DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] 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; it is obvious that the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments, and all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0036] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "inner", "outer", "top / bottom" and the like indicate positions or positional relationships based on the positions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific position, be constructed and operated in a specific position, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present invention. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0037] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly stipulated and limited, the terms "installed", "provided with", "installed / connected", "connected", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "connection" can be a wall-mounted connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection. It can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection. It can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. It can be the internal connection of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0038] As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present invention provides an impact hammer for a pile driver, including a hammer body 1, a hammer shoe 2 and a fixing member 3. In general, the hammer body 1 has a plurality of hammer limbs 11 extending radially outward. The outer periphery of the hammer limb 11 is configured with a connecting surface 111. A plurality of hammer shoes 2 are detachably fixed to the connecting surface 111 using the fixing member 3. A plurality of hammer shoes 2 on the same connecting surface 111 form a hammer shoe group, and the thickness of the hammer shoe group is adjustable along the diameter direction of the hammer body 1 to construct different drilling diameters. The hammer body 1 is also provided with a hollow hammer cap 4 at the top to install counterweights of different specifications to achieve adjustable weight of the impact hammer.

[0039] The following text, in conjunction with the diagrams, describes in detail the specific structure of each component and their interconnection relationship.

[0040] The hammer body 1 extends radially outwardly to form a plurality of hammer limbs 11, which form a claw-shaped structure as a whole. As a prior art, the specific structure of the hammer body 1 itself is not described in detail herein. As shown in the figure, the outer periphery of the hammer limb 11 is structured with a connecting surface 111. The hammer shoe 2 fits on the connecting surface 111 to achieve a closed connection with the hammer limb 11. Specifically, in this embodiment, the plurality of connecting surfaces 111 are all located on a cylindrical surface formed with the axis of the hammer body 1 as the center, that is, the connecting surface 111 extends in a direction parallel to the axis of the hammer body 1, and the radius of any two connecting surfaces 111 to the axis of the hammer body 1 is equal. This structure is conducive to directly equating the thickness increase or decrease of the hammer shoe 2 to the change in the drilling diameter of the impact hammer. It can be understood that as long as it can fit with the hammer shoe 2, the shape of the connecting surface 111 should not be limited. It can be a regular plane or arc surface, or it can be constructed as an irregular shape to improve the bite effect with the hammer shoe 2.

[0041] As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the total thickness of the hammer shoe group fixed on each connection surface 111 is obtained by stacking several hammer shoes 2. In this embodiment, the thickness of the hammer shoe 2 is equal, which can be 5 cm, 7.5 cm, 10 cm... and other values ​​that are convenient for cumulative calculation. It should be understood that as long as the hammer body 1 can adapt to different drilling diameters by stacking the hammer shoes 2, the thickness specifications of the hammer shoes 2 should not be limited. For example, in other implementations, one hammer shoe group can be composed of three hammer shoes 2 of different thicknesses of 5 cm, two hammer shoes of 10 cm, one hammer shoe of 15 cm..., etc., so as to be combined according to actual needs. Furthermore, the total thickness of the hammer shoe group fixed on each connection surface 111 can also be adjusted by replacing the hammer shoe 2, that is, one hammer shoe group can include hammer shoes 2 of different thicknesses such as 10 cm, 15 cm, 20 cm, 25 cm, etc. If the pile diameter is 40 cm wider than the hammer body 1, a 20 cm thick hammer shoe 2 is fixed on each of the connection surfaces 111; if the pile diameter is 50 cm wider than the hammer body 1, a 25 cm thick hammer shoe 2 is fixed on each of the connection surfaces 111, and so on. In this embodiment, in order to make the pile hole finally drilled as close to a circle as possible, the hammer shoe 2 is constructed as a circular arc as a whole.

[0042] As shown in the figure, the fixing member 3 includes a connecting rod 31, a second pin 320 and a third pin 330. In this embodiment, the second limiting member 32 adopts the second pin 320, and the third limiting member 33 adopts the third pin 330. The connecting rod 31 is inserted into the connecting surface 111 along the diameter direction of the hammer body 1, and is in airtight sliding connection with the hammer limb 11. The hammer shoe 2 is provided with a clearance cavity 21 along the thickness direction, so as to be sleeved on the surface of the connecting rod 31 to achieve airtight sliding connection with the connecting rod 31. The connecting rod 31 is provided with a third clearance hole 312 at one end away from the hammer limb 11, and the third pin 330 penetrates the third clearance hole 312 and extends a length of the connecting rod 31 to limit the hammer shoe 2 from falling off from the connecting rod 31 in the direction away from the hammer limb 11. The hammer limb 11 is provided with a pair of fourth clearance holes 112 within the penetration length range of the connecting rod 31. Correspondingly, the connecting rod 31 is provided with a plurality of second clearance holes 311 at intervals along the penetration direction. During actual installation, after pushing the connecting rod 31 to make the hammer shoe 2 fit the connecting surface 111, the second pin 320 is simultaneously passed through the fourth clearance hole 112 and a specific second clearance hole 311, and the connecting rod 31 is restricted from sliding further by latch-type cooperation, so that the hammer shoe 2 is fixed to the outer periphery of the hammer limb 11. It is not difficult to understand that when the second pin 320 exits the fourth clearance hole 112 and the second clearance hole 311, the connecting rod 31 can slide relative to the hammer limb 11 to remove or continue to add the hammer shoe 2.

[0043] In order to ensure that the hammer shoe 2 can be exactly fitted on the connecting surface 111 when being fixed, the spacing distribution of the second clearance through holes 311 and the thickness arrangement of the hammer shoe 2 must match each other. Specifically, in this embodiment, since the hammer shoe 2 of equal thickness is used, the spacing between any two adjacent second clearance through holes 311 is equal to the thickness of the hammer shoe 2, and the distance from the third clearance through hole 312 to the nearest second clearance through hole 311 is also equal to the thickness of the hammer shoe 2.

[0044] Furthermore, in order to prevent the second pin 320 or the third pin 330 from falling off under strong vibration when it is inserted into the connecting rod 31, the second pin 320 and the third pin 330 are folded at both ends so as to be stuck on both sides of the above-mentioned limiting hole.

[0045] As an equivalent replacement of the present embodiment, in other embodiments, the fourth clearance through hole 112 and the second clearance through hole 311 can be interchanged, that is, one second clearance through hole 311 is provided on the connecting rod 31, and a plurality of the fourth clearance through holes 112 are provided at intervals along the penetration direction of the hammer limb 11 along the connecting rod 31. Similarly, the spacing distribution of the fourth clearance through holes 112 and the thickness arrangement of the hammer shoe 2 must match each other. The second pin 320 is still used between the connecting rod 31 and the hammer limb 11 for latch-type engagement. In other embodiments, the third limiting member 33 can also be an end plate provided at the end of the connecting rod 31. The end plate is fixed to an end face of the connecting rod 31 away from the hammer limb 11, and extends a certain width to limit the hammer shoe 2 from detaching from the connecting rod 31 in the direction away from the hammer limb 11.

[0046] In another embodiment, the fixing member 3 may be a screw. The surface of the screw is provided with threads. The hammer shoe 2 is provided with a first through hole along the thickness direction to be sleeved on the surface of the screw. The inner diameter of the first through hole is not less than the outer diameter of the thread, so that the hammer shoe 2 is slidably connected to the screw. The screw is provided with a nut at the end away from the hammer limb 11 to limit the hammer shoe 2 from detaching from the screw in the direction away from the hammer limb 11. The hammer limb 11 is provided with a section of threaded inner groove inwardly from the connecting surface 111, and the screw is fixed to the connecting surface 111 by cooperating with the thread of the threaded inner groove. This fixing method not only has a stable connection, but also allows the hammer shoe 2 to be quickly disassembled and assembled.

[0047] A hollow hammer cap 4 is provided on the top of the hammer body 1, and a pair of openings 42 are provided on the side wall of the hammer cap 4 for the rope to pass through and lift the impact hammer. As a prior art, this article does not elaborate on this part of the structure. As shown in the figure, a counterweight block can be accommodated in the hollow cavity of the hammer cap 4. In order to prevent the counterweight block from separating from the hammer cap 4 during operation, the impact hammer is also provided with a first limiter 5. The first limiter 5 is engaged with the hammer cap 4 in a latch-like manner through a pair of first clearance through holes 41 on the side wall of the hammer cap 4, thereby fixing the counterweight block. The height of the first clearance through hole 41 is not lower than the placement height of the counterweight block. Similarly, in order to prevent the first limiter 5 from falling off during the punching operation, first pins 50 are provided at both ends of the first limiter 5, and the first pin 50 is bent at both ends to more stably fix the first limiter 5. The first stopper 5 can be in various forms. For example, in other embodiments, the first stopper can be a snap-on end cap, which can be detachably fixed to the top of the hammer cap 4. The first stopper 5 can also be a cork stopper, which can easily achieve a sealed connection and separation with the hammer cap 4. It should be understood that the first stopper 5 is described in this article to reflect the feasibility of the technical solution. As a non-core essential point, this article does not limit it.

[0048] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation mode of the present invention, and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any technical equivalent changes made using the contents of the present invention specification shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
