Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of piston technology, and in particular to an impact-resistant and anti-loosening piston assembly for a concrete pump cylinder. Background Technology
[0002] As a key actuator in the hydraulic system of concrete pumping equipment, the piston of the concrete pump cylinder plays a crucial role in converting hydraulic energy into mechanical energy, thereby continuously transporting concrete within the pipeline. During actual operation, oil enters the rodless chamber of one cylinder, propelling the piston forward and causing the connected concrete piston to discharge concrete. Simultaneously, oil enters the rod chamber of another cylinder, causing the piston to retract and draw in concrete, thus achieving a cyclical operation through hydraulic circuit reversal.
[0003] Because the piston is frequently subjected to hydraulic shocks during reciprocating motion, the connection structure of traditional piston assemblies is prone to problems such as loosening of parts and connection failure when dealing with such shocks, which affects the stable operation of the concrete pump cylinder.
[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model document proposes an impact-resistant and anti-loosening piston assembly for a concrete pump cylinder. Utility Model Content
[0005] This utility model provides an impact-resistant and anti-loosening piston assembly for a concrete pump cylinder, which solves the shortcomings of the prior art. Because the piston is frequently subjected to hydraulic impact during reciprocating motion, the connection structure of the traditional piston assembly is prone to problems such as component loosening and connection failure when dealing with such impacts, which affects the stable operation of the concrete pump cylinder.
[0006] This utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] An impact-resistant and anti-loosening piston assembly for a concrete pump cylinder includes:
[0008] A piston fixing seat, wherein a sealing ring is snapped onto the roller surface of the piston fixing seat, a first mating plate is fixedly installed on one side of the piston fixing seat, and a sealing seat for limiting the sealing ring is detachably installed on the other side of the piston fixing seat;
[0009] A piston rod is provided on the other side of the first docking plate, and a second docking plate is fixedly provided at the end of the piston rod. The aligned first docking plate and second docking plate are reinforced by matching upper and lower half-moon locking blocks.
[0010] In one possible design, the sealing seat is inserted into the cavity in the center of the piston fixing seat via a central crossbar.
[0011] In one possible design, three first bolts are arranged in a circular array in the recessed opening at the center of the first mating plate. The first bolts pass through the reserved holes on the piston fixing seat and are threadedly connected to the threaded groove corresponding to the end of the central crossbar of the sealing seat.
[0012] In one possible design, three positioning rods for aligning with the first docking plate are fixedly arranged in a circular array on one side of the second docking plate, and the first docking plate is provided with positioning holes for inserting the corresponding positioning rods.
[0013] In one possible design, the upper half-moon block covers the top of the first and second mating discs after alignment, and the lower half-moon block covers the bottom of the first and second mating discs after alignment. Two second bolts are provided in the recesses at both ends of the upper half-moon block. The second bolts pass through the reserved holes on the upper half-moon block and are threadedly connected to the corresponding threaded grooves on the top of the upper half-moon block.
[0014] In one possible design, the outer wall of the second docking plate is provided with two sets of raised grooves to assist in the alignment of the two crescent-shaped locking blocks, and the inner walls of the upper and lower crescent-shaped locking blocks are provided with grooves for engaging the corresponding raised grooves.
[0015] It should be understood that the above general description and the following detailed description are merely exemplary and do not limit the present invention.
[0016] The working principle and usage process of this technical solution are as follows:
[0017] During installation, the sealing ring is snapped onto the roller surface of the piston fixing seat, and then the sealing seat is inserted into the cavity in the center of the piston fixing seat through the central crossbar. The three first bolts arranged in a ring array with the central concave opening of the first mating plate are threaded through the reserved hole on the piston fixing seat and threaded into the threaded groove corresponding to the end of the central crossbar of the sealing seat, so as to realize the axial limit of the sealing seat on the sealing ring and prevent the sealing ring from falling out.
[0018] Next, the positioning holes on the first mating plate are connected to the three positioning rods on the second mating plate at the end of the piston rod to ensure precise alignment of the first and second mating plates and avoid misalignment that could lead to connection failure. Then, the upper half-moon block is used to cover the top of the aligned first and second mating plates, and the lower half-moon block is used to cover the bottom. The raised texture on the outer wall of the second mating plate is used to engage with the grooves on the inner walls of the upper and lower half-moon blocks to assist in the alignment of the two half-moon blocks. Finally, the second bolt is passed through the pre-drilled hole in the upper half-moon block and threadedly connected to the threaded groove on the top of the second mating plate to secure the upper and lower half-moon blocks, forming a ring-shaped encircling structure and enhancing the connection's impact resistance.
[0019] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0020] This invention uses upper and lower crescent-shaped locking blocks to form a ring-shaped surrounding structure, dispersing the impact force to the entire surface of the docking plate, avoiding local stress concentration, and improving connection strength; the interlocking fit of the convex and groove further restricts the slippage of the crescent-shaped locking blocks, ensuring connection stability; the ring array layout of the positioning rod and positioning hole can withstand multi-directional shearing forces, preventing the piston rod and piston assembly from rotating eccentrically, thereby comprehensively ensuring the stable operation of the concrete pump cylinder.
[0021] In this utility model, the piston fixing seat and the sealing seat are detachably connected. The installation method of the upper half-moon locking block and the lower half-moon locking block makes the piston assembly more convenient to install and disassemble. It is easy to replace and maintain the sealing ring and other components independently. During maintenance, there is no need to replace the entire piston assembly, which reduces spare parts costs and maintenance time. Attached Figure Description
