Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of engineering machinery, in particular to a steering limit device for an arm-type aerial work platform. Background Art

[0002] Aerial work platform is a widely used aerial work machine, which can greatly improve the work efficiency and safety of aerial construction. In the use of aerial work platform, steering is a very frequent action. Due to frequent steering, the existing structure relies on the cylinder stroke to limit the steering angle. Over time, the steering cylinder is prone to fatigue damage and the cylinder life is reduced. Utility Model Content

[0003] The utility model aims to provide a steering limit device for an arm-type aerial work platform, which mechanically limits the maximum steering angle of the steering knuckle through a structural limiter, thereby solving the existing problems of easy fatigue damage and short service life of the cylinder due to the limitation of the cylinder stroke.

[0004] The above technical objectives of the utility model are achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0005] A steering limit device for an arm-type aerial work platform comprises a front axle, two steering knuckles arranged on the left and right, a steering cylinder and a steering connecting rod; the two steering knuckles are rotatably connected to the two ends of the front axle respectively, and the steering cylinder is connected to the steering knuckle through the steering connecting rod; a structural limiter is provided at one end of the front axle connected to the steering knuckle, and two structural limiters are symmetrically arranged.

[0006] When the steering knuckle rotates, the steering knuckle contacts the structural limiter, and the structural limiter limits the maximum rotation angle of the steering knuckle, thereby protecting the oil cylinder. Since two structural limiters are symmetrically arranged, the left steering limit position and the right steering limit position of the corresponding steering knuckle can be controlled.

[0007] The utility model is further configured as follows: the front axle comprises a pair of main connecting plates fixedly connected front and rear, and the ends of the pair of main connecting plates are fixed with a top plate and a bottom plate;

[0008] The steering knuckle comprises a pair of support blocks symmetrically arranged up and down, short shafts are fixed on the support blocks, and the two short shafts are rotatably connected to the corresponding top plate and bottom plate respectively;

[0009] The structural limiting member comprises a limiting block fixed on the top plate or the bottom plate, and the limiting block is arranged close to the supporting block and located on the inner side of the supporting block.

[0010] The support block includes an integrally formed arc surface and straight surfaces arranged at both ends of the arc surface and tangent to the arc surface. The straight surface can contact the limit block by rotating a certain angle with the short axis as the axis.

[0011] Through the above technical solution, the structural limiter can be fixed on the front axle by welding, and when the steering knuckle rotates, the straight surface of the support block presses against the corresponding limiter block, which is the maximum angle of the steering knuckle.

[0012] The utility model can also be configured as follows: the front axle comprises a pair of main connecting plates fixedly connected front and rear, and the ends of the pair of main connecting plates are fixed with a top plate and a bottom plate;

[0013] The structural limiting member includes a limiting protrusion formed at the front end of the bottom plate;

[0014] The steering knuckle comprises a pair of support blocks symmetrically arranged up and down, short shafts are fixed on the support blocks, and the two short shafts are rotatably connected to the corresponding top plate and bottom plate respectively;

[0015] The steering knuckle comprises a side support plate, and the side support plate can be in contact with the limiting protrusion.

[0016] The limiting protrusion is in a triangular block shape.

[0017] With the above technical solution, when the steering knuckle rotates and the side support plate contacts the limiting protrusion, the maximum rotation angle of the steering knuckle is reached;

[0018] The structural limiter is integrally formed on the front axle, and the structural limiter and the front axle are arranged as a whole, which can further improve the accuracy of the turning angle and the extreme position accuracy of the steering knuckle in two directions.

[0019] The outstanding effects of the utility model are:

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the maximum steering angle of the steering knuckle is mechanically limited by a structural limiter, solving the problem of the prior art of the cylinder being easily fatigued and damaged and having a short service life due to the cylinder stroke limitation.

[0021] By welding the structural limiter to the front axle or arranging the structural limiter and the front axle as one, the assembly of the limiter structure can be facilitated. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
