DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0022] Reference Figure 1-Figure 4 A loader counterweight comprises a fixed frame 1, a counterweight box 2 is fixedly mounted on the fixed frame 1, the counterweight box 2 is filled with sand, a movable slot is opened on the fixed frame 1, a threaded rod 3 is horizontally rotatably mounted in the movable slot, a driving motor 4 is fixedly mounted at one end of the fixed frame 1, one end of the threaded rod 3 passes through the movable slot and is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the driving motor 4, the fixed frame 1 is fixedly mounted on the chassis of the loader, and the counterweight box 2 is located at the tail of the loader;

[0023] A moving block 5 is threadedly sleeved on the threaded rod 3, a mounting plate 6 is fixedly mounted on the lower surface of the moving block 5, a plurality of fixing frames 7 are mounted on the mounting plate 6 via a connecting assembly, and a counterweight block 8 is fixedly mounted on each of the plurality of fixing frames 7.

[0024] When it is necessary to adjust the position of the center of gravity of the counterweight according to the working conditions, start the driving motor 4 to drive the threaded rod 3 to rotate, and then drive the moving block 5 to move in the moving groove through the threaded rod 3. When the moving block 5 moves, it will drive the mounting plate 6 to move horizontally on the fixed frame 1, and then drive multiple counterweight blocks 8 to move on the fixed frame 1. The counterweight block 8 moves under the loader. When the counterweight block 8 moves away from the counterweight box 2, the center of gravity of the loader moves forward. When the counterweight block 8 moves close to the counterweight box 2, the center of gravity of the loader moves backward, so that the center of gravity of the counterweight on the loader can be adjusted to prevent the loader from tipping over and tilting backward, thereby solving the problem that the center of gravity position of the traditional loader counterweight cannot be adjusted, and improving the overall applicability and flexibility of the loader.

[0025] The connecting assembly includes two connecting blocks 9 fixedly mounted on the mounting plate 6 and two wedge blocks 10 fixedly mounted on the fixing frame 7. The surfaces of the two connecting blocks 9 are provided with slots, and the two wedge blocks 10 are respectively inserted into the two slots. The surfaces of the wedge blocks 10 are provided with a plurality of positioning holes, and the surfaces of the connecting blocks 9 are provided with a plurality of threaded holes all connected to the slots. Bolts 11 are threadedly inserted into the plurality of threaded holes, and one end of the bolt 11 passes through the threaded hole and is inserted into the positioning hole.

[0026] The installation of the counterweight 8 can be achieved by inserting the wedge block 10 into the slot. When the counterweight 8 needs to be replaced with a different counterweight, the bolt 11 can be removed from the threaded hole to release the lock on the wedge block 10, and then the wedge block 10 can be removed from the slot opened on the connecting block 9, thereby completing the disassembly of the counterweight 8.

[0027] The mounting plate 6 is symmetrically provided with movable holes, and support rails 18 are slidably inserted into the two movable holes. Both ends of the support rails 18 are fixedly mounted on the fixing frame 1. The support rails 18 support the mounting plate 6, share the force applied by the counterweight block 8 to the threaded rod 3, and prevent the threaded rod 3 from breaking due to excessive bearing force.

[0028] A sand inlet pipe 12 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the counterweight box 2, and a sand discharge pipe 13 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the lower surface of the counterweight box 2. Valves are installed on the two sand discharge pipes 13. Sand and soil can be added to the counterweight box 2 through the sand inlet pipe 12, thereby increasing the gravity of the counterweight box 2, and the sand and soil in the counterweight box 2 can be discharged through the sand discharge pipe 13 to reduce the gravity of the counterweight box 2, thereby realizing the adjustment of the gravity of the counterweight box 2.

[0029] A moving hole is provided on the side of the counterweight box 2, and a moving plate 14 is slidably installed in the moving hole. A vertical rod 15 is symmetrically fixedly installed at one end of the moving plate 14. The lower ends of the two vertical rods 15 are in sliding contact with the inner bottom of the counterweight box 2. Two rectangular plates 16 are horizontally fixedly installed on the two vertical rods 15, and multiple scraping strips 17 are fixedly installed on the upper and lower surfaces of the rectangular plates 16.

[0030] When filling sand and soil into the counterweight box 2, the movable plate 14 is driven to move back and forth in the movable hole, and then the two vertical rods 15 drive the two rectangular plates 16 to move horizontally in the counterweight box 2. When the rectangular plates 16 move, the scraper strips 17 will drive the sand and soil in the counterweight box 2 to move horizontally, so that the sand and soil can be evenly filled in the counterweight box 2, avoiding the deviation of the center of gravity of the counterweight box 2.

[0031] In the utility model, when it is necessary to adjust the position of the center of gravity of the counterweight according to the working conditions, the driving motor 4 is started, and the moving block 5 is driven to move in the moving groove through the threaded rod 3, and then the multiple counterweight blocks 8 are driven to move on the fixed frame 1 through the mounting plate 6. When the counterweight block 8 moves away from the counterweight box 2, the center of gravity of the loader moves forward, and when the counterweight block 8 moves close to the counterweight box 2, the center of gravity of the loader moves backward, so that the center of gravity of the counterweight on the loader can be adjusted to prevent the loader from tipping over and tilting backward, thereby solving the problem that the center of gravity position of the traditional loader counterweight cannot be adjusted, and improving the overall applicability and flexibility of the loader.

[0032] In general, in view of the technical problem: the existing counterweights are fixedly installed on the loader, so that the center of gravity is fixed, so that the loader cannot adjust the position of the center of gravity of the counterweight according to the upcoming working conditions, and thus cannot make full use of the center of gravity of the counterweight, reducing the overall applicability and flexibility; adopt a technical solution: through the mutual cooperation of the driving motor 4, the threaded rod 3, the moving block 5, the mounting plate 6, the fixed frame 7 and the counterweight block 8, the center of gravity of the counterweight on the loader can be adjusted horizontally; because the implementation process of the technical solution is: when it is necessary to adjust the position of the center of gravity of the counterweight according to the working conditions When the loader is in the state of being moved, the driving motor 4 is started, and the moving block 5 is driven to move in the moving groove through the threaded rod 3, and then the multiple counterweight blocks 8 are driven to move on the fixed frame 1 through the mounting plate 6. When the counterweight block 8 moves away from the counterweight box 2, the center of gravity of the loader moves forward, and when the counterweight block 8 moves close to the counterweight box 2, the center of gravity of the loader moves backward. Therefore, the technical problem can be solved inevitably, and the technical effect achieved is: the center of gravity of the counterweight on the loader can be adjusted to prevent the loader from tipping over and tilting backward, and the problem that the center of gravity position of the counterweight of the traditional loader cannot be adjusted is solved, thereby improving the overall applicability and flexibility of the loader.

[0033] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention according to the technical scheme and the utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
