Description

HYDRAULIC PIN CONNECTION DEVICE FOR PRACTICAL INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL OF DIFFERENT WORK TOOL ATTACHMENTS TO CONSTRUCTION MACHINERY.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The invention is about the device which is specifically designed for practical installation and removal of different work tool attachments such as bucket, hydraulic rock breaker, ripper, hydraulic vibrating ripper, hydraulic shear and forklift fork to construction machines such as excavator, backhoe loader, crane, and telescopic crane.

The invention is particularly about the device which is configured for practical attachment/removal of different work tool attachments such as bucket, hydraulic rock breaker, ripper, hydraulic vibrating ripper, hydraulic shear, forklift fork to construction machines such as excavator, backhoe loader, crane, and telescopic crane.

The device achieves this via this configuration and working principle;

Two hydraulic pin connection devices, which are capable of moving in both ways (inwards and outwards) with hydraulic control valves which are controlled by the operator, are located separately on the bodies that are formed on the lower ends of the arm and H-Link of the construction machine. The device also contains the double pilot operated check valve with twin rod, which provides oil flow to the system via the hydraulic oil canals. The operator first aligns the arm attachment alignment jaws located on the body that is formed on the arm, with the attachment arm connection ear sleeves located on the top of the work tool attachment and establishes the arm connection via commanding the device. With the operator commanding the device again, the hydraulic pins will move outwards, thus establishing the attachment arm connection ear sleeve-arm connection. After that, the operator establishes the H-Link connection and fixes the H- link to the H-link connection ear sleeves of the work tool attachment using the H-link fixing jaw which is located on the top of the attachment cylinder and the H-link rest wedge which is located on the arm of the construction machine. To remove the attachment tool, the operator commands the device and the hydraulic pins will move inwards, and come off from the attachment arm connection ear sleeves of the arm and from the attachment H-link ear sleeve of the H-link. In this way, the removal process is done practically. PREVIOUS TECHNIQUE

At the present day, construction machines such as excavators, backhoe loaders, cranes and telescopic cranes are used for excavation, loading, demolition works, mainly and particularly in construction industry.

As described, different work tool attachments are attached to construction machines such as bucket, hydraulic rock breaker, ripper, hydraulic vibrating ripper, hydraulic shear, and forklift fork so that different works can be accomplished.

In the conventional technique, ear sleeves are fixed on both sides to the top of each work tool attachment so that the installation and removal can be accomplished. The attachment of the excavator arm to the ear sleeves of the working tool is done via using pins that are large in diameter and heavy.

Once the task of the work tool is done, it must be removed from the arm of the construction machine so that another work tool can be attached to the arm of the construction machine. In this case, the operator accomplishes the installation process via the help of another worker. The worker removes the heavy pins that are holding the attachment together and then re-installs them again to the ear sleeves of the work tool in order to attach the tool to the arm of the excavator. As specified, this way of attachment of work tools is very hard and laborious. Considering the costs of the worker and extra fuel consumption combined with continuous wear of the machine, this method causes poor work profit and extra costs.

In a research about the known attachment techniques, patent number US6254331 has been found. When the contents of the relevant patent are examined, it is understood that the configuration of the attachment system consists of a spring-loaded device pushing and grasping the ear sleeve of the bucket. Looking at the disadvantages of this device, the total weight of the metal used for the production of the system, for example for a model that is built for an excavator of 35 tons, is approximately 600 kg. The machine is forced to work continuously with the specified excess weight as long as it uses the device. In this case, due to the weight of the device the fuel consumption will increase, the weight will affect badly the mobility of the arm, and accordingly shorten the life span of pins and bushings on the connection points and will increase the risk of cracking the arm and boom body of the machinery.

Since the work tool attachment is installed on the arm of the construction machine, it extends the arm's length by approximately 40 cm, thus reducing the plucking power of the construction machine. In addition, when the work machine is working with a heavy attachment, such as a hydraulic rock breaker, the device body can withstand this weight for up to two or three years, and this eventually results to deformation and causes fractures and cracks to form on the body of the device. Although repairs can be done, material fatigue occurs in the metal used for the manufacture of the device. Thus, any repair attempts will eventually end up with fails.

In another research about the conventional techniques, patent application number US6481124 was found. When the content of the relevant patent is examined, it is found out that the device consists of a hydraulic system which works by pushing the hydraulic piston to grasp the bucket's pin. Although it is a bit more technologically advanced compared to the previous device described, this system has all the drawbacks of the previous patent number US6254331.

There are different patents all about the conventional techniques, as stated above. However, they all are very similar in design, thus carrying all the disadvantages specified above.

As a result, it is clearly necessary to develop the relevant technical field due to the above- mentioned negativity of the technique in its known state.

THE PURPOSE OF THE INVENTION

Because of the negativity that exists in the previous technique, the invention aims to solve all the negativity described.

The purpose of the invention is to design and form the hydraulic pin connection device in order to ensure that different work tool attachment, such as bucket, hydraulic rock breaker, ripper, hydraulic vibrating ripper, hydraulic shear, forklift fork, can be attached to different working machines such as excavator, backhoe loader, crane, and telescopic crane.

Another purpose of the invention is to design and form the hydraulic pin device which achieves easy and practical installation and removal of the work tool attachment to the construction machine, via the following configuration and working principle;

Two hydraulic pin connection devices, which are capable of moving in both ways (inwards and outwards) with hydraulic control valves which are controlled by the operator, are located separately on the bodies that are formed on the lower ends of the arm and H-Link of the construction machine. The device also contains the double pilot operated check valve with twin rod, which provides oil flow to the system via the hydraulic oil canals. The operator first aligns the arm attachment alignment jaws located on the body that is formed on the arm, with the attachment arm connection ear sleeves located on the top of the work tool attachment and establishes the arm connection via commanding the device. With the operator commanding the device again, the hydraulic pins will move outwards, thus establishing the attachment arm connection ear sleeve-arm connection. After that, the operator establishes the H-Link connection and fixes the H- link to the H-link connection ear sleeves of the work tool attachment using the H-link fixing jaw which is located on the top of the attachment cylinder and the H-link rest wedge which is located on the arm of the construction machine. To remove the attachment tool, the operator commands the device and the hydraulic pins will move inwards, and come off from the attachment arm connection ear sleeves of the arm and from the attachment H-link ear sleeve of the H-link. In this way, the removal process is done practically.

Another purpose of the invention is to achieve the embedment and installation of the hydraulic pin connection device to the bodies that are formed on the lower sides of the arm and H-link of the working machine without a requirement of change in the dimension and measurements of the arm and H-link of the construction machine and as for the weight of the device, the aim is to reduce the weight of the device designed by up to % 55. (For example, 270 kg weight for an excavator of 35 tons) Since there is no change in the length dimensions of the arm and H-link of the machine, and because there is not a lot of extra weight is carried by the arm, a remarkable increase occurs in the plucking power of the construction machine, mobility of the arm and fuel consumption of the engine.

Another purpose of the invention is to ensure the security of the system and that the hydraulic pin connection device is secured by the lock valve. This way, the operator is spared from the hassle of installing/removing the work tool attachment and removing the safety pin, which is a heavy part like it is in other inventions, and the safety valve will keep the pins locked in the forward position, preventing possible accidents.

Another purpose of the invention is to enable the operator to intervene in a short period of time with the corresponding deformation of the hydraulic pin connection device, which cannot fulfill its task due to the parts that have been deformed in the system and a replacement of parts is required. In this way, since the work machine can be activated in a short time, the labor force and the costs related to it are eliminated. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES

This way, the body (B2.1) on the arm (B2) and the attachment arm connection ear sleeve (Cl. a) connection distances and linings are adjusted.

While the body connection distances and linings of the body (B2.1) formed on the arm (B2) and the attachment arm connection ear sleeve (Cl. a) are adjusted, with the operator commanding the construction machine;

The pressurized oil flow coming from the construction machine (B) to the hydraulic pin connection device (A) passes from inside of the union fitting (16) and the hydraulic manifold (18) located on the double pilot operated check valve with twin rod (1) and is compressed between the double pilot operated check valve body (23) and pilot piston (31) and moves the pilot piston (31) with the pressure it forms, thus applies force to the poppet valve (26) via the pressure of the spring (27) located in the check valve body (23) . From there, the hydraulic oil flow allows the other oils in passive condition located in other oil canals (29) to return to the construction machine (B) via the oil canal (30) while moving the right and the left pins (2) (3) forward. During this process, the right and the left pins (2) (3) pass through the bushings (C3) located on the work tool attachment (C) and reach and rest to the pin support part (10). While the operator commands the construction machine (B), he cuts off the hydraulic oil flow thus, the pilot piston (31) cuts off the pressure it applies to the poppet valve (26). This causes the poppet valve (26) to apply pressure back to the check valve body (23) and to cut off the oil flow in the oil canals by force and locks (29) (30). This way, the poppet valve enables the right and the left pins (2) (3) to lock and stay safely in their positions. In this way, the connection process of the body (B2.1) on the arm (B2) and the attachment arm connection ear sleeve (Cl. a) is completed. Afterwards, with the operator commanding the construction machine, (B) the boom (Bl), arm (B2) and the H-link (B3) are moved together and the boom (Bl) is lifted up from the ground approximately about 1 (one) meter enabling the attachment (C) to lift up from the ground. Next, the H-link (B3) is taken to the maximum reverse position, thus enabling the H-link (B3) to get into the fixed position via the H-link fixing jaw (53) and the H-link rest wedge, bringing the arm (B2) to closed position, thus enabling the attachment (C) to automatically approach to the H-link via the effect of the gravity. Afterwards, the attachment H-link connection ear sleeve (Cl.b) which is located on the attachment (C) is linked to the H-link attachment alignment jaw (52) which is located on the body (B3.1) formed on the H-link (B3). In this way, the connection distance and the lining between the body (B3.1) formed on the H-link (B3) and the attachment H-link connection ear sleeve (Cl.b) are adjusted.

While the connection distance and the linings between the body (B3.1) formed on the H- link (B3) and the attachment H-link connection ear sleeve (Cl.b) are adjusted, with the operator commanding the construction machine;

The pressurized oil flow coming from the construction machine (B) to the hydraulic pin connection device (A) passes from inside of the union fitting and the hydraulic manifold located on the double pilot operated check valve with twin rod (1) and is compressed between the check valve body (23) and pilot piston (31) and moves the pilot piston (31) with the pressure it forms, thus applies force to the poppet valve (26) via the pressure of the spring (27) located in the check valve body (23) . From there, the hydraulic oil allows the other oils in passive condition located in other oil canals (29) to return to the construction machine (B) via the oil canal (30) while moving the right and the left pins (2) (3) forward. During this process, the right and the left pins (2) (3) pass through the bushings (C3) located on the work tool attachment (C) and reach and rest to the pin support part (10). While the operator commands the construction machine (B), he cuts off the hydraulic oil flow thus, the pilot piston (31) cuts off the pressure it applies to the poppet valve (26). This causes the poppet valve (26) to apply pressure back to the check valve body (23) and to cut off the oil flow in the oil canals by force and locks (29) (30). This way, the poppet valve enables the right and the left pins (2) (3) to lock and stay safely in their positions. In this way, the connection process between the body (B3.1) formed on the H-link (B3) and the attachment H-link connection ear sleeve (Cl.b) is completed. When another use of work tool attachment (C) is needed after the work is done, with the operator commanding the construction machine;

The pressurized oil flow coming from the construction machine (B) to the hydraulic pin connection device (A) passes from inside of the union fitting (16) and the hydraulic manifold (18) located on the double pilot operated check valve with twin rod (1) and is compressed between the check valve body (23) and pilot piston (31) and moves the pilot piston (31) with the pressure it forms, thus applies force to the poppet valve (26) via the pressure of the spring (27) located in the check valve body (23) . From there, the hydraulic oil allows the other oils in passive condition located in other oil canals (30) to return to the construction machine (B) via the oil canal (29) , while moving the right and the left pins (2) (3) backward. During this process, the right and the left pins (2) (3) pull off and exit from the bushings (C3) and from the pin support part (10) located on the work tool attachment (C). Thus, the installation between the body (B2.1) located on the arm (B2), the body (B3.1) located on the H-link (B3) and the attachment arm connection sleeve (Cl. a) and the attachment H-link connection ear sleeve (Cl.b) is removed. While the operator commands the construction machine (B), he cuts off the hydraulic oil flow thus, the pilot piston (31) cuts off the pressure it applies to the poppet valve (26). This causes the poppet valve (26) to apply pressure back to the check valve body (23) and to cut off and lock the oil flow in the oil canals(29) (30) by force. This way, the poppet valve enables the right and the left pins (2) (3) to lock and stay safely in their positions.

As stated above, the attachment of a different work tool attachment (C) to the construction machine (B) can be done effortlessly.
