Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to excavator accessory field, concretely, especially relates to a wheel excavator machine cover. BACKGROUND

[0002] Wheel excavator is widely applied in road repair, ditching and material transferring process because of the advantages of strong mobility, flexible action and walking on city or country road.

[0003] When wheel excavator goes to destination and returns, long time high speed walking (i.e. running) may be needed, at this time engine load is high, therefore engine water temperature is high often, especially in the case of engine transverse arrangement. When engine water temperature is high, in order to protect engine, engine output power is limited directly or the machine is stopped directly, so that engine temperature is reduced.

[0004] Therefore, in order to ensure that engine high temperature does not occur when running, the following methods are generally used: increasing fan rotating speed, increasing opening size, increasing radiator size, optimizing space structure to make it easier to ventilate.

[0005] But the corresponding disadvantage is that noise will also be high, affecting performance index and user experience; cost will increase, and at the same time, due to limited space, hydraulic oil radiator space may not be placed or be squeezed, resulting in hydraulic oil temperature exceeding standard; machine cover internal space is limited, and when the size of each part is determined, it is difficult to change, so the space structure is generally difficult to optimize. UTILITY MODEL CONTENT

[0009] Further, the left machine cover is fixed on the upper machine cover through a hinge, and the left machine cover is fixed on the framework of the cabin through a gas spring below; a plurality of ventilation holes II are arranged on the left machine cover, an opening is arranged on the lower part of the left machine cover, and a plurality of air inlet strips are arranged in the opening.

[0010] Further, the air inlet strip is parallel to the left cover plane and has an angle of 45 degrees, and the air inlet strip is high inside and low outside, and the upper edge of the air inlet strip is higher than the lower edge of the adjacent air inlet strip.

[0011] Further, the right cover is fixed to the upper cover through two hinges, and the lower surface of the right cover is fixed to the framework of the cabin through air springs.

[0012] Further, the metal net is arranged with a plurality of mesh holes, and the mesh holes are regular hexagons.

[0013] Further, the material of the air outlet cover plate is light metal.

[0014] Further, the soft pad is covered around the ventilation hole III.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0016] When the rear cover is excavated, the air outlet cover plate is closed, so that the noise caused by the excessively large opening is avoided, and the sealing property of the cover is improved, when the car is running, the air outlet cover plate is lifted by the wind force and the inertial effect, the heat generated by the engine is taken away in time, at the same time, the higher the engine power is, the faster the car speed is, the faster the flow rate of the wind is, and the more heat is taken away, so that the heat dissipation performance of the radiator is greatly improved.

Based on the embodiments in this application, other similar embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should all fall within the scope of protection of this application. Furthermore, the directional terms mentioned in the following embodiments, such as "up," "down," "left," and "right," are only for reference to the directions in the accompanying drawings. Therefore, the directional terms used are for illustrative purposes and not for limiting the creation of this utility model.

[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Example 1: A wheeled excavator hood, such as Figures 1-2 As shown, the engine compartment includes an engine bay. The frame of the engine bay is bolted to an upper engine cover 1. A left engine cover 2, a right engine cover 3, and a rear engine cover 4 are hinged to the upper engine cover 1. The left engine cover 2, the right engine cover 3, and the rear engine cover 4 can all be opened for easy cleaning of the radiator and replacement and maintenance of engine bay components. The upper engine cover 1 has several ventilation holes I11 on the air intake side for auxiliary air intake, and an exhaust hole 12 on the other side for exposing the engine exhaust pipe. The rear engine cover 4 is L-shaped and covers the counterweight 5. The rear engine cover 4 is divided into horizontal and vertical parts. The vertical part of the rear engine cover 4 has two opening surfaces 41. The opening surfaces 41 form an angle of 20-30° with the vertical plane. Each opening surface 41 has three ventilation holes III. The ventilation holes III are equipped with exhaust covers 43. The exhaust covers 43 are connected to the opening surfaces 41 by a shaft pin 44.

[0027] Example 2: A wheeled excavator hood, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the left engine cover 2 is fixed to the upper engine cover 1 by hinges, and the lower part of the left engine cover 2 is fixed to the frame of the cabin by gas springs; the left engine cover 2 is provided with multiple rows of ventilation holes II 21, which are strip-shaped, and the left engine cover 2 is provided with an opening 22, in which several air inlet strips 23 are provided; the air inlet strips 23 are at a 45° angle to the plane of the left engine cover 2, and the air inlet strips 23 are arranged in parallel with the inner side higher than the outer side. The upper edge of the air inlet strip 23 is higher than the lower edge of the adjacent air inlet strip 23 above it, which can block the transmission of noise, minimize noise, and reduce the entry of rainwater.

[0028] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the right engine cover 3 is fixed to the upper engine cover 1 by two hinges, and the right engine cover 3 is fixed to the frame of the cabin by a gas spring; a metal mesh 31 is bolted to the right engine cover 3; the metal mesh 31 has a number of mesh holes arranged on it, the mesh holes are regular hexagonal with a side length of 1cm, so as to minimize the resistance of airflow when the air is vented.

[0029] The material of the air outlet cover plate 43 is a light metal, so that the air outlet cover plate 43 can be easily lifted by wind force and inertia.

[0030] The air vent III is covered with a soft pad 42, specifically a rubber pad, to increase the friction between the air outlet cover plate 43 and the opening surface 41, improve the sealing property of the two, and reduce the impact sound. The rest is the same as example 1.

[0031] When digging, the air outlet cover plate 43 of the utility model is closed, which avoids excessive noise caused by a large opening, increases the sealing property of the machine cover, and improves the user experience. When running, the air outlet cover plate 43 is lifted by wind force and inertia, and the heat generated by the engine is timely removed. At the same time, the higher the engine power, the faster the vehicle speed, the faster the wind speed, and the more heat removed. This greatly improves the heat dissipation performance of the radiator and avoids high temperature of the engine.

[0032] The utility model has been described in detail above, and the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, which cannot limit the scope of the utility model. Any equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of the application shall still fall within the scope of the utility model.
