[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a cab frame structure and a grader, which increases the internal space of the cab frame structure and improves the driving experience.
[0004] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] A cab frame structure, applied to a grader, includes a lower frame assembly, an upper frame assembly, and connecting columns. Both the lower and upper frame assemblies are polygonal structures with the same number of sides, spaced apart vertically. The connecting columns have the same number of sides as the polygonal structures, with each column connecting to the corresponding corner of the lower and upper frame assemblies at both ends. The projection of the lower frame assembly along the vertical direction coincides with the projection of the upper frame assembly along the vertical direction, and the projected area of the upper frame assembly is larger than that of the lower frame assembly.
[0006] As an alternative, both the lower shelf assembly and the upper shelf assembly are hexagonal structures, and six connecting columns are provided.

[0010] As an optional solution, the lower frame assembly includes a lower connecting plate, which includes a central connecting portion and side connecting portions disposed at both ends of the central connecting portion. The central connecting portion connects between two C-pillars, one side connecting portion connects between one C-pillar and one B-pillar, and the other side connecting portion connects between another C-pillar and another B-pillar.

[0027] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0028] like Figures 1-2 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a cab frame structure for use on a grader.
[0029] The cab frame structure includes a lower frame assembly 1, an upper frame assembly 2, and connecting columns 3. Both the lower frame assembly 1 and the upper frame assembly 2 are polygonal structures with the same number of sides, and they are spaced apart vertically. The connecting columns 3 have the same number of sides as the polygonal structures, and each connecting column 3 connects to the corresponding corner positions of the lower frame assembly 1 and the upper frame assembly 2 to form the overall structure. The vertical projection of the lower frame assembly 1 coincides with the vertical projection of the upper frame assembly 2, and the projected area of the upper frame assembly 2 is larger than the projected area of the lower frame assembly 1. This causes all connecting columns 3 to tilt outwards in the direction from the lower frame assembly 1 to the upper frame assembly 2, giving the cab frame structure a funnel shape.
[0030] The cab frame structure increases the internal space of the cab frame structure by setting the projected area of the upper frame component 2 to be larger than that of the lower frame component 1, so that all connecting columns 3 are inclined outward along the direction from the lower frame component 1 to the upper frame component 2, thereby improving the driving comfort of the driver.
[0031] Optionally, the centers of the lower frame component 1 and the upper frame component 2 can be aligned, which is the optimal solution. They can also be left unaligned, which can still achieve the goal of increasing the internal space of the cab frame structure.
[0032] In this embodiment, both the lower frame assembly 1 and the upper frame assembly 2 are hexagonal structures, and there are six connecting columns 3. The cab frame of a grader in the prior art is generally a five-column structure. The cab frame structure with six connecting columns 3 has a more reasonable spatial layout than the five-column structure, and is more conducive to increasing the internal space of the cab frame structure.
[0033] Specifically, the six connecting pillars 3 are divided into three groups, and the three groups of connecting pillars 3 are distributed alternately from the front end to the rear end of the cab frame structure. The first group of connecting pillars 3 includes two A pillars 31 that are spaced apart along the left and right directions of the cab frame structure. The second group of connecting pillars 3 includes two B pillars 32 that are spaced apart along the left and right directions of the cab frame structure. The third group of connecting pillars 3 includes two C pillars 33 that are spaced apart along the left and right directions of the cab frame structure. The distance between the two A pillars 31 and the distance between the two C pillars 33 are both smaller than the distance between the two B pillars 32. This structure allows for a larger space in the driving and riding position, further improving driving comfort.
[0034] In order to improve the working field of vision of the grader's blade, the distance between the two A-pillars 31 is equal to the distance between the two front wheels of the grader, so that the driver and passengers no longer need to lean to the side to observe the working area of the blade during the operation of the grader.
[0035] To further improve the internal space of the cab frame structure, specifically, the lower frame assembly 1 includes a lower connecting plate 11. The lower connecting plate 11 includes a central connecting part 111 and side connecting parts 112 disposed at both ends of the central connecting part 111. The central connecting part 111 is connected between two C-pillars 33. One side connecting part 112 is connected between a C-pillar 33 and a B-pillar 32 located on one side. The other side connecting part 112 is connected between another C-pillar 33 and another B-pillar 32 located on the other side. Both side connecting parts 112 are configured as arc-shaped structures that bulge outwards. The arc-shaped structure further improves the utilization rate of the internal space of the cab frame structure.
[0036] Furthermore, the lower frame assembly 1 also includes a first lower connecting rod 12 and two second lower connecting rods 13. The first lower connecting rod 12 connects between the two A-pillars 31, one second lower connecting rod 13 connects between the A-pillar 31 and B-pillar 32 on one side, and the other second lower connecting rod 13 connects between the A-pillar 31 and B-pillar 32 on the other side. This structure is simple, has low manufacturing cost, and is easy to assemble.
[0037] Optionally, the upper frame assembly 2 includes a first upper connecting rod 21, two second upper connecting rods 22, two third upper connecting rods 23, and a fourth upper connecting rod 24. The first upper connecting rod 21 is connected between the two A-pillars 31. One second upper connecting rod 22 is connected between one A-pillar 31 and one B-pillar 32 on one side. Another second upper connecting rod 22 is connected between another A-pillar 31 and another B-pillar 32 on the other side. One third upper connecting rod 23 is connected between one B-pillar 32 and one C-pillar 33 on one side. Another third upper connecting rod 23 is connected between another B-pillar 32 and another C-pillar 33 on the other side. The fourth upper connecting rod 24 is connected between the two C-pillars 33. This structure is simple, has low manufacturing cost, and is easy to assemble.
[0038] Furthermore, the upper frame assembly 2 also includes a middle crossbeam 25, a front longitudinal beam 26, and a rear longitudinal beam 27. The middle crossbeam 25 connects between the two B-pillars 32, the front longitudinal beam 26 connects between the first upper connecting rod 21 and the middle crossbeam 25, and the rear longitudinal beam 27 connects between the fourth upper connecting rod 24 and the middle crossbeam 25. Two rear longitudinal beams 27 can be provided, spaced apart. This structure improves the structural strength of the cab frame structure.
[0039] Furthermore, a first reinforcing rod 28 is provided between each of the two second upper connecting rods 22 and the front longitudinal beam 26, with both ends of the first reinforcing rod 28 connected to the front longitudinal beam 26 and the second upper connecting rod 22, respectively; a second reinforcing rod 29 is provided between the first reinforcing rod 28 and the middle cross beam 25, with both ends of the second reinforcing rod 29 connected to the first reinforcing rod 28 and the middle cross beam 25, respectively; a third reinforcing rod 210 is provided between the two rear longitudinal beams 27, with both ends of the third reinforcing rod 210 connected to the two rear longitudinal beams 27, respectively; and a fourth reinforcing rod 211 is provided between the third reinforcing rod 210 and the middle cross beam 25, with both ends of the fourth reinforcing rod 211 connected to the third reinforcing rod 210 and the middle cross beam 25, respectively. By providing the above-mentioned reinforcing rods, the structural strength of the cab frame structure is increased.
[0040] Optionally, the connecting column 3 is made of special-shaped steel pipe. The connecting column 3 is specially made according to the requirements, that is, the A column 31, B column 32 and C column 33 are all made of special-shaped steel pipe, which effectively improves the strength of the cab frame structure and can meet the requirements of the 40T anti-rollover capability of large mining graders.
[0041] This utility model also provides a grader, including the above-mentioned cab frame structure.
[0042] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
