Definitions
- the present invention relates to a construction machine such as a hydraulic excavator, more particularly to a construction machine having a first boom and a second boom as a working mechanism.
- a hydraulic excavator as a representative example of construction machines is largely constituted by an automotive lower traveling structure, an upper revolving structure which is swingably mounted on the lower traveling structure, and a working mechanism liftably mounted on the front side of the upper revolving structure.
- the working mechanism is generally constituted by a boom whose proximal end side is rotatably connected to the upper revolving structure, an arm which is rotatably connected to a distal end side of the boom, a working tool such as an excavating bucket which is rotatably connected to a distal end side of the arm, and a boom cylinder, an arm cylinder, and a working tool cylinder for operating the boom, the arm, and the working tool.
- a working mechanism which is of two-piece boom specifications in which the boom is divided into two, namely, a first boom and a second boom, so as to enlarge the movable range of the working mechanism.
- This two-piece boom is largely constituted by a first boom whose proximal end side is rotatably connected to the upper revolving structure by use of a first boom connecting pin, a second boom which is rotatably connected to a distal end side of the first boom by use of a second boom connecting pin, a boom cylinder for tilting the first boom vertically to the upper revolving structure, and a positioning cylinder for tilting the second boom vertically to the first boom.
- An arm is arranged to be rotatably connected to a distal end side of the second boom.
- a bending angle between the first boom and the second boom can be adjusted appropriately by tilting the second boom vertically to the first boom by the positioning cylinder.
- the bending angle between the first boom and the second boom is adjusted according to the excavation depth, whereby it is possible to enhance the workability of the excavating operation by enlarging the movable range of the working mechanism.
- the construction provided is such that the whole working mechanism can be folded compactly by drawing the second boom toward the first boom side, for example, during the traveling of the hydraulic excavator (see, for example, Patent Literature 1: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. Hei 11-93199 A , Patent Literature 2: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-220851 A ).
- brackets for the positioning cylinder are respectively provided on an outward surface (back surface) of the first boom and a proximal end portion of the second boom.
- the positioning cylinder has its proximal end side connected to the bracket provided on the outward surface of the first boom and its distal end side connected to the bracket provided on the proximal end portion of the second boom.
- the positioning cylinder is extended or contracted, the second boom is tilted vertically about the second boom connecting pin to the first boom to thereby change the bending angle therebetween.
- the bracket is joined to the outward surface of the first boom by welding, and the proximal end side of the positioning cylinder is connected to this bracket.
- the present invention is applied to a construction machine comprising an automotive vehicle body and a working mechanism which is liftably provided on the vehicle body, the working mechanism including a first boom whose proximal end side is connected to the vehicle body through a first boom connecting pin, a second boom connected to a distal end side of the first boom through a second boom connecting pin, a boom cylinder for tilting the first boom vertically to the vehicle body, and a positioning cylinder for tilting the second boom vertically so as to adjust a bending angle of the second boom with respect to the first boom.
- a characteristic feature of the construction adopted in the preset invention lies in that a proximal end side of the positioning cylinder is arranged to be mounted coaxially with the proximal end side of the first boom by use of the first boom connecting pin, and a distal end side of the positioning cylinder is arranged to be mounted on the second boom.
- a bracket for the positioning cylinder need not be provided on, for instance, the outward surface of the first boom by use of welding or other similar means. For this reason, even if the first boom has undergone deformation due to the action of the load on the first boom, the proximal end side of the positioning cylinder can be kept reliably mounted on the first boom connecting pin, so that the positioning cylinder can be operated stably over extended periods of time.
- a cylinder accommodating section for accommodating a part of the positioning cylinder is arranged to be provided in the first boom at a position opposing the positioning cylinder.
- the first boom is constituted by left and right foot portions disposed in such a manner as to be spaced apart from each other in a leftward and rightward directions and a rectangular tubular portion secured to distal end sides of the left and right foot portions, a pin through hole into which the first boom connecting pin is inserted being provided in each of proximal end sides of the left and right foot portions, a cylinder accommodating section for accommodating a part of the positioning cylinder being provided between the left and right foot portions, the proximal end side of the positioning cylinder being arranged to be disposed in the cylinder accommodating section.
- an innermost recessed portion of the cylinder accommodating section is arranged to be closed by a plate member provided on the first boom.
- a cylinder bracket is provided on a lower surface of the second boom at a position spaced apart forwardly of a position of the second boom connecting pin, and the distal end side of the positioning cylinder is arranged to be mounted to the cylinder bracket.
- the positioning cylinder bracket for mounting the distal end of the positioning cylinder is provided on the lower surface of the second boom in such a manner as to be located in the vicinity of the second boom connecting pin, the positioning cylinder can be disposed between the first boom and the second boom. In consequence, when performing such as the operation of excavating earth and sand, etc. by use of the working mechanism, the positioning cylinder can be prevented from interfering with obstacles which are present in the surroundings of the working mechanism, thereby making it possible to secure a working range widely.
- a proximal end side of the boom cylinder is mounted on the vehicle body in such a manner as to be located forwardly of the first boom connecting pin, and a distal end side of the boom cylinder is arranged to be mounted coaxially with a proximal end side of the second boom by use of the second boom connecting pin.
- a bracket or the like for mounting the distal end side of the boom cylinder need not be provided on the first boom. For this reason, as compared with the case when such as the bracket for the boom cylinder is provided on the first boom, the number of parts can be reduced, thereby making it possible to lower the manufacturing cost of the first boom correspondingly.
