Summary of the invention
Therefore, task of the present invention is, improve above-mentioned vibration damper or clutch operating device, wherein, especially will provide a kind of vibration damper for the hydraulic vibration in the liquid of damping pressure pipeline, this vibration damper has simple structural type and has high working stability.In addition, task of the present invention is, provides a kind of vibration damper, but by the wider frequency spectrum of this vibration damper damping.
This problem solves by a kind of vibration damper, this vibration damper is used for the damping pressure pipeline, especially the hydraulic vibration of the active cylinder of clutch operating device and the liquid in the pressure piping between the slave cylinder, wherein, this vibration damper comprises a chamber, two joint and damper structure bodies that are arranged on the chamber that are used for the Bonding pressure pipeline, wherein, these joints are arranged on the chamber, thus, the chamber can be connected in series with pressure piping, this damper structure body branches out at least one from this main passage and releases passage having a main passage on the longitudinal direction in chamber between these two joints.At this, be arranged in the chamber and mean: the damper structure body is received in inside, chamber fully.Preferred damper structure body is constructed like this: so that this damper structure body is filled with in the chamber in the working state of liquid fully by Breakup of Liquid Ring around washing away.This is normal working state, for example comprises that the system that is used for operated clutch of pressure piping is in the state of the work of being ready to this moment.The main passage preferably is in the inside of damper structure body, and in other words, this main passage is not arranged on the edge of damper structure body.Releasing passage preferably branches out from the main passage diametrically or basically diametrically.Releasing passage can be the blind passage that releases, and in other words, releasing passage is not to be connected with other volume; Perhaps releasing passage can be connected with other volume.But in the case, this volume also is arranged on inside, chamber.The invention provides the simple especially advantage of structure.Another advantage is that locational requirement is lower, because vibration damper can in series be installed in the pressure piping.In addition, vibration damper can be installed in the pressure piping in any one direction, makes thus assembling easily.
Preferred damper structure body has such size and is arranged on like this in the chamber: so that between the wall in chamber and damper structure body fringe region of formation.This fringe region forms a volume, has liquid in normal working state in this volume.Preferred this release passage or in a plurality of situations of releasing passage these to release passage be the main passage with fringe region between unique the connection.Simple helmholtz resonator is provided in this way.
In favourable form of implementation, the chamber comprises an elastic member.Main relevant with the elastic characteristic in chamber with the resonant frequency of the helmholtz resonator of chamber formation by having the damper structure body that releases passage.Can change resonant frequency or additional resonant frequency can be provided by one or more additional elastic members are set in the wall in inside, chamber or chamber, in order to widen the frequency range of damping.Can realize that by adaptive elastic characteristic and size of especially releasing passage the given frequency of the vibration in this resonant frequency or these resonant frequencies and the pressure piping is suitable.Resonant frequency is advantageously by the rigidity in the adaptive volume that releases the diameter of passage, the length of releasing passage, liquid, chamber or by selecting elastic member suitable with the damped frequency of expectation.
Advantageously, liquid can flow at the longitudinal direction in chamber in the edge region.This provides advantage: fringe region can be connected with one of joint.Thus, one of at least being in direct liquid and being connected in preferred fringe region and these two joints.Form a through flow cross section at the edge in chamber in this way, this through flow cross section can be used for liquid being transported to the damper structure body or discharging from this damper structure body.
Release passage and advantageously generate being connected between main passage and the fringe region.Can form a helmholtz resonator by releasing passage and fringe region volume in this way, wherein, advantage is: whole device is received in inside, chamber, guarantees thus high functional reliability.In addition, obtain in this way the compact structure form.
Chamber or damper structure body are advantageously columned.Both columned such as fruit caving and damper structure body, then obtain special advantage, because obtain in this way simple and compact structure.
Being in inner main passage, damper structure body and chamber preferably arranges with one heart.This also is applicable to fringe region, and this fringe region preferably also arranges with described feature with one heart.This provides structural type compact especially and the advantage of resistivity arranged.
Preferred main passage is being configured to run through on the longitudinal direction in chamber between these two joints.In the situation of columned chamber and columned damper structure body, obtain in this way having the concentric structure of the main passage that is in the center, wherein, these of damper structure body release passage, and maybe this releases passage and radially arranges around the main passage.
Preferred main passage is intercepted in a longitudinal direction by a baffling device.In other words, joint does not advantageously directly connect by the main passage.Realize in this way: liquid and pressure wave vibration can only or basically arrive another joint by releasing passage from a joint.For this reason, the main passage is connected with fringe region by releasing passage.Fringe region now can or directly on an end in chamber with or not be not in direct-connected joint the main passage and be connected.Fringe region and can provide in an end in chamber direct for example connection the between the joint, its mode are that the damper structure body arranges and structure like this: so that this damper structure body does not meet the boundary with the end wall that this joint wherein is set.Another possibility is: the liquid connection from fringe region to another joint also extends through releases passage.This for example can realize like this: use the damper structure body with the main passage that is in the center, wherein, the damper structure body has a plurality of passages that release, and these release passage and branch out from the main passage diametrically and be connected with fringe region.By for example center between two joints or basically the baffling device of the main passage at center realize: liquid only connects can be by releasing passage and through fringe region and return again in the another part that enters the main passage by releasing passage.Realize in this way especially effectively vibration damping, this vibration damping is because by the different cross section in the path of vibration damper and highway section situation but wide band.
Preferably constructing in the radial direction a plurality of passages that release from the main passage.The advantage that this provides the pressure wave that releases in the passage to receive with being diffused, thus, the pressure wave with wide spectrum can be absorbed.Preferably all or basically all releasing passage is connected with fringe region.
Advantageously with honeycomb go out a plurality of from the main passage at the extended passage that releases in the radial direction.Cellular structure is made of the hexagonal passage that releases, and these hexagonal passages that release directly recline each other mutually, thus, limits a wall that releases the border of passage and also limits the border that another releases passage.These are only different on the edge of damper structure body, and on this edge, a wall that releases passage also is border rather than another border of releasing passage of damper structure body simultaneously.The baffling device of main passage can be constructed like this: so that this baffling device makes whole damper structure body seal in an end of damper structure body as dish, thus, the main passage is also at Central Closed.Dish this aspect diameter or the cross section less than the inner room in chamber, in order to be provided to connection in the fringe region at the edge.Dish is therefore preferred not to be stopped with the inwall in chamber.In addition, dish is spaced apart with the end wall in chamber, can realize that thus the joint from be arranged on end wall connects to the liquid of fringe region.Cellular structure has in the concentric situation of the structure in damper structure body and chamber and is the funnelform hexagonal passage that releases around the main passage.Funnel shaped is take the cylindrical shape of damper structure body as condition.When leaving the quantity of releasing passage of main passage towards the fringe region direction and keep identical, cross section keeps in the identical situation to increasing aspect external its size, in order to form cylindrical shape at wall thickness.Use cellular structure can realize simple especially manufacturing and the special stable structure of damper structure body.
Another independent theme of the present invention is clutch operating device, and this clutch operating device has the vibration damper in the pressure piping of being arranged on that an active cylinder, slave cylinder, make one of pressure piping that active cylinder is connected with slave cylinder and an above-mentioned preferred implementing form.The vibration that this clutch operating device provides clutch operating device inside is by effectively and the advantage of reliable operation ground damping.
