[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a shock-absorbing structure for a wheelchair is disclosed, comprising a base plate 1 and a top plate 2. Multiple shock-absorbing components 3 are connected between the base plate 1 and the top plate 2. Each shock-absorbing component 3 includes a circular tube 31 fixedly connected to the base plate 1 and a slide rod 32 fixedly connected to the top plate 2. The bottom end of the slide rod 32 is located inside the circular tube 31 and is fixedly connected to a piston 33. The piston 33 is slidably connected to the circular tube 31. A spring 35 is provided between the lower surface of the piston 33 and the inner bottom wall of the circular tube 31. An internally threaded sleeve 36 with its opening facing downward is slidably connected to the surface of the slide rod 32. A through hole 361 is provided on the top wall of the internally threaded sleeve 36, and the through hole 361 is slidably connected to the surface of the slide rod 32. An external thread is provided on the outer side wall of the top end of the circular tube 31, and the internally threaded sleeve 36 is rotatably connected to the surface of the external thread. Mounting plates 38 are fixed to the bottom end of the circular tube 31 and the top end of the slide rod 32. Mounting components 4 for fixing the mounting plates 38 are fixed to the upper surface of the base plate 1 and the lower surface of the top plate 2.

[0024] The piston 33 has multiple annular grooves 331 on its outer side wall, and each annular groove 331 is fitted with a rubber ring 34, which fits against the inner side wall of the round tube 31.

[0025] The piston 33 can increase the friction of the slide rod 32 when it moves inside the round tube 31, thereby reducing the energy loss of the spring 35's rebound and achieving a better shock absorption effect.

[0026] The outer wall of the internal threaded sleeve 36 is provided with an external hexagonal sleeve 37.

[0027] When it is necessary to screw the internal threaded sleeve 36 onto or off the surface of the round tube 31, a wrench can be used to hold the external hexagonal sleeve 37 on the surface and rotate the external hexagonal sleeve 37 using the wrench.

[0028] The piston 33 is larger than the perforation 361.

[0029] To prevent the piston 33 from disengaging from the round tube 31 when it moves upward along the round tube 31.

[0030] Mounting assembly 4 includes an L-shaped plate 41, which is fixedly connected to the corresponding base plate 1 or top plate 2. A locking bolt 42 passes through the side of the L-shaped plate 41 away from the corresponding base plate 1 or top plate 2 and is connected by a threaded rotation. The mounting plate 38 is snapped into the inside of the L-shaped plate 41 on both sides.

[0031] When installing the round tube 31 or the slide bar 32, first, insert the mounting plate 38 into the L-shaped plate 41 of the corresponding mounting component 4. Then, rotate the locking bolt 42 to press the mounting plate 38, thus fixing the round tube 31 and the slide bar 32 in place. Therefore, each shock absorber component 3 can be disassembled individually, facilitating the replacement of individual shock absorber components 3.

[0032] Mounting plate 38 has a locking hole 381 near the locking bolt 42.

[0033] When mounting plate 38 is secured by mounting component 4, locking bolt 42 can be screwed into locking hole 381, thereby improving the installation stability of mounting plate 38.

[0034] The bottom plate 1 and the top plate 2 have several mounting holes 5 on their sides. This allows screws to be inserted into the mounting holes 5 and then used to fix the bottom plate 1 and the top plate 2 to the frame and the seat respectively.

[0035] Working principle: This shock-absorbing structure is installed between the wheelchair frame and the seat. When the patient sits on the seat and encounters bumps, the piston 33 bounces inside the round tube 31, which, together with the spring 35 for cushioning and the rubber ring 34 on the surface of the piston 33 for kinetic energy dissipation, achieves a shock-absorbing effect. Since the spring 35 and rubber ring 34 are consumable parts, when they need to be replaced, the shock-absorbing assembly 3 can be removed from between the base plate 1 and the top plate 2. The removal method is as follows: loosen the locking bolt 42 used to fix the mounting plate 38 so that the locking bolt 42 no longer presses against the mounting plate 38 and disengages from the locking hole 381, thus removing the shock-absorbing assembly 3 from between the base plate 1 and the top plate 2. Then, rotate the internal threaded sleeve 36 to open the top of the round tube 31, and then pull the piston 33 out of the round tube 31. At this point, the spring 35 can be replaced, and the rubber ring 34 can be removed and replaced from the surface of the piston 33.

[0036] The preferred embodiments of this utility model disclosed above are merely illustrative of the present utility model. These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the utility model to any specific implementation. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments to better explain the principles and practical applications of this utility model, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to better understand and utilize it. This utility model is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
