Definitions

  • ABSTRACT An impact force producing apparatus that is described in connection with one particularly suitable use on a backhoe vehicle although it is usable on other vehicles and apparatus.
  • a frame is provided which can be attached directly to the backhoe.
  • a heavy ram is flexibly mounted to the frame in such a manner that it may freely oscillate relative to the frame. Attached to the ram is a hydraulic motor coupled with an eccentric weight to provoke vibrational movement in the ram. The relative inertias and locations.
  • the resilient mountings and the driving force of the ec centric weight are interrelated to create a vibratory motion in the ram which provides a unidirectional impact on a tool positioned on the frame and drives the ram near a resonance of the system.
  • Guides may be provided to eliminate secondary harmonics and extraneous vibrations and movements.
  • This invention relates to a hydraulic hammer. More specifically, this invention is directed to an improved vibratory impact hammer employing a rotating eccentric weight to establish vibrational movement.
  • Vibratory impact hammers have been developed which operate on a variety of principles. Some of these hammers have employed the use of one or more rotating eccentric weights to develop useful vibration that may be employed to break pavement, compact earth, drill holes and perform other similar functions. The more successful of these hammers, driven by rotating eccentric weights, have employed a multiple number of such weights constrained to rotate with respect to one another so that the resulting centrifugal force of the weights in an oscillating force directed along a single line that is in line with the impact motion of the ram. The use of such a system of weights avoids the generation of oscillations which are perpendicular to the desired impact motion of the hammer. In suggested systems employing a single eccentric, such as in US. Pat. Nos.
  • the present invention contemplates the use of a single eccentric weight strategically positioned on a ram for producing useful vibratory motion without requiring substantial lateral restraints.
  • the resulting motion induced in the ram by the rotating eccentric weight includes both lateral and longitudinal oscillations at the center of gravity of the ram but is limited to oscillations in the longitudinal or impact direction at the striker plate of the ram.
  • a tool placed to receive impacts from the ram at the striker plate is not subjected to lateral forces and lateral relative motion of the ram which would otherwise result in high wear and energy losses.
  • the lateral force components of the rotating eccentric weight are allowed to induce lateral vibrations in the ram which are restrained only by flexible, resilient mounts.
  • the resulting motion in both the lateral and longitudinal directions operates to impart a maximum longitudinal impact to the tool at the striker plate of the ram without requiring driving mechanisms of relatively large capacity.
  • This motion of the ram cooperates with the flexible, resilient mounts to store the rebounded energy not transmitted to the work through the tool and to store the continual imput from the eccentric weight for delivery to the tool on succeeding impacts.
  • the driving mechanism need not be of sufficient capacity to induce in one cycle the total power neces sary to provide the impact required for that cycle. Instead, the required additional input to the system during each cycle need only be sufficient to replace the work expended by the tool and lost through mechanical inefficiencies in the system.
  • the hammer also employs a vibration range near the natural resonance of the system to enhance the energy transfer and storage within the system.
  • a vibration range near the natural resonance of the system to enhance the energy transfer and storage within the system.
  • the present invention also includes strategically positioned constraining means which operate to attenuate undesirable harmonic and random vibrations. These constraining means do not interfere with the normal os cillator'y motion of the ram and hence do not detract from the operating efficiencies and advantages of the system.
  • a second object of the present invention is to provide a vibratory impact hammer which advantageously allows lateral vibratory motion of the ram and at the same time provides linear impacting motion against an impact tool.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a vibratory impact hammer which employs a single eccentric to drive a ram against a tool where the ram is free tooscillate perpendicular to the impact direction.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a vibratory impact hammer which employs resonant motion of an impacting member to advantageously store and transmit impact energy.
  • Still another object of this invention is to provide a vibratory impact hammer that employs a ram of a relatively large mass which may be vibrated through a comparatively small stroke and yet produce impact forces comparable to conventional devices of great size, cost or power consumption.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a freely oscillating vibratory hammer having directional constraints to attenuate undesirable harmonic and random vibratory motion.

  • the lower bushing 162 is restrained from moving upward because of the reduced diameter at the center of the hole 158.
  • the lower bushing 162 is restrained from moving downwardly and out of the tool holder 154 by a tool stop plate 166 bolted to the lower surface of the tool holder 154.
  • the cylindrical tool 146 is retained within the tool holder 154 by a tool retainer pin 168 which cooperates with a notch 170 in the tool body 150.
  • the tool retainer pin 168 extends laterally across the tool holder 154 in such a manner that it partially extends through the hole 158 in the tool holder 154 as best seen in FIG. 5.
  • Extensions 172 and 174 extend from the ends of the tool retainer pin 168 to engage two retainer plates 176 and 178.
  • the retainer plates are positioned on either side of the tool holder 154 and are fastened thereto by bolts 180.
  • the notch 170 allows free travel of the tool 146 in the hole 158 along the length of the notch 170.
  • a collar 182 is provided along the cylindrical body 1511. The collar 182 is positioned to engage the tool stop plate 166 at a predetermined preload position. Normal operation of the hammer is conducted with the tool 168 forced upward to engage the collar 182 with the tool stop plate 166.
  • the limited travel of the tool 146 creates two advantageous conditions. First, the tool is automatically retracted from impacting engagement with the ram 34 when the hammer is lifted from the work. This automatic separation of the tool prevents eventual destruction of the hammer caused by the ram impacting the frame. Elaborate mechanisms are quite often required in other impact hammers to insure that the ram will not destroy the frame when driven in an unloaded condition.
  • the second advantageous condition provided by the limited travel of the tool 146 is the automatic establishment of a preselected preload on the ram regardless of the downward force exerted against the hammer by the backhoe.
  • the backhoe may be operated by forcing the frame 10 toward the work until the tool 146 moves far enough to engage the collar 182 with the tool stop plate 166. Any further downward pressure by the backhoe would be directly transmitted to the work because the collar 182 interferes with any further upward motion of the tool 146.
  • the preload position of the tool 146 is determined by the position of the collar 182 on the tool body 150.
  • the tool 146 is shown in the preloaded position in FIG. 9.
  • the preloaded position of the tool 146 establishes the extent to which the tool interferes with the path of the vibrating ram 34. If the selected preload is excessive, the eccentric weight 36 would not be capable of lifting the ram 34 from the tool to provide a subsequent impact. This condition would occur when the rotating eccentric weight 36 is unable to overcome the downward forces of the resilient elements 109, 110, 112 and 114 created by forcing the tool 146 and the ram 34 upward relative to the frame 10. When an insufficient preload is established for the hammer, the ram 34 will begin to lose velocity in the impact direction before the striker plate 107 of the hammer 34 contacts the anvil surface 148 of the tool 146. In this condition, the maximum available impact would not be realized.
  • a range of preloadings are therefore available with any specific hammer configuration. Only a change in the distance from the collar 182 to the anvil surface 148 is required.
  • the vibrational motion of the ram 34 is significantly altered by the imposition of the tool 146 into the paths of the vibrating ram.
  • the time-displacement curve for the vertical oscillations of the ram 34 varies from sinesoidal to a cut-off wave motion similar to that shown in FIG. 13. If the impact of the ram 34 on the tool 46 were completely elastic and if the too] were placed at the midpoint in the vertical travel of the ram, it is believed that the natural frequency of the system, operating under linear conditions, would be double the free natural frequency of the ram 34. Because the present system envisions a nonlinear preload condition, the natural frequency is not located at twice the natural frequency of the free moving ram 34.
  • the natural frequency of the ram of the present embodiment is not 980 cpm which is double the free natural frequency of the ram 34, 490 cpm. Instead, the system response more closely approximates the shape of the curve in FIG. 12.
  • the operating frequency may therefore be in a broad range above the nonlinear natural frequency.
  • the present system has been found to operate best between 1,150 and 1,350 cpm when loaded. This places the operating zone of the present system along the portion of the nonlinear curve marked 184 in FIG. 12. As with the free vibration mode of the system, the symmetry of the system causes the motion of the ram 34 to lie in a plane parallel to the two side plates 12 and 14. 7
  • the frequency range of operation of the hammer when loaded is directly dependent upon the input pressure to the motor 72 and the hardness and resiliency of the work.
  • the ram 34 will be driven at the same frequency as the driving eccentric weight 36.
  • the pressure relief control valve 145 is provided wnst eamw qfl irfl wh sr .lioarwrate as a control on the working frequency of the system.
  • the input is controlled by the maximum flow allowed through the flow divider.
  • the pressure downstream of the flow divider 144 is reduced to equalize the power requirement of the motor 72 in this unloaded condition.
  • the frequency at which the eccentric weight 36 can be rotated under a preselected hydraulic pressure is achieved.
  • Various modifications to the device and its controls can cause changes in the frequency of the loaded system, such as the pressure setting of valve 145, the magnitude of precompression caused by tool 146, a flow rate of a different order of magnitude to cause operation near a different mode of resonant frequency, etc.
  • the pressure setting on the relief valve 145 the system may be driven toward or away from the natural frequency of the system. In this way, the frequency and the responsive stroke can be regulated through regulation of the pressure of the hydraulic fluid delivered to the motor 72.
  • the pressure setting for the present embodiment has been established at 1,700 psi.
  • the unconstrained motion of the ram 34 provides advantageous operation when the total force of the backhoe presses directly along the centerline of the too].
  • such conditions cannot always be met.
  • the hammer be employed to pound at an angle to the vertical.
  • variations in the resistance encountered by the tool 146 can cause momentary load changes.
  • Constraining means are strategically positioned on the frame 10 to cooperate with the vibrating ram 34 to attenuate such undesirable harmonic and random vibrations.
  • the constraining means cooperate with the vibrating ram 34 near the horizontal node thereof.
  • This constraining means may be provided by two guides generally designated 186 and 188 attached to the frame 10 and positioned on either side of the vibrating ram 34 at the horizontal node.
  • the two guides 186 and 188 are identical and only guide 186 will be described.
  • the guide 186 includes a base plate 190 which is fixed to the side plate 12 by fasteners 192.
  • a key 194 extends into a slot 196 provided on the tool holder 154 to insure that the guide 186 will be unable to rotate from its position.
  • the base plate 190 has a vertical channel 198 extending the height of the base plate 190.
  • Flanges 200 are provided on either side of the base plate 190 along the inner face thereof. The flanges 200 extend inwardly to form two lips overhanging the channel 198.
  • the channel 198 is open at the bottom.
  • a resilient snubber 202 is provided as a means for resiliently closing the upper end of the channel 198.
  • the resilient snubber 202 is bonded to a thin plate 204 which extends outwardly from the snubber 202 to cover the top of the base plate 190.
  • An angle member 206 is positioned over the thin plate 204 to securely support the snubber 202.
  • the angle memher includes a leg 208 which extends downwardly to cover a portion of the channel 198 and provide lateral support to the resilient snubber 202.
  • Two fasteners 210 hold the angle member 206 rigidly to the base plate 190.
  • the lower bracket member 106 includes two slider pins 212 and 214.
  • Slider pins 212 and 214 are cylindrical, extend outwardly from the lower bracket 106 of the ram 34 and are centered on either side of the striking surface of the striker plate 107. Because of their location relative to the striker plate 107, the pins 212 and 214 are located at the horizontal node of the oscillating ram 34.
  • Slider pin 212 extends into the guide 186 and slider pin 214 extends into the guide 188.
  • Slider pin 212 extends into the guide 186 and slider pin 214 extends into the guide 188.
  • Around each of the slider pins is positioned a slide block 216 and 218.
  • the slide blocks 216 and 218 are also identical.
  • the slide block 216 is generally rectangular and slidably fits within the channel 198.
  • the slider block 216 prevents a lateral motion of the slider pin 212 because of its location within the channel 198.
  • the flanges 200 associated with the base plate 190 extend inwardly to lock the slider block 216 within the channel 198.
  • the slider pin 212 is prevented from substantial upward movement by the contacting of the slider block 216 with the resilient snubber 202. Consequently, the slider pins 212 and 214 and necessarily the bottom of the ram 34 are prevented from performing lateral oscillations. Further, the ram 34 is prevented from exaggerated vertical oscillations which may randomly occur by the snubber 202.
  • the positioning of the guides 186 and 188 at the horizontal node of the ram 34 allows the ram 34 to progress through its normal oscillations without interference from the guides 186 and 188. Consequently, the efficiencies and advantageous motions of the ram 34 are not interferred with by the guides. Further, the ram 34 does not operate to exert continuing forces against the guides 186 and 188 during vibration of the hammer.
