[0029] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0030] Reference Figures 1-8 An armrest control box for an excavator includes an excavator body 1, with fixed seats 2 movably installed on both sides of the excavator body 1, a fixed ring 3 rotatably installed inside the fixed seat 2, an armrest box 4 movably installed inside the fixed ring 3, a movable cover 11 movably installed inside the armrest box 4, a fixing mechanism is provided inside the movable cover 11, and the fixed seat 2 is provided with a supporting mechanism below the fixed ring 3. By rotating the fixing seat 2, the fixing ring 3 can change its state, and the fixing ring 3 can block the driver on the excavator body 1 after rotation, preventing the driver from falling from both sides of the excavator body 1, thereby improving the safety of the device. The fixed ring 3 can block the branches on both sides of the excavator body 1 after rotation to prevent branches and plant branches from affecting the driver, causing the driver to be distracted during driving and increasing safety hazards. When the driver needs to get off the vehicle during work, the fixing ring 3 rotates to the operating table of the excavator body 1 to block the gear lever on the operating table to prevent children at the work site from climbing up the excavator body 1 out of curiosity and touching the gear lever, thereby causing safety hazards. The movable cover 11 moves up and down in the armrest box 4, so that people of different body shapes can adjust the armrest box 4 to the most comfortable state when using this device.

[0031] As a technical optimization solution of the present invention, a second slot 19 is provided below the seat of the excavator body 1. A lever 21 is mounted within the second slot 19. A return spring 20 is mounted within the second slot 19. The lever 21 is located within the return spring 20. The bottom end of the return spring 20 is connected to the top of the excavator body 1. A contact switch 18 is movably embedded in the top of the excavator body 1 directly below the lever 21. When the driver needs to stand on the excavator body 1 to operate the excavator body 1, the lever 21 no longer contacts the contact switch 18 due to the elastic action of the return spring 20. At this time, the first rotary motor 5 starts to start, driving the fixed seat 2 to rotate toward the operating platform of the excavator body 1, so that the fixed ring 3 blocks both sides of the operating platform of the excavator body 1, providing a left and right blocking effect for the driver, preventing the driver from losing his balance and falling off the excavator body 1 due to the complex terrain and the left and right shaking of the excavator body 1 during operation.

[0032] As a technical optimization solution of the present invention, a first rotary motor 5 is embedded and mounted on both sides of the excavator body 1. The output end of the first rotary motor 5 is remote from the excavator body 1 and connected to one side of the fixed base 2. The rotation of the first rotary motor 5 drives the fixed base 2 to rotate, which has the advantage of simple operation.

[0033] As a technical optimization solution of the present invention, a fixing rod 6 is connected between the inner walls of the two ends of the fixing base 2. The fixing rod 6 movably passes through the bottom side of the fixing ring 3. The fixing ring 3 can rotate on the fixing base 2 through the fixing rod 6. The fixing ring 3 can rotate around the fixing rod 6, making the subsequent operation of the device smoother and improving the convenience of use of the device.

[0034] As a technical optimization solution of the present invention, the support mechanism includes a first slot 7 and an electric telescopic rod 8. A plurality of first slots 7 are uniformly formed along the length of the bottom of the fixing base 2. A plurality of electric telescopic rods 8 are uniformly mounted along the length of the bottom of the fixing base 2. The telescopic ends of the electric telescopic rods 8 are movable through the first slots 7 to abut against the bottom end of the fixing ring 3. When the telescopic ends of the electric telescopic rods 8 retract, the electric telescopic rods 8 no longer support the fixing ring 3. At this point, the fixing ring 3 can be lowered, and ultimately the fixing ring 3 and the top of the excavator body 1 are in a horizontal state, allowing the operator to lie flat on the fixing ring 3 and the seat to rest.

[0035] As a technical optimization solution of the present invention, the outer walls on both sides of the armrest box 4 that are in contact with the fixed ring 3 are both provided with a first slide groove 9 horizontally along the end wall direction, and a first electric slider 10 is slidably installed inside the first slide groove 9, and the side of the first electric slider 10 close to the fixed ring 3 is connected to the inner wall of the fixed ring 3. The first electric slider 10 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the fixed ring 3, and the armrest box 4 is movably placed inside the fixed ring 3. The first slide groove 9 is provided at the position where the armrest box 4 contacts the fixed ring 3, and the first electric slider 10 slides in the first slide groove 9. Since the position of the first electric slider 10 is fixed and the armrest box 4 is movable, when the first electric slider 10 slides in the first slide groove 9, the armrest box 4 can move in the fixed ring 3. When the armrest box 4 moves to the top and is flush with the top of the fixed ring 3, the driver can lie flat.

[0036] As a technical optimization solution of the present invention, second slide grooves 12 are vertically opened on the outer walls at both ends of the movable cover 11, and a second electric slider 13 is slidably installed inside the second slide groove 12. The second electric slider 13 is connected to the inner wall of the armrest box 4 on the side close to the armrest box 4. The movable cover 11 is movably placed inside the armrest box 4, through the second electric slider 13 fixedly installed on the inner end wall of the armrest box 4, and the second electric slider 13 is slidably installed inside the second slide groove 12. Therefore, when the second electric slider 13 slides in the second slide groove 12, since the position of the second electric slider 13 is fixed, when the second electric slider 13 slides, the movable cover 11 can slide up and down inside the armrest box 4, thereby achieving different usage effects.

[0037] As a technical optimization solution of the present invention, the fixing mechanism includes an airbag 14. The airbag 14 is detachably mounted on the inner wall of one side of the movable cover 11, and the airbag 14 can extend parallel to the outside of the movable cover 11. The second electric slider 13 slides in the second slide groove 12, causing the movable cover 11 to move upward inside the armrest box 4, exposing the opening of the movable cover 11. At this time, the staff uses the air pump to inflate the airbag 14 through the operating panel. At this time, the airbag 14 can extend outward through the opening of the movable cover 11. When the airbag 14 extends inside the armrest box 4, it can fix the items placed inside the armrest box 4, preventing the items placed in the armrest box 4 from being damaged during the forward shaking of the excavator body 1.

[0038] When the opening of the movable cover 11 is exposed, the airbags 14 on both sides of the excavator body 1 extend toward the driver. The two airbags 14 can wrap the driver. The airbags 14 can relieve the left and right shaking force that the driver is subjected to during driving, making the driver drive more comfortably. The wrapping of the driver by the airbags 14 can also prevent the driver from suddenly falling ill and falling directly from the excavator body 1. When the driver lies flat on the fixed ring 3 and the seat, the movable cover 11 extends outward and the airbags 14 extend outward. The airbags 14 can act as a pillow, making the driver more comfortable lying flat.

[0039] As a technical optimization solution of the present invention, a plurality of insertion slots 15 are uniformly and horizontally formed along the length of the inner wall of one side of the movable cover 11. Rubber blocks 16 are inserted and installed in the insertion slots 15. The side of the rubber block 16 near the airbag 14 is connected to the airbag 14. If the airbag 14 is damaged, the operator can simply pull the airbag 14 outward. When the rubber block 16 is free of the insertion slot 15, the airbag 14 can be removed. This greatly simplifies the maintenance of the airbag 14 and increases the convenience of use of the device.

[0040] As a technical optimization solution of the present invention, fixing blocks 17 are mounted on both sides of the excavator body 1. The top ends of the fixing blocks 17 abut against the bottom end of the fixing base 2 away from the first rotary motor 5. During daily use, the fixing blocks 17 support the fixing base 2, extending the service life of the first rotary motor 5.

[0041] When the present invention is in use, the airbag 14 is a corrugated airbag and is equipped with an air pump for inflating it. The air outlet of the airbag 14 is controlled by a solenoid valve. The air pump and the solenoid valve of the air outlet can be controlled by the driver through an external control panel. The excavator body 1 is a small excavator. When a worker sits on the seat of the excavator body 1, the driver's own weight presses the return spring 20 downward, causing the lever 21 to contact the contact switch 18. At this time, the first rotary motor 5 is not started. At this time, the position state of the fixed seat 2 is as follows. Figure 1 As shown, when the driver needs to stand on the excavator body 1 to drive the excavator body 1, under the elastic action of the return spring 20, the lever 21 no longer contacts the contact switch 18. At this time, the first rotary motor 5 starts to start, driving the fixed seat 2 to rotate toward the operating table of the excavator body 1, so that the fixed ring 3 blocks both sides of the operating table of the excavator body 1, providing the driver with a left and right blocking effect, preventing the driver from falling from the excavator body 1 due to the complex terrain and the shaking of the excavator body 1 during operation.

[0042] The lever 21 and the contact switch 18 are a way to control the first rotating motor 5, and the staff can manually turn off the control effect of the contact switch 18 on the first rotating motor 5. There is also another manual switch on the device to control the first rotating motor 5. When the device is used for construction in agricultural places such as orchards, the driver will inevitably be disturbed by tree branches and other plant branches during the forward movement of the excavator body 1. At this time, the driver starts the first rotating motor 5 through the manual switch, causing the fixed seat 2 to start rotating. At this time, the fixed ring 3 can block the tree branches and plant branches on both sides of the driver during the forward movement of the excavator body 1 to prevent the tree branches and plant branches from affecting the driver, causing the driver to be distracted during driving and increasing safety hazards.

[0043] When the driver needs to get off the vehicle during work, the driver first turns off the control effect of the contact switch 18 on the first rotary motor 5. After getting off the vehicle, the driver starts the first rotary motor 5 through the manual switch. At this time, the fixed ring 3 rotates to the operating table of the excavator body 1, blocking the gear lever on the operating table to prevent children at the work site from climbing onto the excavator body 1 out of curiosity and touching the gear lever, which would cause a safety hazard.

[0044] When the driver controls the excavator body 1 to move forward, since the road condition is not very stable, the second electric slider 13 slides in the second slide groove 12, causing the movable cover 11 to move upward inside the armrest box 4, and then the airbag 14 begins to inflate and extend outward. The airbags 14 on both sides of the excavator body 1 extend toward the driver. The two airbags 14 can wrap the driver. The airbags 14 can alleviate the left and right shaking force exerted on the driver during driving, making the driver's driving more comfortable. The airbags 14 wrapping the driver can also prevent the driver from suddenly falling ill and falling directly from the excavator body 1. When the airbags 14 extend inside the armrest box 4, the items placed inside the armrest box 4 can be fixed to prevent the items placed in the armrest box 4 from being damaged during the forward shaking of the excavator body 1.

[0045] When the driver needs to take a rest, the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 8 retracts. At this time, the electric telescopic rod 8 no longer supports the fixing ring 3, and the fixing ring 3 can be rotated downward, and finally the fixing ring 3 and the seat of the excavator body 1 are in a horizontal state. At this time, the first electric slider 10 slides in the first slide groove 9, so that the armrest box 4 moves downward inside the fixing ring 3, and finally the top of the armrest box 4 is level with the top of the fixing ring 3 in this state. At this time, the driver can lie flat on the flat plate composed of the seat and the fixing ring 3 to rest. At this time, the second electric slider 13 slides in the second slide groove 12, so that the movable cover 11 moves inside the armrest box 4, and moves to a state where the opening of the movable cover 11 is completely exposed, and in this state, the opening of the movable cover 11 faces upward, and the staff controls the air pump to inflate the airbag 14, and the airbag 14 can extend outward through the opening of the movable cover 11. When the top of the airbag 14 extends to a suitable position, the airbag 14 can act as a pillow, making the driver lie flat more comfortable.

[0046] When the device is working in the orchard, after the fixed ring 3 is laid flat, the movable cover 11 extends outward. At this time, when the airbag 14 does not extend outward, the armrest box 4 achieves the effect of expansion. At this time, the staff can put the picked fruits into the armrest box 4 for storage. When the first rotating motor 5 rotates, the fruits in the armrest box 4 can also be directly poured out.

[0047] When the airbag 14 is damaged, the staff can directly pull the airbag 14 outward. When the rubber block 16 is out of the insertion slot 15, the airbag 14 can be taken out, which greatly increases the ease of repair of the airbag 14 and increases the convenience of use of the device.

[0048] The above description is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field, within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, who makes equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered by the scope of protection of the present invention.
