Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent a quick diameter change near a closing member when a pressurized fluid is introduced and reduce an energy loss by devising the diameter of a closing member and largely holding and sealing the diameter near both end openings of an elastic shrinking body with this closing member. CONSTITUTION:An elastic shrinking body is provided with a braided reinforcing structure 2 such as organic or inorganic high-tension fibers on the outer periphery of a rubber-like tubular body 1 to perform a uniform pantograph motion. On the other hand, each closing member 10 is provided with an expanded portion 11 with a gradually increasing diameter and a column portion 12 with the same diameter as that of the expanded portion 11 in sequence toward the outside in the axial direction of the tubular body 1. Then, the opening end of the tubular body is inserted into the expanded portion 11 of this closing member 10, and this opening end is expanded to 1.10-1.50 times the central portion of the tubular body 1 to hold and seal the tubular body 1.

One of the closing members 3 is bored on at least one side with a connecting hole 8 which communicates with the internal cavity 7 of the tubular body 1 through a hole 6 formed in its length, in which a fitting 9 is mounted. The fitting 9 is connected to an operating pressure source (not shown), such as an air compressor, by a conduit containing a flow control valve, and the braided reinforcement structure 2 is braided by applying a controlled pressure within the internal cavity 7 of the tubular body 1. The enlargement of the angle, that is, the pantograph movement, brings about the expanded diameter of the tubular body 1 and the consequent contraction in the axial direction, that is, the distance between the connecting pin holes of the closure member 3.

Therefore, in this curved part, the tension acting on each fiber that makes up the braided reinforcement structure is different, making it impossible to perform a uniform pantograph movement, and the energy of the pressurized fluid cannot be used efficiently for work. There was a problem. In addition, the braided reinforcement structure is prone to breakage, and as schematically shown in Figure 6, the tubular body locally protrudes radially outward from the breakage portion near the closure member. There was a problem that the tubular body was easily damaged.

(Function) According to this closing member, the center diameter of the braided reinforcing structure in the cylindrical portion is larger than the diameter of the braided reinforcing structure in the central part of the tubular body before pressurized fluid is applied, preferably 1.10 to 1.10.
Since it is expanded by 1.30 times, the influence of the curved part near each closing member of the elastic contracting body when pressurized fluid is applied to expand and deform the diameter is reduced, and the energy can be used efficiently. can. Moreover, since the tubular body and the braided reinforcing structure are expanded along the enlarged portion where the diameter gradually increases, when one closing member is inserted into the openings at both ends of the tubular body, the axis of each closing member is substantially It becomes easy to align them on the same straight line, and it is possible to prevent a decrease in the fatigue life and contractile force of the elastic contractile body due to deviation of these axes from each other.

The hooking part 17 has a diameter approximately equal to 4, and the second a15b
, and a second protrusion 16b. These first and second grooves 15a and 16b are for accommodating adhesive, and the adhesive accommodated in the first groove 15a is distributed along the enlarged portion 11 and the sealing portion 14 into the first groove. The adhesive material stored in the second a 15b at the opening edge of the tubular body 1 that extends to the protrusion 16a extends outward in the axial direction beyond the opening edge of the tubular body to the second protrusion 16b. Braided reinforcement structure 2
The edges of each are glued to the closure member 10. As the adhesive, for example, if the closing member is integrally formed of mild steel, an alpha diacrylate adhesive, for example, may be used, which ensures firm adhesion between the closing member and the tubular body made of rubber or rubber-like elastic material. However, it should be selected appropriately depending on the material. Furthermore, by making these grooves circular, not only can a certain amount of adhesive be reliably accommodated, but also the width can be maintained approximately constant for each closure member, allowing individual products to be easily accommodated. performance variations can be reduced. As described above, the first and second protrusions 16a and 16b respectively abut against each end surface of the tubular weight and the braided reinforcing structure 2 to define their insertion lengths, and when the crimping cap is crimped. The first protrusion 16a more firmly holds the braided reinforcing structure 2 together with the caulking cap, and the second protrusion functions as a guide member. Figure 1 (

The diameter of the cylindrical portion of such a closing member is varied, and the diameter of the braided reinforcement structure at the center of the tubular body is varied.
The ratio of the central diameter of the braided reinforcement structure in the cylindrical part, that is, the expansion ratio, and the elastic contractile body using the closure member of the present invention with respect to the contractile force generated in the conventional elastic contractile body when pressurized fluid is applied. The relationship between the contraction force ratio, that is, the contraction force ratio, was determined through experiments. An example of this result is shown in FIG. The elastic contraction body used at this time had a tubular inner diameter of 1
It is made of synthetic rubber with a diameter of 2φ and an external diameter of 14φ, while the wire reinforcement structure is made by braiding twisted yarns of polyester fibers.

As is clear from this figure, the enlargement ratio K is 1.10 to 1.
.. 5, more preferably 1. It can be seen that by selecting the IQ in the range of -1.30, the contractile force can be improved. In particular, when the contraction rate of the elastic contraction body is 20%, the contraction force is more than 1.5 times that of the elastic contraction body using a conventional closing member when the expansion ratio is 1.3. It can be seen that the amount increases. Note that the contractile force can be similarly increased by setting the expansion ratio K to be larger than 1.30, but as the ratio becomes larger, the work of inserting the tubular body and the braided reinforcement structure into the closure member becomes difficult. Therefore, it is advantageous to select the enlargement ratio within the range of 1.10 to 1.30 as described above.

(Effects of the Invention) As detailed above, according to the closing member of the present invention, the diameter near the openings at both ends of the tubular body whose outer periphery is covered with the braided reinforcement structure is reduced by the braided reinforcement at the center of the tubular body. By holding the structure larger than the center diameter and sealing it, it is possible to prevent a sudden change in diameter near the closing member when pressurized fluid is applied, and the pressurized fluid caused by this diameter change can be prevented. It is possible to reduce the energy loss of the system and efficiently convert that energy into work. Moreover, the enlarged part is
Since one end is approximately equal to the inner diameter of the tubular body and its diameter gradually increases, it is not only easy to insert the tubular body into the closing member, but also the axes of the closing members inserted at both ends of the tubular body are aligned with each other. To obtain an elastic contractile body having excellent durability because it does not deflect.
