Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to the technical field concerning the mechanical connection and it refers to a safety device for the connection of tools, particularly for the detachable connection of buckets or other tools to driving means as articulated arms.
- There are known hooking means for tools, such as for buckets and percussion hammers for demolition, provided with a body fixed to such tools and with a second member blocked to a support as the extremity of an articulated arm.
- Such known devices normally are provided with pins or prismatic elements fit to be inserted into slots of the elements for their mutual detachable coupling and blocking. Said devices sometimes are also provided with safety lock fit to stop the pins or the prismatic elements.
- A drawback of such known safety blocks consists in that some of them need the manual operation also during closure, causing loss of time and risks for the operators, and others have closures provided with pins protruding from the tool, and dangerous for the workers and easily to be damaged.
- Other drawback of such known safety devices consists in that they cause big stress and high frictions causing excessive usury and risks of facture.
- Some of such known devices have an opening driving pin screwed to a rotating block means.
- A drawback of such devices consists in that, in case the driving pin is broken, that can be caused by operators' errors or excessive efforts, the threaded portion of the broken pin occludes the female thread of the rotating block means preventing the connection of a new pin, so it causes big delay and lose of time to open the device and to remove the tools from the articulated arm until the intervention of a specialized operator.
- An object of the present invention is to propose a safety device for the connections of tools can be operated automatically when the arm is approaching to the tool, without losing any time and without risks for the operator.

- With reference to the figures 1 - 20,
numeral 1 indicates the safety device for the connection of tools, object of the present invention, provided with afirst member 2 fit to be fixed to asupport 101, consisting in a hydraulic articulated arm of an operating means, and provided with asecond member 3 fit to be fixed to atool 100, consisting in a bucket for ground moving. The twomembers - The
first member 2 comprises slidingmeans 22 for an arrest means 7, constrained to slide inside it, due to drivingmeans 15, between two extreme conditions internal N and external E. in this latter external condition E, the arrest means detachably engages a respective housing means 9 of thesecond member 3 realizing the connection condition C in cooperation with first 5 and second 6 hook means sited on the opposite extremities of saidmembers - The hooking means comprise
recesses 5 fit to insert or to remove pins 6 in a predetermined mutual inclined position between themembers - The
device 1 comprises feeler pin means 20, rotationally connected to thefirst member 2 and rotated by the approaching of theother member 3 during the achievement of the connection condition C, in order to match the driving means 15 causing of the motion thereof in direction of the extreme external condition E of the arrest means 7. - The driving means 15 comprise a set of
elastic means 16, consisting in compressed helicoids springs, pushing the arrest means 7 in direction of the extreme external condition E. The driving means 15 furthermore comprise block means 18, having an elongated shape, housed in acavity 17 the arrest means 7. - One first extremity of block means 18 has a connection means 36 for a driving
pin 21 that rotates in arespective seat 37 of thefirst member 2 of the arrest means 7. - The block means 18 is provided with a second hook shaped
extremity 38 matching, in the external extreme condition E, one shapedprotrusion 19 of thecavity 17 in order to prevent the arrest means 7 from sliding towards inside ofdevice 1. - The second extremity of the block means 18 is also provided with a plane means 39 laterally carried out and matching, in the internal extreme condition N, a correspondent
plain portion 40 of thecavity 17 in order to prevent theelastic means 16 from moving the arrest means 7 towards the external of thedevice 1. - In order to make the extreme inner condition N more stabile, the plane means 39 is inclined in respect to a plane orthogonal to a line joining the same plane means 39 to the connection means 36 for the driving
pin 21; in such a manner the release of the arrest means 7 from the internal extreme condition N requests the application of a sufficient force to obtain a bigger compression of the elastic means. - Therefore, starting from the inner extreme condition, the rotation of the
block 18 in a first direction provokes the release of the arrest means 7 that, under the action ofelastic means 16, moves until the external extreme condition E in which it's blocked by the block means itself preventing the accidental exit from thehousing 9 of thesecond member 3 so providing a safe connection condition C. - The rotation of the block means 18 in a second direction, opposite to the first one, provokes the release of the arrest means 7 and, overcoming the force of the elastic means, its translation until the internal extreme condition N in which it is removably blocked by the block means 18.
- To facilitate the moving of the arrest means 7 in the direction of the internal extreme condition N by means of the rotation in the second direction of the driving
pin 21, the block means 18 laterally comprises acam portion 41 bordering on the plane means 39, fit to match in sliding manner acorresponding portion 42 of thecavity 17. - The arrest means 7 is equipped with a spring means 43 protruding in the
cavity 17 in order to match the block means 18 in the external extreme condition E, keeping in such condition, the second hook shapedextremity 38 of the block means 18 in elastic matching against theshaped protrusion 19 of thecavity 17. - The driving
pin 21 has anexternal head 44, drivable by means of akey 45 for the rotation of astem 46 an extremity thereof having aninsert 47 for the connection means 36 of the block means 18. - The
insert 47 and the connection means 36 are almost complementary shaped and have respective anti-rotational plans almost parallel to their longitudinal axis. - The
stem 46 is provided with anannual housing 48 adjacent to thehead 44 and fit to be engaged by the edges of an open slot of anarrest plate 49 that can be detached for the drivingpin 21 disassembling by means of the simply removal of the fixing screws of thearrest plate 49. - In this way, it is possible, quickly and easily, to extract and to replace a broken driving pin with a spare part without the intervention of a specialist.
- The feeler pin means 20 comprises a rotating
connection 32 to thefirst member 2 and has afirst extremity 30 and asecond extremity 31 with matching curved surfaces and respectively fit to match thesecond member 3 and the block means 18. - Such matching of the
second extremity 31 with the block means 18 causes the release and the rotation of this latter allowing the elastic means 16 to push the arrest means 7 towards the external extreme condition E when the members are approaching in the connection condition C. - Thus such approaching between
members housing 9 of the arrest means 7 and the blocking of this latter by the blocking means 18 obtaining a safety connection condition. - The rotating
connection 32 comprises a passing hole of the feeler pin means 20 and arespective pin 33 blocked in one concave housing 34 ofrespective member arrest plate 35 fixed by means of screws or welding. - The
rotating connection 32, the first 30 and the second 31 extremities of the feeler pin means 20 are disposed at the angles of a triangle and thepin 33 of the rotating connection is orthogonal to the drivingpin 21. - The arrest means 7 is approximately shaped as a flattened parallelepiped with almost flat main faces first 13 and second 14.
- The second
main face 14 has, close to its one transversal edge in respect to sliding direction D, awedge surface 10 inclined toward thefirst face 13. - The
wedge surface 10 terminates with at least asafety portion 115 joined to thesecond face 14 by saidwedge surface 10. - The
safety portion 115 is parallel to themain faces wedge surface 10. - The hooking means, first 5 and second 6, are disposed on the sides of the
members wedge surface 10 and to the housing means 9. - An advantage of the present invention is to provide an automatic safety device for connecting the tool when the arm is approaching to the tool, without loss of time and without risks for the operator.
- Other advantage is to provide a reliable, strong and simple device and in which the driving pin can be easily replaced in any condition and also in case of fault.
