Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of mining machinery, in particular to a dryer bracket and a dump truck with the dryer bracket. Background Art
[0002] During vehicle operation, an air compressor is required to control the vehicle's braking and provide a certain degree of shock absorption. However, due to the presence of water vapor in the air, especially after being compressed by the vehicle's air compressor, this water vapor can enter the air reservoir as liquid water, thereby corroding the air reservoir and various valve bodies. Therefore, a dryer is required to remove this moisture. Most current automotive air compressor dryers use a canister dryer. A canister is a filtering device connected between the air compressor and the air reservoir. It absorbs moisture from the compressed air discharged from the air compressor, keeping the discharged compressed air dry and protecting other vehicle components.
[0003] During installation, a torque wrench is typically used to ensure even distribution of bolt tightening force and prevent loosening on the dryer brackets currently used on most domestic dump trucks. However, in practice, this installation method requires the use of bent joints, which can cause pressure loss. This not only increases fluid resistance and reduces system efficiency, but can also cause wear and fatigue in the pipeline, shortening its service life. Furthermore, due to the complex installation structure, maintenance and overhaul are also relatively inconvenient, increasing the system's operating costs and difficulty, making it difficult to meet actual usage requirements and affecting the overall performance and service life of the equipment. To overcome these shortcomings, the bracket design needs to be optimized to reduce piping bends and improve the overall efficiency and reliability of the system. Utility Model Content

The reinforcement plate 2 is arranged in the middle position of the bracket body 1 and plays a key supporting and reinforcing role in the bracket structure. Through this reasonable design and arrangement, the reinforcement plate 2 can effectively disperse and transfer stress, avoid stress concentration, and ensure its stability and reliability under various stress conditions. In a further embodiment, the angle formed between the first end plate 12 and the second end plate 13 and the main body is preferably 90°.
[0025] like Figure 3 As shown, a first assembly hole 121 is provided on the first end plate 12, and the dryer bracket further includes a first connecting member 122, which passes through the first assembly hole 121 to fix the first end plate 12 to the frame 4; at the same time, a second assembly hole 131 is provided on the second end plate 13, and the dryer bracket further includes a second connecting member 132, which passes through the second assembly hole 131 to fix the second end plate 13 to the dryer 3. The dryer bracket connects the dryer 3 to the bracket body 1 through the second connecting member 132, which not only enables the dryer 3 to be firmly connected to the bracket, but also provides additional fastening force, effectively reducing the impact of the vibration and impact of the dump truck on the connection part, and extending the service life of the overall structure. In a further embodiment, the first connecting member 122 is preferably a rivet, and the second connecting member 132 is preferably a combination connector of a butterfly spring washer and a bolt.
[0026] In summary, the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention provides a dryer bracket, including a bracket body 1 and a reinforcing plate 2 connected to the bracket body 1. The bracket body 1 includes a main board 11 and a first end plate 12 and a second end plate 13 connected to both ends of the main board 11. The two ends of the reinforcing plate 2 are connected to the first end plate 12 and the second end plate 13 respectively. One side of the reinforcing plate 2 is connected to the main board 11. The reinforcing plate 2 is arranged in the middle position of the bracket body 1 and plays a key supporting and reinforcing role in the bracket structure. Through this arrangement, the reinforcing plate 2 can effectively disperse and transfer stress, avoid stress concentration, and ensure its stability and reliability under various stress states. At the same time, a first assembly hole 121 is provided on the first end plate 12, and a second assembly hole 131 is provided on the second end plate 13. The dryer bracket also includes a first connecting piece 122 and a second connecting piece 132. The first connecting piece 122 passes through the first assembly hole 121 to fix the first end plate 12 to the vehicle frame 4, and the second connecting piece 132 passes through the second assembly hole 131 to fix the second end plate 13 to the dryer 3. The dryer bracket connects the dryer 3 to the bracket body 1 through the second connecting piece 132, which not only ensures that the dryer 3 is firmly connected to the bracket, but also provides additional fastening force, effectively reducing the impact of the vibration and impact of the dump truck on the connection parts, and extending the service life of the overall structure. In addition, the mounting bracket has a simple structure, more reliable force balance, flexible and convenient disassembly and assembly, low cost, and is convenient for later maintenance of parts.
[0027] like Figure 4 As shown, another embodiment of the present invention provides a dump truck, comprising a vehicle frame 4, an air compressor 5, a dryer 3, and the aforementioned dryer bracket. The dryer bracket is fixed to the vehicle frame 4 via a first connector 122, and the dryer 3 is fixed to the dryer bracket via a second connector 132. The dryer 3 includes a tank 32 and a pipe 31. The tank 32 is filled with a desiccant for separating oil and water from gas and filtering it. The pipe 31 communicates with the tank 32 and is used to connect the tank 32 and the air compressor 5. The length of the first end plate 12 of the dryer bracket is shorter than the length of the second end plate 13. The space between the first end plate 12 and the second end plate 13 is used to avoid the pipe 31 connecting the dump truck and the dryer 3. The tank 32 is connected to the second end plate 13 via a second connector 132. The pipe 31 passes over the first end plate 12 and is inserted into the vehicle frame 4, extending to the air compressor 5 of the dump truck. Air containing water vapor from the outside enters the air compressor 5. After being compressed by the air compressor 5, the compressed air containing moisture is discharged. The compressed air containing moisture enters the dryer 3 through the pipeline 31. The desiccant in the dryer 3 removes moisture from the compressed air and discharges the dry air to other components to avoid corrosion and damage to subsequent components, thereby reducing replacement costs.
[0028] Furthermore, in order to ensure that the mounting bracket can operate for a long time and effectively under various harsh environments, the bracket body 1 and the reinforcement plate 2 are made of materials with good corrosion resistance and fatigue resistance, and undergo strict surface treatment to ensure the rigidity, strength and durability of the overall structure, thereby firmly fixing the dryer 3 on the frame 4, and ensuring that the dryer 3 remains stable and efficient during operation; and through the above-mentioned structural design, a protective effect is provided for the dryer 3, protecting it from sand and gravel during operation, ensuring that the mounting bracket can provide reliable support under different working conditions, so that the dryer 3 maintains stable operation and high efficiency.
[0029] In summary, the above-described embodiment of the present invention provides a dump truck that utilizes a simple, easily disassembled dryer bracket to secure the dryer 3 to the truck. The dryer bracket comprises a bracket body 1 and a reinforcement plate 2, which is positioned in the center of the bracket body 1. This arrangement effectively disperses and transmits stress, preventing stress concentration. Furthermore, the dryer bracket further comprises a first connector 122 and a second connector 132. The first connector 122 passes through a first assembly hole 121 to secure the dryer bracket to the vehicle frame 4, while the second connector 132 passes through a second assembly hole 131 to securely connect the dryer bracket to the dryer 3. This ensures a reliable connection between the dryer 3 and the vehicle frame 4, ensuring a stable connection and efficient operation of the dryer 3 with the dump truck's air compressor 5 during operation. This not only reduces maintenance costs but also increases the reliability and service life of the entire system. Furthermore, the structural arrangement of the dryer bracket ensures more balanced and reliable force distribution between the vehicle frame 4 and the dryer 3. Furthermore, the bracket is flexible and easy to assemble and disassemble, requiring no additional installation tools. This reduces pressure loss and further improves efficiency.
