Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of shock absorber technology, specifically relating to a multi-dustproof device for a track shock absorber. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, conventional track vibration dampers mainly rely on external metal dust covers for dust prevention, which are used to prevent foreign objects such as sand and dust from entering the damper during vehicle operation.
[0003] However, there is an annular gap between the metal dust cover of the shock absorber and the oil reservoir. During the operation of the rail vehicle, some fine sand, dust and other foreign objects will enter this gap through it, which may cause scratches on the piston rod. Gravel adhering to the oil seal lip will cause damage to the oil seal as the shock absorber moves, directly leading to oil leakage from the shock absorber. Utility Model Content
[0004] To solve the above problems, this utility model provides a multi-dustproof device for track shock absorbers, which has a simple structure and good dustproof effect.
[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0006] A multi-dustproof device for a track shock absorber, the shock absorber includes an oil reservoir, the two ends of which are respectively provided with a top cover and a bottom cover, a piston rod with one end passing through the top cover is provided inside the cylinder of the oil reservoir, a dust cover is provided on the outside of the oil reservoir near the top cover, and a dust sleeve is provided between the dust cover and the outside of the oil reservoir.
[0007] The dust cover is a telescopic cylindrical structure, which includes a dust cover body in the middle and a left connecting part and a right connecting part that are respectively located at both ends of the dust cover body and are in the shape of rings. The outer wall of the dust cover body is provided with telescopic pleats, and the inner diameters of the two connecting parts are different. The inner diameter of the left connecting part is larger and is used to fit on the outside of the dust cover, while the inner diameter of the right connecting part is smaller and fits against the outside of the oil reservoir.
[0008] Furthermore, a dustproof ring is installed between the piston rod and the top cover.
[0009] Furthermore, the dustproof ring is made of rubber.
[0010] Furthermore, the connecting parts at both ends of the dust cover are connected to the corresponding dust cover and the outer wall of the oil reservoir through a fixing mechanism.
[0011] Furthermore, the fixing mechanism is a stainless steel cable tie.
[0012] Furthermore, the dust cover is provided with several vent holes.
[0013] Furthermore, the dust cover is made of metal.
[0014] Furthermore, the dust cover is made of rubber.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0016] This utility model features a triple dustproof design: the first layer is a metal dust cover on the upper part of the shock absorber; the second layer is a retractable rubber dust cover added between the metal dust cover and the oil reservoir, secured at both ends with stainless steel strips; the third layer is a rubber dust ring added between the piston rod and the top cover. This triple dustproof structure serves the following functions:
[0017] (1) A retractable rubber dust cover is installed between the dust cover and the oil reservoir. This design is the second dust protection device, which can effectively block external sand and dust from entering the annular gap between the dust cover and the oil reservoir, effectively reduce the risk of oil leakage, and effectively improve the durability of the track vibration damper.
[0018] (2) The dust cover of this utility model is designed as a telescopic structure, which can move with the shock absorber during the stretching and compression process. It is suitable for the small amplitude movement of the track shock absorber. The connecting parts at both ends of the dust cover have different diameters. The end with the larger diameter is fitted outside the dust cover, and the end with the smaller diameter is connected to the oil reservoir. This facilitates connection with the metal dust cover and the outside of the oil reservoir. Both connecting parts are connected to the corresponding dust cover and the outer wall of the oil reservoir through a fixing mechanism.
[0019] (3) Add a rubber dustproof ring between the piston rod and the top cover. This design is the third dustproof device, which can effectively block dust from entering through the exhaust hole of the rubber dustproof cover, enhance the dustproof effect and effectively reduce the risk of oil leakage.

[0027] The second dustproof structure is a dustproof sleeve 3 fitted between the dust cover 1 and the outside of the oil storage cylinder 2. The dustproof sleeve 3 has several through holes and is made of rubber.
[0028] The dust cover 3 is a telescopic cylindrical structure that can move with the shock absorber during the stretching and compression process, making it suitable for the small amplitude movement characteristics of track shock absorbers. It includes a dust cover body 301 in the middle and a left connecting part 302 and a right connecting part 303 located at both ends of the dust cover body and forming annular shapes. The outer wall of the dust cover body 301 is provided with telescopic pleats, and the inner diameters of the two connecting parts are different. The inner diameter of the left connecting part 302 is larger and is fitted outside the dust cover, while the inner diameter of the right connecting part 303 is smaller and fits against the outside of the oil reservoir 2. The connection structure between the dust cover 3 and the dust cover can effectively prevent external sand and dust from entering the annular gap between the dust cover and the oil reservoir, effectively reducing the risk of oil leakage and effectively improving the durability of the track shock absorber.
[0029] Both ends of the dust cover 3 are connected to the corresponding dust cover and the outer wall of the oil storage cylinder through a fixing mechanism, which is a stainless steel cable tie 4.
[0030] Its assembly process is as follows:
[0031] Before assembling the shock absorber assembly, place the retractable rubber dust cover 3 on the outside of the cylinder.
