Definitions
- the present invention relates to a quick coupling for coupling a tool to the boom of an implement according to the preamble of claim 1 and to an implement with such a quick coupling.
- Swing type quick couplings are widely used on certain work implements such as hydraulic excavators because they allow various tools such as hydraulic grabs, digging buckets, grapples, and the like to be changed easily and quickly.
- This can advantageously be a cross bolt that is hooked into a hook-shaped eyelet on the opposite quick-release coupling part.
- the quick coupling part on the boom side can then be pivoted relative to the tool about the already engaged locking axis, in order to thereby find the locking position in which the second locking axis can be locked.
- the latter is usually formed by a pair of locking bolts that can move apart laterally and move into corresponding locking bores on the opposite quick-release coupling part.
- such quick couplings can have an energy circuit coupling or hydraulic coupling, each of the quick coupling parts having a corresponding energy coupling part which pivot together with the quick coupling parts and are automatically brought together.
- mount one of the two energy coupling parts usually the energy coupling part on the tool, in a movable manner, for example on an arrangement of compression springs.
- this often results in an unclean coupling, which can lead to an oil leak.
- the EP 1 239 087 A1 proposed to provide a linear guide for the energy coupling parts, which forces them to move in a linear manner relative to one another along a straight line against the circular pivoting movement.
- the linear guide on the cantilever and tool-side energy coupling parts has interacting guide elements during coupling, which can be designed, for example, as guide bolts and bores, which interlock before the connection connectors are brought together and cause an exactly linear relative movement.
- the present invention is therefore based on the object of overcoming this disadvantage and enabling the use of such a quick coupling regardless of the installation position and situation of the energy coupling parts.
- the quick coupling according to the invention which is provided for coupling a tool to the boom of an implement, in particular a wheel loader, comprises a boom-side and a tool-side quick-release coupling part and a power circuit coupling for automatically coupling a tool-side power connection to a boom-side power connection.
- the quick-release coupling parts can be reversibly locked to one another via a pair of spaced-apart locking axes.
- the energy circuit coupling comprises an energy coupling part on the boom side and a tool-side energy coupling part, which are arranged on the two quick-release coupling parts in such a way that, by pivoting the two quick-release coupling parts together about a first of the two locking axes, they move towards one another on a circular path around the first locking axis and thereby automatically move towards one another couple.
- At least one of the two energy coupling parts referred to below as the movable energy coupling part, is mounted pivotably about an axis parallel to the first locking axis and movable or displaceable perpendicular thereto.
- the energy circuit coupling comprises a linear guide, which is designed, in cooperation with the movable mounting of the movable energy coupling part, to compensate for the relative movement of the two energy coupling parts along a circular path when the quick coupling parts are pivoted together, and the two energy coupling parts when coupling linearly, ie along a straight line, to one another respectively.
- the quick coupling additionally comprises a centering device, by means of which the movable energy coupling part can be held in a central position regardless of its spatial orientation or orientation and a movement of the movable energy coupling part relative to the quick coupling part attached to it can be prevented in the absence of an external force.
- the centering device is designed according to the invention to enable a movement of the movable energy coupling part relative to the quick coupling part attached to it during automatic coupling with the other energy coupling part due to an external force generated by the coupling process.
- an external force is any force that does not result from the own weight of the movable energy coupling part or acts on it permanently due to the storage / attachment / connection with cables, hoses, etc. of the movable energy coupling part.
- An external force within the meaning of the present invention is in particular a force which is generated by the coupling with the other energy coupling part when the two quick coupling parts are brought together and which acts on the movable energy coupling part.
- the centering device ensures that the movable energy coupling part does not move out of the central position provided for a smooth coupling due to its own weight, the connection of hoses or the like, regardless of the installation position or spatial orientation of the movable energy coupling part. This makes it possible, for example, to mount the movable energy coupling part vertically on the quick coupling part of a wheel loader shovel without it pivoting downward due to gravity and making coupling of the energy coupling parts difficult or impossible.
- the present invention provides that the centering device is designed to allow a movement of the movable energy coupling part - within certain limits - only when an external force in the sense defined above acts on it, i.e. in particular one caused by the coupling process during a Contacting the movable energy coupling part by the other energy coupling part generated force.
- the quick coupling according to the invention can be used in any installation position and independently of the connection with other components such as, for example, hoses, which considerably expands the possible uses.
- the present invention not only opens up further possible uses with installation positions that differ from the previous situation on hydraulic excavators.
- the quick coupling according to the invention with a centering device can also be used advantageously in hydraulic excavators with unproblematic installation positions with regard to their own weight, namely in particular in those cases in which a hose is used that leads to tilting of the movable energy coupling part due to the inherent stresses or pretension of the hoses.
- the quick coupling according to the invention is preferably a quick coupling according to FIG EP 1 239 087 A1 , which additionally has the centering device according to the invention.
- the revelation of the EP 1 239 087 A1 is explicitly included in the present teaching.
- the quick coupling according to the invention according to any of the in the EP 1 239 087 A1 described advantageous embodiments, or according to any combination of the embodiments disclosed therein.
- the one in the EP 1 239 087 A1 The embodiments described are thus also possible embodiments of the present quick coupling according to the invention.
- the quick coupling according to the invention can be a quick coupling for coupling a tool to the boom of a hydraulic excavator and the like, with a quick coupling part on the boom and a quick coupling part on the tool side, which can be locked to one another via a pair of spaced-apart locking axes, in such a way that after locking only a first of the two locking axes, the two quick-release coupling parts can be pivoted together about said first locking axis and then the second locking axis can be locked, as well as a power circuit coupling, in particular a hydraulic coupling, for automatically coupling a tool-side power connection to a boom-side power connection, the power circuit coupling having a cantilever-side and a tool-side power coupling Has energy coupling part that is attached to the boom-side quick coupling part or the tool-side Schnellk coupling part are arranged at a distance from the first locking axis in such a way that they move together on a circular path around the first locking
- the centering device comprises at least one centering element which is fixed or immovable on the quick coupling part and holds the movable energy coupling part in the central position in a non-positive and / or positive manner in the absence of an external force.
- the fixation of the movable energy coupling part by means of the centering element can take place both positively and non-positively, for example positively in certain directions and non-positively in other directions.
- the movable energy coupling part is mounted on the quick coupling part via a spring device, in particular an arrangement of one or more compression springs, which presses the movable energy coupling part against the centering element and thereby holds it in the central position or - in particular immediately after one of the movable Energy coupling part deflecting external force - transferred back to the central position.
- the spring device generates a pressing force on the centering element which holds the movable energy coupling part in the correct position, ie the spring device is pretensioned in the central position.
- the spring force or contact pressure must be large enough that the movable energy coupling part is not moved out of the central position in any of the possible installation positions by its own weight or the internal stresses of possible connecting hoses. At the same time, it must be low enough to enable the movable energy coupling part to be deflected when coupling with the other energy coupling part, when threading the linear guide components and when bringing them together linearly.
- the centered, movable energy coupling part must therefore have a certain degree of mobility when an external force that exceeds its own weight / hose tensions, etc. is applied.
- the centering device has at least one holding element which is arranged on the movable energy coupling part and which is designed to interact with the at least one centering element in a force-fitting and / or form-fitting manner.
- the at least one holding element is therefore movably mounted on the quick coupling part together with the movable energy coupling part and is in particular pressed against the at least one centering element by the spring device.
- the holding element comprises a recess into which the centering element is at least partially received or retracted in the central position.
- the holding element can itself be the recess or it can also comprise additional parts.
- the recess has at least one bevel and / or rounding which interacts with at least one bevel and / or rounding of the centering element. Due to the beveling / rounding of the interacting elements of the centering device a certain mobility of the movable energy coupling part is guaranteed, which is required for the coupling process.
- the recess is funnel-shaped at least along one direction, the centering element being beveled and / or rounded and preferably bolt-shaped at least along that same direction.
- the recess can therefore be beveled and / or rounded along at least one direction, so that a funnel shape results in a corresponding cross-sectional view.
- the centering element which is partially located within the recess in the central position, can move along the bevels when an external force is applied, in order to enable the movable energy coupling part to move during coupling.
- a bolt-shaped, i.e. rounded shape of the centering element in the direction of the funnel-shaped configuration is advantageous here.
- the funnel-shaped configuration and the preferably bolt-shaped rounding should be formed at least in a plane that is perpendicular to the axis about which the movable energy coupling part is pivoted during the coupling process.
- This axis is preferably perpendicular to the straight line along which the linear merging of the energy coupling parts mediated by the linear guide takes place.
- the bevels can also have an angle of 20-70 °, in particular 25-45 °.
- the recess has an in particular continuous recess.
- the continuous recess is therefore open, ie it passes through the component of the movable energy coupling part in which the recess is formed.
- the recess is preferably smaller than the centering element.
- This recess has the function of forming an opening within the recess so that no deposits or dirt can accumulate inside the recess, which would prevent correct positioning of the centering element. The accumulations get out of the recess through the recess or are in by the centering element pressed the recess.
- the recess can for example be a bore or a slot and is preferably arranged at the lowest point or bottom of the recess.
- the centering element can also have a recess on the side facing the recess, into which dirt accumulating in the recess can be pushed so as not to clog the recess. This can also be continuous.
- the movable energy coupling part is mounted on the quick coupling part attached to it via two spaced carrier elements and is preferably arranged between the carrier elements, each of the carrier elements having a centering element.
- the carrier elements can be designed in the form of plates and extend essentially vertically starting from the quick-release coupling part.
- the movable energy coupling part can be mounted on the carrier elements via a spring mounting.
- the carrier elements are in particular rigidly connected to the quick coupling part and partially enclose the movable energy coupling part.
- the centering elements are designed in the shape of bolts and each interact with a holding element as described above.
- the holding elements are preferably formed on or in a carrier block of the movable energy coupling part which extends essentially between and perpendicular to the carrier elements.
- the carrier block can have one or more connector pieces that form the power connection of the movable power coupling part.
- the recesses are formed on the upper side of the carrier block facing away from the quick-release coupling part, in particular on the edges or sides which are adjacent to the carrier elements.
- Such a configuration is particularly easy to implement, since the recesses forming the holding elements are only introduced laterally on the upper side of the carrier block - for example by milling and / or drilling - and the bolt-shaped centering elements at the corresponding points or at the corresponding distance from Quick coupling part attached to the inner surfaces of the support elements - for example screwed - must be.
- the bolt-shaped centering elements are conical and fastened to the carrier elements via the narrower ends.
- the beveling / rounding of the conical shape of the centering elements enables deposits or dirt that may have collected in the recesses to be displaced from the recesses, so that correct positioning of the centering elements in the recesses is possible.
- the recesses are preferably open to the sides of the carrier block, so that dirt / deposits can be forced out of the recesses due to the conical shape of the centering elements.
- each of the carrier elements having at least two centering elements each.
- the at least two centering elements provided on each side one is preferably connected to the carrier element via a fixed bearing and the other via a floating bearing and thus form a fixed-loose arrangement, ie the centering element connected via the floating bearing is not rigidly attached to the carrier element, but movably mounted, so that there is a certain relative mobility between the two centering elements.
- more than one centering element can be used per carrier element, which increases the stability of the centering and yet ensures the necessary degree of mobility of the movable energy coupling part for the coupling process. It is also conceivable to mount one or more of the centering elements rotatably on the carrier element.
- the energy connection of the movable energy coupling part is arranged on the side of the carrier block facing away from the movable bearing on the quick coupling part and is designed in such a way that, when coupling with the other energy coupling part, a coupling with the other energy connection arranged thereon is automatically established a power circuit connection is established.
- the energy connection can comprise one or more connector pieces which can be pushed together or connected to corresponding connector pieces of the other energy coupling part and which bring about the corresponding energy connection (eg hydraulic fluid connection).
- the connector pieces extend in particular perpendicularly away from the carrier block and can be female and male connector pieces known per se.
- the carrier block can also be referred to as a connector block.
- the movable energy coupling part is arranged on the tool-side quick coupling part of a tool, in particular a wheel loader shovel, and is preferably aligned such that the coupling of the energy coupling parts mediated by the linear guide takes place along an essentially horizontal line.
- the movable energy coupling part is rotated approx. 90 ° to the usual installation position used on the hydraulic excavator. Without the centering device according to the invention, the movable energy coupling part would be tilted out of the central position required for the smooth coupling procedure due to its own weight, the hose tension and the movable mounting.
- the linear guide preferably comprises at least two guide pins on one energy coupling part and associated guide bores on the other energy coupling part, into which the mentioned guide pins move when the two energy coupling parts move together. They force the spring device to deflect in order to compensate for the pivoting movement component.
- the guide pins are rigidly connected to the carrier block and protrude perpendicularly above it to the opposite energy coupling part.
- Each guide pin is preferably essentially cylindrical and has a rounded head which prevents tilting when it is inserted into the guide bores.
- the holding elements / recesses in the carrier block are arranged in alignment or in line with the guide bolts / guide bores of the linear guide.

- the contact pressure is measured in such a way that the movable energy coupling part 10 does not move out of the central position in any installation position due to its own weight and / or the rigidity / internal stress of the hoses (not shown) connected to it via the hose connections 11.
- the quick coupling according to the invention is particularly suitable for use on a wheel loader shovel.
- the recesses 24 are funnel-shaped and the centering elements 20 are designed as round bolts.
- the recesses 24 have a rectangular shape or slot shape in plan view and are tapered conically towards the center along the short sides of the carrier block 18.
