[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 of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Depend on Figures 1 to 5 The present invention discloses a PU buffer with an elastic composite layer structure, comprising a PU buffer body 1, a support base 2, and a pneumatic auxiliary buffer assembly 3. The PU buffer body 1 is connected to the top of the support base 2, and the pneumatic auxiliary buffer assembly 3 is located inside the PU buffer body 1 and fixedly connected to the support base 2. The PU buffer body 1 is composed of a high-density PU base 4, a medium-density PU intermediate layer 5, a low-density PU buffer layer 6, a high-density PU sheath 7, and a top plate 8. The high-density PU base 4 is connected to the top of the support base 2, the medium-density PU intermediate layer 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the high-density PU base 4, the low-density PU buffer layer 6 and the high-density PU sheath 7 are both fixedly connected to the top of the medium-density PU intermediate layer 5, the high-density PU sheath 7 is fixedly connected to the arc-shaped outer surface of the low-density PU buffer layer 6, and the top plate 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the low-density PU buffer layer 6 and the high-density PU sheath 7.
[0024] The combined structure consisting of a high-density PU base 4, a medium-density PU intermediate layer 5, a low-density PU buffer layer 6, and a high-density PU sheath 7 can balance rigidity and flexibility, forming an optimized combination of rigidity and flexibility. This not only improves the buffering effect but also ensures overall stability. It can achieve graded buffering, with strong initial buffering effect that can absorb most of the impact, and weaker buffering effect in the later stages to form a damping effect, thereby improving the overall buffering effect of the PU buffer.
[0025] The contact surfaces of the high-density PU base 4, medium-density PU intermediate layer 5, low-density PU buffer layer 6, high-density PU sheath 7, and top plate 8 are all glued together, which can improve the stability of the connection.
[0026] The high-density PU base 4 has an inner mounting groove 9 in the middle position, the medium-density PU intermediate layer 5 has a central groove 10 in the middle position, and the low-density PU buffer layer 6 has a central groove 2 11 in the middle position. The low-density PU buffer layer 6 has a porous structure. The inner mounting groove 9 can be connected to the support base 2. The central groove 10, the central groove 2 11 and the inner mounting groove 9 can achieve air release during the compression and buffering process.
[0027] The arc-shaped outer surfaces of the high-density PU base 4, the medium-density PU intermediate layer 5, and the high-density PU sheath 7 are all provided with annular grooves 12. Several hemispherical rubber seats 13 are fixedly provided at the top of the top plate 8. The annular grooves 12 can enhance the surface friction damping, and the hemispherical rubber seats 13 can improve the anti-slip performance and also have a certain cushioning effect.
[0028] The support base 2 is composed of a stainless steel base plate 14 and a stainless steel clamp connector 15. The stainless steel clamp connector 15 is welded to the middle position of the top of the stainless steel base plate 14. Several vertical exhaust holes 16 are opened on the stainless steel clamp connector 15, and several horizontal exhaust holes 17 connected to the vertical exhaust holes 16 are opened on the stainless steel base plate 14.
[0029] The stainless steel clamp 15 can be installed with the mounting inner groove 9, and the vertical vent 16 and the horizontal vent 17 can be connected with the central groove 10, the central groove 2 11 and the mounting inner groove 9, so that venting can be achieved during the compression buffering process.
[0030] The pneumatic auxiliary buffer assembly 3 consists of a cylinder liner 18, a telescopic arm 19, a force plate 20, and a spring 21. The cylinder liner 18 is welded to the middle position of the top of the stainless steel clamp connector 15. The telescopic arm 19 slides through the cylinder liner 18. The force plate 20 is fixedly connected to the top of the telescopic arm 19. The spring 21 is connected between the force plate 20 and the high-density PU base 4. Several air holes 22 are opened at the bottom of the side of the cylinder liner 18.
[0031] At the end of the buffering process, the top plate 8 contacts the force plate 20 and drives the force plate 20 to press down. The force plate 20 drives the telescopic arm 19 to press down, and the air inside the cylinder liner 18 is compressed and buffered. At the same time, the exhaust is buffered through the air hole 22. The air compression process also has a damping effect. The spring 21 can have a buffering effect and can also drive the telescopic arm 19 and the force plate 20 to return to their original positions.
[0032] In operation, the PU buffer body, composed of a high-density PU base, a medium-density PU intermediate layer, a low-density PU buffer layer, a high-density PU sheath, and a top plate, combines polyurethane buffers of different densities to achieve an optimized balance between rigidity and flexibility. This improves the buffering effect while ensuring overall stability, preventing excessive rigidity from affecting the buffering effect and excessive flexibility from affecting the overall strength. The central grooves (center one, center groove two, and mounting inner groove) allow for air venting during buffering. The annular groove enhances the frictional damping of the outer surface, and the hemispherical rubber seat improves anti-slip performance while also providing buffering. A support base, consisting of a stainless steel base plate and stainless steel clips, allows for installation with the PU buffer body. Vertical and horizontal vents allow for the expulsion of air from inside the PU buffer body during buffering. A pneumatic auxiliary buffer assembly, consisting of a cylinder liner, telescopic arm, force plate, and springs, provides auxiliary buffering and damping, further enhancing the buffering effect.
