Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of snow removal equipment technology, specifically relating to an integrated auger support for a snow removal machine. Background Technology

[0002] Winter snow accumulation causes great inconvenience to vehicles and pedestrians, and can even cause traffic accidents. To facilitate travel, people have created a variety of snow removal machines or devices. For example, a snowplow includes an auger snow collection device connected to the engine via a transfer case. The output shaft of the transfer case is connected to the auger frame, which drives the auger frame to rotate. The blades on the auger frame collect the snow during rotation and throw it out through the throwing head on the base of the snowplow, thereby achieving the purpose of snow removal.

[0003] However, this type of auger snow collection device requires blade replacement after prolonged use because its edges come into contact with the ground during use. The auger is usually formed by spirally bending a single piece of steel bar and is an integral structure with the central drive shaft. Therefore, when replacing it, the drive shaft needs to be completely removed from the housing and the entire auger assembly needs to be replaced, resulting in high costs. In addition, it is more complicated to disassemble the entire auger assembly than to disassemble the entire auger assembly. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention aims to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art and provide an integrated auger support for a snow sweeper.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical problems of this utility model are mainly solved by the following technical solution: an integral auger support for a snow sweeper, including a rotating shaft, a middle connecting plate at the middle position of the rotating shaft, a side connecting plate at each end of the rotating shaft, three stamped protrusions at the middle position of the middle connecting plate, the middle stamped protrusion bending downwards, the stamped protrusions on both sides bending upwards, the rotating shaft passing through the three stamped protrusions, the middle connecting plate at the front of the rotating shaft being the front connecting part, and the middle connecting plate at the rear of the rotating shaft being the front connecting part. The plate is a rear connecting part. Both the left and right sides of the front and rear connecting parts are provided with a middle folding connecting ear. The two middle folding connecting ears in the front connecting part are folded upward, and the two middle folding connecting ears in the rear connecting part are folded downward. The upper and lower ends of the side connecting plate are provided with a side folding connecting ear. The rear end of the upper side folding connecting ear is connected to the side connecting plate, and the front end of the lower side folding connecting ear is connected to the side connecting plate. Both side folding connecting ears are folded towards the middle connecting plate along the connection point.

[0006] Preferably, a pin slot is formed in the middle of the side connecting plate, and a pin hole is provided in the stamped protrusion in the middle of the middle connecting plate.

[0007] Preferably, the rotating shaft is provided with three fixing pins, which are respectively located at the corresponding positions of the middle connecting plate and the side connecting plate. The fixing pins on both sides are engaged in the pin slots of the side connecting plate, and the middle fixing pin is fixed in the middle stamped protruding pin hole.

[0008] Preferably, each of the middle folding connecting ears and the side folding connecting ears is provided with two connecting holes.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By setting an intermediate connecting plate and a side connecting plate, and setting an intermediate folding connecting ear and a side folding connecting ear on the intermediate connecting plate and the side connecting plate respectively, the auger blades are connected by the intermediate folding connecting ear and the side folding connecting ear. When the auger blades need to be repaired or replaced, they can be replaced simply by removing the auger blades from the intermediate connecting plate and the side connecting plate. There is no need to disassemble the entire auger assembly, which can effectively reduce the maintenance cost and further improve the convenience of disassembly and assembly.

[0010] By setting a middle folding connecting ear and a side folding connecting ear, the bending angle of both can further conform to the curvature of the auger blade, thereby improving the installation strength of the auger blade. Attached Figure Description

[0014] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below through embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0015] Example: An integral auger support for a snowplow, such as Figures 1-2As shown, the device includes a rotating shaft with a central connecting plate at its center and two side connecting plates at each end. The central connecting plate has three stamped protrusions at its center, with the central protrusion bent downwards and the two side protrusions bent upwards. The rotating shaft passes between these three protrusions. The central connecting plate at the front of the rotating shaft is the front connecting part, and the central connecting plate at the rear of the rotating shaft is the rear connecting part. Both the front and rear connecting parts have a central folding connecting lug on their left and right sides. Two of the central folding connecting lugs in the front connecting part fold upwards, and two of the central folding connecting lugs in the rear connecting part fold downwards. The side connecting plates have a side folding connecting lug at both their upper and lower ends. The rear end of the upper side folding connecting lug connects to the side connecting plate, and the front end of the lower side folding connecting lug connects to the side connecting plate. Both side folding connecting lugs fold towards the central connecting plate along the connection point.

[0016] A pin slot is formed by stamping at the middle position of the side connecting plate, and a pin hole is provided in the stamped protrusion at the middle position of the middle connecting plate.

[0017] The rotating shaft is provided with three fixing pins. The three fixing pins are respectively located at the corresponding positions of the middle connecting plate and the side connecting plate. The fixing pins on both sides are locked in the pin slots of the side connecting plate, and the middle fixing pin is fixed in the middle stamped protruding pin hole.

[0018] Each of the aforementioned middle folding connecting ears and side folding connecting ears is provided with two connecting holes.

[0019] The principle of this utility model is as follows: The intermediate connecting plate is stamped and formed by a stamping die, and weight-reducing holes are formed on the front and rear connecting parts on the three stamped protrusions. Reinforcing ribs are also added to improve the overall strength of the intermediate connecting plate. Similarly, reinforcing ribs are added to the side connecting plates by stamping to increase the overall strength. During installation, the intermediate connecting plate is first passed through the rotating shaft and fixed to the other two by inserting a fixing pin into the pin hole. Then, the two side connecting plates are installed on the rotating shaft and fixed to the side connecting plates by fixing pins. When installing the auger blades, the two ends of the auger blades are fixed by connecting holes in the intermediate folding connecting ears and the side folding connecting ears, respectively.

[0020] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely representative examples of this utility model. Obviously, this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments and can have many variations. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of this utility model should be considered to fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
