Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of skid steer loaders, and more specifically, to a skid steer loader and an intelligent monitoring system. Background Art
[0002] A skid steer loader, also known as a multi-functional engineering vehicle or multi-functional engineering machine, is a small construction machinery with a compact structure and flexible movement. The skid steer loader realizes vehicle steering by using the linear speed difference between the two side wheels, and is mainly used in occasions with narrow working sites, uneven ground, and frequent changes in working content. Currently, it is widely used in urban infrastructure, roads, construction sites, factory workshops, warehouse docks, ship decks, garden farms, etc. The skid steer loader can perform different operations such as shoveling, stacking, lifting, excavating, drilling, crushing, grasping, soil loosening and trenching, road sweeping, and road surface compaction by replacing various attachments.
[0003] However, for the existing skid steer loaders, their compact structures limit the working range, resulting in insufficient fork loading distance, discharge height, and discharge distance, and a small working range. Moreover, for most of the existing skid steer loaders, the hydraulic cylinders are directly hinged to the front end of the boom and the attachment frame, resulting in limited degrees of freedom of the attachments, and only one basic degree of freedom of movement can be achieved, making it difficult to meet the requirements of connecting different types of attachments to adapt to various working conditions. In addition, for the existing skid steer loaders, their attachment quick-change frames generally use a crank-slider mechanism to realize the up-and-down movement of the locking pin. This structure has a large manufacturing difficulty, a large number of parts, and is relatively troublesome for assembly and disassembly. Moreover, in order to achieve the designed movement effect, the part of the quick-change frame for auxiliary installation of the crank-slider mechanism also requires complex design, and its reliability is not easy to guarantee. In addition, the existing skid steer loaders have a low level of intelligence and low working safety, and need to be improved and perfected. Summary of the Invention

In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0075] Embodiment 1
[0076] As Figures 1 to 12 shown, this Embodiment 1 describes a skid - steer loader, which includes a loader body 1, a boom support frame 2, a boom 3, an attachment adjustment mechanism 4, an attachment quick - change frame 5, and an attachment 6.
[0077] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the loader body 1 includes a chassis, a cab, etc. The boom support frames 2 are arranged on both sides of the loader body 1. In this embodiment, the boom support frames 2 are respectively arranged on the sides of the rear window of the cab.
[0078] As Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown in the figure, the present invention improves the effective working range of the skid steer loader through the telescopic boom 3, and the boom 3 includes a main boom 31 and a telescopic boom 32. The rear end of the main boom 31 is hinged to the boom support frame 2, and the first hydraulic cylinder 331 is respectively connected to the boom support frame 2 and the main boom 31. The first hydraulic cylinder 331 drives the main boom 31 to swing up and down relative to the boom support frame 2 through its own contraction and elongation. The front end of the main boom 31 is slidably connected to the rear end of the telescopic boom 32, and the second hydraulic cylinder 332 is respectively connected to the main boom 31 and the telescopic boom 32. The second hydraulic cylinder 332 drives the telescopic boom 32 to extend relative to the main boom 31 through its own elongation, and the second hydraulic cylinder 332 drives the telescopic boom 32 to retract relative to the main boom 31 through its own contraction.
[0079] As Figure 5 shown, in this embodiment, a guide rail 311 is further provided on the inner side surface of the main boom 31, and a slider 321 is provided on the telescopic boom 32. The slider 321 is slidably matched with the guide rail 311, so that the telescopic boom 32 has good controllability in extending and retracting relative to the main boom 31, a high extendable length, and compared with the traditional method of telescoping through a threaded rod, the telescopic boom 32 of the present invention has higher mechanical efficiency and faster telescoping speed.
[0080] As Figure 6 shown, a dust cover 312 is further provided between the end of the guide rail 311 and the inner side surface of the main boom 31.
[0081] In this embodiment, the maximum extension distance of the telescopic boom 32 is determined by the length of the guide rail 311 and the maximum force arm length, and the maximum lifting angle of the boom 3 is determined by the weight of the boom 3 and the diameter of the first hydraulic cylinder 331. According to different rated loads, the materials of the main boom 31 and the telescopic boom 32 can be various materials such as carbon steel and alloy steel by comprehensively considering factors such as price and performance. For example, if carbon structural steel Q235 is used, it can not only meet the performance requirements but also has reasonable manufacturing costs. Considering the bearing capacity and manufacturing cost comprehensively, the main boom 31 and the telescopic boom 32 can adopt different cross-sectional shapes, such as an equal-wall-thickness box-shaped cross-section.
[0082] When the main boom 31 needs to be lifted, the control lever controls the hydraulic pump in the loader body 1 to extract hydraulic oil from the hydraulic oil tank and supply it to the first hydraulic cylinder 331. The first hydraulic cylinder 331 extends forward, so as to achieve the purpose of lifting the main boom 31; when the main boom 31 needs to be lowered, the hydraulic oil in the first hydraulic cylinder 331 flows back to the hydraulic oil tank along the pipeline, causing the first hydraulic cylinder 331 to retract backward, so as to lower the main boom 31.
[0083] When the telescopic arm 32 needs to extend, the joystick controls the hydraulic oil in the rod end of the second hydraulic cylinder 332 to flow back to the hydraulic oil tank, and the hydraulic pump in the loader body 1 pumps the hydraulic oil in the hydraulic oil tank into the rodless end of the second hydraulic cylinder 332, pushing the second hydraulic cylinder 332 to move forward, thereby driving the telescopic arm 32 to extend forward along the guide rail 311; when the telescopic arm 32 needs to retract, the hydraulic oil in the rodless end of the second hydraulic cylinder 332 flows back to the hydraulic oil tank, and the hydraulic pump in the loader body 1 pumps the hydraulic oil in the hydraulic oil tank into the rod end of the second hydraulic cylinder 332, and the second hydraulic cylinder 332 pulls the telescopic arm 32 back along the guide rail 311.
[0084] In the skid steer loader of this embodiment, the front end of the telescopic arm 32 is hinged to the attachment adjustment mechanism 4, and the third hydraulic cylinder 333 is respectively connected to the telescopic arm 32 and the attachment adjustment mechanism 4. The third hydraulic cylinder 333 is used to change the inclination angle of the attachment adjustment mechanism 4 relative to the telescopic arm 32. The attachment adjustment mechanism 4 is connected to the attachment 6 through the attachment quick-change bracket 5. The attachment adjustment mechanism 4 is used to change the position of the attachment 6 relative to the telescopic arm 32, so as to realize the multi-directional movement of the attachment 6. In this embodiment, the front end of the telescopic arm 32 and the third hydraulic cylinder 333 are preferably hinged to the attachment adjustment mechanism 4 through ear seats respectively. The attachment 6 and the attachment quick-change bracket 5 are preferably connected in a detachable manner, which is convenient for connecting different types of attachments 6, so as to meet the requirements of various working conditions.
[0085] As Figure 7 and Figure 9 shown, in this embodiment, the attachment adjustment mechanism 4 includes a housing 411, a power output mechanism and a slewing bearing 414. The front end of the telescopic arm 32 and the third hydraulic cylinder 333 are respectively hinged to the housing 411. The power output mechanism is arranged in the housing 411. The power output mechanism is connected to the inner ring of the slewing bearing. The inner ring of the slewing bearing is connected to the attachment quick-change bracket 5, and the outer ring of the slewing bearing is connected to the housing 411. The power output mechanism drives the inner ring of the slewing bearing to rotate relative to the outer ring of the slewing bearing, and further drives the attachment 6 to rotate relative to the telescopic arm 32.
[0086] As Figure 10 shown, in this embodiment, the slewing bearing 414 includes an inner ring of the slewing bearing, rollers and an outer ring of the slewing bearing. The outer ring of the slewing bearing is sleeved on the inner ring of the slewing bearing and uses rollers to reduce friction. The power output mechanism includes a servo motor 412 and a planetary reducer 413. The planetary reducer 413 includes a sun gear, planetary gears, a planetary carrier and a ring gear. The planetary carrier is arranged in the housing 411. The sun gear and the planetary gears mesh with each other and are arranged on the planetary carrier. The servo motor 412 is arranged in the housing 411. The servo motor 412 is power-connected to the sun gear of the planetary reducer 413. The sun gear and the servo motor 412 are connected by a flat key. The inner ring of the slewing bearing is connected to the ring gear of the planetary reducer 413. The inner ring of the slewing bearing is also connected to the attachment quick-change bracket 5 through a hollow shaft.
[0087] For the material of the hollow shaft, considering various factors such as price and performance comprehensively according to different rated loads, medium carbon steel, alloy steel and other materials can be used. For example, if 45 steel is used, it can not only meet the performance requirements, but also the manufacturing cost is economical and reasonable.
[0088] When the attachment 6 needs to rotate, for example, when it needs to rotate clockwise, the servo motor 412 in the attachment adjustment mechanism 4 is controlled by the control lever to rotate counterclockwise, driving the sun gear to rotate counterclockwise at the same speed. Since the planetary carrier is fixed, the ring gear that has been decelerated rotates clockwise, driving the inner ring of the slewing bearing to rotate clockwise, thereby driving the attachment quick-change frame 5 connected to the inner ring of the slewing bearing to drive the attachment 6 to rotate.
[0089] In addition, the attachment adjustment mechanism 4 provided in this embodiment that can rotate the attachment 6 can also be applicable to a variety of working conditions, such as Figure 12 as shown, the attachment 6 can be replaced with a fixture.
[0090] Embodiment 2
[0091] As Figures 13 to 19 shown, this Embodiment 2 also describes a skid steer loader. Except for the following technical features that are different from those of the above Embodiment 1, the rest of the technical features can refer to the above Embodiment 1.
[0092] As Figures 14 to 17 shown, the attachment adjustment mechanism 4 includes a guide seat 421, a sliding seat 422 and a double-acting hydraulic cylinder 423.
[0093] The front end of the telescopic arm 32 and the third hydraulic cylinder 333 are respectively hinged to the guide seat 421.
[0094] The sliding seat 422 is slidably connected to the guide seat 421, and the attachment quick-change frame 5 is connected to the sliding seat 422.
[0095] The cylinder block of the double-acting hydraulic cylinder 423 is connected to the guide seat 421, the piston rod of the double-acting hydraulic cylinder 423 is connected to the sliding seat 422, and the piston rods of the double-acting hydraulic cylinder 423 move in the same direction, thereby driving the attachment 6 to move horizontally relative to the telescopic arm 32. In the direction as Figure 18 shown, the piston rods at the left and right ends of the double-acting hydraulic cylinder 423 are respectively connected to the sliding seat 422. When the piston rod at the left end of the double-acting hydraulic cylinder 423 extends and the piston rod at the right end of the double-acting hydraulic cylinder 423 shortens, the attachment 6 is driven to move to the left; similarly, when the piston rod at the left end of the double-acting hydraulic cylinder 423 shortens and the piston rod at the right end of the double-acting hydraulic cylinder 423 extends at the same speed as the piston rod at the left end of the double-acting hydraulic cylinder 423 shortens, the attachment 6 is driven to move to the right.
[0096] In this embodiment, a roller frame 424 is provided on the sliding seat 422, and a plurality of rollers 425 are installed on the roller frame 424. The rim of the roller 425 contacts the guide seat 421.
[0097] An electromagnet 426 is provided on the attachment quick-change frame 5, and a positioning groove cooperating with the electromagnet 426 is formed on the sliding seat 422. When the electromagnet 426 is energized, it generates a magnetic force and adsorbs to the positioning groove.
[0098] As Figure 19 shown, the attachment adjustment mechanism 4 that can laterally move the attachment 6 provided in this embodiment can be applied to various working conditions. For example, the attachment 6 can be replaced with a road flattening device.
[0099] Embodiment 3
[0100] As Figures 20 to 21 shown, Embodiment 3 of this also describes a skid steer loader. Except for the following technical features being different from those of Embodiment 1 above, the rest of the technical features can refer to Embodiment 1 above.
[0101] The attachment quick-change frame 5 includes a frame plate 501, a locking motor 502, a transmission shaft 511, a telescopic assembly 503, a locking pin 504, and a guide cylinder 505. In this embodiment, the telescopic assembly 503 uses a telescopic cylinder provided with a spring.
[0102] The frame plate 501 is connected to the attachment adjustment mechanism 4. The locking motor 502 is provided on the frame plate 501, and the locking motor 502 is power-connected to a first helical gear 512. A second helical gear 513 meshing with the first helical gear 512 is provided in the middle of the transmission shaft 511, a third helical gear 514 is provided at the end of the transmission shaft 511, and a fourth helical gear 515 meshing with the third helical gear 514 is provided on the frame plate 501. One end of the locking pin 504 is connected to the fourth helical gear 515 through the telescopic assembly 503, and the other end of the locking pin 504 is slidably connected to the guide cylinder 505. The guide cylinder 505 is communicated with a locking hole 506.
[0103] The locking motor 502 drives the first helical gear 512 to rotate forward, so that the telescopic assembly 503 drives the locking pin 504 to extend out of the locking hole 506, and the locking pin 504 abuts against the attachment 6. The locking motor 502 drives the first helical gear 512 to rotate reversely, so that the telescopic assembly 503 drives the locking pin 504 to retract into the locking hole 506, and the locking pin 504 is separated from the attachment 6.
[0104] When the attachment 6 needs to be replaced, first, the control lever controls the locking motor 502 to rotate counterclockwise in the upward view direction, driving the rotation of the first bevel gear 512. The motion is transmitted to the fourth bevel gear 515 through the second bevel gear 513 and the third bevel gear 514 in sequence. The fourth bevel gear 515 drives the telescopic cylinder to rotate, causing the locking pin 504 rotatably connected to the telescopic cylinder to lift upward, and the attachment 6 is removed.
