Definitions

  • the tangs are placed through slots in the bed of 104/35 44 248/20- 29/ 513- the apparatus, and wedges are forced into the slots of 28O/433 3 308/227 the tangs to secure the tangs beneath the lower surface of the bed.
  • the present invention relates to large material handling systems; and more particularly, it relates to a system and method for removably mounting a su perstructure to the bed of a mobile crane.
  • a large mobile crane of the type with which the present invention is concerned includes a vehicle which provides a flat bed on which there is mounted a crane superstructure.
  • the superstructure houses the prime mover, usually a diesel engine, and a movable boom and gantry are attached to the superstructure.
  • the superstructure In operation, the superstructure is mounted on the bed of the vehicle for rotation about a vertical axis.
  • the bearing which interconnects the superstructure to the vehicle bed is sometimes referred to as a slue ring or swing circle.
  • the present invention is concerned with a method and system for connecting a slue ring to a vehicle bed which has fewer connections than the previous bolt systems between the bearingand the vehicle bed (resulting in a reduction in the amount of space allocated to these connections) and to alleviating the necessity of using large tools which are hard to handle.
  • the bearing which forms the swing circle includes an outer race which is connected to the crane superstructure and rotates as the superstructure turns, and an inner race which is adapted to be fixedly, but removably mounted on the bed of the vehicle.
  • an outer race which is connected to the crane superstructure and rotates as the superstructure turns
  • an inner race which is adapted to be fixedly, but removably mounted on the bed of the vehicle.
  • the inner race of the bearing is provided with a plurality of depending tangs, each defining a slot elongated horizontally and having a lower, inclined surface.
  • the tangs are placed through corresponding slots in the bed of the vehicle, and a wedge is forced into each of the slots of the tangs beneath the vehicle bed. That is, the wedge is located between the inclined surface of a tang slot and the lower surface of the vehicle bed.
  • the wedges are then locked in place, and means are provided for bracing the tangs against the frame of the vehicle to prevent turning of the inner race during operation.
  • the wedges may be forced into place by a hydraulic jack or simply by using a sledge hammer thus obviating the need for torque wrenches and the like. Further, only 10 such tang and wedge connections need be made for the very large 250 ton crane mentioned above. A smaller number of tangs, for example, six or eight, could be used for a crane designed for a smaller capacity.
  • pairs of the tangs should be located diametrically, adjacent ones of the tangs need not be located at equal angular increments about the bearing. This enables the tangs to be located in positions of greater access.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a material handling apparatus incorporating the present invention with portions of the boom and vehicle cab removed;
  • FIG 2 is a perspective view of the underside of the superstructure, showing the swing circle
  • FIG. 3 is an upper perspective view of the vehicle bed showing the slots for receiving the tangs on the swing circle;
  • FIG. 4 is a side elevational view showing the swing circle mounted on the vehicle bed
  • FIG. 5 is a plan view illustrating the mounting of the swing circle on the vehicle bed with portions broken away;
  • FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view taken through the sight line 6-6 of FIG. 5;
  • FIG. 7 is a detailed side view taken through the sight line 7-7 of FIG. 5;
  • FIG. 8 is an end view illustrating one tang mounted beneath the vehicle bed
  • reference numeral 10 generally designates a large mobile material handling apparatus including a crane generally designated 11 mounted on a wheeled vehicle 12.
  • the vehicle 12 includes a horizontal flat bed 13 on which a crane superstructure 14 is mounted by means of a swing circle or slue ring generally designated 15.
  • the swing circle is provided with bearings to permit rotation of the superstructure about a vertical axis, as will be described in greater detail below.
  • the crane superstructure includes a boom 16, only a portion of which is shown, pivotally mounted for rotation about a horizontal axis to raise and lower the boom.
  • Boom 16 may be elevated by appropriate means such as a cable assembly including a gantry partially seen at 17.
  • the vehicle 12 is provided with laterally extensible Outriggers 19 for stabilizing the vehicle and crane in operation to increase the tipping circle.
  • the base or bottom of the superstructure 14 is a horizontal plate 20, to which the swing circle 15 is secured.
  • the swing circle 15, as mentioned, is a bearing permitting rotation .of the superstructure relative to the vehicle bed 13.
  • the swing circle 15 includes an outer race 21 and an inner race 22.
  • the outer race 21 of the swing circle may be formed in upper and lower sections, best seen in FIG. 8 and designated 23 and 24 respectively.
  • the upper and lower sections 23, 24 of the outer race 21 form an annular channel having an upper bearing surface 23a, a lower bearing surface 24a, and a side bearing surface 25.
  • the sections 23, 24 of the outer race are held together, and the combination secured to the base plate of the superstructure by means of bolts 27.
  • bolts 27 There are 30 separate bolts 27 holding the two sections of the outer race 21 together, as seen in FIGS. 2 and 4. These bolts also are connected to the superstructure.
  • the inner race 22 of the swing circle has a generally cylindrical shape, and it includes a peripheral thrust flange 29 and an inner gear 30 which forms a reaction base for driving the superstructure in rotation relative to the bed 13 of the vehicle.
  • the thrust flange 29 is received in the annular channel formed in the outer race 21.
  • a split upper roller bearing 31 is located between the bearing surface 23a of the upper section 21 of the outer race and the upper surface of the thrust flange 29.
  • a split roller bearing 32 is located between the lower surface of the thrust flange 29 and the bearing surface 24a.
  • a retainer member 33 holds the upper split roller bearings 31 in place and a similar retainer member 34 holds the lower split roller bearings 32 in place.
  • a side roller bearing 35 is located between the side of the thrust flange 29 and the bearing surface formedin the annular channel of the outer race.
  • a plurality of such roller bearing arrangements are located about the entire thrust flange 29 to maintain a low friction engagement between the outer and inner races 21, 22.
  • a plurality of tongues (herein referred to as tangs) 37 depend from the inner race 22 of the bearing.
  • tangs 37 For the large 250 ton crane, there are 10 tangs 37 located about the periphery of the inner race 22.
  • the tangs 37 are arranged to form diametrically opposed pairs, but the angular spacing between adjacent tangs need not be the same throughout. This allows placement of the tangs 37 in those locations to which access is most easily gained, depending upon the frame beneath the bed 13 of the vehicle.
  • Each of the tangs 37 is provided with a horizontally elongated slot 38, and each of the slots 38 has a lower inclined bearing surface 39.
  • Some of the bearing surfaces 39 are inclined upwardly as viewed looking toward the center of the swing circle, and others are inclined downwardly when so viewed.
  • the slots 38 are adapted to receive a wedge 40, and the different inclinations of the bearing surfaces 39 is to permit insertion of the wedges 40 from different directions, as viewed in side section. For example, in FIG. 8, the center of the swing circle is to the left of the illustration, and the wedge is inserted from outside the inner race 22 of the bearing.
  • the wedge 40 has an inclined surface 41 for engaging the bearing surface 39 of the slot 38, and the wedge 40 is interposed between the bearing surface 39 and the lower surface of the bed 13 of the vehicle.
  • the upper surface of the slot 38 is located above the lower surface of the bed 13 when the swing circle is in assembled relation with the bed so that the wedging action is maintained between the tangs 37 and the bed 13.
  • the tangs 37 are received in corresponding slots 43 (as best seen in FIG. 3) formed in the bed 13 lying in the general shape of a circle.
  • the upper surface of the bed 13 is machined in a flat angular path 44 to form flat surface for the race 22 to rest on between the tangs 37.
  • each of the tangs 37 is provided with a pair of internally threaded apertures located to either side of the slot 38 for receiving bolts 48 which secure a cross bar 49 against the outer side surface of the wedge 40 after it is forced in place by a hydraulic jack or sledge hammer. It is an important advantage of the present invention that no special tools or force-measuring devices are needed for the proper insertion of the wedges 40.
  • EAeh of the wedges 40 includes a central tapped aperture 50 in its outer surface to which a tool may be threaded for removing the wedge when it is desired to disassemble the superstructure from the bed of the vehicle.
  • a frame comprising a grid of interconnected braces or support bars is shown in dashed line and generally designated by reference numeral 52.
  • the frame 52 is located beneath the vehicle bed 13, and this framework is so arranged that a pair of spaced bars 53, 53a is located on either side of the slots 43 which are located at the 3 o'clock and nine oclock positions.
  • Each of the tangs may have associated with it a pair of frame bars as at 5353a, or, alternatively, there may be only one such frame bar associated with a tang, as at 54 and 55 which are associated with adjacent tangs.
  • the frame bars 53, 53a, 54 and 55 serve as braces for preventing rotation of the inner race 22 of the bearing. For example, referring to FIG.
  • a hole 56 is formed in the brace bar 53 and a corresponding hole 57 is formed in the brace bar 53a.
  • a threaded bolt 58 extends through the hole 56 and is provided with a nut 59 and a washer 60 which engages the inner surface of the brace bar 53. After the wedges have been properly installed in their associated tang slots, the bolt 58 is turned while the nut 59 is held until the bolt 58 engages the end of the tang 37, thereby forcing the washer 60 against the brace bar 53 and preventing the tang 37 from moving to the right.
  • associated with the hole 57 in the brace bar 53a is a bolt 62, a nut 63 and a washer 64. The bolt 62 is tightened to engage the left end of the tang 37.
  • brace bar and locking mechanism For the tang locations at the 6 oclock and 12 oclock positions in FIG. 5, only one such brace bar and locking mechanism is associated with each tang; however, these locking mechanisms, generally designated by reference numerals 67 and 68 act in opposing directions on the inner race 22 so as to prevent relative rotational movement between that inner race and the vehicle bed 13.
  • the wedges associated with the upper and lower pairs of tangs are inserted from the inside of the slue ring, whereas the three wedges on each side of the illustration are inserted from outside the slue ring.
  • the lower bearing surfaces (identified by reference numeral 39 in FIG. 8) are inclined in corresponding directions to fully engage the inclined surface 41 of their associated wedges, depending upon the direction of insertion of the wedge.
  • Attached to the inner wall of the inner race 22 is abottom pan 70 (see FIG. 5) which forms a bottom cover for the swing circle when it is removed from the vehicle bed.
  • the tangs 37 of the inner race are placed through the slots 43 which have sufficient clearance to permit easy insertion of the slots.
  • the wedges 40 are inserted into the apertures 38 of, the tangs 37 in their intended direction, as with a sledge hammer or hydraulic jack.
  • the cross bars 49 are assembled to their associated tangs by means of the bolts 48 to hold the wedges firmly in place.
  • the side locking mechanisms are inserted in the ribs forming the framework beneath the vehicle bed to engage the ends of the tangs and prevent rotation of the inner race of the swing circle during operation.
  • the disassembly includes the reverse steps to those just described, except that in removing the wedge itself, a threaded bolt is inserted in the aperture 50 to the wedge 40 to facilitate hydraulic withdrawal of the wedge.
  • the present invention provides for a system for mounting a slue ring onto the bed of a vehicle wherein only 10 individual connections need be made between the vehicle bed and the slue ring, and these connections are simply and easily made without the need for tools which are expensive or hard to handle. Further, there are no critical adjustments or measurements to be made during installation.
