The storage battery G002 is connected to the hydraulic pilot solenoid valve Y013 through a foot control switch 12 or the storage battery G002 is connected to the hydraulic pilot solenoid valve Y013 through the override switch S207. The storage battery G002 is the power source for all electrical components. The start switch S001 is used to control the start and stop of the hydraulic drive device 4. The hydraulic pilot solenoid valve Y013 is used to convert an electrical signal into a pressure signal of a low-pressure control oil circuit. The hydraulic main valve 1 is used to adjust the pressure of a high-pressure working oil circuit according to the hydraulic pilot pressure.

[0025] Combined Figure 2 with Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the quick-change device 2 includes an attachment connection block 21 provided at one end of the entire loader. The attachment connection block 21 has a rectangular structure. One end of the attachment assembly 3 is provided with an attachment mounting seat 31. An attachment mounting groove 32 corresponding to the attachment connection block 21 is provided in the attachment mounting seat 31. Pin shafts 22 fixed to the attachment mounting seat 31 are respectively provided on both sides of one end of the attachment connection block 21 away from the attachment mounting seat 31.

[0026] Among them, a high-pressure working oil circuit 13 for the attachment with a quick connector 14 is respectively connected to the hydraulic main valve 1. The attachment assembly 3 is connected to the high-pressure working oil circuit 13 for the attachment of the hydraulic main valve 1 through the quick connector 14. The attachment connection block 21 is designed as a rectangular connection block, and a common high-pressure working oil circuit 17 is reserved. The attachment mounting groove 32 of the attachment assembly 3 matches the attachment connection block 21. The driver operates the machine to insert the attachment connection block 21 into the attachment mounting groove 32 and makes it reliably connected through the pin shafts 22. At the same time, any attachment can be quickly replaced as long as it is equipped with a suitable mounting groove.

[0027] As Figure 1 shown in the figure, the hydraulic drive device 4 includes an engine 41 connected to a hydraulic pump 42. The hydraulic pump 42 is connected to a hydraulic oil tank 43. The engine 41 is connected to the start switch S001 through the override switch S207. The hydraulic pump 42 is respectively connected to the hydraulic main valve 1 and the hydraulic pilot solenoid valve Y013. The engine 41 drives the hydraulic pump 42 to move. The hydraulic pump 42 sucks hydraulic oil from the hydraulic oil tank 43 and converts it into high-pressure oil. The hydraulic oil tank 43 is used to store hydraulic oil.

[0028] Among them, the foot control switch 12 includes a foot pedal 15, and an electromagnetic switch S028 is provided on the lower side of the foot pedal 15 and is connected to the storage battery G002 and the hydraulic pilot solenoid valve Y013.

[0029] Specifically, the override switch S207 has a safety protection module. The override switch S207 is used to control the hydraulic pilot solenoid valve Y013.

[0030] Furthermore, the safety protection module includes a normally open switch group and a normally closed switch group. The storage battery G002 is connected to the hydraulic pilot solenoid valve Y013 through the normally open switch group, and when the normally open switch group is pressed, the normally open switch group switches to a closed state. The start switch S001 is connected to the hydraulic drive device 4 through the normally closed switch group, and when the normally closed switch group is pressed, the normally closed switch group switches to an open state. The override switch S207 internally integrates two groups of switches, one is a normally open switch group and the other is a normally closed switch group. The normally open switch group is used to control the hydraulic pilot solenoid valve Y013. When the switch is pressed, the normally open switch group switches to a closed state. The normally closed switch group is used to control the start of the engine 41. When the switch is pressed, the normally closed switch group switches to an open state.

[0031] Furthermore, the attachment assembly 3 is any one of a stirrer 33, a sieve 34, and a drill 35.

[0032] The specific operation method includes the following steps:

[0033] S1. When the driver is in the operating position, the voltage of the storage battery G002 is transmitted to the foot control switch 12 through a wire. The driver steps on the foot control switch 12 to make it conductive, and the voltage continues to be transmitted to the hydraulic pilot solenoid valve Y013; or, when the driver is not in the operating position, the driver presses the override switch S207 to transmit the voltage of the storage battery G002 to the hydraulic pilot solenoid valve Y013;

[0034] S2. The hydraulic pilot solenoid valve Y013 makes the low-pressure control oil circuit conductive and transmits it to the control handle 11;

[0035] S3. The driver operates the control handle 11 to transmit the pressure of the low-pressure control oil circuit to the hydraulic main valve 1;

[0036] S4. The hydraulic main valve 1 makes the high-pressure working oil circuit conductive and transmits the high-pressure oil provided by the hydraulic pump 42 to the attachment assembly 3 through a pipeline, so that it completes the corresponding work according to the driver's intention.

[0037] In step S1, if the driver forgets to lift the override switch S207 when the machine is stopped, and the control handle 11 is in the working position, and the attachment assembly 3 is already in the operable state, if the engine 41 is started, the high-pressure working oil provided by the hydraulic pump 42 will directly cause the attachment assembly 3 to move. To ensure safety and prevent misoperation by the driver, the override switch S207 will disconnect the engine 41 starting circuit through the internal normally closed switch group, preventing the engine 41 from starting; after lifting the override switch S207, the engine 41 can be started normally.

[0038] As Figure 4 shown, the thin solid line represents no current passing through, and the thick solid line represents current passing through. The main power switch S008 is closed, the start switch S001 is turned to the energized position, and current is output from port 6.

[0039] As Figure 5 shown, the start switch S001 is turned to the start position, current is output from port 7, port 50 of the starter M001 is energized, and the starter M001 starts. The driver stands at the operating position and steps on the foot pedal 15 to close the solenoid switch S028. Subsequently, the pilot relay K152 and the attachment relay K149 are turned on, and the hydraulic pilot solenoid valve Y013 and the attachment solenoid valve Y208 are energized to build pressure in the hydraulic system, allowing the control handle 11 to control the movement of the attachment.

[0040] As Figure 6 shown, when the override switch S207 is pressed: the connection between port 5 - port 7 is switched to port 5 - port 1, disconnecting the start signal; the connection between port 6 - port 8 is switched to port 6 - port 2, controlling the attachment solenoid valve Y208. When the driver leaves the operating position, the solenoid switch S028 is disconnected, and the pilot relay K152 and the attachment relay K149 are switched to the off state, while the attachment solenoid valve Y208 is powered by the override switch S207.

[0041] The principle of this embodiment is as follows:

[0042] The whole loader adopts a quick-change device 2. The quick-change device 2 can be connected to a variety of attachments. The attachment assembly 3 is connected to the attachment connection block 21 of the quick-change device 2 through the attachment mounting seat 31. The attachment connection block 21 is installed in the attachment mounting groove 32, and then the attachment connection block 21 and the attachment mounting seat 31 are fixed with a pin member 22. At the same time, the attachment assembly 3 is connected to the attachment high-pressure working oil circuit 13 through a quick connector 14, thus realizing the operation of the attachment assembly 3.
