DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0039] A detailed description will be given below on technical solutions provided by the present disclosure in combination with FIG. 1 to FIG. 6c.

[0040] Please refer to FIG. 1. Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a land leveler which comprises a vehicle frame 4 and a swing frame 10. The swing frame 10 comprises a supporting beam assembly 1 and connecting parts. The supporting beam assembly 1 comprises multiple beam members, and the multiple beam members are connected sequentially at end parts, such that the multiple beam members form a closed shape. The connecting part is arranged at the connecting end part between two adjacent beam members. At least two connecting parts are provided. At least one connecting part is rotatably connected with the vehicle frame 4, and at least another connecting part is rotatably connected with a driving part.

[0041] With the supporting beam assembly 1 including three beams as an example, sequential connection at the end parts means that the end of each beam is connected with other beams, and the whole supporting beam assembly 1 is approximately a triangle.

[0042] In some embodiments, the beams of the supporting beam assembly 1 are constructed to be of the same strength. A driving part comprises an oil cylinder.

[0043] The structures of the connecting parts are identical or different. The connecting parts are used for realizing connection between the swing frame 10 and the vehicle frame 4 and between the swing frame 10 and the oil cylinder.

[0044] The top end of the supporting beam assembly 1 means a protruding position of the supporting beam assembly when the supporting beam assembly is taken as a whole. With a triangle structure as an example, the end part of the supporting beam assembly 1 refers to three vertices of a triangle structure.

[0045] Please refer to FIG. 2. In some embodiments, the connecting parts include a first connecting part 2 and a second connecting part 3, two first connecting parts are respectively arranged at two end parts of the supporting beam assembly 1. The second connecting part 3 is arranged at another top end of the supporting beam assembly 1.

[0046] The first connecting part 2 and the second connecting part 3 for example have different structures. The first connecting part 2 is constructed to be cylindrical. The second connecting part 3 comprises two hinged ears which are arranged at intervals.

[0047] An optional arrangement mode of the first connecting part 2 is as shown in FIG. 5a to FIG. 6c. FIG. 5a to FIG. 5c show some arrangement modes, while FIG. 6a to FIG. 6c show some other arrangement modes.

[0048] In the above technical solution, the structures of the connecting parts at two end parts of the swing frame 10 are identical, and are both cylindrical. The connecting part of the third end part is a hinged ear. The connecting relationship among the three connecting parts is specifically as follows: one of the cylindrical structure is rotatably connected with a connecting plate 41 on the vehicle frame 4, specifically with the connecting plate 41 on the front rack. Another cylindrical structure is rotatably connected with an oil cylinder. The hinged ear is rotatably connected with a beam 42 of the front rack. The front rack in its entirety, the swing frame 10 and the oil cylinder form a four-bar mechanism. Through changing a rotatably connecting position between the hinged ear and the beam 42 of the front rack, the pose of the swing frame 10 is adjusted, and further an operating condition of the land leveler is adjusted. As to the swing frame 10 provided in the above technical solution, when the swing frame 10 swings to its limit position, the structure of the swing frame 10 is subjected to a bending moment and a torque. Even if the operating performance of the land leveler is improved, the tonnage increases, and the width of the scraper knife and the load correspondingly increase, the bending resistance and torsional property of the structure of the swing frame 10 still satisfy operating requirements, so as to increase stability of the whole vehicle.

[0049] Refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 4. In some embodiments, the supporting beam assembly 1 comprises a first beam member 11, a second beam member 12 and a third beam member 13. A first end of a second beam member 12 is connected with a first end of the first beam member 11. A first end of a third beam member 13 is connected with a second end of the second beam member 12. A second end of third beam member 13 is connected with a second end of the first beam member 11.

[0050] The structures of the first beam member 11, the second beam member 12 and the third beam member 13 are approximately the same. Specifically, the structures of the first beam member 11 and the second beam member 12 are almost identical, while a hinged ear is arranged at the position at which the first beam member 11 is connected with the second beam member 12. A cylindrical structure is arranged at another two end parts of a triangle structure. Since the structure of the hinged ear is different from a cylindrical structure, the structure of the third beam member 13 is different from the structure of the first beam member 11 at the end. Specifically, no groove is arranged at the end part of the third beam member 13, while a groove is arranged at the end parts of the first beam member 11 and the second beam member 12, and the structure of the groove is corresponding to that of the hinged ear.

[0051] In some embodiments, the first beam member 11 is straight or bent. And/or, the second beam member 12 is straight or bent. And/or, the third beam member 13 is straight or bent. For example, the three beam members are all straight beams, or are all bent towards the inside of the supporting beam assembly 1. Or one or two of the beam members are straight beams, while the remaining beams are bent.

[0052] The shape of each beam of the supporting beam assembly 1 will be introduced below. The cross section of the first beam member 11 is rectangular, circular, I-shaped or U-shaped. And/or, the cross section of the second beam member 12 is rectangular, circular, I-shaped or U-shaped. And/or, the cross section of the third beam member 13 is rectangular, circular, I-shaped or U-shaped.

[0053] To continue with what is described above, each beam of the supporting beam assembly 1 is constructed to be of the same strength. Specifically, the first beam member 11, the second beam member 12 and the third beam member 13 are constructed to be of the same strength. The structure enables that the first beam member 11, the second beam member 12 and the third beam member 13 all bear well no matter the swing frame 10 is located at what kind of operating position.

[0054] Please refer to FIG. 4. In some embodiments, the first beam member 11 and the second beam member 12 have the same length.

[0055] Please refer to FIG. 4. In some embodiments, the first beam member 11 and the third beam member 13 have the same length.

[0056] Please refer to FIG. 4 and FIG. 5a, in some embodiments, the first beam member 11, the second beam member 12 and the third beam member 13 enclose a triangle with a gap 5 in the center.

[0057] The contour shape of the gap 5 is also approximately a triangle. The gap 5 of the triangle is beneficial for the driver to observe visual field of front wheels of the land leveler, and observe conditions of the front wheels, meanwhile, the driver does not need observe sideways, thereby reducing hidden dangers to personal safety of the driver during driving.

[0058] The supporting beam assembly 1 is approximately in a shape of an inverted triangle, and the gap 5 is also in a shape of an inverted triangle. The supporting beam assembly 1 bears the bending resistance and torsion resistance effects of the swing frame 10.

[0059] In some embodiments, the first beam member 11, the second beam member 12 and the third beam member 13 are welded. The welded supporting beam assembly 1 is convenient for processing and manufacturing, and under the premise that the bearing capability satisfies requirements, the size is small and the weight is light.

[0060] In some embodiments, the supporting beam assembly 1 is cast. The supporting beam assembly is cast in a whole, therefore, its structural strength is better, and the bearing capability is also better.

[0061] As to the above technical solution, through a topology optimal design, and by adopting a casting mode, a novel arrangement structure of the swing frame 10 of the land leveler is formed. The structure is not only light in weight, but also has strong bending stiffness and strength, thereby effectively solving the contradiction between structure weight and structure stiffness and strength, being beneficial for lightweight design of the structure of the swing frame 10 of the land leveler, being beneficial for reliability of the structure of the swing frame 10 of the land leveler, and improving operating safety and stability of the whole vehicle.

[0062] Please refer to FIG. 3. The swing frame 10 is arranged to be symmetrical to the vehicle frame 4, and generally two swing frames 10 are arranged. With a gazing direction of the driver as a reference, one swing frame is arranged at a left side of the sight line of the driver, while one swing frame is arranged at a right side of the sight line of the driver.

[0063] In some embodiments, two of the end parts of the swing frame 10 are rotatably connected with the vehicle frame 4. Please refer to FIG. 3, one of the cylindrical structures is rotatably connected with the connecting plate 41 on the front rack, another cylindrical structure is rotatably connected with an oil cylinder, and the hinged ear is rotatably connected with the beam 42 of the front rack. The front rack in its entirety, the swing frame 10 and the oil cylinder form a four-bar mechanism. Specifically, the connecting plate 41 on the front rack, the beam 42 of the front rack, the swing frame 10 and the oil cylinder form a four-bar mechanism. Through changing a rotatably connecting position between the hinged ear and the beam 42 of the front rack, the pose of the swing frame 10 is adjusted, and further an operating condition of the land leveler is adjusted.

[0064] In description of the present disclosure, it needs to the understood that, orientation or position relations denoted by the terms center, longitudinal, lateral, front, rear, left, right, vertical, horizontal, top, bottom, inner, outer and the like are orientation or position relations based on illustration in the figures, and are only intended to facilitate describing the present disclosure and simplifying description, instead of indicating or implying that the denoted devices or elements necessarily have specific orientations or are constructed and operated in specific orientations, and thus they should not be understood as a limitation to the protection scope of the present disclosure.
