Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a hydraulic oil collection device, specifically a hydraulic oil collection device for an excavator, and belongs to the field of excavator technology. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing market demand for excavators, the secondary disassembly and reassembly of hydraulic components in newly manufactured, modified, repaired, and shipped vehicles leads to significant hydraulic oil loss. Furthermore, due to the complex structure of the turntable, most of the spilled hydraulic oil cannot be recovered or drips onto the ground, causing environmental pollution, posing significant cleanup challenges, and resulting in substantial waste of resources and manpower. Currently, there is no device specifically designed for collecting excavator hydraulic oil. Therefore, research into an excavator hydraulic oil collection device is essential to prevent hydraulic oil waste and environmental pollution.

[0003] Currently, the collection of hydraulic oil from excavators is mostly done manually by placing a plastic bucket or bag under the pipeline before it is removed. Longer hydraulic pipelines are left empty in the bucket, while shorter hydraulic pipelines are difficult to collect intact.

[0004] Since the current method of collecting hydraulic oil from excavators is done by maintenance personnel, which is entirely manual, it inevitably leads to the waste of hydraulic oil and pollution of the vehicle and the ground. If the operator is not careful, it is easy to slip and fall, resulting in an accident. Moreover, cleaning up the polluted vehicle and the ground is time-consuming and laborious. Summary of the Invention

One end of the electric push rod 10 is connected to the hinge seat 3 at the top of the vertical frame, and the other end is hinged to the other lateral end of the hinge bracket 9. The angle of the collection plate 1 is adjusted by the telescopic movement of the electric push rod 10.

[0051] Further options, such as Figure 1 As shown, there are two telescopic and hinge mechanisms, which are arranged opposite each other at the two longitudinal ends of the upper part of the upright frame.

[0052] The following provides a further explanation of the specific structure of the collection plate described above.

[0053] like Figure 1As shown, the oil collection channel includes an oil collection trough 4 and a collection pipe 11. The oil collection trough 4 consists of an arc-shaped groove plate with its opening facing the collection plate 1 and baffles located at the two longitudinal ends of the arc-shaped groove plate.

[0054] Further options, such as Figure 1 As shown, the inner wall of the arc-shaped groove plate is provided with a slope that gradually slopes from the middle area to both ends in the longitudinal direction, so that the hydraulic oil falling from the collecting plate 1 can be collected in the middle position of the arc-shaped groove plate; one end of the collecting pipe 11 is connected to the middle area of ​​the arc-shaped groove plate.

[0055] The following provides a further explanation of the specific structure of the aforementioned remote control system.

[0056] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the wireless remote control part uses a remote controller, and the wireless receiving part uses a wireless receiver 15. The wireless receiver 15 is fixed on the oil collection channel by the wireless receiver bracket 14.

[0059] Further options, such as Figure 1 As shown, multiple casters 17 are installed on the base frame.

[0060] In summary, this utility model provides a hydraulic oil collection device. The collection plate 1 is a smooth, transparent plastic plate with recessed tracks. It is placed on the lower mounting frame 2, and the mounting frame 2 and the mechanism base 16 are connected by a hinge mechanism. The angle of the mounting frame 2 is continuously adjusted by the extension and retraction of the electric push rod 10, thereby enabling the collection plate 1 to better collect hydraulic oil. Hydraulic oil drips from the machine onto the collection plate 1 and flows continuously into the lower oil collection tank 4 along the tracks. The internal structure of the oil collection tank 4 is a steep slope that gradually slopes from the middle to both sides, which can better collect the hydraulic oil at the middle position and enter the container placed below through the collection pipe 11, thus completing the recycling of hydraulic oil. The entire device is mounted on the mechanism base 16 and is moved by four casters 17.

[0061] The solar panel 3 collects energy under sunlight and charges the battery 7 through the solar panel converter 5. The solar panel converter 5 integrates a power indicator. When the battery 7 is fully charged, the indicator light will show a green light. When the battery 7 is charging, the indicator light will show a yellow light. When the battery 7 is low on power, the indicator light will show a red light.

[0062] A rocker switch 13 is connected in series between the battery 7 and the input terminal of the wireless receiver 15 to control the power-on and power-off of the wireless receiver 15. When the rocker switch 13 is open, the indicator light of the wireless receiver 15 will light up, indicating that the wireless receiver 15 is in working condition. The output terminal of the wireless receiver 15 is connected to the electric push rod 10. At this time, the remote control can send the extension and retraction command of the electric push rod to the wireless receiver 15. After receiving the command, the wireless receiver 15 will control the electric push rod 10 to extend and retract. When the electric push rod 10 extends and retracts, it will cause the placement rack 2 to tilt continuously. When the rocker switch 13 is closed, the indicator light of the wireless receiver 15 will go out, indicating that the wireless receiver 15 is in a non-working condition. When the remote control is pressed, the wireless receiver 15 will not receive any signal.

[0063] It should be noted that the collecting plate can be made into an unfolding type or a folding type; the power supply method can be made into a solar panel to collect electrical energy or a battery to supply it directly; the hinge mechanism can be made into an automatic extension and retraction type using an electric push rod or a manual sliding groove structure; the tilting mechanism can be controlled by a remote control, either wirelessly or wiredly.

[0064] Numerous specific details are set forth in the specification provided herein. However, it will be understood that embodiments of the present invention may be practiced without these specific details. In some instances, well-known methods, structures, and techniques have not been shown in detail so as not to obscure the understanding of this specification.
