fixedly connected to the mounting ring 1, and mainly undertakes the first shock absorption task. The mounting base 21 serves as the main structure of the buffer assembly 2, and has multiple related components working together inside. The top ring 26 can slide on the inner wall of the mounting base 21, and a resistance rod 27 is fixedly connected to its top. The inner wall of the top ring 26 is slidably connected to the top post 25. The outer wall of the top post 25 is fitted with a linear array of buffer pads 24. The tops of these buffer pads 24 are pressed and fixed to the inner wall of the bottom of the mounting base 21, and the bottoms are in contact with the top post 25. When the motorcycle is subjected to an impact force from the road surface during operation, the impact force is first transmitted to the buffer assembly 2, and the top post 25 will move upward or downward with the impact force. During movement, the buffer pad 24 deforms due to compression, absorbing some of the impact force through its elastic properties. At the same time, the resistance rod 27 also hinders the sliding of the top ring 26, further buffering the force transmission during this process. This allows the impact force to be initially reduced and buffered in this first shock absorption stage, preventing the impact force from being directly transmitted to subsequent components and causing a large impact. When it is necessary to replace the hydraulic component 3, simply turn the locking bolt 23 to release the restriction on the mounting base 21 and the limiting shell 22, then turn the limiting shell 22, and then the hydraulic component 3 can be removed from the mounting shell. This eliminates the need to remove the entire shock absorber from the motorcycle before replacing the hydraulic component 3.

[0027] Hydraulic component 3 is located below buffer component 2. Its top is fixedly connected to the bottom of buffer component 2, and its bottom is fixedly connected to the top of limit seat 4. It is mainly responsible for the second shock absorption. Fixed cylinder 32 is an important component of hydraulic component 3. Its inner wall is slidably connected to sliding column 31. The top of sliding column 31 is fixedly connected to the bottom of top column 25 in buffer component 2. When buffer component 2 is subjected to impact force, it will drive sliding column 31 to slide accordingly in fixed cylinder 32. The inner wall of the bottom of fixed cylinder 32 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of double-headed sliding rod 35 through high pressure pipe 36. The bottom of double-headed sliding rod 35 is fixed to the top of limit seat 4. The top of limit seat 4 is also fixedly arranged in a ring along its central axis with top spring 34 and telescopic rod 33. The top of top spring 34 and telescopic rod 33 are fixedly connected to the bottom of mounting base 21. When sliding column 31 slides in fixed cylinder 32, The hydraulic oil inside the fixed cylinder 32 will flow through the high-pressure pipe 36 to the space where the double-headed slide bar 35 is located. During this process, the flow of hydraulic oil will be subject to certain resistance, which can consume part of the impact force and play a shock absorption role. The hydraulic oil entering the double-headed slide bar 35 pushes the upper and lower rods and presses the mounting seat 21 and the limiting seat 4, thereby reducing the movement distance between the mounting seat 21 and the limiting seat 4. At the same time, the top spring 34 will be compressed or stretched according to the sliding of the slide bar 31, using its own elastic potential energy change to buffer the remaining impact force. The telescopic rod 33 plays an auxiliary support and guiding role, ensuring the stability of each component during relative movement and further improving the shock absorption effect. Through this series of synergistic effects, the impact force initially buffered by the buffer component 2 is effectively absorbed and weakened again by the hydraulic component 3.

[0028] The limiting seat 4 serves as a supporting and connecting component. On one hand, it is connected to the hydraulic assembly 3 through the top spring 34, telescopic rod 33, and double-headed slide rod 35. On the other hand, it is connected to the motorcycle. It stably fixes the entire shock absorber in the appropriate position and, in conjunction with other components, ensures that the impact force can be buffered and dispersed in an orderly manner during the shock absorption process. Ultimately, it reduces the impact on the mounting ring 1 and the motorcycle frame, allowing the rider to experience a relatively smooth and comfortable ride when the motorcycle is traveling on different road conditions. It avoids the impact force caused by road bumps and other factors from having a significant impact on the overall structure of the vehicle and the riding experience.

[0029] Throughout the motorcycle's journey, the shock absorber utilizes a multi-stage damping mechanism through the sequential operation of the buffer component 2 and the hydraulic component 3 to effectively buffer and absorb various impacts from the road surface. The components work closely together based on the aforementioned working principle to ensure the normal operation of the shock absorber and the stability of the motorcycle during riding.

[0030] Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art and related fields based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described and explained in this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, shall be implemented according to conventional means in the art.
