Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a loading equipment intended for use with working machines such as telehandlers (or telescopic handlers), aerial work platforms or other similar machines.
  • the invention relates to an equipment provided with a particular loading basket that allows the operators to perform special activities at height.
  • Loading baskets are known that comprise a bottom plane, able to support the operators and the equipment, around which bottom plane lateral walls are arranged which have the function of preventing accidental falls of the operators or of the equipment resting on the bottom plane.
  • the baskets are able to be connected to a telescopic lifting arm, with which the working machines are provided, by means of relevant attachment devices.
  • the chimneypots to be removed must be sectioned at the base, therefore close to the surface of the roof and then removed and carried to the ground using a winch; after this, the new chimneypot is lifted off the ground using the winch, brought to the sectioned base and fixed there.
  • US2010276228 discloses an adjustable platform assembly for supporting workers and supplies about an elevated work site, the platform assembly being movably supported on an articulable support, the platform comprising a stationary rear bridging panel arrangement having an elongated side platform member comprising a floor and railing assembly at each end thereof, wherein each elongated side platform member floor and railing assembly is independently movable on support members forwardly, rearwardly, transversely and angularly with respect to the bridging panel arrangement, to change the platform assembly back and forth between a generally "H" shape to a generally "U” shape, or any skewed combination thereof.
  • the technical task underpinning the present invention is therefore to provide a lifting system which obviates the limits of the prior art.
  • 1 indicates a loading equipment intended for use with a telehandler, an aerial work platform or other similar self-propelled working machines.
  • the equipment 1 of the invention has been especially designed for replacing chimneypots C, as mentioned in the description of the prior art, although its use for other operations, usual or special, to be performed at height, is not excluded.
  • the equipment 1 is adapted to be connected to a telescopic lifting arm, possibly articulated, with which the working machine is provided; the machine may have a fixed arm or be equipped with a rotatable turret for rotating the arm and, consequently, the proposed equipment 1.
  • the lifting arm comprises a plurality of segments, inserted with the possibility of sliding into one another, of which one proximal segment is hinged to the machine frame or to the rotary turret, and a distal segment that mounts an attachment device for the removable fitting of the equipment 1.
  • the equipment 1 is provided with a fitting device 10 designed for anchoring the arm attachment device, according to known ways.
  • the equipment 1 may be rotatable with respect to an axis that passes through the fitting device 10; in particular, such device may include a joint on which a movement device can act, preferably of the hydraulic type.
  • the movements of the arm and the rotation of the equipment 1 are preferably realised through hydraulic devices such as, for example, hydraulic cylinders, upon the activation of one or more hydraulic (preferably electro-hydraulic) distributors or other types of activation apparatuses, not depicted because they may also be of the known type.
  • hydraulic devices such as, for example, hydraulic cylinders
  • the movement devices are electromechanical and not hydraulic.
  • the equipment 1 includes a loading basket 2 which comprises a bottom plane 20, able to support the operators and the working equipment 1.
  • the bottom plane 20 (or "bottom”, as it will also be called below) is associated with lateral walls 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, preferably reticular, for the purpose of preventing any accidental fall of the operators, the equipment 1 or other objects.
  • the lateral walls 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28 rise from the bottom 20, preferably perpendicularly, defining a sort of cage that is open at the top.
  • the equipment 1 also includes a winch 3 physically and functionally associated with the basket 2, which will be described in more detail below.
  • the lateral walls 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28 are arranged at the sides of the perimeter of the bottom 20 and more precisely are mounted on the upper surface of the bottom 20, at the perimeter edge thereof.
  • the basket 2 is generally C-shaped and has a housing S at the front intended to receive the chimneypot C, so as to cover it on three consecutive sides.
  • the bottom 20 of the basket 2 is preferably C-shaped itself and is provided with a rear portion 200, joined to the fitting device 10 and that may be rectangular or however quadrangular, from which two projecting portions 201, 202 extend in the front direction, which may also be quadrangular, separate from one another to define a recess R between them, which in turn is square or more generally quadrangular.
  • a “recess” means an empty space that extends towards the inside of the bottom 20; in practice, the basket 2 has a rectangular shape apart from a quadrangular recess R afforded at the longest front side.
  • the mentioned recess R identifies a housing space S in the basket 2 for the chimneypot C.
  • the chimneypot C is therefore between the two branches of the basket 2 which are defined by the projecting portions 201, 202 of the bottom 20, while it faces the central section of the basket 2.
  • the recess R of the bottom plane 20 is U-shaped, defined by three consecutive sides R1, R2, R3 at an angle to one other (shown in figure 5 ), preferably orthogonal two by two; in practice, the internal sides R1, R2 of the projecting portions 201, 202 of the bottom 20 are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the connecting side.
  • the perimeter of the bottom 20 of the basket 2 has a profile that has a recess R that could also have a shape different from that shown in the figures.
  • peripheral boundary is used in this description in a general sense for indicating the peripheral boundary of the bottom plane 20, which could also comprise curved sections.
  • the basket 2 is closed by lateral walls 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28 on all sides of the perimeter, defining a closed enclosure; in the embodiment shown in the appended tables of drawings, the bottom 20 is limited by eight rectilinear sides and, therefore, the basket 2 includes eight lateral walls 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28.
  • One or more of the lateral walls 21, 22, 23 located at the sides R1, R2, R3 of the recess R is movable and, preferably, is removably fixed to the bottom surface 20, allowing the operators to directly access the chimneypot C with their tools.
  • the three lateral walls 21, 22, 23 alongside the housing space S are removable from the sides of the recess R1, R2, R3, i.e. from the respective safe positions, and transferable to corresponding working positions, where they are fixed temporarily during the sectioning operations of the chimneypot C (compare figures 1 - 4 ).
  • two of the internal lateral walls 22, 23 preferably the ones facing each other, are brought into a respective working position in which they are adjacent to other lateral walls, e.g. the most external lateral walls 24, 25 with which they are parallel (see figures 4 and 5 ).
  • the other internal lateral wall 21, preferably the central one, is brought to the mouth of the housing volume S, to define a connection between the two end front lateral walls 26, 27, so as to completely surround the chimneypot C (see figure 4 ); in practice, this internal lateral wall 21 closes the space between the two front lateral walls 26, 27, arranged at the end of the aforementioned projecting portions 201, 202, defining a single front continuous lateral wall 21, 26, 27.
  • a relevant attachment means is provided which may comprise a plurality of pins 31 located below the lateral walls 21, 22, 23 and holes 32 afforded on the upper surface of the bottom plane 20 of the basket 2, adapted to house the corresponding pins 31.
  • the invention may also provide a means 4 for detecting whether the lateral walls 21, 22, 23 are in the safe position or in the working position, which will be described in detail below.
  • the equipment 1 of the invention may comprise one or more modular platforms 5, of variable lengths, removably coupled to respective sides R1, R2, R3 of the recess R.
  • the invention provides a walkable support that extends from the bottom 20 of the basket 2 in the housing space S, to allow the operator to work in close proximity to the chimneypot C, to the full advantage of the effectiveness and safety of the operations performed.
  • the length of the platforms 5 is adjustable, according to methods described below, so as to be able to adapt to the different sizes of the specific chimneypot C to be cut; in detail, if the chimneypot C is wider, the platforms 5 will be narrower and vice versa.
  • the platforms 5 define an open (U-shaped) frame applied at the recess R of the bottom 20 of the basket 2, preferably with a substantially longitudinal continuous extension.
  • each platform 5 comprises a plurality of reduction elements 51, 52, arranged consecutively to each other, and substantially located in the plane in which the bottom 20 of the basket 2 lies.

  • Each reduction element 51, 52 is rigid, e.g. made of aluminium, preferably elongated, and has been devised to be mounted parallel to a corresponding side R1, R2, R3 of the recess R.
  • each reduction element 51, 52 may have a trapezoidal shape, defining platforms 5 that are tapered towards the outside; this characteristic allows the continuity of the support to be defined along the three sides R1, R2, R3 of the recess R.
  • each side R1, R2, R3 of the recess R the use of a plurality of reducing elements 51, 52, of variable length, is envisaged, each comprising a first and a second side 50, 500 opposite one another (see figure 5 ), wherein the first side 50 is adapted to be placed in contact with a side R1, R2, R3 of the recess R or with the second side 500 of a different reducing element 51, 52.
  • each platform 5 comprises at least two, but preferably three or more reducing elements 51, 52, including a first element 51 provided with its own first side 50 which directly abuts on a respective side R1, R2, R3 of the recess R and a second opposite side 500, the latter being provided for coming into contact with the first side 50 of a second reducing element 52 and so on.
  • the reducing element 51, 52 has a substantially trapezoidal shape
  • its largest base is defined by the first side 50 and the smallest base is defined by the second side 500.
  • the first side 50 is at most al long as the respective side R1, R2, R3 of the recess R of the support plane 20 or as long as the second side 500 of a different reducing element 52; in other words, the first side 50 of the first element 51 (the most internal one) of each platform 5 is at most as long as the side R1, R2, R3 of the recess R with which it is to come into contact, whereas the second side 500, shorter than the first, comes into contact directly with the first side 50 of the second element 52 which is at most as long as the second side 500 of the first element 51 and so on.
  • threaded holes can be afforded on the edges of the sides R1, R2, R3 of the recess R and through holes can be afforded in the thickness of the elements, that can be aligned with one another to allow the insertion of fixing screws 6.
  • the invention may comprise one or more detection devices 4, mounted on the basket 2, and adapted to detect whether the internal lateral walls 21, 22, 23 are in the safe position and adapted to produce warning signals according to the detections performed.
  • the invention makes it possible to detect whether the internal lateral walls 21, 22, 23 are all in their safe position, in which they are placed at the respective sides R1, R2, R3 of the recess R, in which case it is possible to safely move the equipment 1 or whether at least one of the lateral walls 21, 22, 23 is not in the safe position, therefore the device 4 emits a warning signal adapted to lock the support arm and possibly any other movements that can be performed by the equipment 1 itself.
  • the detection devices may comprise switches 4 operating at the aforementioned holes 32 afforded in the bottom surface 20 of the basket 2, such switches 4 being activated by the corresponding pin 31 when it is inserted in or removed from the hole itself (see figure 6 ).
