Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of excavators, and in particular to an excavating arm. Background Art
[0002] With my country's rapid economic development, the demand for railway tunnel construction is increasing. In addition to the commonly used shield tunneling machines (TBMs), the market is also seeing a surge in demand for bucket-type TBMs for non-explosive excavation. The application of construction machinery is crucial and important in today's mechanical construction sector, particularly in industrial and civil construction, water conservancy and hydropower projects, farmland reconstruction projects, oilfield and port infrastructure development, transportation networks, mining operations, and a range of modern military projects. These projects generally rely on a range of high-performance machinery, including but not limited to tunneling equipment, loaders, and tower cranes, to ensure efficiency, quality, and safety. TBMs, due to their high level of technological integration, versatile functionality, high efficiency, robust operational capabilities, and wide range of applications, significantly reduce the physical burden on workers, while also reducing construction costs and ensuring timely and quality completion. Consequently, hydraulic TBMs are playing an increasingly important role in construction.
[0003] In actual engineering practice, the following problems exist:
[0004] 1. Excavators of the prior art, in which the arm performs a bending action to dig deeper (such as the present invention) Figure 3 ) When the actuator moves, a large torque is generated, which will cause a large load on related components, thereby reducing stability and shortening service life.
[0005] Second, in the prior art excavator, there are multiple pivot shafts, and when the corresponding pivot holes are worn, they are difficult to replace and maintain because the pivot holes are connected to the base and other components as a whole.
[0006] 3. Excavators in the prior art require different digging angles under different working conditions, for example Figure 1 In the case of excavation in a horizontal position such as a tunnel or wall, the arm is set in a relatively horizontal position, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 The working condition of the curved arm excavating the ground is shown, and the arm is set in a relatively curved position; the requirements under different working conditions are different. Figure 1 The working conditions shown require a more stable load-bearing capacity. Figure 3 The operating conditions shown need to be more flexible; there is a lack of a simple means of switching requirements when switching to another operating condition after maintaining the same operating condition for a long time.

A top plate is provided above the outer cover, and a limiting portion is provided inside the outer cover. An adjustment portion is detachably connected above the limiting portion, and an opening is provided in the front of the outer cover. The adjustment portion can be placed into the outer cover through the opening; the telescopic cylinder passes through the opening and one end is fixed inside the outer cover, and the execution end of the telescopic cylinder drives the transmission rod to move.
[0011] Preferably, the stopper is detachably connected to the outer ring portion.
[0012] Preferably, the top plate comprises a curved surface.
[0013] Preferably, the number of the rocker rods is two.
[0014] Preferably, a connecting shaft is provided between the two rocker arms.
[0015] Preferably, the transmission rod is connected to the connecting shaft.

[0019] Preferably, one plate portion is provided at each end of the fixing block.
[0020] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0021] Invention point 1: Regarding the first point raised in the background technology, the technical means adopted is: in the prior art, a pivot seat is generally provided on the base of the excavator for connecting the bottom of the hydraulic cylinder. Invention point 1 sets a block in the pivot seat to limit the pivot angle of the main oil cylinder, thereby providing more stable support to resist the larger torque caused by the bending action.
[0022] At the same time, a series of blocks of different sizes are set up to adapt to different limit angles, and a placement portion is further set on the support to place blocks of different sizes, so that there is no need to go to the tool library to find blocks of different specifications, which facilitates quick replacement at the construction site.
[0023] Point 2 of the invention: In response to the first point raised in the background technology, the second technical means adopted is: in the existing technology, the telescopic cylinder generally pivots at one position, and the force it provides to the entire arm also comes from one point. Point 2 of the invention is to disperse the force or torque provided by this one point to multiple components. When the excavating arm digs deep and swings the head, the force is more evenly dispersed through the triangular blocks, thereby providing a more stable and stronger structure.
[0024] Invention point three, in response to the second point raised in the background technology, the pivot seats in the prior art are all set on the base, and the present invention lifts the pivot seat away from the base to provide a larger disassembly and assembly space; at the same time, the pivot seat that is not easy to disassemble and assemble is decomposed into a fixed part and a disassembly part, and the disassembly part can be directly disassembled during disassembly; in addition, the wear when the shaft and the shaft hole are matched is mostly caused by the skewness of the shaft, so the wear of the shaft hole occurs at the outer edge of the shaft hole, so the invention point three sets the disassembly and assembly part on the outside of the corresponding shaft hole, and when wear occurs, the wear position is located in the hole on the plate body of the sub-plate, and only the sub-plate needs to be disassembled and replaced, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly.
[0025] Invention point four, in response to the first and second points raised in the background technology (i.e., invention point one and invention point three), invention point four makes an organic combination, and integrates the stop block mentioned in invention point one and the disassembly and assembly part (sub-plate) mentioned in invention point three through the overall structure, so that the stop block and the disassembly and assembly part form an organic whole, making the structure simpler, and realizing the functions of two parts through one component; at the same time, through the setting of the sub-plate, the strength of the main board is enhanced; in addition, through the setting of the outer plate, it can be directly connected to the circular ring on the pivot seat (in the prior art, only half of the ring can be connected to the plate, such as the fixed part, and a whole ring cannot be formed), thereby enhancing the strength and thickness of the pivot seat, and thus integrating four functions through one component.
[0026] Point 5 of the invention: In response to the third point raised in the background technology, an adjustment part is provided under the telescopic cylinder to adjust the support height below the cylinder. After the adjustment part is raised, better support force can be provided for the cylinder. After the adjustment part is removed, a larger space can be provided for the cylinder to rotate flexibly, thereby providing a structure that is convenient for adjustment and easy to disassemble and assemble.
