Here, a double-cylinder horizontal hydraulic shock absorber 1 (hereinafter referred to as “hydraulic shock absorber 1”) disposed substantially horizontally as a left-right motion damper between a vehicle body and a carriage of a railway vehicle will be described. In the following description, for convenience, the vertical direction and the horizontal direction in FIG. 1 are defined as the vertical direction and the horizontal direction of the hydraulic shock absorber 1 in the attached state.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the hydraulic shock absorber 1 has an outer cylinder 2 and an inner cylinder 3 that are arranged concentrically, that is, share an axis. The left end and the right end of the outer cylinder 2 and the inner cylinder 3 are closed by the end plate 4 and the end plate 5. Thereby, an annular reservoir 6 is formed between the outer cylinder 2 and the inner cylinder 3. The end plate 5 is divided into an end plate 7 that closes the right end of the outer cylinder 2 and an end plate 8 that closes the right end of the inner cylinder 3. A bracket 9 connected to the vehicle body side of the railway vehicle is fixed to the end plate 7. The end plate 5 is configured such that the shaft portion 10 formed on the right end side of the end plate 8 is fitted into the recess 11 formed on the end surface on the opposite side (left side) with respect to the bracket 9 of the end plate 7. The end plate 7 and the end plate 8 are integrated. A spigot joint portion 29 is formed between the outer periphery of the end plate 7 and the right end of the outer cylinder 2.

  A piston 12 is slidably fitted inside the inner cylinder 3. The inside of the inner cylinder 3 is divided into a first liquid chamber 13A and a second liquid chamber 13B by the piston 12 to the left and right. Hydraulic fluid is sealed in the first liquid chamber 13A and the second liquid chamber 13B. The reservoir 6 is filled with hydraulic fluid and air. The piston 12 is connected to the right end of the piston rod 14. The left end side of the piston rod 14 passes through the first liquid chamber 13 </ b> A and the end plate 4 and extends to the outside of the inner cylinder 3. At the left end of the piston rod 14, a bracket 15 connected to the carriage side of the railway vehicle is fixed. A cylindrical cover 16 that covers the piston rod 14 extending from the end plate 4 is attached to the bracket 15.

  When the piston 12 contracts the piston rod 14, the movement of the hydraulic fluid from the second liquid chamber 13B to the first liquid chamber 13A is prevented, and the liquid pressure in the second liquid chamber 13B reaches a constant pressure. A contraction-side relief valve 17 is provided to release the fluid pressure in the second fluid chamber 13B to the first fluid chamber 13A. Further, the piston 12 is prevented from moving the hydraulic fluid from the first fluid chamber 13A to the second fluid chamber 13B during the extension stroke of the piston rod 14, and the fluid pressure in the first fluid chamber 13A reaches a constant pressure. Sometimes, an extension-side relief valve 18 is provided to release the fluid pressure in the first fluid chamber 13A to the second fluid chamber 13B. Further, the end plate 8 is provided with a relief valve 19 that opens according to the fluid pressure in the second fluid chamber 13B and releases the fluid pressure in the second fluid chamber 13B to the reservoir 6. Further, the end plate 8 is provided with a check valve 20 that allows only the flow of the working fluid from the reservoir 6 to the second fluid chamber 13B.

  In the first embodiment, the end plate 8 is a cast iron part formed in a substantially cap shape. The shaft portion 10 described above is formed at the right end of the end plate 8. On the opposite side of the end plate 8 with respect to the shaft portion 10, an annular outer fitting portion 21 constituting a part of the side wall of the end plate 8 is formed. The outer peripheral surface 22 </ b> A of the right end portion 22 of the inner cylinder 3 is fitted to the inner peripheral surface 21 </ b> B of the outer fitting portion 21. Further, an annular seal groove 23 is formed on the inner peripheral surface 21B of the outer fitting portion 21, and the space between the inner cylinder 3 and the end plate 8 is sealed by a seal member 24 attached to the seal groove 23. The The inner cylinder 3 is in contact with the bottom 25 of the end plate 8 at the right end (the end surface of the right end 22). The outer diameter of the inner cylinder 3 is formed with a general tolerance, and the outer fitting portion 21 of the end plate 8 and the right end portion 22 of the inner cylinder 3 are fitted with a predetermined fitting tolerance.

  On the other hand, in the first embodiment, the end plate 4 is a cast iron part formed in a substantially cylindrical shape. As shown in FIG. 2, the outer peripheral surface 26 on the bracket 15 side (left side) of the end plate 4 is fitted into an end plate fitting portion 28 formed inside the left end portion 27 of the outer cylinder 2. Note that the end plate fitting portion 28 is formed by machining the inside of the left end portion 27 of the outer cylinder 2. Further, the outer cylinder 2 and the end plate 4 are fitted with a predetermined fitting tolerance. Note that the end plate 8 and the end plate 4 may be sintered parts instead of the cast iron parts.

  On the right end side of the end plate 4, that is, on the side opposite to the bracket 15 side, an inner fitting portion 31 fitted inside the inner cylinder 3 and an outer fitting fitted outside the inner cylinder 3. Part 32 is provided. In other words, the distal end of the left end portion 33 of the inner cylinder 3 is inserted into an annular groove 34 formed between the inner fitting portion 31 and the outer fitting portion 32 of the end plate 4. Note that the outer fitting portion 32 of the end plate 4 extends rightward with respect to the inner fitting portion 31. As described above, the outer peripheral surface 33 </ b> A of the left end portion 33 of the inner cylinder 3 is covered with the outer fitting portion 32. The tip of the left end 33 of the inner cylinder 3 is abutted against the bottom of the groove 34 of the end plate 4. Thereby, the inner cylinder 3 and the end plate 4 are relatively positioned in the axial direction (left-right direction).

  And in 1st Embodiment, the clearance gap between the outer fitting part 32 of the end plate 4 and the outer side of the inner cylinder 3, ie, the inner peripheral surface 32B of the outer fitting part 32, and the left end part 33 of the inner cylinder 3 is provided. A gap between the outer peripheral surface 33A is a gap between the inner fitting portion 31 of the end plate 4 and the inner side of the inner cylinder 3, that is, the outer peripheral surface 31A of the inner fitting portion 31 and the left end portion 33 of the inner cylinder 3. Is set larger than the gap between the inner peripheral surface 33B of the first and second inner peripheral surfaces 33B. For example, the inner fitting part 31 and the inner side of the inner cylinder 3 are fitted by intermediate fitting, and the outer fitting part 32 and the outer side of the inner cylinder 3 are fitted by clearance fitting. Thereby, the clearance gap between the outer fitting part 32 and the outer side of the inner cylinder 3 can be made larger than the clearance gap between the inner fitting part 31 and the inner side of the inner cylinder 3. FIG.

  Further, the hydraulic shock absorber 1 is configured with an air vent structure for discharging the air staying in the upper corner portion 35 of the first liquid chamber 13 </ b> A to the reservoir 6. In 1st Embodiment, the clearance gap between the above-mentioned outer fitting part 32 and the outer side of the inner cylinder 3 functions as the annular channel | path 36 which comprises some air bleeding structures. The air vent structure includes a communication passage 37 for communicating the annular passage 36 with the upper corner portion 35 of the first liquid chamber 13A. In the first embodiment, the communication path 37 is formed by cutting out the upper part of the inner fitting portion 31 of the end plate 4. In other words, the communication path 37 is formed by notching the upper part (uppermost position) of the groove 34 formed in the end plate 4 to the left side and the lower side. Note that the right end of the annular passage 36 is defined by a seal member 38. Further, the seal member 38 is mounted in a seal groove 39 formed on the inner peripheral surface 32B of the outer fitting portion 32 of the end plate 4.

  In the first embodiment, the air vent structure has a lower region at the left end of the reservoir 6, in other words, a region surrounding the outer peripheral surface 32A of the outer fitting portion 32 in the reservoir 6, and a lower portion (lowermost position) of the annular passage 36. And a flow path 40 that communicates with each other. The flow path 40 is formed below the outer fitting portion 32 of the end plate 4. The flow path 40 is provided with an orifice 41 whose upper end opens to the lower part of the annular passage 36. As described above, the air vent structure allows the upper corner 35 of the first liquid chamber 13A to be located in the lower region of the left end of the reservoir 6 via the communication passage 37, the annular passage 36, the orifice 41, and the flow path 40. Configured to communicate. Here, the corner 35 is desirably on the upper side, and more desirably on the uppermost position in a state where the hydraulic shock absorber 1 is attached. However, as described as the upper side, it is not always necessary to be on the upper side. For example, the corner 35 may be provided on the upper side of the intermediate position. Even in that case, air can be discharged by the pressure of the first liquid chamber 13A and the second liquid chamber 13B.

  A left end portion of the end plate 4, that is, a portion fitted to the end plate fitting portion 28 of the outer cylinder 2, and a right end portion of the end plate 4, that is, the inner fitting portion 31 and the outer fitting portion 32 are formed. An intermediate portion 42 having a certain gap between the inner peripheral surface 2 </ b> B of the outer cylinder 2 is formed between the two portions. A step portion 43 formed between the intermediate portion 42 and a portion fitted to the end plate fitting portion 28 of the outer cylinder 2 is formed between the inner peripheral surface 2B of the outer cylinder 2 and the end plate fitting portion 28. By interfering with the stepped portion 44 formed therebetween, the tip of the left end portion 33 of the inner cylinder 3 is formed so as not to abut against the bottom portion of the groove 34 of the end plate 4. In the end plate 4, a notch 45 is formed in the upper portion of the intermediate portion 42 (position at 12 o'clock in the left-right direction). The notch 45 is formed in the left end portion 27 of the outer cylinder 2. The caulking portion 46 is engaged. Thereby, the rotation prevention structure which prevents the relative movement of the end plate 4 around the axis line with respect to the outer cylinder 2 is configured. Further, instead of the structure for forming the caulking portion 46 as the rotation preventing structure, a convex portion may be formed on the inner periphery of the outer cylinder 2.

Next, the operation of the first embodiment will be described.
When the vehicle body and the bogie of the railway vehicle move relative to each other in the horizontal direction, the piston rod 14 of the hydraulic shock absorber 1 arranged in the lateral direction expands and contracts. During the extension stroke of the piston rod 14, the hydraulic fluid in the first liquid chamber 13A flows through the extension-side relief valve 18 of the piston 12 and flows into the second liquid chamber 13B. In parallel, the hydraulic fluid in the first liquid chamber 13 </ b> A is discharged to the reservoir 6 via the communication path 37, the annular path 36, the orifice 41, and the flow path 40. As described above, the hydraulic fluid in the first liquid chamber 13A passes through the relief valve 18 and the orifice 41, thereby generating an expansion-side damping force.

  When air stays in the upper corner portion 35 of the first liquid chamber 13A during the extension stroke of the piston rod 14, the air, together with the hydraulic fluid, communicates with the communication passage 37, the annular passage 36, the orifice 41, and the flow passage 40. Is discharged to the reservoir 6 via. During the extension stroke of the piston rod 14, the volume of hydraulic fluid that the piston rod 14 has withdrawn from the first liquid chamber 13 </ b> A is introduced from the reservoir 6 into the second liquid chamber 13 </ b> B through the check valve 20 of the end plate 8. The

  On the other hand, during the contraction stroke of the piston rod 14, the hydraulic fluid in the second liquid chamber 13B flows through the contraction-side relief valve 17 of the piston 12 and flows into the first liquid chamber 13A. In parallel, the volume of hydraulic fluid in which the piston rod 14 has entered the first liquid chamber 13A is discharged from the second liquid chamber 13B to the reservoir 6 through the relief valve 19 of the end plate 8. As described above, the hydraulic fluid in the second liquid chamber 13B passes through the relief valve 17 and the relief valve 19 to generate a contraction-side damping force.

  According to the first embodiment, since the air vent structure is configured by communicating the annular passage 36 with the upper corner 35 which is the uppermost position of the first liquid chamber 13A, the piston rod 14 is expanded and contracted (vibrated) with a relatively small amplitude. ), The air staying in the upper corner portion 35 of the first fluid chamber 13A passes through the communication passage 37, the annular passage 36, the orifice 41, and the passage 40 together with the working fluid. Thus, it can be reliably discharged to the reservoir 6. Further, the air staying in the upper corner portion 35 of the first liquid chamber 13A passes through the communication passage 37 and smoothly moves to the uppermost portion of the annular passage 36 positioned at a higher position. Thus, it is possible to prevent the air reaching the upper portion of the annular passage 36 from returning to the first liquid chamber 13A. Thus, it is possible to reliably buffer even an input with a small amplitude, and the reliability of the double-cylinder horizontal hydraulic shock absorber 1 can be improved.

Further, the left end portion 33 of the inner cylinder 3 can be obtained by fitting the end plate 4 only outside the inner cylinder 3 without fitting the end plate 4 inside the inner cylinder 3. In the hydraulic shock absorber that closes the outer cylinder 3, the outer diameter of the inner cylinder 3 needs to be formed with a tighter tolerance than the general tolerance. In addition, the selection of a thick material (inner cylinder 3) is a factor that increases the manufacturing cost.
On the other hand, in the first embodiment, the inner fitting portion 31 of the end plate 4 is fitted inside the inner cylinder 3 and the left end portion 33 of the inner cylinder 3 is closed. Since the tolerance remains a general tolerance and does not need to be tightened, the manufacturing cost can be reduced with respect to the above-described conventional hydraulic shock absorber.

In the first embodiment, the inner fitting portion 31 of the end plate 4 is fitted inside the inner cylinder 3 to close the left end portion 33 of the inner cylinder 3. An annular clearance formed between the outer side of the inner cylinder 3 (the inner periphery 33B of the left end portion 33) can be used as the annular passage 36 of the air vent structure, and the air vent structure is more easily configured. can do.
Furthermore, in the first embodiment, the caulking portion 46 formed by caulking the side wall of the outer cylinder 2 is engaged with the notch 45 formed at the uppermost portion of the intermediate portion 42 of the end plate 4. The relative movement (rotation) around the axis with respect to the outer cylinder 2 can be prevented, and the hydraulic shock absorber 1 is disposed upside down at the time of attachment to the railway vehicle. In other words, the communication path 37 and the orifice 41 Can be prevented from being placed upside down.

In addition, 1st Embodiment is not limited above, For example, it can comprise as follows.
In 1st Embodiment, although the end plate 4 and the end plate 8 were shape | molded by cast irons, such as die-casting, it can shape | mold by sintering or cutting, for example.
Moreover, in 1st Embodiment, although the air vent structure was comprised by forming the communicating path 37 in the end plate 4, for example, the notch (slit) formed in the upper part (uppermost position) of the left end of the inner cylinder 3 is comprised. By using the communication passage 37, an air vent structure can be configured.

In the first embodiment, the communication path 37 is formed by cutting out the inner fitting portion 31 of the end plate 4. In other words, the communication path 37 is formed simultaneously with the molding of the end plate 4, but the upper side of the first liquid chamber 13A. The corner 35 and the annular passage 36 are communicated to form an air vent structure, but as shown in FIG. 3, a drill hole is drilled diagonally left upward toward the upper portion of the groove 34 of the end plate 4. Thus, the communication path 37 can be formed.
In this case, the uppermost part of the communication path 37 (see FIG. 3) formed by the drill hole is at a higher position than the uppermost part of the communication path 37 (see FIG. 2) formed by the notch. It is possible to more reliably prevent the air that has passed through and reaches the upper portion of the annular passage 36 from returning to the first liquid chamber 13A.

In the first embodiment, the gap between the outer fitting portion 32 of the end plate 4 and the outer side of the inner cylinder 3, that is, the outer circumferential surface of the inner peripheral surface 32 </ b> B of the outer fitting portion 32 and the left end portion 33 of the inner cylinder 3. Although the air vent structure is configured using the gap between the inner tube 3 as the annular passage 36, when the variation in the outer diameter of the inner cylinder 3 is relatively large, as shown in FIG. The air bleeding structure can be configured so as to secure a flow path by forming an auxiliary annular groove 47 on the inner peripheral surface 32B of the fitting portion 32.
In this case, the cross-sectional area of the auxiliary annular groove can be made smaller than the cross-sectional area of the annular groove of the prior art air vent structure configured to ensure the flow path with only the annular groove. The end plate 4 (outer fitting portion 32) can be prevented from being enlarged in the axial direction (left-right direction).

It is set larger than the gap. For example, the inner fitting part 51 and the inner side of the inner cylinder 3 are fitted by intermediate fitting, and the outer fitting part 52 and the outer side of the inner cylinder 3 are fitted by clearance fitting. Thereby, the clearance gap between the outer fitting part 52 and the outer side of the inner cylinder 3 can be made larger than the clearance gap between the inner fitting part 51 and the inner cylinder 3 side.
