Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of unmanned vehicle technology, specifically a vehicle wheel end mounting mechanism that can be used in unmanned anode transfer vehicles in the electrolytic aluminum industry, and can also be extended to other product fields. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the anode transfer vehicles used in the electrolytic aluminum industry have a wheel-end mounting mechanism where the wheel axle head is directly welded to the frame, then the various wheel-end components are sequentially installed onto the axle head, and finally the wheel is installed with the wheel-end assembly. This mechanism suffers from low dimensional accuracy of the welded axle head on the frame, low assembly efficiency, and poor assembly precision, affecting the vehicle's driving performance. In addition, this mechanism is inconvenient to maintain, and damage to the axle head can lead to the inability to install wheel-end components, resulting in the risk of scrapping the vehicle frame and high vehicle operating costs. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a vehicle wheel end mounting mechanism, which mainly solves the problems of low dimensional accuracy of the welded axle head of the existing frame, low assembly efficiency, poor assembly accuracy, and inconvenient maintenance, resulting in high vehicle use costs and affecting vehicle driving.

[0004] The technical solution provided by this utility model is: a vehicle wheel end mounting mechanism, including a frame and a wheel, wherein the frame is provided with a wheel end fixing bracket; the four elongated holes on the connecting plate assembly are assembly process holes, which fix the connecting plate assembly, the mounting plate, and the wheel end to form a sub-assembly, and the sub-assembly is fixed to the wheel fixing bracket; a wheel is provided on the wheel end.

[0005] Furthermore, the connecting plate assembly is bolted onto the wheel end fixing bracket.

[0006] Furthermore, the connecting plate assembly, mounting plate, and wheel end are fixed by bolts.

[0007] Furthermore, the wheel end fixing bracket, connecting plate assembly, and wheel end mounting plate are circular, irregular, or other irregular shapes.

[0008] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. The connecting plate assembly is fixed to the wheel end bracket and the mounting plate is fixed to the wheel end with bolts, which makes disassembly convenient; 2. The connecting plate assembly, wheel end mounting plate, wheel end, and wheel are all fixed with bolts and connected to the frame through wheel fixing brackets; the existing manual driving anode transfer vehicle wheel end axle head welding process to the frame has been eliminated; assembly efficiency and wheel end assembly accuracy have been greatly improved; at the same time, the risk of frame scrapping due to damage to wheel end axle head parts has been eliminated. 3. By using the four elongated holes on the connecting plate assembly as assembly process holes, the connecting plate assembly, mounting plate and wheel end can be assembled into a sub-assembly by bolts. Then the sub-assembly is fixed to the wheel mounting bracket by bolts, which is equivalent to connecting the sub-assembly to the frame. Finally, the wheel is fixed to the wheel end by bolts; disassembly is convenient. 4. High assembly precision, convenient disassembly and maintenance, and reduced vehicle operating costs.

[0011] To better understand and implement this invention, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0012] like Figure 1 , 2As shown in Figures 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8, a vehicle wheel mounting mechanism includes a frame 6 and a wheel 5. A wheel end fixing bracket 1 is welded onto the frame 6. A wheel end 4 is fixedly mounted on a connecting plate assembly 2 via a mounting plate 3. Four elongated holes on the connecting plate assembly 2 serve as assembly process holes, which are aligned with four sets of fixing bolts on the wheel end mounting plate 3 to facilitate the removal of the wheel end 4 through the elongated holes on the inner side of the connecting plate assembly 2. The connecting plate assembly 2, the mounting plate 3, and the wheel end 4 are fixed to each other with bolts, first assembling them into a sub-assembly, and then fixing the sub-assembly to the wheel fixing bracket 1 with bolts. The wheel end fixing bracket 1, the connecting plate assembly 2, and the wheel end mounting plate 3 can be circular, irregular, or other irregular shapes. Finally, the wheel 5 is fixed to the wheel end 4 with bolts. Ultimately, the wheel 5 is connected to the frame 6, completing the installation of the vehicle running mechanism.

[0013] This utility model discloses a vehicle wheel end mounting mechanism that allows for complete disassembly and separation of the wheel and wheel end components from the vehicle frame. Specifically: loosen the connecting nut between the wheel 5 and wheel end 4, remove the wheel 5, and perform maintenance, repair, or replacement; loosen the connecting bolt between the wheel end mounting plate 3 and wheel end 4 through the elongated hole on the connecting plate assembly 2 inside the vehicle frame 6, remove the wheel end 4, and perform maintenance, repair, or replacement of the wheel end 4 components; the wheel end fixing bracket 1 is welded to the vehicle frame 6; the connecting plate assembly 2 and the wheel end fixing bracket 1, and the connecting plate assembly 2 and the wheel end mounting plate 3 are all fixed with bolts. Loosening the connecting bolts allows for complete separation of all related components from the vehicle frame 6 and its components, enabling independent maintenance, repair, or replacement of each component and avoiding the risk of damage to the vehicle frame 6 and other components.
