Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of swing hinge structure technology, specifically a highly lubricated swing hinge structure. Background Technology
[0002] The oscillating hinge structure is a common movable connection structure in mechanical systems. It mainly consists of a hinge shaft, a hinge seat, and related connecting parts. The relative oscillating motion between components is achieved by the rotation of the hinge shaft within the hinge seat. Its core feature is that it allows the two connected components to oscillate back and forth around the center of the hinge shaft within a certain angle range, while simultaneously transmitting force and torque, thus combining the flexibility of the connection with the stability of the structure.
[0003] In the field of construction machinery, such as crane boom systems, the swing hinge structure allows the boom to flexibly adjust its amplitude around the hinge point, adapting to different working heights and distances. In vehicle suspension systems, it coordinates the relative movement of the wheels and the chassis, mitigating road impacts. The design must comprehensively consider factors such as load-bearing capacity, swing angle range, wear resistance, and ease of installation and maintenance. The fitting accuracy of the hinge shaft and hinge seat, as well as the material selection, directly affect the service life and reliability of the structure. For example, using high-strength alloy steel to manufacture the hinge shaft and surface hardening to improve wear resistance ensures long-term stable operation of the structure under heavy loads.
[0004] With its simple and efficient motion transmission characteristics, the swing hinge structure has become a key component for realizing dynamic connections between mechanical components. It is widely used in aerospace, automotive, construction machinery and other fields, providing basic support for the motion realization of complex mechanical systems.
[0005] In existing swing hinge structures, the bushing and the shaft are usually designed with direct frictional contact, which makes the shaft prone to frictional wear during long-term reciprocating motion, affecting the service life of the components. Secondly, the assembly gap between the bushing and the shaft will form an open channel, allowing external dust, particles and other impurities to easily enter the friction pair, which will not only aggravate wear, but may also cause problems such as motion jamming. Therefore, a new technical solution needs to be designed to solve this problem. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[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. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Example 1: Please refer to again Figure 1-4This utility model provides a highly lubricated swing hinge structure, including a bushing 100. Both ends of the bushing 100 have mating grooves 110, and a first sealing ring 111 is provided on the inner side of each mating groove 110. Both ends of the bushing 100 are connected to a conical ring 120, and two sealing rings 121 are provided on one side of each conical ring 120. An installation groove 130 is provided inside the bushing 100, and the inner cavity of the installation groove 130 is filled with an oil-absorbing pad 140. The bushing 100 has an oil guide groove 150 inside, and a through hole 151 is opened on the inner side of the oil guide groove 150. The through holes 151 are evenly distributed and are connected to the mounting groove 130. An oil injection pipe 160 is provided on the outer side of the bushing 100 and is connected to the oil guide groove 150. A rotating roller 170 is provided on the inner side of the bushing 100 and is evenly distributed. The outer side of the rotating roller 170 is in contact with the two rotating shafts 200.
[0024] Specifically, lubricating oil is injected into the oil injection pipe 160, allowing it to enter the oil guide groove 150. The lubricating oil then flows within the oil guide groove 150 and is guided through the through hole 151 to the mounting groove 130. The oil-absorbing pad 140 absorbs the lubricating oil, and the rotating roller 170, which is in contact with the oil-absorbing pad 140, adheres the lubricating oil from the oil-absorbing pad 140 to its surface as it rotates. This allows the rotating shaft 200 to rotate with the assistance of multiple rotating rollers 170 with the lubricating oil adhering to it, reducing the friction of the rotating shaft 200 when it rotates within the bushing 100.
[0025] Example 2: Please refer to again Figure 1-4 Two rotating shafts 200 are provided on the inner side of the bushing 100. The two rotating shafts 200 are connected by bolts. A swing frame 210 is connected between one end of the two rotating shafts 200. The swing frame 210 is connected to the rotating shafts 200 by bolts. A sealing sleeve 220 is provided on the outer side of each of the two rotating shafts 200. Two second sealing rings 221 are provided on one side of the sealing sleeve 220. The second sealing rings 221 extend to the inner side of the mating groove 110 and are in contact with the first sealing ring 111. A tapered groove 230 is provided on one side of the sealing sleeve 220. The tapered groove 230 is in contact with the tapered ring 120. Two mating rings 231 are provided on one side of the tapered groove 230. The mating rings 231 extend to the inner side of the sealing ring 121 and are in contact with the sealing ring 121.
[0026] Specifically, when installing the rotating shaft 200, the two rotating shafts 200 are inserted into the bushing 100 from both ends, and then the two rotating shafts 200 are rotated to screw them together. Then, the sealing sleeve 220 installed on the rotating shaft 200 fits into the bushing 100. After the sealing sleeve 220 fits into the bushing 100, the second sealing ring 221 extends into the mating groove 110, so that the second sealing ring 221 fits into the first sealing ring 111 in the mating groove 110 to form a multiple sealing barrier. At the same time, the conical groove 230 fits into the conical ring 120 to form a slope seal, and the mating ring 231 installed on the conical groove 230 extends into the sealing ring 121 on the conical ring 120 to form a multiple sealing barrier again.
[0027] Working principle: When installing the rotating shafts 200, the two rotating shafts 200 are inserted into the bushing 100 from both ends, and then the two rotating shafts 200 are rotated to screw them together. Afterwards, the sealing sleeves 220 installed on the rotating shafts 200 fit into the bushing 100. After the sealing sleeves 220 and bushing 100 are fitted together, the second sealing ring 221 installed on the sealing sleeves 220 extends into the mating groove 110 formed on the bushing 100, so that the second... The sealing ring 221 fits into the first sealing ring 111 in the mating groove 110 to form a multiple sealing barrier. At the same time, the tapered groove 230 on the sealing sleeve 220 fits into the tapered ring 120 on the bushing 100 to form a bevel seal. The mating ring 231 installed on the tapered groove 230 extends into the sealing ring 121 on the tapered ring 120 to form another multiple sealing barrier, thereby sealing the gap between the bushing 100 and the rotating shaft 200 and completing the installation of the rotating shaft.
[0028] When lubrication of the shaft is required, lubricating oil is injected into the oil injection pipe 160, allowing the lubricating oil to enter the oil guide groove 150 through the oil injection pipe 160. The lubricating oil then flows within the oil guide groove 150 and is guided to the mounting groove 130 through the evenly distributed through holes 151 within the oil guide groove 150. This allows the lubricating oil to come into contact with the oil-absorbing pad 140, causing the oil-absorbing pad 140 to absorb the lubricating oil. As the roller 170, which is in contact with the oil-absorbing pad 140, rotates, it adheres the lubricating oil from the oil-absorbing pad 140 to its surface. With the assistance of multiple rollers 170 with lubricating oil adhering to them, the shaft 200 rotates, reducing the friction of the shaft 200 when rotating within the bushing 100. This also reduces the wear of the shaft 200 and increases its service life.
