DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0018] The technical scheme in the utility model is further explained below in connection with the drawings and embodiments.
[0019] As Figure 1The utility model discloses a kind of automatic locking mechanisms of truck rear door, including tailstock 1, support and opening and closing arm 5, tailstock 1 is fixedly arranged on the outer wall of car hopper 11, hingedly equipped with tailgate 2 on the side wall of tailstock 1, support is fixedly connected with vehicle frame 12, support includes two support plates 3, connecting shaft 4 and fixed rod are fixedly equipped between two support plates 3, fixed rod improves the connection strength of two support plates 3, horizontal beam 13 is equipped on vehicle frame 12, the middle part of opening and closing arm 5 is rotatably connected with connecting shaft 4, the top end of opening and closing arm 5 is rotatably connected with one end of pull rod 8 by connecting piece, the bottom end of opening and closing arm 5 is abutted with horizontal beam 13, the other end of pull rod 8 is movably connected with the side of tailgate 2 towards rear door 14 by chain 6.Specifically, vehicle frame 12 is the main body mechanism of truck rear compartment, horizontal beam 13 is a part of vehicle frame 12 structure, car hopper 11 is arranged at the top of vehicle frame 12, car hopper 11 tail portion is equipped with the opening for goods to dump, the top end of rear door 14 is hinged with the top of car hopper 11 tail portion opening, tailstock 1 is arranged at the side outside car hopper, so that tailgate 2 can block rear door 14 from rotating when being vertical, rear door 14 is used to open or close the opening of car hopper 11 tail portion, after rear door 14 is opened, car hopper 11 can be tilted under the drive of relevant driving device to dump the goods in car hopper 11, each component is the conventional structure of self-unloading truck (dump truck), when car hopper 11 is in horizontal state, the horizontal height of the top of tailgate 2 is higher than the horizontal height of the bottom of rear door 14, to reach the effect of limiting the rotation of rear door 14, when working, when car hopper 11 rotates from horizontal state to inclined state to dump goods, tailgate 2 makes it rotate around hinged end under its own weight, when tailgate 2 rotates, it pulls chain 6, the through slot is opened on car hopper 11 for chain 6 to pass through car hopper 11 and be connected to tailgate 2, so that chain 6 pulls pull rod 8 to drive opening and closing arm 5 to rotate, at this time, tailgate 2 no longer limits rear door 14, so that rear door 14 can rotate around its hinged end, so as to let the goods in car hopper 11 dump, after the goods are dumped, car hopper 11 rotates to horizontal state again, in this process, car hopper 11 moves towards the direction of being close to the top of vehicle frame 12, the bottom of opening and closing arm 5 is limited by horizontal beam 13 abutted, so that opening and closing arm 5 rotates, so as to let pull rod 8 pull chain 6, chain 6 replaces a part of pull rod 8, plays a time-delay role, chain 6 pulls tailgate 2 to rotate around its hinged end, so that tailgate 2 pushes rear door 14 to close in place, so as to avoid the problem that rear door 14 cannot be completely closed.
[0020] Further, opening and closing arm 5 is L-shaped, the middle part of opening and closing arm 5 is rotatably connected with connecting shaft 4, one end of opening and closing arm 5 is rotatably connected with pull rod 8 through connecting piece, the other end of opening and closing arm 5 is abutted with the top of horizontal beam 13 on vehicle frame 12.In this embodiment, opening and closing arm 5 is L-shaped, so that when pull rod 8 pulls the top end of opening and closing arm 5 to rotate, the bottom end of opening and closing arm 5 rotates in arc shape, and when the end of opening and closing arm 5 is abutted with the bottom of horizontal beam 13 and rotates, the end of opening and closing arm 5 connected with pull rod 8 pulls pull rod 8 to move.
[0021] Further, the opening and closing arm 5 comprises an arc segment 501 and a straight segment 502, the straight segment 502 is integrally formed with the arc segment 501, the connecting shaft 4 is rotatably arranged at the joint of the straight segment 502 and the arc segment 501, the arc segment 501 is curved towards the straight segment 502, and the bottom of the arc segment 501 abuts against the top of the cross beam 13 of the frame 12. In the embodiment, the opening and closing arm 5 is rotatably arranged between the two supporting plates 3 through the connecting shaft 4, when the hopper 11 is tilted, the self-weight of the tail plate 2 will pull the chain 6 through the pull rod 8, and the pull rod 8 will pull the straight segment 502 of the opening and closing arm 5 to drive the whole opening and closing arm 5 to rotate, when the tilted hopper 11 changes to the horizontal state, the arc segment 501 of the opening and closing arm 5 will be squeezed to rotate while abutting against the cross beam 13 of the frame 12, so that the straight segment 502 of the opening and closing arm 5 pulls the pull rod 8 to displace, and finally pulls the tail plate 2 to limit the rear door 14.
[0022] Further, the connecting piece is a concave block 7, a rotating shaft is rotatably arranged in the groove of the concave block 7, the top end of the opening and closing arm 5 is rotatably connected with the rotating shaft, and the side of the concave block 7 away from the opening and closing arm 5 is connected with the pull rod 8. In the embodiment, the side of the concave block 7 away from the pull rod 8 has a groove, the end of the pull rod 8 away from the chain 6 is connected with the concave block 7, and the concave block 7 is connected with the top end of the opening and closing arm 5 through the rotating shaft in the groove, so that the pull rod 8 can pull the opening and closing arm 5 to rotate or the opening and closing arm 5 can pull the pull rod 8 to displace.
[0023] Further, a through hole is formed in the side wall of the concave block 7 towards the pull rod 8, the end of the pull rod 8 is arranged to pass through the through hole, the end of the pull rod 8 towards the concave block 7 is provided with a thread, and the pull rod 8 is detachably connected with the concave block 7 through the nut 9. When the pull rod 8 is connected with the concave block 7, a nut 9 is screwed on the pull rod 8 in advance, the end of the pull rod 8 with the thread is inserted into the through hole of the concave block 7, and then the pull rod 8 is locked on the concave block 7 through another nut 9.
[0024] Further, the pull rod 8 is a telescopic rod. Specifically, the telescopic structure of the pull rod 8 can be selected from the prior art, and the length of the pull rod 8 is adjusted to prevent the pull rod 8 from being easily out of coordination when the pull rod 8 pulls the chain 6 to drive the tail plate 2 to close and limit the rear door 14.
[0025] Further, the side of the tail plate 2 away from the chain 6 is provided with a counterweight 10. In the embodiment, the counterweight 10 is plate-shaped, and the counterweight 10 is arranged along the length direction of the tail plate 2. The counterweight 10 increases the weight of the tail plate 2 and improves the structural strength of the tail plate 2, so that when the hopper 11 is tilted, the tail plate 2 can pull the chain 6 through the self-weight to drive the pull rod 8 to displace while the pull rod 8 pulls the opening and closing arm 5 to rotate.
[0026] Finally, it is explained that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application and are not limited. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the technical solutions of the present application can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the purpose and scope of the present application. The technical solutions of the present application should be covered in the scope of the claims of the present application.
