Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of guider, concretely relates to a single cylinder shock absorber split type guider structure. BACKGROUND

[0002] The single cylinder shock absorber guider is a vital component in the suspension system, and its core function is to guide the linear motion of the piston rod, support the lateral load and ensure the sealing of the hydraulic oil.

[0003] In the prior art, the single cylinder shock absorber usually uses an integrated guider, which integrates the guiding function and the sealing function in a single component, thereby realizing the compactness of the internal structure of the shock absorber and the improvement of the assembly efficiency.

[0004] However, the installation of the integrated guider seal is difficult, and the dust seal and the seal are folded (compressed by a special tool) and installed into the guide sleeve, which requires high precision of the installation tool and operation method, thereby reducing the installation rate, and the compression deformation process may cause the dust seal flange to break and the seal ring to break, forming a sealing failure hazard. INVENTION CONTENTS

[0007] The seal is connected in the first mounting groove through interference fit, the interference fit makes the inner and outer rings bear uniformly, and can avoid the seal from coming out of the first mounting groove during work, the diameter of the first mounting groove is greater than that of the mounting cylinder, so that the seal can be stored in the first mounting groove.

[0008] A limiting piece is arranged on one side of the seal, a third mounting groove is formed between the side surface of the mounting cylinder close to the seal and the side surface of the guide sleeve close to the seal, the limiting piece comprises a bearing seat arranged in the third mounting groove, the bearing seat is arranged to axially limit the seal, and the bearing seat is connected in the third mounting groove through interference fit, which can avoid the bearing seat from coming out of the third mounting groove during work.

[0009] The inner diameter of the third mounting groove is larger than that of the first mounting groove, so that the end surface of the bearing seat directly abuts against one side end surface of the sealing element, and under the working conditions of vibration, high pressure and the like, the sealing element is prevented from sliding to the piston rod direction due to axial force (such as hydraulic impact), thereby avoiding sealing failure.

[0010] The bearing seat is provided with a mounting cavity on the side away from the sealing element, the mounting cavity can be integrally formed with the bearing seat by turning during manufacturing, a bushing is arranged in the mounting cavity, and an inner hole of the bushing is coaxially arranged with the bearing seat, so as to ensure linear movement of the piston rod and reduce eccentric wear.

[0011] The bushing is preferably an SF1 bushing, which is usually composed of a metal base (such as a steel back) and a self-lubricating material (such as a polytetrafluoroethylene composite material), has excellent compressive strength and lateral load capacity, and is used to stably support the piston rod.

[0012] A second mounting groove is formed between the side surface of the mounting cylinder away from the sealing element and the side surface of the guide sleeve away from the sealing element, a dust seal is connected in the second mounting groove through interference fit, the interference fit makes the inner and outer rings bear force uniformly and can prevent the dust seal from coming out of the second mounting groove during work.

[0013] The limiting piece includes a limiting groove formed on the inner side wall of the second mounting groove, and a flat check ring is installed in the limiting groove, the flat check ring can be deformed by pinching, and after deformation, it can be installed into the limiting groove.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the above technical scheme of the utility model are as follows:

[0015] 1. Significantly improve the installation efficiency: the split structure disperses the sealing elements such as the sealing element and the dust seal in the independent groove body (the first and second mounting grooves), without the need for compression and folding operation, and without the need for relying on high-precision special tools, thereby reducing the installation difficulty, reducing the risk of damage to the sealing element due to improper installation, and greatly improving the assembly efficiency.

[0016] 2. Enhance the sealing reliability: the interference fit design makes the sealing element, the dust seal and the bearing seat stably embedded in the corresponding mounting groove, ensures that the contact pressure of the sealing element (the sealing element, the dust seal and the like) and the piston rod is uniform, avoids displacement of the sealing element and breakage of the slip ring due to vibration or hydraulic impact, and effectively resists the hydraulic impact force through the axial limitation of the bearing seat in the third mounting groove, thereby ensuring long-term stability of the sealing.

[0017] 3. Prolong the service life of the components: the combination design of the SF1 bushing and the bearing seat can efficiently bear the lateral load, ensure the linear movement of the piston rod, and reduce eccentric wear; the dust seal is axially limited by the flat check ring, prevents interface wear caused by sand and dust invasion, avoids the wear of the sealing element and the piston rod caused by impurity pollution, and significantly prolongs the overall service life of the guide.

[0018] 4. Reduce maintenance cost: when a component (such as dustproof seal or seal) is damaged, can be individually replaced without the need for overall replacement of the guide, reduce maintenance cost and downtime, improve the economy of after-sales maintenance. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
