Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model is applicable to the field of automotive shock absorbers, and in particular relates to a shock absorber buffer device, a shock absorber, and an automobile. Background Technology

[0002] Due to its construction or assembly, the shock absorber's buffer block has a large number of internal gaps. When the shock absorber is in compression, the remaining height of the buffer block after ultimate compression is only 1 / 3 of its original height. The air accumulated in the gaps will be rapidly compressed. If it cannot be effectively expelled, it will exceed a critical point and the air will be squeezed out from the buffer block and surrounding mating parts, producing a loud "bang bang bang" sound, which seriously affects the driving experience.

[0003] In summary, the problems existing in the relevant technologies urgently need to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0032] in, Figure 3 The reference direction coordinate system of this utility model embodiment is given below, in conjunction with Figure 3 The embodiments of this utility model will be described in the directions shown.

[0033] See Figures 3-6 This utility model provides a shock absorber buffer device, including a shock absorber body 100, a stop cover 200, a mounting base 300, and a buffer block 400. The stop cover 200 is disposed at the top of the shock absorber body 100 and has a through hole. The piston rod 101 of the shock absorber body 100 extends outward through the through hole of the stop cover 200 and is connected to the mounting base 300. The buffer block 400 can be made of rubber and is used for buffering and limiting between the shock absorber body 100 and the mounting base 300. The buffer block 400 has an axial inner hole 4. 01. The buffer block 400 is fitted onto the piston rod 101 and mounted on the mounting base 300. A gap 201 is left between the stop cover 200 and the piston rod 101. The stop cover 200 includes a first cover body 202 and a second cover body 203. The first cover body 202 and the second cover body 203 form a multi-layer structure at the end of the shock absorber body 100. The first cover body 202 has an annular end face 204 on the side away from the second cover body 203 for abutting against the buffer block 400. An exhaust groove 205 communicating with the gap 201 is provided between the first cover body 202 and the second cover body 203.

[0034] Combination Figure 8In this embodiment of the invention, the stop cover 200 forms a multi-layer structure through the first cover body 202 and the second cover body 203, and an exhaust groove 205 is further provided between the first cover body 202 and the second cover body 203. When the shock absorber is compressed, the buffer block 400 abuts against the annular end face 204 of the first cover body 202, and the air accumulated inside the buffer block 400 is rapidly compressed. The compressed gas can flow along the inner cavity of the buffer block 400 to the gap 201 between the stop cover 200 and the piston rod 101, and then flow out through the exhaust groove 205 between the first cover body 202 and the second cover body 203. The technical solution of this invention not only effectively enhances the overall strength of the stop cover 200, but also effectively solves the problem of noise caused by the compression and exhaust of the buffer block 400 through the exhaust groove 205 between the first cover body 202 and the second cover body 203.

[0035] In some embodiments, see Figures 4-6 , Figure 8 The second cover 203 includes a radially extending end cap 206 and an axially extending sleeve 207 extending from the edge of the end cap 206. The sleeve 207 is fitted onto the top of the shock absorber body 100. The first cover 202 is disposed on the top of the end cap 206 of the second cover 203, and an exhaust groove 205 is disposed between the first cover 202 and the end cap 206. In this embodiment, the sleeve 207 of the second cover 203 achieves assembly connection with the shock absorber body 100. Furthermore, the first cover 202 and the end cap 206 of the second cover 203 form a double-layer structure, which can effectively improve the overall strength of the stop cover 200, and further, the exhaust groove 205 effectively solves the problem of noise caused by the compression exhaust of the buffer block 400.

[0036] Further, see Figures 4-6 The first cover 202 has multiple radially extending grooves on the side facing the end cover portion 206. The first cover 202 is welded to the end cover portion 206 of the second cover 203, and the grooves form an exhaust groove 205. Both the first cover 202 and the second cover 203 can be formed by stamping sheet metal. The first cover 202 can be stamped to form a groove that protrudes upwards. The first cover 202 is welded to the end cover portion 206 of the second cover 203, and the grooves form the exhaust groove 205. This embodiment has a simple structure and facilitates the manufacture of the stop cover 200.

[0037] In some embodiments, see Figure 7 , Figure 8 The mounting base 300 has a slot 301 at its bottom, which has a tapered design. The buffer block 400 has a limiting flange 402 at its top, which is installed in the slot 301. The buffer block 400 is made of rubber and has elastic deformation capability. During assembly, the buffer block 400 is pressed into the slot 301 of the mounting base 300.

[0038] In some embodiments, see Figure 7 The top end face of the buffer block 400 is provided with a drainage groove 403, and the side of the buffer block 400 is provided with an overflow groove 404, which extends from the drainage groove 403 beyond the slot 301. See also Figure 8 When the shock absorber is in compression operation, the flow channel 403 and the overflow channel 404 form a passage connecting the inner cavity of the buffer block 400 with the outside, guiding compressed air as... Figure 8 The arrow direction overflows, further eliminating the generation of actuation airflow noise.

[0039] In some embodiments, see Figure 7 , Figure 8 The outer wall of the buffer block 400 is provided with several external deformation ring grooves 405, and the inner wall of the buffer block 400 that mates with the piston rod 101 is provided with several internal deformation ring grooves 406. The external deformation ring grooves 405 and internal deformation ring grooves 406 can guide the buffer block 400 to deform at the external deformation ring grooves 405 and internal deformation ring grooves 406 after being compressed, thereby achieving a better buffering effect.

[0040] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 The shock absorber buffer device also includes a dust cover 500, which extends along the length direction. One end of the dust cover 500 is connected to the mounting base 300. The mounting base 300 is provided with an outer slot 301 for mounting the dust cover 500. The other end of the dust cover 500 is sleeved on the outside of the shock absorber body 100 and covers the stop cover 200 and the buffer block 400 inside, so as to play a protective and dustproof role.

[0041] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 , Figure 8 The piston rod 101 of the shock absorber body 100 passes through the mounting base 300 and is locked by the nut 600. The mounting base 300 has a dust cover 700 on the outside of the nut 600. During assembly, first press the stop cover 200 onto the shock absorber body, then press the buffer block 400 firmly into the slot 301 of the upper mounting base 300. The dust cover 500 is then assembled into the outer slot 301 of the mounting base 300, and then the entire assembly is fitted onto the piston rod 101 of the body. Finally, it is tightened with the nut 600, and then the dust cover 700 is snapped on. The entire installation process is convenient and quick.
