Detailed description of the invention
Fig. 1 is the structure before the present invention compresses, and specifically refer to structure when air bellow is in the screw rod bottom dead point 6a of screw rod 6, now, when air bag 2 is uncompressed, air spring rigidity is minimum.Again see Fig. 2, the present invention includes an air bag 2, the top of air bag 2 is air bag top cover 1, is fixedly connected with air-bag base 11 in the middle of the bottom of air bag 2, and the upper surface that the basal surface of air bag 2 and air bag set off 3 contacts.
Arrange one in the below of air bag 2 from lifting mechanism, then see Fig. 3, comprise screw rod 6, sleeve 5.1, straight gear 5.4, electrical motor 8, track adjusting wheel 9, grooved guide rail 10 etc. from lifting mechanism.Air-bag base 11 is fixed on the upper end of screw rod 6, and the lower end of screw rod 6 is fixedly connected with vehicle frame 7, and screw rod 6 is perpendicular with vehicle frame 7, and the diameter of screw rod 6 need meet rigidity requirement.Axially coaxial sleeve along screw rod 6 has sleeve 5.1 and straight gear 5.4, wherein, the lower end of sleeve 5.1 and the upper end edge coaxial direction of straight gear 5.4 are fixed and welded together, sleeve 5.1 and screw rod 6 have free-running fit, and the internal diameter of sleeve 5.1 is greater than the external diameter of screw rod 6, and sleeve 5.1 empty set is outside screw rod 6, when screw rod 6 rotates, sleeve 5.1 does not follow rotation, and the outer peripheral surface of sleeve 5.1 is fixedly equipped with cylindrical bearing 5.2, and the roller of cylindrical bearing 5.2 is axial arranged.
The center of straight gear 5.4 is tapped bore, and straight gear 5.4 is connected with screw rod 6 by tapped bore, because helicitic texture has self-lock ability, so current location can be kept to immobilize when straight gear 5.4 rotates to diverse location and not need extra catch gear.The external diameter of straight gear 5.4 is greater than the external diameter of sleeve 5.1, and the upper surface of straight gear 5.4 is equipped with cylindrical bearing 5.3, the roller radial arrangement of cylindrical bearing 5.2.The central contact that air bag sets off 3 is enclosed within outside cylindrical bearing 5.2, make cylindrical bearing 5.2 and air bag set off 3 inner surfaces to contact, play restriction air bag and set off 3 effects moved radially, simultaneously, the bottom surface that air bag sets off 3 is seated on cylindrical bearing 5.3, and cylindrical bearing 5.3 is used for support air bag and sets off 3.
Have a circle upper groove in the upper edge of straight gear 5.4, lower edge has a circle low groove, guiding annulus bracket 4 to be enclosed within upper and lower groove and freely can to rotate along upper and lower groove.The upper surface, side of guiding annulus bracket 4 and lower surface all extend to the outside of straight gear 5.4 along the radial direction of straight gear 5.4, and upper surface is fixedly connected with a track adjusting wheel 9 respectively with the extending end place of lower surface, two track adjusting wheels 9 are arranged in grooved guide rail 10 one on the other, can simultaneously vertically movement up and down in grooved guide rail 10, the stroke that track adjusting wheel 9 moves up and down is by the restriction of screw rod 6 bottom dead point 6a and top dead point 6b.Grooved guide rail 10 is vertically fixed on vehicle frame 7, and grooved guide rail 10 and screw rod 6 are in the same way and parallel.Between the upper surface and lower surface of the extension of guiding annulus bracket 4, electrical motor 8 is set, the housing of electrical motor 8 is fixed on guiding annulus bracket 4, the output shaft of electrical motor 8 installs driving gear, and driving gear engagement straight gear 5.4, drives straight gear 5.4 to rotate by electrical motor 8.The effect of guiding annulus bracket 4 is mainly for the installation of electrical motor 8 and track adjusting wheel 9 provides support.
See the structure after the air bellow compression of Fig. 4, structure when specifically finger air bellow is in top dead point 6b.After electrical motor 8 drives straight gear 5.4 to rotate, straight gear 5.4 moves up along screw rod 6, the annulus bracket 4 that simultaneously leads also moves up along grooved guide rail 10 with electrical motor 8 under the effect of track adjusting wheel 9, lifting air bag sets off 3, during arrival top dead point 6b position, electrical motor 8 stops action, obtains air bellow maximum rigidity in compression rear gasbag 2 and stroke range.Air bag sets off 3 and directly contacts with air-spring bellows 2, and owing to contacting with the cylindrical bearing 5.3 in straight gear 5.4 with the cylindrical bearing 5.2 on sleeve 5.1, therefore air bag sets off 3 and can not rotate along with the rotation of straight gear 5.4, only can move up and down along screw rod 6 axis direction, thus reliability when ensure that compression and release air bellow.
See Fig. 5, the suspension system of car load adopts four air bellows of the present invention, is arranged on four wheels respectively by four of four air bellows electrical motors 8, by four electrical motors 8 by wire connecting power and controller 12 action.The signal that controller 12 utilizes car speed sensor 13 to transmit matches with the air spring rigidity value preset, the air bellow internal pressure that under finding this speed of a motor vehicle operating mode, required rigidity is corresponding.Carry out spacing to the lifting travel of straight gear 5.4 in advance, the top dead point 6b of regulation screw rod 6 and bottom dead point 6a, with bottom dead point 6a for initial position.The internal pressure of air bag 2 in air bellow is monitored by pressure sensor 14, controller 12 receives and processes the signal that car speed sensor 13 transmits, and match with the data prestored, the air spring rigidity that different speed of a motor vehicle road conditions are corresponding different, controller 12 or can control separately the forward or reverse of four electrical motors 8 simultaneously.When the internal pressure of the air bag 2 that pressure sensor 14 monitors reaches pairing pressure, controller 12 simultaneously or make separately four electrical motors 8 stop action, thus can obtain the air spring rigidity that needs.Be specially, when entering high speed from low speed, controller 12 receives the signal that process car speed sensor 13 transmits, when being necessary to increase air spring rigidity, controller 12 is connected electrical motor 8 and is rotated forward, electrical motor 8 drive straight gear 5.4 rotate forward lifting along screw rod 6, the annulus bracket 4 that simultaneously leads also moves up along grooved guide rail 10 with electrical motor 8 under the effect of track adjusting wheel 9, air bag sets off 3 and is subject to straight gear 5.4 and acts on upwardly air bag 2, rigidity increases gradually, during arrival top dead point 6b, electrical motor 8 must stop action, and now air spring rigidity is maximum.When entering low speed from high speed, controller 12 receives and processes the signal that car speed sensor 13 transmits, when being necessary to reduce air spring rigidity, controller 12 is oppositely connected electrical motor 8 and is reversed, electrical motor 8 drives straight gear 5.4 to decline along screw rod 6 reversion, the annulus bracket 4 that simultaneously leads also moves down along grooved guide rail 10 with electrical motor 8 under the effect of track adjusting wheel 9, air bag sets off 3 release air bags 2 gradually, but contact with air bag 2 all the time, rigidity reduces gradually, during arrival bottom dead point 6a, electrical motor 8 must stop action, and now air spring rigidity is minimum.
If be equipped with different control policies, except changing except air spring rigidity under the different speed of a motor vehicle, multiple different control effects can also be obtained, such as improve front-wheel air spring rigidity when braking and can obtain better earth-grasping force, improve air spring rigidity in outboard wheels when turning to and can obtain good turning efficiency.
For the different speed of a motor vehicle and road conditions, due to Real-Time Monitoring can be carried out by car speed sensor 13 pairs of speed of a motor vehicle, therefore vehicle can be made to utilize controller 12 to change the rigidity of each air bellow on one's own initiative according to the quality travelling road conditions, reach the requirement improving vehicle ride comfort and handling stability.
