Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of engineering machinery technology, and in particular to a cab and operating machinery. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the driving field of vision for some construction machinery generally includes direct view and assessment shadows. For example, the cab of a super-large excavator used in mining areas is relatively high off the ground, and the machine's field of vision during operation generally includes both direct view and assessment shadows. In related technologies, to compensate for insufficient direct view, auxiliary monitoring mirrors and rearview mirrors are needed. If the field of vision is still insufficient, additional auxiliary fields of vision are required. For example, for tracked dump trucks, the driver should be able to see at least the ground projection (within a radius of 10m) of the outermost edge of the track at the center line of the drive sprocket or idler wheel on both sides of the machine using the rearview mirror.

[0003] However, in order to meet the safety performance requirements of vibration fatigue and FOPS (falling object protection device), the main frame of the left and right front pillars of the current construction machinery cab is designed to be relatively robust, and the side frame of the cab is mainly a quadrilateral frame, and the area near the lower stress source of the cab is reinforced. This will increase the obstruction angle of vision, resulting in a reduced field of vision. It is necessary to add auxiliary monitoring screens and rearview mirrors to meet the vision requirements, which increases costs, reduces the ease of operation of the seat, and increases safety hazards. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention provides a cab and a working machine to solve the problems of existing engineering machinery cabs, which have a thick frame and a quadrilateral frame as the side frame to meet safety performance requirements, and are reinforced near the lower stress source of the cab. This results in an increased field of vision obstruction angle, which reduces the field of vision and requires the use of additional auxiliary monitoring mirrors and rearview mirrors to meet the field of vision requirements. This increases costs, reduces the ease of operation of the seat, and increases safety hazards.

Moreover, without contradiction, those skilled in the art can combine and integrate the different embodiments or examples described in this specification, as well as the features of different embodiments or examples.

[0059] The following is combined Figures 1 to 12 The present invention describes the driver's cab and the operating machinery.

[0060] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the present invention provides a driver's cab that may include a first front pillar assembly 4, a second front pillar assembly 5, a top cover 1, a floor plate 2, a rear frame 3, a first side window 6, and a second side window 7.

[0061] The first side window 6 can be connected to the roof 1, the first front pillar assembly 4, and the rear frame 3. The front end of the first lower window frame 8 of the first side window 6 can be connected to the bottom end of the first front pillar assembly 4, and the rear end of the first lower window frame 8 of the first side window 6 can be connected to the rear frame 3. The first lower window frame 8, the bottom plate 2, and the rear frame 3 of the first side window 6 can form a triangle. In this way, the first lower window frame 8, the bottom plate 2, and the rear frame 3 of the first side window 6 can form a stable triangular frame structure, which can provide the maximum field of vision for driving operations, reduce the use of auxiliary monitoring mirrors and rearview mirrors, and ensure the strength of the cab.

[0062] The second side window 7 can be connected to the roof 1, the second front pillar assembly 5, and the rear frame 3 respectively. The front end of the second lower window frame 9 of the second side window 7 can be connected to the bottom end of the second front pillar assembly 5, and the rear end of the second lower window frame 9 of the second side window 7 can be connected to the rear frame 3. The second lower window frame 9, the bottom plate 2, and the rear frame 3 of the second side window 7 can form a triangle. In this way, the second lower window frame 9, the bottom plate 2, and the rear frame 3 of the second side window 7 can form a stable triangular frame structure, which can provide the maximum field of vision for driving operations, reduce the use of auxiliary monitoring mirrors and rearview mirrors, and ensure the strength of the cab.

[0063] Here, the aforementioned rear frame 3 can be a quadrilateral frame.

[0064] With this configuration, the first lower window frame 8, the base plate 2, and the rear frame 3 of the first side window 6 are connected to form a triangular frame structure, and the second lower window frame 9, the base plate 2, and the rear frame 3 of the second side window 7 are also connected to form a triangular frame structure. This allows the main side frames on both sides of the cab to form a triangular design, enabling them to withstand greater external forces and reducing the amount of material used in the cab frame. It also eliminates the need to thicken the first front pillar assembly 4 and the second front pillar assembly 5. Furthermore, the front end of the first lower window frame 8 of the first side window 6 is connected to the bottom end of the first front pillar assembly 4, and the front end of the second lower window frame 9 of the second side window 7 is connected to the bottom end of the second front pillar assembly 5. This effectively increases the driver's field of vision and reduces the use of auxiliary monitoring mirrors and rearview mirrors.

[0065] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the cab may further include a front window, the driver's seat 10 may be installed in the cab, and the front window may be connected to the top cover 1, the first front pillar assembly 4, the second front pillar assembly 5 and the floor 2 respectively.

[0066] Furthermore, the reference eye point and the front end of the top cover 1 form a first plane, and the bottom end of the upper window frame 13 of the front window is located on the first plane. In this way, the field of view of the front window can be effectively improved.

[0067] It should be noted that the reference eye point can be the eye point position of a standard human body model 11 sitting in a standard sitting position on the driver's seat 10 in the driver's cab. Here, the standard human body model 11 can be a human body model with the standard GB / 11559.

[0068] The bottom end of the upper window frame 13 of the front window intersects with the first plane to form a first straight line. If the bottom end of the upper window frame 13 of the front window is lower than the first straight line, the field of vision of the front window will be reduced. If the bottom end of the upper window frame 13 of the front window is higher than the first straight line, it will prevent the installation of windshield wipers or reduce the strength of the cab.

[0069] Here, the driver sitting in the driver's seat 10 in the cab sees the front end of the roof 1 when the driver's forward field of vision is the smallest. No matter whether the driver's seat 10 is adjusted forward or backward or up or down, the driver's forward field of vision is greater than when seeing the roof 1.

[0070] In this embodiment, the angle between the first plane and the midline of the field of vision of the standard human body model 11 can be 37°-45°, specifically 37°.

[0071] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the cab may further include a bottom viewing window 14, which may be disposed on the floor 2 and located in front of the driver's seat 10. This allows the driver sitting in the driver's seat 10 to observe the environment at the bottom of the cab through the bottom viewing window 14, further increasing the driver's field of vision.

[0072] In an optional embodiment of the invention, a front control box assembly 12 may be provided in the driver's cab for decorative purposes. Here, the front control box assembly 12 may be located near the first side window 6.

[0073] The reference eye point is connected to the first lower window frame 8 to form a second plane, and the top of the front control box assembly 12 can be located on or below the second plane. In this way, the front control box assembly 12 will not obstruct the first lower window frame 8 when the driver looks towards the first side window 6, and will not affect the side and lower visibility of the cab, thus improving the side visibility of the cab.

[0074] It should be noted that the side view of the cab refers to the field of vision that the driver, sitting in the driver's seat 10, can see directly through the side window.

[0075] Here, the angle between the second plane and the midline of the field of vision of the standard human body model 11 can be 37°-45°, specifically 37°.

[0076] The first side window 6 mentioned above can be the left side window, and the second side window 7 can be the right side window.

[0077] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the first front pillar assembly 4 may include a first front pillar frame 17 and a first decorative element 18. The two ends of the first front pillar frame 17 may be connected to the top cover 1 and the bottom plate 2 respectively to support the top cover 1. The first decorative element 18 may be disposed on the first front pillar frame 17 and may be located in the driver's cab to improve the aesthetics of the interior of the driver's cab.

[0078] The first front pillar frame 17 may be equipped with a first air duct 19, and the first decorative piece 18 may be equipped with a first air vent 20. The first air vent 20 may be connected to the first air duct 19 and may be oriented towards the interior of the driver's cab, specifically towards the driver's seat 10. This ensures ventilation within the driver's cab and meets the thermal comfort requirements of the driver's cab.

[0079] The second front pillar assembly 5 may include a second front pillar frame 21 and a second decorative element 22. The two ends of the second front pillar frame 21 may be connected to the top cover 1 and the bottom plate 2 respectively to support the top cover 1. The second decorative element 22 may be set on the second front pillar frame 21 and may be located in the cab to improve the aesthetics of the cab interior.

[0080] The second front pillar frame 21 may contain a second air duct 23, and the second decorative piece 22 may contain a second air vent 24. The second air vent 24 may be connected to the second air duct 23 and may be oriented towards the interior of the driver's cab, specifically towards the driver's seat 10. This ensures ventilation within the driver's cab and meets the thermal comfort requirements of the driver's cab.

[0081] Here, the air conditioning duct can be installed in the first air duct 19 and / or the second air duct 23, which can optimize the design of the interior of the driver's cab.

[0082] Furthermore, the first decorative element 18 can be located within the projection range of the first front pillar frame 17, and the second decorative element 22 can be located within the projection range of the second front pillar frame 21. This ensures that the first decorative element 18 and the second decorative element 22 are within the obstruction angle's field of vision, preventing them from obstructing the driver's view and thus maximizing the field of vision.

[0083] It should be noted that the first front pillar frame 17 and the second front pillar frame 21 are obstruction angles that affect the driver's field of vision.

[0084] In an optional embodiment, the first front pillar frame 17 and the second front pillar frame 21 can be made of standard profiles welded together, without the need to thicken the first front pillar frame 17 and the second front pillar frame 21, which can further ensure the driver's driving operation field of vision is maximized; and the standard profile welding frame is simple to process, can be realized with simple tooling, and is easy to control the processing accuracy.

[0085] Here, the vibration fatigue simulation analysis results of the cab body frame by CAE (Computer-Aided Engineering in Engineering Design) can determine that the first front pillar frame 17 and the second front pillar frame 21 use the least amount of material while meeting the FOPS (Falling Object Protection Device) function, so as to meet the visibility requirements.

[0086] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the cab may further include a falling object protection device, which may be disposed above the top cover 1 and may be used to cover the top cover 1. This provides protection for the cab, preventing falling rocks and other objects from hitting the top cover 1 of the cab, thus improving the safety of the cab.

[0087] In an optional embodiment, the cab may further include a bottom protective grille, which may be disposed on the floor 2 and positioned above the bottom viewing window 14 to increase the strength of the bottom viewing window 14.

[0088] In an optional embodiment, the bottom protective grille may include a grille 15 and multiple diagonal reinforcing ribs 16. The grille 15 may cover the bottom viewing window 14. The multiple reinforcing ribs 16 may be disposed on the grille 15 to strengthen the grille 15, thereby improving the strength of the grille 15.

[0089] Here, the shape and size of the grille 15 can be consistent with the shape and size of the bottom window 14, or the size of the grille 15 can be larger than the size of the bottom window 14. In this way, the grille 15 can cover the bottom window 14 and play a protective role for the bottom window 14.

[0090] Furthermore, multiple reinforcing ribs 16 can be distributed in a radiating pattern on both sides along the direction from the rear to the front of the cab. This not only increases the strength of the grille 15 but also minimizes its impact on visibility, thus maximizing the driver's downward field of vision.

[0091] In an optional embodiment, the cab may further include a front guard net 25, which may be positioned at the front end of the front window, and the frame of the front guard net 25 may be connected to the top cover 1 and the bottom plate 2 respectively. In this way, the front guard net 25 can protect the front window and improve the safety of the cab.

[0092] Furthermore, the frame of the front guard net 25, the connection point between the front guard net 25 and the top cover 1, and the connection point between the front guard net 25 and the bottom plate 2 can all be located outside the driver's field of vision in the cab, so as to avoid the frame of the front guard net 25 affecting the driver's field of vision.

[0093] It should be noted that the driver's field of vision in the cab can include the forward view, side view, downward view, and rear view.

[0094] like Figure 1As shown, the lower frame of the left side window of the cab provided by this invention connects to the lowest point of the left front pillar assembly, maximizing the left-side field of vision. Furthermore, the lower frame of the left side window, together with the floor plate and rear frame, forms a triangular or near-triangular frame structure, which improves the strength of the left frame and ensures it meets the safety performance requirements for vibration fatigue and FOPS. Similarly, the lower frame of the right side window connects to the lowest point of the right front pillar assembly, maximizing the right-side field of vision. Moreover, the lower frame of the right side window, together with the floor plate and rear frame, forms a triangular or near-triangular frame structure, which improves the strength of the right frame and ensures it meets the safety performance requirements for vibration fatigue and FOPS. Thus, the safety performance requirements for vibration fatigue and FOPS can be met without thickening the front pillar assembly.

[0095] To meet the thermal comfort requirements inside the driver's cab, the arrangement of air ducts and air outlets needs to be optimized based on the simulation results. A first air duct 19 is set in the left front pillar frame of the left front pillar assembly, and a first air outlet 20 connected to the first air duct 19 is set on the decorative part of the left front pillar assembly. A second air duct 23 is set in the right front pillar frame of the right front pillar assembly, and a second air outlet 24 connected to the second air duct 23 is set between the pillars of the right front pillar assembly.

[0096] The plane formed by connecting the left front control box assembly and the lower window frame of the left side window is set to be nearly parallel to the optimal field of vision line when the driver, sitting in the driver's seat 10, turns his head to the left, so as to reduce the impact on the driver's side and lower field of vision.

[0097] The left and right front pillar assemblies are designed using the field of vision line. The pillar frames of both the left and right front pillar assemblies are made of standard profiles. The digital model is optimized by combining the results of vehicle body vibration fatigue simulation analysis to ensure that the left and right front pillar frames use the least amount of material and have the smallest obstruction angle, while meeting the requirements of vibration fatigue and FOPS. In addition, the designed decorative parts are all within the field of vision line of the obstruction angle, so as to minimize the impact on the field of vision.

[0098] In addition, the installation of a falling object protection device above the roof, a bottom protective grille above the bottom viewing window, and a front guard net 25 in front of the front viewing window effectively protects the cab and improves its safety performance. Furthermore, the connection points between the frame of the front guard net 25 and the roof 1 and floor 2 are all located in areas not visible to the driver to avoid affecting the driver's vision.

[0099] It should be noted that the above-mentioned cab is a cab where the driver's seat 10 is located on the left side of the cab, that is, the cab is a left-side cab; of course, the driver's seat 10 of the above-mentioned cab can also be located on the right side of the cab, that is, the cab is a right-side cab, and the other structures of the right-side cab can be mirror-symmetrical with the other structures of the left-side cab.
