Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a clamping mechanism for an automotive shock absorber, belonging to the field of automotive parts technology. Background Technology

[0002] Shock absorbers are key components of a car's suspension system, directly affecting the vehicle's stability and driving experience. When a vehicle travels on a bumpy road, the wheels bounce up and down due to the road's undulations. The shock absorber responds quickly by using the reciprocating motion of the piston within the working cylinder to allow oil to flow between different chambers. During this process, the valve system dampens the oil flow, converting the mechanical energy of the vehicle's vibrations into heat energy for dissipation. This effectively suppresses spring rebound, reduces the amplitude of vehicle body vibrations, and prevents excessive vehicle bumps.

[0003] Traditional shock absorber clamps have poor adaptability and are difficult to fit various specifications of shock absorbers. When dealing with shock absorbers of different sizes, it is often necessary to frequently change different specifications of clamps, which is time-consuming and laborious. Moreover, most clamps are only suitable for specific specifications of shock absorbers. When faced with diverse vehicle models and shock absorbers of different sizes produced by different manufacturers, it is often difficult to find a suitable installation point, making it difficult to adjust the installation position. This not only consumes a lot of time to find a suitable installation method, but also may affect the performance of the shock absorber due to improper installation position, thereby reducing the safety and comfort of vehicle driving, thus greatly reducing the practicality of the clamps.

[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to improve the clamping mechanism of automotive shock absorbers to solve the aforementioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a clamping mechanism for automotive shock absorbers. By rotating the threaded lifting rod, the threaded sleeve moves, causing two annular blocks to move closer or further apart, thereby adjusting the clamping position of the clamping mechanism on the shock absorber to adapt to the installation position of shock absorbers of different sizes. Then, by rotating the adjusting rod, the opening and closing degree between the two clamping rings can be adjusted to accommodate shock absorbers of different sizes. Finally, tightening the locking nut fixes the position of the adjusting rod, ensuring that the shock absorber is stably installed. This effectively prevents the shock absorber from shaking or shifting during vehicle operation, ensuring the normal operation of the vehicle's shock absorption system, improving vehicle driving safety and comfort, and thus greatly enhancing the practicality of the clamping mechanism.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the main technical solutions adopted by this utility model include:

[0007] A clamping mechanism for an automotive shock absorber includes two annular blocks. Several symmetrically distributed threaded sleeves are fixedly installed on each of the two annular blocks, and several evenly distributed threaded lifting rods are arranged between the two annular blocks. The two ends of the several threaded lifting rods are respectively threadedly connected to the several threaded sleeves, and a clamping mechanism is provided on the inner side of the annular blocks.

[0008] The clamping mechanism includes two symmetrically distributed clamping rings, both of which are located inside the annular block. An adjusting rod is rotatably connected to one side of each clamping ring. The end of the adjusting rod away from the clamping ring passes through the annular block and extends to the outside of the annular block. An adjusting knob is fixedly connected to the end of the adjusting rod located outside the annular block, and a locking nut is threaded onto the adjusting rod. Both ends of each clamping ring are fixedly connected to clamping ears, and two corresponding clamping ears are connected by several double-ended bolts. Both ends of each double-ended bolt are threaded with hexagonal nuts.

[0009] Preferably, a locking groove is provided on the outer side of the annular block, the locking nut corresponds to the locking groove, and the end face of the locking nut near the locking groove is provided with anti-slip texture.

[0010] Preferably, two symmetrically distributed positioning slide rods are fixedly installed on the annular block, and two corresponding clamping ears are slidably disposed on the positioning slide rods.

[0011] Preferably, an arc-shaped rubber pad is provided on the inner side of the clamping ring.

[0012] Preferably, the inner side of the clamping ring is provided with a groove, and a block is provided inside the groove. The block is fixedly installed on the outer side of the arc-shaped rubber pad.

[0013] Preferably, the interior of the groove is filled with adhesive.

[0014] Preferably, one end of the threaded lifting rod has a left-hand helical thread, and the other end of the threaded lifting rod has a right-hand helical thread.

[0015] This utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. This utility model uses the rotation of the threaded lifting rod to drive the threaded sleeve to move, thereby causing the two annular blocks to move closer or further apart. This adjusts the clamping position of the clamping mechanism on the shock absorber, making it suitable for the installation position of shock absorbers of different sizes. Then, by rotating the adjusting rod, the opening and closing degree between the two clamping rings can be adjusted to accommodate shock absorbers of different sizes. Finally, tightening the locking nut fixes the position of the adjusting rod, ensuring that the shock absorber is stably installed. This effectively prevents the shock absorber from shaking or shifting during vehicle operation, ensuring the normal operation of the vehicle's shock absorption system, improving vehicle driving safety and comfort, and thus greatly enhancing the practicality of the clamping mechanism.

[0024] The following will describe in detail the implementation of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that the implementation process of how this application uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve technical effects can be fully understood and implemented accordingly.

[0025] like Figures 1-5As shown, the automobile shock absorber clamping mechanism provided in this embodiment includes two annular blocks 1. Several symmetrically distributed threaded sleeves 2 are fixedly installed on both annular blocks 1, and several evenly distributed threaded lifting rods 3 are arranged between the two annular blocks 1. One end of the threaded lifting rod 3 is provided with a left-hand helical thread, and the other end of the threaded lifting rod 3 is provided with a right-hand helical thread. The two ends of the several threaded lifting rods 3 are respectively threadedly connected to the several threaded sleeves 2, and a clamping mechanism 4 is provided on the inner side of the annular blocks 1.

[0026] The clamping mechanism 4 includes two symmetrically distributed clamping rings 41, both of which are located inside the annular block 1. An adjusting rod 42 is rotatably connected to one side of each clamping ring 41. The end of the adjusting rod 42 away from the clamping ring 41 passes through the annular block 1 and extends to the outside of the annular block 1. An adjusting knob 43 is fixedly connected to the end of the adjusting rod 42 located outside the annular block 1, and a locking nut 44 is threaded onto the adjusting rod 42. Clamping ears 45 are fixedly connected to both ends of each clamping ring 41. Two corresponding clamping ears 45 are connected by several double-ended bolts 46, and hexagonal nuts 47 are threaded onto both ends of each double-ended bolt 46. When the two annular blocks 1 are placed on opposite sides of the corresponding positions of the shock absorber, rotating the threaded lifting rod 3 causes several threaded sleeves 2 to move, thereby driving the two... The ring blocks 1 are moved closer or further apart to adjust the clamping position of the clamping mechanism 4 on the shock absorber, making it suitable for the installation position of shock absorbers of different sizes. Then, the adjusting knob 43 on the clamping mechanism 4 is rotated to drive the adjusting rod 42 to rotate, adjusting the opening and closing degree between the two clamping rings 41 to adapt to shock absorbers of different sizes. Then, the locking nut 44 is tightened to fix the position of the adjusting rod 42. Finally, the two corresponding clamping ears 45 are connected by double-ended bolts 46 and tightened with hexagonal nuts 47 to further tighten the clamping of the clamping rings 41 on the shock absorber, ensuring that the shock absorber is installed stably, thereby effectively preventing it from shaking or shifting during vehicle operation, ensuring the normal operation of the vehicle's shock absorption system, improving vehicle driving safety and comfort, and thus greatly improving the practicality of the clamping mechanism 4.

[0027] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-5As shown, a locking groove 5 is provided on the outer side of the annular block 1, and a locking nut 44 corresponds to the locking groove 5. The end face of the locking nut 44 near the locking groove 5 is provided with anti-slip texture. Two symmetrically distributed positioning slide rods 6 are fixedly installed on the annular block 1, and two corresponding clamping ears 45 are slidably set on the positioning slide rods 6. When the locking nut 44 is tightened, the anti-slip texture increases the friction, so that the locking nut 44 is stably stuck in the locking groove 5, preventing the adjusting rod 42 from loosening and ensuring that the clamping ring 41 can clamp the shock absorber. The two positioning slide rods 6 on the annular block 1 not only provide sliding guidance for the movement of the clamping ears 45, ensuring that the clamping ring 41 moves smoothly when adjusting the opening and closing degree, but also prevent the clamping ring 41 from shifting or shaking during operation, thereby improving the stability and accuracy of the clamping mechanism 4 in clamping the shock absorber.

[0028] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, an arc-shaped rubber pad 7 is provided on the inner side of the clamping ring 41, and a groove 8 is provided on the inner side of the clamping ring 41. An insert 9 is provided inside the groove 8 and is fixedly installed on the outer side of the arc-shaped rubber pad 7. Adhesive 10 is filled inside the groove 8. The arc-shaped rubber pad 7 on the inner side of the clamping ring 41 can play a buffering and anti-slip role when the clamping ring 41 clamps the shock absorber, so as to avoid damage to the shock absorber. Through the coordinated work of the groove 8, the insert 9 and the adhesive 10, the arc-shaped rubber pad 7 can be firmly installed on the inner side of the clamping ring 41, preventing the arc-shaped rubber pad 7 from shifting during use, ensuring that it always effectively plays its protective and anti-slip functions, thereby improving the clamping effect of the clamping mechanism 4 on the shock absorber.

[0029] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the principle of the automotive shock absorber clamp mechanism provided in this embodiment is as follows:

[0030] In use, first place the two annular blocks 1 on both sides of the corresponding position of the shock absorber. Rotate the threaded lifting rod 3, and several threaded sleeves 2 move, thereby driving the two annular blocks 1 to move closer or further apart, thus adjusting the clamping position of the clamping mechanism 4 on the shock absorber. Then, rotate the adjusting knob 43 on the clamping mechanism 4 to drive the adjusting rod 42 to rotate, causing the two clamping rings 41 and the clamping ears 45 at both ends to slide on the two positioning slide rods 6 respectively, adjusting the opening and closing degree between the two clamping rings 41 so that they can clamp the shock absorber. Then, tighten the locking nut 44 so that the locking nut 44 is stably stuck in the locking groove 5 to prevent the adjusting rod 42 from loosening. Finally, connect the two corresponding clamping ears 45 with double-ended bolts 46 and tighten them with hexagonal nuts 47 to achieve stable clamping of the shock absorber.
