Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of protection device technology, and in particular to an external protection component for hydraulic cylinders. Background Technology

[0002] A hydraulic cylinder is a hydraulic actuator that converts hydraulic energy into mechanical energy to perform 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 and has no transmission backlash, resulting in smooth movement. Therefore, it is widely used in the hydraulic systems of various machines. Common hydraulic cylinder protection devices include protective covers, dust covers, buffer pads, and limit mechanisms.

[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN211288317U discloses a dustproof protection device for a hydraulic cylinder, including a protective cylinder body. One end of the protective cylinder body is threadedly connected to a front protective cover, and the other end of the protective cylinder body is threadedly connected to a rear protective cover. A fixed base is welded to the bottom of the protective cylinder body. Dustproof iron hoops are fixedly installed at both ends of the outer surface of the protective cylinder body. A dustproof pad is fixedly connected to the inner side of the dustproof iron hoops. A piston rod opening is provided at the top of the front protective cover. An adjustable mounting base is fixedly connected inside the protective cylinder body. A hydraulic cylinder placement platform is fixedly connected above the adjustable mounting base. A positioning iron hoop is welded to the upper surface of the hydraulic cylinder placement platform. A dustproof groove is welded to the outer surface of the bottom of the rear protective cover.

[0004] In this existing design, although the hydraulic cylinder can be isolated from the outside world during use by the cooperation of the protective cylinder body, front protective cover and rear protective cover, thus playing a role in dust prevention, ensuring the functional stability of the hydraulic cylinder and extending its service life, and the dustproof wiping cloth can wipe away the dust attached to the piston rod to prevent dust from entering the hydraulic cylinder with the piston rod, traditional protective covers mostly adopt a fixed or simple threaded connection structure, which is cumbersome to disassemble, increases maintenance time and cost, and in frequent maintenance scenarios, the threads of the positioning iron hoop are easily worn due to repeated disassembly and assembly, affecting the sealing effect. In addition, the hydraulic cylinder is fixed in the protective cover, and when it is hit or shaken, it is easy for the hydraulic cylinder to shift or loosen.

[0005] Therefore, an external protective component for the hydraulic cylinder was designed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
