Abstract

This utility model discloses an inertia ring that is easy to install and disassemble quickly, belonging to the field of inertia ring technology. It includes a mounting shaft, with a first mounting mechanism and a second mounting mechanism fixedly mounted on both sides of the mounting shaft. The first mounting mechanism includes a first outer shell, within which a first sliding disc is rotatably mounted via a bushing. This inertia ring, which facilitates quick installation and disassembly, allows for easy installation by pulling a handle to rotate and compress a torsion spring. The torsion spring then rotates a slider, engaging a first locking slide rail into a groove on a fixed plate. Stopping the rotation of the first handle causes the torsion spring to self-reset, locking the slider into the first locking slide rail. Rotating the second handle further compresses the torsion spring. This method eliminates the traditional bolt-connection method for installing the inertia ring, instead using a locking mechanism between the first and second locking slide rails and a torsion spring self-locking mechanism, thus improving the installation efficiency of the inertia ring.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of inertial ring technology, specifically an inertial ring that is easy to install and disassemble quickly. Background Technology

[0002] An inertia ring is a metal ring-shaped device installed on a shock absorber. Its core function is to increase the mass inertia of the shock absorber, thereby improving the damping ratio and power transmission. In automotive silicone oil shock absorbers, the inertia ring is an important component. Generally, its assembly is basically fixed, but traditional assembly is inflexible and is usually done by bolt connection, which makes the maintenance and installation of the inertia ring time-consuming and labor-intensive. Utility Model Content

[0003] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, this utility model provides an inertia ring that is easy to install and disassemble quickly, solving the problem of poor assembly flexibility in traditional systems, which generally rely on bolt connections, resulting in time-consuming and labor-intensive maintenance and installation of the inertia ring.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an inertial ring that is easy to install and disassemble quickly, comprising a mounting shaft, with a first mounting mechanism and a second mounting mechanism fixedly mounted on both sides of the mounting shaft. The first mounting mechanism includes a first housing, with a first sliding disc rotatably mounted inside the first housing via a bushing. A plurality of limiting grooves are provided in the first sliding disc, and a first fixing rod is provided in each of the plurality of first fixing rods. A first snap-fit ​​slide rail is fixedly mounted at one end of each of the first fixing rods. The first snap-fit ​​slide rail is composed of a slide rail and a snap-fit ​​block. A fixing plate is snapped into the snap-fit ​​block of the first snap-fit ​​slide rail. A first handle is fixedly mounted on one side of the first housing.

[0005] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the fixing plate is fixedly installed on one side of the second mounting mechanism, the second mounting mechanism includes a second housing, a second sliding disc is rotatably installed inside the second housing via a bushing, and a second handle is fixedly installed on the side of the second housing away from the first housing.

[0006] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a second fixing rod is provided in several limiting grooves inside the second sliding disc, a second snap-fit ​​slide rail is fixedly installed at one end of the second fixing rod, and a bearing is fixedly installed on the side of the second snap-fit ​​slide rail and the first snap-fit ​​slide rail that are far apart from each other.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the second snap-fit ​​slide rail is composed of a slide rail and a snap-fit ​​block, and the snap-fit ​​blocks of the first snap-fit ​​slide rail and the second snap-fit ​​slide rail are staggered and snap-fitted into the grooves of the fixing plate.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a torsion spring is fixedly installed on the side of the first outer shell and the second outer shell that are close to each other, and an installation shaft is sleeved inside the torsion spring.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the mounting shaft is fixedly installed at the center of the fixed plate, and the first and second snap-fit ​​slide rails have sliders snapped into them. The ends of the two torsion springs that are close to each other are respectively fixedly installed on the sides of the two sliders that are far apart from each other.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0011] 1. This inertia ring, which facilitates quick installation and disassembly, utilizes a torsion spring, a first mounting mechanism, a second mounting mechanism, and a slider. When installation is required, the first mounting mechanism is installed first. Pulling the handle rotates the torsion spring, compressing it and causing the slider to rotate, engaging the first locking rail into the groove of the fixed plate. Stopping the first handle allows the torsion spring to self-reset the slider, locking it into the first locking rail. Then, rotating the second handle compresses the torsion spring, engaging the second locking rail into the groove of the fixed plate. Stopping the second handle allows the torsion spring to self-reset, locking the slider into the second locking rail. This design eliminates the traditional bolt-connection method for inertia ring installation, instead using a locking mechanism between the first and second locking rails with a torsion spring self-locking mechanism, thus improving installation efficiency.

[0012] 2. This inertia ring, which facilitates quick installation and disassembly, is equipped with a first handle, a second handle, and a torsion spring. When disassembly is required, rotating the first handle causes the torsion spring to rotate and pull the first housing outward, thereby removing the first mounting rail and completing the disassembly of the first mounting mechanism. Rotating and pulling the second handle causes the slider to move away from the second mounting rail, releasing the lock. Pulling the second handle outward completes the disassembly of the second mounting mechanism. This design eliminates the traditional method of unlocking with a screwdriver. By using the first and second handles to engage the torsion spring with the first and second mounting rails, the disassembly efficiency of the inertia ring is improved. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solution of this patent will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0020] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: an inertial ring that is easy to install and disassemble quickly, including a mounting shaft 3. A first mounting mechanism 1 and a second mounting mechanism 2 are fixedly installed on both sides of the mounting shaft 3. The first mounting mechanism 1 includes a first housing 103. A first sliding disc 104 is rotatably installed in the first housing 103 through a bushing. A first fixing rod 102 is provided in a plurality of limiting grooves opened in the first sliding disc 104. A first snap-fit ​​slide rail 105 is fixedly installed at one end of the plurality of first fixing rods 102. The first snap-fit ​​slide rail 105 is composed of a slide rail and a snap-fit ​​block. The snap-fit ​​block of the first snap-fit ​​slide rail 105 snaps a fixing plate 4. A first handle 101 is fixedly installed on one side of the first housing 103.

[0021] The fixing plate 4 is fixedly installed on one side of the second mounting mechanism 2. The second mounting mechanism 2 includes a second housing 201. A second sliding disc 202 is rotatably installed inside the second housing 201 via a bushing. A second handle 203 is fixedly installed on the side of the second housing 201 away from the first housing 103. By providing the second handle 203, one end of the second handle 203 is installed on one side of the slider 7 via a torsion spring 5. The second handle 203 can control the slider 7, making it convenient to lock and unlock the slider 7, thus improving the convenience of controlling the second mounting mechanism 2.

[0022] A second fixing rod 204 is provided in several limiting grooves inside the second sliding disc 202. A second snap-fit ​​slide rail 205 is fixedly installed at one end of the second fixing rod 204. A bearing 6 is fixedly installed on the side of the second snap-fit ​​slide rail 205 that is far away from the first snap-fit ​​slide rail 105. By setting the second fixing rod 204 in the limiting groove of the second sliding disc 202, the limiting groove can limit the second snap-fit ​​slide rail 205 and improve the stability of the second snap-fit ​​slide rail 205.

[0023] The second snap-fit ​​slide rail 205 consists of a slide rail and a snap-fit ​​block. The snap-fit ​​blocks of the first snap-fit ​​slide rail 105 and the second snap-fit ​​slide rail 205 are staggered and snap-fitted into the grooves on the fixing plate 4. By providing the first snap-fit ​​slide rail 105 and the second snap-fit ​​slide rail 205, the first snap-fit ​​slide rail 105 and the second snap-fit ​​slide rail 205 can be staggered and snap-fitted, which improves the stability of the inertia ring installation.

[0024] A torsion spring 5 is fixedly installed on the side of the first outer shell 103 and the second outer shell 201 that are close to each other. An installation shaft 3 is sleeved inside the torsion spring 5. With the torsion spring 5 installed, the slider 7 is tilted in the initial state. Pulling the first handle 101 or the second handle 203 will cause the torsion spring 5 to rotate and squeeze the torsion spring 5 into the fixed plate 4, and then complete the self-locking, which improves the convenience of the inertial ring operation.

[0025] The mounting shaft 3 is fixedly installed at the center of the fixed plate 4. The first snap-fit ​​slide rail 105 and the second snap-fit ​​slide rail 205 have a slider 7 snapped in between. The two torsion springs 5 ​​are fixedly installed on the opposite sides of the two sliders 7. The slider 7 is provided with a bearing 6 installed on one side of the slider 7. The torsion springs 5 ​​drive the slider 7 to rotate on the bearing 6, which improves the stability of the slider 7 rotation. At the same time, the bearing 6 also connects the first snap-fit ​​slide rail 105 and the second snap-fit ​​slide rail 205.

[0026] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When the inertia ring needs to be installed, first install the first installation mechanism 1, pull the first handle 101 to rotate and drive the torsion spring 5 to compress. The torsion spring 5 drives the slider 7 to rotate and engage the first locking slide rail 105 into the groove of the fixing plate 4. Stop rotating the first handle 101, and the torsion spring 5 drives the slider 7 to self-reset and engage into the slide rail of the first locking slide rail 105 to complete the locking. Then rotate the second handle 203 to rotate and drive the torsion spring 5 to compress. The second locking slide rail 205 engages into the groove on the fixing plate 4. Stop rotating the second handle 203, and the second handle 203 self-resets through the torsion spring 5 to engage the slider 7 into the slide rail of the second locking slide rail 205 to complete the locking.

[0027] When it is necessary to disassemble the inertia ring, rotate the first handle 101 to drive the torsion spring 5 to rotate and pull the first housing 103 outward to drive the first locking slide rail 105, and remove it to complete the disassembly of the first mounting mechanism 1. Rotate and pull the second handle 203 to drive the slider 7 to leave the slide rail on the second locking slide rail 205 to release the lock. Pull the second handle 203 outward to complete the disassembly of the second mounting mechanism 2.
