Description

DOMAINE DE L'INVENTIONFIELD OF THE INVENTION

L'invention concerne un engin de terrassement à dispositif d'attache rapide et adaptateur réversible pour godet. Un tel engin de terrassement est apte à travailler en mode rétro et en mode chouleur. L'adaptateur réversible est fixé au godet, et présente deux axes de brochage, parallèles entre eux, aptes à être saisis par le dispositif d'attache rapide dans les deux orientations opposées du godet, pour travailler aussi bien en mode rétro avec l'ouverture du godet vers l'engin, qu'en mode chouleur avec l'ouverture du godet à l'opposé de l'engin.The invention relates to an earthmoving machine with a quick coupler device and a reversible bucket adapter. Such an earth-moving machine is able to work in retro mode and in chouleur mode. The reversible adapter is fixed to the bucket, and has two broaching axes, parallel to each other, suitable for being gripped by the quick coupler device in the two opposite orientations of the bucket, to work both in reverse mode with the opening of the bucket towards the machine, only in chouleur mode with the opening of the bucket opposite the machine.

ART ANTERI EURPRIOR ART

Un engin de terrassement de ce type est décrit dans le document EP 1 749 939 . Cet engin comporte un adaptateur essentiellement constitué par deux plaques latérales parallèles, reliées par deux axes de brochage. Une fois mis en place sur le godet, l'adaptateur reçoit sur l'un de ses axes les crochets de l'attache rapide et sur l'autre axe d'une part, l'appui de l'extrémité de l'attache rapide opposée aux crochets, et d'autre part, un verrou de fixation.An earth-moving machine of this type is described in the document EP 1 749 939 . This machine comprises an adapter essentially consisting of two parallel side plates, connected by two broaching pins. Once in place on the bucket, the adapter receives on one of its axes the hooks of the quick coupler and on the other axis on the one hand, the support of the end of the quick coupler opposite the hooks, and on the other hand, a fixing lock.

Cette obligation d'avoir deux pièces en appui stable sur un axe impose que cet axe présente deux faces planes faisant entre elles un angle déterminé. L'adaptateur étant réversible, ses deux axes doivent présenter les mêmes faces planes, les deux axes étant rigoureusement symétriques. Il en résulte une difficulté de réalisation et une difficulté de montage.This obligation to have two parts in stable support on an axis imposes that this axis has two flat faces forming between them a determined angle. The adapter being reversible, its two axes must have the same flat faces, the two axes being strictly symmetrical. This results in a difficulty of production and a difficulty of assembly.

De plus, l'un des deux axes cumule en mode rétro deux fonctions distinctes, reprise des efforts de cavage et verrouillage. Par conséquent, si un défaut apparaît (positionnement, déformation, usure...) sur l'axe en question, il peut en résulter simultanément une conséquence néfaste sur les deux fonctions.In addition, one of the two axles combines two distinct functions in reverse mode, recovery of crowding forces and locking. Consequently, if a defect appears (positioning, deformation, wear, etc.) on the axis in question, it can simultaneously result in a harmful consequence on the two functions.

Le godet 3 (figure 3) est équipé d'un adaptateur 4 réversible qui permet au dispositif 5 d'attache rapide (figure 4) fixé au bout du bras 2 de manoeuvre, de saisir le godet 3 dans chacune des deux positions correspondant aux modes rétro et chouleur.Bucket 3 ( picture 3 ) is equipped with a reversible adapter 4 which allows the quick-attach device 5 ( figure 4 ) fixed at the end of the arm 2 maneuver, to enter the bucket 3 in each of the two positions corresponding to the retro and chouleur modes.

L'adaptateur 4 réversible est essentiellement constitué de manière classique de deux plaques latérales 6, 7 et de deux axes 8, 9 de brochage.The reversible adapter 4 essentially consists in a conventional manner of two side plates 6, 7 and two axes 8, 9 of broaching.

Les plaques latérales 6, 7 sont symétriques l'une de l'autre par rapport au plan vertical de référence de l'engin 1. Ce plan de référence est un plan vertical passant par l'axe longitudinal du bras 2 de manoeuvre. Les plaques latérales 6, 7 sont reliées entre elles par les deux axes 8, 9 de brochage, qui sont perpendiculaires au plan de référence et au plan des plaques latérales 6, 7.The side plates 6, 7 are symmetrical to each other with respect to the vertical reference plane of the machine 1. This reference plane is a vertical plane passing through the longitudinal axis of the maneuvering arm 2. The side plates 6, 7 are interconnected by the two broaching axes 8, 9, which are perpendicular to the reference plane and to the plane of the side plates 6, 7.

Les axes géométriques des axes de brochage 8, 9 définissent un plan 10. Les deux axes de brochage 8, 9 sont symétriques l'un de l'autre par rapport au plan médian 11 perpendiculaire au plan 10 reliant leurs axes géométriques. La structure de l'adaptateur réversible 4 comprend de façon classique des renforts 12 et des moyens de fixation au godet 3.The geometric axes of the broaching axes 8, 9 define a plane 10. The two broaching axes 8, 9 are symmetrical to one another with respect to the median plane 11 perpendicular to the plane 10 connecting their geometric axes. The structure of the reversible adapter 4 conventionally comprises reinforcements 12 and means for fixing to the cup 3.

Selon l'invention, chaque plaque latérale 6, 7, porte, vers l'intérieur de l'adaptateur 4, une paire de rampes inclinées, ou butées, respectivement 13, 14 et 15, 16. Les rampes d'une même paire, 13, 14 d'une part et 15, 16 d'autre part, sont symétriques l'une de l'autre par rapport au plan médian 11. Les paires de rampes 13, 14 et 15, 16, sont symétriques l'une de l'autre par rapport au plan de référence de l'engin 1.According to the invention, each side plate 6, 7 carries, towards the inside of the adapter 4, a pair of inclined ramps, or stops, respectively 13, 14 and 15, 16. The ramps of the same pair, 13, 14 on the one hand and 15, 16 on the other hand, are symmetrical to each other by relative to the median plane 11. The pairs of ramps 13, 14 and 15, 16 are symmetrical to each other relative to the reference plane of the machine 1.

Par rapport au plan 10 des axes géométriques des axes 8, 9 de brochage, les rampes 13 à 16 ont une inclinaison comprise entre 5 et 45°, plus précisément entre 10 et 30°, et de préférence de 20°. Dans les exemples de réalisation des figures 5 à 9, les rampes 13 à 16 définissent un dièdre, ouvert vers les axes de brochage et présentant un angle d'ouverture de 140°. L'adaptateur 4 réversible peut être obtenu par assemblage mécano-soudé ou par moulage. Les rampes 13 à 16 sont mécaniquement liées aux plaques latérales.With respect to the plane 10 of the geometric axes of the broaching axes 8, 9, the ramps 13 to 16 have an inclination of between 5 and 45°, more precisely between 10 and 30°, and preferably of 20°. In the embodiments of the figures 5 to 9 , the ramps 13 to 16 define a dihedral, open towards the broaching axes and having an opening angle of 140°. The reversible adapter 4 can be obtained by mechanically welded assembly or by molding. The ramps 13 to 16 are mechanically linked to the side plates.

Le dispositif 5 d'attache rapide est porté par l'extrémité du bras 2 de l'engin 1. De façon classique, il comporte des crochets 17 dits avant et un verrou 18 dit arrière. Les crochets 17 avant sont disposés symétriquement par rapport au plan de référence de l'engin, à l'état couplé du dispositif 5 d'attache rapide au bras 2 de manoeuvre, et sont destinés à recevoir l'un des axes de brochage 8, 9 de l'adaptateur 4 réversible. Le verrou arrière 18 est destiné à s'insérer sous l'autre axe de brochage pour assurer le verrouillage du dispositif d'attache rapide 5 sur l'adaptateur réversible 4. Selon l'invention, le dispositif d'attache rapide 5 comporte deux rampes inclinées 19, 20, destinées à coopérer avec les rampes inclinées de l'adaptateur 4 par appui réciproque.The quick-attach device 5 is carried by the end of the arm 2 of the machine 1. Conventionally, it comprises so-called front hooks 17 and a so-called rear lock 18. The front hooks 17 are arranged symmetrically with respect to the reference plane of the machine, in the coupled state of the quick-attach device 5 to the operating arm 2, and are intended to receive one of the broaching axes 8, 9 of the reversible adapter 4. The rear lock 18 is intended to be inserted under the other broaching axis to ensure the locking of the quick-attach device 5 on the reversible adapter 4. According to the invention, the quick-attach device 5 comprises two ramps inclined 19, 20, intended to cooperate with the inclined ramps of the adapter 4 by reciprocal support.

Dans l'exemple de réalisation des figures 7 et 8, l'engin 1 travaille en mode rétro. Le godet 3 et l'adaptateur réversible 4 sont dans la situation de la figure 3. Le dispositif d'attache rapide 5 a ses crochets 17 en prise sur l'axe de brochage 8 de l'adaptateur réversible 4, et son verrou 18 en position de verrouillage sous l'axe de brochage 9.In the embodiment of the figure 7 And 8 , engine 1 works in retro mode. Bucket 3 and reversible adapter 4 are in the situation of the picture 3 . The quick-attach device 5 has its hooks 17 engaged on the broaching axis 8 of the reversible adapter 4, and its latch 18 in the locking position under the broaching axis 9.

Dans cette position relative du dispositif d'attache rapide 5 et de l'adaptateur réversible 4, la rampe inclinée 20 du dispositif d'attache rapide 5 est en appui sur la rampe inclinée 14 de l'adaptateur réversible 4. De même, la rampe inclinée 19 du dispositif d'attache rapide 5 est en appui sur la rampe inclinée 16 de l'adaptateur réversible 4.In this relative position of the quick-attach device 5 and the reversible adapter 4, the inclined ramp 20 of the quick-attach device 5 rests on the inclined ramp 14 of the reversible adapter 4. Similarly, the ramp 19 of the quick-attach device 5 rests on the inclined ramp 16 of the reversible adapter 4.

Dans l'exemple de réalisation de la figure 9, l'engin 1 travaille en mode chouleur. Les crochets 17 du dispositif d'attache rapide sont en prise sur l'axe de brochage 9 de l'adaptateur réversible 4 et le verrou 18 est en position de verrouillage sous l'axe de brochage 8. Les rampes inclinées 19, 20 du dispositif d'attache rapide 5 sont en appui respectivement sur les rampes 13 et 15 de l'adaptateur réversible 4.In the embodiment of the figure 9 , machine 1 works in chouleur mode. The hooks 17 of the quick-attach device are engaged on the broaching axis 9 of the reversible adapter 4 and the lock 18 is in locking position under broaching axis 8. The inclined ramps 19, 20 of the quick-attach device 5 rest respectively on the ramps 13 and 15 of the reversible adapter 4.

L'appui réciproque des rampes inclinées 19, 20 du dispositif d'attache rapide 5 sur les rampes inclinées 16, 14, ou 13, 15 respectivement, de l'adaptateur réversible 4 assure une transmission des efforts mécaniques sur les rampes inclinées et non pas sur l'axe de brochage comme dans les adaptateurs de l'art antérieur. Il en résulte un meilleur écoulement des contraintes mécaniques dans la structure du godet, entraînant une meilleure tenue de l'équipement de terrassement aux chargements cycliques. Il en résulte également de moindres efforts de flexion sur l'axe de brochage sous l'action du verrou, d'où une plus grande sécurité de l'équipement de terrassement.The reciprocal support of the inclined ramps 19, 20 of the quick-attach device 5 on the inclined ramps 16, 14, or 13, 15 respectively, of the reversible adapter 4 ensures transmission of the mechanical forces on the inclined ramps and not on the broaching axis as in the adapters of the prior art. This results in a better flow of mechanical stresses in the structure of the bucket, resulting in better resistance of the earthmoving equipment to cyclic loadings. This also results in less bending forces on the broaching axis under the action of the lock, resulting in greater safety of the earthmoving equipment.

Dans le fonctionnement en mode chouleur, lorsque le godet 3 est chargé, l'adaptateur réversible 4 est pratiquement en position verticale, et l'ouverture des crochets 17 du dispositif d'attache rapide 5 est orientée vers le bas. La coopération des rampes inclinées 13 et 19 d'une part, 15 et 20 d'autre part, permet de transférer une partie du poids du godet 3 d'une part sur le verrou 18, d'autre part sur les crochets 17. Il en résulte une réduction des contraintes au niveau du verrou et une amélioration de la sécurité.In operation in chouleur mode, when the bucket 3 is loaded, the reversible adapter 4 is practically in the vertical position, and the opening of the hooks 17 of the quick coupler device 5 is oriented downwards. The cooperation of the inclined ramps 13 and 19 on the one hand, 15 and 20 on the other hand, makes it possible to transfer part of the weight of the bucket 3 on the one hand to the lock 18, on the other hand to the hooks 17. It This results in a reduction of the stresses at the level of the lock and an improvement in security.

Par ailleurs, en cas d'usure dans le fond des crochets 17 du dispositif d'attache rapide 5, il y a un jeu entre l'axe de brochage et les crochets 17. Lors d'une baisse de la force de verrouillage appliquée au verrou 18, ou lorsque le verrou 18 est complètement sorti, un tel jeu peut être constaté. Selon l'invention, l'inclinaison des rampes en appui réciproque entraîne une force de réaction dont une composante, parallèle au plan 10 des axes géométriques des axes de brochage 8 et 9, a tendance à ramener l'axe de brochage de l'adaptateur réversible au fond de crochets 17.Furthermore, in the event of wear in the bottom of the hooks 17 of the quick-attach device 5, there is play between the broaching pin and the hooks 17. When the locking force applied to the latch 18, or when latch 18 is fully extended, such play can be observed. According to the invention, the inclination of the ramps in reciprocal support causes a reaction force, a component of which, parallel to the plane 10 of the geometric axes of the broaching axes 8 and 9, tends to bring the broaching axis of the adapter reversible at the bottom of hooks 17.

Selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, les axes de brochage 8, 9, présentent dans leur zone centrale, une surface plane 21, 22, respectivement. Les surfaces planes 21 et 22 sont disposées symétriquement l'une de l'autre par rapport au plan médian 11. Elles sont inclinées dans le sens d'un rapprochement vers le bas. Elles jouent le rôle de surface de guidage du moyen de verrouillage du dispositif d'attache rapide 5 sur l'adaptateur réversible 4. Au cours de la mise en place du dispositif d'attache rapide 5 sur l'adaptateur réversible 4, la première phase consiste à rapprocher les crochets 17 d'un axe de brochage. Lorsque l'axe de brochage, 8 par exemple, est au fond des crochets 17, le dispositif d'attache rapide 5 est basculé en pivotant sur l'axe de brochage 8. Dans le cas d'un verrou 18 sollicité par ressort, au cours de ce pivotement du dispositif d'attache rapide 5, l'extrémité du pivot 18 arrive au contact de l'axe de brochage 9. En prenant appui sur la surface 22, le verrou 18 est repoussé dans sa gaine en comprimant son ressort. Lorsque l'extrémité libre du verrou 18 sort de la surface 22, le ressort repousse le verrou 18 qui assure le verrouillage sous l'axe de brochage 9. En variante, le verrou 18 arrière peut être sollicité par un vérin tel qu'un vérin hydraulique.According to one embodiment of the invention, the broaching pins 8, 9 have in their central zone a flat surface 21, 22, respectively. The flat surfaces 21 and 22 are arranged symmetrically to each other with respect to the median plane 11. They are inclined in the direction of approaching downwards. They play the role guide surface of the locking means of the quick-attach device 5 on the reversible adapter 4. During the establishment of the quick-attach device 5 on the reversible adapter 4, the first phase consists in bringing the hooks 17 of a broaching axis. When the broaching axis, 8 for example, is at the bottom of the hooks 17, the quick-attach device 5 is tilted by pivoting on the broaching axis 8. In the case of a spring-loaded lock 18, at the during this pivoting of the quick-release device 5, the end of the pivot 18 comes into contact with the broaching pin 9. By resting on the surface 22, the lock 18 is pushed back into its sheath by compressing its spring. When the free end of the lock 18 comes out of the surface 22, the spring pushes the lock 18 which ensures the locking under the broaching axis 9. Alternatively, the rear lock 18 can be acted upon by a jack such as a jack hydraulic.

Les avantages de l'invention sont liés à la disposition des rampes inclinées symétriques dans l'adaptateur réversible et dans le dispositif d'attache rapide. Un seul adaptateur réversible avec un profil de contact symétrique assure la reprise des efforts dans les deux modes de fonctionnement, rétro et chouleur. Le profil et l'angle des rampes inclinées sont déterminés pour apporter le meilleur compromis entre reprise d'effort et rattrapage de jeu, et une meilleure transmission des efforts de cavage, évitant la flexion sur l'axe de brochage assurant le verrouillage. Les contraintes mécaniques sont directement reprises par les plaques latérales de l'adaptateur réversible et sont ensuite diluées vers le godet 1 alors que dans l'art antérieur, une reprise centrale des contraintes provoque une flexion-compression de l'axe de brochage assurant le verrouillage, qui est néfaste à la tenue en fatigue. La dissociation entre les pièces assurant, d'une part la reprise des efforts principaux de cavage et d'autre part le verrouillage de l'attache rapide sur l'adaptateur réversible, induit une meilleure gestion de l'usure.The advantages of the invention are linked to the arrangement of the symmetrical inclined ramps in the reversible adapter and in the quick-attach device. A single reversible adapter with a symmetrical contact profile ensures the absorption of forces in the two operating modes, retro and chouleur. The profile and angle of the inclined ramps are determined to provide the best compromise between force absorption and play compensation, and better transmission of the digging forces, avoiding bending on the broaching pin ensuring the locking. The mechanical stresses are directly taken up by the side plates of the reversible adapter and are then diluted towards the cup 1 whereas in the prior art, a central take-up of the stresses causes a bending-compression of the broaching axis ensuring the locking , which is detrimental to fatigue resistance. The dissociation between the parts ensuring, on the one hand the recovery of the main breakout forces and on the other hand the locking of the quick coupler on the reversible adapter, induces better management of wear.
