[0039] Implementation process: when hydraulic oil enters the inside of cylinder 1 from oil hole 15 on end cover 2 or gland 3, hydraulic oil exerts pressure on piston 5, pushes piston 5 to slide upwards on the inner wall of cylinder 1, since telescopic rod 4 is fixedly connected with piston 5, the movement of piston 5 drives telescopic rod 4 to synchronously extend upwards, in this process, multiple magnetic scales 7 arranged on the inner wall of telescopic rod 4 move together with telescopic rod 4, while magnetic sensor assembly 6 on one side of gland 3 is fixed, the relative position of magnetic scale 7 and magnetic sensor assembly 6 changes, magnetic sensor assembly 6 can sensitively perceive the magnetic field change of magnetic scale 7, according to its built-in detection principle and algorithm, converts magnetic field signal into electric signal and transmits to external control system, external control system processes these electric signals, accurately calculates the real-time stroke of telescopic rod 4, so as to realize accurate detection of the stroke of hydraulic cylinder, on the contrary, when hydraulic oil is discharged from the other oil hole 15, under the action of external load or other reset force, piston 5 drives telescopic rod 4 to retract, similarly, magnetic scale 7 and magnetic sensor assembly 6 continuously interact, real-time feedback stroke information.

The two arc-shaped extrusion plates 113 are matched with the sponge ring 9, the worm 114 is engaged with the worm wheel 115, and the driving wheel 116 is tautly connected with the driven wheel 117 through a belt.

[0043] Implementation process: Before or during the operation of the hydraulic cylinder, if it is necessary to lubricate and protect the telescopic rod 4, the operator can start the extrusion mechanism 11 by rotating the knob 118, the knob 118 drives the worm 114 to rotate, since the worm 114 is engaged with the worm wheel 115, the rotation of the worm 114 drives the worm wheel 115 to rotate, and the worm wheel 115 is coaxially connected with one of the two bidirectional screws 111, so that the bidirectional screw 111 rotates, and since the two bidirectional screws 111 are linked through the driving wheel 116, the driven wheel 117 and the belt, the other bidirectional screw 111 also rotates synchronously, when the bidirectional screw 111 rotates, the two driving blocks 112 which are threadedly fitted on the bidirectional screw 111 move towards or away from each other, the two driving blocks 112 drive the arc-shaped extrusion plates 113 to extrude the sponge ring 9, the sponge ring 9 has pre-stored lubricating liquid inside, under the extrusion action, the lubricating liquid seeps out through the multiple penetration holes 10 evenly arranged on the inner wall of the mounting shell 8, and is applied on the surface of the telescopic rod 4, thereby playing a lubricating role, reducing the friction between the telescopic rod 4 and the pressure cover 3, and also preventing dust, impurities and the like from adhering to the telescopic rod 4 to a certain extent, when the lubricating liquid in the sponge ring 9 needs to be replenished, the single-way valve 12 on the upper side of the mounting shell 8 can be used for adding lubricating liquid, the single-way valve 12 ensures that the lubricating liquid can only flow into the sponge ring 9 in one direction, preventing the lubricating liquid from flowing back during the operation of the hydraulic cylinder, and the sealing rings 13 on both sides of the mounting shell 8 are tightly attached to the telescopic rod 4, which not only prevents the lubricating liquid from leaking from the gap between the mounting shell 8 and the telescopic rod 4, but also further blocks the external dust and other pollutants from entering the inside of the mounting shell 8, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the lubricating and protecting system.

[0044] Implementation benefits: The self-lubricating and protecting system composed of the specially designed mounting shell 8, the extrusion mechanism 11 inside the mounting shell 8 and the sponge ring 9 enables the hydraulic cylinder to have self-lubricating and protecting capabilities. The operator can conveniently replenish the lubricating liquid for the telescopic rod 4 at any time, without the need to stop the machine and disassemble the complex lubricating device, thereby reducing the equipment maintenance time and cost.
