Description
»7/ - nana ικ -naa ·¾&· Γ ΚΙΡΡ 7α ίΌη T?m Method and device for moving an exchangeable platform or a container on to the tipping frame of a lorry, trailer, or the like, and off from it Method and device for moving an exchangeable platform or a cont on to the tipping frame of a lorry, trailer, or the like, and off from it.
This invention relates to moving an exchangeable platform or a container to and from the tipping frame, of a lorry, trailer or the . like, the tipping frame being provided with one or several endless chains or cables running around one or several chain or cable wheels arranged at one end of the tipping frame and around one or several wheels arranged at the other end of the tipping frame.
It is previously known to move an exchangeable platform on to a tipping frame by means of two wire drums arranged on the shaft of a hydraulic motor mounted at the front end of the tipping frame, for instance, and by means of two wires running from the drums.
It is also known to use different kinds of travelling claw structures. However, this requires that the tipping frame can be, besides being tilted, also moved down rearwards so far that its rear end contacts the ground oi other' base where the platform or the container lays.
The object of this invention is to provide a simpler and more advantageous method of moving an exchangeable platform or a container, and the method according to the invention is mainly characterized in that the exchangeable platform or the container is pulled on to the tipping frame by means of one or several tails attached from one end to the said endless chain or chains or cable or cables, and provided with an engaging element, such as a hook or the like, at the other, free end, for engaging the platform or the container, and that .the platform oi the container is pushed off from the tipping frame by. means of the engaging element or elements so that the engaging element is prevented from moving towards the fastening point of the tail by means of one or several counter elements mounted preferably \; to the said endless chain or chains or cable or cables* The invention also relates to a device for carrying out the method, and the characteristic features of the device are set forth in claim 2.
When the endless chain of a tipping frame is according to this invention provided with an engaging tail, only a simple fastening element is required in platforms.
As the fastening element or elements are low at the end of a platform, the platform structure is as simple and light as possible.
The device according to the invention makes it possible to engage an disengage a platform without outside help and without the drive leaving the cab. By means of the device according to the invention, * a platform can be pushed' from the tipping frame to a trailer or to a loading bridge. In this case, the platform can be pushed by means of a special pushing bar, arranged at the rear end of the tipping platform, further than by means of the tail only. The engaging element , such as a hook, at the end of the tail is shaped so that it is self-positioning at a certain sideways deviation, and prevents a partial, one-sided engagement if the sideways deviation is too great.
The invention is further illustrated in the following with reference to the accoompanying drawings in which: Figures 1-6 show schematical sides views of a device according to the invention, in different stages of loading when. pulling an exchangeable platform on to. a tipping frame, Figures 7-10 show shematical side views of an engaging element in different stages of engagement to a pulling element at the front section of an exchangeable platform, Figure 11 shows a perspective view of the engaging element and the pulling element at the front section of the exchangeable platform, and Figures 12 and 13 show the moving of an exchangeable platform to a trailer and off from it by means of a device according to the invention.
As shown in Figures 1-6, a tipping frame 2 is arranged on the chassis 1 of a lorry and it can be tilted into a position inclined rearwards by means of cylinder-piston devices 4. A transverse shaft is mounted at the rear ends of the chassis beams 1. Rolls 17 with guiding flanges on their outer edges ara mounted at the ends of the transverse shaft. In the case illustrated, the tipping frame 2 is made fairly narrow. A chain or cable wheel 6 is arranged at the front end of the tipping frame on a transverse shaft driven b a hydraulic motor 5» and a wheel 7 is arranged at the rear end of the tipping frame, and an endless chain or cable 8 is arranged to run around the wheels 6 and 7. A tightening section is arranged at a suitable point on the endless chain or cable 8 for tightening the chain or cable to a suitable tightness. A tail 9 is attached from one end to the chain or cable 8 at point 2 and the other, free end of the ohain or cable is provided with an engaging element 1 0 for engaging an exchangeable platform 3 or a container. A counter element 1 1 , such as a nib or -\ the like, is also mounted on the chain or cable 8 behind the fastening point 1 2 of the tail 9 at a distance substantially corresponding to the length of the tail 9 . When the tail 9 is pulled on to the chain or cable 8, the said counter element 1 1 takes a position against a .corresponding counter surface or element in the engaging element 1 0 so that the movement of the engaging element 1 0 towards the fastening point 1 2 of the tail 9 is prevented.
The tail 9 is formed for instance by two chains or cables side by side with a spacing between them and connected to each other. The cross section of the tail is substantially U-shaped so that the tail stays on the chain or cable 8. Yhen the tail 9 is shaped as described above, the endless chain 8 and the tail 9 are positioned along the same pulling line and the chain 8 and the tail 9 also run on the front chain wheel 6 and on the rear wheel 7 so that the chain and the tail have the same radius.
A preferable engaging element is a hook 1 0 shown' in Figure 1 1 .
The front edge of the hook is provided with a directioning upright wedgelike surface 1 3 · Figure 1 1 also shows the construction of a fastening element 1 4 for the hook 1 0 , located at the lower section of the front edge of the platform '3 . The fastening element 1 4 is formed by two horizontal, preferably round rods 1 5 , parallel to the front edge of the platform 3 and mounted to the ■ front edge of the platform 3 . Between the opposite ends of the rods 'there is a spacing for the directioning section 1 3 of the hook. Preferably the opposite ends of the rods 1 5 are slanted in order to facilitate the positioning of the self-positioning hook into the fastening element H.
It is also possible to arrange two or even more endless parallel chains or cables on the tipping frame 2 , instead of one endless chain 8. A chain or cable can possibly be replaced by some other corresponding endless element. It is also possible to have one or several tails 9 . It should be noted that the number of tails 9 need not be the same as the number of endless chains or cables 8 or the like. For instance, one tail can be connected to two chains. .
Following is a description of the functioning of a device according to the invention.
In Figure 1 , the tipping frame 2 is tilted to an inclined position, and the tail 9 is lowered rearwards down to the ground surface oj* near to it, by means of the endless chain 8. Then the lorry is W' reversed rearwards to that the engaging element 1 0 takes a position in the fastening element 14 in the lower section of the front edge of the platform 3. The positioning of the engaging element 1 0 to the fastening element 14 can best be seen in Figures.7 , 8 and 1 „ In Figure 2 , the engaging element 10 is already engaged, and the hydraulic motor 5 has been started and the platform is being pulled on to the tipping frame by means of the endless chain 8 and the tail 9 .
The front edge of the platform 3 is raised on to the tipping frame 2 supported all the time by the engaging element 1 0 , also when the engaging element 1 0 is turned around the wheel 7 . The platform 3 is resting upon the supporting rolls 1 7 only when the platform is pulled further on to the tipping frame 2 . Due to this, it is not necessary to make the front ends of the bottom beams of the platform curved or shaped otherwise in a certain way. The beams can be cut vertically, for instance, at the front edge of the platform.
The rear end of the platform is provided with rolls 18 for facilitating the pulling of the platform 3 on to the tipping frame 2 .
Figures 9 and 1 0 show the engaging element being turned around the wheel 7 . The engaging element 1 0 is provided with two supporting rolls 16, one on eac side, so that when the exchangeable platform 3 is pulled on to the tipping frame 2 b means of the engaging element 1 0 , the engaging element 10 runs on the tipping frame resting on the supporting rolls 16.
In Figure 4 , the platform 3 is pulled further upwards, and the bottom beams of the platform 3 are now on the supporting rolls 1 7 . In Figure 5 , the platform 3 has been pulled right to the front section of the tipping frame 2 so that the rods 1 5 of the pulling element 1 4 are positioned in a locking element 1 9 . The pulling element of the platform 3 thus acts as a locking element when the platform 3 is on the tipping frame.
The platform 3 is removed from the tipping frame in the order opposite to the above. The tipping frame 2 is first tilted to an inclined position, after which the exchangeable platform 3 is pushed rearwards by means of the hydraulic motor 5 and the endless chain 8.
