Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of engineering vehicle technology, and more particularly to off-road aerial work vehicles. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of modern aerial work, aerial work platforms with off-road capabilities are the core tools for accomplishing aerial work tasks in harsh environments, and have been widely used in many scenarios such as municipal maintenance, power line repair, building installation, and garden pruning.
[0003] Currently, off-road aerial work platforms on the market are mainly based on pure fuel-powered vehicles. Pure fuel-powered models have significant drawbacks: their response speed is slow, and they cannot react in time to emergency work needs or when a quick adjustment of the work position is required, which greatly affects work efficiency; during operation, the engine needs to work continuously to ensure that the hydraulic system where the actuator is located can obtain sufficient hydraulic power in a timely manner, resulting in low energy utilization and high economic costs.
[0004] To address these issues with pure gasoline-powered vehicles, pure electric off-road aerial work platforms have emerged. However, due to the relatively harsh working environment, pure electric vehicles consume a lot of electricity and have poor range, requiring frequent charging during continuous operation. This not only interrupts the work process and reduces work efficiency, but also severely limits the use of pure electric vehicles in some outdoor work scenarios without convenient charging facilities.
[0005] In conclusion, there is an urgent need for off-road aerial work platforms to effectively solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

This power then drives the front and rear drive axles via the first and second drive shafts, respectively, enabling the vehicle to achieve four-wheel drive and off-road capability. Simultaneously, the second motor drives the hydraulic pump, which supplies high-pressure oil to the actuators to ensure their proper functioning. When the stored energy falls below a preset minimum threshold, the range extender activates, supplying the stored energy to the energy storage mechanism.

This achieves advantages such as fast response speed, high energy utilization rate, and low economic cost. At the same time, the range extender mechanism of this vehicle only starts working when the electrical energy stored in the energy storage device is below a preset minimum threshold, and stops working when the electrical energy stored in the energy storage device is above a preset maximum threshold. Similarly, there is no issue of continuous operation of the energy storage device. This solves the range problem of pure electric off-road aerial work platforms, thereby achieving rational energy utilization and reasonable control of economic costs. Attached Figure Description

[0024] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0025] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, this embodiment provides an off-road aerial work platform vehicle. The off-road aerial work platform vehicle includes a chassis 1, a drive assembly 2, a work execution assembly, and a power assembly. The drive assembly 2 includes a front drive axle 21, a rear drive axle 22, a transfer case 23, a first drive shaft 24, and a second drive shaft 25. The front drive axle 21 and the rear drive axle 22 are respectively located at both ends of the chassis 1 along the vehicle length direction X. The transfer case 23 is located between the front drive axle 21 and the rear drive axle 22 along the vehicle length direction X. The first drive shaft 24 connects the first output shaft of the transfer case 23 to the front drive axle 21. The transmission connection includes a second driveshaft 25 that connects the second output shaft of the transfer case 23 and the rear drive axle 22. The working assembly includes an actuator 31 and a hydraulic pump, which supplies hydraulic oil to the actuator 31. The powertrain includes an energy storage mechanism 41, a range extender 42, a first motor, and a second motor. The energy storage mechanism 41 supplies power to both the first and second motors. The output shaft of the first motor is connected to the input shaft of the transfer case 23, and the output shaft of the second motor is connected to the input shaft of the hydraulic pump. The range extender 42 charges the energy storage mechanism 41. When this off-road aerial work platform vehicle is in operation, the energy storage mechanism 41 supplies power to the first motor, which then inputs power to the transfer case 23. The power is then transmitted through the first driveshaft 24 and the second driveshaft 25 to drive the front drive axle 21 and the rear drive axle 22 respectively, achieving four-wheel drive and enabling off-road capability. Simultaneously, the second motor drives the hydraulic pump, which supplies high-pressure oil to the actuator 31 to ensure its normal operation. When the electrical energy stored in the energy storage mechanism 41 falls below a preset minimum threshold, the range extender 42 activates, supplying the electrical energy generated by the range extender 42 to the energy storage mechanism 41. The off-road aerial work platform vehicle supplies power to the first and second motors via the energy storage device, enabling the drive assembly 2 and the work execution assembly to operate without the need for continuous engine operation. This achieves advantages such as fast response, high energy utilization, and low economic cost. Furthermore, the range extender 42 only activates when the electrical energy stored in the energy storage mechanism 41 falls below the preset minimum threshold; it stops operating when the electrical energy stored in the energy storage mechanism 41 exceeds the preset maximum threshold. This eliminates the issue of continuous operation of the energy storage mechanism 41, thus solving the range problem of pure electric off-road aerial work platforms and achieving rational energy utilization and cost control.
[0026] Optionally, the energy storage mechanism 41 includes a power battery and an electronic control module. The electronic control module manages the charging and discharging of the power battery, and further enables the discharging of the first motor, the second motor, and all vehicle electrical equipment, while controlling the range extender mechanism 42 and the external charging gun to charge the power battery.
[0027] Optionally, the range extender 42 includes an engine, a generator, a power electronic controller, and a cooling system. The engine burns fuel to generate mechanical energy, the generator converts the mechanical energy into electrical energy, the power electronic controller adjusts the voltage and current, and the cooling system ensures that the range extender operates at a suitable temperature.
[0028] Optionally, the energy storage mechanism 41 and the range extender 42 are located on opposite sides of the chassis 1 along the vehicle width direction Y, and both are located between the front drive axle 21 and the rear drive axle 22 along the vehicle length direction X. In this embodiment, compared to the energy storage mechanism 41 and the range extender 42 being located on one side of the chassis 1 along the vehicle width direction Y, this arrangement can optimize the overall center of gravity of the vehicle body and prevent the center of gravity of the vehicle body from shifting along the vehicle width direction Y. On the other hand, it can prevent the energy storage mechanism 41 and the range extender 42 from affecting each other, such as the heat generated by the range extender 42 during operation affecting the performance of the power battery.
[0029] Optionally, the chassis 1 includes two longitudinal beams 11, a first fixing member 13, and a second fixing member 14. The longitudinal beams 11 extend along the length direction X of the vehicle, and the two longitudinal beams 11 are spaced apart along the width direction Y. The first fixing member 13 includes two L-shaped brackets, which are fixed to one longitudinal beam 11. The two L-shaped brackets form an L-shaped groove, and the energy storage mechanism 41 is disposed in the L-shaped groove. The second fixing member 14 includes a housing 141 and a cover plate 142. The housing 141 is provided with an open receiving cavity, and the cover plate 142 closes the open cavity. The cover plate 142 is provided with a smoke exhaust channel 1421 that connects to the receiving cavity. The housing 141 is fixed to another longitudinal beam 11, and the range extender 42 is disposed in the receiving cavity. The smoke exhaust pipe of the range extender 42 extends out from the smoke exhaust channel 1421. In this embodiment, the chassis 1 also includes a plurality of crossbeams 12, which are arranged sequentially at intervals along the vehicle length direction X and located between two longitudinal beams 11. The two ends of the crossbeams 12 are respectively fixed to the two longitudinal beams 11. This arrangement can improve the overall strength of the chassis 1.
[0030] The L-shaped bracket includes a horizontal plate 131 and a vertical plate 132 connected at right angles. The vertical plate 132 is fixedly connected to the corresponding longitudinal beam 11 so that the horizontal plate 131 is located in the horizontal plane. The energy storage mechanism 41 is disposed in the L-shaped groove. The horizontal plate 131 supports the energy storage mechanism 41 along the vehicle height direction Z, thereby fixing the energy storage mechanism 41 to the L-shaped bracket. Two L-shaped brackets are spaced apart along the vehicle length direction X.
[0031] The second fixing component 14 includes a housing 141 and a cover plate 142, which prevent external objects from damaging the range extender mechanism 42. The cover plate 142 is provided with an exhaust passage 1421 communicating with the receiving cavity, through which the engine's exhaust pipe can extend. The surface of the housing 141 is provided with multiple sets of matrix-arranged vent holes, which can dissipate heat from the range extender mechanism 42.
[0032] Optionally, the first fixing member 13 further includes a shock-absorbing buffer structure 133, which is disposed between the L-shaped bracket and the energy storage mechanism 41. In this embodiment, both the horizontal plate 131 and the vertical plate 132 of the first fixing member 13 are provided with shock-absorbing buffer structures 133. When the energy storage mechanism 41 is disposed in the L-shaped groove, the energy storage mechanism 41 and the first fixing member 13 press against the shock-absorbing buffer structure 133. When the vehicle is traveling on a rough road, the shock-absorbing buffer structure 133 can buffer the energy storage mechanism 41.
[0033] Optionally, the shock-absorbing and buffering structure 133 can be an elastic rubber pad. In other embodiments, the shock-absorbing and buffering structure 133 can also be an elastic steel plate. The elastic steel plate is arc-shaped. Taking the shock-absorbing and buffering structure 133 located on the horizontal plate 131 as an example, one end of the elastic steel plate is fixed to the horizontal plate 131, and the other end of the elastic steel plate abuts against the horizontal plate 131. When the elastic steel plate is subjected to the compressive force of the energy storage mechanism 41, the elastic steel plate undergoes elastic deformation, and the other end of the elastic steel plate slides relative to the horizontal plate 131.
[0034] Optionally, the chassis 1 is provided with a slewing support 15; the actuator 31 includes a rotating arm 311, a telescopic arm 312, a slewing platform 313, and a working platform 314. One end of the rotating arm 311 is fixed to the slewing support 15, and the slewing support 15 can drive the rotating arm 311 to rotate around the axis of rotation in the vehicle height direction Z. The other end of the rotating arm 311 is fixed to one end of the telescopic arm 312, and the other end of the telescopic arm 312 is fixed to the slewing platform 313. The telescopic arm 312 can extend and retract. The working platform 314 is fixed to the slewing platform 313, and the slewing platform 313 can drive the working platform 314 to swing around the axis of rotation in the vehicle height direction Z. In this embodiment, the actuator 31 achieves the maximization of the working envelope space and the refinement of the end-effector positioning through the kinematic decoupling design of "chassis 1 full-range slewing + rotating arm 311 amplitude variation + telescopic arm 312 radial extension + working platform 314 independent swinging posture adjustment", completely eliminating the working blind spot of the traditional fixed boom. Among them, the slewing platform 313 can drive the working platform 314 to swing around the axis of rotation in the vehicle height direction Z by an angle of α, -90°≤α≤+90°.
[0035] Optionally, the chassis 1's full-range rotation, the rotating arm 311's luffing, the telescopic arm 312's radial extension, and the work platform 314's independent posture adjustment are all executed through the hydraulic drive component 524. The second motor drives the hydraulic pump to work, and the pressure oil generated by the hydraulic pump is supplied to the hydraulic drive component 524.
[0036] Optionally, the working platform 314 includes a platform frame 3141, a rotating partition 3142, and a self-unloading door 3143. The platform frame 3141 is disposed on the rotary platform 313 and surrounds a working chamber with an opening. The rotating partition 3142 can selectively divide the working chamber into an operating area and a material area. The self-unloading door 3143 can selectively close or open the opening. In this embodiment, the rotating partition 3142 is rotatably disposed within the working chamber, thereby allowing the working chamber to form a single space for workers to work inside, or to divide the working chamber into two spaces, with workers in the operating area and materials in the material area. The self-unloading door 3143 is disposed on the platform frame 3141 and can be either a push-pull type or a rotating type. When workers enter the working chamber, the self-unloading door 3143 closes the opening; when workers need to leave the working chamber, the self-unloading door 3143 opens the opening.
[0037] Optionally, the chassis 1 includes two spaced and parallel longitudinal beams 11, with the longitudinal beams 11 extending along the vehicle length direction (X) and the spacing between the two longitudinal beams 11 along the vehicle width direction (Y). The outrigger assembly includes two outrigger mechanisms 5, which are disposed on both sides of the chassis 1 along the vehicle length direction (X). Each outrigger mechanism 5 includes an outrigger box 51 fixed to the two longitudinal beams 11 and two outrigger assemblies 52 disposed on both sides of the outrigger box 51 along the vehicle width direction (Y). In this embodiment, the connection between the outrigger box 51 and the longitudinal beams 11 not only connects the chassis 1 to the outrigger assembly but also improves the overall strength of the chassis 1. The two outrigger mechanisms 5 can stably support the off-road aerial work vehicle.
[0038] Optionally, the outrigger assembly 52 includes an upper connecting rod 521, a lower connecting rod 522, an outrigger 523, and a drive member 524. One end of the upper connecting rod 521 is pivotally connected to the outrigger housing 51 via a first pivot shaft, and the other end of the upper connecting rod 521 is pivotally connected to the outrigger 523 via a second pivot shaft. One end of the lower connecting rod 522 is pivotally connected to the outrigger housing 51 via a third pivot shaft, and the other end of the lower connecting rod 522 is pivotally connected to the outrigger 523 via a fourth pivot shaft. One end of the drive member 524 is pivotally connected to the outrigger housing 51 via a fifth pivot shaft, and the other end of the drive member 524 is pivotally connected to the outrigger 523 via a fourth pivot shaft. The first, fifth, and third pivot shafts are sequentially spaced along the vehicle height direction Z, and the second and fourth pivot shafts are sequentially spaced along the vehicle height direction Z. In this embodiment, the outrigger assembly 52 consists of an upper connecting rod 521, a lower connecting rod 522, an outrigger 523, and a driving component 524, forming a four-bar linkage structure. The upper connecting rod 521, the lower connecting rod 522, and the driving component 524 are connected to the outrigger box 51 and the outrigger 523 respectively through different pivot shafts. This structure not only enhances the stability of the outrigger 523, enabling it to withstand greater external forces and weight during operation and reducing swaying, but also allows for flexible movement of the outrigger 523, allowing for adjustment of its position and angle according to actual needs. Furthermore, it facilitates precise control of the outrigger 523's deployment and retraction, improving operational accuracy. Additionally, the outrigger 523 can be retracted when not in use, reducing space occupation and facilitating transportation and storage.
[0039] Optionally, the drive element 524 is a telescopic hydraulic cylinder.
[0040] Optionally, in the outrigger mechanism 5, when both outrigger components 52 are fully extended, the maximum width of the two outrigger components 52 along the vehicle width direction Y is 'a', and when both outrigger components 52 are fully retracted, the maximum width of the two outrigger components 52 along the vehicle width direction Y is 'b', where 2 ≤ a / b ≤ 2.5. In this embodiment, this ratio setting ensures that the minimum value of 'b' for the maximum width of the two outrigger components 52 along the vehicle width direction Y is minimized when the outrigger components 52 are retracted, and the maximum value of 'a' for the maximum width of the two outrigger components 52 along the vehicle width direction Y is maximized when the two outrigger components 52 are fully extended. The above ratio was obtained through numerous simulation experiments.
[0041] Preferably, a / b = 2.3.
[0042] Optionally, in the outrigger mechanism 5, when both outrigger assemblies 52 are fully retracted, the maximum width of the two outrigger assemblies 52 along the vehicle width direction Y is b, and the distance between the two outrigger mechanisms 5 along the vehicle length direction X is c, where 2.2 ≤ c / b ≤ 2.8. In this embodiment, when the ratio of c / b falls within the range of 2.2-2.8, the leveling range of each outrigger assembly 52 of the off-road aerial work platform can be greater than 12 degrees. The large leveling range of the outrigger assembly 52 allows the off-road aerial work platform to maintain a level position even on slopes of no more than 12 degrees in any direction. The above ratio was obtained through numerous simulation experiments.
[0043] Preferably, c / b = 2.6.
[0044] Optionally, the chassis 1 further includes a pallet 16, which is located on one side of the longitudinal beam 11 along the vehicle length direction X and is fixedly connected to the outrigger box 51. Along the vehicle length direction X, the pallet 16 extends from the outrigger box 51 in a direction away from the longitudinal beam 11. The off-road aerial work vehicle also includes a cab 6, which is fixedly mounted on the pallet 16. In this embodiment, two pallets 16 are provided, which are spaced apart along the vehicle width direction Y. The cab 6 is mounted on the two pallets 16, thus achieving stable support for the cab 6 by the two pallets 16.
[0045] Optionally, the cab 6 and the pallet 16 are fixed together by bolts.
