Description

Damping shock absorber, washing machine with same and control method
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a damper, and more particularly, to a damping damper and a washing machine equipped with the same.
Background
The existing drum type washing machine includes a housing forming an external appearance; a washing drum arranged in the casing for storing washing water; a drum rotatably disposed in the washing tub and used for washing and dehydrating laundry; a driving motor disposed at the rear of the washing drum and connected to the rotation shaft of the drum. A door through which laundry is put in or taken out is rotatably provided at a front surface of the casing, and a bracket for supporting a rotation shaft of the drum is provided at a rear of the washing tub. The spring is fixed to the housing at an upper portion of the washing tub, and the damper for damping vibration transmitted from the drum to the washing tub is provided at a lower portion of the washing tub.
The existing shock absorber which is relatively mature in application is a friction strip type damping shock absorber, wherein a friction strip is arranged on a movable rod of the shock absorber, and the damping acting force is provided by utilizing the sliding friction generated by the friction strip in a fixed stroke of the shock absorber. However, when the free stroke of the friction strip is too large and the washing machine is in a low rotating speed stage, the damper may not give enough friction force; when the free stroke of the friction strip is too small and the washing machine is in a high-speed stage, the damper may still provide friction force, so that excessive vibration is transmitted to the washing machine box body. And because the free stroke of the damper is fixed, the dampers with different free strokes cannot be commonly used on washing machine equipment with different models.
In view of the above, the present invention is particularly proposed.
Disclosure of Invention
A first object of the present invention is to provide a damping shock absorber to achieve the purpose of providing a variable damping shock absorbing force. In order to realize the purpose of the invention, the following technical scheme is adopted:
a damped shock absorber, comprising: a support sleeve; the movable rod is correspondingly inserted into the supporting sleeve and can move in a telescopic way along the axial direction of the supporting sleeve; the friction strip is arranged in the supporting sleeve and is in contact with the outer wall of the movable rod; the upper side and the lower side of the friction strip along the moving direction of the movable rod are respectively provided with a limiting ring; the piston cylinder structure comprises a piston cylinder with adjustable internal pressure, and a telescopic piston rod penetrating through the piston cylinder; the end part of the piston rod penetrating out of the piston cylinder is connected with the limiting ring, and the internal pressure of the piston cylinder is adjusted, so that the limiting ring is fixed to limit the friction strip to move or the limiting ring freely moves along with the friction strip.
Further, the piston cylinder is connected with an air pump through a pipeline, the air pressure in the piston cylinder is adjusted through the air pump, and after the pressure in the piston cylinder reaches a set value, the pressure borne by the piston overcomes the friction force between the movable rod and the friction strip to keep the limiting ring static;
preferably, one end of the piston rod, which is positioned in the piston cylinder, is provided with a piston for covering the section of the piston cylinder, and the communication position of the pipeline and the piston cylinder is positioned between the piston and the penetrating position of the piston rod from the piston cylinder.
Furthermore, the upper end and the lower end of the piston cylinder respectively penetrate through a piston rod, the penetrating ends of the two piston rods are respectively provided with a piston, and the space between the two pistons and the corresponding piston rod penetrating positions is respectively connected with the same air pump through a branch pipeline, so that the air pressure at the piston positions of the two piston rods is balanced.
Furthermore, the upper and lower spacing rings are respectively connected with the piston rod penetrating ends of the corresponding piston cylinder structures, and the piston cylinders of the two piston cylinder structures are communicated with the same or corresponding air pumps through pipelines.
Furthermore, the piston cylinder is fixedly arranged on the supporting sleeve through a fixing rod, and when the pressure in the piston cylinder is at atmospheric pressure, the two limiting rings are correspondingly connected with the friction strips in the middle of the supporting sleeve respectively.
Furthermore, the piston cylinder structure also comprises a release valve which can be opened and closed and is arranged on a pipeline connected between the piston cylinder and the air pump so as to flow out the gas in the piston cylinder and reduce the pressure in the cylinder after the release valve is opened.
Furthermore, a spring is clamped between end pistons of the two piston rods in the piston cylinder, the spring is arranged along the vertical extension direction of the piston cylinder, and two ends of the spring are respectively connected with the corresponding side pistons so as to enable the friction strips to be kept at a constant position under the action of the spring when the friction strips are not moved relative to the support sleeve; preferably, when the friction strip is in a constant position, the center of the spring and the center of the friction strip moving space are in the same height section; further preferably, the spring center is fixedly connected with the piston cylinder.
Furthermore, in the telescopic moving direction of the movable rod, the moving distance of the piston in the piston cylinder is greater than that of the friction strip in the support sleeve.
Furthermore, the friction strip is of a cylindrical structure sleeved on the outer periphery of the movable rod, and the inner periphery of the cylindrical friction strip is in contact with the outer wall of the movable rod.
Furthermore, the supporting sleeve is provided with a radially protruding supporting cavity, the friction strip is correspondingly arranged in the supporting cavity, and two opposite sides of the friction strip are respectively provided with a limiting ring; the limiting ring is positioned in the supporting cavity, the inner circumference of the limiting ring is smaller than the outer circumference of the friction strip, and the outer circumference of the limiting ring is larger than the outer circumference of the friction strip, so that the limiting ring applies a blocking acting force to the friction strip, and limits or moves together.
The shock absorber in the prior art generally has constant damping for reciprocating motion, and although the shock absorber can play a certain damping role, the damping value cannot be changed in real time, so that the requirements of different working conditions generated by various loads and different dehydration processes of high speed and low speed on damping force cannot be met. Like a shock absorber for a washing machine, because the cylinder body of the shock absorber does linear motion up and down along the movable rod in the operation process of the washing machine. When the washing machine rotates at a stable high speed, the normal operation of the washing machine can be met only by providing a small damping and shock absorbing force, and the situation that the outer barrel shakes and is conducted onto the washing machine box body to cause the continuous shaking of the whole machine can be effectively avoided. When the washing machine rotates at a low speed with larger amplitude, a larger damping force needs to be provided to meet the requirement of effective damping support of the outer cylinder of the washing machine, so that the situation that the larger amplitude vibration of the outer cylinder is directly transmitted to the box body to cause the direct displacement of the whole machine is avoided.
The damping shock absorber in this application has directly overcome above-mentioned problem, has possessed following remarkable technological progress simultaneously:
1. through the arrangement, the internal pressure of the piston cylinder can be adjusted to adjust the supporting force of the friction strip, so that the aim of providing damping adjustable damping force for the movable rod of the damping shock absorber is fulfilled.
2. The limiting rings are arranged in the damping shock absorber supporting sleeve along the telescopic direction of the movable rod and on two sides of the friction strip respectively, and the limiting rings are connected with the movable rod end of the adjustable air pressure piston cylinder, so that the friction strip is kept at a relative fixed position with the supporting sleeve under the limiting action of the piston cylinder, the friction strip is further locked or freely switched in the supporting sleeve, and the aim that the damping shock absorber is provided with multiple using modes is fulfilled.
3. The piston cylinder is connected with the air pump through a pipeline, and the openable exhaust valve is arranged on the communicating pipeline, so that the air pressure in the piston cylinder can be pressurized under the action of the air pump and decompressed under the action of the exhaust valve, and the purposes of automatically adjusting the internal pressure of the piston cylinder and changing the damping force of the damping shock absorber are further achieved.
The second purpose of the present invention is to provide a washing machine equipped with the above-mentioned shock absorber, which specifically adopts the following technical scheme:
the washing machine provided with the damping shock absorber has the following specific working process:
when the outer barrel of the washing machine needs to provide a large damping acting force, the air pump injects compressed air into the piston cylinder of the damping shock absorber, so that the pressure in the piston cylinder reaches a set air pressure value, the friction strip is blocked by the limiting rings on the two sides and is in a relatively fixed state, and the damping acting force is provided for the movable rod when the movable rod generates axial telescopic displacement.
When the outer drum of the washing machine only needs small damping acting force or does not need the damping acting force, the piston cylinder of the damping shock absorber is deflated to normal pressure, the limiting ring loses the supporting acting force and is in a free state, and the friction strip moves together with the movable rod, so that when the movable rod generates axial telescopic displacement, the minimum damping acting force is not provided for the movable rod or only is provided for the movable rod.
In addition, because the air pressure value in the internal piston cylinder of the damping shock absorber can be adjusted at will, the stroke of the movable rod of the damping shock absorber can be adjusted freely, the damping shock absorber can be universal on different types of washing machines, the running stability of the washing machine when the inner cylinder rotates at high speed can be further met, and the vibration resistance of the whole machine is improved.
The third objective of the present invention is to provide a control method applied to the above washing machine, which specifically adopts the following technical solutions:
when the inner cylinder is in a low-rotation-speed stage in the dehydration process of the washing machine, controlling a deflation valve of the damping shock absorber to be in a closed state, and controlling the air pump to flow gas into the piston cylinder until the pressure in the piston cylinder reaches a set value; when the inner cylinder is in a high rotating speed stage, the air release valve of the damping shock absorber is controlled to be in an open state, the air pump stops blowing air flow into the piston cylinder, and the piston cylinder is deflated until the internal air pressure is equal to the atmospheric air.
By adopting the technical scheme, compared with the prior art, the invention has the advantages that:
the damping shock absorber is simple in structure, but can change the damping size according to the damping requirement in a targeted manner, and the damping-variable shock absorber is preferably used for a washing machine, is not limited to the washing machine, and can also be applied to other structures which need to obtain different damping according to different motion directions of a piston, such as reciprocating vibration working systems of piston engines, air compressors, tamping machines and the like. More particularly, the damper of the invention can also automatically adjust the damping force by utilizing the self telescopic displacement of the damping damper when vibrating greatly at low frequency, thereby greatly improving the resonance of the shell of the washing machine when the washing machine operates and being more beneficial to maintaining the stability of the washing machine. In addition, because the air pressure value in the internal piston cylinder of the damping shock absorber can be adjusted at will, the stroke of the movable rod of the damping shock absorber can be adjusted freely, the damping shock absorber can be universal on different types of washing machines, the running stability of the washing machine when the inner cylinder rotates at high speed can be further met, and the vibration resistance of the whole machine is improved.
In addition, two pistons are arranged in a single piston cylinder, and the two pistons are connected through a spring, so that the two pistons can be pulled by the spring to reset to a relatively fixed initial position after losing the extrusion acting force of compressed gas pumped into the air pump; more preferably, the middle part of the spring is connected with the center of the piston cylinder, so that the initial position of the piston which is pulled by the spring to reset is kept relatively constant with the piston cylinder, and the friction strip is shifted by the reset limiting ring to be kept in the middle of the support cavity which has downward movement allowance.
Meanwhile, the invention has simple structure, simple method and obvious effect and is suitable for popularization and use.

In this embodiment, the specific working process of the damping shock absorber is as follows:
when the outer barrel of the washing machine needs to provide a large damping acting force, compressed gas is injected into a piston cylinder of the damping shock absorber, so that the pressure in the piston cylinder reaches a set air pressure value, the limiting rings are supported by the air pressure in the piston cylinder and are fixedly positioned, and the friction strips are supported by the limiting rings on the two sides and are in a relatively fixed state, so that the damping acting force is provided for the movable rod 2 when the movable rod generates axial telescopic displacement.
When the outer drum of the washing machine only needs small damping force or does not need damping acting force, the piston cylinder of the damping shock absorber is deflated to normal pressure, so that the limiting ring is in a free state without being supported; the friction strip is not blocked by the limiting ring any longer, and when the movable rod 2 generates axial telescopic displacement, the friction strip moves together with the movable rod, and the friction strip does not provide damping force or only provides minimum damping force for the friction strip.
In addition, because the atmospheric pressure value in the inside piston cylinder of damping bumper shock absorber in this application can be adjusted at will for 2 strokes of movable rod of damping bumper shock absorber can realize freely adjusting, and then guaranteed that the damping bumper shock absorber in this application can carry out the commonality on different model washing machines, but also can satisfy the stability of washing machine operation when inner drum high-speed rotation, improve the shock resistance of complete machine.
In the embodiment, the control method of the washing machine is also introduced, when the inner cylinder is in a low-rotation-speed stage in the dewatering process of the washing machine, the exhaust valve 8 of the damping shock absorber is controlled to be in a closed state, and the air pump 7 flows air into the piston cylinder until the pressure in the piston cylinder reaches a set value; when the inner cylinder rotates at a high rotating speed stage, the exhaust valve 8 is controlled to be in an open state, the air pump 7 stops blowing air flow into the piston cylinder, and the piston cylinder is deflated until the internal air pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure.
The specific process is as follows:
the control logic of the damper exhaust valve 8 in the dehydration process of the washing machine in the embodiment is as follows:
1. after the washing machine stops working, the air pump 7 stops working, the exhaust port is opened, the limiting ring in the damping shock absorber is in a free state and is kept in an initial state under the action of the spring, and the friction strip is limited in the center of the supporting cavity;
2. when the washing machine is electrified and starts to work, the exhaust port is closed, the air pump 7 supplies power to inject compressed air flow into the piston cylinder until the inside of the piston cylinder reaches a set value, and the limiting ring is kept stationary under the action of compressed air pressure; the friction strips 3 in the damping shock absorber are limited by the limiting rings at the two sides and are fixed in the supporting sleeve 1, and the movable rod 2 provides supporting force for the outer cylinder of the washing machine by the friction force provided by the friction strips 3;
3. when the washing machine starts to dewater and the rotating speed of the inner cylinder is in a low-speed stage, controlling an exhaust valve 8 of the damping shock absorber to be in a closed state, sealing a piston cylinder of the damping shock absorber, injecting compressed gas into the piston cylinder of the damping shock absorber by an air pump 7, enabling the pressure in the piston cylinder to reach a set air pressure value, enabling the friction strips to be supported by the limiting rings on the two sides and to be in a relatively fixed state, and providing a larger damping acting force for ensuring the normal operation of the washing machine when the movable rod 2 generates axial telescopic displacement; at the moment, the shock absorber is in a common friction damping type shock absorber state, the movable rod 2 and the friction strip 3 can rub against each other to generate damping force to block the vibration of the outer cylinder;
4. when the washing machine starts to dewater and the rotating speed of the inner cylinder rises to reach a high rotating speed stage, the exhaust valve 8 is controlled to be in a full-open state, at the moment, gas in a piston cylinder of the damping shock absorber is quickly exhausted, the piston cylinder of the damping shock absorber is deflated to normal pressure, the limiting ring loses the supporting force and is in a free state, and the friction strip is not subjected to the supporting acting force of the limiting ring and is in a free state, so that when the movable rod 2 generates axial telescopic displacement, the minimum damping acting force is not provided for the movable rod or only is provided for the movable rod; at the moment, the damper is equivalent to a free-running type damper, and the friction strip, the sliding block and the movable rod can freely slide relative to the supporting sleeve as a whole, so that small-amplitude vibration of the outer cylinder can not be transmitted to the box body of the washing machine, the vibration of the box body in the high-speed rotation process of the inner cylinder is weakened, and the use experience of a user is improved.
Simultaneously, the piston cylinder of installation is in the ordinary pressure state after the gassing in the damping bumper shock absorber in this application for the flexible displacement of movable rod 2 can reach the maximum limit of damping bumper shock absorber, and then makes the damping bumper shock absorber in this application can completely with the washing machine phase-match of various models, classification, in order to satisfy the high-speed rotation stage of washing machine inner tube to the demand of free stroke volume.
