DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0036] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the specific implementation methods of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0037] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention, but the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art may make similar generalizations without violating the connotation of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0038] Reference Figures 1 to 11 The present invention comprises a short coupler with a buffer device, comprising:
[0039] The hook part includes a hook body 1, a hook lock 2 inserted transversely into the hook body 1, an axle pin 3 inserted into the side of the hook body 1, a small cotter pin 4 inserted transversely into one end of the axle pin 3, a lock lift 5 inserted into one side of the hook body 1, and one end of the lock lift 5 located in the hook body 1 extends to the hook lock 2, and a hook release spring 6 sleeved on the hook lock 2 and located in the hook body 1; and the hook body 1 has an outer contour similar to a Willison hook and is the main body of the hook. Other parts of the hook such as the hook lock 2, the axle pin 3, the small cotter pin 4, the lock lift 5 and the hook release spring 6 are all installed on the hook body 1. Under normal circumstances, the hook body 1 plays a connecting role, and the hook body 1 plays a swinging role when the mine car is running in a non-linear manner;
[0040] The buffer device includes an impact seat 13 connected to the coupler frame, and the end of the hook body 1 extends into the impact seat 13, a rear follower plate 14 inserted between the impact seat 13 and the coupler frame, two groups of buffer components 10 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the rear follower plate 14, two groups of connecting pins 11 inserted on both sides of the impact seat 13, a large cotter pin 12 inserted on the connecting pin 11, a tail push block 7 arranged in the impact seat 13 and one end extending into the hook body 1, a tail spring 8 laterally abutting against the top end of the tail push block 7, and the tail spring 8 extends outward into the hook body 1, and a tail pin 9 vertically inserted on the tail push block 7, and both ends of the tail pin 9 extend outward through the hook body 1 to the upper and lower sides of the rear follower plate 14.
[0041] During use, the device is composed of a coupler part and a buffer device. When in use, the device as a whole will be fixed on the coupler frame of the mine car. Two mine cars equipped with the device can be connected by two sets of the device. In order to distinguish the working status of the two sets of devices (such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown in the figure, special markings “′” will be added to replace the same component names (such as auxiliary hook body 1′, auxiliary lock head 21′, auxiliary inclined surface 19′, etc.).
[0042] Among them, Figure 5 As shown, the hook body 1 is provided with a hollow cavity, which is divided into an upper cavity 161 and a lower cavity 151. A long opening 16 communicating with the outside is provided at the top of the upper end, and the unhooking spring 6 extends through the long opening 16 to the internal cavity of the hook body 1. A boss 15 is provided inside the lower cavity 151, and one end of the unhooking spring 6 abuts against the boss 15. The hook body 1 is formed as a whole by a casting process, and its outer contour is similar to a Willison hook. The Willison hook can maintain a stable connection under various loads and motion conditions, reduce collisions and vibrations, and improve transportation safety.
[0043] Further, such as Figure 4 As shown, the lower end of the hook body 1 is a strip structure, and the cavity is opened in the strip structure, the top end is an obtuse triangle structure with the longest side facing upward, the longest side is an inclined surface 19, a hook groove 17 opening outward is opened at the center of the inclined surface 19, a hook head 18 is fixedly arranged on one side of the opening of the hook groove 17, the hook head 18 protrudes outward and is located on the outside of the inclined surface 19, an A hole 191 is opened in the vertical direction at the connection position of the strip structure and the obtuse triangle structure, and a B hole 192 is opened in the horizontal direction at the same position, the A hole 191 and the B hole 192 are staggered and do not overlap, and F long holes 193 are opened in the vertical direction on both sides of the end of the strip structure.
[0044] During use, combine Figure 4 and Figure 5The hook lock 2 and the unhooking spring 6 inserted into the hook lock 2 are inserted along the long opening 16 at the front end of the hook body 1, and the other end of the unhooking spring 6 is against the top of the internal boss 15 of the hook body 1, and is installed in the upper cavity 161 of the hook body 1 with a certain pre-pressure; the lock lift 5 is inserted into the A hole 191 of the hook body 1, and the shaft pin 3 passes through the B hole 192 of the hook body 1, and the hook body 1 and the lock lift 5 are fixedly connected together and locked with a small cotter pin 4; the F long hole 193 is fixedly connected to the rear plate 14 through the tail pin 9.
[0045] Among them, Figure 6 As shown, the hook lock 2 includes a lock head 21 vertically located in the hook groove 17, a long rod 22 fixedly connected to one side of the lock head 21 and extending into the cavity of the hook body 1, and an E hole 23 laterally opened at the connection position between the lock head 21 and the long rod 22, and the lock lift 5 is inserted into the E hole 23.
[0046] During use, the lock head 21 plays the role of locking and unlocking the hook. It does not bear the pulling force between the hooks in the moving direction of the mine car, but only bears the lateral mutual squeezing force. The long rod 22 provides elastic guidance for the unhooking spring 6, and the E hole 23 provides an unhooking fulcrum for the lock handle 5.
[0047] Among them, Figure 7 As shown, the lock lift 5 includes a lifting hook 51 inserted into the E hole 23, and the top end of the lifting hook 51 extends upward, and the extended portion is perpendicular to the lifting hook 51, a C hole 52 is opened at a lower position of the outwardly extended portion of the lifting hook 51, and the axle pin 3 passes through the C hole 52, and a D hole 53 is opened at the top end of the outwardly extended portion of the lifting hook 51.
[0048] During use, the lifting hook 51 is inserted into the E hole 23 of the hook lock 2; the axle pin 3 passes through the C hole 52 of the lock lift 5 to securely connect the hook body 1 and the lock lift 5 together, and is locked with a small cotter pin 4, and the D hole 53 of the lock lift 5 is connected to the hook lifting device of the coupler, and the hook lifting device is pulled, and the lifting hook 51 pulls back the lock head 21 to complete the unhooking action.
[0049] Among them, Figure 8 As shown, the tail push block 7 is an overall "H"-shaped structure, the empty slots above the "H"-shaped structure are cylindrical holes 71, and one end of the tail spring 8 extends into the cylindrical hole 71, the empty slots below are open holes 72, and the tail pin 9 passes through the open hole 72, and the outer end surfaces of the two lower legs of the "H"-shaped structure are provided with arc surfaces 73.
[0050] During use, the cylindrical hole 71 is the mounting hole of the tail spring 8; the tail pin 9 passes through the H hole 143 of the rear follower plate 14, the F long hole 193 of the hook body 1 and the opening hole 72 of the tail push block 7, and the rear follower plate 14 and the hook body 1 are fixed together, and the tail spring 8 is installed in the lower cavity 151 of the hook body 1 with a certain pre-pressure; the two arc surfaces 73 are in tangential contact with the two protrusions 144 in the rear follower plate 14, and have a fixed length function to ensure the distance between the mine cars. At the same time, the tail push block 7 can drive the tail spring 8 and the hook body 1 to swing together.
[0051] Among them, combined Fig. 9 and Fig.10 The buffer component 10 is composed of two groups of end buffer plates and multiple groups of middle buffer plates. The end buffer plates are composed of a metal plate 101 and a rubber plate 102 bonded together, and the middle buffer plate is composed of a metal plate 101 and two rubber plates 102 bonded together, and the two rubber plates 102 on the middle buffer plate are respectively bonded to the two sides of the metal plate 101, one side of the rubber plate 102 is attached to the metal plate 101, and the two ends of the other side are respectively provided with protrusions 103 and pits 104, and the structures of the protrusions 103 and the pits 104 match; the side of the end buffer plate with the rubber plate 102 is abutted against the rubber plate 102 on the outer side of the middle buffer plate, and the two are matched and positioned by their respective protrusions 103 and pits 104; the difference between the end buffer plate and the middle buffer plate is that the end has the rubber plate 102 only on one side, while the middle buffer plate has the rubber plate 102 on both sides, so both sides of the middle buffer plate have the buffer function.
[0052] During use, the buffer component 10 can be square or round. The buffer component 10 with a metal-rubber bonding structure has a buffering and shock-absorbing effect and can withstand greater traction and impact force. It is particularly suitable for buffering and shock absorption between large-volume mining cars; the buffer component 10 is installed in the chamber 141 on both sides of the rear plate 14, which is convenient for replacing the middle buffer plate; the buffer component 10 is pre-pressed by about 10 mm during installation to give it an appropriate pre-pressure.
[0053] Furthermore, in actual application, the smaller the pre-pressure, the greater the buffering effect. However, if the pre-pressure is too low, the pre-pressure may completely disappear after running for a period of time, resulting in the inability of the buffer device to fully recover, thereby failing to achieve the buffering and vibration reduction effect. Therefore, in order to ensure that the buffer device has a relatively long-term performance stability, there should be an appropriate pre-pressure. The pre-pressure of the buffer component 10 will gradually decay as the running time of the mine car increases. The pre-pressure of the buffer device can be ensured to remain unchanged by replacing the intermediate buffer plate.
[0054] Among them, combined Figure 1G long holes 131 are opened on both sides of the impact seat 13, and the connecting pin 11 passes through the G long hole 131 to be connected to the coupler frame, and a bottom panel 132 is opened on the outer side of the impact seat 13 close to the rear plate 14, and the top end of the buffer component 10 abuts against the bottom panel 132.
[0055] During use, the G long hole 131 of the impact seat 13 is connected to the mine car hook frame through two connecting pins 11 and locked with two large cotter pins 12 to prevent the connecting pins 11 from falling off; the bottom panel 132 presses the buffer component 10 installed on both sides of the rear follower plate 14, and the buffer component 10 has a certain pre-pressure.
[0056] Among them, Fig.11 As shown, the rear follower plate 14 is a semi-open structure, with two groups of chambers 141 opened on both sides thereof, and the buffer component 10 is installed in the chamber 141, a bottom plate 142 is provided on the bottom surface of the rear follower plate 14, an H hole 143 is opened in the vertical direction on the rear follower plate 14, and the tail pin 9 is inserted in the H hole 143, as well as two groups of protrusions 144 symmetrically arranged at the center position of the rear follower plate 14, and the protrusions 144 abut against the arc surface 73 at the end of the tail push block 7.
[0057] During use, two buffer components 10 are installed in the two chambers 141 respectively. In the initial installation state, the bottom plate 142 contacts the inner plate of the coupler frame; the tail pin 9 passes through the H hole 143 of the rear follower plate 14, the F long hole 193 of the hook body 1 and the opening hole 72 of the tail push block 7, and the rear follower plate 14 is rotatably connected with the hook body 1, and the impact seat 13 is also connected in series between the rear follower plate 14 and the hook body 1. The bottom panel 132 of the impact seat 13 presses the two buffer components 10, so that the buffer components 10 have a certain pre-pressure; the two protrusions 144 are in tangential contact with the two arc surfaces 73 of the tail push block 7, and have a fixed length function (to ensure the distance between the mine cars).
[0058] The tail spring 8 is made of silicon-manganese spring steel. The tail spring 8 is located in the lower cavity 151 of the hook body 1 , and its two ends are respectively abutted against the boss 15 and the cylindrical hole 71 .
[0059] During use, silicon-manganese spring steel is suitable for spiral springs that bear larger loads, and thus better utilizes buffering work. When the mine car docks and collides, the tail spring 8 can be compressed to bear part of the impact force; the tail spring 8 is also a recovery device for the coupler. When the mine car runs on a curve, an angle will be generated between the center line of the coupler and the longitudinal center line of the car body. Since the mine car body is long and the coupler offset is large, if it cannot quickly and automatically return to normal after the offset, the swing of the mine car will increase, and sometimes it will cause difficulty in unhooking the mine car.
[0060] Assembly and working principle of this device:
[0061] Coupler part: It is used for coupling, uncoupling and spacing between mine cars;
[0062] Coupler installation (see Figures 4 to 7 ): The unhooking spring 6 is inserted into the long rod 22 at the lower end of the hook lock 2, and the two parts are inserted along the long opening 16 at the front end of the hook body 1. The other end of the unhooking spring 6 is against the upper surface of the internal boss 15 of the hook body 1, and is installed in the upper cavity 161 of the hook body 1 with a certain pre-pressure; the lock lift 5 is inserted into the A hole 191 of the hook body 1, and the lifting hook 51 of the lock lift 5 is inserted into the E hole 23 of the hook lock 2, and the shaft pin 3 passes through the C hole 52 of the lock lift 5 and the B hole 192 of the hook body 1, and is locked with a small cotter pin 4 to prevent the shaft pin 3 from falling off; the D hole 53 of the lock lift 5 is connected to the hook lifting device of the coupler, and the hook lifting device is pulled, and the lifting hook 51 compresses the unhooking spring 6 and pulls back the hook lock 2 to complete the unhooking action;
[0063] When connected (see Figure 2 ), the hook head 18 pushes against the auxiliary inclined surface 19' of the opposite auxiliary hook body 1' to automatically correct, and the lock head 21 pushes the auxiliary lock head 21' of the opposite hook along the running direction. When the lock head 21 extends into the auxiliary hook groove 17' of the opposite hook, the lock head 21 with the reverse thrust of the spring rebounds and pushes the hook head 18 horizontally into the auxiliary hook groove 17' to complete the hooking action. When unhooking (see Figure 3 ), lift the lock handle 5 on any side and pull back the lock head 21 (or the auxiliary lock head 21'), the hook head 18 will then move horizontally out of the auxiliary hook groove 17' and release along the auxiliary inclined surface 19', and the coupler can be separated;
[0064] Buffer device part:
[0065] When installing the hook, the G long hole 131 of the impact seat 13 is connected to the mine car hook frame through two connecting pins 11, and the bottom plate 142 of the rear follower plate 14 contacts the inner plate of the hook frame; the bottom plate 132 presses the buffer component 10 installed in the chambers 141 on both sides of the rear follower plate 14; the tail spring 8 is installed in the lower cavity 151 of the hook body 1, one end of which is against the bottom of the internal boss 15 of the hook body 1, and the other end is against the cylindrical hole 71 of the tail push block 7 which is also installed in the lower cavity 151 of the hook body 1, and the tail pin 9 passes through the H hole 143 of the rear follower plate 14, the F long hole 193 of the hook body 1 and the opening hole 72 of the tail push block 7, so that the tail spring 8 is installed in the lower cavity 151 of the hook body 1 with a certain pre-pressure;
[0066] The hook body 1 can rotate around the tail pin 9 in the hollow cavity inside the impact seat 13, and the rotation angle can reach ±23°; Figure 2 ) The hook body 1 pulls the tail pin 9 and the rear follower plate 14, and the rear follower plate 14 compresses the buffer component 10, and the buffer component 10 transmits the traction force to the impact seat 13. Since the connecting pin 11 is already at the leftmost side of the G long hole 131 of the impact seat 13, the impact seat 13 does not move, but transmits the traction force to the mine car coupler frame through the connecting pin 11; when impacting (see Figure 3), since the bottom plate 142 of the rear follower plate 14 has been in contact with the inner plate of the coupler frame, the rear follower plate 14 does not move, and the hook body 1 transmits the impact force to the impact seat 13, the impact seat 13 moves to the right side of the two G long holes 131 and compresses the buffer component 10, the buffer component 10 transmits the impact force to the rear follower plate 14, and the rear follower plate 14 transmits the impact force to the mine car coupler frame; when the impact seat 13 compresses the buffer component 10, the tail spring 8 is also compressed to bear part of the impact force; at the same time, the tail spring 8 is also a recovery device of the coupler. After the coupler is offset during operation, it can quickly and automatically return to normal, thereby reducing the swing of the mine car operation.
