Definitions
- the invention relates to a quick-change device for earthmoving vehicles for replacing work tools, which are releasably connected to the boom of the earthmoving machine about a horizontal axis with this adapter, which is designed as fixed claws and is mounted as a displaceable locking bolt, with coupling elements that correspond to them on Appliances are assigned, of which the one coupling member has an opening for the entry of the sliding coupling members locking plate and the other coupling member forms a coupling axis at least partially encompassed by the claws, the bracing between the adapter and the implement taking place via the abutment surfaces of the coupling members.
- EP-A 0 273 828 shows such a fixed and displaceable coupling member quick change device. Since space is required for pivoting and pivoting the adapter into the implement relative to the locking plate, this is correspondingly far away from the coupling axis to be gripped by the claws, so that when coupling only the claws with the coupling axis and the bolts with the openings in the locking plate are clamped. Due to this design of the coupling members, only a uniaxial bracing between the implement and the adapter on the boom takes place via the abutment surfaces of the coupling members. However, such a connection is not sufficiently rigid for heavy earthmoving operations.
- the coupling members fixed to the housing have a coupling axis on the implement and these partially comprehensive receiving claws on the boom
- the displaceably mounted coupling element being a spring-loaded wedge which interacts with the fixed coupling element arranged on the implement in the form of a hook
- the wedge can be locked outside the active position by a locking device which is triggered during the coupling process between the boom and the implement, so that for the purpose of locking the wedge slides under the hook under the action of the spring; see AT-B 389 906.
- displaceable coupling members as locking bolts which can be inserted into associated bores in a support plate of the implement via a lever mechanism; see DE-B 1 784 323.
- these quick-change devices also have in common the complex training and the susceptibility to faults, taking into account the rough use in earthmoving work. Also, with these quick-change devices, the goal of carrying out a change of work equipment by the driver of the earth-moving machine without additional help personnel alone cannot be achieved.
- the object of the invention is to further develop it in such a way that using fewer and also taking into account the unavoidable wear over long operating times, reliable components reliably lock the implement and boom of an earth moving machine alone from the driver.
- the one abutment surface of the coupling members of the adapter is designed as a cylindrical jacket-shaped abutment surface delimited on both sides by the claws for the purpose of support on the lateral surface of the coupling axis of the implement, while the other abutment surface is flat and forms an imaginary plane connecting the two abutment surfaces is arranged at an incline that the locking plate has an abutment surface facing the adapter and corresponds to the abutment surface and corresponds to the full surface in the locked state, and that the abutment surfaces with the surfaces of the displaceable coupling elements and the openings in the locking plate corresponding to them slide and tighten form mutually facing abutment surfaces of the adapter and the implement force wedge gear.
- the coupling surfaces of the displaceably mounted coupling members of the adapter and the coupling members of the implement are designed and assigned to one another in such a way that they form a wedge gear that clamps the adapter housing and the adapter plate together.
- the coupling surfaces of the displaceable coupling members and the coupling surfaces of the associated coupling members of the locking plate are designed as conical lateral surfaces which correspond to one another over a circumferential angle of approximately 180 °, the circumferential partial surfaces of the coupling elements assigned to the locking plate being complementary to 360 ° and having the associated Include a predetermined bearing clearance circumferential surface areas of the sliding coupling members.
- the inventive design of the locking components of the quick-change device has the advantage that during the locking process, the locking bolts essentially have a supporting function in the upper lateral surface half of the truncated cone-shaped area and the oblique clamping surface of the adapter housing slides over the entire surface onto the oblique clamping surface of the locking plate, so that with a multiaxial bracing of adapter and implement takes place simultaneously with the initiation of the control process.
- the adapter housing is pressed forward against the coupling axis, and the preferably elliptical space between the locking bolts and openings in the locking plate ensures that the locking bolts continuously adjust, that is to say can move into the locking position.
- the locking bolts which are under spring tension, thus assume a low-tension function, whereby the contact claws on the coupling axis create a surface pressure between the above-mentioned inclined surfaces.
- centering elements By means of the centering elements, a pre-centering is achieved when lowering the adapter housing onto the adapter plate assigned to the implement, which not only facilitates the locking process and significantly reduces wear due to canting between the adapter housing and implement, but also makes it possible to change implements without instructions.
- the switching shaft of the locking device can be driven both mechanically and hydraulically, in the mechanical embodiment, an articulated lever mechanism with locking via dead center, and in the hydraulic embodiment, the locking bolts are articulated via an oscillating pressure compensation bridge and a hydraulic cylinder.
- a quick-change device designated as a whole in FIG. 1 with the reference number 10 comprises an adapter, consisting of adapter housing 30 and adapter plate 12, of which the housing 30 is associated with an extension arm, not shown here, of an earthmoving machine, also not shown, and the adapter plate 12 is associated with the implement, also not shown so they are firmly connected.
- the adapter plate 12 comprises a base plate 14 on which a locking plate 16 is welded at one end and a coupling axis 19 is welded at the opposite end by means of fastening tabs 17.
- the locking plate 16 has on the side facing the coupling axis a clamping surface 20 which is inclined to the vertical surface 20 'by 3 ° to 35 °, preferably by 5 ° to 15 °.
- the locking plate 16 is furthermore, as can be seen in particular from FIG. 3, provided with two openings 21 and 22 which are arranged at a distance a from one another and have a conical cross section.
- the cone angle of the openings delimited by conical surface areas is dimensioned accordingly and is 5 ° to 15 ° in the exemplary embodiment shown.
- the approximately cuboidal adapter housing 30 has a receiving claw 31 on its side faces, which in the retracted state - see FIG. 2 - encompass the coupling axis 19.
- the end face of the housing 30 located between the receiving claws 31 merges into an abutment surface 32 in the form of a cylindrical jacket, which — as also shown in FIG. 2 — is supported on the cylindrical jacket surface of the coupling axis 19 in the retracted state.
- the opposite end face 34 is inclined by 3 ° to 35 °, preferably by 5 ° to 15 °, with respect to the vertical - corresponding to the clamping surface 20 of the locking plate 16 - and also has two openings 35 through which one in the housing 30 is mounted so as to be longitudinally displaceable Latch bolt 36 can pass through.
- Each locking bolt 36 has a spring 38 which is arranged in a blind bore 37 and which is supported with its free end on a spring plate 39 to which the end face of an angle lever 41 is assigned.
- the angle lever 41 is articulated by means of a connecting bolt 42 on a switching cam 43 which is fixedly connected to a switching shaft 44.
- the facing arm of the angle lever 41 is connected in an articulated manner to the locking bolt 36 by means of a connecting bolt 45 which extends through an elongated hole 46 at the facing end of the locking bolt 36.
- the parts described above form a known toggle lever mechanism, which is driven via the selector shaft 44 and moves beyond the dead center position - imaginary connecting line of the center points of the selector shaft 44 and connecting bolt 45 - when moving from the rest position shown in FIG. 1 into the working position shown in FIG and locked with it. In this way, automatic release of the extended locking bolts 36 from the locking position shown in FIG. 2 is prevented.
- the opposite ends 50 of the locking bolts 36 are frustoconical in shape with a cone angle of 5 ° to 15 ° and correspond to the openings 21, 22 in the locking plate 16, as can also be clearly seen from FIG. 2.
- centering members are provided, of which the centering members assigned to the adapter housing 30 are designed as cylindrical pins 52 (FIG. 1) which lie in the flat end face 34 on both sides of the displaceable locking bolts 36.
- the centering members assigned to the locking plate 16 are inclined surfaces 51 (FIG. 3) lying in the lowering path of the adapter housing 30.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Schnellwechselvorrichtung für Erdbewegungsfahrzeuge zum Auswechseln von Arbeitsgeräten, die über einen an einem Ausleger der Erdbewegungsmaschine um eine horizontale Achse schwenkbaren Adapter mit diesem lösbar verbunden sind, der als feste Klauen ausgebildete und als verschiebbare Verriegelungsbolzen gelagerte Kupplungsglieder aufweist, denen damit korrespondierende Kupplungsglieder am Arbeitsgerät zugeordnet sind, von denen das eine Kupplungsglied eine Öffnungen für den Eintritt der verschiebbaren Kupplungsglieder aufweisende Riegelplatte ist und das andere Kupplungsglied eine von den Klauen zumindest teilweise umfaßte Kupplungsachse bildet, wobei über die Widerlagerflächen der Kupplungsglieder die Verspannung zwischen Adapter und Arbeitsgerät erfolgt.The invention relates to a quick-change device for earthmoving vehicles for replacing work tools, which are releasably connected to the boom of the earthmoving machine about a horizontal axis with this adapter, which is designed as fixed claws and is mounted as a displaceable locking bolt, with coupling elements that correspond to them on Appliances are assigned, of which the one coupling member has an opening for the entry of the sliding coupling members locking plate and the other coupling member forms a coupling axis at least partially encompassed by the claws, the bracing between the adapter and the implement taking place via the abutment surfaces of the coupling members.
Eine solche feste und verschiebbare Kupplungsglieder aufweisende Schnellwechselvorrichtung zeigt die EP-A 0 273 828. Da Raum für das Einschwenken und Ausschwenken des Adapters in das Arbeitsgerät gegenüber der Riegelplatte benötigt wird, ist diese entsprechend weit von der von den Klauen zu umgreifenden Kupplungsachse entfernt, so daß beim Kuppeln lediglich die Klauen mit der Kupplungsachse und die Bolzen mit den Öffnungen in der Riegelplatte verspannt werden. Durch diese Ausbildung der Kupplungsglieder bedingt erfolgt über die Widerlagerflächen der Kupplungsglieder lediglich ein einachsiges Verspannen zwischen dem Arbeitsgerät und dem Adapter am Ausleger. Eine solche Verbindung ist aber nicht ausreichend steif für den schweren Erdbewegungsbetrieb. Darüber hinaus treten infolge der im wesentlichen nur linienförmigen Berührung zwischen den Kupplungsflächen während des Einsatzes des Erdbewegungsfahrzeuges hohe relative Flächenbelastungen an den Kupplungsgliedern auf.
Beides führt aber zu einem unerwünschten schnellen Verschleiß der Kupplungsglieder. Schließlich ist für den Wechsel von Arbeitsgeräten eine einweisende Hilfe für den Fahrer des Erdbewegungsfahrzeuges notwendig.EP-A 0 273 828 shows such a fixed and displaceable coupling member quick change device. Since space is required for pivoting and pivoting the adapter into the implement relative to the locking plate, this is correspondingly far away from the coupling axis to be gripped by the claws, so that when coupling only the claws with the coupling axis and the bolts with the openings in the locking plate are clamped. Due to this design of the coupling members, only a uniaxial bracing between the implement and the adapter on the boom takes place via the abutment surfaces of the coupling members. However, such a connection is not sufficiently rigid for heavy earthmoving operations. In addition, due to the essentially linear contact between the coupling surfaces during the use of the earth moving vehicle, high relative surface loads occur on the coupling members.
However, both lead to undesirable rapid wear of the coupling members. Finally, instructing help for the driver of the earthmoving vehicle is necessary for changing tools.
Ferner sind Schnellwechselvorrichtungen bekannt, bei denen die gehäusefesten Kupplungsglieder eine Kupplungsachse am Arbeitsgerät und diese teilweise umfassende Aufnahmeklauen am Ausleger aufweisen, wobei das verschiebbar gelagerte Kupplungsglied ein federbelasteter Keil ist, der mit dem am Arbeitsgerät angeordneten festen Kupplungsglied in Form eines Hakens zusammenwirkt, wobei der Keil außerhalb der Wirkstellung durch eine Sperrvorrichtung arretierbar ist, die beim Kupplungsvorgang zwischen dem Ausleger und dem Arbeitsgerät ausgelöst wird, so daß sich zwecks Verriegelung der Keil unter der Wirkung der Feder unter den Haken schiebt; vergleiche AT-B 389 906.Furthermore, quick-change devices are known in which the coupling members fixed to the housing have a coupling axis on the implement and these partially comprehensive receiving claws on the boom, the displaceably mounted coupling element being a spring-loaded wedge which interacts with the fixed coupling element arranged on the implement in the form of a hook, the wedge can be locked outside the active position by a locking device which is triggered during the coupling process between the boom and the implement, so that for the purpose of locking the wedge slides under the hook under the action of the spring; see AT-B 389 906.
Es ist auch bekannt, die verschiebbaren Kupplungsglieder als Riegelbolzen auszubilden, die über ein Hebelgetriebe in zugeordnete Bohrungen einer Tragplatte des Arbeitsgerätes einfahrbar sind; vergleiche DE-B 1 784 323.It is also known to design the displaceable coupling members as locking bolts which can be inserted into associated bores in a support plate of the implement via a lever mechanism; see DE-B 1 784 323.
Schließlich sind Schnellwechselvorrichtungen bekannt, bei denen als bewegliche Kupplungsglieder federbelastete Klinken vorgesehen sind, die im Kupplungszustand ein Gegen-Riegelteil übergreifen und durch äußeren Kraftangriff entgegen der Federkraft entriegelbar sind; vergleiche DE-A 3 312 442.Finally, quick-change devices are known in which spring-loaded pawls are provided as movable coupling members, which overlap a counter-locking part in the coupling state and can be unlocked against the spring force by external force application; compare DE-A 3 312 442.
Über die Eigenschaften der eingangs erläuterten Schnellwechselvorrichtung hinaus ist diesen Schnellwechselvorrichtungen ferner gemeinsam die aufwendige Ausbildung und die Störanfälligkeit unter Berücksichtigung des rauhen Einsatzes bei Erdbewegungsarbeiten. Auch ist mit diesen Schnellwechselvorrichtungen das Ziel, ohne weiteres Hilfspersonal allein durch den Fahrer der Erdbewegungsmaschine einen Wechsel der Arbeitsgeräte durchzuführen, nicht erreichbar.In addition to the properties of the quick-change device explained at the outset, these quick-change devices also have in common the complex training and the susceptibility to faults, taking into account the rough use in earthmoving work. Also, with these quick-change devices, the goal of carrying out a change of work equipment by the driver of the earth-moving machine without additional help personnel alone cannot be achieved.
Andererseits besteht jedoch ein großer Bedarf an zuverlässig über lange Betriebszeiten arbeitenden und einfach zu bedienenden Schnellwechselvorrichtungen.On the other hand, there is a great need for quick-change devices that work reliably over long operating times and are easy to operate.
Ausgehend von der Schnellwechselvorrichtung nach der EP-A 0 273 828 liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, diese derart weiterzubilden, daß unter Benutzung weniger und auch unter Berücksichtigung des unvermeidbaren Verschleißes über lange Betriebszeiten zuverlässig arbeitender Bauteile ein sicheres Verriegeln von Arbeitsgerät und Ausleger einer Erdbewegungsmaschine allein vom Fahrer aus möglich wird.On the basis of the quick-change device according to EP-A 0 273 828, the object of the invention is to further develop it in such a way that using fewer and also taking into account the unavoidable wear over long operating times, reliable components reliably lock the implement and boom of an earth moving machine alone from the driver.
Diese Aufgabe ist erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die eine Widerlagerfläche der Kupplungsglieder des Adapters als beidseitig von den Klauen begrenzte zylindermantelförmige Widerlagerfläche ausgebildet ist zwecks Abstützung an der Mantelfläche der Kupplungsachse des Arbeitsgerätes, während die andere Widerlagerfläche eben ausgebildet und zu einer gedachten, beide Widerlagerflächen verbindenden Ebene geneigt angeordnet ist, daß die Riegelplatte eine der Widerlagerfläche des Adapters zugewandte und mit dieser korrespondierende und im Verriegelungszustand vollflächig aufliegende Widerlagerfläche aufweist, und daß die Widerlagerflächen mit den Flächen der verschiebbaren Kupplungsglieder und den mit diesen korrespondierenden Öffnungen in der Riegelplatte ein ein Aufgleiten und Verspannen der einander zugewandten Widerlagerflächen von Adapter und Arbeitsgerät erzwingendes Keilgetriebe bilden.This object is achieved in that the one abutment surface of the coupling members of the adapter is designed as a cylindrical jacket-shaped abutment surface delimited on both sides by the claws for the purpose of support on the lateral surface of the coupling axis of the implement, while the other abutment surface is flat and forms an imaginary plane connecting the two abutment surfaces is arranged at an incline that the locking plate has an abutment surface facing the adapter and corresponds to the abutment surface and corresponds to the full surface in the locked state, and that the abutment surfaces with the surfaces of the displaceable coupling elements and the openings in the locking plate corresponding to them slide and tighten form mutually facing abutment surfaces of the adapter and the implement force wedge gear.
Nach einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung sind die Kupplungsflächen der verschiebbar gelagerten Kupplungsglieder des Adapters und der Kupplungsglieder des Arbeitsgerätes derart ausgebildet und einander zugeordnet, daß diese ein das Adaptergehäuse und die Adapterplatte miteinander verspannendes Keilgetriebe bilden.According to a further feature of the invention, the coupling surfaces of the displaceably mounted coupling members of the adapter and the coupling members of the implement are designed and assigned to one another in such a way that they form a wedge gear that clamps the adapter housing and the adapter plate together.
Nach einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung sind die Kupplungsflächen der verschiebbaren Kupplungsglieder und die Kupplungsflächen der zugeordneten Kupplungsglieder der Riegelplatte als über einen Umfangswinkel von etwa 180° miteinander korrespondierende Kegelmantelflächen ausgebildet, wobei die den Umfangswinkel auf 360° ergänzenden Umfangsteilflächen der der Riegelplatte zugeordneten Kupplungsglieder mit den zugeordneten Umfangsflächenbereichen der verschiebbaren Kupplungsglieder ein vorbestimmtes Lagerspiel einschließen.According to a further feature of the invention, the coupling surfaces of the displaceable coupling members and the coupling surfaces of the associated coupling members of the locking plate are designed as conical lateral surfaces which correspond to one another over a circumferential angle of approximately 180 °, the circumferential partial surfaces of the coupling elements assigned to the locking plate being complementary to 360 ° and having the associated Include a predetermined bearing clearance circumferential surface areas of the sliding coupling members.
Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.Further advantageous embodiments of the invention result from the subclaims.
Die erfindungsgemäße Ausbildung der dem Verriegeln dienenden Bauteile der Schnellwechselvorrichtung hat den Vorteil, daß beim Verriegelungsvorgang die Riegelbolzen im wesentlichen in der oberen Mantelflächenhälfte des kegelstumpfförmigen Bereiches eine tragende Funktion ausüben und die schräge Spannfläche des Adaptergehäuses vollflächig auf die schräge Spannfläche der Verriegelplatte aufgleitet, so daß mit dem Einleiten des Regelvorgangs gleichzeitig ein mehrachsiges Verspannen von Adapter und Arbeitsgerät erfolgt.The inventive design of the locking components of the quick-change device has the advantage that during the locking process, the locking bolts essentially have a supporting function in the upper lateral surface half of the truncated cone-shaped area and the oblique clamping surface of the adapter housing slides over the entire surface onto the oblique clamping surface of the locking plate, so that with a multiaxial bracing of adapter and implement takes place simultaneously with the initiation of the control process.
Während des Kupplungsvorgangs wird das Adaptergehäuse nach vorn gegen die Kupplungsachse gedrückt, und durch den vorzugsweise elliptisch ausgebildeten Freiraum zwischen Riegelbolzen und Durchbrüchen in der Riegelplatte ist gewährleistet, daß die Riegelbolzen ständig nachsetzen, sich also in die Verriegelungsposition bewegen können. Die unter Federspannung stehenden Riegelbolzen übernehmen somit eine Niederspannfunktion, wobei durch die Anlage der Aufnahmeklauen an der Kupplungsachse eine Flächenpressung zwischen den vorstehend erwähnten Schrägflächen entsteht.During the coupling process, the adapter housing is pressed forward against the coupling axis, and the preferably elliptical space between the locking bolts and openings in the locking plate ensures that the locking bolts continuously adjust, that is to say can move into the locking position. The locking bolts, which are under spring tension, thus assume a low-tension function, whereby the contact claws on the coupling axis create a surface pressure between the above-mentioned inclined surfaces.
Falls Toleranzen, verursacht durch Verschleiß, auftreten sollten, werden diese dadurch ausgeglichen, daß die federbeaufschlagten Riegelbolzen weiter in den Freiraum der Durchbrüche in der Riegelplatte vorgeschoben werden können.If tolerances caused by wear should occur, these are compensated for by the fact that the spring-loaded locking bolts can be pushed further into the free space of the openings in the locking plate.
Mittels der Zentrierorgane wird eine Vorzentrierung beim Absenken des Adaptergehäuses auf die dem Arbeitsgerät zugeordnete Adapterplatte erreicht, wodurch der Verriegelungsvorgang nicht nur erleichtert und ein Verschleiß infolge Verkantens zwischen Adaptergehäuse und Arbeitsgerät wesentlich verringert, sondern auch ein einweisungsfreies Wechseln von Arbeitsgeräten möglich wird.By means of the centering elements, a pre-centering is achieved when lowering the adapter housing onto the adapter plate assigned to the implement, which not only facilitates the locking process and significantly reduces wear due to canting between the adapter housing and implement, but also makes it possible to change implements without instructions.
Der Antrieb der Schaltwelle der Verriegelungsvorrichtung kann sowohl mechanisch als auch hydraulisch erfolgen, wobei in der mechanischen Ausführungsform ein Knickhebelmechanismus mit Verriegelung über den Totpunkt und bei der hydraulischen Ausführungsform die Anlenkung der Riegelbolzen über eine pendelnde Druckausgleichsbrücke und einen Hydraulikzylinder erfolgen.The switching shaft of the locking device can be driven both mechanically and hydraulically, in the mechanical embodiment, an articulated lever mechanism with locking via dead center, and in the hydraulic embodiment, the locking bolts are articulated via an oscillating pressure compensation bridge and a hydraulic cylinder.

Eine in Figur 1 insgesamt mit der Bezugsziffer 10 bezeichnete Schnellwechselvorrichtung umfaßt einen Adapter, bestehend aus Adaptergehäuse 30 und Adapterplatte 12, von denen das Gehäuse 30 einem hier nicht dargestellten Auslegerarm einer ebenfalls nicht dargestellten Erdbewegungsmaschine und die Adapterplatte 12 dem ebenfalls nicht dargestellten Arbeitsgerät zugeordnet und mit diesen also fest verbunden sind.A quick-change device designated as a whole in FIG. 1 with the
Die Adapterplatte 12 umfaßt eine Grundplatte 14, auf der an dem einen Ende eine Riegelplatte 16 und an dem abgewandten Ende mittels Befestigungslaschen 17 eine Kupplungsachse 19 verschweißt sind. Die Riegelplatte 16 weist auf der der Kupplungsachse zugewandten Seite eine Spannfläche 20 auf, die zur senkrechten Fläche 20' um 3° bis 35°, vorzugsweise um 5° bis 15°, geneigt ist. Die Riegelplatte 16 ist ferner, wie insbesondere aus Figur 3 zu ersehen ist, mit zwei im Abstand a voneinander angeordneten und im Querschnitt konisch ausgebildeten Durchbrüchen 21 und 22 versehen. Der Konuswinkel der von Kegelmantelflächen begrenzten Durchbrüche ist entsprechend bemessen und beträgt im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel 5° bis 15°.The
Diese 360° umfassenden Kegelmantelflächen der Durchbrüche 21 und 22 sind jeweils im gleichen Abstand zwei Zentren Z1 und Z2 zugeordnet, so daß jeweils zwei Kegelmantelteilflächen vorhanden sind, von denen die in bezug auf Figur 1 untere Kegelmantelteilfläche gegenüber der gedachten, die obere Kegelmantelteilfläche zu einem vollständigen Kegelstumpf ergänzende Kegelmantelteilfläche ein noch zu beschreibendes Lagerspiel S aufweist.These 360 ° conical surface areas of the
Das etwa quaderförmige Adaptergehäuse 30 weist an seinen Seitenflächen je eine Aufnahmeklaue 31 auf, die im eingefahrenen Zustand - vergleiche Figur 2 - die Kupplungsachse 19 umgreifen. Die zwischen den Aufnahmeklauen 31 befindliche Stirnfläche des Gehäuses 30 geht in eine zylindermantelförmige Widerlagerfläche 32 über, die - wie ebenfalls Figur 2 zeigt - im eingefahrenen Zustand sich an der Zylindermantelfläche der Kupplungsachse 19 abstützt.The approximately
Die abgewandte Stirnseite 34 ist um 3° bis 35°, vorzugsweise um 5° bis 15°, gegenüber der Senkrechten - korrespondierend zur Spannfläche 20 der Riegelplatte 16 - geneigt und weist ebenfalls zwei Durchbrüche 35 auf, durch die je ein im Gehäuse 30 längsverschieblich gelagerter Riegelbolzen 36 hindurchtreten kann.The
Jeder Riegelbolzen 36 weist eine in einer Sackbohrung 37 angeordnete Feder 38 auf, die sich mit ihrem freien Ende auf einem Federteller 39 abstützt, dem die Stirnseite eines Winkelhebels 41 zugeordnet ist. Der Winkelhebel 41 ist mittels eines Verbindungsbolzens 42 an einem Schaltnocken 43 angelenkt, der mit einer Schaltwelle 44 fest verbunden ist. Über einen Verbindungsbolzen 45, der durch ein Langloch 46 am zugewandten Ende des Riegelbolzens 36 greift, ist der zugewandte Arm des Winkelhebels 41 mit dem Riegelbolzen 36 gelenkig verbunden.Each
Die vorstehend beschriebenen Teile bilden ein an sich bekanntes Kniehebelgetriebe, das über die Schaltwelle 44 angetrieben beim Bewegen von der in Figur 1 gezeigten Ruhelage in die in Figur 2 gezeigte Arbeitslage über die Totpunktlage hinaus - gedachte Verbindungslinie der Mittelpunkte von Schaltwelle 44 und Verbindungsbolzen 45 - bewegt und damit verriegelt ist. Auf diese Weise wird ein selbsttätiges Lösen der ausgefahrenen Riegelbolzen 36 aus der in Figur 2 dargestellten Riegellage verhindert.The parts described above form a known toggle lever mechanism, which is driven via the
Die abgewandten Enden 50 der Riegelbolzen 36 sind kegelstumpfförmig mit einem Kegelwinkel von 5° bis 15° ausgebildet und korrespondieren mit den Durchbrüchen 21, 22 in der Riegelplatte 16, wie dies ebenfalls aus Figur 2 deutlich erkennbar ist.The
Zwecks Vorzentrierung beim Absenken des Adaptergehäuses 30 auf die Adapterplatte 12 des Arbeitsgerätes sind Zentrierorgane vorgesehen, von denen die dem Adaptergehäuse 30 zugeordneten Zentrierorgane als Zylinderstifte 52 (Figur 1) ausgebildet sind, die in die ebene Stirnfläche 34 beidseitig der verschiebbaren Riegelbolzen 36 liegen. Die der Riegelplatte 16 zugeordneten Zentrierorgane sind im Absenkweg des Adaptergehäuses 30 liegende Schrägflächen 51 (Figur 3). Beim Absenken des Adaptergehäuses 30 auf die Adpaterplatte 12 - siehe Figur 1 - werden infolge der Schrägflächen 51 das Adaptergehäuse und damit die verschiebbaren Riegelbolzen 36 in bezug auf die Durchbrüche 21, 22 ausgerichtet und damit zentriert, so daß der Kupplungsvorgang zwischen Riegelbolzen 36 und Durchbrüchen 21, 22 störungsfrei erfolgt.For the purpose of pre-centering when lowering the
Infolge der Exzentrizität - Lagerspiel S - der in bezug auf die Figuren 1 bis 3 unteren Kegelmantelteilflächen der Durchbrüche 21, 22 der Riegelplatte 16 liegen in der Eingriffsstellung gemäß Figur 2 die kegelstumpfförmigen Endbereiche 50 der Riegelbolzen 36 lediglich an den oberen Kegelmantelteilflächen der Durchbrüche 21, 22, also über etwa 180° der Umfangsfläche an, während die Kegelmantelteilflächen der unteren Bereiche nicht anliegen sondern freiliegen, wie dies in Figur 2 durch den Spalt S angedeutet ist. Hierzu sind die den Zentren Z1 zugeordneten Ebenen - vergleiche Figur 3 - so ausgerichtet, so daß sie die Verbindungsbolzen 45 der Riegelbolzen 36 mittig schneiden und sind die Riegelbolzen 36 mittels entsprechend bemessener Gleitlager 49 im Adaptergehäuse 30 parallel geführt.As a result of the eccentricity - bearing play S - of the lower conical surface portions of the
In dieser Eingriffsstellung, in der das Adaptergehäuse 30 zwischen der an der Kupplungsachse 19 anliegenden Widerlagerfläche 32 und der Spannfläche 20 der Riegelplatte 16, die an der Stirnseite 34 des Adaptergehäuses anliegt, liegt, verspannen die Riegelbolzen 36 das Adaptergehäuse 30 auf der Adapterplatte 12 infolge des beim Bewegen der Riegelbolzen 36 aus der in Figur 1 dargestellten Ruhelage in die in Figur 2 dargestellte Wirklage als Keilgetriebe wirkenden Kegelmantelteilflächen und bilden die zweite lastübertragende Lagerstelle der Schnellwechselvorrichtung, welch der die erste Lagerstelle bildenden Kupplungsachse 16, die von den Aufnahmenklauen 31 umfaßt ist, gegenüberliegt.In this engagement position, in which the adapter housing 30 between the abutment surface resting on the
Selbstverständlich sind auch andere geometrische Formen der Spannflächen und Riegelflächen möglich, ohne daß hierbei der Erfindungsgedanke verlassen wird; beispielsweise sind anstelle von Kegelmantelflächen auch ebene Schrägflächen für die beweglichen Riegelorgane und deren zugeordnete gehäusefeste Kupplungsglieder möglich. Entscheidend ist lediglich, daß ein ausreichendes Lagerspiel S zwischen den betroffenen und ein Keilgetriebe bildenden Kupplungsgliedern vorhanden ist.Of course, other geometrical shapes of the clamping surfaces and locking surfaces are also possible without leaving the inventive idea; For example, instead of conical surface areas, flat inclined surfaces for the movable locking members and their associated housing-fixed coupling members are also possible. The only decisive factor is that there is sufficient bearing play S between the coupling members concerned and forming a wedge gear.
