[0002] There are many types of hydraulic handles for excavators. One type of hydraulic handle is equipped with an electronically controlled dial for controlling and adjusting the operation of accessories. When the excavator is equipped with different accessories, the dial handle needs to be locked in a specified position and not return to the center position and maintained to control the continuous operation of the accessories. When the accessories are not in use or switched, the dial will return to the center position from the previous position. The ordinary handle uses the operator's fingers to continuously fix the dial position to maintain the locked position. The operator's hands are heavily loaded and unstable, making it impossible to lock the dial in the specified position.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. These embodiments are intended only to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. It should also be understood that after reading the teachings of the present invention, those skilled in the art may make various changes or modifications to the present invention, and that these equivalent forms also fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
[0021] Example 1: See Figures 1 to 4 This is the structure view, internal structure view, Figure 2 A partial enlarged view at point A in the middle, a structural view of the sliding bracket 5, a thumbwheel 2 handle locking device is arranged on the hydraulic handle 1, a movable cover plate 17 is provided on the end face of the hydraulic handle 1, a movable groove is provided on the movable cover plate 17, a thumbwheel 2 is provided on the inner side of the movable groove, the hydraulic flow required by the excavator attachment is adjusted by adjusting the position of the thumbwheel 2, the thumbwheel 2 is slidably arranged with the internal frame of the hydraulic handle 1, the lower end edge of the thumbwheel 2 is connected to the limiting block 3, the limiting block 3 is provided with limiting pieces 4 uniformly distributed at equal intervals, and limiting grooves are formed between adjacent limiting pieces 4, and a guide section 9 is provided at the end of the limiting piece 4, the end cross section of the guide section 9 is a trapezoidal structure, and the guide section 9 is used to guide the possible collision movement between the insert and the limiting piece 4, so that the insert is easier to insert into the limiting groove, and the thumbwheel 2 can be locked by inserting the insert into the limiting groove.
[0022] An adjustment slot 18 is provided in the middle of the movable cover 17, and a sliding bracket 5 is provided below the adjustment slot 18 and on the inner side wall of the movable cover 17. A slide slot 15 is provided at the bottom of the side walls on both sides of the sliding bracket 5. An inclined guide surface 16 is provided between the slide slot 15 and the end surface of the side wall. A bottom plate 6 is provided on the inner side of the sliding bracket 5 for sliding. The bottom plate 6 is slidably provided on the inner side of the slide slot 15. The upper end of the bottom plate 6 is connected to the slider 7. The end of the slider 7 is provided with an insert, which is plugged into the limit block 3. The middle of the slider 7 A socket 14 is provided on the top, and a push rod 8 is inserted into the inner side of the socket 14. The end of the push rod 8 is connected to the anti-slip cap 10. The bottom plate 6 does not contact the limiting piece 4 when the limiting piece 4 is plugged into the plug. The limiting block 3 and the limiting piece 4 move with the movement of the dial wheel 2. When the dial wheel 2 moves to the position where it needs to hover, the push rod 8 and the anti-slip cap 10 are manually pushed upward to drive the slider 7 and the plug connected to the push rod 8 to move upward and insert the plug into the limiting groove relative to the position to lock the dial wheel 2.
[0023] In order to assist in locking the position of the dial wheel 2, a structure for locking the position of the slider 7 is further provided. A first positioning hole 12 and a second positioning hole 11 are provided on the bottom side wall of the sliding bracket 5. When the end of the push rod 8 is plugged into the first positioning hole 12, the tail of the slider 7 contacts the end side wall of the sliding bracket 5. When the end of the push rod 8 is plugged into the second positioning hole 11, the insert and the limit plate 4 are in a plug-in fit state.
[0024] The push rod 8 is plug-in-fitted to the first positioning hole 12 and the second positioning hole 11. If you want to change the position of the slider 7, you need to pull out the push rod 8 to disengage the push rod 8 from the sliding bracket 5. In order to reduce the probability of the push rod 8 disengaging from the slider 7 during the insertion and removal process, a mounting groove is provided on the outer end face of the push rod 8, and a silicone sleeve 13 is provided on the inner side of the mounting groove. The friction between the silicone sleeve 13 and the inner wall of the socket 14 on the slider 7 during the insertion and removal of the push rod 8 serves as a damping force, making the process of pulling out the push rod 8 more controllable.
[0025] The utility model provides a manually slidable slider 7 on the inner side of the hydraulic handle 1. When needed, the push rod 8 is pushed to drive the insert piece to insert into the limit piece 4 provided on the dial wheel 2, preventing the dial wheel 2 from returning to its original position, thereby realizing the function of locking the dial wheel 2 at a specified position without the hand, reducing the hand load and maintaining a stable locking state.
