Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of engineering machinery, in particular to a bucket for loader ditch operations. Background Art
[0002] In the daily maintenance work of highway maintenance sections that are hundreds of kilometers long, the cleaning and maintenance of highway ditches face great challenges due to the limited number of maintenance personnel, long maintenance routes and complex and changeable terrain. Especially after encountering natural disasters such as water damage and mudslides, a large amount of sediment, gravel and other debris accumulated in the ditches will cause serious blockage. At this time, maintenance personnel have to rely on traditional tools such as long-handled shovels and shovels to dredge the highway ditches for hundreds of kilometers in a purely manual manner. This operation mode not only has prominent problems such as high labor intensity and low work efficiency, but also faces technical bottlenecks such as high operating risks on steep slopes and difficulty in mechanical intervention in narrow trenches. In addition, the silt deposits after disasters are often accompanied by high water content and high viscosity, which further aggravates the difficulty of cleaning, resulting in high maintenance costs and seriously affecting the emergency recovery time of the highway drainage system. Utility Model Content

[0017] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0018] Embodiment: A bucket for ditch operation of a loader of the present invention is as follows: Figures 1-4 As shown, it includes a main bucket 1, a fixing frame 2, a connecting block 21 and a side bucket 3; the side of the main bucket 1 is connected to the fixing frame 2; the connecting block 21 is slidably connected to the fixing frame 2; the fixing frame 2 is rotatably connected to the height adjustment screw rod 22; the threaded structure of the height adjustment screw rod 22 is screwed to the connecting block 21; an adjusting motor 23 is installed on the fixing frame 2; the output shaft of the adjusting motor 23 is fixedly connected to the height adjustment screw rod 22; the side bucket 3 is welded on the connecting block 21, the width of the side bucket 3 is narrower than that of the main bucket 1, and the initial installation height of the side bucket 3 is lower than the installation height of the main bucket 1.
[0019] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the connecting block 21 is rotatably connected to a baffle 4 via a rotating shaft, and the baffle 4 is covered in the area above the side bucket 3; a torsion spring 41 is fixedly connected between the baffle 4 and the connecting block 21, and the torsion spring 41 is sleeved on the outer surface of the rotating shaft of the connecting block 21; a counterweight block 5 is provided on the baffle 4 to increase the overall weight; the counterweight block 5 is slidably connected to the baffle 4, and a rod structure is provided on the counterweight block 5; a socket structure 101 corresponding to the rod structure of the counterweight block 5 is provided on the main bucket 1.
[0020] like Figure 3 As shown, a pressure-sensitive sensor 6 for monitoring the internal full load status is installed on the top of the side bucket 3; an alarm 7 is installed on the pressure-sensitive sensor 6.
[0021] The utility model discloses a loader ditch operation bucket mainly composed of a main bucket 1 and a side bucket 3 located on the side thereof. The height of the side bucket 3 is lower than that of the main bucket 1. The side bucket 3 is installed on the engineering vehicle along with the main bucket 1. After the driver drives the engineering vehicle to the edge of the road, the driver operates the engineering vehicle to lift the main bucket 1 upward off the ground, and at the same time, the side bucket 3 located below the side of the main bucket 1 is close to the bottom of the road ditch. When the driver operates the engineering vehicle to move forward along the road, the silt in the road ditch can be shoveled and collected by the side bucket 3. At the same time, the baffle 4 is in a state of close contact with the side bucket 3 under the restriction of the torsion spring 41. The baffle 4 prevents the silt collected in the side bucket 3 from falling, thereby increasing the loading capacity of the side bucket 3 for a single shovel. As the silt in the side bucket 3 is gradually filled, the silt loaded to the top of the side bucket 3 will exert an extrusion pressure on the pressure-sensitive sensor 6. At this time, the pressure-sensitive sensor 6 sends an alarm that the silt in the side bucket 3 is full to the driver of the engineering vehicle through the alarm 7. The driver operates the engineering vehicle to lift the side bucket 3 on the main bucket 1 upward, and controls the side bucket 3 to transfer the fully loaded silt upward to the dump truck, thereby realizing the continuous dredging of highway ditches on long-distance sections by replacing manual labor with the side bucket 3, thereby greatly improving the dredging efficiency of highway ditches.
[0022] When there is a large area of collapsed mud and rocks on the road surface, the driver first gets off the vehicle and controls the adjusting motor 23 to drive the height adjustment screw rod 22 to rotate. The height adjustment screw rod 22 drives the connecting block 21 to move upward along the fixed frame 2, so that the connecting block 21 drives the side bucket 3 to rise upward to the same height as the main bucket 1, so that the side bucket 3 and the main bucket 1 together form a large bucket, and the driver then manually flips the baffle 4 backward and upward. When the counterweight block 5 on the baffle 4 is aligned with the socket structure 101 of the main bucket 1, the driver inserts the plug rod structure of the counterweight block 5 into the socket structure 101, so that the baffle 4 is fixed to the main bucket 1 in an upward flipped state by the counterweight block 5. After that, the driver returns to the engineering vehicle to control the side bucket 3 and the main bucket 1 to form a large bucket to clean up the collapsed mud and rocks on the road together, thereby increasing the loading capacity of mud and rocks shoveled in a single time and achieving faster completion of the mud and rock cleaning work on the road.
[0023] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art from this disclosure that various changes or modifications may be made to the present invention without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention as defined in the claims. Therefore, the detailed description of the disclosed embodiments is intended to illustrate rather than limit the present invention, which shall be defined by the claims.
