Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of engineering transportation equipment technology, specifically to a steering mechanism with independent control of the front and rear four tracks. Background Technology
[0002] The tracked steering mechanism is a type of tracked travel mechanism for tracked unit support transport vehicles. This mechanism can withstand heavy machine weight, has strong climbing ability, low ground pressure, and stable movement. It can adapt to steep slopes and turns, allowing the vehicle to operate more freely in confined spaces, and has been widely used in the construction machinery field. Common tracked travel mechanisms include dual-track and quad-track mechanisms. Dual-track mechanisms are mainly used in excavators, bulldozers, pavers, and rotary drilling rigs, while quad-track mechanisms are mainly used in road milling machines and slipform pavers, and are also used in some agricultural machinery.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0021] (1) A front and rear four-track independent control steering mechanism, which controls the rotation amplitude of the rotary motor through a hydraulic system, so that the front and rear track walking parts of the chassis frame assembly can rotate independently at a certain angle. This allows the vehicle to achieve a smaller radius turn in a very small space, reducing the need for surrounding space, making it suitable for operation in narrow areas and increasing the scope of use.
[0022] (2) A front and rear four-track independent control steering mechanism with multiple steering modes, which improves the vehicle's operational flexibility in complex environments and enhances the vehicle's stability and handling.
[0023] (3) A four-track independent control steering mechanism, wherein when the left and right tracks on the same track travel component rotate in opposite directions under the drive of a hydraulic motor, the track can assist in the rotation drive deflection, thereby increasing the steering speed of the track travel component and improving the steering efficiency.
[0024] (4) A front and rear four-track independent control steering mechanism, which moves the track walking component toward the tangential direction of the cargo plate component by deflecting the track walking component, can rotate the connecting components and side frame components on both sides of the cargo plate component by 90 degrees, so that the upright plate and guard plate of the connecting component form a barrier for the cargo on the bearing plate, thereby improving the protection capability of the cargo during the transport of the cargo.
[0025] (5) A steering mechanism with independent control of front and rear four tracks, the foot pads are in contact with the ground to increase the stability of the cargo plate component, making the orientation conversion of the connecting component and the side frame component more flexible. When the spring rod assembly returns to its original position, the cylinder also draws air synchronously, so that the foot pads retract into the second air chamber, improving the automation performance of use.
[0026] (6) A front and rear four-track independent control steering mechanism, by setting the positioning block of the slider assembly, after the connecting part and the side frame part rotate 90 degrees, the positioning block is aligned with the positioning groove again, thereby making the rotation of the connecting part and the side frame part stop, so as to better identify the rotation direction and improve the steering accuracy.
[0027] (7) A front and rear four-track independent control steering mechanism, in the state of adjusting the angle of the connecting component and the side frame component, the cylinder extends so that the foot pad is supported on the ground. At this time, the retraction of the connecting shaft can release the track walking component from the support state, so that the connecting shaft component is hooked on the side frame component. At this time, the second corrugated plate and the first corrugated plate are separated. At this time, the track walking component is started to move, so that the track walking component and the connecting shaft component can slide independently along the hook plate, thereby adjusting the distance between the two track walking components and improving the adjustability.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

It can adapt to steep slope driving and turning. The tracked walking components 1 include a track mounting platform 101, and track structural components 1 are fixedly connected to both sides of the track mounting platform 101. 02, a straight left track 103 is sleeved on the outside of the left track structure 102, and a straight right track 104 is sleeved on the outside of the right track structure 102.

The rotation amplitude of the slewing motor is controlled by a hydraulic system, so that the tracked walking component 1 rotates around a certain angle, thereby adjusting the direction of the left track 103 and the right track 104.

[0068] The connecting shaft component 8 includes a second corrugated plate 801 adapted to the first corrugated plate 702. The upper surface of the second corrugated plate 801 is corrugated. A pad 802 located between two hook plates 703 is fixedly connected to the middle of the lower surface of the second corrugated plate 801. A connecting shaft 803 is fixedly connected to the middle of the lower surface of the pad 802.

[0069] The lower surface of the second corrugated plate 801 is fixedly connected to the two sides of the adapter plug hook plate 703.
[0070] Initially, the connecting shaft 803 extends, and the first corrugated plate 702 and the second corrugated plate 801 are fitted together.
[0071] The working principle of this invention is as follows:
[0072] The rotary drive 107 of the track travel component 1 of the independent control steering mechanism for the front and rear four tracks is driven by a rotary motor and gear transmission. The rotation amplitude of the rotary motor is controlled by a hydraulic system, so that the front and rear track travel components 1 of the chassis frame assembly can rotate independently at a certain angle. This allows the vehicle to achieve a smaller radius of turn in a very small space, reducing the need for surrounding space, making it suitable for operation in narrow areas and increasing the range of use.
[0073] This four-track independent steering mechanism has multiple steering modes. In normal steering, the rotary drive 107 drives the front track travel component 1 to deflect, similar to the steering method of a traditional car, for normal vehicle operation. In crab-like steering, the rotary drive 107 drives the track travel component 1 to deflect, causing the front and rear track travel components 1 of the chassis frame assembly to deflect in parallel in the same direction, allowing the vehicle to move laterally like a crab. In reverse steering, the rotary drive 107 drives the track travel component 1 to deflect, causing the front and rear track travel components 1 of the chassis frame assembly to deflect in opposite directions, thereby reducing the turning radius and allowing the vehicle to rotate almost in place. This improves the vehicle's operational flexibility in complex environments and enhances its stability and handling.
[0074] Each tracked traveling component 1 is designed with a parallel left track 103 and a right track 104. The tracked traveling component 1 is deflected by a rotary drive 107. The left track 103 and the right track 104 are powered by hydraulic motors. When the left track 103 and the right track 104 on the same tracked traveling component 1 rotate in opposite directions under the drive of the hydraulic motor, they can assist the rotary drive 107 in deflection, thereby increasing the turning speed of the tracked traveling component 1 and improving the turning efficiency.
[0075] The bearing plate 401 carries goods. When the transportation road conditions are bumpy, the air pump 502 is started to inject air into the first air chamber 501. The air is then introduced into the sleeve 507 through the second air chamber 505 and the air pipe 506, which pushes the connecting parts 6 on both sides outward. The slider assembly of the connecting part 6 moves out of the first slot 303 and into the first slide groove 302, thereby releasing the locking state of the slider assembly. By deflecting the track walking part 1, it moves towards the tangential direction of the cargo plate part 3, which can rotate the connecting parts 6 and the side frame parts 7 on both sides of the cargo plate part 3 by ninety degrees. This allows the upright plate 609 and the guard plate 403 of the connecting part 6 to form a barrier for the goods on the bearing plate 401, improving the protection of the goods during transportation.
[0076] When the air pump 502 inflates the spring rod assembly, part of the air injected into the first air chamber 501 is introduced into the cylinder 503, causing the cylinder 503 to extend. The foot pad 504 is placed on the ground to increase the stability of the cargo plate component 3, making the orientation of the connecting component 6 and the side frame component 7 more flexible. When the spring rod assembly returns to its original position, the cylinder 503 also simultaneously de-inflates, causing the foot pad 504 to retract into the second air chamber 505, improving the automation performance.
[0077] By setting the positioning block 606 of the slider assembly, after the connecting part 6 and the side frame part 7 rotate 90 degrees, the positioning block 606 is aligned with the positioning groove 304 again, thereby causing the rotation of the connecting part 6 and the side frame part 7 to stop, thus enabling better identification of the rotation direction and improving steering accuracy.
[0078] Under normal conditions, the tracked walking component 1 supports the ground, the side frame component 7 is pressed against the connecting shaft component 8, and the second corrugated plate 801 and the first corrugated plate 702 are tightly engaged, thus securing the tracked walking component 1. When adjusting the angle of the connecting component 6 and the side frame component 7, the cylinder 503 extends, causing the foot pad 504 to contact the ground for support. Retracting the connecting shaft 803 releases the tracked walking component 1 from its supported state, allowing the connecting shaft component 8 to engage with the side frame component 7. At this point, the second corrugated plate 801 and the first corrugated plate 702 separate. Initiating movement of the tracked walking component 1 allows it to slide independently along the hook plate 703, thereby adjusting the distance between the two tracked walking components 1 and improving adjustability. Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
