Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of floor spring technology, specifically to a cold-extruded piston for floor springs that do not require drilling. Background Technology
[0002] In the manufacturing of floor spring pistons, the piston is a key component of the floor spring, and its performance directly affects the service life and operational stability of the floor spring.
[0003] A search revealed that Chinese patent publication number CN214578535U discloses a floor spring piston. Because this piston has a small body length and outer diameter, the size of the cam that mates with the body can be easily reduced, thus reducing the overall size of the floor spring and facilitating installation. However, the existing piston is difficult to manufacture, requiring high-precision equipment and complex operating procedures. This not only increases manufacturing costs but also limits production efficiency. Furthermore, due to limitations in the manufacturing process, the outer diameter of the machined piston often has gaps, leading to uneven friction between the piston's outer diameter and the cylinder bore. Over long-term operation, this uneven friction accelerates cylinder bore wear, thereby shortening the floor spring's lifespan.
[0004] To address these shortcomings of existing technologies, this solution provides a cold-extruded piston for floor springs that eliminates the need for drilling. By employing a cold-extruded molding structure, it not only solves the problems of high processing difficulty, low efficiency, and high cost, but also, through design improvements, eliminates gaps on the outer circumference of the piston, thereby achieving uniform friction with the cylinder bore, effectively reducing cylinder bore wear, extending product service life, and enhancing the product's market competitiveness. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a cold-extruded piston for floor springs that eliminates the need for drilling, thus solving the problem mentioned in the background art where existing pistons are difficult to process and often have gaps on the outer circumference after processing, which shortens the service life of the floor spring.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a cold-extruded piston for a hole-free floor spring, comprising a piston body, a rotating shaft, a piston groove, and a positioning groove. The positioning groove is provided inside one end of the piston body and is located within the piston body. The top end of the positioning groove penetrates the top of the piston body. A rotating shaft is provided inside the positioning groove, and the bottom end of the rotating shaft is embedded in the positioning groove. A needle roller bearing is provided outside the rotating shaft and is located inside the piston groove, which is located within one end of the piston body.
[0007] Preferably, one end of the piston groove is square, the internal cross-section of the piston groove is rectangular, and the inner wall surface of the square hole is smooth. The square hole penetrates one end of the piston body and extends to the middle of the piston body. By designing the piston groove as a rectangular structure with a smooth inner wall surface, not only is the processing simplified and manufacturing costs reduced, but structural stability is also improved, reducing the possibility of stress concentration and deformation. At the same time, this design makes the fit between the piston groove and the needle roller bearing tighter and the clearance control more precise, thereby optimizing the fit accuracy, reducing the coefficient of friction, reducing wear, and extending the service life of the piston. In addition, the rectangular cross-section design also enhances the piston's pressure resistance and overall structural integrity, further improving the product's durability and service life, ultimately achieving high efficiency, stability, and low wear during piston operation.
[0008] Preferably, there is a gap between the inner wall of the piston groove and the needle roller bearing, and the outer diameter of the needle roller bearing is smaller than the inner width of the piston groove, which provides appropriate movement space for the needle roller bearing. This effectively reduces the friction between the needle roller bearing and the inner wall of the piston groove during operation, reduces energy loss and heat generation, and thus extends the service life of the needle roller bearing and the piston. At the same time, the reasonable gap setting can also ensure that the needle roller bearing moves smoothly in the piston groove, improve the running accuracy and stability of the piston, avoid jamming or wear problems caused by excessive friction, and further enhance the overall performance and reliability of the piston.
[0009] Preferably, the other end of the piston body is provided with a circular groove, and the inner wall of the groove has a threaded structure. The groove at the other end of the piston body is used to connect the piston rod. By providing a circular groove with a threaded inner wall at the other end of the piston body to connect the piston rod, the reliability and stability of the connection are enhanced. At the same time, the assembly process is simplified, the assembly difficulty and cost are reduced, and the production efficiency is improved. The tightness of the threaded connection can also effectively improve the sealing performance, reduce the risk of hydraulic oil leakage, and thus extend the service life of the floor spring.
[0010] Preferably, an annular groove is provided on the outer wall of the other end of the piston body. The annular groove on the outer wall of the piston body is used to embed the sealing ring. By providing an annular groove on the outer wall of the other end of the piston body for embedding the sealing ring, the sealing performance is significantly improved. The annular groove provides a stable installation position for the sealing ring, ensuring that the sealing ring can tightly fit the gap between the piston body and the cylinder during operation, effectively preventing hydraulic oil leakage, thereby improving the sealing reliability and working stability of the floor spring.
[0011] Preferably, the top and bottom surfaces of the needle roller bearing are provided with shims, which are fitted onto the outside of the rotating shaft. The shims can effectively reduce the direct contact between the needle roller bearing and the rotating shaft, avoid wear caused by friction, and thus extend the service life of the needle roller bearing and the rotating shaft. Secondly, the shims can play a role in buffering and shock absorption, reducing vibration and noise during operation, and improving the smoothness and accuracy of piston operation.
[0012] This invention provides a cold-extruded piston for floor springs that eliminates the need for drilling. It offers the following advantages:
[0013] (1) No-notch outer circle design: The piston body in this solution achieves no-notch outer circle through structural design optimization; it avoids the problem of outer circle notch caused by process limitations in the traditional piston during processing; the no-notch outer circle design ensures that the piston has a larger contact area and a more uniform contact pressure distribution when it is in contact with the cylinder diameter, thereby significantly reducing the friction coefficient between the piston and the cylinder diameter; this uniform friction distribution helps to reduce cylinder diameter wear and extend the service life of the floor spring; in addition, the no-notch outer circle design also improves the structural integrity of the piston and enhances its pressure resistance.
[0014] (2) Rectangular cross-section design of piston groove: The internal cross-section of the piston groove is rectangular, and the inner wall surface of the square hole is smooth. This design not only simplifies the processing of the piston groove, making the piston easier to process, but also improves the stability of its internal structure. The rectangular cross-section design makes the fit between the piston groove and the needle roller bearing tighter and the clearance control more precise, thereby improving the running accuracy and stability of the piston and further improving the durability of the piston.
[0015] These structural improvements directly address the wear problems caused by the piston outer circle notch, the cost and efficiency problems caused by processing complexity, and the problem of insufficient sealing performance mentioned in the background technology, thereby improving the overall performance and market competitiveness of the product.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a cold-extruded piston for a floor spring without drilling, comprising a piston body 1, a rotating shaft 2, a piston groove 4, and a positioning groove 5. The positioning groove 5 is located inside one end of the piston body 1, with its top end penetrating the top of the piston body 1. A rotating shaft 2 is located inside the positioning groove 5, with its bottom end embedded within the positioning groove 5. A needle roller bearing 3 is located outside the rotating shaft 2, inside the piston groove 4. The piston groove 4 is located inside one end of the piston body 1. Through optimized structural design, a notch-free outer circle is achieved, avoiding the notch problem caused by process limitations in traditional piston manufacturing. The notch-free outer circle design ensures a larger contact area and more uniform contact pressure distribution when the piston mates with the cylinder bore, significantly reducing the friction coefficient between the piston and the cylinder bore. This uniform friction distribution helps reduce cylinder bore wear and extends the service life of the floor spring. Furthermore, the notch-free outer circle design improves the structural integrity of the piston and enhances its pressure resistance.

The outer diameter of the needle roller bearing 3 is smaller than the inner width of the piston groove 4. A circular groove is provided at the other end of the piston body 1, and the inner wall of the groove has a threaded structure.
