They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0035] Example 1:

[0036] Please see Figure 1-8 A chain link pin wear-resistant sleeve disassembly and assembly device includes a hydraulic drive device, an ejector mechanism, a positioning platform, and a waste collection device. The chain link 5 to be processed is installed on the positioning platform. The hydraulic drive device includes two hydraulic cylinders 11, which respectively push two sets of ejector mechanisms to enter the two pin holes of the chain link 5 installed on the positioning platform, thereby ejecting the wear-resistant sleeve 6 from the pin holes and realizing the disassembly of the wear-resistant sleeve 6. The disassembled wear-resistant sleeve 6 is recycled through the waste collection device.

[0037] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the ejector mechanism includes an ejector rod 21 and a laser-clad tungsten carbide wear-resistant liner 22 installed at the working end of the ejector rod 21. The end of the ejector rod 21 away from the liner 22 is connected to a hydraulic cylinder 11. The ejector rod 21 has a built-in stroke limiter, which includes a limit nut and a contact sensor. When the contact sensor detects that the wear-resistant sleeve has completed its displacement, the limit nut triggers the hydraulic cylinder 11 to drive the ejector rod 21 to return.

[0038] like Figure 4-6As shown, the positioning platform includes a platform base 31, and two positioning blocks 32, 33, rollers 34, guide rails, and several V-shaped support seats 35 mounted on the platform base 31. Positioning blocks 32 and 33 are detachable modular designs. The rollers 34 include several free rollers with their axes perpendicular to the pushing direction of the chain links 5 and their surfaces covered with ceramic to reduce frictional resistance, improve positioning efficiency, and reduce manpower consumption when pushing the chain links 5 to the processing station. The guide rails are located on both sides of the platform base 31 and are laser-calibrated to ensure that the straightness error is <0.1mm / m. The V-shaped support seats 35 are equipped with angle fine-tuning screws. The opening degree of the V-shaped support seats 35 is changed by the angle fine-tuning screws to compensate for the edge wear of the chain links 5. When the chain links 5 are pushed in, the inclined surface of the V-shaped support seats 35 automatically guides the edge of the chain links 5 to be centered, thereby constraining the jumping displacement of the chain links 5.

[0039] One end of the chain link 5 is an open end, and the other end is a closed end. The open end of the chain link 5 has a receiving cavity, and both the open and closed ends have pin holes. Figure 7 As shown, the open and closed ends of multiple chain pieces 5 are connected in sequence and then connected with pins to form a chain.

[0040] After the chain link 5 is pushed into the positioning platform via the guide rail, the V-shaped support 35 automatically clamps the edges of the open and closed ends of the chain link 5. Positioning block 1 32 is installed on the side of the chain link 5 away from the top rod 21; positioning block 2 33 is embedded in the receiving cavity of the open end of the chain link 5; the two positioning blocks 1 32 are respectively fitted and installed against the open and closed ends of the chain link 5. Positioning blocks 1 32, positioning blocks 2 33 and V-shaped support 35 match the structure of the chain link 5 and the platform base 31 so that when the chain link 5 is pushed to the work position, the V-shaped support 35, positioning blocks 1 32 and positioning blocks 2 33 together restrict the displacement of the chain link 5, thereby forming three-dimensional positioning.

[0041] like Figure 8 As shown, the waste collection device includes a reinforcing rib plate 41, a discharge port 42, a collection cart, a viewing window, and a set of casters. The reinforcing rib plate 41 is located on the positioning platform near the ground. The discharge port 42 is opened on the reinforcing rib plate 41, and the position of the discharge port 42 matches the position of the pin hole of the chain link 5 so that the detached wear-resistant sleeve 6 can enter the discharge port 42. A movable waste collection cart is arranged below the discharge port 42. The collection cart is equipped with a viewing window for observing the collection situation. The bottom of the collection cart is equipped with a set of stainless steel rust-proof casters, which can achieve easy transportation under full load. The collection cart and the discharge port 42 adopt a funnel-type docking design to ensure that the ejected waste wear-resistant sleeve 6 is automatically recycled.

[0042] When removing the wear-resistant sleeve 6, the chain link 5 is pushed into the positioning platform along the guide rail. The V-shaped support seat 35 automatically clamps the edge of the chain link 5. Positioning block 1 32 and positioning block 2 33 respectively restrict the open end and closed end of the chain link 5. The hydraulic cylinder 11 drives the push rod 21 to advance. When the contact sensor detects that the wear-resistant sleeve 6 has completed its displacement, the limit nut triggers the hydraulic cylinder 11 to return. The waste wear-resistant sleeve 6 falls into the collection vehicle through the discharge port 42.

[0043] When installing the wear-resistant sleeve 6, insert the new wear-resistant sleeve 6 into the working end of the push rod 21, and reverse the operation of the hydraulic cylinder 11. The new wear-resistant sleeve 6 is pressed into the pin hole, while the old wear-resistant sleeve 6 is pushed out.

[0044] Among them, the hydraulic cylinder 11 can be a high-thrust hydraulic cylinder with a rated output of 10 tons and a stroke of 250m; the ejection actuator adopts a customized alloy ejector rod 21, the working end of the ejector rod 21 is laser-clad with a tungsten carbide wear-resistant liner plate 2 with a thickness ≥3mm, the stroke limiter adopts a mechanical stroke limiter, and the dovetail groove locking mechanism is a magnetic suction sorting component.

[0045] The platform base 31 of the positioning platform is made of high-rigidity 16MnCr5 alloy steel with a hardness of HRC45 and a deformation load resistance of ≥15 tons; the positioning block 1 32 and positioning block 2 33 are made of hard alloy with a repeatability accuracy of ±0.1mm; the V-shaped support seat 35 is equipped with an angle fine-tuning screw to compensate for the wear of the chain link 5 edge by ±5mm; the friction coefficient of the ceramic-coated roller 34 is ≤0.05; the straightness error of the guide rail laser calibration is <0.1mm / m, and the pushing deviation angle of the chain link 5 is <0.5°.

[0046] The waste collection device has a 60mm diameter discharge port 42 with a polyurethane noise reduction layer inside; the collection vehicle and the discharge port 42 have a 60° taper angle in a funnel-shaped docking to ensure zero splashing of waste.

[0047] This utility model achieves the disassembly and replacement of wear-resistant sleeves by using a hydraulic cylinder 11 with dual-mode switching. The hydraulic dual-mode switching time is less than 1 second (traditional equipment requires 15 minutes for reassembly), the single-piece operation time is reduced from 90 seconds to 12 seconds, and the production line downtime is reduced by 86%, which greatly improves the disassembly and assembly efficiency.

[0048] Through the synergistic effect of the V-shaped support 35, positioning block 1 32 and positioning block 2 33, the positioning accuracy has achieved a breakthrough, with the three-dimensional spatial positioning error ≤ ±0.2mm (compared to ±5mm by traditional methods), and the damage rate of the chain link 5 substrate has been reduced from 15% to 0.3%. Through the synergistic effect of the idler roller 34 and the guide rail, the pushing resistance has been reduced by 82% (measured from 350N to 63N), which has improved the positioning accuracy while reducing the energy consumption required during the pushing process.

[0049] Example 2:

[0050] Please see Figure 1-10 According to the chain link pin wear-resistant sleeve disassembly and assembly device described in Embodiment 1, such as Figure 9 , 10 As shown, unlike Embodiment 1, the hydraulic drive device includes only one hydraulic cylinder 11, which drives the push rod 21 to sequentially push into the pin holes at the open and closed ends of the chain link 5.

[0051] Example 3:

[0052] Please see Figure 1-11 According to the chain link pin wear-resistant sleeve disassembly and assembly device described in Embodiment 1, such as Figure 8 As shown, the hydraulic drive device also includes a proportional control valve 12 and a small mobile hydraulic station 13. One end of the proportional control valve 12 is connected to the small mobile hydraulic station 13, and the small mobile hydraulic station 13 drives the hydraulic cylinder 11, which in turn pushes the push rod 21.

[0053] Chain link 5 is pushed into the positioning platform, V-shaped support seat 35 clamps chain link 5, positioning block 1 32 and positioning block 2 33 limit chain link 5, and top rod 21 pushes wear-resistant sleeve 6 in the pin hole of chain link 5, and wear-resistant sleeve 6 falls into the discharge port 42.

[0054] The proportional control valve 12 adopts a foot-operated integrated pressure regulating module, with an adjustable output force of 1-10 tons.

[0055] Includes the following steps:

[0056] S1. Push chain link 5 along the guide rail;

[0057] S2. V-shaped support seat 35 clamps the edge of chain piece 5;

[0058] S3. Positioning block 1 32 and positioning block 2 33 position chain piece 5;
