[0041] In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the fact that ordinary technicians in this field can implement it. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by this utility model.
[0042] like Figures 1 to 5 The figure shows a slide structure of a rock drilling vehicle disclosed in this embodiment (hereinafter referred to as "slide"), which mainly includes a slide 1 and a support 2. The bottom of the slide 1 is provided with a sliding structure that can cooperate with the track, so that the slide can slide back and forth on the frame of the rock drilling vehicle, and the support 2 is fixed on the top of the slide 1.
[0043] Specifically, the support 2 is a hollow box structure, which mainly includes a front sealing plate 201, a rear sealing plate 202 and two side panels 203. The bottom of the front sealing plate 201 and the bottom of the rear sealing plate 202 are respectively welded and fixed to the top of the slide 1. The top of the front sealing plate 201 and the top of the rear sealing plate 202 can be directly welded and fixed. In this case, the top of the rear sealing plate 202 can be set as an arc plate or a bent plate structure. Alternatively, an upper sealing plate 204 can be added to the support 2, that is, the upper sealing plate 204 is set at the top of the front sealing plate 201 and connected to the end of the rear sealing plate 202. In this case, the top of the rear sealing plate 202 can also be set as an arc plate or a bent plate structure, so that the hydraulic pipeline can be smoothly transitioned in the future, avoiding the bending of the pipeline, facilitating installation, and also improving the appearance of the product. The two side panels 203 are directly welded to both sides of the front cover plate 201 and the rear cover plate 202. Of course, in a specific application process, the side panels 203 and the rear cover plate 202 can also be directly formed into one piece.
[0044] A boom assembly station is provided on the outer wall of the front cover 201 for assembling the boom and enabling pitch and roll installation of the boom. In this embodiment, the boom assembly station includes a first lug plate 3, a second lug plate 4, a third lug plate 5, and a fourth lug plate 6. The first lug plate 3 and the second lug plate 4 are provided on the upper cover 204, the third lug plate 5 is provided on the outer wall of the front cover 201 and is located directly below the first lug plate 3, and the fourth lug plate 6 is provided on the outer wall of the front cover 201 and is located directly below the second lug plate 4. The first lug plate 3 and the third lug plate 5 together constitute the hinge point of the upper swing hinge seat of the boom, and the second lug plate 4 and the fourth lug plate 6 together constitute the hinge point of the upper roll hinge seat of the boom. The swing articulated seat is connected to the boom and the first end of the boom pitch cylinder, the side swing articulated seat is connected to the first end of the boom side swing cylinder, the second end of the boom pitch cylinder and the second end of the boom side swing cylinder are both connected to the boom, respectively controlling the boom pitch and side swing, thereby realizing the boom pitch and side swing installation.
[0045] During implementation, the number of boom assembly stations on the front cover 201 can be one or more. In this embodiment, there are two boom assembly stations on the front cover 201, each of which can perform both pitch and roll installation of a group of booms. By arranging multiple boom assembly stations on the slide 1, multiple booms can be assembled centrally on a single slide, thereby reducing the overall length and volume of the trolley, making it more adaptable to various cross-sections and achieving higher utilization efficiency.
[0046] Furthermore, the first and / or second lug plates 3 and 4 can be directly welded to the upper sealing plate 204, or hinge holes can be directly provided in the upper sealing plate 204, allowing a portion of the upper sealing plate 204 to serve as the first and / or second lug plates 3 and 4. Of course, if the support 2 itself does not include the upper sealing plate 204, that is, if the top of the front sealing plate 201 and the top of the rear sealing plate 202 are directly welded and fixed, the first and second lug plates 3 and 4 can be directly welded to the outer wall of the front sealing plate 201. If an upper sealing plate 204 is selected, it can be configured as a multi-segmented structure or a single-plate structure.
[0047] refer to Figure 1 At least one multi-way valve bracket 7 is welded to the inner wall of the front sealing plate 201, and a relatively large opening 205 is formed in the rear sealing plate 202 at the position corresponding to the multi-way valve bracket 7. During assembly, hydraulic components such as the multi-way valve can be assembled on the multi-way valve bracket 7, that is, the multi-way valve and other hydraulic components are installed inside the slide. This not only utilizes the internal box of the slide, greatly saving the installation space of the hydraulic components and optimizing the overall spatial layout of the equipment, but also prevents damage to the hydraulic valve group and its bracket caused by external factors such as falling rocks, thereby improving the safety of the hydraulic components.
[0048] As a preferred embodiment, the slide also includes a drag chain mounting bracket 8, a hydraulic pipeline mounting plate 9, and a pipeline limiting bracket 10. The drag chain mounting bracket 8 is located on the slide 1 or the rear cover 202 near the bottom edge of the opening 205 for installing the drag chain of the hydraulic pipeline; the hydraulic pipeline mounting plate 9 is located on the rear cover 202 near the top edge of the opening 205 for arranging the hydraulic pipelines led out from the multi-way valve bracket 7; the pipeline limiting bracket 10 is located on the top of the support 2 for limiting and adjusting the hydraulic pipelines led out from the hydraulic pipeline mounting plate 9. Figure 2 The hydraulic pipeline is connected to the multi-way valve on the multi-way valve bracket 7 inside the slide through the drag chain from the drag chain mounting bracket 8 on the rear side of the slide, and then led out from the multi-way valve, fixed and sorted by the hydraulic pipeline mounting plate 9, and finally the hydraulic pipeline goes to the top of the slide, and is limited and adjusted by the pipeline limit bracket 10, and finally the hydraulic pipeline is distributed to other hydraulic movable parts.
[0049] Further preferably, the pipeline limiting bracket 10 is an arc-shaped plate or a folded plate with one end connected to the support 2 and the other end extending toward the hydraulic pipeline mounting plate 9, so that the pipeline limiting bracket 10 and the rear sealing plate 202 are connected at an angle transition to allow the hydraulic pipeline to transition smoothly and avoid bending.
[0050] It is worth noting that although the number of the drag chain mounting bracket 8, hydraulic pipeline mounting plate 9 and pipeline limiting bracket 10 shown in the figure in this embodiment is two, they can be adjusted according to actual needs in specific applications, for example, only one drag chain mounting bracket 8 with a larger width is set.
[0051] refer to Figures 3 to 5 A first longitudinal rib 11 is connected between the upper sealing plate 204 and the third ear plate 5, a second longitudinal rib 12 is connected between the third ear plate 5, the front sealing plate 201, and the slide 1, and a third longitudinal rib 13 is connected between the front sealing plate 201 and the rear sealing plate 202. The slide 1 is a box-shaped structure with an open bottom, and a fourth longitudinal rib 14 is provided inside the slide 1. The first longitudinal rib 11, the second longitudinal rib 12, the third longitudinal rib 13, and the fourth longitudinal rib 14 are coplanar. The number of the first longitudinal rib 11, the second longitudinal rib 12, the third longitudinal rib 13, and the fourth longitudinal rib 14 is the same as the number of the first ear plates 3, and they correspond one to one, that is, the corresponding first longitudinal rib 11, the second longitudinal rib 12, the third longitudinal rib 13, and the fourth longitudinal rib 14 are located in the same longitudinal plane. In addition, a fifth longitudinal rib 15 is connected between the outer wall of the front sealing plate 201 and the slide 1, and a seventh longitudinal rib 17 is connected between the inner wall of the front sealing plate 201 and the slide 1. A sixth longitudinal rib 16 and an eighth longitudinal rib 18 are provided inside the slide 1. The fifth longitudinal rib 15 and the sixth longitudinal rib 16 are coplanar, and the seventh longitudinal rib 17 and the eighth longitudinal rib 18 are coplanar. The multi-way valve bracket can also serve as the seventh longitudinal rib. Similarly, the fifth longitudinal rib 15 and the sixth longitudinal rib 16 are the same in number and correspond one-to-one, the seventh longitudinal rib 17 and the eighth longitudinal rib 18 are the same in number and correspond one-to-one, the corresponding fifth longitudinal rib 15 and the sixth longitudinal rib 16 are located in the same longitudinal plane, and the corresponding seventh longitudinal rib 17 and the eighth longitudinal rib 18 are located in the same longitudinal plane. Furthermore, the connection position of the side panel 203 on the support 2 on the slide 1 is aligned with the slide side panel 101 on the same side of the slide 1. The front cover 201 and the rear cover 202 are also connected by a ninth longitudinal rib 23, and the ninth longitudinal rib 23 corresponds to the middle position of the fourth ear plate 6. By providing a series of longitudinally aligned longitudinal ribs, the transmission of longitudinal force of the slide 1 is facilitated, and the overall structure of the slide 1 is strengthened.
[0052] Further preferably, the first transverse rib 19 and the second transverse rib 20 are connected between the front sealing plate 201 and the rear sealing plate 202, the first transverse rib 19 is coplanar with the third ear plate 5, and the second transverse rib 20 is coplanar with the fourth ear plate 6, which is beneficial to the transmission of the lateral force of the slide 1 and significantly improves the overall structure of the slide 1.
[0053] In a specific implementation process, the sliding structure includes two chain mounting plates 21 arranged in the slide and capable of driving the slide to move, and a chain reinforcement rib 22 is connected between the two chain mounting plates 21 .
[0054] It is worth noting that between the front sealing plate 201 and the rear sealing plate 202, there are the third longitudinal rib 13, the seventh longitudinal rib 17, the first transverse rib 19, the ninth longitudinal rib 23, the second transverse rib 20, and the multi-way valve bracket 7. The third longitudinal rib 13, the seventh longitudinal rib 17, and the multi-way valve bracket 7 are all distributed vertically, while the first transverse rib 19 and the second transverse rib 20 are distributed horizontally. The upper and lower ends of the third longitudinal rib 13, the seventh longitudinal rib 17, and the multi-way valve bracket 7 can be directly welded to the slide 1 or welded to one of the first transverse rib 19 and the second transverse rib 20. The left and right ends of the first transverse rib 19 and the second transverse rib 20 can be welded to the side panel 203 or welded to one of the third longitudinal rib 13, the seventh longitudinal rib 17, and the multi-way valve bracket 7.
[0055] Similarly, the slide 1 has a fourth longitudinal rib 14, a sixth longitudinal rib 16, an eighth longitudinal rib 18, and a chain mounting plate 21 inside. The side ends of the fourth longitudinal rib 14, the sixth longitudinal rib 16, the eighth longitudinal rib 18, and the chain mounting plate 21 can be welded to the side plate of the slide 1, or some or all of the fourth longitudinal rib 14, the sixth longitudinal rib 16, the eighth longitudinal rib 18 can be directly welded to the chain mounting plate 21. Preferably, the slide 1 as a whole is similar to a bridge structure, so the fourth longitudinal rib 14, the sixth longitudinal rib 16, and the eighth longitudinal rib 18 are mainly concentrated on both sides of the slide 1 and the corresponding support installation positions on the slide 1.
[0056] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention.
