Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of shovel teeth technology, specifically to an easily replaceable excavator shovel tooth. Background Technology

[0002] Excavator teeth are a critical component of an excavator, located at the front of the bucket and directly in contact with the excavated and loaded materials. Designed to provide optimal digging and loading efficiency while ensuring durability and safety, teeth are typically made of high-strength alloy steel or other special materials to meet the demands of high-intensity operation in harsh environments. Their shape and size vary depending on the excavator model and application requirements. During excavation, teeth are primarily used to cut and loosen soil, rocks, or other materials, making them easier to load into the bucket. Therefore, the design of the teeth must consider the material's cutting and penetrating properties, as well as its impact on the bucket and the overall machine structure. To improve durability, teeth are often heat-treated or subjected to other surface treatments to enhance their hardness and wear resistance. Furthermore, regular inspection and maintenance of the teeth are crucial for ensuring the excavator's long-term efficient operation; damaged or worn teeth need to be replaced promptly to prevent further damage to the bucket or the entire machine.

Detailed Implementation

[0029] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] Example 1 aims to address the problem of shovel teeth suffering severe wear and impact during digging and loading operations, leading to wear or damage after prolonged use and affecting their function and performance. Severely worn shovel teeth reduce digging efficiency, increase fuel consumption, and may cause damage to other components. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1-9 An easily replaceable excavator shovel tooth includes a bucket body 110 and a shovel tooth body 150. The shovel tooth body 150 is mounted on the side of the bucket body 110. A first mounting groove 130 is formed on the side of the shovel tooth body 150, and a second mounting groove 160 is formed on the side of the bucket body 110. A first engaging component 140 is provided between the first mounting groove 130 and the second mounting groove 160. A second engaging component 170 is provided inside the first mounting groove 130. The first engaging component 140 and the second engaging component 170 cooperate with each other. The cooperation between the first mounting groove 130 and the second mounting groove 160 and the first engaging component 140, as well as the second engaging component 170 inside the first engaging component 140, provides a strong connection. This design ensures a firm connection between the bucket body 110 and the shovel tooth body 150, and the connection remains stable even under high load and vibration environments, preventing loosening or detachment.

[0031] The shovel tooth body 150 includes a clamping plate 151 and a tooth tip 176. The clamping plate 151 is installed on the side of the tooth tip 176 and includes a first clamping plate 152 and a second clamping plate 153. The first clamping plate 152 is connected to the side of the tooth tip 176, and the second clamping plate 153 is connected to the other side of the tooth tip 176. The first clamping plate 152 and the second clamping plate 153 cooperate with each other. The side of the bucket body 110 has a slot 111, which communicates with a second mounting slot 160. The first clamping plate 152 and the second clamping plate 153 are engaged with the side of the slot 111. The first mounting slot 130 and the second mounting slot 160 are respectively set as threaded slots. The threaded connection provides a more secure connection, making the connection between the shovel tooth body 150 and the bucket body 110 more stable. This helps to reduce loosening caused by vibration or impact during excavator operation and enhances the reliability and durability of the connection.

[0032] The first engaging assembly 140 includes an engaging cylinder 141 and an engaging disc 142. The engaging cylinder 141 is slidably engaged between the first mounting groove 130 and the second mounting groove 160. The engaging cylinder 141 is disposed inside the first mounting groove 130 and the second mounting groove 160. The engaging disc 142 is connected to the end of the engaging cylinder 141 and is disposed on the side of the bucket body 110. The engaging cylinder 141 is configured as a threaded cylinder and is threadedly engaged with the first mounting groove 130 and the second mounting groove 160. The engaging disc 142 is fitted against the side of the bucket body 110, and a friction pad 120 is connected between the engaging disc 142 and the bucket body 110.

[0033] The engaging cylinder 141 has a third mounting groove 143 on its side. Several third mounting grooves 143 are provided, and each of these grooves houses a second engaging component 170. Two protrusions 144 are connected inside each third mounting groove 143. The presence of multiple second engaging components 170 within the third mounting grooves 143 increases the number of connection points, making the connection between the engaging cylinder 141 and other components more secure. Simultaneously, the presence of the protrusions 144 further enhances the stability of the connection, preventing loosening or detachment during excavator operation.

[0034] The second engaging assembly 170 includes an engaging plate 171 and a pressing block 172. The engaging plate 171 is disposed between two protrusions 144. Spring grooves 173 are respectively provided on the sides of the two protrusions 144. A telescopic post 174 is connected between the engaging plate 171 and the spring grooves 173. A spring 175 is sleeved on the outside of the telescopic post 174. The pressing block 172 is configured as an inclined block.

[0035] In this embodiment: The first engaging component 140 and the second engaging component 170 are used to mate the shovel tooth body 150 with the slot 111. The first engaging component 140 is then inserted into the first mounting slot 130 and the second mounting slot 160, and they are threaded together. The rotating column 163 is then threaded into the inside of the engaging cylinder 141, simultaneously pushing the pressing block 172 upwards and causing the engaging plate 171 to move upwards, engaging with the first sliding slot 131 and the second sliding slot 161. When disassembling, rotating the rotating column 163 causes the spring 175 to drive the telescopic column 174, simultaneously pulling the engaging plate 171 back into position, thus unlocking the shovel tooth. This ensures that the shovel tooth is securely and reliably installed on the excavator, preventing loosening or detachment. This is crucial for the stability and safety of the excavator in heavy-duty working environments. It solves the problem that shovel teeth suffer severe wear and impact during digging and loading operations, leading to wear or damage after long-term use, affecting their function and performance. Severely worn shovel teeth reduce digging efficiency, increase fuel consumption, and may cause damage to other components.

[0036] Example 2, this example aims to facilitate the resolution of the problem of accidental loosening. This example is an improvement on Example 1. For details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1-9 The first mounting groove 130 has a first sliding groove 131 on its side, and the first mounting groove 130 is connected to the second mounting groove 160. The second mounting groove 160 has a second sliding groove 161 on its side, and the second mounting groove 160 is connected to the second sliding groove 161. Several locking plates 171 are provided, and the several locking plates 171 are respectively slidably locked with the first sliding groove 131 and the second sliding groove 161. The first mounting groove 130, the second mounting groove 160 and the locking plates 171 with the sliding locking design can enhance the flexibility and stability of the connection, reduce stress concentration, simplify the installation and disassembly process, thereby improving the overall performance and service life of the excavator.

[0037] In this embodiment, the friction pad 120, in conjunction with the second engaging component 170 and the first engaging component 140, increases the friction between the engaging disc 142 and the bucket body 110. This makes it less likely for the engaging disc 142 and the bucket body 110 to loosen. By increasing friction, the friction pad 120 reduces loosening and shaking between the engaging disc 142 and the bucket body 110, thereby improving safety during operation. It reduces the possibility of accidental loosening and lowers the risk of injury to operators and those nearby.

[0038] Example 3 aims to address the complexity of the operation. This example is an improvement upon Example 1. For details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1-9 The engaging cylinder 141 has a third sliding groove 162 inside, which is a threaded groove. A rotating column 163 is installed inside the third sliding groove 162, and the rotating column 163 has a threaded section. The end of the rotating column 163 is a piston end. The rotating column 163 rotates with the third sliding groove 162, and the rotating column 163 intermittently engages with the pressing block 172. The threaded section increases the stability of the connection, ensuring a firm connection between the rotating column 163 and the third sliding groove 162. During excavator operation, this stable connection effectively transmits force and withstands vibration, maintaining the reliability and stability of the connection.

[0039] A connecting cylinder 121 is connected to the side of the locking disc 142. The interior of the connecting cylinder 121 is configured as a threaded cylinder. An operating disc 122 is connected to the end of the rotating column 163. A short column 123 is connected to the side of the operating disc 122. The short column 123 is configured as a threaded column, and the short column 123 is threaded with the connecting cylinder 121. The threaded connection provides a reliable connection method. The threaded cylinder inside the connecting cylinder 121 and the threaded column 123 can firmly connect the locking disc 142 and the operating disc 122 together. This connection method can withstand various forces and vibrations during excavator operation, maintain connection stability, and avoid failures caused by loose connections.

[0040] In this embodiment, the arrangement of the short column 123 and the connecting cylinder 121, the cooperation of the short column 123, the connecting cylinder 121, the first engaging component 140, and the second engaging component 170, along with the multi-threaded connection, prevents the operating disc 122 from easily loosening from the bucket body 110 during engagement. The multi-threaded connection design simplifies and speeds up the installation and disassembly process. Operators only need to rotate the threads to connect or disconnect, reducing operational complexity and time consumption, thus improving the overall solution.
