Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of excavator technology, and more specifically to a support component for welding the boom of an excavator. Background Technology
[0002] The boom and stick refer to a working device on an excavator, also commonly called the boom and arm. Their main function is to control the digging and loading actions of the bucket. The arm connected to the frame is longer, hence the common name "boom," and its technical term is boom; the arm connected to the bucket is shorter, hence the common name "arm," and its technical term is stick. Therefore, they are commonly referred to as the boom and arm.
[0003] The boom of a backhoe excavator generally has a slight curve, which allows for better excavation of soil below the machine's stopping surface. A front shovel excavator, on the other hand, typically has a straight boom, which allows for better excavation of soil above the stopping surface. Its structure is generally box-type, with top and bottom cover plates, two side wall plates, a boom seat at the frame connection, a boom middle sleeve at the connection to the boom cylinder rod, a cylinder lug at the connection to the cylinder head, and a boom hairpin at the connection to the boom arm.
[0004] When welding the boom, assembly fixtures are needed to clamp the base plate and the two side plates before welding. After welding the internal structure, the top plate is then installed and welded. However, the fixtures currently used usually use cylinders for fixing and clamping, which requires adjusting the clamping torque. Also, clamping and loosening take a certain amount of time. Utility Model Content
[0005] One advantage of this invention is that it provides a support component for welding excavator booms. Instead of using common cylinder clamping fixtures, it uses fixed-position rollers for positioning and clamping. No secondary positioning or clamping and loosening is required. Positioning and clamping can be completed by simply placing the side plate under the rollers, saving time and effort.
[0006] To achieve at least one of the above advantages of this utility model, this utility model provides a support assembly for welding the boom of an excavator, including a base plate. A support assembly, a positioning assembly, and a clamping assembly are fixedly arranged on the upper part of the base plate. The clamping assembly includes a plurality of clamping columns symmetrically fixedly arranged on the upper part of the base plate. Rotatable rollers are fixedly arranged at the upper ends of the clamping columns, and the distance between the corresponding rollers is equal to the fixed distance between the side plates of the boom.
[0007] According to one embodiment of the present invention, a first pressing column is provided at both ends of the base plate, a second pressing column is provided in the middle of the base plate, and rollers are provided at the upper ends of both the first pressing column and the second pressing column.
[0008] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the positioning component includes a first positioner disposed near the first clamping post and a second positioner disposed near the second clamping post.
[0009] According to one embodiment of the present invention, both the first positioner and the second positioner are pneumatic piston structures.
[0010] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the support assembly includes a first support base and two second support bases, the two second support bases being located on both sides of the first support base and both being lower than the first support base.
[0011] According to one embodiment of the present invention, both the first support base and the second support base are provided with reinforcing ribs on their sides. Attached Figure Description
