In the process of industrial upgrading, the machine is developed in a direction to be larger and or microscopic. The machine upgrade requires a corresponding upgrade of the parts that make up the machine. It is necessary to continuously improve the manufacturing process of the parts and add the basic functions of the parts. In the industrial automation production, in the era of artificial intelligence, it is usually difficult to make traditional accessories and devices difficult to be particularly small or particularly large. That is mainly due to the limits of existing processing and manufacturing equipment and related processes. The existing cylinder apparatus mainly uses a piston with a sealing ring to divide the inner cavity of the cylinder into two closed cavities. The pressure difference between the two cavities pushes the piston. In this case, it is a high cost to make an extreme small piston or inner cavity of the cylinder. It is also a high cost to make a large and long piston or inner cavity of the cylinder. The single-acting cylinder apparatus is only single-acting, which has great application limitations. There is performance degradation of the automatic reset device comes along the longer cylinder apparatus.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DISCLOSURE

The mechanism and working principle of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. In order to illustrate this embodiment, some components in the drawings may be omitted, enlarged or reduced, which do not represent the size of the actual product. For those skilled in the art, it is understood that some well-known structures in the drawings and their descriptions may be omitted. It can be understood that the same or similar reference numerals correspond to the same or similar components.

Referred to FIGS. 1-2, the present disclosure provides a pistonless double-acting cylinder apparatus. The pistonless double-acting cylinder apparatus comprises a piston rod member 1, a first cylinder member 2 disposed on the piston rod member 1, a second cylinder member 3 disposed on an end surface of the first cylinder member 2, a tie rod 5 which connects the first cylinder member 2 and the second cylinder member 3, nuts 4 provided on both ends of the tie rod 5, a first sealing ring 7 located between the first cylinder member 2 and the second cylinder member 3, a first cushion 6 and a second cushion 8 disposed on the piston rod member 1; the piston rod member 1 comprises a piston rod left section 11, a first sealing gasket 12 disposed on the piston rod left section 11, a piston rod middle section 13 disposed on an end surface of the first sealing gasket 12, a second sealing gasket 14 disposed on an end surface of the piston rod middle section 13, a piston rod right section 15 disposed on the second sealing gasket 14.
