Description

Aluminum frame.

The present specification refers to, as its title indicates, to an aluminum frame, applicable to tractors, collecting machines with umbrellas or similar.

There are currently several racks used for this type of umbrella collection machines, made of sheet metal, or tubular structures.

The main drawback of manufacturing the iron sheet racks is the possibility that with the time appear the inevitable symptoms of oxidation, in addition to Your weight is high.

The racks made with structures Although they reduce their weight, they have the disadvantage of increase the manufacturing cost, since there are several tools employees during the work process.

To solve the existing problems in the Currently, the aluminum frame has been devised, object of the present invention, which is specially designed to reduce the total weight of the structure, to which it collaborates enormously the material used, also avoiding that over time signs of corrosion appear.

The frame has a "U" shape inverted, configured by means of several profiles that constitute an upper and lower structure, joined by sections laterals in decline, equipped with several lateral reinforcements, conferring a great resistance to the effort. The bottom It is completed with a flat base, supported on two skates, located one on each side end, to protect as much as possible frame wear.

Frontally each side end is left constituted by a plate of reduced dimensions in width, both lateral ends being joined by means of a plate rectangular of equivalent height, located approximately in the geometric half of the frame, incorporating in its upper part a rectangular profile with equidistant holes and located on the internal side of the sides that make up the "U", both rectangular profiles, one on each side and in an inverted position with an elevation at its front end, equipped with perforations, for later coupling with the umbrella.

Externally, the rear of the frame adopts a trapezoidal shape, with two vertical reinforcements, and two inclined one at each end joining the upper structure with the lower one, in collaboration with a trapezoidal plate that constitutes the rear of the frame, the central part is equipped with pairs of lugs for coupling on tractor, or for any type of machine, these may vary, depending on the type of anchor required.

The sides of the frame are the same and arranged in an inverted position and are constituted by a plate rectangular having greater height in the rear, being its lower front part, having several reinforcements perpendicular. These side structures are joined by welding with the upper and lower structure.

The sides at the front have several welded bushings on the upper structure, located at precise distances, as these bushings have a cavity intended for the incorporation of the umbrella structure.

These bushings can be cylindrical or adopt Any geometric shape that is compatible with your back mounting. These caps have a reinforcement, located in their upper part.

The internal part of the frame is hollow, being the rear part that has the greatest capacity, since in that area is where the collected fruit accumulates.

Inside the rear area, it is located in its bottom a rectangular hatch with reinforcements lateral.

The trapdoor has a support with lugs of conventional type located in its center, and of the necessary conventional type hinges.

The back side on its inner face and centered, it also has a support with similar lugs features.

On these supports with lugs are incorporated hydraulic cylinders allowing the opening and closing of the trapdoor

The aluminum frame presented provides over the known the essential advantage of the material used that reduces the total weight of the structure.

Another important advantage is as a result of the considerable reduction of weight of the frame, allows a better execution maneuverability in work operations habitual.

As an added advantage we can mention that thanks to used material prevents signs of corrosion.

To better understand the purpose of this invention, an embodiment has been shown in the attached drawing preferential practice of it. In that plane:

Figure -1- shows a side view of the perspective frame.

Figure -2- shows a rear view of the perspective frame.

Figure -3- shows a front view of the perspective frame.

The aluminum frame (1) presented has an inverted "U" shape, configured by means of several profiles that constitute a superior structure (2) and another lower (3), joined by two lateral sections (4) in decrease, endowed with several perpendicular reinforcements (5).

The bottom is completed with a flat base (6), supported on two skates (7), located one at each end lateral (8).

Frontally each lateral end (8), is constituted by a plate (9) of reduced dimensions in width, both ends being joined (8) by means of a plate rectangular of (10) of equivalent height, located approximately in the geometric half of the frame (1), incorporating in its part top a rectangular profile (11) with equidistant holes (12) and located on the inner side of the sides (8), both rectangular profiles (13), one on each side and in position inverted with a lift (14) at its front end, endowed with equidistant holes (12).

The rear part (15) of the frame (1) adopts a trapezoidal shape, with two vertical reinforcements (16), two plates support centers (17), and two inclined reinforcements (18) one in each end joining the upper structure (1) with the lower one (2).

The central part is equipped with pairs of lugs (19) for coupling on tractor, or for any type of machine, these may vary, depending on the type of anchor required.

The sides at the front have several bushings (20) welded on the upper structure (2), located at precise distances, as these caps have a cavity (21) intended for the incorporation of the structure of the umbrella.

The bushes (20) can be cylindrical or adopt any geometric shape that is compatible with your subsequent assembly, with a reinforcement (22), divided into sections, located at the top.

The internal part of the frame is hollow, being the rear part that has the greatest capacity, since in that area is where the collected fruit accumulates.

Inside the rear area, it is located in its lower part a rectangular hatch (23) with reinforcements lateral (24).

The trapdoor (23) has a support with lugs (25) of conventional type located in its center, and of the necessary hinges of conventional type.

The back side (15) on its inner face and centered, it also has a support with lugs (26) of similar characteristics.

On the supports (25 and 26) are incorporated hydraulic cylinders allowing the opening and closing of the trapdoor (23).

A description is voluntarily omitted detailed of the rest of particularities of the system that is presented or of the component elements that integrate it, because we estimate by our part that the rest of these particularities are not object of any claim.

Once nature is sufficiently described of the present invention, as well as a way of putting it into practice, we only have to add that as a whole and parts that make up it is possible to introduce changes in form, layout, as long as these alterations do not substantially vary the Nature of the invention claimed below.
