The industry has maintained rapid growth for many years and has formed a relatively mature supply and demand chain with a large market scale.
[0003] A hydraulic cylinder is a hydraulic actuator that converts hydraulic energy into mechanical energy, performing linear reciprocating motion (or oscillating motion). It has a simple structure and reliable operation. When used to achieve reciprocating motion, it eliminates the need for a speed reduction device, has no transmission backlash, and provides smooth movement. Therefore, it is widely used in the hydraulic systems of various machines. Hydraulic cylinders can be mainly classified into four types according to their structure: piston type, plunger type, telescopic type, and oscillating type. Their working principle is to use the pressure of a liquid to generate mechanical motion. Different levels of force and speed are achieved by adjusting the pressure of the hydraulic fluid. Hydraulic cylinders have a very wide range of applications, mainly including engineering machinery, metallurgy, mining, and construction industries.

[0025] The slide rail 3 is fastened to the cylinder body 101 of the hydraulic cylinder 1 by the fastening mechanism 2, and the end of the protective mechanism 4 and the piston rod 102 are fixed together. After the hydraulic cylinder 1 is started, the piston rod 102 moves linearly back and forth on the cylinder body 101 and drives the protective mechanism 4 to slide back and forth on the slide rail 3. The protective mechanism 4 protects the piston rod 102.
[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 The protective mechanism 4 shown includes several sleeve plates 401 extending axially along the cylinder 1 and sliding on the slide rail 3; the sleeve plates 401 are provided with connecting members 402 that slide perpendicular to the axis of the sleeve plates 401, and adjacent sleeve plates 401 are connected by connecting members 402; the protective mechanism 4 includes four sleeve plates 401 evenly arranged around the axis of the cylinder 1, and the sleeve plates 401 are provided with sliding grooves, the axis of the sliding grooves being perpendicular to the coplanarity of the axis of the sleeve plates 401 and the axis of the cylinder 1; the connecting members 402 include telescopic plates 4021 located on both sides of the connecting members 402 and extending axially along the corresponding sliding grooves, the telescopic plates 4021 sliding in the corresponding sliding grooves; the sleeve plates 401 and the connecting members 402 together form the protective space of the protective mechanism 4, and the piston rod 102 is located in the protective space; the ends of the sleeve plates 401 are fixedly connected.
[0027] Pull or squeeze the sleeve 401, and the sleeve 401 moves toward or away from the axis of the protective mechanism 4. At the same time, the connecting piece 402 slides on the sleeve 401 until the diameters of the protective mechanism 4 and the oil cylinder 1 are matched.
[0028] like Figure 1-6 The fastening mechanism 2 shown includes fastening plates 201 arranged opposite each other, and the cylinder body 101 is located between the two fastening plates 201. The two fastening plates 201 are fixed together by fasteners A202. The fastening plates 201 have an arc-shaped structure, and the inner arc surface of the fastening plates 201 faces the cylinder body 101. The fasteners A202 are existing technologies and can be bolts and nuts. The fastening plates 201 have through holes that are compatible with bolts.
[0029] Fastener A202 is used to fasten the fastening plate 201, which is set opposite to the cylinder body 101, and the slide rail 3 is fastened to the cylinder body 101 of the oil cylinder 1 by the fastening mechanism 2.
[0030] like Figure 3-6The fastening plate 201 shown includes several fastening strips 2011 that are hinged together in sequence, and fastening blocks 2012 that are compatible with fasteners A202 are respectively hinged to both ends of the fastening plate 201. The fastening strips 2011 have an arc-shaped structure, and the inner arc surface of the fastening strips 2011 faces the cylinder body 101. Through holes that are compatible with bolts are located on the fastening strips 2011. The hinge axis of the fastening strips 2011 is parallel to the axis of the cylinder body 101, and the hinge axis of the fastening blocks 2012 is parallel to the axis of the cylinder body 101.
[0031] Two fastening plates 201 are placed on both sides of the cylinder body 101 respectively. The corresponding fastening blocks 2012 on the two fastening plates 201 are gradually tightened by the fastener A202. The fastening blocks 2012 rotate and drive the fastening strip 2011 to move along the surface of the cylinder body 101. The fastening strip 2011 rotates and gradually adapts to the outer wall of the cylinder body 101 until the end of the fastening strip 2011 is tightly attached to the outer wall of the cylinder body 101. The two fastening plates 201 are fixed to the cylinder body 101 by the fastener A202. The slide rail 3 is fastened to the cylinder body 101 of the oil cylinder 1 by the fastening mechanism 2.

The slide rail 3 is fixedly connected to any anti-slip block 203. In this embodiment, the slide rail 3 is fixedly connected to the anti-slip block 203 in the middle part of the fastening plate 201.
[0033] Two fastening plates 201 are placed on both sides of the cylinder body 101. Fasteners A202 are used to gradually tighten the corresponding fastening blocks 2012 on the two fastening plates 201. The fastening blocks 2012 rotate, causing the fastening strip 2011 to move along the surface of the cylinder body 101. The fastening strip 2011 rotates and gradually adapts to the outer wall of the cylinder body 101. The anti-slip block 203 and anti-slip pad 204 move along the surface of the cylinder body 101 with the fastening strip 2011. The anti-slip block 203 drives the anti-slip pad 204. As the pad 204 rotates, the anti-slip pad 204 gradually adapts to the outer wall of the cylinder body 101. As the fastening strip 2011 tightens, the anti-slip pad 204 gradually deforms under the pressure of the fastening strip 2011 and the anti-slip block 203 and adapts to the outer wall of the cylinder body 101 until the anti-slip pad 204 completes the clamping of the cylinder body 101. The two fastening plates 201 are fixed to the cylinder body 101 by fastener A202, and the slide rail 3 is fastened to the cylinder body 101 of the oil cylinder 1 by the fastening mechanism 2.
[0034] like Figure 1-3The slide rail 3 shown is provided with a limiting block A5 and a limiting block B6, which are located at both ends of the cylinder body 101 respectively. The limiting blocks A5 and B6 extend toward the axis of the cylinder body 101, and the distance between the limiting block A5 and the axis of the cylinder body 101 is less than the distance between the anti-slip pad 204 and the axis of the cylinder body 101, and the distance between the limiting block B6 and the axis of the cylinder body 101 is less than the distance between the anti-slip pad 204 and the axis of the cylinder body 101.
[0035] Limiting blocks A5 and B6 are respectively set at both ends of cylinder body 101, and slide rail 3 is snapped onto cylinder body 101.
[0036] like Figure 1-5 The limiting block B6 shown is slidably mounted on the slide rail 3 along the axis of the cylinder 1, and the limiting block B6 is connected to the slide rail 3 by fastener B7; the fastener B7 is existing technology and can be a bolt, and the limiting block B6 has a screw hole that matches the fastener B7.
[0037] Limiting block A5 is fitted to one end of cylinder body 101. Limiting block B6 slides on slide rail 3 until limiting block B6 and the other end of cylinder body 101 are fitted together. Limiting block B6 and slide rail 3 are fixed together by fastener B7. Limiting block A5 and limiting block B6 are respectively set at both ends of cylinder body 101, and slide rail 3 is snapped onto cylinder body 101.
[0038] like Figure 1-3 The sleeve plate 401 shown has an elongated hole 4011 extending perpendicular to the axis of the sleeve plate 401. The connector 402 is connected to the sleeve plate 401 by a fastener C403 passing through the elongated hole 4011. The axis of the elongated hole 4011 is the same as that of the slide groove. The fastener C403 is existing technology and can be a bolt. The connector 402 has a screw hole that matches the fastener C403.
[0039] Pull or squeeze the sleeve 401, and the sleeve 401 moves toward or away from the axis of the protective mechanism 4. At the same time, the connector 402 slides on the sleeve 401 until the diameters of the protective mechanism 4 and the cylinder 1 are matched. The sleeve 401 and the connector 402 are then fixed together by the fastener C403.
[0040] In actual production, the sleeve plate 401 is pulled or squeezed, and the sleeve plate 401 moves toward or away from the axis of the protective mechanism 4. At the same time, the connecting piece 402 slides on the sleeve plate 401 until the diameters of the protective mechanism 4 and the oil cylinder 1 are matched. The sleeve plate 401 and the connecting piece 402 are then fixed together by the fastener C403.
[0041] Two fastening plates 201 are placed on both sides of the cylinder body 101. Fasteners A202 are used to gradually tighten the corresponding fastening blocks 2012 on the two fastening plates 201. The fastening blocks 2012 rotate, causing the fastening strip 2011 to move along the surface of the cylinder body 101. The fastening strip 2011 rotates and gradually adapts to the outer wall of the cylinder body 101. The anti-slip block 203 and anti-slip pad 204 move along the surface of the cylinder body 101 with the fastening strip 2011. The anti-slip block 203 drives the anti-slip pad 204. As the pad 204 rotates, the anti-slip pad 204 gradually adapts to the outer wall of the cylinder body 101. As the fastening strip 2011 tightens, the anti-slip pad 204 gradually deforms under the pressure of the fastening strip 2011 and the anti-slip block 203 and adapts to the outer wall of the cylinder body 101 until the anti-slip pad 204 completes the clamping of the cylinder body 101. The two fastening plates 201 are fixed to the cylinder body 101 by fastener A202, and the slide rail 3 is fastened to the cylinder body 101 of the oil cylinder 1 by the fastening mechanism 2.
[0042] Limiting block A5 is fitted to one end of cylinder body 101. Limiting block B6 slides on slide rail 3 until limiting block B6 and the other end of cylinder body 101 are fitted together. Limiting block B6 and slide rail 3 are fixed together by fastener B7. Limiting block A5 and limiting block B6 are respectively set at both ends of cylinder body 101, and slide rail 3 is snapped onto cylinder body 101.
[0043] The protective mechanism 4 and the end of the piston rod 102 are fixedly connected. After the oil cylinder 1 is started, the piston rod 102 moves linearly back and forth on the cylinder body 101 and drives the protective mechanism 4 to slide back and forth on the slide rail 3. The protective mechanism 4 protects the piston rod 102.
