DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0045] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0046] The arm barrel of the telescopic arm of the present application will be described below in conjunction with Figs. 1 to 11.

[0047] As shown in Figs. 1 to 11, the arm barrel of the telescopic arm provided in the embodiments of the present application comprises an arm barrel body 1, a first sliding block 2 and a first connecting mechanism.

[0048] Specifically, the first sliding block 2 is arranged at at least one end of the arm barrel body 1, and the first sliding block 2 is fixed to the arm barrel body 1 through the first connecting mechanism.

[0049] For the telescopic arm capable of realizing multi-stage telescopic expansion, the telescopic arm has a plurality of arm barrels, and in any two adjacent arm barrels, the outer side wall of the tail end of the inner one is provided with the first sliding block 2, and the inner side wall of the head end of the outer one is provided with the first sliding block 2. In each arm barrel of the telescopic arm, only the inner side wall of the head end of the outermost arm barrel is provided with the first sliding block 2, and only the outer side wall of the tail end of the innermost arm barrel is provided with the first sliding block 2.

[0050] In the embodiment, the arm barrel body 1 has at least a first side wall 3 and a second side wall 4 arranged at an angle. The first sliding block 2 at least includes a first sliding plate part 5, a second sliding plate part 6 and an arc transition part 7, and generally, the first sliding plate part 5 and the second sliding plate part 6 are arranged at an angle. The first sliding plate part 5 is arranged opposite to the first side wall 3, and the second sliding plate part 6 is arranged opposite to the second side wall 4. The first sliding plate part 5 overlaps the first side wall 3, and the second sliding plate part 6 overlaps the second side wall 4. The contact area between the first sliding block 2 and the arm barrel body 1 is large, and the stress effect is good.

[0051] The arc transition part 7 is arranged between the first sliding plate part 5 and the second sliding plate part 6, and the first sliding plate part 5, the arc transition part 7 and the second sliding plate part 6 are formed in an integrated structure, and the self-rigidity is strong.

[0052] In this way, the first sliding block 2 is arranged in a bending shape in an integrated structure, the self-rigidity and the carrying capacity are improved, the first sliding block 2 overlaps the two side walls of the arm barrel body 1 at the same time, the contact area between the first sliding block 2 and the arm barrel body 1 is increased, the stress effect of the first sliding block 2 and the arm barrel body 1 is improved, which is conducive to improving the carrying capacity of the arm barrel, and the arc transition part 7 can well adapt to the cooperation with the surface of the adjacent arm barrel, thereby solving the problems of poor carrying capacity of the sliding block and poor stress of the arm barrel in the related art.

[0053] It should be noted that the first sliding block 2 can be integrally formed by casting, forging and the like, or the first sliding plate part 5, the second sliding plate part 6 and the arc transition part 7 can be first machined, and then the first sliding plate part 5 and the arc transition part 7 are fixedly connected together by welding or the like, and the second sliding plate part 6 and the arc transition part 7 are fixedly connected together by welding or the like.

[0054] It should be further noted that the arm barrel body 1 only needs to have the first side wall 3 and the second side wall 4 arranged at an angle, and the positions of the first side wall 3 and the second side wall 4 arranged at an angle are not limited. Specifically, the cross-sectional shape of the arm barrel body 1 can be but is not limited to a quadrilateral, a hexagon or an octagon, and the number of sides of the cross-sectional shape of the arm barrel body 1 is not limited in the application, as long as the arm barrel body 1 has the first side wall 3 and the second side wall 4 arranged at an angle.

[0055] The first slider 2 comprises at least a first sliding plate part 5, a second sliding plate part 6 and an arc transition part 7. In some cases, the first slider 2 can further comprise a third sliding plate part, which is arranged on the side of the second sliding plate part 6 away from the first sliding plate part 5, and an arc transition part is arranged between the third sliding plate part and the second sliding plate part 6.

[0056] It can be understood that the first slider 2 in the embodiment comprises at least two sliding plate parts, and an arc transition part is arranged between adjacent sliding plate parts. When the cross-sectional shape of the arm cylinder body 1 is polygonal, the number of sliding plate parts included in each first slider 2 can be appropriately increased.

[0057] It should be further explained that the arm cylinder body 1 comprises a cylinder body and an end flange, wherein the cylinder body is formed by a bending process, and after the cylinder body is processed, the end flange is fixed to the end of the cylinder body. The cylinder body formed by the bending process has an arc surface between the first side wall and the second side wall, and the arc transition part 7 of the first slider 2 in the embodiment can well adapt to the surface of the arm cylinder body 1 where the first slider 2 is located, and also well adapt to the surface of the adjacent arm cylinder body 1.

[0058] The number of first sliders 2 arranged on the arm cylinder body 1 is not specifically limited in the present application, and the number of first sliders 2 can be determined according to the number of sides of the cross-sectional shape of the arm cylinder body 1.

[0059] In the embodiment of the present application, the arm cylinder of the telescopic arm further comprises an adjusting mechanism, which is arranged between the first slider 2 and the arm cylinder body 1, and is used to adjust the distance between the first sliding plate part 5 and the first side wall 3 and the distance between the second sliding plate part 6 and the second side wall 4, that is, to adjust the relative position of the first slider 2 and the arm cylinder body 1.

[0060] By adjusting the relative position of the first slider 2 and the arm cylinder body 1, the processing errors of the arm cylinder body 1 and the first slider 2 can be adapted, and the first slider 2 on the arm cylinder can be ensured to be in sliding contact with another arm cylinder.

[0061] The adjusting mechanism comprises at least a gasket 8 and a fastening assembly. The gasket 8 is optionally arranged between the first sliding plate part 5 and the first side wall 3, or the gasket 8 is optionally arranged between the second sliding plate part 6 and the second side wall 4.

[0062] Specifically, shims 8 can be provided only between the first sliding plate portion 5 and the first side wall 3. When adjusting the distance between the first sliding plate portion 5 and the first side wall 3, and the distance between the second sliding plate portion 6 and the second side wall 4, the number of shims 8 between the first sliding plate portion 5 and the first side wall 3 can be adjusted. Alternatively, shims 8 can be provided only between the second sliding plate portion 6 and the second side wall 4. When adjusting the distance between the first sliding plate portion 5 and the first side wall 3, and the distance between the second sliding plate portion 6 and the second side wall 4, the number of shims 8 between the second sliding plate portion 6 and the second side wall 4 can be adjusted simultaneously. Alternatively, shims 8 can be provided between both the first sliding plate portion 5 and the first side wall 3, and the second sliding plate portion 6 and the second side wall 4. When adjusting the distance between the first sliding plate portion 5 and the first side wall 3, and the distance between the second sliding plate portion 6 and the second side wall 4, the number of shims 8 between the first sliding plate portion 5 and the first side wall 3, and the number of shims 8 between the second sliding plate portion 6 and the second side wall 4, must be adjusted simultaneously.

[0063] After adjusting the required number of shims 8, each shim 8 is fixedly connected to at least one of the first slider 2 and the arm cylinder body 1 using fastening components to ensure the positional stability of the shims 8.

[0064] This application does not specify the number of shims 8 included in the adjusting mechanism; the more shims 8 included in the adjusting mechanism, the stronger the adjusting capability of the adjusting mechanism. Generally, the adjusting mechanism includes at least two shims 8.

[0065] In this embodiment, the relative position of the first slider 2 and the boom body 1 is adjusted by adjusting the number of shims 8. The contact area between the shims 8 and the boom body 1 and the contact area between the shims 8 and the first slider 2 are large, the force-bearing effect of the boom body 1 and the first slider 2 is better, and the stability of the adjustment mechanism and the first slider 2 is stronger. Even when the telescopic boom is subjected to eccentric loads, such as when the telescopic boom is connected to the side arm, the problem of boom tilting can be effectively avoided.

[0066] When the shim 8 is only provided between the first sliding plate portion 5 and the first side wall 3, other adjustment structures are needed between the second sliding plate portion 6 and the second side wall 4 to accommodate changes in the distance between them and to support the second sliding plate portion 6. Similarly, when the shim 8 is only provided between the second sliding plate portion 6 and the second side wall 4, other adjustment structures are needed between the first sliding plate portion 5 and the first side wall 3 to accommodate changes in the distance between them and to support the first sliding plate portion 5.

[0067] The following description uses the case where only the shim 8 is provided between the first slide plate 5 and the first side wall 3 as an example. In this case, the adjustment mechanism also includes an adjustment rod 9, which is disposed on the boom cylinder body 1 and passes through the second side wall 4 of the boom cylinder body 1. The first end and the second end of the adjustment rod 9 are located on opposite sides of the second side wall 4, respectively.

[0068] The first end of the adjusting rod 9 is used to abut against the second sliding plate 6. The second sliding plate 6 can be supported by the interaction between the end of the adjusting rod 9 and the second sliding plate 6.

[0069] The distance between the first end of the adjusting rod 9 and the second side wall 4 is adjustable. By adjusting the distance between the first end of the adjusting rod 9 and the second side wall 4, the position of the second sliding plate part 6 can be adjusted and the second sliding plate part 6 can be supported.

[0070] Specifically, the adjusting rod 9 can be threadedly connected to the boom body 1. By screwing the second end of the adjusting rod 9, the distance between the first end of the adjusting rod 9 and the second side wall 4 can be adjusted, which is convenient to operate.

[0071] After adjusting the relative position of the adjusting rod 9 and the boom body 1, to ensure the stability of their relative position, the adjusting mechanism also includes a locking nut 25. Each adjusting rod 9 is equipped with a corresponding locking nut 25, which is located at the second end of the adjusting rod 9 and is threadedly connected to it. The threaded connection between the locking nut 25 and the adjusting rod 9, as well as the threaded connection between the boom body 1 and the adjusting rod 9, cooperate to achieve a double-nut locking effect, effectively preventing misalignment of the adjusting rod 9 due to loosening.

[0072] Each first slider 2 is provided with at least two adjusting rods 9, which are spaced apart on the arm cylinder body 1. In this way, the adjustment mechanism can support at least two positions of the second slide plate 6, which can further improve the stability of the first slider 2 and optimize the force distribution effect of the first slider 2.

[0073] In a further embodiment, the adjustment mechanism also includes an anti-loosening washer 26. At least two adjusting rods 9 are correspondingly provided with one anti-loosening washer 26. The anti-loosening washer 26 has at least two through holes for each adjusting rod 9 to pass through, as shown in Figure 7. After the anti-loosening washer 26 is installed on each adjusting rod 9, the interaction between the anti-loosening washer 26 and the adjusting rod 9 restricts the rotation of the anti-loosening washer 26 relative to the adjusting rod 9. The anti-loosening washer 26 is disposed between the locking nut 25 and the arm cylinder body 1. The anti-loosening washer has a bent plate. After tightening the locking nut 25, the bent plate is bent until it contacts the side of the locking nut 25. The outer surface of the locking nut 25 is a hexagonal prism. Utilizing the interaction between the bent plate and the side of the locking nut 25, the rotation of the locking nut 25 relative to the adjusting rod 9 can be restricted, thereby further tightening the adjusting rod 9 and further increasing the difficulty of loosening the adjusting rod 9.

[0074] In this embodiment of the application, the first connecting mechanism includes a base plate 10, a limiting plate 11, and a first connecting member 12. The base plate 10 is used to be disposed between the first slider 2 and the arm cylinder body 1, and the base plate 10 is fixedly connected to the first slider 2. The base plate 10 can support and fix the first slider 2. By fixing the base plate 10 to the arm cylinder body 1, the relative fixation of the first slider 2 and the arm cylinder body 1 can be achieved.

[0075] In a specific embodiment, the base plate 10 includes at least a first plate and a second plate. The first plate contacts the first sliding plate portion 5 of the first slider 2, and the second plate contacts the second sliding plate portion 6 of the first slider 2. The first plate and the second plate are smoothly connected. Specifically, the base plate 10 can be integrally formed using a plate through a bending process.

[0076] For the connection structure between the base plate 10 and the first slider 2, a through hole can be provided on the second plate of the base plate 10, and a threaded hole can be provided on the second sliding plate part 6 of the first slider 2. A screw or bolt can be threadedly connected to the first slider 2 after passing through the base plate 10.

[0077] A limiting hole is provided on the base plate 10, and a limiting protrusion 13 is provided at one end of the limiting plate 11, which can enter and exit the limiting hole. The first connecting member 12 detachably connects the other end of the limiting plate 11 to the end of the boom body 1.

[0078] Similarly, a limiting protrusion can be set on the base plate 10, and a limiting hole can be set at one end of the limiting plate 11 to ensure that the limiting protrusion can enter and exit the limiting hole.

[0079] The relative position of the limiting plate 11 and the arm cylinder body 1 is fixed. Through the interaction between the limiting protrusion 13 and the limiting hole, the relative displacement between the limiting plate 11 and the bottom plate 10 can be limited along the axial direction of the arm cylinder body 1, thereby ensuring the stability of the position of the bottom plate 10 and the slider along the axial direction of the arm cylinder body 1.

[0080] It should be noted that the side of the first slider 2 away from the arm cylinder body 1 is used for sliding engagement with the arm cylinder body 1 of another arm cylinder, and the arm cylinder body 1 of the other arm cylinder can restrict the movement of the first slider 2 in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the arm cylinder body 1. Understandably, through the above-mentioned connecting mechanism, the relative stability between the first slider 2 and the arm cylinder body 1 can be well ensured.

[0081] In this embodiment, a threaded hole is provided on the end face of the arm cylinder body 1 for the detachable connection structure between the limiting plate 11 and the end of the arm cylinder body 1, and a through hole 17 is provided on the limiting plate 11. The first connector 12 passes through the through hole 17 and the threaded hole to be threadedly connected to the end face of the arm cylinder body 1.

[0082] The first connector 12 may be, but is not limited to, screws, bolts, etc.

[0083] In this embodiment, the through hole 17 is configured as a strip-shaped hole, and the extending direction of the through hole 17 is parallel to the extending direction of the first sliding plate portion 5 relative to the second sliding plate portion 6. That is, the extending direction of the through hole 17 is parallel to the surface of the first sliding plate portion 5. The first connecting member 12 can pass through the limiting plate 11 at any position of the through hole 17.

[0084] When adjusting the distance between the first sliding plate 5 and the first side wall 3, if the distance between the first sliding plate 5 and the first side wall 3 is different, the through hole 17 on the limiting plate 11 can overlap with the threaded hole on the arm barrel body 1, ensuring that the first connecting piece 12 can be threadedly connected to the arm barrel body 1.

[0085] In this embodiment, a first extension 14 is provided on the base plate 10, and the first extension 14 is suspended relative to the end of the boom body 1. For example, when the base plate 10 and the first slider 2 are installed on the inner side wall of the boom body 1, the first extension 14 is located outside the boom body 1.

[0086] The limiting hole is provided in the first extension 14. When the limiting plate 11 is located outside the arm cylinder body 1, the limiting protrusion 13 can be inserted into the limiting hole for easy operation.

[0087] The limiting hole can be set as a through hole. The limiting protrusion 13 of the limiting plate 11 can penetrate the base plate 10. The limiting protrusion 13 is located on the side of the base plate 10 close to the first slider 2. The limiting protrusion 13 abuts against the first slider 2, which can limit the first slider 2. It can also reduce the shear force on the connection structure between the base plate 10 and the first slider 2 when two adjacent arm cylinders slide relative to each other.

[0088] To ensure the stability of the gasket 8, it can be fixedly connected to the base plate 10. By using the limiting plate 11 to fix the base plate 10 and the boom body 1, the gasket 8 and the boom body 1 are also fixed to each other.

[0089] At this time, a second extension 15 is provided on the gasket 8. When fixedly mounted on the base plate 10, the second extension 15 overlaps with the first extension 14. The fastening assembly includes a fastener 16, which connects the first extension 14 and the second extension 15 together. The connection between the first extension 14 and the second extension 15 can be achieved from the outside of the boom body 1, making operation convenient.

[0090] The fastener 16 includes a bolt and a nut. Both the first extension 14 and the second extension 15 are provided with through holes. The bolt passes through the first extension 14 and the second extension 15 and is then connected to the nut.

[0091] In this embodiment, a clearance space is provided on the limiting plate 11 to allow the second extension 15 to extend to the side of the limiting plate 11 away from the first slider 2, while the edge of the gasket 8 near the limiting plate 11 abuts against the limiting plate 11. Through the interaction between the limiting plate 11 and the gasket 8, misalignment of the gasket 8 can be prevented.

[0092] In addition to the first sidewall 3 and the second sidewall 4, the boom body 1 also has a third sidewall 28. In this embodiment of the application, the boom of the telescopic boom also includes a second slider 18 and a second connecting mechanism.

[0097] Referring to Figure 1, the cross-sectional shape of the boom body 1 is set to octagon. The lower and upper side walls of the boom body 1 in Figure 1 are the third side walls 28, and the lower side wall of the boom body 1 serves as the force-bearing surface of the boom. The left and right side walls of the boom body 1 in Figure 1 are the aforementioned second side walls 4, and the first side wall 3 is located between the second side wall 4 and the third side wall 28. The positions and quantities of the first slider 2 and the second slider 18 on the boom body 1 are shown in Figure 1.

[0098] It should be noted that, alternatively, only the first slider 2 can be provided on the boom body 1 without the second slider 18. By increasing the number of first sliders 2, the stress on the boom body 1 can be improved.

[0099] In this embodiment, both the first slider 2 and the second slider 18 have a lubrication structure. The lubrication structures on the first slider 2 and the second slider 18 are the same. The following description uses the lubrication structure on the first slider 2 as an example.

[0100] In this embodiment, a receiving cavity is formed inside the first slider 2 to hold lubricating grease. An grease inlet 23 is provided on the first slider 2 for adding lubricating grease into the receiving cavity. An oil outlet 24 is provided on the side of the first slider 2 away from the first sidewall 3 and the second sidewall 4, allowing lubricating grease to flow to the surface of the first slider 2 away from the first sidewall 3 and the second sidewall 4. During the extension and retraction of the telescopic arm, the lubricating grease can reduce friction.

[0101] An oil passage is provided on the surface of the first slider 2 away from the first sidewall 3 and the second sidewall 4 to facilitate the flow of grease and ensure lubrication effect.

[0102] The aforementioned grease nipple 23 only allows grease to flow into the receiving cavity of the first slider 2. In other words, the grease nipple 23 only allows grease to be added into the receiving cavity, and the grease nipple 23 itself can prevent the grease in the receiving cavity from leaking out.

[0103] The above-mentioned grease may be, but is not limited to, butter, and the above-mentioned grease nipple 23 may be, but is not limited to, a grease nipple.
