The present invention relates to a triple safety device for a quick coupler. In particular, in the connecting process of a quick coupler for connecting a heavy-duty attachment to an excavator, the attachment pin and the quick coupler body are prevented from being arbitrarily released, A quick coupler having a structure improved to prevent any detachment of the fixed hook and the attachment pin by using the elastic force of the compression spring, the tensile force of the tension spring, and the locking protrusion formed on the fixed hook Triple safety device.
Generally, heavy equipment used in construction site or civil engineering site, for example, excavator is widely used construction equipment such as road construction, waterworks and drainage construction, construction foundation construction, land construction construction, And various attachments are selectively installed according to the operation of the system.
For example, it is possible to use a bucket for grounding, crushing and rebuilding concrete buildings using a crusher, rock and concrete destruction using a breaker, and scrap and rock transport using a grab , And work on the foundation work of construction of vertical shaft and waterworks and sewerage using clamshell bucket. It is possible to perform various work while replacing various kinds of attachments.
In general, the attachment is attached to the arm of the excavator so that it can be replaced with the purpose of the work, and recently, a separate coupler is mounted on the arm of the excavator, and a quick coupler Has been developed and widely used.
The quick coupler is rigidly mounted to the arm of the excavator and the push link of the cylinder through the two pin coupling structures in the quick coupler body, and is structured so that the attachment can be fastened by using the fixed hook and the hitch.
Accordingly, the operator can easily handle and use the attachment by a method in which the operator of the excavator operates the lever to couple or separate the quick coupler mounted on the end of the arm to a bucket, a breaker, or the like.
On the other hand, the quick coupler is equipped with a safety device, for example, a safety pin, as a means to prevent the risk of separation of the attachment due to a malfunction of the hydraulic cylinder in the quick coupler or damage to the hydraulic hose .
However, when replacing an attachment such as a bucket or a breaker in a quick coupler, the worker must manually manually remove the safety pin from the attached attachment or fasten the safety pin after mounting the new attachment, which makes the work difficult and cumbersome In addition, there is a disadvantage that it takes a lot of time to work.
Prior art related to this is disclosed in Korean Patent Registration No. 10-0739341 entitled " Heavy-duty Attachment Coupler with Automatic Safety Device "(Registered Date: 2007.07.09), the transfer hook is connected to a hydraulic cylinder and an automatic safety device cylinder And the automatic safety device cylinder is unlocked only when the hydraulic cylinder is normally released. In this case, however, the automatic safety device cylinder must be separately provided.
As another prior art, in Korean Registered Patent Publication No. 10-1210833 entitled " automatic safety device of a quick coupler "(registration date: 2012.12.05), on the upper side of the fixed hook The hitch is interlocked to prevent the pin from coming off. However, there is still a problem due to the failure of the hydraulic cylinder or the damage of the hydraulic hose, and the reliability of the safety device is low.
In the case of the existing quick coupler, since the hitch is rotated with respect to the hinge so as to be coupled with the attachment pin, there is a disadvantage that there is a restriction on the surrounding environment at the time of engagement and disengagement.
Further, there is a disadvantage in that the structure of the safety device for preventing the engagement state with the attachment pin coupled to the fixed hook is not arbitrarily released, and the maintenance of the parts is not easy.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems, and its object is to simplify a structure of a locking device capable of safely maintaining a state of engagement between an attachment pin and a quick coupler fixing hook, The locking hooks of the fixed hooks can be easily operated in association with the operation of the hydraulic cylinder that operates the hitches after the assembling of the heavy-duty attaching pin, and the locking hooks of the fixed hooks can be easily removed by using the elastic force of the compression spring, And a triple safety device of a quick coupler whose structure is improved to prevent any deviation of the attachment pin.
According to an aspect of the present invention,
A quick coupler body connected to the arm of the excavator; a fixed hook provided at one side of the quick coupler body and coupled with the first attachment pin; and a fixed hook provided on the other side of the quick coupler body and connected to the cylinder rod of the hydraulic cylinder, And a locking means for preventing any disengagement of the fixed hook and the first attachment pin from each other, wherein the locking means is fixed to the outside of the cylinder tube of the hydraulic cylinder A compression spring which is provided between the fixing member and the hitch to apply a compression elastic force and one end of which is connected to the other side of the fixing member and the other end of which is fixed to the body support so as to apply a tensile force to pull the cylinder tube toward the body support A tension spring coupled to one side of the cylinder tube and interlocked when the cylinder tube is moved A first attachment pin disposed on the upper side of the fixed hook for blocking the separation of the fixed hook and the first attachment pin, and a movement guide provided on the inner side of the quick coupler body facing each other for allowing the hitch to slide forward and backward, A guide protrusion formed on the outer side of the hitch so as to slide on the movement guide and a guide protrusion protruding upward from an end of the movement guide to restrict the backward movement of the hitch, And a stopper is provided.
And the oil pressure supplied to the other direction of the hydraulic cylinder to reverse the hitch is larger than the spring force of the compression spring and the tension spring.
The separation block is fixed to one side of the cylinder tube and interlocked with the movement of the cylinder tube. The separation block is detachably coupled to the lower side of the connection block, and is disposed on the upper side of the first attachment pin when the connection block is moved forward And a separation preventing plate for blocking the separation of the first attachment pin from the fixing hook.
And the fixing hook is formed such that a locking protrusion protrudes in a direction to reduce the width of the entry opening at the end of the entry port side where the first attachment pin enters.
And the connection block is further provided with a hydraulic circuit for transmitting an external hydraulic pressure to the inside of the cylinder tube.
According to the present invention, the hitch is moved back and forth in such a manner that the hitch is slidably moved on the inner side surfaces facing each other in accordance with the forward and backward movement of the cylinder rod, and by the reaction force generated in forward and backward movement of the hitch, As a result of the movement of the cylinder tube in the left and right directions, the departure prevention block connected to the end of the cylinder tube interlocks with the movement of the cylinder tube to selectively perform the departure-preventing function of the first attachment pin, It is possible to prevent the safety pin from being detached from the attachment pin and to secure the assembled state of the first attachment pin assembled to the fixed hook to improve the safety.
Further, since the hitch is slidably moved to the quick coupler body by the rod operation of the cylinder, the present invention has an advantage that the engagement and disengagement of the hitch and the second attachment pin are facilitated.
Also, in the emergency state in which the hydraulic pressure is not supplied to the hydraulic cylinder due to leakage or the like, the cylinder tube and the departure prevention block are pulled toward the body support by the tensile force of the tension spring, It is advantageous in that the deviation direction of the first attachment pin is limited to a diagonal line due to the structural property of the fixing hook having the hooking protrusion, so that it is interfered with the escape prevention plate to block any deviation.
In addition, the present invention provides a resilient force that pushes the hitch outward even in an emergency during a leaking state, so that it can perform a function of preventing any deviation of the hitch and the second attachment pin even if a problem occurs in the cylinder, A force greater than the elastic force of the compression spring is applied to the body, and even if the body is detached, the length of the free length remains. Thus, the force to push the cylinder toward the body support so that the separation prevention plate is positioned above the first attachment pin Therefore, even when either one of the tension spring and the compression spring is broken and only one of the compression spring and the tension spring is operated, not only the hydraulic pressure problem but also the spring force causes the release prevention plate to move to the upper side of the first attachment pin So that the first attachment pin can be prevented from departing from the first attachment pin do.
