Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of excavator assembly technology, and in particular to a counterweight bolt removal wrench lifting fixture. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, counterweight bolts on medium-sized excavators are often removed using a torque wrench. The torque wrench needs to be lifted steadily using a crane and slings. Then, one person holds the end of the wrench to keep it horizontal while adjusting the height of the wrench by controlling the crane hook. Another person then pulls the head of the wrench to place the socket into the bolt head. After that, both people apply force to the end of the wrench while maintaining its balance to remove the counterweight bolt. The remaining bolts are then removed using the same method.

[0003] The existing technical solutions have the following problems: 1. During the disassembly of the counterweight bolts, the wrench needs to be lifted by a crane and slings and kept in balance at all times. There is no limit between the wrench and the slings, which makes it easy to fall off and cause safety accidents; 2. At least two people are required to cooperate when disassembling the counterweight bolts, and the crane needs to be slowly controlled to adjust the height of the wrench. This requires a large number of people, poses safety hazards, is difficult to operate and inefficient. Utility Model Content

[0004] Objective: In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a counterweight bolt disassembly wrench lifting fixture, which improves safety and assembly efficiency and reduces labor costs.

[0006] This utility model provides a counterweight bolt removal wrench lifting fixture, including a wrench adjustment device, a fixing device and a lifting device; The wrench adjustment device includes a slot device and a rotating mechanism. The slot device is used to place and support the wrench; the rotating mechanism is installed at one end of the slot device and is used to adjust the angle of the wrench. The lifting device is installed on the fixed device and connected to the lower part of the slot device, and is used to adjust the height of the slot device, thereby adjusting the height of the wrench. The fixing device is used to support the wrench adjustment device and the lifting device.

[0007] The wrench adjustment device keeps the wrench stable in a horizontal position throughout the disassembly process; the rotating mechanism makes it easier for the wrench socket to fit into the head of the counterweight bolt; the lifting device adjusts the wrench height so that the wrench can be closer to the counterweight bolt during use.

[0008] In some embodiments, the slot device includes a slot and a plurality of arc-shaped plates. The slot includes a base plate and two side plates for accommodating a wrench. The two ends of the arc-shaped plates are respectively mounted on the two side plates of the slot, and the plurality of arc-shaped plates are installed in parallel between each other for fixing and pressing the wrench.

[0009] In some embodiments, the lifting device includes a lifting mechanism and a pressurizing mechanism, wherein the pressurizing mechanism is used to lift the card slot device by the lifting mechanism.

[0010] In some embodiments, the pressurizing mechanism is a foot-operated pressurizing mechanism.

[0011] In some embodiments, the lifting mechanism is a hydraulic lifting mechanism.

[0012] In some embodiments, the lifting device further includes a pressure relief screw, which is installed on the hydraulic lifting mechanism and is used to control the hydraulic oil to flow back to the oil reservoir of the hydraulic lifting mechanism to realize the descent of the slot device.

[0013] In some embodiments, the pressure relief screw is a Torx-shaped pressure relief screw.

[0014] In some embodiments, the fixing device includes a base and multiple fixing legs; The lifting mechanism is mounted on the base and is fixed in all four directions by fixed support legs; The fixed support leg is inclined, with one end connected to the lifting mechanism and the other end connected to the base, forming a triangular structure with the fixed support leg, the lifting mechanism and the base.

[0015] In some embodiments, the base is equipped with a plurality of caster wheels at its bottom for moving the counterweight bolt removal wrench lifting tool.

[0016] The caster wheel mechanism allows the tooling to move freely on the ground and enables the application of force to the wrench in any direction to disassemble bolts, thus improving the tooling's convenience.

[0017] Beneficial effects: The counterweight bolt removal wrench lifting fixture provided by this utility model changes the original working mode of removing the counterweight bolts of excavators from requiring two people to use a crane to lift the wrench to a working mode of one person using the fixture to lift the wrench. This reduces the safety risk of the wrench falling off, reduces personnel requirements, improves assembly efficiency, and reduces labor costs. It is suitable for removing counterweight bolts from excavators, especially medium-sized excavators. The design of the slot and multiple arc plates ensures that the wrench remains stable in a horizontal position throughout the disassembly process. The rotating mechanism makes it easier for the wrench sleeve to be nested in the bolt head. A lifting device is provided below the slot device to adjust the height of the wrench so that it is close to the bolt. Attached Figure Description
