- Actuating cylinders usually include hydraulic cylinders and air cylinders, and are applied widely. For example, concrete pumping apparatuses (e.g., concrete pump trucks) usually have a hydraulic cylinder to drive a concrete cylinder to reciprocate and thereby deliver concrete. Presently, in concrete applications, more and more concrete delivery work is accomplished with concrete pump trucks. As the rapid development of the concrete machinery technology, it is required to deliver concrete to higher and farther locations in engineering work, and the materials for components of concrete machinery (e.g., boom, hydraulic cylinder, etc.) are developed towards a trend of light weight and high strength. The cylinder body of any existing hydraulic cylinder is made of alloy steel material solely. Owing to the high density of alloy steel, the self-weight of the hydraulic cylinder is high; therefore, the boom length of the concrete pump truck is severely limited, and the development of concrete pump trucks is limited. It is of great significance to develop a cylinder body of a hydraulic cylinder that can meet the strength requirement of concrete pump trucks and is light in weight, so as to extend the boom length of concrete pump trucks. In addition, the cylinder body of an actuating cylinder made of alloy steel solely has drawbacks such as low fatigue resistance, low corrosion resistance and high thermal expansibility, which limit the application of the actuating cylinder.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a cylinder body of an actuating cylinder, which has high strength, light weight, high fatigue resistance, high corrosion resistance and low thermal expansibility, to widen the application range of the actuating cylinder. Another object of the present invention is to provide a method of manufacturing the cylinder body of an actuating cylinder.
- To attain the above objects, in an aspect, the present invention provides a cylinder body of an actuating cylinder, which comprises an inner lining layer and a first fibrous composite layer bonded on the outside of the inner lining layer, wherein, the first fibrous composite layer is composited from a first fibrous material and a substrate resin material.
- In another aspect, the present invention provides a concrete pumping apparatus, wherein, a cylinder body of a pumping cylinder of the concrete pumping apparatus is the cylinder body of an actuating cylinder described above.
- In another aspect, the present invention provides a method of manufacturing a cylinder body of an actuating cylinder, comprising: an inner lining layer forming step: forming an inner lining layer; and, a bonding step: forming a first fibrous composite layer with a first fibrous material and a substrate resin material and bonding the first fibrous composite layer on the outside of the inner lining layer.
- In the above technical scheme, the cylinder body of an actuating cylinder comprises an inner lining layer and a first fibrous composite layer; owing to the fact that the fibrous composite has lighter weight when compared with existing metallic materials with the same strength as well as has high fatigue resistance, high corrosion resistance and low thermal expansibility, the cylinder body of an actuating cylinder has high strength, light weight, high fatigue resistance, high corrosion resistance and low thermal expansibility; therefore, the actuating cylinder can be applied more widely. In addition, since the inner lining layer of the cylinder body can meet the requirements for leak tightness of the inner wall of the cylinder body and wear resistance when contacts with the piston, the service performance of the cylinder body will not be degraded. Other characteristics and advantages of the present invention will be further detailed in the embodiments hereunder.

They are used together with the following embodiments to explain the present invention, but shall not be comprehended as constituting any limitation to the present invention. Among the drawings:

It should be appreciated that the embodiments described here are only provided to describe and explain the present invention, but shall not be deemed as constituting any limitation to the present invention. As shown in
Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in an embodiment, the present invention provides a cylinder body of an actuating cylinder, which comprises an inner lining layer 1 and a first fibrouscomposite layer 2 bonded on the outside of the inner lining layer 1. - In the above technical scheme, the cylinder body of an actuating cylinder comprises an inner lining layer 1 and a first fibrous
composite layer 2; owing to the fact that the fibrous composite has lighter weight when compared with existing metallic materials with the same strength as well as has high fatigue resistance, high corrosion resistance and low thermal expansibility, the cylinder body of an actuating cylinder has high strength, light weight, high fatigue resistance, high corrosion resistance and low thermal expansibility; therefore, the actuating cylinder can be applied more widely. In addition, since the inner lining layer of the cylinder body can meet the requirements for leak tightness of the inner wall of cylinder body and wear resistance when contacts with the piston, the service performance of the cylinder body will not be degraded. The inner lining layer 1 may be made of an appropriate material that can meet the requirements for leak tightness of the inner wall of cylinder body and wear resistance when contacts with the piston; for example, the inner lining layer 1 may be made of an existing metallic material that is usually used to manufacture a cylinder body. - The fibrous composite material mentioned in the present invention (e.g., the fibrous composite material of the first fibrous
composite layer 2 or second fibrous composite layer 4) refers to a material composited from a fibrous material and a substrate resin material, i.e., a fiber reinforced resin composite material. - The first
fibrous composite layer 2 may be composited from any appropriate fibrous material and substrate resin material; for example, the fibrous material may be selected from one or more of fiber glass, aramid fiber, super-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber and carbon fiber. Preferably, the firstfibrous composite layer 2 is made of a carbon fiber material and a substrate resin material. Carbon fiber composite materials have advantages such as light weight, high strength, high rigidity, high damping performance, high fatigue resistance, high corrosion resistance, etc. The carbon fiber material may be composited with a variety of substrate resin materials to form carbon fiber composite materials; for example, the substrate resin material may be unsaturated polyester, vinyl resin, phenolic resin, etc., preferably an epoxy resin system that has good machinability, high strength and high ductility. Among the fibrous materials that can be used to form the first fibrouscomposite layer 2, some are electroconductive materials, and others are non-electroconductive materials; in case the inner lining layer 1 and the first fibrouscomposite layer 2 are made of electroconductive materials (e.g., the inner lining layer 1 is made of a metallic material, and the first fibrous composite layer is made of a carbon fiber composite material), aninsulating layer 3 is preferably arranged between the inner lining layer 1 and the first fibrouscomposite layer 2. Thus, the electro-chemical corrosion between the inner lining layer 1 and the first fibrouscomposite layer 2 can be prevented, and the service life of the cylinder body of an actuating cylinder can be prolonged. The insulatinglayer 3 may be made of any appropriate insulating material; for example, it may be selected from one or more of fiber glass, aramid fiber, super-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber and basalt fiber. For example, theinsulating layer 3 may be bonded to the inner lining layer 1 by a high-toughness adhesive. - Preferably, as shown in
Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a second fibrous composite layer 4 is arranged on the outside of the firstfibrous composite layer 2. The second fibrous composite layer 4 is helpful for improving impact resistance of the cylinder body against external impacts. The second fibrous composite layer 4 may be composited from any appropriate fibrous material and substrate resin material; for example, the fibrous material may be selected from one or more of fiber glass, aramid fiber, super-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber and basalt fiber. The substrate resin material for the first fibrouscomposite layer 2 may be identical to or different from the substrate resin material for the second fibrous composite layer 4. - The present invention doesn't involve any change to the overall shape of the cylinder body of an actuating cylinder, which is to say, the overall shape of the cylinder body of an actuating cylinder may be identical to the overall shape of the cylinder body of any existing actuating cylinder; for example, the cylinder body of an actuating cylinder may be generally in a hollow cylinder structure, with connecting thread and/or an oil port arranged on both ends, wherein, the connecting thread is mainly designed to connect an end cap of the actuating cylinder, and the oil port is mainly designed to connect a working oil circuit of the actuating cylinder, so that the working oil circuit can communicate with a working chamber within the cylinder body. The main innovative ideal of the present invention lies in: the cylinder body comprises multiple material layers, so as to improve the strength, corrosion resistance and fatigue resistance of the cylinder body and decrease the weight and thermal expansibility of the cylinder body. The multiple material layers of the cylinder body (e.g., the above-mentioned inner lining layer 1, first fibrous
composite layer 2,insulating layer 3 and second fibrous composite layer 4) may have even thickness or uneven thickness respectively. Preferably, as shown inFigure 1∼3 , the inner lining layer 1 is generally in a cylindrical shape, and comprises amiddle part 11 and twoend parts 12 at the sides of themiddle part 11, wherein, the thickness of themiddle part 11 is smaller than the thickness of eachend part 12. Themiddle part 11 and twoend parts 12 are arranged essentially along the axial direction of the cylinder body, and the inner lining layer 1 is essentially in a structure that is bigger at both ends and smaller in the middle, which is helpful for processing and port arrangement, and provides fixing effect for the fibrous composite material formed on the outside of the twoend parts 12 and themiddle part 11. - More preferably, a
transition part 13 is arranged between eachend part 12 and themiddle part 11, and the thickness of thetransition part 13 transits from the thickness of theend part 12 to the thickness of themiddle part 11. With thetransition part 13, stress concentration incurred by abrupt change of thickness can be prevented. - Preferably, an oil port and/or connecting thread is/are arranged on the
end parts 12 of the inner lining layer 1, and the first fibrouscomposite layer 2 is arranged on the outside of themiddle part 11 andtransition part 13 of the inner lining layer 1. Thus, the oil port and/or connecting thread of the cylinder body can be pre-formed on theend parts 12 as required, and the oil part and/or connecting thread is/are not covered by the first fibrouscomposite layer 2, insulatinglayer 3 and second fibrous composite layer 4 (if any); therefore, the cylinder body has high machinability, and it is unnecessary to work out additional oil port and/or connecting thread on any other material layer (e.g., the first fibrouscomposite layer 2,insulating layer 3 and second fibrous composite layer 4) except for the inner lining layer 1. - The
transition part 13 may have a ramp profile with uniformly transiting thickness, or a staged profile with thickness transiting by stages, or any other appropriate profile. More preferably, as shown inFigure 1∼3 , thetransition part 13 comprises aramp part 131 and araised part 132 arranged on theramp part 131, wherein, the thickness of theramp part 131 transits uniformly from the thickness of theend part 12 to the thickness of themiddle part 11. The raisedpart 132 is helpful for bonding between the inner lining layer 1 and other material layers (e.g., the first fibrous composite layer 2) and improving the bonding force, and can prevent the inner lining layer 1 from separated from other material layers. Theraised part 132 may be one raised continuous ring or multiple raised continuous rings (one continuous ring as shown inFigure 3 ), or may be a plurality of discrete raised bars or raised ribs. - In another aspect, the present invention provides a concrete pumping apparatus, wherein, a cylinder body of a pumping cylinder of the concrete pumping apparatus is the cylinder body of an actuating cylinder described above.
- In another aspect, the present invention provides a method of manufacturing a cylinder body of an actuating cylinder, comprising: an inner lining layer forming step: forming an inner lining layer 1; and, a bonding step: forming a first fibrous
composite layer 2 with a first fibrous material and a substrate resin material and bonding the first fibrouscomposite layer 2 on the outside of the inner lining layer 1. - In the above technical scheme, the cylinder body of an actuating cylinder comprises an inner lining layer 1 and a first fibrous
composite layer 2; owing to the fact that the fibrous composite has lighter weight when compared with existing metallic materials with the same strength as well as has high fatigue resistance, high corrosion resistance and low thermal expansibility, the cylinder body of an actuating cylinder has high strength, light weight, high fatigue resistance, high corrosion resistance and low thermal expansibility; therefore, the actuating cylinder can be applied more widely. In addition, since the inner lining layer of the cylinder body can meet the requirements for leak tightness of the inner wall of cylinder body and wear resistance when contacts with the piston, the service performance of the cylinder body will not be degraded. The inner lining layer 1 may be made of an appropriate material that can meet the requirements for leak tightness of the inner wall of cylinder body and wear resistance when contacts with the piston; for example, the inner lining layer 1 may be made of an existing metallic material that is usually used to manufacture a cylinder body. - The first fibrous
composite layer 2 may be composited from any appropriate fibrous material and substrate resin material; for example, the fibrous material may be selected from one or more of fiber glass, aramid fiber, super-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber and carbon fiber. Preferably, in the bonding step, the first fibrouscomposite layer 2 is formed from a carbon fiber and a substrate resin. Carbon fiber composite materials have advantages such as light weight, high strength, high rigidity, high damping performance, high fatigue resistance, high corrosion resistance, etc. The carbon fiber material may be composited with a variety of substrate resin materials to form carbon fiber composite materials; for example, the substrate resin material may be unsaturated polyester, vinyl resin, phenolic resin, etc., preferably an epoxy resin system that has good machinability, high strength and high ductility. Among the fibrous materials that can be used to form the first fibrouscomposite layer 2, some are electroconductive materials, and others are non-electroconductive materials. Preferably, in the inner lining layer forming step, the inner lining layer 1 is formed from a electroconductive material (e.g., a metallic material, more specifically, 27SiMn); in the bonding step, the first fibrouscomposite layer 2 is formed from a electroconductive material (e.g., a carbon fiber composite material); in addition, the manufacturing method further comprises an insulating layer forming step: forming an insulatinglayer 3 on the outside of the inner lining layer 1 before the bonding step, so that the insulatinglayer 3 is arranged between the inner lining layer 1 and the first fibrouscomposite layer 2. Thus, the electro-chemical corrosion between the inner lining layer 1 and the first fibrouscomposite layer 2 can be prevented, and the service life of the cylinder body of an actuating cylinder can be prolonged. The insulatinglayer 3 may be made of any appropriate insulating material; for example, it may be selected from one or more of fiber glass, aramid fiber, super-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber and basalt fiber. For example, the insulating layer may be formed by wrapping a piece of fiber cloth (e.g., glass fiber cloth) on the outside of the inner lining layer 1. For example, the insulatinglayer 3 may be bonded to the inner lining layer 1 by a high-toughness adhesive. - The first fibrous composite layer may be formed and bonded in an appropriate manner; preferably, in the bonding step, a bundle of the first fibrous material dipped with the substrate resin is wound on the outside of the inner lining layer 1 by a wet winding process. Specifically, a bundle of continuous first fiber is dipped with prepared epoxy resin, and then wound to the fixed inner lining layer 1 through a winding guide head of a winding machine, so as to accomplish fiber winding. A product obtained by wet winding gives full play to the properties of the composite material; therefore, the product is afforded with required structural performance as far as possible, and the forming cost is low and the process is relatively simple.
- More preferably, when the bundle of the first fibrous composite material is wound, the angle between the extension direction of the bundle of the first fibrous composite material and the axial line of the cylinder body is 70°∼90°, i.e., the winding angle of the first fibrous composite material is 70°∼90°. Owing to the fact that the stress on the cylinder body in radial direction is usually 2-3 times of the stress on the cylinder body in circumferential direction, the wrapping angle is helpful for improving the radial strength of the cylinder body (i.e., improving the mechanical properties of the cylinder body) and reducing the overall thickness of the cylinder body, and thereby can provide favorable fatigue resistance performance for the cylinder body. Preferably, the manufacturing method further comprises: forming a second fibrous composite layer 4 on the outside of the first fibrous
composite layer 2. The second fibrous composite layer 4 is helpful for improving impact resistance of the cylinder body against external impacts. The second fibrous composite layer 4 may be composited from any appropriate fibrous material and substrate resin material; for example, the fibrous material may be selected from one or more of fiber glass, aramid fiber, super-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber and basalt fiber. For example, the second fibrous composite layer 4 may be formed by wrapping a piece of cloth made of a second fibrous material on the outside of the first fibrouscomposite layer 2 so as to make the substrate resin in the first fibrouscomposite layer 2 infiltrate into the cloth made of a second fibrous material. Of course, when the second fibrous composite layer 4 is formed, substrate resin may be added on the second fibrous material cloth additionally, instead of utilizing the substrate resin in the first fibrouscomposite layer 2. - The present invention doesn't involve any change to the overall shape of the cylinder body of an actuating cylinder, which is to say, the overall shape of the cylinder body of an actuating cylinder may be identical to the overall shape of the cylinder body of any existing actuating cylinder; for example, the cylinder body of an actuating cylinder may be generally in a hollow cylinder structure, with connecting thread and/or an oil port arranged on both ends. The main innovative ideal of the present invention lies in: the cylinder body comprises multiple material layers, so as to improve the strength, corrosion resistance and fatigue resistance of the cylinder body and decrease the weight and thermal expansibility of the cylinder body. The multiple material layers of the cylinder body (e.g., the above-mentioned inner lining layer 1, first fibrous
composite layer 2, insulatinglayer 3 and second fibrous composite layer 4) may have even thickness or uneven thickness respectively. Preferably, the inner lining layer forming step comprises: providing a blank of the inner lining layer that is generally in a hollow cylinder shape; and, a machining procedure: reducing the thickness of a part of the blank of the inner lining layer by machining (e.g., turning), so that the inner lining layer 1 is formed to have amiddle part 11 and twoend parts 12 at the sides of themiddle part 11, wherein, the thickness of themiddle part 11 is smaller than the thickness of eachend part 12. Themiddle part 11 and twoend parts 12 are arranged essentially along the axial direction of the cylinder body, and the inner lining layer 1 is essentially in a structure that is bigger at both ends and smaller in the middle which is helpful for processing and port arrangement, and provides fixing effect for the fibrous composite material formed on the outside of the twoend parts 12 and themiddle part 11. - More preferably, in the machining procedure, a
transition part 13 is formed between eachend part 12 and themiddle part 11, and the thickness of thetransition part 13 transits from the thickness of theend part 12 to the thickness of themiddle part 11. With thetransition part 13, stress concentration incurred by abrupt change of thickness can be prevented. - More preferably, in the inner lining layer forming step, an oil port and/or connecting thread is/are formed on the
end parts 12 of the inner lining layer 1, and in the bonding step, the first fibrouscomposite layer 2 is bonded on the outside of themiddle part 11 andtransition parts 13 of the inner lining layer 1. Thus, the oil port and/or connecting thread of the cylinder body can be pre-formed on theend parts 12 as required, and the oil part and/or connecting thread is/are not covered by the first fibrouscomposite layer 2, insulatinglayer 3 and second fibrous composite layer 4 (if any); therefore, the cylinder body has high machinability, and it is unnecessary to work out additional oil port and/or connecting thread on any other material layer (e.g., the first fibrouscomposite layer 2, insulatinglayer 3 and second fibrous composite layer 4) except for the inner lining layer 1. - The
transition part 13 may have a ramp profile with uniformly transiting thickness or a staged profile with thickness transiting by stages, or any other appropriate profile. Preferably, in the machining procedure, thetransition part 13 is formed to have aramp part 131 and a raisedpart 132 arranged on theramp part 131, wherein, the thickness of theramp part 131 transits uniformly from the thickness of theend part 12 to the thickness of themiddle part 11. The raisedpart 132 is helpful for bonding between the inner lining layer 1 and other material layers (e.g., the first fibrous composite layer 2) and improving the bonding force, and can prevent the inner lining layer 1 from separated from other material layers. The raisedpart 132 may be one raised continuous ring or multiple raised continuous rings (one continuous ring as shown inFigure 3 ), or may be a plurality of discrete raised bars or raised ribs. - More preferably, the inner lining layer forming step further comprises: a sand blasting procedure: carrying out sand blasting on the outer surface of the inner lining layer 1 formed in the machining procedure, to increase roughness of the outer surface of the inner lining layer 1. In that way, the bonding force between the inner lining layer 1 and other material layers (e.g., insulating
layer 3, first fibrouscomposite layer 2, etc.) can be increased. - Hereunder the manufacturing process of the cylinder body will be described briefly taking the embodiment of cylinder body of an actuating cylinder shown in
Figure 1∼3 as an example. - (1) Forming the inner lining layer 1 shown in
Figure 3 by machining; - (3) Bonding a piece of glass fiber cloth on the outside of the
middle part 11 of the inner lining layer 1 by a high-toughness adhesive, to form an insulatinglayer 3; - (3) Forming a first fibrous
composite layer 2 on the outside of the insulatinglayer 3 and thetransition part 13 of the inner lining layer 1 by wet winding; - (4) Wrapping a piece of glass fiber cloth on the outside of the first fibrous
composite layer 2 so as to control the substrate resin in the first fibrouscomposite layer 2 infiltrate into the glass fiber cloth, to form a second fibrous composite layer 4; - (5) Loading the cylinder body into a baking oven, to accomplish forming by thermosetting.
