Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of support technology, and in particular to a support. Background Technology

[0002] The excavator water tank is an important component of the excavator engine cooling system. Its main function is to absorb and remove heat from the engine and hydraulic oil tank to ensure the normal operation of the excavator. Appropriate fixing brackets are required when assembling and fixing the water tank.

[0003] Traditional water tank brackets are typically constructed of angle steel. During installation, the bracket plate is attached to the surface of the water tank, with the two positioning holes on the bracket plate engaging with the two protrusions on the water tank surface. Bolts are then used to secure the bracket plate to the excavator body, thus limiting and fixing the water tank. However, in actual use, it has been found that while the bracket plate effectively limits and stabilizes the water tank, there is a lack of corresponding connection between the bracket plate and the two sides of the water tank. This affects the stability of the water tank and reduces the effectiveness and functionality of the bracket plate. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem this utility model aims to solve is that when the support plate stabilizes the water tank, the lack of a corresponding connection between the support plate and both sides of the water tank affects the stability of the water tank and reduces the effectiveness and functionality of the support plate.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: a bracket, including a bracket plate, two screw holes are opened on the surface of the bracket plate, positioning holes are opened on both sides of the surface of the bracket plate, a reinforcing device is provided on the surface of the bracket plate, the reinforcing device includes a slide rail, two bolts are inserted through the inner wall of the slide rail, the two bolts are threaded to the surface of the bracket plate respectively, two sliders are slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide rail, the surfaces of the two sliders are rotatably connected to a connecting rod, a clamping plate is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod, a screw is threaded through the surface of the connecting rod, and the screw is threaded to the inner wall of the slide rail.

[0006] The effects achieved by the above components are as follows: the limiting and fixing effect of the support plate on the water tank is further improved, making the position of the water tank more stable and less prone to abnormal shaking and displacement, and better cooling of the excavator's engine and hydraulic oil tank, thus improving the use effect and functionality of the support plate.

[0007] Preferably, one end of the screw is fixedly connected to an operating block, and the surface of the operating block is provided with a plurality of anti-slip protrusions.

[0008] The effect achieved by the above components is that the operation block makes it more convenient and faster to rotate the screw, thereby enabling the screw to fix the position of the clamp plate more quickly and improving the ease of use of the reinforcement device.

[0009] Preferably, a reinforcing pad, which is a rubber pad, is fixedly connected to the side surface of the clamping plate near the support plate.

[0010] The effect achieved by the above components is that, by setting the reinforcing pad, the friction is further increased when the clamping plate contacts and presses against the surface of the water tank, thereby further improving the limiting and stabilizing effect of the support plate on the water tank.

[0011] Preferably, springs are fixedly connected to the inner walls of the slide rails on their respective sides that are close to each other, and the other end of the springs is fixedly connected to the surface of the slider.

[0012] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: when the clamp plate rotates to the side of the water tank under the drive of the connecting rod, the slider will slide under the elastic force of the spring, so that the clamp plate quickly contacts the surface of the water tank, thereby enabling the screw to quickly connect with the slide rail and fix the position of the clamp plate.

[0013] Preferably, a nut is threaded onto the arc surface of the screw, and the nut abuts against the surface of the connecting rod.

[0014] The effect achieved by the above components is that, by setting the nut, the screw is not easy to rotate when it is installed on the inner wall of the slide rail, which would cause the connection with the slide rail to loosen, thus ensuring the stable installation and fixing of the clamp.

[0015] Preferably, a stabilizing device is provided on the surface of the support plate at the position of the positioning hole. The stabilizing device includes a mounting block, which is fixedly connected to the surface of the support plate. A mounting rod is rotatably connected through the surface of the mounting block. Threads are respectively opened on the arc surfaces at both ends of the mounting rod. Connecting plates are threadedly connected to the arc surfaces at both ends of the mounting rod. An arc-shaped plate is fixedly connected to one side surface of the connecting plate, and the arc-shaped plate is slidably connected to the surface of the support plate.

[0016] The effect achieved by the above components is that the position of the water tank will be further stabilized, thereby better ensuring the stable connection between the positioning hole and the water tank components, and thus ensuring the stable use of the water tank.

[0017] Preferably, a limiting groove is formed on one side surface of the connecting plate, and a limiting rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove. The limiting rod is fixedly connected to the surface of the support plate.

[0018] The effect achieved by the above components is that, through the sliding arrangement of the limiting rod and the limiting groove, the position of the arc plate is better guaranteed when the mounting rod rotates to adjust the position of the arc plate, making it less prone to displacement, and further improving the performance of the stabilizing device.

[0019] Preferably, a stabilizing plate is rotatably connected through the arc surface of one end of the mounting rod, and the stabilizing plate is fixedly connected to the surface of the support plate.

[0020] The effect achieved by the above components is that the installation rod is more stable when rotating due to the setting of the stabilizing plate, and is less prone to shaking, thereby better limiting the water tank.

[0021] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0022] The bracket plate of this utility model further improves the limiting and fixing effect of the water tank, making the position of the water tank more stable and less prone to abnormal shaking and displacement. It also better cools down the excavator's engine and hydraulic oil tank, improving the use effect and functionality of the bracket plate. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the present invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the present invention.

[0030] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected" or "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, it can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0031] Figure 1 and Figure 2 The lightweight water tank bracket shown includes a bracket plate 1. Two screw holes 2 are formed on the surface of the bracket plate 1. Positioning holes 3 are formed on both sides of the surface of the bracket plate 1. A reinforcing device 4 is provided on the surface of the bracket plate 1. A stabilizing device 5 is provided on the surface of the bracket plate 1 at the position of the positioning hole 3.

[0032] Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The reinforcement device 4 shown includes a slide rail 41. Two bolts 42 are inserted through the inner wall of the slide rail 41. The two bolts 42 are threadedly connected to the surface of the support plate 1. Two sliders 43 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide rail 41. Connecting rods 45 are rotatably connected to the surfaces of the two sliders 43. A clamping plate 46 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 45. A screw 47 is threadedly connected to the surface of the connecting rod 45. The screw 47 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the slide rail 41. When the water tank on the excavator is installed, the water tank is first placed in the corresponding assembly slot. Then, the support plate 1 is attached to the surface of the water tank, so that the two positioning holes 3 on the surface of the water tank are engaged with the two protrusions on the surface of the water tank. Then, the support plate 1 is fixed to the excavator by two screws and screw holes 2. The surface of the excavator is then traversed, and two sliders 43 on the inner wall of the sliding rail 41 are traversed. By rotating the connecting rod 45 on the slider 43, the rotating shaft 44 fixedly connected to the connecting rod 45 rotates on the surface of the slider 43 until the clamping plate 46 fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 45 contacts and is pressed against the side surface of the water tank. Then, the screw 47 is threaded through the surface of the connecting rod 45 until the screw 47 is threaded into the inner wall of the sliding rail 41, thus fixing the position of the connecting rod 45 and the clamping plate 46. At this time, the limiting and fixing effect of the support plate 1 on the water tank is further improved, making the position of the water tank more stable and less prone to abnormal shaking and displacement. This better cools the excavator's engine and hydraulic oil tank, improving the use effect and functionality of the support plate 1.

[0033] Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3One end of the screw 47 shown is fixedly connected to an operating block 48. The surface of the operating block 48 is provided with several anti-slip protrusions. The operation block 48 makes it easier and faster to rotate the screw 47, thereby allowing the screw 47 to fix the position of the clamping plate 46 more quickly and improving the ease of use of the reinforcement device 4. A reinforcement pad 410 is fixedly connected to the side of the clamping plate 46 near the support plate 1. The reinforcement pad 410 is a rubber pad. The reinforcement pad 410 further increases the friction when the clamping plate 46 contacts and presses against the surface of the water tank, thereby further improving the limiting and stabilizing effect of the support plate 1 on the water tank.

[0034] Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 Springs 49 are fixedly connected to the inner walls of the slide rails 41 on their respective sides. The other end of the springs 49 is fixedly connected to the surface of the slider 43. With the springs 49, when the clamping plate 46 rotates to the side of the water tank under the drive of the connecting rod 45, the slider 43 will slide under the elastic force of the springs 49, so that the clamping plate 46 quickly contacts the surface of the water tank. This allows the screw 47 to quickly connect with the slide rail 41, thus fixing the position of the clamping plate 46. A nut 411 is threadedly connected to the arc surface of the screw 47. The nut 411 abuts against the surface of the connecting rod 45. With the nut 411, the screw 47 is not easy to rotate when it is installed on the inner wall of the slide rail 41, which would cause the connection with the slide rail 41 to loosen, thus ensuring the stable installation and fixing of the clamping plate 46.

[0035] Figure 1 and Figure 4 The stabilizing device 5 shown includes a mounting block 51, which is fixedly connected to the surface of the support plate 1. A mounting rod 52 is rotatably connected through the surface of the mounting block 51. Threads are respectively opened on the arc surfaces at both ends of the mounting rod 52, and connecting plates 53 are respectively threaded onto the arc surfaces at both ends of the mounting rod 52. An arc plate 54 is fixedly connected to one side surface of the connecting plate 53, and the arc plate 54 is slidably connected to the surface of the support plate 1. When the support plate 1 is installed on the excavator's water tank, and the water tank position is reinforced by the reinforcing device 4, the mounting rods 52 on the surfaces of the two mounting blocks 51 on the surface of the support plate 1 are rotated. Through the rotation of the mounting rods 52, the two connecting plates 53 on the arc surfaces of the mounting rods 52 are driven to move closer to each other, thereby driving the arc plates 54 fixedly connected to the connecting plates 53 to move closer to each other until the two arc plates 54 are clamped and fixed on the protrusions on the surface of the water tank. At this time, the position of the water tank will be further stabilized, thereby better ensuring the stable connection between the positioning hole 3 and the water tank components, thus ensuring the stable use of the water tank.

[0036] Figure 1 and Figure 4A limiting groove 56 is provided on one side surface of the connecting plate 53 shown. A limiting rod 55 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove 56. The limiting rod 55 is fixedly connected to the surface of the bracket plate 1. Through the sliding arrangement of the limiting rod 55 and the limiting groove 56, the position of the arc plate 54 is better guaranteed when the mounting rod 52 rotates to adjust the position of the arc plate 54, and it is not easy to deviate. This further improves the performance of the stabilizing device 5. A stabilizing plate 57 is rotatably connected through the arc surface of one end of the mounting rod 52. The stabilizing plate 57 is fixedly connected to the surface of the bracket plate 1. Through the setting of the stabilizing plate 57, the mounting rod 52 is more stable when rotating and is not easy to shake, thereby better limiting the water tank.

[0037] Working principle: When installing the water tank on the excavator, first place the water tank in the corresponding assembly slot, then attach the bracket plate 1 to the surface of the water tank, so that the two positioning holes 3 on the surface of the water tank are engaged with the two protrusions on the surface of the water tank. Then, fix the bracket plate 1 to the surface of the excavator with two screws and screw holes 2. Then, slide the two sliders 43 on the inner wall of the slide rail 41. By rotating the connecting rod 45 on the slider 43, the rotating shaft 44 fixedly connected to the connecting rod 45 rotates on the surface of the slider 43 until the clamping plate 46 fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 45 contacts and presses against the side surface of the water tank. Then, thread the screw 47 through the surface of the connecting rod 45 until the screw 47 is threaded into the inner wall of the slide rail 41, fixing the position of the connecting rod 45 and the clamping plate 46. At this time, the limiting and fixing effect of the bracket plate 1 on the water tank is further improved, making the position of the water tank more stable and less prone to abnormal shaking and displacement. This better cools down the excavator's engine and hydraulic oil tank, improving the use effect and functionality of the bracket plate 1.

[0038] When the bracket plate 1 is installed on the excavator's water tank and the water tank position is reinforced by the reinforcement device 4, the mounting rods 52 on the surfaces of the two mounting blocks 51 on the surface of the bracket plate 1 are rotated. The rotation of the mounting rods 52 causes the two connecting plates 53 on the arc surface of the mounting rods 52 to move closer to each other, thereby causing the arc plates 54 fixedly connected on the connecting plates 53 to move closer to each other until the two arc plates 54 are clamped and fixed on the protrusions on the surface of the water tank. At this time, the position of the water tank will be further stabilized, thereby better ensuring the stable connection between the positioning hole 3 and the water tank components, thus ensuring the stable use of the water tank.

[0039] Based on the above-described preferred embodiments of this utility model, and through the foregoing description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of this utility model. The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
