Definitions

  • the invention relates to an adapter for a quick-change system according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention also relates to a quick-change device that fits the adapter and a quick-change system with such an adapter and quick-change device.
  • a prior art quick coupler is in EN20201707699U1 disclosed.
  • Such quick-change systems are used for easy and convenient changing of different attachments on construction machines.
  • quick-change systems e.g. swivel buckets, grabs, shears, compactors, magnets, hydraulic hammers or other attachments can be coupled or uncoupled in a few seconds and with a high safety standard from a driver's cab e.g. on a boom of an excavator.
  • the attachment side usually contain an adapter on the attachment side and a quick coupler arranged on the construction machine, which has, for example, jaw-shaped first receptacles on one side for retaining a first coupling element and on the other side second receptacles with at least one locking element that can be moved between a release position and a locking position for releasable retaining having a second coupling element.
  • a quick coupler arranged on the construction machine, which has, for example, jaw-shaped first receptacles on one side for retaining a first coupling element and on the other side second receptacles with at least one locking element that can be moved between a release position and a locking position for releasable retaining having a second coupling element.
  • the adapter which can be fastened to an attachment, has a supporting body with two bolt-shaped coupling elements arranged at a predetermined distance from one another for connecting the adapter to a quick coupler.
  • a coupling element carrier for holding coupling elements on the adapter side for a coupling with coupling elements on the quick coupler side is fastened to one of the two bolt-shaped coupling elements.
  • the coupling element carrier is connected to the coupling element via rigid connecting webs.
  • the coupling elements in the known quick-change systems are usually mounted in the coupling element carrier via rubber rings or other separate damping elements.
  • these separate storage and damping elements can wear out differently and thus lead to malfunctions.
  • the object of the invention is to create an adapter, a quick-change device that fits the adapter, and a quick-change system with such an adapter and quick-change device that enable an improved and less sensitive connection.
  • the coupling element carrier is connected to the coupling element via one or more resilient holding webs.
  • the entire clutch element carrier can yield due to the resilient holding web(s), whereby the clutch elements arranged in the clutch element carrier are protected against impacts and damage caused thereby, even without separate damping elements.
  • the spring-loaded holding webs also enable an improved damping effect, which enables a much faster reaction to load changes than was possible with the conventional separate damping elements. As a result, a uniform contact pressure between the coupling elements can also be achieved.
  • the resilient retaining webs can also dampen vibrations that are generated, for example, by changes in oil pressure in the hydraulic lines connected to the coupling elements. In this way, damage to the weld seams, the coupling element carrier or the coupling elements caused by vibrations or resonances can be avoided.
  • one or more resilient upper retaining webs and one or more resilient lower retaining webs can be attached to the coupling element carrier be arranged.
  • the spring effect of the holding webs can be achieved in a particularly simple and advantageous manner in that the holding webs are of arcuate design.
  • the at least one upper holding web has an upper engagement part that projects upwards relative to the coupling element carrier for engagement in a corresponding recess of the quick coupler.
  • the upper engagement part of the holding web can expediently be wedge-shaped and have rounded or beveled upper edges. As a result, the engagement of the holding web in the corresponding recess during the coupling process can be facilitated.
  • a good connection of the holding webs to the coupling element can be achieved in that the resilient holding webs have an indentation adapted to the shape of the coupling element on their side facing the coupling element.
  • the invention also relates to a quick coupler associated with the adapter described above. This has at least one recess for engaging the resilient holding web. As a result, the spring deflection of the at least one resilient holding web on the adapter can be limited. Furthermore, the invention relates to a quick-change system with such a quick-change device and an adapter described above.
  • FIG. 1 and 2 is a quick-change system with a quick-change device 1 that can be mounted, for example, on a boom of an excavator and an adapter 2 that can be attached to an attachment for easy changing of attachments on vehicles, in particular construction machinery, during a coupling process ( figure 1 ) and in a coupled position ( figure 2 ) shown.
  • a quick-change system for example, swivel buckets, grippers, shears, magnets, compactors, hydraulic hammers or other mechanical or hydraulic attachments can be easily and conveniently coupled to or decoupled from a driver's cab on a boom or other attachment of a construction vehicle.
  • the adapter 2 that can be coupled to the quick coupler 1 contains a support body consisting of a base plate 3 and two side parts 4 with two spaced-apart coupling elements 5 and 6.
  • the coupling elements 5 and 6 used to connect to the quick coupler 1 are between the two parallel, perpendicular to Base plate 3 arranged and spaced apart side parts 4 are arranged.
  • a bolt-shaped first coupling element 5 and a bolt-shaped second coupling element 6 arranged at a predetermined distance therefrom for the detachable connection to the quick coupler 2 are provided between the two cheek-shaped side parts 4 of the supporting body.
  • the two bolt-shaped coupling elements 5 and 6 are inserted with their respective ends into corresponding bores 7 and 8 in the two side parts 4 of the adapter 2 and fixed there.
  • quick coupler 1 has on one side first receptacles 9 for receiving and holding the first bolt-shaped coupling element 5 and on the other side second receptacles 10 for receiving and holding the second bolt-shaped coupling element 6 on.
  • the quick coupler 1 contains a carrier 11 which contains two fork-shaped or claw-shaped first receptacles 9 for the first coupling element 5 on its rear side and two downwardly open receptacles 10 for the second coupling element 6 on the front side.
  • continuous receiving openings 13 for fastening bolts, not shown, for fastening the quick coupler 1 to a boom of an excavator or a connecting part of another construction vehicle are provided on two parallel side parts 12 arranged on the upper side of the carrier 11 .
  • the second receptacles 10 arranged at the front here have a curved lower contact surface 14 for contacting the second bolt-shaped coupling element 6 .
  • the carrier 11 contains a guide bore 15 for receiving a locking element, not shown here.
  • a locking element designed here as a locking bolt is arranged in each of the guide bores 15 so that it can be displaced hydraulically between a retracted release position and an extended locking position.
  • the second receptacles 10 which are open at the bottom, are closed by the bolt-shaped locking elements on the underside, so that the second bolt-shaped coupling element 6 is reached under by the two locking elements and the adapter 2 can be held on the quick coupler 1.
  • the quick coupler 1 which is usually arranged on a boom of an excavator, is first moved in such a way that the first bolt-shaped coupling element 5 on the adapter 1 according to FIG figure 1 is retracted into the claw-shaped first recordings 9 on one side of the quick coupler 1. Then, with the locking elements still pulled back, the quick coupler 1 is pivoted about the first bolt-shaped coupling element 5 in such a way that the second bolt-shaped coupling element 6 on the adapter 2 comes to rest on the contact surfaces 14 of the receptacles 10, which are open at the bottom, on the other side of the quick coupler 2.
  • the bolt-shaped locking elements arranged to be displaceable in the guide bores 15 can be extended, so that the second bolt-shaped coupling element 6 on the adapter 2 is separated from the two bolt-shaped locking elements on the quick coupler 1 and the adapter 2 is thus held on the quick coupler 1.
  • FIG 6 the adapter 2 that can be coupled with the quick coupler 1 is shown.
  • a coupling element carrier 18 provided with a plurality of openings 16 and 17 for holding coupling elements on the adapter side for a coupling with coupling elements 2 on the quick coupler side is fastened to the second coupling element 6 on the locking side of the adapter 2 .
  • the arranged on the coupling element carrier 18 - not shown here - adapter-side coupling elements can be automatically connected to corresponding energy supply lines on the quick coupler 1 to power the attachment on the adapter 2 provided power connections when coupling the adapter 2 to the quick coupler 1.
  • an attachment can be supplied with hydraulic fluid, electrical energy or another energy source, for example.
  • Coupling element carrier 18 shown enlarged is arranged parallel to the coupling element 6 and is designed as a carrier bar in the embodiment shown.
  • the coupling element carrier 18 several hole-shaped receptacles 16 and 17 are provided for suitable connections or coupling elements.
  • Resilient retaining webs 19 and 20 for fastening the coupling element carrier 18 to the coupling element 6 are arranged on the coupling element carrier 18 .
  • the spring effect of the holding webs 19 and 20 can be achieved, for example, by appropriate dimensioning and shaping of the holding webs 19 and 20.
  • the retaining webs 19 and 20 are arcuate. As a result, the entire coupling element carrier 18 can deviate not only upwards or downwards but also laterally in the event of corresponding loads. Flexibility is also achieved in the axial direction of the hole-shaped receptacles.
  • the two mutually parallel upper holding webs 19 and two mutually parallel lower holding webs 20 are attached to the strip-shaped coupling element carrier 18 .
  • the two upper retaining webs 19 are designed in the form of an upwardly arched arch and have an upper engagement part 21 that projects upwards relative to the coupling element carrier 18 and a front part 22 that projects downwards again from the upper engagement part 21 and has an indentation 23 for attachment to the coupling element 6 on.
  • the two lower retaining bars 20 are in the form of a downward arched arc formed. They have a lower part 24 that projects downwards relative to the coupling element carrier 18 and a front part 25 that projects upwards again from the lower part 24 and has an indentation 26 for attachment to the coupling element 6 .
  • the shape of the indentations 23 and 26 is adapted to the contour of the bolt-shaped coupling element 6 . As a result, good contact for welding the holding webs 19 and 20 to the coupling element 6 is achieved.
  • the carrier 11 has a limiting device 27 for limiting the spring deflection of the two upper holding webs 19 .
  • the limiting device 27 is formed by recesses 28 for receiving the upper engagement part 21 of the two upper holding webs 19.
  • the two recesses 28 are designed in such a way that they form a defined clearance for the holding webs 19 both to the side and to the top. As a result, a clearly defined spring deflection for the retaining webs 19 can be specified.
  • the two recesses are designed as oblong holes with a slightly larger width than the holding webs 19 .
  • the two upper holding webs 19 engage with their upper engagement parts 21 in the corresponding recesses 28 in the carrier 11 of the quick coupler 1 .
  • the upper part 21 of the retaining ribs is wedge-shaped and has rounded or beveled corners 29 .
