[0025] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] As shown by Figures 1 to 3 , it includes a column 1 connected to the working arm of the vehicle. A working bucket 2 is arranged on the front side of the column 1. A mounting plate 3 is fixed to the bottom of the rear side of the working bucket 2. Two symmetrically distributed mounting blocks 4 are fixedly connected to the mounting plate 3. A first connecting column 5 and a second connecting column 6 that are symmetrically arranged up and down penetrate between the two mounting blocks 4 respectively. Both the first connecting column 5 and the second connecting column 6 are rotatably connected to the mounting blocks 4. The cross-section of the column 1 is a "C"-shaped structure. A support arm 7 is rotatably connected to the top of the column 1. The support arm 7 is also a "C"-shaped structure. One end of the support arm 7 away from the column 1 is fixedly connected to the first connecting column 5. Both the left and right sides of the column 1 are rotatably connected to auxiliary arms 8. It should be noted that the support arm 7 and the auxiliary arms 8 should be made of materials with strong toughness and can withstand large radial loads. One end of each of the two auxiliary arms 8 away from the column 1 is fixedly connected to the second connecting column 6. The support arm 7 and the two auxiliary arms 8 are of the same length;

[0027] An oil cylinder base 9 is fixed to the inner wall of the column 1. An oil cylinder 10 is rotatably connected to the oil cylinder base 9. The output end of the oil cylinder 10 is rotatably connected to the first connecting column 5. The support arm 7, the mounting blocks 4, the auxiliary arms 8 and the column 1 form a parallelogram structure. Through the settings of the support arm 7, the two auxiliary arms 8, the mounting blocks 4, the column 1 and the oil cylinder 10, etc., when making small adjustments to the working bucket 2, according to the characteristics of the parallelogram structure, during the process of the oil cylinder 10 stretching and contracting, the working bucket 2 can make small position changes, avoiding frequent adjustment of the working arm, improving work efficiency. At the same time, after the working bucket 2 is retracted at the end of the operation, the occupied space of the oil cylinder 10 and its connecting parts is very small.

[0028] Refer to Figures 4 to 6As shown, the cylinder base 9 is generally fixed by bolts. In order to make the cylinder 10 in a more labor-saving position, the output end of the cylinder 10 is always connected to the first connecting column 5. The position of the cylinder base 9 needs to be adjusted according to actual needs. At this time, the position of the cylinder base 9 needs to be adjusted multiple times to obtain the best placement position. If the bolt connection method is adopted, it will be very troublesome, time-consuming and labor-intensive. A fixed plate 11 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the column 1, and a movable plate 12 that slides up and down is provided on one side of the fixed plate 11. The cylinder base 9 is fixedly connected to the movable plate 12, and racks 13 are respectively fixed on the left and right sides of the fixed plate 11. Two symmetrically distributed slide grooves 14 are provided on the fixed plate 11. The four corners of the movable plate 12 are fixed with support columns 15, and the four support columns 15 are respectively inserted into the corresponding slide grooves 14, and the four support columns 15 are coaxially fixed with gears 16, and the four gears 16 are respectively engaged with the corresponding racks 13. It is further supplemented to the slide grooves 14 and the support columns 15 that in order to prevent the movable plate 12 from falling off during the up and down movement, the cross section of the slide groove 14 is a "T"-shaped structure, and the bottom of the support column 15 can be set to a "T"-shaped structure matching the slide groove 14. Through the settings of the rack 13, the gear 16, the movable plate 12 and the slide groove 14, the worker can directly control the up and down movement of the movable plate 12 to select the position of the cylinder base 9, so as to make the cylinder 10 in the most labor-saving position as much as possible;

[0029] In order to facilitate the limiting of the four gears 16, the upper and lower sides of the movable plate 12 are respectively fixed with limit boxes 17, and the left and right sides of the limit box 17 are respectively penetrated with a plurality of limit rods 18, and the plurality of limit rods 18 are respectively connected to the limit box 17 through springs. The movable plate 12 is provided with a plurality of slots 19 matching the limit rods 18, and the limit rod 18 is fixedly connected with a lever 20 matching the slot 19. Through the settings of the limit box 17, the limit rod 18, the slot 19 and the lever 20, when the movable plate 12 is adjusted, the lever 20 is manually moved, and the limit rod 18 is not engaged with the gear 16 at this time. When the lever 20 is released, the limit rod 18 is inserted into the tooth groove of the gear 16 to form a locking connection. Compared with the bolt connection method, this method is simpler and faster, and there will be no problem of multiple punchings affecting the supporting strength of the column 1.

[0030] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 7As shown, considering that it is rather strenuous to manually toggle the toggles 20 when there are a large number of toggles 20, two symmetrically distributed moving grooves 21 are respectively formed on the upper and lower sides of the movable plate 12, and two moving plates 22 are respectively slidably connected to the left and right sides of the movable plate 12. The four moving plates 22 respectively slide in the corresponding moving grooves 21. Through the arrangement of the moving grooves 21 and the moving plates 22, the worker only needs to toggle the moving plates 22 to adjust multiple toggles 20, which is more convenient and labor-saving.

[0031] Reference Figure 7 As shown, in order to facilitate the worker to operate the toggle 20 with one hand, the same connecting rod 23 is fixed between the two vertically symmetric moving plates 22.

[0032] Considering that the rack 13, the gear 16 and the limiting rod 18 need to bear large radial loads, the materials of the gear 16, the rack 13 and the multiple limiting rods 18 are all alloy steel.

[0033] When the present utility model is in use:

[0034] First, the worker drives the moving plates 22 on the left and right sides to approach each other with one hand. At this time, multiple toggles 20 drive the limiting rods 18 to simultaneously disengage from the gear 16, and then move the movable plate 12 to a specified position. Release the moving plate 22, and the limiting rod 18 is inserted into the tooth groove of the gear 16 again under the action of the spring;

[0035] It should be noted that for the determination of the position of the oil cylinder base 9, it is generally necessary to repeat it more than twice to determine the relatively labor-saving position of the oil cylinder 10;

[0036] Then, when making a small adjustment to the working bucket 2, control the telescopic amount of the oil cylinder 10. According to the characteristics of the parallelogram structure, during the telescopic process of the oil cylinder 10, the working bucket 2 can make a small position change.

[0037] Although the embodiments of the present utility model have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present utility model. The scope of the present utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
