Definitions

  • the invention concerns an arrangement for a construction machine, wherein the arrangement comprises a machine frame and an articulated boom.
  • the articulated boom is arranged on the machine frame.
  • the invention also concerns a construction machine, which comprises a chassis for moving the construction machine on a ground and an upper structure.
  • the upper structure is arranged on the chassis and comprises a machine frame and an articulated boom.
  • the invention further concerns a method for changing an operational mode of a construction machine, which has a machine frame and an articulated boom.
  • the invention also concerns a method for retro-fitting a construction machine.
  • Construction machines which have an articulated boom at the front or back of a machine frame, wherein said articulated boom can be operated in different operational modes.
  • a multi-operational boom design is commonly realized by hydraulically operated boom arms, wherein selected positioning cylinders of the articulated boom may be activated to hold selected boom arms in place. Positioning cylinders of further boom arms, which are not held in place, may be activated to execute requested articulations and movements of said further arms.
  • different operational modes are basically realized by holding different arms of the articulated boom in place.
  • stiffness and load handling capabilities of the articulated boom in said different operational modes are only defined and limited by relative positions and interactions of boom arms and positioning cylinders of the articulated boom, respectively.
  • an arrangement for a construction machine comprises a machine frame and an articulated boom.
  • the articulated boom is arranged on the machine frame.
  • the articulated boom comprises a proximal arm and a distal arm, wherein the proximal arm is mounted in an articulated manner to the machine frame and the distal arm is connected in an articulated manner to the proximal arm.
  • the arrangement is configured to be operated in an operational mode in which the proximal arm and the machine frame are interlocked.
  • the arrangement according to the present invention may be provided for different kinds of construction machines, preferably for a combined loader-excavator construction machine.
  • the loader-excavator construction machine may be operated at least in a loader mode and in an excavator mode, wherein the interlocking of the proximal boom arm and the machine frame may be realized in the loader mode.
  • the machine frame of the arrangement may be a steel framework or a steel base for supporting the articulated boom on the construction machine.
  • the articulated boom may be any multi-armed boom, in particular a three-armed boom.
  • a bucket, a hammer or a cutter head may be held by and attached to the distal arm of the articulated boom.
  • an engine for example an engine, a driver's cabin, a counterweight and/or a tool storage, may also be arranged on the machine frame.
  • At least the machine frame and the articulated boom may be part of an upper structure of the construction machine.
  • the upper structure may comprise at least one battery and at least one electric motor, which may be connected to the battery for operating the construction machine or at least one component thereof.
  • the upper structure and/or the articulated boom may be operated by the electric motor.
  • the electric motor may run at least one hydraulic pump, the articulated boom and/or the upper structure being moved via a hydraulic system that is powered by said hydraulic pump.
  • the articulated boom of the arrangement comprises at least two arms, the proximal arm and the distal arm.
  • the proximal arm and the distal arm may be interconnected directly or indirectly via an intermediate arm.
  • the proximal arm itself may be mounted on the machine frame via an articulation, in particular an articulated joint.
  • the proximal arm may be directly hinged to the machine frame, wherein the distal arm may be indirectly hinged to the machine frame with at least one intermediate arm therebetween.
  • Providing at least one further intermediate arm between the distal arm and the proximal arm may increase the operational range of the construction machine.
  • the interlocking of the proximal arm and the machine frame may consist of or may comprise at least one of a locking of the proximal arm in or to the machine frame, a locking of the machine frame in or to the proximal arm, a blocking of the articulation between the proximal arm and the machine frame and/or a latching of the proximal arm to the machine frame.
  • a respective interlock, lock, block and/or latch may be mechanically or physically provided by an interlocking means, a locking means, a blocking means and/or a latching means. At least one of these means may be arranged on the machine frame or on the articulated boom. Respective means may also be arranged in a divided manner on both, the machine frame and on the articulated boom.
  • a core idea of the present invention can be seen in that the proximal arm of the multi-armed boom cannot only be held in place hydraulically during at least one operational mode of the construction machine but rather mechanically locked to the machine frame. At least one respective articulation of the proximal arm, which is not intended to be used in an operational mode, may thus be substantially released from forces and moments directly acting on it. Additionally, forces and moments acting on a hydraulic positioning cylinder of the proximal arm may also be reduced. Limiting the degrees of freedom of the articulated boom by means of locking a boom arm to the machine frame may increase stiffness and load handling capability of the entire boom. Hence, for example, while operating the boom in a loader mode, arising push loads may be better absorbed by the boom and the machine frame.
  • a further advantageous effect of the arrangement according to the present invention resides in the fact that an interlocking of the proximal arm and the machine frame may also result in a more compact machine design during a certain operational mode. This may result in a lower center of gravity of the construction machine, which in turn may lead to an increased tilt stability of the construction machine.
  • the arrangement according to the present invention may be configured to be operated in at least one further operational mode, in which the proximal arm and the machine frame are not interlocked.
  • the operational mode, in which the proximal arm and the machine frame are interlocked may be a loader mode.
  • An operational mode, in which the proximal arm and the machine frame are not interlocked, may be an excavator mode.
  • a further operational mode, in which the proximal arm and the machine frame are not interlocked may be a dozer mode.
  • Not interlocking the proximal arm may be understood as not locking the proximal arm in or to the machine frame, not blocking the articulation between the proximal arm and the machine frame and/or not latching the proximal arm to the machine frame.
  • the distal arm may be movable in all operational modes, wherein the proximal arm may only be articulated when it is not interlocked.
  • the movement range of the articulated boom may be larger when the proximal arm and the machine frame are not interlocked.
  • the arrangement according to the present invention may further comprise a locking device that is arranged on the machine frame, wherein the locking device is configured to engage with the proximal arm or vice versa so as to block any relative movement between said proximal arm and the machine frame.
  • the locking device may be arranged on the proximal arm.
  • the proximal arm may also be configured to engage with the locking device.
  • the locking device provides a mechanical connection between the proximal arm and the machine frame, wherein the mechanical connection can be selectively toggled on and off.
  • the connection may comprise a force-locking and/or a form-locking component.
  • the locking device may be an integral part of the machine frame and/or the proximal arm.
  • the locking device may also be a separate part of the arrangement being mounted to the machine frame and/or the proximal arm.
  • the locking device may be operated by a simple manual interaction or remotely without manual intervention.
  • the locking device may efficiently provide a stiff and rigid connection between the proximal arm and the machine frame.
  • the locking device may comprise at least one hydraulically or electrically operated hook for engaging with the proximal arm and/or with the machine frame.

  • the hook may be part of a hook fastener as the locking device.
  • the hook fastener may be arranged on the proximal arm and/or on the machine frame.
  • the hook may be swiveled between an unhooked position and a hooked-up position by a hydraulic cylinder or by an actuator to catch and release the stud or pin.
  • Such a remotely or manually controlled connection of the proximal arm and the machine frame may provide a robust interlocking.
  • the locking device may consist of or may comprise a bolt, a detent or any other type of fastener.
  • the bolt, the detent or the fastener may comprise the same functionality as the hook, in particular with respect to its mechanical engaging and interlocking ability.
  • the arrangement according to the present invention may comprise a pin that is arranged on the proximal arm, in particular a pin for fixing a piston rod eye of a positioning cylinder of the proximal arm, wherein the pin is configured to be locked to the machine frame.
  • the locking device or the hook may engage with the pin.
  • the positioning cylinder of the proximal arm may be arranged on the machine frame, wherein its piston rod may be connected to the proximal arm at a distal end thereof.
  • the piston rod eye may enclose the pin.
  • the pin may be circularly enclosed by the piston rod eye, the pin may comprise exposed portions to be used for interlocking the proximal arm and the machine frame. For example, at least one exposed portion of the pin may be locked with the locking device.
  • the hydraulically or electrically operated hook may engage with the pin by hooking up at least one of the exposed portions of the pin. Utilizing and locking a pin of a piston rod eye may provide a compact and flush locking of the proximal arm in the machine frame or a locking device. A retro-fit of a construction machine, especially with such an interlocking concept, may thus be realized efficiently.
  • a double hook may be provided for engaging with a stud or pin of the proximal arm.

  • the piston rod eye may enclose the pin at the middle portion.

  • the supporting portion may be a contact or engagement area on which the proximal arm may rest before, during or after being interlocked with the machine frame.
  • the contact or engagement area may be a seating or a surface for supporting the proximal arm during the operational mode, in which the movement of the proximal arm is blocked.
  • the proximal arm may be moved until a contact with the arm support is realized and then locked by the locking device.
  • the arm support may comprise a double functionality in supporting the proximal arm and in providing a stop for locking the proximal arm.
  • the position of the proximal arm, when resting on the arm support, may be defined as a locking position of the proximal arm.
  • a planar contact between the proximal arm and the machine frame may further increase the stiffness of the interconnection between the proximal arm and the machine frame.
  • the proximal arm In the interlocked position, the proximal arm may be arranged in a substantially flush fashion with respect to the machine frame or at least forming an acute angle with the machine frame.
  • a substantially flush locking position of the proximal arm may be a folded position of the proximal arm.
  • the proximal arm In the folded position, the proximal arm may be arranged substantially parallel to a base plate of the machine frame.
  • the piston rod of the positioning cylinder of the proximal arm may be in a fully retracted position in said folded position.
  • the proximal arm can be designed in a hollow manner for accommodating at least a part of the positioning cylinder when the proximal arm and the machine frame are interlocked. Specifically, the retracted positioning cylinder may rest in-between elongated side portions of the proximal arm.
  • Operating an articulated boom, which proximal arm may be locked to the machine body of the construction machine in such a flush fashion may provide a compact machine design. An operational mode suitable for height limited construction sites may thus be realized.
  • a locked proximal arm may also increase transport safety and may lower the transport height of the construction machine when transported on a lorry, for example.
  • the articulated boom of the arrangement according to the present invention may further comprise an intermediate arm that is interconnected in an articulated manner between the proximal arm and the distal arm.

  • a positioning cylinder of the intermediate arm may be arranged below the intermediate arm, connecting the proximal arm and the intermediate arm at distal ends thereof.
  • a distal end of an arm may be that end, which is remoter from the machine frame. The connection at distal ends of these arms increases the foldability of the intermediate arm.
  • a positioning cylinder of the distal arm may be arranged above the intermediate arm. This positioning cylinder may connect the intermediate arm and the distal arm at proximal ends thereof. A proximal end of an arm may be the closer end of the arm with respect to machine.
  • the positioning cylinder of the distal arm may be arranged above the positioning cylinder of the intermediate arm, also when the proximal arm and the machine frame are interlocked. Both of these cylinders may be arranged above the positioning cylinder of the proximal arm. All of these positioning cylinders may be arranged in a single plane.
  • the intermediate arm, a positioning cylinder of the intermediate arm and a positioning cylinder of the distal arm may be arranged substantially parallel to each other.
  • An effect of this arrangement can be seen in that the positioning cylinder of the intermediate arm and the positioning cylinder of the distal arm may remain parallel to each other regardless of the articulation and moving positions of the proximal arm, the intermediate arm and/or of the distal arm.
