Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wide-body dump truck technology, specifically to a spraying system for a wide-body dump truck. Background Technology
[0002] When a wide-body dump truck is working normally, the wheel hubs consume a lot of energy due to the harsh working environment, large load capacity, and heavy load. Long-distance driving or frequent braking leads to increased temperature rise of the wheel hubs and tires. Over time, this will not only shorten the service life of the wheel hubs and tires, but also increase the failure rate, thereby affecting the overall working efficiency of the vehicle.
[0003] By installing a spray system, water can be sprayed onto the tires and brake pads to prevent tire blowouts or brake failure caused by high temperatures, thus improving driving safety. Existing spray systems are installed between the cargo box, subframe, and chassis wheel hubs. Using a large-capacity water tank, pre-controlled water channels spray water onto the mining truck wheel hubs to cool them, protecting the hubs and tires. The water tank is vertically mounted and secured to the front panel of the cargo box using a fixing device. While this method works well when the front panel is vertical, it requires significant space between the front panel and the cab when the front panel is tilted, making the vertical water tank installation inconvenient. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a spraying system for wide-body dump trucks, solving the problem that the installation method of the water tank in the current spraying system of wide-body dump trucks is not suitable for the tilted front panel of the cargo box.
[0005] This utility model provides a spraying system for a wide-body dump truck, comprising:
[0006] The bracket includes a fixed plate and a mounting plate, the mounting plate and the fixed plate being connected; the fixed plate includes an integrally formed horizontal section and an inclined section, the horizontal section being horizontally positioned, and the inclined section being set at an angle to match the inclination of the front panel of the cargo box;
[0007] A water tank is horizontally mounted on the bracket, and the mounting plate has a mounting section that fits against the outer wall of the water tank.
[0008] The water spray pipe is connected to the water tank and is used to spray water onto the wheel hub and tires.
[0009] Drainage pipe, located at the bottom of the water tank, is used for filling / draining water;
[0010] The air intake pipe has one end connected to the chassis air line for air intake, and the other end for air supply to the water tank.
[0011] As can be seen from the above technical solution, the spraying system for a wide-body dump truck provided by this utility model arranges the water tank of the spraying system horizontally and fixes it with a bracket. The horizontally arranged water tank can reduce the installation space required between the front panel of the cargo box and the cab during the arrangement. However, the horizontally arranged water tank is prone to horizontal displacement during driving. The fixing plate of the bracket can also be set in conjunction with the inclined front panel of the cargo box to facilitate the limiting of the water tank.
[0012] Optionally, the bracket is also equipped with a shoulder strap, which holds the water tank in place on the bracket. The shoulder strap, in conjunction with the bracket, secures the water tank and prevents it from moving during travel.
[0013] Optionally, auxiliary mounting parts are also provided on both sides of the inclined section, and the auxiliary mounting parts are configured to cooperate with the vertical beams on the front panel of the cargo box. The auxiliary mounting parts, in conjunction with the inclined section, fix the bracket to the front panel of the cargo box, thereby enhancing the structural stability of the bracket.
[0014] Optionally, the bottom of the bracket is further provided with a diagonal brace, one end of which is located at the bottom of the horizontal section, and the other end is connected to the front panel of the cargo box. The diagonal brace improves the connection strength between the bracket and the front panel of the cargo box.
[0015] Optionally, the water tank is cylindrical, and the mounting section is arc-shaped. If the water tank is prismatic and positioned laterally, the side edges can easily damage the bracket during operation, affecting the bracket's lifespan and driving safety. Making the water tank cylindrical improves the reliability of the contact point between the bracket and the water tank, thus enhancing driving safety.
[0016] Optionally, a vertical support plate is also provided between the fixing plate and the mounting plate. By providing a vertical support plate, the connection strength between the fixing plate and the mounting plate can be improved. For the mounting section that is set in contact with the outer wall of the water tank, the structural strength can also be guaranteed, and the deformation of the mounting section caused by the water tank can be avoided.
[0017] Optionally, the water tank is made of aluminum alloy. Compared to traditional steel plate welded water tanks, this reduces corrosion inside the tank, preventing interference with the normal operation of control components and avoiding malfunctions.
[0018] Optionally, the water spray pipe includes:
[0019] The water spray steel pipe is connected to the water tank and is located at the bottom of the cargo box, which is lifted synchronously with the cargo box;
[0020] The water spray hose is connected to the water spray steel pipe and is configured to correspond to the number of wheel hubs;
[0021] The spray assembly, connected to the water spray hose, is used to spray water onto the wheel hub and tires.
[0022] Optionally, the water spray pipe is also equipped with a solenoid valve.
[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, this application has the following technical effects:
[0024] This utility model arranges the water tank of the sprinkler system horizontally and fixes it with a bracket. The horizontal arrangement of the water tank can reduce the installation space required between the front panel of the cargo box and the cab. However, the horizontally arranged water tank is prone to horizontal displacement during driving. The fixing plate of the bracket can also be set in conjunction with the inclined front panel of the cargo box. While realizing the water tank limit, it further reduces the installation space requirement and improves the compactness of the installation structure. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0032] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These embodiments are merely illustrative of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0033] It should be noted that, unless otherwise stated, the technical or scientific terms used in this application shall have the ordinary meaning as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this utility model pertains.
[0034] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.
[0035] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, a spraying system for a wide-body dump truck is provided, including a bracket 1, a water tank 2, a water spray pipe 3, a drainage pipe 4, and an air intake pipe 5. The bracket 1 includes a fixing plate 11 and a mounting plate 12, which are connected to the fixing plate 11. The fixing plate 11 includes an integrally formed horizontal section 111 and an inclined section 112. The horizontal section 111 is horizontally positioned, and the inclined section 112 is set to match the inclination angle of the front panel of the cargo box. The water tank 2 is horizontally positioned on the bracket 1. The mounting plate 12 has a mounting section 121, which is fitted against the outer wall of the water tank 2. The water spray pipe 3 is connected to the water tank 2 and is used to spray water onto the wheel hubs and tires. The drainage pipe 4 is located at the bottom of the water tank 2 and is used for water filling / draining. One end of the air intake pipe 5 is connected to the chassis air circuit for air intake, and the other end supplies air to the water tank 2.
[0036] Based on this, by arranging the water tank 2 of the spray system laterally and fixing it with the bracket 1, the horizontally arranged water tank 2 can reduce the installation space requirement between the front panel of the cargo box and the cab during the arrangement. However, the horizontally arranged water tank 2 is prone to horizontal displacement during driving. The fixing plate 11 of the bracket 1 can also be set in conjunction with the inclined front panel of the cargo box to limit the water tank 2 while further compressing the space requirement and improving the compactness of the installation structure.
[0037] like Figure 2As shown, a carrying strap 13 is also provided on the bracket 1, which confines the water tank 2 to the bracket 1. The carrying strap 13 and the mounting section 121 can fit snugly around the outer wall of the water tank 2 to prevent the water tank 2 from moving during travel. An auxiliary mounting part 14 is also provided on the back of the inclined section 112, which cooperates with the vertical beam on the front panel of the cargo box. A diagonal brace 15 is also provided at the bottom of the bracket 1. One end of the diagonal brace 15 is located at the bottom of the horizontal section 111, and the other end is connected to the front panel of the cargo box. The diagonal brace 15 is also set to match the tilt angle of the front panel of the cargo box, and the diagonal brace 15 can support the bottom of the bracket to prevent the bracket 1 from deforming.
[0038] like Figure 2-3 As shown, the water tank 2 is cylindrical, and the mounting section 121 is arc-shaped. If the water tank 2 is prismatic and positioned laterally, the side edge can easily damage the bracket 1 during driving, affecting the lifespan of the bracket 1 and driving safety. By making the water tank 2 cylindrical, the bracket 1, in conjunction with the strap 13, effectively limits the water tank 2, improving the reliability of the contact point between the bracket 1 and the water tank 2 and enhancing driving safety.
[0039] Optionally, a reinforcing arc plate 17 is also provided on the mounting section 121 to improve structural strength.
[0040] Specifically, a vertical support plate 16 is also provided between the fixing plate 11 and the mounting plate 12. By providing the vertical support plate 16, the connection strength between the fixing plate 11 and the mounting plate 12 can be improved. For the mounting section 121 that is attached to the outer wall of the water tank 2, the structural strength can also be guaranteed, and the deformation of the mounting section 121 caused by the water tank 2 can be avoided.
[0041] In one specific embodiment, the water tank 2 is made of aluminum alloy. Compared to water tanks 2 made of traditional welded steel plates, this reduces corrosion inside the water tank 2 and avoids malfunctions caused by affecting the normal operation of control components.
[0042] Specifically, the top of the water tank 2 is equipped with an air inlet 6, and the air intake pipe 5 is connected to the air inlet 6 to supply air into the water tank 2, providing air pressure to spray water. The water spray pipe 3 is connected to the water outlet 7 at the bottom of the water tank 2. The water spray pipe 3 includes: a water spray steel pipe 31, a water spray hose 32, and a spray assembly 33. The water spray steel pipe 31 is connected to the water tank 2 and is located at the bottom of the cargo box, lifting synchronously with the cargo box; the water spray hose 32 is connected to the water spray steel pipe 31 and is set according to the number of wheel hubs; the spray assembly 33 is connected to the water spray hose 32 and is used to spray water on the wheel hubs and tires.
[0043] The bottom of the water tank 2 is also equipped with a drain outlet 8, and the drain pipe 4 is connected to the drain outlet 8.
[0044] Optionally, the water spray line 3 is also equipped with a solenoid valve to control the water spray. The air intake line 5 is also equipped with a solenoid valve to control the air intake.
[0045] Based on the technical solution provided in this embodiment, in specific implementation, the air intake pipe 5 takes in air to provide air pressure to the water tank 2, so that water is sprayed out from the water spray pipe 3; specifically, the solenoid valve can be controlled to control whether to take in air or whether to spray water.
[0046] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model, and they should all be covered within the scope of the claims and specification of this utility model.
