This invention features a simple structure, reduced costs, a smaller turning radius, a lower center of gravity, good heat dissipation, ease of operation and maintenance, and improved aesthetics.
[0004] While the above solutions can reduce costs, decrease the turning radius of the entire machine, lower the center of gravity, improve heat dissipation, facilitate operation and maintenance, and enhance the aesthetics of the overall appearance, the counterweight device in the aforementioned patent is difficult to adjust the weight of the counterweight according to the site conditions. If it cannot be adjusted according to the site, it may lead to equipment instability or even tipping over, causing safety accidents. Therefore, we provide an adjustable weight modular engineering vehicle counterweight device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] 1. The engineering vehicle counterweight device of this application uses the engineering vehicle body, mounting plate, electric telescopic rod, limiting plate, buckle, first counterweight block, first groove and first fixing screw in cooperation. The limiting plate is driven to rise and fall by the electric telescopic rod, which can automatically unlock and lock the connection between the buckle and the first counterweight block.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] like Figure 5 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution for an adjustable weight modular engineering vehicle counterweight device, including an engineering vehicle body 1. An installation plate 2 is fixedly connected to one side of the engineering vehicle body 1. A guide groove 16 is provided on the inner wall of the installation plate 2. The guide rod 13 is inserted into the guide groove 16. The guide groove 16 on the inner wall of the installation plate 2 can guide the first counterweight 6. When the first counterweight 6 rises, the guide rod 13 can be inserted into the guide groove 16 to play a guiding role. A second groove 15 is provided on one side of the installation plate 2. A third slot 14 is provided inside the second groove 15. The second groove 15 on one side of the installation plate 2 can facilitate the rotation of the first fixing screw 8 inside it. The third slot 14 on one side of the installation plate 2 can fix the hoisted counterweight to prevent the counterweight from falling off when the engineering vehicle is working.
[0025] like Figure 3As shown, an electric telescopic rod 3 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate 2. The telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 3 passes through the mounting plate 2 and is slidably connected to the mounting plate 2. A limit plate 4 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 3. When the construction vehicle is carrying out construction, it is necessary to add counterweights to the construction vehicle to prevent the construction vehicle from tilting during construction. The added counterweight blocks can be hoisted through the electric telescopic rod 3. More counterweight blocks can be added through the first slot 9 set on one side of the first counterweight block 6, which makes it convenient to adjust the amount of counterweight blocks according to the needs of the site.
[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, the limiting plate 4 is snapped with a buckle 5, and the lower end of the buckle 5 is fixedly connected to a first counterweight 6. The upper surface of the first counterweight 6 is fixedly connected to a guide rod 13. A first slot 9 is opened on one side of the first counterweight 6. The guide rod 13 is installed on the first counterweight 6. When the first counterweight 6 is hoisted, the guide rod 13 can be inserted into the guide slot 16 to guide the first counterweight 6 and prevent the first counterweight 6 from being misaligned during hoisting.
[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, a second fixing screw 10 is engaged inside the first slot 9, and a second counterweight 11 is hinged to the second fixing screw 10. When the weight of the counterweight is increased, it can be fixed in the first slot 9 by the second fixing screw 10, which facilitates the fixing of the added second counterweight 11 and plays a fixing role. A second slot 12 is provided on one side of the second counterweight 11, and a third groove 17 is provided on one side of the second counterweight 11. The second slot 12 on one side of the second counterweight 11 can facilitate the addition of counterweights according to the site. The third groove 17 on one side of the second counterweight 11 can facilitate the rotation of the second fixing screw 10 inside it, which facilitates the fixing of the second counterweight 11.
[0028] like Figure 4 As shown, a first groove 7 is provided on one side of the first counterweight 6. A first fixing screw 8 is hinged inside the first groove 7. The first fixing screw 8 is engaged with the inside of the third slot 14. The first fixing screw 8 is installed in the first groove 7. The first counterweight 6 can be fixed on the mounting plate 2 by the first fixing screw 8 to prevent the engineering vehicle body 1 from falling off during operation, thus playing a fixing role.
[0029] The engineering vehicle body 1 and the electric telescopic pole 3 in this application are common electrical devices in the prior art, and their models or specific structures will not be described in detail in this application.
[0030] Working principle: When the counterweight needs to be adjusted, the electric telescopic rod 3 is activated to drive the limiting plate 4 to move upward. The limiting plate 4 disengages from the buckle 5, releasing the lock on the first counterweight block 6. At this time, the first fixing screw 8 exits from the third slot 14 of the mounting plate 2, completing the unlocking of the counterweight block. The operator can directly move the first counterweight block 6 vertically downward along the guide groove 16. After the guide rod 13 disengages from the guide groove 16, it can be removed. If it is necessary to remove the stacked second counterweight block 11, the second fixing screw 10 is rotated to disengage from the first slot 9 to separate them step by step. Align the guide rod 13 with the guide groove 16 of the mounting plate 2 and push the first counterweight block 6 upward until the buckle 5 is embedded in the limiting plate 4. At this time, the first fixing screw 8 in the first groove 7 automatically engages in the third slot 14, completing the fixation. The second counterweight block 11 is then removed through the second slot 14. The design of the second counterweight 11 and the third groove 17 allows for the stacking of more counterweight units on top of the first counterweight 6. The third groove 17 of the second counterweight 11 is aligned with the guide rod 13 of the lower counterweight and inserted. The second fixing screw 10 is rotated to engage with the first slot 9 of the lower layer, achieving a quick connection. Repeating this process can form a multi-layer stacked structure. Each layer is kept vertically aligned by the guide rod 13 and the guide slot 16. When the electric telescopic rod 3 drives the limiting plate 4 to move down and press the buckle 5, a double locking mechanism is formed. The wedge structure of the buckle 5 and the limiting plate 4 produces a self-locking effect. The interference fit between the first fixing screw 8 and the third slot 14 prevents horizontal displacement. The precise fit between the guide rod 13 and the guide slot 16 eliminates the swaying of the counterweight, ensuring the stability of the counterweight system during the operation of the engineering vehicle and allowing the weight of the counterweight to be adjusted according to the site of use.
