[0016] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for explaining the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0017] See Figure 1A nitrogen shock absorber piston rod connection reinforcement structure includes a lower connecting seat 1 and a piston rod 2, as well as a transition sleeve 3 and a reinforcing ring 4. The transition sleeve 3 is sleeved outside the connecting end of the piston rod 2 and disposed inside the lower connecting seat 1. The transition sleeve 3 has an internal threaded hole adapted to the piston rod 2 and an external thread adapted to the lower connecting seat 1. The transition sleeve 3 is fastened to the piston rod 2 through the internal threaded hole and fastened to the lower connecting seat 1 through the external threaded hole. The reinforcing ring is fixedly disposed inside the front end of the transition sleeve. Specifically, the piston rod is a slender rod-shaped structure. One end connects to the piston inside the shock absorber, and the other end is a connecting end for external connection. The outer surface of the connecting end is provided with external threads for installation with external connecting parts. The stepped design of the transition sleeve 3 can reasonably distribute stress, avoid stress concentration at key connection parts, reduce the risk of fatigue cracks, and extend the service life of the structure. Through the cooperation of the transition sleeve 3 and the reinforcing ring 4, the connection strength between the piston rod and the external connecting parts is significantly improved, effectively resisting loosening and detachment during vibration, and ensuring the stability of force transmission.
[0018] In this embodiment, the outer wall of the transition sleeve 3 is stepped, including a first cylindrical segment 31 near the piston rod end, a middle transition cone segment 32, and a second cylindrical segment 33 away from the piston rod end. The minor diameter of the first cylindrical segment 31 is smaller than the outer diameter of the second cylindrical segment 33. The transition cone segment 32 is used to achieve a smooth transition between the first and second cylindrical segments. A reinforcing ring 4 is provided inside the first cylindrical segment 31. This stepped structure can better disperse stress and avoid stress concentration at the connection point.
[0019] In this embodiment, the reinforcing ring 4 is located on the outside of the first cylindrical section 31 of the transition sleeve. It is welded to the piston rod by argon arc welding, and the weld height does not protrude from the plane, which further strengthens the connection and prevents relative rotation.
[0020] Installation steps of this utility model:
[0021] 1. First, put the lower connecting transition sleeve 4 on the connecting end of the piston rod 2, ensuring that the lower connecting transition sleeve covers a certain length of the connecting end near the end, and that its position is flat and without twisting or other issues.
[0022] 2. Next, a reinforcing ring is installed on the outer side of the first cylindrical section of the transition sleeve 3. The reinforcing ring and the piston rod are welded together by argon arc welding, and the weld height does not protrude from the plane.
[0023] 3. Then, screw the connecting seat 1 into the external thread of the transition seat 3 using its internal thread. During the screwing process, apply an appropriate amount of thread-locking adhesive to further enhance the tightness of the connection and prevent the threads from loosening. Tighten the threads to the specified torque using a suitable torque wrench to complete the installation of the entire nitrogen shock absorber piston rod connection reinforcement structure.
