Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of slewing bearing technology, specifically to a quick-release slewing bearing. Background Technology
[0002] A slewing bearing is a mechanical support device used to support and position mechanical structures or equipment during rotational motion. It typically consists of an inner ring, an outer ring, rolling elements, and seals, capable of withstanding axial and radial loads and providing smooth motion during rotation. Slewing bearings are widely used in various industrial equipment, construction machinery, ships, bridge cranes, and wind power equipment. A Chinese utility model patent (publication number: CN221683378U) discloses a slewing bearing that is easy to maintain. During maintenance, the assembly and disassembly components allow for quick disassembly, improving worker efficiency and eliminating the need to carry additional tools.
[0003] However, the above-mentioned device still has some shortcomings in use: Specifically, since the lever slides on the outside of the fixed shell, the fixed shell has a sliding groove for the lever to move. When the slewing bearing is used in a complex environment, dust and other impurities can easily enter the interior of the fixed shell from the sliding groove. Since the fixed shell has a slot for the locking pin to pass through, dust and other impurities can enter the annular groove opened on the outside of the inner support ring through the slot. After the dust accumulates, it will affect the overall rotation performance of the slewing bearing. Therefore, a quick-disassembly slewing bearing is proposed to address the above situation. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a quick-assembly slewing bearing. Through the structural design of U-shaped block, protective plate, lever block and positioning rod, after the outer support ring and inner support ring are assembled, the sliding groove can be shielded and protected. This solves the problem that dust and other impurities enter the annular groove on the outside of the inner support ring through the groove opening, and the accumulation of dust will affect the overall rotation performance of the slewing bearing.
[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0006] This utility model is a quick-assembly slewing bearing, including an outer support ring, a U-shaped block, and a protective plate. An inner support ring is rotatably mounted on the inner ring of the outer support ring. A fixed shell is mounted on the outer support ring, and the fixed shell has an inner cavity. A sliding groove communicating with the inner cavity is opened on the top of the fixed shell. An assembly / disassembly mechanism is installed in the inner cavity, including a lever with one end extending out of the sliding groove. The U-shaped block is mounted on the top of the fixed shell and has an assembly cavity communicating with the sliding groove. An opening communicating with the assembly cavity is opened at one end of the U-shaped block. Positioning holes are opened on both sides of the inner wall of the U-shaped block. A positioning mechanism is installed on the protective plate. When the protective plate is fitted onto the assembly cavity, one end of the protective plate abuts against the lever, and the positioning mechanism engages with the positioning hole.
[0007] Furthermore, the lever is a "T"-shaped rod with an opening that fits the lever clearance.
[0008] Furthermore, side grooves are provided on both sides of the assembly cavity, and both sides of the protective plate have raised edges, which slide in conjunction with the side grooves.
[0009] Furthermore, the positioning mechanism includes two rectangular grooves, and movable grooves connecting the rectangular grooves are respectively opened on both sides of the outer wall of the protective plate.
[0010] Furthermore, a lever is slidably fitted on the rectangular groove. One end of the lever is fixed with a positioning rod that protrudes from the movable groove and engages with a positioning hole. A spring is fixed on the side of the lever away from the positioning rod, and one end of the spring is fixed to the inner wall of the rectangular groove.
[0011] Furthermore, an installation groove is provided on the outer support ring, and the fixing shell is fixed on the installation groove.
[0012] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] This utility model, through the structural design of U-shaped blocks, protective plates, levers, and positioning rods, can shield and protect the sliding groove after the outer and inner support rings are assembled. This prevents dust from entering the fixed shell during the use of the slewing bearing and eventually entering the annular groove on the inner support ring, thus affecting the rotational performance of the slewing bearing and improving its service life.
[0014] This utility model, through the structural design of U-shaped block, protective plate, lever block and positioning rod, not only plays a dustproof role, but also limits the lever, thereby effectively avoiding the collision between the ball and the annular groove in the disassembly and assembly mechanism caused by mechanical vibration, reducing the wear of the ball and the annular groove, and extending the service life of the slewing bearing.
[0015] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description
