Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hydraulic cylinder technology, and in particular to a hydraulic cylinder protection device. Background Technology
[0002] Hydraulic cylinders, as hydraulic actuators that convert hydraulic energy into mechanical energy to achieve linear reciprocating motion (or oscillating motion), are widely used in the hydraulic systems of various machines due to their simple structure and reliable operation. However, in actual use, hydraulic cylinders face many factors that may affect their performance and lifespan.
[0003] Dust, particles, and other impurities in the external environment can easily adhere to the surface of the piston rod in a hydraulic cylinder. During the extension and retraction of the piston rod, these impurities may scratch the coating on the piston rod surface, thereby damaging the sealing structure, leading to hydraulic oil leakage, and reducing the working efficiency and stability of the hydraulic cylinder. For example, in mechanical equipment operating in dusty environments such as mines and construction sites, the probability of hydraulic cylinder failure due to impurity intrusion is significantly increased. Therefore, a hydraulic cylinder protection device is needed. Utility Model Content

Rectangular strips 1 5 are fixedly installed on the outer ring of sleeve 2 309 and are slidably connected to the rectangular grooves 1, facilitating guiding and limiting the contraction of sleeve 2 309. A limiting ring 1 6 is provided on the outer ring of sleeve 2 309 and is fixedly installed on the outer ring of sleeve 2 309. The limiting ring 1 6 is located at... The front end of the rectangular strip 5 is used to limit the sleeve 308 and prevent it from coming off the outer ring of the sleeve 309. The inner ring of the sleeve 309 is slidably provided with the sleeve 310. The upper and lower sides of the front inner ring of the sleeve 309 are provided with rectangular grooves 2. The upper and lower sides of the outer ring of the sleeve 310 are provided with rectangular strips 2 7. The rectangular strips 2 7 are fixedly installed on the outer ring of the sleeve 310.

[0026] The outer ring of sleeve 310 is provided with a limiting ring 2 8, which is fixedly installed on the outer ring of sleeve 310. The limiting ring 2 8 is located at the front end of rectangular strip 2 7 to prevent sleeve 2 309 from coming off the outer ring of sleeve 310. Sleeve 1 308, sleeve 2 309, and sleeve 310 are all arranged in an approximately N-shape, interlocking with each other for limiting. The front end of sleeve 310 is provided with a push head 311, which is fixedly connected to sleeve 310.

Then, the positioning block 4 is installed into the positioning groove for front and rear positioning. Next, the mounting plate 301 is installed from the piston rod side of the hydraulic cylinder body 1, aligned with the inside of the corner block 207. Simultaneously, the two levers 306 are moved upwards, causing the T-shaped locking block 307 to align with the rectangular slot 205 without the limiting strip 206 on the front side. The T-shaped locking block 307 is installed at the blocking position. After the T-shaped locking block 307 is installed, the force on the lever block 306 can be released, so that the spring 303 pushes the slider 304 to move the T-shaped locking block 307 to the blocking position of the limit strip 206 inside the rectangular slot 205, ensuring the stability of the connection between the protective mechanism 2 and the dustproof mechanism 3. Then, the push head 311 is fixedly connected to the front end of the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder body 1, so that the sleeve 1 308, sleeve 2 309, and sleeve 3 310 provide dustproof protection for the piston rod.
