Definitions

  • the invention relates to a quick coupler according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such quick couplers are used for easy and convenient changing of different attachments on construction machinery.
  • a quick coupler e.g. 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.
  • a generic quick coupler is known. This has a mountable on a boom arm of an excavator carrier with a base body and parallel side walls. To fasten the carrier to the excavator, opposite through-openings for receiving rear and front bearing bushes for receiving fastening bolts are arranged on the side walls of the carrier. The through openings are designed as oblong holes.
  • the bearing bushes have an outer contour adapted to the shape of the elongated holes and are arranged in the through-openings secured against rotation by this outer contour.
  • the quick coupler can be adapted to different distances between the fastening bolts and to fastening bolts with different diameters by different arrangement of the bores within the bearing bushes and by different diameters of the bores.
  • At least two opposite first bearing bushes can be inserted in different angular positions into first opposite through-openings in the side walls by rotation about an axis offset from a central axis of a receiving opening of the bearing bush and have an outer contour for an engagement in a corresponding inner contour on the through-openings that is secured against twisting.
  • Opposite second bearing bushes are arranged in second through-openings in the side walls designed as a slot and are secured against displacement by a form-fitting connection.
  • the object of the invention is to create a quick coupler of the type mentioned with an alternative form of form-fitting connection.
  • additional adjustment options can be achieved in that the opposite second bearing bushes are secured against displacement by a positive connection formed by arcuate depressions on the top and bottom of the second through-opening and corresponding arcuate elevations on the second bearing bush.
  • the second bearing bushes can also be moved into different positions for adjustment.
  • the outer contour of the first bearing bushes and the inner contour of the first through openings are designed as a polygonal profile.
  • the first and second bearing bushes are then secured against rotation in the desired positions. This achieves an improved possibility of adjustment while still positioning it more precisely and securely.
  • the outer contour can expediently be arranged on an engagement part of the bearing bush which engages in the first through-opening.
  • the first bearing bush can have a fastening flange provided with threaded bores for fastening to the side wall.
  • the second bearing bushes can be fastened to the side walls via a retaining washer.
  • the retaining disk can be arranged, for example, on the outside of the side wall and screwed to the second bearing bush using screws.
  • a quick coupler 1 is shown for easy and convenient changing of different attachments on construction machines, in particular excavators.
  • a quick coupler 1 for example, swivel buckets, grippers, shears, magnets, compactors, hydraulic hammers or other mechanical or hydraulic attachments can be easily and conveniently coupled or uncoupled from a driver's cab to a boom or another attachment of an excavator or other construction vehicle .
  • the quick coupler 1 contains a carrier designed as a welded construction or as a cast part, which contains a base part 2 and two parallel side walls 3 with through openings 4 and 5 for receiving bearing bushes 6 and 7 for two connecting bolts 8 parallel to one another.
  • the quick coupler 1 can be mounted, for example, on a boom arm of an excavator or other implement using the connecting bolts 8 .
  • the base part 2 which is designed in cross section as an inverted U-profile, has first receptacles 9, which are open to the rear on one side, for receiving and holding a first bolt-shaped coupling element, and on the other side, second receptacles 10, which are open downwards, for receiving and holding a second bolt-shaped coupling element .
  • the bolt-shaped coupling elements can be arranged, for example, on an attachment or on an adapter that can be attached to the attachment.
  • the quick coupler 1 contains two spaced-apart first receptacles 9 for the first coupling element on the back of the base part 4 and two spaced-apart receptacles 10 for the second coupling element on the front.
  • the first receptacles 9, which are open to the rear, are designed in the form of forks or claws.
  • the downwardly open second receptacles 10 are displaceably arranged in the guide bores 12 in the base part 2 bolt-shaped locking elements 13 on the Bottom closed, so that the second bolt-shaped coupling element of the bolt-shaped locking elements 13 is reached and held.
  • hook-shaped or differently shaped locking elements can also be arranged on the base part 2 of the carrier.
  • the quick coupler 1 which is usually arranged on a boom of an excavator, is first moved in such a way that the first coupling element, which is arranged on an adapter or directly on the attachment, fits into the claw-shaped or fork-shaped receptacles 9 one side of the quick coupler 1 is retracted. Then, with the locking elements 13 still pulled back, the quick coupler 1 is pivoted about the first bolt-shaped coupling element in such a way that the second coupling element on the adapter or attachment comes to rest on the contact surfaces 11 of the receptacles 10, which are open at the bottom, on the other side of the quick coupler 1.
  • the locking elements 13, which are movably arranged in the guide bores 12 in the base part 2 of the carrier, can be extended hydraulically, so that the second bolt-shaped coupling element is gripped under by the two bolt-shaped locking elements 13 on the quick coupler 1 and the attachment is thus held on the quick coupler 1.
  • two opposite rear through-openings 4 for accommodating first bearing bushes 6 and two opposite front through-openings 5 for accommodating second bearing bushes 7 are provided in the two side walls 3 of the carrier.
  • the first bearing bushes 6 arranged at the rear have an engagement part 14 for engaging in the rear through opening 4 and a fastening flange 16 provided with threaded bores 15 .
  • the engagement part 14 of the rear bearing bushing 6 has an outer contour 17 embodied here as an external hexagonal profile for form-fitting engagement with a corresponding inner contour 18 of the rear through-opening 5 embodied here as an internal hexagonal profile.
  • the first bearing bush 6 there is a receiving bore 20 which is eccentric to the axis 19 .
  • the central axis 21 of the receiving bore 20 is offset from the axis 19, so that the position of the receiving bore 20 relative to the side wall 3 can be changed by rotating the first bearing bush 6 .
  • a plurality of through-holes 22 for screws 23 aligned with the threaded holes 15 in the fastening flange 16 are arranged around the through-opening 5 in the side walls 3 .
  • the bearing bushing 6 inserted in a certain angular position into the through-opening 4 of the side cheek 3 can be fastened to the side cheek 3 by means of the screws 23 .
  • the outer contour 17 and the corresponding inner contour 18 can expediently be designed as a polygonal profile.
  • the connection between the bearing bush 6 and the side wall 3 can also be made, for example, by an external and internal serration, by a splined shaft and splined hub profile, or by an external and internal polygonal profile.
  • the second passage openings 5 arranged at the front in the side panels 3 are designed as oblong holes with arcuate depressions 24 on the top and bottom.
  • the second bearing bushes 7 arranged at the front have an oval base body with a flange 25 and an engagement area 26 for positive engagement in the front through-opening 5 .
  • the engagement area 26 has arcuate elevations 27 on its upper and lower sides that correspond to the depressions 24 . Due to the configuration of the front through-opening 5 and the engagement area 26, the bearing bushing 7 can be inserted within the through-opening 5 designed as an elongated hole at various points of the side wall 3 and is secured there against displacement. Thus, the position of the receiving bore 28 relative to the side panel 3 can be easily changed.
  • the front bearing bush 7 is attached to the side panel 3 by means of an in figure 1 Retaining disk 29 shown, which is arranged on the outside of the side wall 3 and is screwed to the bearing bush 7 via screws 30 .
  • 29 through holes 31 and in the bearing bush 7 corresponding threaded holes 32 are provided in the retaining disc.
  • the fastening bolts 8 can be fixed to the side walls 3 via fastening elements 33 and threaded bores 34 in the side walls 3 .
