Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of excavators, and in particular to an active vibration suppression system for an excavator boom. Background Art

[0002] The excavator is composed of a working device, a platform, and a traveling device. The working device includes a boom, a dipper, a bucket, a connecting rod, a rocker, and a connecting cylinder. When working, the posture of each component of the working device is changed by changing the length of the cylinder, thereby realizing the operation of the whole machine. The boom is the main component of the front working device of the excavator. Different changes in its structural form can enable the excavator to achieve a variety of different functions, thereby meeting a variety of operating requirements.

[0003] During the construction process, the boom of the excavator often vibrates due to the impact of transient impact loads. This vibration not only affects the working performance and efficiency of the excavator, but may also cause cracks in the boom or cause its strength and rigidity to exceed the load-bearing range, thus affecting the working safety of the excavator.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide an active vibration suppression system for an excavator boom to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the disadvantages of the prior art and provide an active vibration suppression system for an excavator boom.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, a technical solution adopted by the present invention is: to provide an active vibration suppression system for an excavator boom, comprising a boom mechanism, the boom mechanism comprising a top plate, a bottom plate and two sets of side plates, the upper surfaces of the two sets of side plates are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the top plate, the lower surfaces of the two sets of side plates are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the bottom plate, one end of the boom mechanism is hinged with a working arm, and further comprising;

[0009] The unloading mechanism is located at the connection between the movable arm mechanism and the working arm, and is used to suppress the vibration of the movable arm mechanism caused by the impact of transient impact loads. The unloading mechanism includes an arc plate, and the arc plate is movably fitted with the surface of the working arm.

[0010] Further: the surface of the working arm is provided with an arc surface, one side of the arc plate is movably fitted with the arc surface, a column is fixedly installed on the other side of the arc plate, a first fixed plate is fixedly installed in the middle of one end of the top plate and the bottom plate, a through groove is opened on the surface of the first fixed plate, the column is slidably connected inside the through groove, a first spring is fixedly installed on the surface of the arc plate, the column passes through the inside of the first spring, the other end of the first spring is fixedly connected to the surface of the first fixed plate, a movable plate is slidably connected in the middle of the top plate and the bottom plate, a slide groove is opened on one side of the movable plate, a slider is fixedly installed on one end of the column, and the slider is slidably connected inside the slide groove.

[0020] Further: the reinforcement plate mechanism is arranged in four groups, and the four groups of reinforcement plate mechanisms are symmetrically installed on the left and right sides of the central connecting mechanism.

[0021] Through the above technical solution, the reinforcing plate mechanism is evenly arranged inside the movable arm mechanism, thereby effectively improving the overall strength of the movable arm mechanism.

[0022] Furthermore: the reinforcing plate mechanism and the central connecting mechanism are entirely made of maraging steel or titanium alloy.

[0023] Through the above technical solution, the materials of the reinforcing plate mechanism and the central connecting mechanism can be set to maraging steel or titanium alloy. Maraging steel has excellent yield strength and tensile strength, and titanium alloy has the advantages of low density, high strength and corrosion resistance.

[0024] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
