Description

1 TARIFF Configurable control mechanism for motor grader machines. TECHNICAL FIELD The invention relates generally to control systems for construction machinery. The invention specifically refers to a piano-type and 10-inch motor grader control system. configuration that allows circular type control systems to be used on the same mechanism It relates to a control mechanism with a controllable structure. STATE OF THE ART Today, motor grader machines use hydraulic control systems via hydraulic valves. It ensures the functionality of the hydraulic functions that are intended to be controlled. Existing Applications include different hydraulic control systems such as levers, joysticks, and finger joysticks. Generally, hydraulic control systems are either piano type or rotary type. It is configured and different machine manufacturers choose one of the two. Piano type control 20 In the system, the lever-operated control levers move straight around the steering wheel to the right and left. In the other system, the lever-operated control levers move circularly around the steering wheel. They are positioned and are called circular type. Joystick control systems, on the other hand, It can have different configurations depending on the manufacturer's preference. With current technology, operators use these piano and rotary control systems, which have different designs. They have difficulty using / controlling each machine due to their inability to adapt. They are attracting attention. Because these different control systems are adopted differently by each user, Operators are reluctant to use different hydraulic control configurations. This situation, Reducing the prevalence of motor grader use creates bottlenecks in the rental machinery sector. 30 It creates problems in creating and finding operators. In the current state of the art, research on the subject has revealed some findings regarding control systems. Applications have been encountered. Document number WO9209756A1 concerns the operation of a hydraulic excavator. It is related to the system. This document describes the function of the control levers, their connection to multiple valves. 35 This has been achieved. The aim is to allow multiple functions to be performed with the same arm. in the mechanism, the arms are rotated at specific angles in a connecting mechanism 2 Its position and function are changed. However, this mechanism only allows for this. The function of the control lever is being modified to accommodate different types of control systems. No solution is offered. Document number US3965771A is for an adjustable hydraulic control system for a motor grader. This document describes the lever-type control located on the control console of the motor grader. A mechanism is described that allows the position of its arms to be adjusted. This The mechanism shows a rotatable bearing to which the control lever is attached. However, this It ensures that the bed control arm moves along the same axis. This 10 The document also contains information about the conversion of control arms to different types of control systems. It is not available. In conclusion, control systems of construction machinery, and especially motor graders, Improvements are being made, therefore 15 will eliminate the disadvantages mentioned above. And new structures are needed that will provide solutions to the existing systems.
