In addition, the aluminum alloy layer is easy to process and form, which can meet complex design requirements.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, a carbon fiber layer is disposed inside the rectangular plate at the lower end of the aluminum alloy layer.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the carbon fiber layer has extremely high strength and rigidity, while being very lightweight, which can significantly reduce the overall weight and improve energy efficiency. Its excellent fatigue performance enables it to maintain stability during long-term use and provides better protection.

[0018] In a preferred embodiment, a stainless steel layer is disposed inside the rectangular plate at the lower end of the carbon fiber layer.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the stainless steel layer has excellent corrosion resistance and strength, can withstand high temperature and high pressure, is suitable for harsh working environments, is easy to clean, has low maintenance costs, and extends service life.

[0020] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this application are:

[0021] In this application, during the use of the components, the operator uses a snap-fit ​​plate to easily fix the position of the rectangular plate, which is then conveniently inserted into the spring hole of the rail vehicle frame using a plug-in plug. This facilitates the protection of the spring hole, preventing external contaminants from entering. During use, the operator removes the fixing bolts, and then moves the snap-fit ​​plate within the sliding groove via the connecting spring, making it easy to remove the fixing bolts from the rectangular plate. The fixing bolts are then reinserted into the rectangular plate and connected to the threaded holes on the corresponding positions on the side of the snap-fit ​​plate, ensuring the snap-fit ​​plate is firmly positioned. This facilitates subsequent use of the snap-fit ​​plate to fix the rectangular plate in its working position, ensuring a stable connection between the components. Attached Figure Description

[0029] Reference Figure 1-3 A protective device for processing air spring holes in a rail vehicle frame includes a rectangular plate 1. Multiple sliding grooves are formed on the side of the rectangular plate 1, and a snap-fit ​​plate 4 is slidably connected inside each groove. Multiple connecting springs 7 are fixedly connected to the sliding grooves inside the rectangular plate 1, and the other end of each connecting spring 7 is fixedly connected to the snap-fit ​​plate 4. Multiple threaded holes 6 are formed on the side of the snap-fit ​​plate 4, and multiple fixing bolts 3 are threadedly connected to the side of the rectangular plate 1. The other end of each fixing bolt 3 passes through the rectangular plate 1 and is inserted into the threaded hole 6 on the side of the snap-fit ​​plate 4. During use, the operator can easily fix the position of the rectangular plate 1 using the snap-fit ​​plate 4, thus facilitating passage. The plug 5 is inserted into the spring hole of the rail vehicle frame to facilitate the protection of the spring hole and prevent external contaminants from entering. During use, the operator removes the fixing bolt 3 and then moves the snap-fit ​​plate 4 in the sliding groove through the connecting spring 7, making it easy to remove the fixing bolt 3 from the rectangular plate 1. The fixing bolt 3 is then reinserted into the rectangular plate 1 and connected to the threaded hole 6 on the corresponding position on the side of the snap-fit ​​plate 4 to ensure the position of the snap-fit ​​plate 4 is stable. This facilitates the subsequent use of the snap-fit ​​plate 4 to fix the working position of the rectangular plate 1 and ensures a stable connection between components.

[0030] Reference Figure 1-3 The snap-fit ​​plate 4 has a fixing through hole 9 inside. The fixing through hole 9 allows the operator to pass the fixing bolt through the fixing through hole 9 and then connect the area around the air spring hole, thereby facilitating the fixing of the rectangular plate 1 in the working position.

[0031] Reference Figure 1-3 A handle plate 2 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the rectangular plate 1. The handle plate 2 allows the staff to hold and pull the rectangular plate 1 to easily remove the component for subsequent operation.

[0032] Reference Figure 1-3 The lower end of the rectangular plate 1 is fixedly connected with a plug 5. The plug 5 is made of rubber. The plug 5 can be easily inserted into the spring hole, thereby ensuring the sealing of the inside of the spring hole and thus performing protective operations. The use of rubber material reduces friction damage during installation and protects the spring hole.

[0033] Reference Figure 1-4 The rectangular plate 1 is composed of multiple layers of materials. An aluminum alloy layer 11 is provided inside the rectangular plate 1. The aluminum alloy layer 11 is lightweight and high-strength, which can effectively reduce the weight of the mounting plate. It also has good corrosion resistance, making it suitable for use in harsh environments. At the same time, the aluminum alloy layer 11 is easy to process and form, which can meet complex design requirements.

[0034] Reference Figure 1-4 The interior of the rectangular plate 1 is provided with a carbon fiber layer 10 at the lower end of the aluminum alloy layer 11. The carbon fiber layer 10 has extremely high strength and rigidity, and is very lightweight, which can significantly reduce the overall weight and improve energy efficiency. Its excellent fatigue performance enables it to maintain stability during long-term use and provides better protection.

[0035] Reference Figure 1-4 Inside the rectangular plate 1, at the lower end of the carbon fiber layer 10, there is a stainless steel layer 8. The stainless steel layer 8 has excellent corrosion resistance and strength, can withstand high temperature and high pressure, is suitable for harsh working environments, is easy to clean, has low maintenance costs, and extends service life.

[0036] The implementation principle of the embodiment of the machining protection device for air spring holes in a rail vehicle frame of this application is as follows:

[0037] In the use of the components, the operator uses the snap-fit ​​plate 4 to easily fix the position of the rectangular plate 1, which is then conveniently inserted into the air spring hole of the rail vehicle frame using the plug plug 5. This facilitates the protection of the air spring hole, preventing external contaminants from entering. During use, the operator removes the fixing bolt 3, and then moves the snap-fit ​​plate 4 in the sliding groove via the connecting spring 7, making it easy to remove the fixing bolt 3 from the rectangular plate 1. The fixing bolt 3 is then reinserted into the rectangular plate 1, and then connected to the threaded hole 6 on the corresponding position on the side of the snap-fit ​​plate 4, ensuring the position of the snap-fit ​​plate 4 is stable. This facilitates subsequent use of the snap-fit ​​plate 4 to fix the working position of the rectangular plate 1, ensuring a stable connection between components. This structure allows the snap-fit ​​plate 4 to be removed when needed and moved back into the rectangular plate 1 when not in use, thus reducing the space occupied by the rectangular plate 1 and facilitating storage and operation.
