Definitions
- the invention relates to the field of public works machinery, and more particularly with loaders. More specifically, it targets device ensuring automatic correction of the bucket orientation during different loading operations.
- a "loader” is a public works machine which allows materials taken up from the ground to be taken up and dumped into a grab or in a truck, or vice versa.
- a loader therefore understands so.
- known a chassis and special work equipment. This equipment work typically includes two parallel arms that are hinged relative to the frame. These arms can be lifted under the action of jacks generally called “arm cylinders”.
- the ends of the arms receive a bucket, which is itself articulated by compared to the arms.
- the work equipment also includes a set of rods which form with a portion of the bucket and the arms, a deformable parallelogram.
- one of these links is articulated relative to the bucket, while the other is articulated relative to the arms, these two links being articulated to each other by their ends.
- Work equipment also includes a bucket cylinder which is controlled to cause the deformation of the deformable parallelogram, which ensures the orientation of the bucket relative to the arms.
- Driver can control arm cylinder and cylinder separately of bucket.
- arm jack By acting on the arm jack, it raises the arms by raising the bucket level
- the orientation of the bucket varies relative to the ground.
- the orientation of the bucket relative to the arms is modified by the deformation of the parallelogram deformable.
- the bucket cylinder is therefore actuated to maintain the opening of the bucket in a constant inclination, to prevent it from spilling backwards unexpectedly.
- This bucket tilt correction can be performed by the operator which acts appropriately on the bucket cylinder through the manipulator.
- This bucket tilt correction can also take place automatic by a correction device.
- a correction device includes so known a connecting rod which is articulated at one of these ends on one of the deformable parallelogram links. At its other end, the connecting rod acts on a hydraulic distributor drawer supplying the bucket cylinder. This rod linkage actuates the distributor drawer which acts on the bucket cylinder depending on the position of the connecting rod, i.e. depending on the orientation of the bucket relative to the arms.
- this automatic correction generates resistance in the movement of the manipulator which is felt by the driver and which can be unpleasant.
- a first problem which the invention proposes to solve is that of allow a correction of the inclination of the bucket, without the latter being felt at the level of the manipulator.
- Another problem that seeks to solve the invention is that of allowing an automatic correction of the inclination of the bucket compatible with the use of a more ergonomic hydraulic manipulator than a mechanical manipulator.
- the link bar ensures the mechanical return of information the angle between the arm and the link of the deformable parallelogram.
- This bar link causes the rotation of a cam which acts on a hydraulic valve.
- This valve delivers a pressure which, if it is higher than that delivered by the manipulator, takes precedence over the latter so that the distributor corrected the bucket cylinder.
- the circuit selector is placed on the portion of the hydraulic circuit which ensures the dumping of the bucket Indeed, it is of paramount importance that the bucket does not tip over backwards when it is lifted during the loading.
- the correction device generates a control pressure which is compared with the pressure from the manipulator hydraulic when the latter is controlled for raising the arms.
- this machine (1) comprises a work equipment (2) enabling it to perform the function of loader.
- This work equipment (2) mainly comprises two arms (3) located on the side and other of the machine. By their rear ends (4), these arms (3) are articulated on the chassis (5). These arms (3) have a slightly curved shape so that their front ends (6) are located substantially at ground level in the lowest position of the arms (3).
- These arms (3) can be moved under faction two arm cylinders (7) also located on either side of the chassis (5).
- These cylinders (7) are articulated by one end (8) on the chassis, and by their end opposite (9) to the main arms (3), substantially at the median level (10) of these last.
- the main arms (3) receive a bucket (15).
- This bucket (15) is articulated relative to the arms (3), so that it can be tilted at different angles.
- the opening (16) of the bucket can be oriented either forwards when it comes to penetrating materials (17), or backwards when the cup (15) is filled and it is moved.
- the work equipment (2) also comprises two rods (20, 21) which form, with the extremal part of the arm (3) and part of the cup (15), a deformable parallelogram. More specifically, the equipment work (2) comprises a first rear link (20) which is articulated by its lower end (22) on the main arm (3). Equipment also includes a front link (21) articulated by its lower end (23) on the bucket, in a point located at a level higher than the articulation point (13) of the bucket (15) by relative to the arms (3). The two links (21) front and rear (20) are articulated with each other at their upper ends (25). So when the orientation of the bucket (15) varies relative to the arms (3), the parallelogram deformable including the links (20, 21) deforms.
- This deformation of the deformable parallelogram is caused by the action of a bucket cylinder (27).
- This bucket cylinder (27) has its rod (28) which is articulated on the bucket (15), substantially between the articulation point (23) of the front link (21) and the point hinge (13) of the bucket relative to the arms.
- the chamber (29) of the cylinder bucket (27) is connected in turn to the common point of articulation (25) of the two front (21) and rear (20) links.
- the work equipment comprises a connecting bar (30) which extends along the main arm (3), substantially from the area where the rear link is articulated (20), and up to the point of articulation (8) of the arm (3) relative to the chassis (5).
- the front end (31) of this connecting bar (30) is articulated on the link rear (20), at the point of articulation (32).
- the other end (33) of the connecting bar (30) is itself articulated substantially at the point of articulation (8) of the arm (3) relative to the chassis (5). More precisely, this end of this connecting bar is articulated on a cam as illustrated in FIG. 3.
- the end (33) of the connecting bar is articulated with respect to the cam (35) at the level of the branch (36) comprising a through opening (37).
- This cam (35) is mounted with a capacity of pivoting around a yoke (40) itself secured to the frame (5). The rotation of the cam (35) relative to the yoke (40) takes place around the through axis (41) the opening (41) provided for this purpose in the cam (35).
- the cam (35) has a curved surface (43) each point of which is at a different distance from the axis of rotation (41) of the cam.
- This curved surface (35) comes into contact with a lever (45) itself articulated relative to the yoke (40) about an axis of rotation (46).
- This lever has a groove (47) whose walls (48, 49) come from either side of the cam (35), to prevent the latter does not deviate.
- This groove (47) is crossed by a rod (50) connecting the two walls (48, 49).
- the curved surface (43) of the cam (35) comes into contact with this rod (50).
- This hydraulic remote control (52) is inserted in the circuit of hydraulic control illustrated in Figure 4. More specifically, this remote control hydraulic (52) is connected upstream to the main pressure source which is the pump (53). Downstream, this hydraulic remote control (52) is connected to a selector circuit (54), which ensures the selective connection between on the one hand, the distributor (55) of the bucket cylinder (27), and secondly, the outlet (56) of the hydraulic remote control (52), i.e. the output (57) of the control manipulator (58). More specifically, this control manipulator (58) has a pressure supply (59) from the main pump (53), and two outlet (57, 60) each corresponding to a direction of orientation of the bucket. The first one outlet (60) corresponds to the bucket lifting control, while the second outlet (57) corresponds to the bucket spill command.
- the circuit selector (54) transmits to the distributor (55) the pressure which is the most important between the control pressure of the manipulator (58) and the pressure delivered by the hydraulic remote control (52). It is this pressure that then acts on the distributor slide (61) which causes the cylinder to move bucket (27).
- the driver places his bucket (15) in such a way that it has its opening (16) directed towards the front, in order to fill the cup. It then acts on the manipulator (58) to cause the backward pivoting of the bucket (15).
- the pressure from the manipulator (58) is greater than the pressure from the hydraulic remote control (52), which is null since the hydraulic remote control is not activated.
- the bar link (30) moves, therefore causing the movement of the cam (35).
- the pressure from the T2 hydraulic remote control therefore exceeds that delivered by the manipulator (58), and it is this pressure which, via the circuit selector (54), acts on the distributor (55), to cause feeding the bucket cylinder (27) in the direction of an orientation of the latter forward, as shown in the upper part of Figure 2.
- the system automatically compensates for the inclination of the bucket to prevent the latter from spilling backwards, if it remains in the incline initial, corresponding to that of the lower part of Figure 2.
- the machine according to the invention has the essential advantage of allowing automatic correction of the inclination of the bucket, which is insensitive to the level of the control manipulator. This correction driver safety increases because the risk of falling backward material is eliminated.
