Specific embodiments

[0042] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present utility model, but are not used to limit the scope of the present utility model.

[0043] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "inner", "outer", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of the present utility model.

[0044] In the description of the present utility model, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0045] The present utility model mainly solves the problem that the rain shower test of the excavator cab is generally carried out by spraying the cab in the stopped state of the excavator, which cannot truly simulate the harsh working conditions of the excavator, resulting in water leakage in the cab with qualified sealing performance still occurring in the market. In addition, most of the rain shower test sites proposed by various excavator manufacturers use expensive equipment such as booster pumps, nozzles and control systems, and less consideration is given to the recycling of water resources.

[0046] Based on this, the utility model proposes a rain test device for the cab of an excavator. The excavator is driven on a vibrating runway to simulate the adverse working conditions of the excavator. The rain test in this state can ensure the sealing performance of the cab of the excavator under the most unfavorable conditions. The rain test device uses two filter screens for mobile shielding to achieve light rain, moderate rain and heavy rain. The use of a simple water shielding plate eliminates expensive equipment such as a booster pump, a nozzle and a control system, and is also equipped with a water resource recycling function.

[0047] To achieve the above purpose, Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, the excavator cab rain test device includes a vibration runway, a rain device and a filtering and recovery device; the vibration runway is used to carry the excavator, and the excavator can generate vibration during its walking process; the rain device is used to simulate rain and conduct a rain test on the excavator; the filtering and recovery device is used to filter and recover the sewage generated in the excavator rain test, and is used as a water source for the rain device to simulate rain.

[0048] The above-mentioned vibration runway is further described below.

[0049] The vibration runway includes an excavator walking plane 9, a protective steel plate, a support column 5 and an obstacle pier 8. The excavator walking plane 9 is a reinforced concrete structure, which is covered by a protective steel plate to prevent the crawler from crushing the plane. The vibration runway is supported by the support column 5 and is symmetrically distributed on the left and right.

[0050] Obstacle piers 8 of a certain height and number are arranged on the runway to make the excavator vibrate significantly during its travel, thus stimulating the excavator cab to vibrate strongly, so as to detect the sealing performance of various parts of the cab during the rain test, thereby evaluating the reliability of the cab.

[0051] The above-mentioned shower device is further described below.

[0052] like Figure 1 As shown, the shower device includes a water shielding plate 12, a liftable fan 13, a pipeline 14 and a water pump 10; the left and right water pumps 10 pump the clean water in the filtering and recovery device into the pipeline 14 respectively for use in the shower device. When the clean water recovery is insufficient, tap water is used to supplement it.

[0053] like Figure 3 As shown, the water shielding plate 12 is arranged above the excavator, which is mainly composed of two water flow filters. The two water flow filters are used for movable shielding to achieve adjustment of light rain, moderate rain and heavy rain. The use of a simple water shielding plate avoids the use of expensive equipment such as booster pumps, nozzles and control systems, saving the cost of rain test.

[0054] like Figure 1As shown, the liftable fans 13 on the left and right sides can be lifted according to the height of the cab, and the size of the simulated air volume can be adjusted according to the test requirements, so as to change the falling angle of the rainwater.

[0055] In a further solution, the water shielding tray 12 is connected to the connecting plate 110 located at the outlet of the pipeline 14 through an adjustable connecting member; the adjustable connecting member includes a plurality of adjustable support rods 111, and the adjustable support rods 111 are hinged between the connecting plate 110 and the water shielding tray 12. The height of the water shielding tray 12 is adjusted by adjusting the lengths of all the adjustable support rods 111; the installation angle of the water shielding tray 12 is adjusted by adjusting the lengths of several adjustable support rods 111, so as to adjust the vertically downward projection area of the water shielding tray 12 for covering the cab roofs of different types of excavators.

[0056] It should be noted that the adjustable support rod 111 can be an electric rod or a manual rod.

[0057] The above-mentioned filtering and recycling device is further described below.

[0058] The filtering and recycling device includes a gravel protection device and a sewage and quicksand filtering device; the gravel protection device is arranged on the walking plane 9 of the excavator to conduct a rough filtration on the gravel washed off the excavator; the sewage and quicksand filtering device is arranged below the gravel protection device to conduct a fine filtration and recycling on the sewage flowing down from the gravel protection device to be used as the water source for the rain shower device.

[0059] In a further solution, the gravel protection device is composed of a gravel filtering container 7 detachably installed on the walking plane 9 of the excavator and a honeycomb filter screen 6 located on the gravel filtering container 7. The honeycomb filter screen 6 prevents huge gravel and stones attached to the surfaces such as the crawler and chassis of the excavator from falling into the gravel filtering container 7, thereby damaging the filtering device. The gravel filtering container 7 can filter larger particle sand and stones and can be detachably dumped for easy daily cleaning and maintenance.

[0060] In a further solution, the sewage and quicksand filtering device includes a flowing sedimentation table 4, a fine sand filter screen 3, a fine sand filtering container 2 and a sedimentation tank 1; the flowing sedimentation table 4 is arranged directly below the gravel protection device, and the flowing sedimentation table 4 has a structure that is high in the middle and low at both ends; the fine sand filter screen 3 and the fine sand filtering container 2 are respectively arranged on both sides of the flowing sedimentation table 4 to conduct a fine filtration on the sewage flowing down from the flowing sedimentation table 4; the sedimentation tank 1 is arranged at the fine sand filtering container 2, and the water after fine filtration flows into the sedimentation tank 1 for sedimentation, and the clear water after sedimentation is used as the water source for the rain shower device.

[0061] After the sewage passes through the flowing sand settling platform 4 and then through the fine sand filter screen 3, the fine sand basically remains in the fine sand filtering container 2; the fine sand filtering container 2 is detachable, which is convenient for daily cleaning and maintenance; the sewage is filtered again and then enters the sedimentation tank 1. After sedimentation, the upper layer basically does not contain sediment and can be used as clean water.

[0062] A further solution also includes an automatic water replenishment calculation device. When the water source in the filtering and recycling device is insufficient, the automatic water replenishment calculation device can calculate the amount of water to be replenished for the rain shower device.

[0063] The above automatic water replenishment calculation device is further described below.

[0064] The automatic water replenishment calculation system includes a rain shower test time calculation module, a rain shower test water volume calculation module, and a tap water replenishment volume calculation module.

[0065] Since the cab areas of different excavator models are different, the required rain shower test time and rain shower test water volume are also different. The rain shower test time and rain shower test water volume can be determined with reference to the excavator vibration track speed, the length of the excavator cab roof, and the simulated rainfall amount.

[0066] In the rain shower test time calculation module, the rain shower test time is the time from when the excavator cab enters the area that has not undergone the rain shower test until it is completely within it. Let the excavator vibration track speed be v1 and the length of the excavator cab roof be l. Then the rain shower test time t is as shown in Equation 1.

[0067]

[0068] In the formula: t is the rain shower test time; l is the length of the excavator cab roof; v1 is the excavator vibration track speed.

[0069] In the rain shower test water volume calculation module, the rain shower test water volume V is the product of the rain shower test time t and the water flow rate Q.

[0070] The water flow rate Q is the product of the unobstructed area S of the water shielding plate and the water flow velocity v2.

[0071] Since no power equipment is used, the water velocity is in free fall motion.

[0072] The rain shower test water volume V is as shown in Equation 2.

[0073]

[0074] In the formula: V is the rain shower test water volume; Q is the water flow rate; v2 is the water flow velocity; S is the unobstructed area of the water shielding plate; g is the acceleration due to free fall; h is the distance from the rain shower device to the excavator cab roof.

[0075] In the tap water replenishment volume calculation module, the tap water replenishment volume is as shown in Equation 3.

[0076] m Tap = ρV - m pst (3)

[0077] Where: m Tap is the make-up water volume of tap water; m pst is the clear water volume of the sedimentation tank; ρ is the density of water.

[0078] In summary, the present utility model uses a excavator to get rained on when walking on a vibrating runway, which can simulate the rain test of the excavator under harsh operating conditions to ensure the sealing performance of the excavator cab under the most unfavorable conditions. This rain test device realizes the adjustment of light rain, moderate rain, heavy rain, etc. through the mobile shielding of two filters. The use of a simple water shielding tray eliminates expensive equipment such as booster pumps, nozzles, and control systems. At the same time, it is equipped with a function of recycling water resources. The terrain where the rain test device for the excavator cab is located is relatively low, and the waste water can be reused during the rain test, and the rainwater can also be filtered and recycled on rainy days, which has high environmental protection performance.

[0079] In the specification provided here, a large number of specific details are described. However, it can be understood that the embodiments of the present utility model can be practiced without these specific details. In some instances, well-known methods, structures, and technologies are not shown in detail so as not to obscure the understanding of this specification.

[0080] In addition, those skilled in the art can understand that although some of the embodiments described herein include certain features contained in other embodiments rather than other features, the combination of the features of different embodiments also means being within the protection scope of the present utility model and forms different embodiments. For example, in the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can use them in combination according to the known technical solutions and the technical problems to be solved by this application.

[0081] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and do not impose any form of limitation on the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with the preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present utility model.
