Combined with the actual situation in the mining process, the vehicles need to operate for more than 20 hours a day, and the comfort problem of the driver during driving has gradually become prominent. Among them, gear shifting is the most frequent action of the driver during vehicle operation, and the effort-saving, light and comfortable gear shifting operation is particularly important.
[0003] However, in the prior art, it is becoming more and more common to use a narrow-body cab on a wide-body mining vehicle.

[0031] In order to better understand the purpose, structure and function of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0032] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the utility model provides a shift mechanism for a mining vehicle, which includes a shift part, a torque transmission part and a rocker arm control part which are sequentially connected in transmission. The shift part includes a shift handle 1, a shift rod 2 and a shifter 4 which are connected from top to bottom. The shifter 4 is fixed in the cab of the mining vehicle through a shift mounting plate 10. The angle between the shift mounting plate 10 and the horizontal plane is P, wherein 4.5°≤P≤6°, preferably 5.5°, and the opening direction of the angle P points to the front of the cab. Through the above arrangement, the gap between the movement trajectory of the shift handle 1 during the shifting process and its surrounding parts can be effectively adjusted to be greater than 50mm, which can effectively prevent the driver's hand from colliding with the surrounding parts of the shift rod 2 during the operation. In addition, in order to prevent dust from accumulating in the shift rod 2 and the shifter 4 in the cab, in this embodiment, a dust cover 3 is provided between the root of the shift rod 2 and the shift mounting plate 10.
[0033] Furthermore, the shifter 4 includes a shift arm and a gear selection arm, and the shift lever 2 is respectively connected to the shift arm and the gear selection arm in transmission connection; the torque transmission part includes a shift flexible shaft 5 and a gear selection flexible shaft 9, the output end of the shift arm is connected to the shift flexible shaft 5 in transmission connection, and the output end of the gear selection arm is connected to the gear selection flexible shaft 9 in transmission connection.
[0034] A conventional shift arm generally includes an upper shift arm and a lower shift arm that are integrally arranged. The difference between this embodiment and the conventional technology is that the shift lever ratio i1 of the shifter 4 = the length of the shift rod 2 / the length of the lower shift arm, wherein the length of the shift rod 2 is set to 530 mm, and the length of the lower shift arm of the shift arm is 91 mm, and the shift lever ratio i1 is calculated to be 5.824.
[0035] Furthermore, a conventional gear select arm includes an upper gear select arm, a middle gear select arm and a lower gear select arm. The difference between this embodiment and the conventional technology is that the gear select lever ratio i2 of the gear shifter 4 in this embodiment is i2=(length of the gear shift lever 2 / length of the upper gear select arm)*(length of the middle gear select arm / length of the lower gear select arm), wherein the length of the gear shift lever 2 is set to 530 mm, the length of the upper gear select arm is 44.4 mm, the length of the middle gear select arm is 29 mm, and the length of the lower gear select arm is 65 mm, and the calculated gear select lever ratio i2=5.325.
[0036] In addition, the shift mechanism in this embodiment also includes a gearbox, the shift soft shaft 5 is connected to the gearbox through the shift rocker arm 6, the gear selection soft shaft 9 is connected to the gearbox through the gear selection rocker arm 7, and the shift rocker arm 6 and the gear selection rocker arm 7 are arranged outside the gearbox through a soft shaft bracket 8.
[0037] Different from the conventional technical solution, the gearbox shift effective stroke S1 of the gearbox in this embodiment is 2*gearbox end shift radius*sin(gearbox shift center angle / 2), wherein the gearbox shift radius is set to 80 mm, the gearbox shift center angle is set to 12.5°, and the gearbox shift effective stroke S1 is calculated to be 17.4 mm;
[0038] The gearbox's gear selection effective stroke S2=2*gearbox end gear selection radius*sin(gearbox gear selection center angle / 2), wherein the gearbox end gear selection radius is set to 65 mm, the gearbox gear selection center angle is set to 12.5°, and the calculated gearbox gear selection effective stroke S2=16.9 mm.
[0039] From this, the effective shifting stroke of the shift lever 2 can be calculated:
[0040] The effective shifting stroke of the shift lever 2 = shift lever ratio i1 * gearbox effective shifting stroke / (shift flexible shaft 5 efficiency * shifter 4 efficiency * flexible shaft layout efficiency), wherein the shift flexible shaft 5 efficiency is 0.85, the shifter 4 efficiency is 0.9, and the flexible shaft layout efficiency is 0.95. The calculated effective shifting stroke of the shift lever 2 = 139.5 mm.
[0041] Effective gear selection travel of shift lever 2:
[0042] The effective gear selection stroke of the shift lever 2 = gear selection lever ratio i2 * gearbox effective gear selection stroke / (shift flexible shaft 5 efficiency * shifter 4 efficiency * flexible shaft layout efficiency), wherein the shift flexible shaft 5 efficiency is 0.85, the shifter 4 efficiency is 0.9, and the flexible shaft layout efficiency is 0.95. Calculation shows that the effective gear selection stroke of the shift lever 2 = 123.8 mm.
[0043] And the shift force of shift lever 2:
[0044] The shifting force of the shift lever 2 = the maximum shifting force at the gearbox end / (the gearbox end shifting radius / 65.5 * the shift lever ratio) / (the efficiency of the shifting flexible shaft 5 * the efficiency of the shifter 4 * the efficiency of the flexible shaft arrangement);
[0045] The maximum shifting force at the transmission end is 265N, and the shifting force of the shift lever 2 is calculated to be 51.7N.
[0046] Shift lever 2 selection force:
[0047] The shift lever 2's shifting force = maximum shift lever force at the gearbox end / (gearbox end shifting radius / 55 * shift lever ratio) / (shift flexible shaft 5 efficiency * shifter 4 efficiency * flexible shaft arrangement efficiency);
[0048] The maximum gear selection force at the transmission end is 325N, and the gear selection force of the shift lever 2 is calculated to be 71.7N.
[0049] This embodiment sets the length of the shift lever 2, the size of the shift arm and the gear selection arm in the shifter 4, the gear shift radius and the gear selection radius at the transmission end, and the angle of the gear selection center angle and the gear shift center angle, and adjusts the efficiency of the shift flexible shaft 5, the efficiency of the shifter 4 and the flexible shaft arrangement rate, so as to effectively reduce the effective shift and gear selection stroke of the shift lever 2, reduce the operating force when operating the shift lever 2 for shifting and selecting gears, and effectively improve the comfort of the driver for long-term driving in a narrow-body cab.
[0050] It should be noted that the shift arm, gear selection arm and other components involved in this embodiment are all existing technologies, and the technical problem to be solved by this embodiment does not involve their structure. Therefore, there is no need to mark them in the figure.
