[0031] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0032] Example 1
[0033] This embodiment provides a quick connection device, such as Figure 1 and 4 As shown, it includes a housing 3 and a hydraulic cylinder 7, a locking hook 8, a fixing mechanism and an actuator installed on the housing 3.
[0034] like Figure 4 As shown, the housing is provided with one end of the front hook 3.2 as the front end and the other end as the rear end.
[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the lock hook 8 is rotatably connected to the front end of the housing 3 and cooperates with the front hook claw 3.2 to lock or unlock the front pin of the attachment. Specifically, the lock hook 8 is provided with a pin hole 8a, and the front end of the housing 3 is provided with a lock hook fixing seat 3.1. The lock hook 8 is rotatably connected to the lock hook fixing seat 3.1 via a first pin 13 that passes through the pin hole 8a.
[0036] like Figure 1As shown, the actuator mechanism includes a first actuator rod 6a, a second actuator rod 6b, and a transmission pin 14. The first and second actuator rods 6a and 6b are located on either side of the lock hook 8. The transmission pin 14 extends through the lock hook 8 through a retaining slot 8b therein, and its ends are fixedly connected to the first and second actuator rods 6a and 6b, respectively. The first and second actuator rods 6a and 6b drive the transmission pin 14 to move within the retaining slot 8b, thereby driving the lock hook 8 to lock or unlock.
[0037] Furthermore, the limiting groove 8b in the locking hook 8 is V-shaped and includes a rear groove 8b-1 and a front groove 8b-2. When the first and second actuator rods 6a and 6b move rearward to the locked position, the transmission pin 14 moves to the rear groove 8b-1, driving the locking hook 8 to rotate counterclockwise around the first pin 13 until the transmission pin 14 stops moving. At this point, the locking hook end 8c of the locking hook 8 is positioned above the lower surface 3.2a of the front hook 3.2, thereby locking the front pin of the attachment. When the first and second actuator rods 6a and 6b move forward to the unlocked position, the transmission pin 14 moves to the front groove 8b-2, driving the locking hook 8 to rotate clockwise around the first pin 13 until the transmission pin 14 stops moving. At this point, the locking hook end 8c of the locking hook 8 is positioned below the lower surface 3.2a of the front hook 3.2, thereby unlocking the front pin of the attachment.
[0038] The fixing mechanism is arranged at the rear end of the housing 3 and is used to fix the rear end pin of the attachment and cooperate with the actuator to drive the lock hook 8 to perform locking or unlocking operations.
[0039] Furthermore, the fixing mechanism includes a first locking pin 5a, a second locking pin 5b, a guide block 4, a first guide rod 4.1, and a second guide rod 4.2. The first locking pin 5a and the second locking pin 5b are relatively arranged at the rear end of the shell 3, and are used to extend out of the shell 3 and cooperate with the rear fixing seat 3.3 of the shell 3 to fix the rear end pin of the accessory. The guide block 4 is connected to the middle part of the first locking pin 5a and the second locking pin 5b through the second connecting pin 12a and the third connecting pin 12b. The first guide rod 4.1 and the second guide rod 4.2 are fixedly connected to the side of the guide block 4 close to the front hook 3.2, and are arranged relative to the first actuator rod 6a and the second actuator rod 6b, and are used to drive the first actuator rod 6a and the second actuator rod 6b to move forward.
[0040] like Figure 4As shown, the hydraulic cylinder 7 is fixed to the housing 3 via bolts 15. The hydraulic cylinder 7 is connected to a fixing mechanism, driving the fixing mechanism to move back and forth along the housing 3. Specifically, the cylinder piston 7.1 of the hydraulic cylinder 7 is connected to the guide block 4 via a first connecting pin 11, driving the guide block 4 to move back and forth along the housing 3, thereby driving the first locking pin 5a, the second locking pin 5b, the first guide rod 4.1, and the second guide rod 4.2 to move back and forth.
[0041] In this embodiment, when the fixing mechanism moves out of the housing 3, the distance between the fixing mechanism and the first actuator rod 6a and the second actuator rod 6b is not less than the distance the fixing mechanism moves out of the housing 3. Figure 7 and Figure 11 As shown, this is to ensure that even when the first locking pin 5a and the second locking pin 5b are pressed into the housing 3 by the rear end pin of the attachment, the first guide rod 4.1 and the second guide rod 4.2 have not yet contacted or have just contacted the first actuator rod 6a and the second actuator rod 6b, and the unlocking process will not be triggered, ensuring that the failure of the rear end pin of the attachment will not cause the front pin locking to fail. Figure 12 The figure shows a cross-sectional view of the front pin shaft locking when the first guide rod just contacts the first actuator rod.
[0042] In this embodiment, the fixing mechanism drives the first and second actuator rods 6a and 6b to move forward to the unlocked position during the forward movement; and the fixing mechanism moves backward, and the first and second actuator rods 6a and 6b move backward to the locked position by the return spring.
[0043] Furthermore, a third return spring 10a and a fourth return spring 10b are respectively sleeved on the first actuating rod 6a and the second actuating rod 6b, so as to drive the first actuating rod 6a and the second actuating rod 6b to move backward to the starting position.
[0044] When the quick-connect device 2 is properly installed with the attachment, the first and second guide rods 4.1, 4.2 are separated from the first and second actuator rods 6a, 6b. Counterclockwise rotation of the locking hook 8 to activate the lock is achieved by the third and fourth return springs 10a, 10b, rather than by the guide block being rigidly connected to the actuator rod. The advantage of activating the lock by the third and fourth return springs 10a, 10b is that if the front pin of the attachment blocks the rotation of the locking hook 8, only the locking hook 8 becomes stuck. The third and fourth return springs 10a, 10b simply remain in place, leaving the hydraulic cylinder 7 unaffected and allowing the guide block and locking pin to move backward normally.
[0045] A first return spring 9a and a second return spring 9b are respectively mounted on the first locking pin 5a and the second locking pin 5b. One end of the first return spring 9a and the second return spring 9b are connected to the guide block 4, and the other end is connected to the housing 3. These springs are used to drive the first locking pin 5a and the second locking pin 5b to extend out of the housing 3 when the hydraulic cylinder 7 fails.
[0046] like Figure 2 As shown, an indicator 17 is mounted on the side of the guide block 4 to indicate its position. When the cylinder piston 7.1 drives the guide block 4 to the front end, the indicator 17 extends from the housing 3 and can be seen by the driver inside the cab. When the cylinder piston 7.1 drives the guide block 4 to the rear end, the indicator 17 retracts into the housing 3 and is no longer visible to the driver inside the cab.
[0047] When the rear pin of the attachment falls off from the first locking pin 5a and the second locking pin 5b of the quick connection device 2, the quick connection device 2 can ensure that the front pin of the attachment will not fall off. The specific implementation process is as follows:
[0048] During the process of the hydraulic cylinder 7 extending and the guide block 4, the first locking pin 5a and the second locking pin 5b moving backward at the same time, the first actuator rod 6a and the second actuator rod 6b move backward under the action of the reset spring. The transmission pin 14 moves backward together with the first actuator rod 6a and the second actuator rod 6b. In the process of moving backward, the transmission pin 14 forces the lock hook 8 to rotate counterclockwise around the first pin 13, so that the lock hook end 8c of the lock hook 8 is higher than the lower surface 3.2a of the front hook claw of the shell 3. Since the distance between the lock hook end 8c and the upper surface 3.2b of the front hook claw of the shell 3 is smaller than the diameter of the front pin shaft of the attachment, the front pin shaft of the attachment cannot fall off from the front hook claw 3.2 of the shell 3, as shown in FIG. Figure 8 shown.
[0049] In addition, in order to ensure that the above functions can function normally and will not fail due to the force exerted by the front pin of the attachment on the end 8c of the lock hook, the upper limit groove 8b of the lock hook 8 is pressed Figure 8 As shown in the production. Figure 8 As shown, the limiting groove 8b of the lock hook 8 and the transmission pin 14 have a contact point in the first quadrant of the transmission pin 14. If the lock hook 8 rotates clockwise, the contact point on the lock hook 8 will move along the rear lower side, as shown in FIG. Figure 8 Arrow indicating the direction of movement of the center contact point. Because the first and second actuator rods 6a, 6b can only move forward and backward along the housing 3, the drive pin 14 can also only move forward and backward with them. Therefore, in this state, the drive pin 14 cannot move backward and downward. Therefore, the device has a self-locking function, and no matter how much external force the attachment's front pin exerts on the hook end 8c, the front pin's locking will not fail.
[0050] Example 2
[0051] This embodiment provides an engineering machine based on the first embodiment, including a working device 1 , an attachment, and a quick connection device 2 .
[0052] like Figure 5 As shown, the top of the quick-connect device 2 is rotatably connected to the working device 1 via a second pin 1.1 and a third pin 1.2. The hydraulic cylinder 7 is connected to the working device 1 via a hydraulic line 7.2. The driver in the cab controls the quick-connect device 2 by manipulating the working device 1.
[0053] The attachment is detachably connected to the quick-connect device 2. Specifically, when the attachment is connected to the quick-connect device 2, the front pin of the attachment is fixed within the front hook 3.2 and the lock hook 8, and the rear pin of the attachment is fixed between the first locking pin 5a, the second locking pin 5b, and the rear fixing seat 3.3 of the housing 3.
[0054] Example 3
[0055] When the quick-connect device is correctly installed on the working device 1, the driver can install and release the attachment in the cab. The attachment of this embodiment takes the bucket 16 as an example to introduce the installation and removal process of the bucket 16 and the quick-connect device 2.
[0056] (1) Bucket installation process:
[0057] like Figure 6 As shown, the operator operates the working device 1 so that the front hook 3.2 of the housing 3 hooks the front pin 16.1 of the bucket 16. The operator then operates the working device 1 and rotates the quick-connect device 2 so that the rear bucket pin 16.2 contacts the rear mounting seat 3.3 of the housing 3. At this point, the front hook 3.2 on the housing 3 contacts the front bucket pin 16.1, and the rear bucket pin 16.2 contacts the rear mounting seat 3.3 of the housing 3. By controlling the hydraulic line 7.2, the hydraulic cylinder 7 extends, and the cylinder piston 7.1 drives the guide block 4 backward, thereby driving the first locking pin 5a and the second locking pin 5b to extend from the housing 3. The first locking pin 5a and the second locking pin 5b abut against the rear bucket pin 16.2 from below. At this time, the bucket rear pin 16.2 is fixed in the U-shaped space formed by the first locking pin 5a, the second locking pin 5b and the rear fixing seat 3.3 of the housing 3, and the bucket front pin 16.1 is fixed in the front hook 3.2 of the housing 3. The bucket 16 cannot move relative to the quick connection device 2. Figure 7 shown.
[0058] Bucket release process:
[0059] By controlling the hydraulic line 7.2, the cylinder piston 7.1 is retracted, and the cylinder piston 7.1 drives the guide block 4, and then drives the first locking pin 5a and the second locking pin 5b to retract into the housing 3. At this time, there is no first locking pin 5a and the second locking pin 5b below the bucket rear pin 16.2. Then, the driver in the cab operates the working device 1 and rotates the quick connection device 2 clockwise to achieve Figure 6 The state shown. When the hydraulic cylinder 7 is retracted to the shortest state, the first guide rod 4.1 and the second guide rod 4.2 press the first actuator rod 6a and the second actuator rod 6b to the front. The first actuator rod 6a and the second actuator rod 6b drive the transmission pin 14 to move forward until the transmission pin 14 contacts the front end groove 8b-2 on the lock hook 8. In the process of the transmission pin 14 moving forward, the transmission pin 14 presses the lock hook 8 to rotate clockwise around the first pin 13, causing the end 8c of the lock hook to be lower than the lower surface 3.2a of the front hook claw of the housing 3, so that the front pin locking state is released, as shown in FIG. Figure 9-10 Then the driver in the cab operates the quick connection device 2 to separate the quick connection device 2 from the bucket 16, that is, the bucket 16 is released.
