Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of loaders, and in particular relates to a swing type central rotary hinge structure and a loader. Background Art

[0002] The statements in this section merely provide background information related to the present invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0003] In the field of engineering machinery and equipment, loaders are an important equipment widely used in various engineering construction scenarios. The articulated structure is a key component for the loader to achieve flexible steering and operation. The front and rear frames of the traditional loader articulated structure can only achieve left and right steering during operation. When the front wheel of the vehicle bounces or passes over an uneven road surface, the front wheel bounce will transmit the vibration to the rear frame. Since the loader, a special engineering vehicle, has no shock-absorbing damping structure, it is easy to cause vibration of the rear frame. On the one hand, it reduces the comfort of the cab and makes it difficult to ensure the stability of the vehicle. It is easy to become unstable under complex working conditions, which seriously threatens the safety of the operation. On the other hand, during shoveling operations, long-term and frequent severe vibrations will accelerate the fatigue damage of structural parts and shorten the overall service life of the loader.

[0004] The upper and lower hinge pins in the traditional structure have the same structure and the same size. Since the lower hinge structure is the main stress point, it is severely worn.

Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in the present invention have the same meanings as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present invention belongs.

[0026] It should be noted that the terms used herein are only for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to the present invention. As used herein, unless otherwise explicitly stated in the present invention, the singular form is also intended to include the plural form. In addition, it should be understood that when the terms "include" and / or "include" are used in this specification, it indicates the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components and / or combinations thereof;

[0027] This embodiment provides a swing-type central rotating hinge structure, such as Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, it comprises: a slewing support 1, a main articulated frame 2 and a secondary articulated frame 3; the slewing support 1 comprises an outer roller ring 14, an inner roller ring 13 and a ball; a first U-shaped groove is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the inner roller ring 13, a second U-shaped groove is provided on the inner circumferential surface of the outer roller ring 14, the first U-shaped groove and the second U-shaped groove form a circular annular groove, an implantation hole is provided on the outer surface of the outer roller ring 14, and the implantation hole is used to implant the ball into the circular annular groove; a lubricating oil injection hole is provided on the outer surface of the outer roller ring 14 The filling hole is connected with the circular ring groove, and a refueling nozzle 15 is arranged at the filling hole; a mounting plate 4 is arranged on the plane at one end of the outer roller ring 14, and a main articulated frame 2 and a secondary articulated frame 3 are arranged on the mounting plate 4; an inner ring flange hole is arranged on the plane at one end of the inner roller ring 13, and the mounting plate 4 and the inner ring flange hole are respectively arranged at two ends of the slewing bearing; the mounting plate 4 is connected to the outer roller ring 14 through a plurality of fasteners, and the inner ring flange hole is connected to the rear frame 11 through a plurality of fasteners.

[0028] The mounting plate 4 is in a convex shape, the main articulated frame 2 is arranged at the lower part of the mounting plate 4, the auxiliary articulated frame 3 is arranged at the upper part of the mounting plate 4, and the main articulated frame 2 and the auxiliary articulated frame 3 are used to connect the upper articulated seat and the lower articulated seat of the front frame 12 of the loader.

[0029] Two limiting devices are symmetrically arranged on the outer circumferential surface of the outer roller ring 14 and are fixedly disposed between the mounting plate 4 and the rear frame 11 to limit the rotation angle between the slewing support 1 and the rear frame 11 .

[0030] The limiting device includes a limiting groove 7 and a limiting block 8, wherein the limiting groove 7 is a U-shaped channel steel or a bent steel plate, and the limiting block 8 is a wedge-shaped steel plate. The limiting groove 7 is fixedly arranged on the mounting plate 4 and connected by welding, and the limiting block 8 is fixedly arranged on the rear frame 11 and connected by welding. The limiting groove 7 and the limiting block 8 are both on the same circular rotation trajectory. When the slewing bearing rotates, relative rotation will occur between the limiting groove 7 and the limiting block 8. When the relative rotation reaches the set limit angle, the limiting block 8 contacts the limiting groove 7, which effectively prevents the front frame 12 and the rear frame 11 of the loader from rotating too much, causing the vehicle to become unstable; at the same time, it can also be achieved that the bouncing of the front wheels during shoveling of the loader will not be transmitted to the rear frame 11, thereby improving the comfort of the cab and the life of the structural parts.

[0031] The auxiliary articulated frame 3 is fixedly arranged on the upper part of the mounting plate 4 away from the slewing bearing. A shaft sleeve is arranged on the auxiliary articulated frame 3. The shaft sleeve is connected to the upper articulated seat of the front frame 12 through the auxiliary articulated pin 5. A lubricating oil filling port is arranged at the end of the auxiliary articulated pin 5, and a lubricating oil channel is arranged at the core for conveying the lubricating oil to the gap between the auxiliary articulated pin 5 and the shaft sleeve.

[0032] One end of the secondary hinge pin 5 is fixedly connected to the upper hinge seat through a fastener

[0035] Flange sleeves are arranged at both ends of the main hinge pin 6 respectively. The flange sleeves are interference fit with the main hinge pin 6 and are fixedly connected to the upper hinge frame through fasteners.

[0036] The main hinge pin 6 is coaxially arranged with the secondary hinge pin 5, and the diameter of the main hinge pin 6 is larger than that of the secondary hinge pin 5. Since the position of the lower hinge frame is the main stress point, this part and the main hinge pin 6 wear too fast in the traditional structure. The present invention adopts a tight fit to effectively solve the problem of the lower hinge frame and the main hinge pin 6 wearing too fast.

[0037] The present invention also provides a loader, comprising a swing-type central rotary articulated structure as described above.

[0038] Although the above describes the specific implementation mode of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, it is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications or variations that can be made by those skilled in the art on the basis of the technical solution of the present invention without creative work are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
