[0025] It should be noted that the following detailed description is illustrative and intended to provide further explanation of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains.

[0026] The rear drive axle of loaders with a capacity of 5 tons or more is equipped with a swing frame. The rear drive axle is connected to the vehicle frame through the swing frame. The existing axle housing or axle cylinder with the swing frame assembly is subject to large bending stress, resulting in poor reliability. Furthermore, the various components of the swing frame assembly are prone to wear, making it difficult to balance rigidity and wear resistance. Additionally, grease leakage is likely to occur, causing grease waste and affecting the use of the swing frame assembly.

[0027] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. This embodiment discloses a swing frame assembly structure, as shown below. Figure 2 As shown, it includes a swing frame 1, a connecting sleeve 2, a bushing 4, a washer, and a cover plate 7; the swing frame 1 is connected to the drive axle housing or axle cylinder through the connecting sleeve 2, and the connecting sleeve 2 is connected to the axle housing or axle cylinder; the end face of the connecting sleeve 2 is connected to the cover plate 7 by bolts, and the cover plate 7 is located between the connecting sleeve 2 and the swing frame 1; a washer is provided at the connection position of the cover plate 7, the swing frame 1, and the connecting sleeve 2, and a bushing 4 is provided at the connection position of the connecting sleeve 2 and the swing frame 1.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the swing frame 1 has several threaded holes spaced apart, and these threaded holes are spaced around the center of the swing frame 1. The two ends of the swing frame 1 have through holes. The end face of the swing frame 1 is the mounting surface 8 between the swing frame 1 and the frame. The mounting surface 8 between the swing frame 1 and the frame is arranged with a small offset (i.e., the distance from the mounting surface to the center line of the connecting sleeve is ≤50mm).

[0029] The swing frame 1 is cut from a steel plate of a certain thickness specification, thereby saving mold opening costs, and the thickness of the steel plate is selected according to the overall machine weight and the rated load; the swing frame 1 is connected with the drive axle housing or axle tube through a connecting sleeve 2, the connecting sleeve 2 is fixed to the axle housing or axle tube through bolts or welding, the swing frame 1 and the vehicle frame mounting surface 8 are arranged with a small offset (the distance from the mounting surface 8 to the center line of the connecting sleeve 2 is less than or equal to 50 mm), thereby avoiding that the axle housing or axle tube is subjected to a large bending stress and improving the reliability.

[0030] The gaskets include a first gasket 3, a second gasket 4 and a third gasket 6, and the first gasket 3, the second gasket 4 and the third gasket 6 are arranged at the connecting positions of the cover plate 7, the swing frame 1 and the connecting sleeve 2.

[0031] The first gasket 3 and the second gasket 4 are 0-type rings. The 0-type ring is a common sealing element applied in various mechanical equipment, and its main function is to prevent fluid or gas leakage, and at the same time, it plays a sealing and isolation role. The 0-type ring is widely used due to its simple structure, convenient installation and reliable sealing performance. The 0-type ring arranged at multiple positions can play a good sealing role.

[0032] The first gasket 3 is arranged at the connecting position of the swing frame 1 and the connecting sleeve 2, and the second gasket 4 is arranged at the connecting position of the cover plate 7 and the connecting sleeve 2. The third gasket 6 is arranged at the upper and lower ends of the end portion of the cover plate 7, one end face of the third gasket 6 is tightly attached to the surface of the cover plate 7, and the other end face of the third gasket 6 is tightly attached to the surface of the swing frame 1. One end face of the bushing 4 is attached to the surface of the connecting sleeve 2, and the other end face of the bushing 4 is attached to the surface of the swing frame 1.

[0033] The end face of the connecting sleeve 2 is fastened with the cover plate 7 through bolts, and the cover plate 7 limits the axial movement of the swing frame 1; the swing frame 1 and the connecting sleeve 2, and the swing frame 1 and the cover plate 7 have relative rotation, in order to avoid wear and tear, a high-strength wear-resistant material bushing 4 and a gasket are used in the middle to ensure rigidity and increase wear resistance, thereby avoiding wear and tear of each component of the swing frame 1 assembly, and achieving the combination of rigidity and wear resistance.

[0034] The connecting sleeve 2 and the swing frame 1 are detachably connected; the connecting sleeve 2 and the cover plate 7 are detachably connected; the cover plate 7 and the swing frame 1 are detachably connected; and the connecting sleeve 2, the swing frame 1 and the cover plate 7 are detachably connected, thereby facilitating disassembly and convenient for later installation and maintenance.

[0035] The cover plate 7 is fixed at the connecting sleeve 2 through bolts, and the cover plate 7 has a sealing ring, which controls the gap between the cover plate 7 and the gasket and the surrounding space, thereby reducing the lubricating grease filling space of the swing frame 1; as shown in Figure 2 , there are a first filling position and a second filling position, wherein the first filling position is a relative movable surface, at which the lubricating grease is brushed, and the second filling position is a cavity, in which the lubricating grease is filled.

[0036] The connecting sleeve 2 can be fixed to the axle housing body by bolts or welding, reducing the grease filling space of the swing frame 1, saving the amount of grease filling, and filling the grease in the position of the bushing 4 and the gasket. In order to avoid the exosmosis of the grease, the first gasket 3 and the second gasket 4 are sealed, the amount of the grease is reduced, and the waste caused by the exosmosis of the grease is avoided.

[0037] Although the specific embodiments of the present application are described above with reference to the drawings, it is not a limitation on the scope of protection of the present application. Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications or changes made by those skilled in the art on the basis of the technical solutions of the present application without creative labor are still within the scope of protection of the present application.
