Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of the lower frame, and particularly relates to a lightweight excavator lower frame. Background Art

[0002] A lightweight excavator lower frame is an important structural component specifically designed for excavators. It is usually made of high-strength but relatively light materials. While ensuring sufficient strength and stiffness to support the upper structure of the excavator and bear various working loads, its own weight is reduced as much as possible. Such a lower frame generally includes main parts such as girders, cross beams, and track frames, as well as some auxiliary structures that may be equipped. Its design focuses on the rationality and optimization of the structure to improve the overall performance and mobility of the excavator. In addition, some special designs may be considered, such as shock-absorbing structures to reduce the impact of vibrations and noises on the operator, and characteristics that are convenient for maintenance and assembly to reduce the use cost and improve the reliability of the equipment.

[0003] The existing lower frame device has obvious deficiencies during use. Since no shock-absorbing device is provided, when the excavator is operating, the engine running, the track moving, and various mechanical components working will generate a large amount of vibrations and noises. These vibrations will be directly transmitted to the lower frame, and then affect the entire body of the excavator. In such a working environment, the operator is easily affected by the noises and vibrations. The noise will not only damage the hearing of the operator, but also interfere with their attention, affecting work efficiency and operation accuracy. The continuous vibrations will make the operator feel fatigued and uncomfortable. Long-term exposure to such a working environment may even have an adverse impact on their physical health. In addition, the lack of a shock-absorbing device may also lead to increased wear of the lower frame and other components connected to it, shortening the service life of the equipment and increasing the maintenance cost. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a lightweight excavator lower frame. By setting a buffer mechanism, it solves the problems that when the excavator is operating, the engine running, the track moving, and various mechanical components working will generate a large amount of vibrations and noises. These vibrations will be directly transmitted to the lower frame, and then affect the entire body of the excavator. In such a working environment, the operator is easily affected by the noises and vibrations. The noise will not only damage the hearing of the operator, but also interfere with their attention, affecting work efficiency and operation accuracy. The continuous vibrations will make the operator feel fatigued and uncomfortable. Long-term exposure to such a working environment may even have an adverse impact on their physical health. In addition, the lack of a shock-absorbing device may also lead to increased wear of the lower frame and other components connected to it, shortening the service life of the equipment and increasing the maintenance cost.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present utility model is realized through the following technical solutions:

[0006] The present utility model relates to a lightweight lower frame of an excavator, including a cross beam, on which a buffer mechanism and a configuration mechanism are provided;

[0007] The buffer mechanism includes two U-shaped blocks I fixedly connected to the bottom of the cross beam. Connecting rods are hinged to the inner walls of the two U-shaped blocks I. Two girders are provided at the bottom of the cross beam. Return-shaped sliders are slidably connected to the inner walls of the two girders. U-shaped blocks II are fixedly connected to the two return-shaped sliders. The ends of the two connecting rods far from the cross beam are respectively hinged to the two U-shaped blocks II. Dampers I are fixedly connected to the tops of the two connecting rods. The tops of the two dampers I are fixedly connected to the cross beam. Springs I are wound around the outer walls of the two dampers I.

[0008] Furthermore, one end of each of the two springs I is fixedly connected to the cross beam, and the other end of each of the two springs I is fixedly connected to the two connecting rods.

[0009] Furthermore, the configuration mechanism includes two reinforcement components and a limiting component. The reinforcement component includes a limiting groove opened in the inner wall of the girder. The limiting groove communicates with the return-shaped slider. A threaded rod is slidably sleeved on the inner wall of the limiting groove. A manual turntable is threadedly sleeved on the outer wall of the threaded rod. The manual turntable contacts the return-shaped slider.

[0010] Furthermore, a folding groove is opened on the threaded rod. Two folding rods are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the folding groove. A damper II is fixedly connected to the side where the two folding rods are close to each other.

[0011] Furthermore, a spring II is wound around the outer wall of the damper II. The ends of the spring II far from each other are fixedly connected to the two folding rods.

[0012] Furthermore, the limiting component includes a turntable rotatably sleeved on the cross beam. A sleeve is fixedly connected to the top of the turntable. A hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the bottom of the sleeve. A plurality of U-shaped blocks are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sleeve. Connecting rods I are hinged to the plurality of U-shaped blocks. The ends of the plurality of connecting rods I far from the sleeve are respectively hinged to a plurality of clamps.

[0013] Furthermore, the output end of the hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to a triangular slider. Connecting rods II are hinged to the triangular slider. The ends of the plurality of connecting rods II far from the sleeve are respectively hinged to the plurality of clamps.

[0014] The present utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] (1) The utility model reduces the impact on operators by setting a buffer mechanism. When the vibration and noise generated by the movement of the crawler or the operation of mechanical components are applied to the girder, the girder transfers the received vibration to the second U-shaped block. The second U-shaped block cooperates with the first U-shaped block at the bottom of the crossbeam, enabling the connecting rod between the second U-shaped block and the first U-shaped block to move up and down. During the up and down movement of the connecting rod, the first damper and the first spring on it can relieve the received vibration, thereby reducing the vibration transmitted to the cockpit on the crossbeam and avoiding adverse effects on the operator.

[0016] (2) The utility model reduces the impact on operators by setting a configuration mechanism. In use, first, the two girders can be respectively inserted into the loop-shaped sliders at the bottom of the crossbeam. After the insertion is completed, the threaded rod is inserted into the limiting groove between the girder and the loop-shaped slider. During the insertion process, the two folding rods at the top of the threaded rod can approach each other and compress the second damper and the second spring inside them. In this way, the two folding rods can contract into the folding grooves on the threaded rod, preventing interference with the smooth penetration of the threaded rod through the limiting groove. When the threaded rod penetrates, the two folding rods will expand under the combined action of the second damper and the second spring on them. Then, rotate the manual turntable on the outer wall of the threaded rod to tighten the threaded rod with the cooperation of the two folding rods. Through this setting, the girder and the loop-shaped slider on the threaded rod can be quickly fixed together, effectively reducing the cumbersome processes of installation and disassembly, and thus improving work efficiency.

[0017] Of course, it is not necessary for any product implementing the utility model to achieve all the above advantages simultaneously. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0033] By rotating the manual turntable 33 on the outer wall of the threaded rod 32, the manual turntable 33 cooperates with two folding rods 35 to tighten the threaded rod 32.

[0034] A folding groove 34 is opened on the threaded rod 32. Two folding rods 35 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the folding groove 34. A damper II 36 is fixedly connected to the side where the two folding rods 35 are close to each other.

[0035] During the insertion of the threaded rod 32, the two folding rods 35 at the top of the threaded rod 32 can approach each other and compress the damper II 36 and spring II 37 inside.
