[0035] In the description of this utility model, "a plurality" means more than two. If there is a description of "first" or "second", it is only used for the purpose of distinguishing technical features and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance, implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features, or implicitly indicating the order of the indicated technical features.

[0036] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, and connecting should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.

[0037] Reference Figures 1 to 4The arm support device of the first embodiment of the present invention includes a mounting seat 100 and a support rod 200, and the support rod 200 is hinged to the mounting seat 100; the support rod 200 has a first support position and a second support position, and the support rod 200 rotates around the hinge with the mounting seat 100 to realize switching between the first support position and the second support position; the support rod 200 is installed with a first support structure 210 and a second support structure 220, the opening of the first support structure 210 is facing the radial direction of the support rod 200, and the opening of the second support structure 220 is facing the axial direction of the support rod 200; when the support rod 200 is in the first support position, the opening of the first support structure 210 is facing upward for placing the arm; when the support rod 200 is in the second support position, the opening of the second support structure 220 is facing upward for placing the arm.

[0038] Since the opening of the first support structure 210 is oriented in the radial direction of the support rod 200, when the support rod 200 is in the first position, the support rod 200 is in a horizontal state; when the boom is placed on the first support structure 210, the boom is in a lower position, which is suitable for Figure 6 The aerial work vehicle shown; accordingly, since the opening direction of the second support rod 200 is the axial direction of the support rod 200, when the support rod 200 is in the second position, the support rod 200 is in a vertical state; when the boom is placed on the second support structure 220, the boom is in a higher position, which is suitable for Figure 5 The branch pruning vehicle shown. The boom support device of the present embodiment of the utility model hinges the support rod 200 with the mounting base 100 and provides a first support structure 210 and a second support structure 220 on the support rod 200. This allows the support rod 200 to support the boom via the first support structure 210 when in the first support position, and to support the boom via the second support structure 220 when in the second support position. This allows the boom to be adapted to different retracting postures of the work vehicle without the need for external assistance, thereby reducing the difficulty of operation and improving work efficiency. The boom support device of this embodiment has a simple structure and low manufacturing cost, and is convenient for retrofitting the boom support of existing work vehicles.

[0039] In the embodiment of the present invention, the first support structure 210 includes a first substrate 211, both ends of the first substrate 211 are bent away from the support rod 200 to form two first bending portions 212, and the middle portion of the first substrate 211 is connected to the support rod 200. Figure 2As shown, both ends of the length direction of the first substrate 211 are bent in the direction away from the support rod 200, thereby forming a groove between the two first bending portions 212, and the opening of the groove is facing away from the support rod 200; the first substrate 211 is provided with two first bending portions 212 to better accommodate the arm stand; when the arm stand is accommodated, the arm stand can gradually slide along the first bending portion 212 to the middle position of the first substrate 211, so that the arm stand and the first substrate 211 have sufficient contact area, ensuring that the arm stand can obtain sufficient support while reducing the pressure on the first substrate 211, thereby extending the service life of the first support structure 210; at the same time, the two first bending portions 212 can also protect the arm stand, so that the arm stand is more stable when placed on the first support structure 210.

[0040] Further, refer to Figure 2 As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, the first support structure 210 further includes a first main plate 213 and two first side plates 214. The first main plate 213 is mounted in the middle of the first base plate 211, and the two first side plates 214 are mounted on the two first bends 212, respectively. Specifically, the first main plate 213 is preferably detachably connected to the first base plate 211 via fasteners such as bolts, and the first side plates 214 are also preferably detachably connected to the first bends 212 via fasteners such as bolts. Mounting the first main plate 213 and first side plates 214 on the first base plate 211 prevents direct contact between the first base plate 211 and the arm, which could damage the first base plate 211. The detachable connection between the first main plate 213 and first side plates 214 and the first base plate 211 facilitates their separate replacement, thereby reducing maintenance costs. The bolted connection between the first main plate 213 and first side plates 214 and the first base plate 211 utilizes a mature connection technology with low cost and good reliability.

[0041] In the embodiment of the present invention, the second support structure 220 is substantially consistent with the first support structure 210 in shape and size, so that the first support structure 210 and the second support structure 220 can be produced by sharing a set of templates, thereby reducing production costs.
