Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a bidirectional press-fitting device that presses together the front, middle, and rear swing frames and the walking frame of a high-drive bulldozer walking system using lubricated pins, belonging to the field of workshop equipment technology. Background Technology
[0002] The high-drive bulldozer's walking system consists of components such as the walking frame, drive sprockets, track rollers, idler wheels, carrier rollers, track tensioning devices, and track assemblies. There is one walking frame on each side, and each frame contains four sets of track rollers. These track rollers not only bear the entire weight of the bulldozer but also act as shock absorbers during movement. The four sets of track rollers are mounted on the front swing frame (one), middle swing frame (two), and rear swing frame (one). The four swing frames are connected to the walking frame via lubricated pins. The swing frames interact with the shock absorbers through their up-and-down movement, thus achieving a shock absorption effect. Each swing frame is connected to the walking frame on both the left and right sides via two lubricated pins. These lubricated pins act as a connection and lubrication point between the swing frames and the walking frame, ensuring smooth swinging of the swing frames around the pins. When actually pressing in the lubricated pins, it is necessary to ensure an interference fit between the lubricated pins and the walking frame and swing frames, while also ensuring that the self-lubricating bearing in the middle of the pin is not damaged, and also to allow for radial runout between the swing frames and the walking frame. The traditional press-fitting process involves first placing the left and right traveling frames flat with their lower surfaces facing upwards. Then, aligning the front swing frame (one), middle swing frame (two), and rear swing frame (one) with the corresponding holes on the traveling frames, and manually driving in eight lubrication pins one by one. This press-fitting method is extremely cumbersome, labor-intensive, and inefficient. Driving the pins in is difficult and unsafe, and manual driving can easily damage the bearings. Furthermore, due to the rigidity and springback of the components, assembly on the assembly line using ordinary tools often cannot achieve the pressure required for hydraulic presses, affecting the overall assembly quality. Therefore, improving the assembly efficiency and quality of the lubrication pins between the bulldozer's swing frames and traveling frames has been a persistent challenge for technical personnel.

[0023] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a bidirectional pressing device for the lubrication pin shaft of a high-drive bulldozer swing frame, thereby improving the assembly efficiency and quality of the entire bulldozer.
[0024] See Figures 1-5This utility model mainly includes a lifting ring 6, a diagonal arm 7, a lifting plate 8, an arched frame 9, a handle 10, a counterweight 11, a hydraulic cylinder 12, a washer 13, an adjusting screw 14, a slider 15, and a hydraulic control box 16. The hydraulic control box 16 is equipped with a hydraulic system.
[0025] The bow-shaped frame 9 has its opening facing downwards, and coaxial hydraulic cylinders 12 are symmetrically installed on the inner sides of both ends. A strip-shaped lifting plate 8 is horizontally fixed to the top of the bow-shaped frame 9 by bolts. A horizontal groove is provided at the tail end of the lifting plate 8, and a slider 15 is slidably installed within the groove. An adjusting screw 14 is rotatably connected to the bow-shaped frame 9 and threadedly engaged with the slider 15. A handwheel is installed at one end of the adjusting screw 14, allowing adjustment of the slider 15's position by rotating the bow-shaped frame 9. Four inclined arms 7 are divided into two pairs. The upper end of each pair of inclined arms 7 is rotatably connected to the lifting ring 6. The lower end of one pair of inclined arms 7 is rotatably connected to the head end of the lifting plate 8, and the lower end of the other pair of inclined arms 7 is rotatably connected to the slider 15. After the pressing equipment is lifted by the overhead crane, the position of the lifting ring 6 relative to the bow-shaped frame 9 can be changed by adjusting the position of the slider 15, thereby fine-tuning the inclination angle of the bow-shaped frame 9. Washers 13 are installed in the holes on both the front and rear sides of the lifting ring 6 that connect to each inclined arm 7.
[0026] The hydraulic control box 16 and the counterweight 11 are respectively installed on both sides of the bow frame 9. The top of the counterweight 11 is provided with a groove, and an adjustment block can be placed in the groove. By adding or removing the adjustment block, the center of gravity of the pressing equipment can be adjusted so that the opening of the bow frame 9 faces downward.
[0027] Handles 10 are installed on both sides of the bow-shaped frame 9 for adjusting the position and angle of the bow-shaped frame 9.
[0028] One end of the lubrication pin 3 is provided with a plug 4, and a retaining ring 5 is provided on the plug 4. The inner diameter of the retaining ring 5 is the same as the diameter of the piston rod of the oil cylinder 12. By fitting the retaining ring 5 onto the piston rod of the oil cylinder 12, the lubrication pin 3 can be detachably connected to the lubrication pin 3, so that the lubrication pin 3 can move together with the piston rod of the oil cylinder 12 and the two remain coaxial, which facilitates the press-fitting of the lubrication pin 3.
[0029] The hydraulic system includes an oil tank, a filter 17, an oil pump 18, a relief valve 19, a check valve 20, a directional valve 21, a pilot-operated check valve 22, a pressure gauge 23, and oil pipes. The oil pump 18's suction port is connected to the oil tank via the filter 17. The oil pump 18's outlet port is connected to the P port of the directional valve 21 via the check valve 20. The directional valve 21's T port is connected to the oil tank, and its A port is connected to the rodless chambers of the two cylinders 12 via the pilot-operated check valve 22. The directional valve 21's B port is connected to the rod chambers of the two cylinders 12 and the control port of the pilot-operated check valve 22. The pressure gauge 23 is installed on the high-pressure explosion-proof oil pipe between the pilot-operated check valve 22 and the cylinders 12. A relief valve 19 is installed between the oil pump 18's outlet port and the check valve 20 to adjust the working pressure of the cylinders 12.
[0030] The assembly process requirements for the traveling frame 1, the swing frame 2, and the lubrication pin 3 are: the radial runout of the traveling frame, the swing frame, and the lubrication pin ≤ 0.15mm. The hydraulic cylinder 12 can provide a pressure of approximately 10 to 20 tons.
[0031] The actual pressing process is as follows: First, place the traveling frame 1 with its lower surface facing upwards and stabilize it. Align the swing frame 2 with the corresponding hole of the traveling frame 1. Hook the crane hook onto the lifting ring 6 and lift the pressing equipment. Adjust the center of gravity of the pressing equipment by adjusting the weight of the adjusting block placed in the groove counterweight block 11, so that the opening of the bow frame 9 remains downward and without deviation. Use the crane to lift the pressing equipment directly above the pressing hole of the traveling frame 1. The worker adjusts the angle of the bow frame 9 through the four handles 10 on the left and right sides of the bow frame 9, so that the oil cylinder 12 is aligned with the pin hole. The position of the slider 15 relative to the bow frame 9 can be finely adjusted by rotating the adjusting screw 14, so that the oil cylinder 12 is precisely aligned with the pin hole. Four modulated circular washers 13 are welded on both sides of the lifting ring 6, which can reduce the friction between the lifting ring 6 and the inclined pull arm 7 during adjustment. When the axis of the two oil cylinders 12 is on the same axis as the axis of the pin hole, the lubrication pin 3 can be pressed. Align the lubrication pin 3 with the center of the hole, and operate the hydraulic system in the hydraulic control box 16. The hydraulic system connects the two cylinders 12 through explosion-proof oil pipes. During pressing, the components of the pressing equipment must be kept stable to ensure that the transverse center lines of the two cylinders, the transverse center lines of the swing frame pin holes, the transverse center lines of the traveling frame pin holes, and the center lines of the lubrication pins coincide. Start the motor, which drives the oil pump 18 to draw oil from the oil tank. The hydraulic oil in the tank passes through the oil pump 18 to the overflow valve 19. The oil coming out of the overflow valve 19 passes through the reversing valve 21 and enters the cylinders 12. The piston rods of both cylinders 12 extend simultaneously. By operating the reversing valve 21, the pistons of the cylinders are extended and retracted. While ensuring that the force on the left and right sides is uniform, the two lubrication pins on the left and right sides can be pressed simultaneously, greatly improving the pressing efficiency of the wheel lubrication pins. The hydraulic system of this pressing equipment is equipped with an overflow valve 19, which can accurately control the assembly pressure.
[0032] This invention uses the power provided by the hydraulic cylinders on both sides of the bow-shaped frame to simultaneously press two lubrication pins into the pin holes, thus press-fitting the swing frame and the traveling frame together. It features a simple structure, low cost, and convenient and quick operation, which greatly simplifies the assembly process, improves assembly efficiency and quality, and reduces assembly costs and the labor intensity of workers.
