The replacement member 120 is a claw-shaped member, and can be removed from the support member 110 and replaced when it is worn out due to repeated excavation work of a shovel or the like.

ロックピン130は、支持部材110に嵌合された取替部材120を連結固定するために装着される。 The lock pin 130 is mounted to connect and fix the replacement member 120 fitted to the support member 110.

図2、図3に示すように、支持部材110の先端側の端部にはx正方向に突出した凸部111が設けられる。図3に示すように、取替部材120の基端側の端部には、この凸部111が嵌合する凹部121が設けられる。 As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, a convex portion 111 protruding in the positive x direction is provided at the end portion on the tip side of the support member 110. As shown in FIG. 3, a recess 121 into which the projection 111 is fitted is provided at the end of the replacement member 120 on the base end side.

凸部111は、z方向の寸法が基端から先端になるほど小さくなるくさび状であり、z正方向側、z負方向側の主面111a、111bは共に傾斜面となっている。凸部111のz正方向側の主面111aには、第1支持面112aと第2支持面113aとが設けられる。第1支持面112aと第2支持面113aは、共にz正方向側に突出した曲面であり、y方向の両側から中央にかけて徐々に突出し、y方向の中央が最もz正方向側に突出する曲面である。第1支持面112aは、この傾斜状の主面111aの基端側に設けられ、第2支持面113aは第1支持面112aより先端側に設けられる。第1支持面112aの頭頂部は、第2支持面113aの頭頂部よりz正方向側に突出している。 The convex portion 111 has a wedge shape in which the dimension in the z direction becomes smaller from the base end to the tip end, and the main surfaces 111a and 111b on the z positive direction side and the z negative direction side are both inclined surfaces. A first support surface 112a and a second support surface 113a are provided on the main surface 111a of the convex portion 111 on the positive z direction side. Both the first support surface 112a and the second support surface 113a are curved surfaces projecting in the z positive direction side, and gradually project from both sides in the y direction toward the center, and the center in the y direction projects the most in the z positive direction side. Is. The first support surface 112a is provided on the base end side of the inclined main surface 111a, and the second support surface 113a is provided on the tip side of the first support surface 112a. The crown of the first support surface 112a projects in the positive z direction from the crown of the second support surface 113a.

同様に、凸部111のz負方向側の主面111bにも、第1支持面112bと第2支持面113bとが設けられる。第1支持面112bと第2支持面113bは、共にz負方向側に突出した曲面であり、y方向の両側から中央にかけて徐々に突出し、y方向の中央が最もz負方向側に突出する曲面である。第1支持面112bは、この傾斜状の主面111bの基端側に設けられ、第2支持面113bは第1支持面112bより先端側に設けられる。第1支持面112bの頭頂部は、第2支持面113bの頭頂部よりz負方向側に突出している。 Similarly, the first support surface 112b and the second support surface 113b are also provided on the main surface 111b of the convex portion 111 on the negative z side. Both the first support surface 112b and the second support surface 113b are curved surfaces projecting in the z negative direction side, and gradually project from both sides in the y direction toward the center, and the center in the y direction projects the most in the z negative direction side. Is. The first support surface 112b is provided on the base end side of the inclined main surface 111b, and the second support surface 113b is provided on the tip end side of the first support surface 112b. The crown of the first support surface 112b projects in the negative z direction from the crown of the second support surface 113b.

一方、取替部材120の凹部121には、第1曲面122a,122bと、第2曲面123a,123bとが設けられる。第1曲面122a,122bと、第2曲面123a,123bは、凸部111が凹部121に嵌合するときにそれぞれ第1支持面112a,112b、第2支持面113a,113bと対向する位置に設けられる。これにより、取替部材120が支持部材110に嵌合する状態では、図4、図5に示すように、第1支持面112a,112bがそれぞれ第1曲面122a,122bと嵌合し、第2支持面113a,113bがそれぞれ第2曲面123a,123bと嵌合した状態で、凸部111が凹部121に挿入されている。これにより、取替部材120が支持部材110に取り付けられたときに、支持部材110に対して取替部材120のy方向のガタが抑制される。 On the other hand, the recess 121 of the replacement member 120 is provided with first curved surfaces 122a and 122b and second curved surfaces 123a and 123b. The first curved surfaces 122a and 122b and the second curved surfaces 123a and 123b are provided at positions facing the first supporting surfaces 112a and 112b and the second supporting surfaces 113a and 113b, respectively, when the convex portion 111 fits into the concave portion 121. To be As a result, when the replacement member 120 is fitted to the support member 110, the first support surfaces 112a and 112b are fitted to the first curved surfaces 122a and 122b, respectively, as shown in FIGS. The convex portion 111 is inserted into the concave portion 121 in a state where the support surfaces 113a and 113b are fitted to the second curved surfaces 123a and 123b, respectively. Accordingly, when the replacement member 120 is attached to the support member 110, the play of the replacement member 120 in the y direction is suppressed with respect to the support member 110.

また、図1、図2に示すように、取替部材120の基端側の端面には、x負方向側に突出する一対の耳部124が設けられている。一方、支持部材110には、取替部材120が支持部材110に嵌合する状態のときにこの耳部124が嵌合する一対の凹状部114が設けられている。耳部124と凹状部114は、それぞれ取替部材120及び支持部材110のy方向の両端に設けられる。これにより、取替部材120が支持部材110に取り付けられたときに、支持部材110に対して取替部材120のz方向のガタが抑制される。 In addition, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a pair of ears 124 protruding in the negative x direction are provided on the end face of the replacement member 120 on the base end side. On the other hand, the support member 110 is provided with a pair of concave portions 114 into which the ears 124 fit when the replacement member 120 is fitted into the support member 110. The ear portion 124 and the concave portion 114 are provided at both ends of the replacement member 120 and the support member 110 in the y direction, respectively. Thereby, when the replacement member 120 is attached to the support member 110, the play of the replacement member 120 in the z direction is suppressed with respect to the support member 110.

図2に示すように、ロックピン130は、y正方向側から取替部材120及び支持部材110に取り付けられる。支持部材110のy正方向側の側面には、ロックピン130が嵌合するための溝115が設けられる。取替部材120には、ロックピン130を内側の支持部材110の溝115まで誘導するための孔125が設けられる。 As shown in FIG. 2, the lock pin 130 is attached to the replacement member 120 and the support member 110 from the positive y direction side. A groove 115 for fitting the lock pin 130 is provided on the side surface of the support member 110 on the positive y side. The replacement member 120 is provided with a hole 125 for guiding the lock pin 130 to the groove 115 of the inner support member 110.

孔125は、取替部材120が支持部材110に嵌合した状態において、溝115の一部が露出するよう配置される。支持部材110に取替部材120が組み付けられたときに、溝115と孔125とは、取替部材120の側面に開口する内部空間A(図7参照)を形成する。この内部空間Aはロックピン130と略同形状であり、ロックピン130は、この内部空間Aに嵌入されることで、取替部材120と支持部材110とを連結固定する。 The hole 125 is arranged so that a part of the groove 115 is exposed when the replacement member 120 is fitted in the support member 110. When the replacement member 120 is assembled to the support member 110, the groove 115 and the hole 125 form an internal space A (see FIG. 7) that opens to the side surface of the replacement member 120. The internal space A has substantially the same shape as the lock pin 130, and the lock pin 130 is fitted into the internal space A to connect and fix the replacement member 120 and the support member 110.

なお、図4に示すように、取替部材120の孔125がy正方向側に設けられるのに対して、支持部材110の溝115はy正方向側の他に、y負方向側にも設けてもよい。これにより、取替部材120の方向をx軸まわりに180°回転させて支持部材110に嵌合した状態でも、ロックピン130により取替部材120を支持部材110に固定できる。取替部材120は、バケットに取り付けた状態では、z正方向側またはz負方向側の主面120a、120bのいずれか一方が主に掘削面となり摩耗が進みやすい。そこで図4のように支持部材110のy方向両側に溝115を一対設けることにより、取替部材120をローテーションでき、すなわち、取替部材120の方向をx軸まわりに180°回転させて掘削面となる主面を入れ替えることができるので、取替部材120を長寿命化できる。 As shown in FIG. 4, while the hole 125 of the replacement member 120 is provided on the y positive direction side, the groove 115 of the support member 110 is provided on the y negative direction side as well as the y positive direction side. It may be provided. Accordingly, even when the direction of the replacement member 120 is rotated by 180° around the x-axis and fitted into the support member 110, the replacement member 120 can be fixed to the support member 110 by the lock pin 130. When the replacement member 120 is attached to a bucket, one of the main surfaces 120a and 120b on the z positive direction side or the z negative direction side mainly serves as an excavation surface, and wear easily proceeds. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, by providing a pair of grooves 115 on both sides of the support member 110 in the y direction, the replacement member 120 can be rotated, that is, the direction of the replacement member 120 is rotated by 180° around the x axis and the excavation surface is rotated. Since the main surface to be replaced can be replaced, the life of the replacement member 120 can be extended.

ここで、溝115は、支持部材110のy方向の側面に設けられるが、この側面とは、支持部材110の延在方向(x方向)と直交し、かつ、図14に示すように、支持部材110の凸部111の一対の主面111a、111bの対向方向(z方向)と直交する側方の位置にある面である。同様に、孔125は、取替部材120のy方向の側面に設けられるが、この側面とは、取替部材120の延在方向(x方向)と直交し、かつ、図14に示すように、取替部材120の一対の主面120a、120bの対向方向(z方向)と直交する側方の位置にある面である。なお、溝115及び孔125が設けられる側方の位置は、必ずしも支持部材110及び取替部材120の延在方向(x方向)と直交しなくてもよく、少なくとも交差して延在方向と異なる方向であればよい。 Here, the groove 115 is provided on the side surface in the y direction of the support member 110, and this side surface is orthogonal to the extending direction (x direction) of the support member 110, and as shown in FIG. It is a surface at a side position orthogonal to the facing direction (z direction) of the pair of main surfaces 111a and 111b of the convex portion 111 of the member 110. Similarly, the hole 125 is provided on the side surface of the replacement member 120 in the y direction, and this side surface is orthogonal to the extending direction (x direction) of the replacement member 120, and as shown in FIG. The pair of main surfaces 120a and 120b of the replacement member 120 are lateral surfaces that are orthogonal to the facing direction (z direction). The lateral positions where the groove 115 and the hole 125 are provided do not necessarily need to be orthogonal to the extending direction (x direction) of the support member 110 and the replacement member 120, and at least intersect and differ from the extending direction. Any direction will do.

なお、本実施形態では、y正方向側から単一のロックピン130で固定する構成を例示したが、例えばy方向両側から2つのロックピンで固定する構成でもよい。この場合、取替部材120のy負方向側にも孔125と同様の孔が設けられる。 In addition, in the present embodiment, the configuration in which the single lock pin 130 is used for fixing from the positive side in the y direction is illustrated, but the configuration may be such that two lock pins are provided from both sides in the y direction. In this case, a hole similar to the hole 125 is provided on the y negative direction side of the replacement member 120.

図2に加えて図6を参照して、実施形態に係るロックピン130の構成を説明する。図6は、ロックピン130の斜視図である。 The configuration of the lock pin 130 according to the embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 6 in addition to FIG. 2. FIG. 6 is a perspective view of the lock pin 130.

図2、図6に示すように、ロックピン130は、基端部131と、先端部132とを有する。 As shown in FIGS. 2 and 6, the lock pin 130 has a base end portion 131 and a tip end portion 132.

基端部131は、例えばJIS規格に規定される機械構造用炭素鋼、機械構造用合金鋼(たとえばS45C、SCM435のほか、同等量の炭素を含むSMn鋼、SCr鋼、SCM鋼、SNCM鋼など)、工具鋼、鋳鋼などの金属製である。先端部132は例えば硬質ゴムなどの弾性材料で形成され、基端部131の一端側(x正方向側)に連続的に形成される。基端部131と先端部132は、溝115と孔125とにより形成される一方向に延びる内部空間Aに嵌入可能な形状であり、長手方向を有するよう一体的に形成される。基端部131と先端部132との配列方向がロックピン130の長手方向である。 The base end portion 131 is, for example, carbon steel for machine structure defined by JIS standard, alloy steel for machine structure (for example, S45C, SCM435, SMn steel containing the same amount of carbon, SCr steel, SCM steel, SNCM steel, etc.). ), tool steel, cast steel and other metals. The tip portion 132 is formed of an elastic material such as hard rubber, and is continuously formed on one end side (x positive direction side) of the base end portion 131. The base end portion 131 and the tip end portion 132 have a shape that can be fitted into an inner space A formed by the groove 115 and the hole 125 and extending in one direction, and are integrally formed so as to have a longitudinal direction. The arrangement direction of the base end portion 131 and the tip end portion 132 is the longitudinal direction of the lock pin 130.

なお、先端部132を形成する弾性材料は、ショア硬さが40〜90程度のものが好ましく、ショア硬さが80程度のものがより好ましい。 The elastic material forming the tip portion 132 preferably has a Shore hardness of about 40 to 90, more preferably about 80.

先端部132のうち基端部131と反対側の端部には、略円弧状の凸曲面132aが形成されている。ロックピン130は短手方向(y方向)に対向する底面133と上面134とを有する。底面133はy負方向側に面し、内部空間Aへの装着時に溝115の底面115bと対向する。上面134はy正方向側に面する。凸曲面132aは、底面133から連続的に形成され、かつ、上面134に対してy方向に突出する。 A substantially arc-shaped convex curved surface 132a is formed at an end of the tip end 132 opposite to the base end 131. The lock pin 130 has a bottom surface 133 and a top surface 134 that are opposed to each other in the lateral direction (y direction). The bottom surface 133 faces the y negative direction side and faces the bottom surface 115b of the groove 115 when mounted in the internal space A. The upper surface 134 faces the positive y-direction side. The convex curved surface 132a is continuously formed from the bottom surface 133 and projects in the y direction with respect to the upper surface 134.

基端部131のうち先端部132と反対側の端部には、階段状に形成された段差面131aが形成されている。段差面131aは、ロックピン130の底面133に近いほどx負方向側に突出する量が大きくなるよう形成されている。 At the end of the base end 131 opposite to the tip 132, a stepped surface 131a is formed stepwise. The step surface 131a is formed such that the closer it is to the bottom surface 133 of the lock pin 130, the larger the amount of projection in the negative x direction.

図7〜図9を参照して、ロックピン130による取替部材120の支持部材110への固定構造を説明する。図7は、ロックピン130の取り付け手順(ロック方法)の第1段階(解放状態)を示す図である。図8は、ロックピン130の取り付け手順の第2段階(中間状態)を示す図である。図9は、ロックピン130の取り付け手順の第3段階(固定状態)を示す図である。図7〜図9では、ツース100のx−y平面に沿った断面図が、ロックピン130の取り付け部分を拡大視して図示されている。 A structure for fixing the replacement member 120 to the support member 110 by the lock pin 130 will be described with reference to FIGS. 7 to 9. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a first stage (released state) of the attachment procedure (locking method) of the lock pin 130. FIG. 8 is a diagram showing a second stage (intermediate state) of the procedure for attaching the lock pin 130. FIG. 9 is a diagram showing a third stage (fixed state) of the procedure for attaching the lock pin 130. 7 to 9, a cross-sectional view of the tooth 100 taken along the xy plane is shown by enlarging a mounting portion of the lock pin 130.

図7に示すように、支持部材110に取替部材120が組み付けられたときに、溝115と孔125とは、取替部材120の側面に開口する内部空間Aを形成する。この内部空間Aは、孔125から支持部材の先端側(x正方向)へロックピン130を挿入し、ロックピン130の先端部132が最奥部(凹曲面115a)に突き当たった状態で、先端部132を長手方向に押圧して弾性圧縮しつつ、ロックピン130の先端部132を中心としてロックピン130を溝115の方向に回動させることによって、ロックピン130が嵌入されるよう形成される。つまり、内部空間Aの最深部がピボット軸受のように機能して、ロックピン130はピボットのように機能する。 As shown in FIG. 7, when the replacement member 120 is assembled to the support member 110, the groove 115 and the hole 125 form an internal space A that opens to the side surface of the replacement member 120. In this internal space A, the lock pin 130 is inserted from the hole 125 to the tip end side (x positive direction) of the support member, and the tip end 132 of the lock pin 130 abuts the innermost portion (concave curved surface 115a), and the tip end The lock pin 130 is formed to be fitted by rotating the lock pin 130 in the direction of the groove 115 about the tip 132 of the lock pin 130 while pressing the part 132 in the longitudinal direction to elastically compress. .. That is, the deepest part of the internal space A functions like a pivot bearing, and the lock pin 130 functions like a pivot.

このような内部空間Aを形成するために、溝115は、x正方向側(ツース100の先端側)になるほど深さが増すように、底面115bが傾斜状となるよう形成されている。溝115のx正方向側の端部は、z軸と平行な中心軸Cを中心とする略円弧状に形成される凹曲面115aである。溝115の平面状の底面115bは、溝115のx負方向側端部から傾斜して凹曲面115aと連続的に接続されている。 In order to form such an internal space A, the groove 115 is formed such that the bottom surface 115b is inclined so that the depth increases toward the x positive direction side (the tip side of the tooth 100). An end portion of the groove 115 on the positive x direction side is a concave curved surface 115a formed in a substantially arc shape centered on a central axis C parallel to the z axis. The planar bottom surface 115b of the groove 115 is inclined from the x negative direction side end of the groove 115 and is continuously connected to the concave curved surface 115a.

溝115の凹曲面115aは、ロックピン130の先端部132の凸曲面132aと略同一の曲率半径で形成されており、ロックピン130の凸曲面132aが突き当たって嵌合した状態で、中心軸Cを回動中心としてロックピン130を回動可能となっている。つまり、溝115の凹曲面115aは、ロックピン130の先端部132の凸曲面132aを受ける軸受として機能する。 The concave curved surface 115a of the groove 115 is formed with substantially the same radius of curvature as the convex curved surface 132a of the tip portion 132 of the lock pin 130, and when the convex curved surface 132a of the lock pin 130 abuts and is fitted, the central axis C The lock pin 130 can be rotated about the rotation center. That is, the concave curved surface 115 a of the groove 115 functions as a bearing that receives the convex curved surface 132 a of the tip portion 132 of the lock pin 130.

溝115の底面115bは、ロックピン130の底面133が密着できるように、底面133とほぼ同じ寸法で形成されている。これにより、ロックピン130が溝115の底面115bの全域を塞ぐことができる。 The bottom surface 115b of the groove 115 is formed to have substantially the same size as the bottom surface 133 so that the bottom surface 133 of the lock pin 130 can be in close contact. As a result, the lock pin 130 can close the entire area of the bottom surface 115b of the groove 115.

ロックピン130の取り付け手順の第1段階(解放状態)では、図7に示すように、ロックピン130の先端部132が孔125から支持部材110の先端側に挿入され、ロックピン130の先端部132の凸曲面132aが溝115の凹曲面115aに突き当たる。 In the first stage (released state) of the procedure for attaching the lock pin 130, as shown in FIG. 7, the tip portion 132 of the lock pin 130 is inserted from the hole 125 to the tip side of the support member 110, and the tip portion of the lock pin 130 is inserted. The convex curved surface 132 a of 132 abuts on the concave curved surface 115 a of the groove 115.

次に、基端部131を溝115の方向に押し込むと、先端部132の凸曲面132aが溝115の凹曲面115aに沿って中心軸Cを中心として(図7では反時計回り)に回動するので、ロックピン130の基端部131は中心軸Cを回動中心として回動しながら、孔125に進入していく。 Next, when the base end portion 131 is pushed in the direction of the groove 115, the convex curved surface 132a of the distal end portion 132 rotates around the central axis C along the concave curved surface 115a of the groove 115 (counterclockwise in FIG. 7). Therefore, the base end portion 131 of the lock pin 130 enters the hole 125 while rotating around the center axis C as the rotation center.

なお、孔125のx負方向側の内周面126は、基端部131の段差面131aと嵌合するよう段差状に形成されており、段差面131aとは反対に、孔125の外側(y正方向側)に近いほどx正方向側に突出する量が大きくなるよう形成されている。このため、ロックピン130は通常時の長手方向の寸法では段差面131aが孔125の内周面126に引っかかってそれ以上基端部131が孔125に進入できない。ここで、先端部132は弾性材料で形成されているため、基端部131側から先端部132側へ押圧することで、ロックピン130の長手方向寸法を収縮させて、これにより基端部131を孔125に進入させることができる。 The inner peripheral surface 126 of the hole 125 on the x negative direction side is formed in a stepped shape so as to fit with the stepped surface 131a of the base end portion 131, and the outer side of the hole 125 ( It is formed such that the closer it is to the (y positive direction side), the greater the amount of protrusion to the x positive direction side. Therefore, in the normal dimension of the lock pin 130 in the longitudinal direction, the step surface 131 a is caught by the inner peripheral surface 126 of the hole 125, and the base end portion 131 cannot further enter the hole 125. Here, since the distal end portion 132 is formed of an elastic material, by pressing from the proximal end portion 131 side toward the distal end portion 132 side, the longitudinal dimension of the lock pin 130 is contracted, whereby the proximal end portion 131. Can enter hole 125.

図8に示すロックピン130の取り付け手順の第2段階(中間状態)では、ロックピン130の基端部131が途中まで孔125に進入している状態である。このとき、基端部131の段差面131aは、孔125のx負方向側の内周面126の段差形状とその一部が嵌合している。 In the second stage (intermediate state) of the procedure for attaching the lock pin 130 shown in FIG. 8, the base end portion 131 of the lock pin 130 is partly inserted into the hole 125. At this time, the stepped surface 131 a of the base end portion 131 is fitted with the stepped shape of the inner peripheral surface 126 of the hole 125 on the x negative direction side and a part thereof.

図8の中間状態から引き続き基端部131側から先端部132側へ押圧しつつ、基端部131を溝115の方向に押し込んで回動させる。これにより、最終的に、図9に示すロックピン130の取り付け手順の第3段階(固定状態)のように、ロックピン130の底面部133が溝115の底面115bと当接する位置まで回動して、ロックピン130が内部空間Aに嵌入される。このとき、基端部131の段差面131aは、孔125のx負方向側の内周面126の段差形状とその全体が嵌合する。これにより、ロックピン130が内部空間Aと隙間なく嵌合し、溝115と孔125とを塞いだ状態となる。 From the intermediate state of FIG. 8, the base end 131 is pushed in the direction of the groove 115 and rotated while being continuously pressed from the base end 131 side to the tip end 132 side. As a result, finally, as in the third stage (fixed state) of the attachment procedure of the lock pin 130 shown in FIG. 9, the bottom surface portion 133 of the lock pin 130 is rotated to a position where it abuts the bottom surface 115b of the groove 115. Then, the lock pin 130 is fitted into the internal space A. At this time, the step surface 131a of the base end portion 131 fits the step shape of the inner peripheral surface 126 of the hole 125 on the x negative direction side in its entirety. As a result, the lock pin 130 is fitted into the internal space A without any gap, and the groove 115 and the hole 125 are closed.

このとき、ロックピン130は、先端部132が長手方向に弾性圧縮した状態で内部空間Aに嵌入された後に先端部132が弾性復帰してロックピン130の全長が伸びる。これにより、先端部132が支持部材110の溝115の壁面(凹曲面115a)をx正方向に押圧し、基端部131が、取替部材129の孔125の内周面126をx負方向側に押圧する状態となる。すなわち、ロックピン130によって、取替部材120が基端側に押圧された状態となり、取替部材120が支持部材110に対して先端側に抜けないように固定された状態となる。 At this time, the lock pin 130 is inserted into the internal space A in a state where the tip end portion 132 is elastically compressed in the longitudinal direction, and then the tip end portion 132 elastically returns to extend the entire length of the lock pin 130. As a result, the distal end portion 132 presses the wall surface (concave curved surface 115a) of the groove 115 of the support member 110 in the positive x direction, and the proximal end portion 131 causes the inner peripheral surface 126 of the hole 125 of the replacement member 129 to move in the negative x direction. It is in a state of being pressed to the side. That is, the replacement member 120 is pressed toward the base end side by the lock pin 130, and the replacement member 120 is fixed to the support member 110 so as not to come off toward the distal end side.

図9の固定状態からロックピン130を取り外す手順は以下のとおりである。まず図9の固定状態から基端部131の段差面131aに先端部132の方向へ外力を加える。外力の付加は、作業員の手で行っても良いし、器具を用いてもよい。先端部132がこの外力によって収縮して、段差面131aと孔125の内周面126との間に隙間ができ、基端部131を孔125から外側へ取り出すようにロックピンを回動可能となる。図8の中間状態のようにロックピン130を時計回りに回動させて、基端部131を孔125から取り外し、図7の解放状態まで遷移させる。次いで、図7の開放状態からロックピン130を段差面131a側に引っ張って、先端部132を溝115及び孔125から抜き出し、ロックピン130が内部空間Aから取り外される。 The procedure for removing the lock pin 130 from the fixed state of FIG. 9 is as follows. First, an external force is applied to the step surface 131a of the base end portion 131 in the direction of the tip end portion 132 from the fixed state of FIG. The external force may be applied by a worker's hand, or an instrument may be used. The distal end portion 132 contracts due to this external force to form a gap between the step surface 131a and the inner peripheral surface 126 of the hole 125, and the lock pin can be rotated so that the proximal end portion 131 is taken out from the hole 125 to the outside. Become. As in the intermediate state of FIG. 8, the lock pin 130 is rotated clockwise to remove the base end portion 131 from the hole 125, and transition to the released state of FIG. Then, the lock pin 130 is pulled toward the step surface 131a from the open state of FIG. 7, the tip end portion 132 is pulled out from the groove 115 and the hole 125, and the lock pin 130 is removed from the internal space A.

本実施形態の作用、効果を説明する。本実施形態のロックピン130は金属製の基端部131と、基端部131の一端側に形成された弾性材料の先端部132と、を備える。 The operation and effect of this embodiment will be described. The lock pin 130 of the present embodiment includes a metal base end portion 131 and a distal end portion 132 of an elastic material formed on one end side of the base end portion 131.

この構成により、ロックピン130は、金属製の基端部131と弾性材料の先端部132との二層構造という簡易な構造となるので、ロックピン130の製造容易性を向上できる。 With this configuration, the lock pin 130 has a simple structure of a two-layer structure including the metal base end portion 131 and the elastic material tip end portion 132, so that the manufacturability of the lock pin 130 can be improved.

また、本実施形態のロックピン130では、基端部131は短手方向に対向する底面133と上面134とを有し、ロックピン130の先端部132は、底面133から連続的に形成され、かつ、上面134より短手方向に突出する略円弧状の凸曲面132aを有する。つまり、凸曲面132aと上面134との間は段差がついている。 Further, in the lock pin 130 of the present embodiment, the base end portion 131 has a bottom surface 133 and a top surface 134 that are opposed to each other in the lateral direction, and the tip end portion 132 of the lock pin 130 is formed continuously from the bottom surface 133. In addition, it has a substantially arcuate convex curved surface 132a that projects in the lateral direction from the upper surface 134. That is, there is a step between the convex curved surface 132a and the upper surface 134.

この構成により、上面134と底面133との間を連続的に接続するように凸曲面をつくった場合と比べて凸曲面132aの曲率半径を大きくでき、凸曲面132aの周方向の長さを増やせる。これにより、ロックピン130の先端を溝115の凹曲面115aに突き当てて回動させるときに、凸曲面132aと溝115の凹曲面115aとの接触面積を増やすことができ、ロックピン130を適切に回動方向に誘導でき、より安定した回動操作が可能となる。また、上面134が凸曲面132aの端部(突出部分135)よりも底面133側に凹んでいるので、図9に示すように、ロックピン130が内部空間Aに嵌合したときに溝115の深さを抑えつつ、基端部131が孔125より外側に突出するのを防止できる。また、図9に示すように、ロックピン130が内部空間Aに嵌合した状態では、上面134に対する凸曲面132aの突出部分135が孔125と溝115との隙間を塞ぐので、外部からの異物の進入を防止できる。 With this configuration, the radius of curvature of the convex curved surface 132a can be increased and the circumferential length of the convex curved surface 132a can be increased as compared with the case where the convex curved surface is formed so as to continuously connect the upper surface 134 and the bottom surface 133. .. This makes it possible to increase the contact area between the convex curved surface 132a and the concave curved surface 115a of the groove 115 when the tip end of the lock pin 130 is brought into contact with the concave curved surface 115a of the groove 115 to rotate, and the lock pin 130 is properly adjusted. Can be guided in the rotation direction, and more stable rotation operation becomes possible. Further, since the upper surface 134 is recessed toward the bottom surface 133 side with respect to the end portion (protruding portion 135) of the convex curved surface 132a, as shown in FIG. 9, when the lock pin 130 is fitted in the internal space A, the groove 115 of the groove 115 is formed. It is possible to prevent the base end portion 131 from projecting outward from the hole 125 while suppressing the depth. Further, as shown in FIG. 9, when the lock pin 130 is fitted in the internal space A, the protruding portion 135 of the convex curved surface 132a with respect to the upper surface 134 closes the gap between the hole 125 and the groove 115, and thus foreign matter from the outside. Can be prevented from entering.

また、本実施形態のロックピン130において、基端部131は、先端部132とは反対側の他端に階段状に形成された段差面131aを有する。この構成により、ロックピン130を内部空間Aに嵌合したときにロックピン130を孔125の内周面126に係止でき、ロックピン130の孔125からの抜けを抑制でき、より安定してロックピン130を内部空間Aへ嵌合した状態を維持できる。 Further, in the lock pin 130 of the present embodiment, the base end portion 131 has a stepped surface 131a formed in a step shape at the other end opposite to the tip end portion 132. With this configuration, when the lock pin 130 is fitted into the internal space A, the lock pin 130 can be locked to the inner peripheral surface 126 of the hole 125, the lock pin 130 can be prevented from coming off the hole 125, and more stable. The state in which the lock pin 130 is fitted in the internal space A can be maintained.

また、本実施形態のロックピン130において、先端部132の長手方向の寸法は、ロックピン130全体の寸法の30〜60%程度が好ましい。弾性材料の先端部132の寸法が長すぎると、外力に対して脆くなってロックピン130の耐久性に問題が生じる場合がある。また、先端部132の寸法が短すぎると、外力に対して弾性変形しにくくなってロックピン130の内部空間Aへの嵌入が困難になる場合があるためである。 Further, in the lock pin 130 of the present embodiment, the lengthwise dimension of the tip portion 132 is preferably about 30 to 60% of the size of the entire lock pin 130. If the tip portion 132 of the elastic material is too long, it may become brittle against external force and cause a problem in durability of the lock pin 130. Further, if the size of the tip portion 132 is too short, it may be difficult to elastically deform with respect to an external force and it may be difficult to fit the lock pin 130 into the internal space A.

また、このロックピン130を用いるツース100のロック構造は、ショベルのバケットに設けられる支持部材110と、支持部材110に脱着可能に取り付けられる取替部材120と、支持部材110と取替部材120とを連結固定するロックピン130と、を備え、ロックピン130は、金属製の基端部131と、ロックピン130の長手方向に沿って基端部131の一端側に形成された弾性材料の先端部132と、を備える。ロックピン130は、支持部材110と取替部材120とに取り付けられた状態で、長手方向が取替部材120の脱着方向に沿って配置され、取替部材120を支持部材110の方向へ押圧する力を発生する。 Further, the lock structure of the tooth 100 using the lock pin 130 includes a support member 110 provided on a bucket of a shovel, a replacement member 120 detachably attached to the support member 110, a support member 110 and a replacement member 120. A lock pin 130 for connecting and fixing the lock pin 130. The lock pin 130 includes a metal base end portion 131 and a tip of an elastic material formed on one end side of the base end portion 131 along the longitudinal direction of the lock pin 130. And a part 132. The lock pin 130 is attached to the support member 110 and the replacement member 120, and the longitudinal direction thereof is arranged along the attachment/detachment direction of the replacement member 120, and presses the replacement member 120 toward the support member 110. Generate force.

特許文献1に記載される三層構造のロック部材は、ロック部材の挿入方向が、取替部材120の脱着方向と直交する方向(y方向またはz方向)であり、三層構造の積層方向もこの方向となる。ツース100の使用時に取替部材120が掘削物から受ける力は、取替部材120の先端が受け基端側に伝達される。このため、特許文献1のロック部材は、三層構造の境界面にせん断力が作用しやすくなるため、ロック部材の劣化が早まる虞がある。 In the lock member having the three-layer structure described in Patent Document 1, the insertion direction of the lock member is a direction (y direction or z direction) orthogonal to the attachment/detachment direction of the replacement member 120, and the stacking direction of the three-layer structure is also the same. This is the direction. The force received by the replacement member 120 from the excavated object when the tooth 100 is used is transmitted to the receiving base end side of the replacement member 120. Therefore, in the lock member of Patent Document 1, a shearing force is likely to act on the boundary surface of the three-layer structure, which may accelerate deterioration of the lock member.

これに対して本実施形態のロック構造では、ロックピン130の長手方向が取替部材120の脱着方向に沿う状態で嵌合されているので、ロックピン130は長手方向の圧縮力が作用し、取替部材120に基端側への力を伝達する。つまり、ロックピン130は短手方向の外力(せん断力)が基端部131と先端部132との境界面に作用しにくいので、ロックピン130の耐久性を向上できる。また、ロックピン130が取替部材120を支持部材110の方向へ押圧するので、取替部材120を支持部材110に確実に固定できる。 On the other hand, in the lock structure of the present embodiment, since the longitudinal direction of the lock pin 130 is fitted in a state of being along the detaching direction of the replacement member 120, the lock pin 130 is subjected to a compressive force in the longitudinal direction, The force to the proximal side is transmitted to the replacement member 120. That is, since the external force (shearing force) in the lateral direction of the lock pin 130 hardly acts on the boundary surface between the base end portion 131 and the tip end portion 132, the durability of the lock pin 130 can be improved. Further, since the lock pin 130 presses the replacement member 120 toward the support member 110, the replacement member 120 can be securely fixed to the support member 110.

また、本実施形態のツース100は、ショベルのバケットに設けられる支持部材110と、支持部材110の先端の凸部111が挿入される凹部112が基端に設けられ、所定方向(x方向)に突出して延在する取替部材120と、取替部材120の延在方向と交差する側方(y方向)の位置にて支持部材110に設けられる溝115と、側方の位置にて取替部材120に設けられ、取替部材120が支持部材110に嵌合した状態において溝115の一部が露出するよう配置される孔125と、孔125及び溝115により形成される内部空間Aに嵌入され、取替部材120と支持部材110とを連結固定する、上記のロックピン130と、を備える。ロックピン130は、内部空間Aに嵌入された状態では、その長手方向が取替部材120の延在方向に沿って配置され、支持部材110の溝115を長手方向の一方側(先端側)に押圧し、取替部材120の孔125の内周面126を長手方向の他方側(基端側)に押圧する。 Further, the tooth 100 of the present embodiment is provided with the support member 110 provided in the bucket of the shovel and the concave portion 112 into which the convex portion 111 of the tip of the support member 110 is inserted at the proximal end, and the tooth 100 in the predetermined direction (x direction). The replacement member 120 that projects and extends, the groove 115 that is provided in the support member 110 at a side position (y direction) that intersects the extension direction of the replacement member 120, and the replacement member at the side position. A hole 125 provided in the member 120 and arranged so that a part of the groove 115 is exposed when the replacement member 120 is fitted to the support member 110, and the hole 125 and the internal space A formed by the groove 115. And the lock pin 130 for connecting and fixing the replacement member 120 and the support member 110. When the lock pin 130 is fitted in the internal space A, the longitudinal direction of the lock pin 130 is arranged along the extending direction of the replacement member 120, and the groove 115 of the support member 110 is arranged on one side (the tip side) of the longitudinal direction. The inner peripheral surface 126 of the hole 125 of the replacement member 120 is pressed to the other side (base end side) in the longitudinal direction.

この構成により、ロックピン130の長手方向が取替部材120の脱着方向に沿う状態でロックピン130が内部空間Aに嵌合されて、取替部材120と支持部材110とを連結固定するので、取替部材120が支持部材110に対して先端側に抜けるのをより強固に抑制できる。 With this configuration, the lock pin 130 is fitted into the internal space A with the longitudinal direction of the lock pin 130 along the attachment/detachment direction of the replacement member 120, and the replacement member 120 and the support member 110 are connected and fixed. It is possible to more firmly prevent the replacement member 120 from coming off to the tip side with respect to the support member 110.

また、本実施形態のツース100では、孔125及び溝115により形成される内部空間Aは、孔125から支持部材110の先端側へロックピン130を挿入し、ロックピン130の先端部132が最奥部に突き当たった状態で、先端部132を長手方向に押圧して弾性圧縮しつつ、先端部132を中心としてロックピン130を溝115の方向に回動させることによって、ロックピン130が嵌入されるよう形成される。 Further, in the tooth 100 of the present embodiment, the internal space A formed by the hole 125 and the groove 115 is such that the lock pin 130 is inserted from the hole 125 to the distal end side of the support member 110, and the distal end portion 132 of the lock pin 130 is the maximum. With the tip 132 pressed in the longitudinal direction and elastically compressed, the lock pin 130 is rotated in the direction of the groove 115 around the tip 132 while the tip 132 is pressed against the back, so that the lock pin 130 is fitted. Is formed.

この構成により、ロックピン130は内部空間Aの最奥まで挿入して突き当て、その後に溝115側に倒して内部空間Aに嵌合されるので、ロックピン130は支持部材110の先端側の一方向にしか挿入できず、逆方向に挿入するなどの入れ間違いなど、ロックピン130の誤取付を防止できる。また、摩耗や劣化が早い弾性材料で形成される先端部132が内部空間Aの最奥に配置され、ロックピン130の外部に露出する部分は金属製の基端部131となるので、ロックピン130の劣化も抑制できる。 With this configuration, the lock pin 130 is inserted into the deepest part of the internal space A, but abuts against the groove 115, and then is tilted toward the groove 115 and fitted into the internal space A. The lock pin 130 can be inserted only in one direction, and it is possible to prevent the lock pin 130 from being erroneously attached due to a mistake such as insertion in the opposite direction. Further, since the tip end portion 132 formed of an elastic material that is quickly worn and deteriorated is disposed at the innermost part of the internal space A, and the portion exposed to the outside of the lock pin 130 becomes the metal base end portion 131, the lock pin is formed. The deterioration of 130 can also be suppressed.

また、本実施形態のツース100では、ロックピン130は、溝115の底面115bの全域を塞ぐ形状で形成される。これにより、ロックピン130と溝115や孔125との隙間に異物が進入することを防止できるので、進入した異物によってロックピン130が摩耗するのを防止できる。また、ロックピン130と内部空間Aとの隙間に異物が入らないことによって、ロックピン130を内部空間Aから取り外しやすくできる。 Further, in the tooth 100 of this embodiment, the lock pin 130 is formed in a shape that closes the entire bottom surface 115 b of the groove 115. As a result, foreign matter can be prevented from entering the gap between the lock pin 130 and the groove 115 or the hole 125, so that the lock pin 130 can be prevented from being worn by the foreign matter that has entered. Further, since no foreign matter enters the gap between the lock pin 130 and the internal space A, the lock pin 130 can be easily removed from the internal space A.

また、本実施形態のツース100では、ロックピン130は、先端部132が孔125から外部に露出しないように内部空間Aに嵌合される。これにより、変形しやすく摩耗しやすい弾性材料で形成される先端部132が、外部に露出しないように保護できるので、ロックピン130の劣化を抑制できる。 Further, in the tooth 100 of this embodiment, the lock pin 130 is fitted into the internal space A so that the tip portion 132 is not exposed to the outside from the hole 125. As a result, the tip portion 132 formed of an elastic material that is easily deformed and easily worn can be protected so as not to be exposed to the outside, and thus deterioration of the lock pin 130 can be suppressed.

また、本実施形態のツース100では、ロックピン130は、先端部132が長手方向に弾性圧縮した状態で内部空間Aに嵌入された後に、先端部132が弾性復帰してロックピン130の全長が伸びることによって、先端部132が支持部材110の溝115を長手方向の一方側(先端側)に押圧し、基端部131が、取替部材120の孔125の内周面126を長手方向の他方側(基端側)に押圧する。 Further, in the tooth 100 of the present embodiment, the lock pin 130 is fitted into the internal space A in a state in which the distal end portion 132 is elastically compressed in the longitudinal direction, and then the distal end portion 132 elastically returns so that the entire length of the lock pin 130. By the extension, the distal end portion 132 presses the groove 115 of the support member 110 to one side (the distal end side) in the longitudinal direction, and the proximal end portion 131 moves the inner peripheral surface 126 of the hole 125 of the replacement member 120 in the longitudinal direction. Press on the other side (base end side).

この構成により、ロックピン130を内部空間A内でさらに溝115及び孔125との密着性を高めることができ、支持部材110の抜けと、内部空間Aへの異物混入をさらに抑制できる。 With this configuration, the lock pin 130 can further improve the adhesiveness with the groove 115 and the hole 125 in the internal space A, and the detachment of the support member 110 and the entry of foreign matter into the internal space A can be further suppressed.

また、本実施形態のツース100では、ロックピン130は、先端部132とは反対側の基端部131の他端に階段状に形成された段差面131aを有し、孔125は、内周面のうちロックピン130の嵌合時に段差面131aと対向する面126に段差面131aと嵌合する段差形状が形成される。 Further, in the tooth 100 of the present embodiment, the lock pin 130 has the stepped surface 131a formed stepwise at the other end of the base end portion 131 on the opposite side to the tip end portion 132, and the hole 125 has an inner circumference. A step shape that fits with the step surface 131a is formed on the surface 126 that faces the step surface 131a when the lock pin 130 is fitted.

この構成により、ロックピン130の内部空間Aへの嵌合の度合を作業者に容易に視認させることができる。例えば、作業者は、孔125の内周面126に対して、ロックピン130の段差面131aのどの段まで挿入されているかをみれば、ロックピン130をさらに溝115側へ押し込むことができるのか、または、ロックピン130が内部空間Aに完全に嵌合しているかなどを容易に把握できる。これにより、ロックピン130の取り付け作業の作業効率を向上できる。 With this configuration, the degree of fitting of the lock pin 130 into the internal space A can be easily recognized by the operator. For example, the worker can push the lock pin 130 further into the groove 115 side by checking up to which step of the step surface 131a of the lock pin 130 is inserted into the inner peripheral surface 126 of the hole 125. Alternatively, it is possible to easily grasp whether or not the lock pin 130 is completely fitted in the internal space A. Thereby, the work efficiency of the work of attaching the lock pin 130 can be improved.
