Machine with a steering axle with axle tree bolsters and axle bodies having individual components
An industrial truck has a steering axle with two axle tree bolster systems located at a lateral distance from each other. Each system has an axle body with an axle shaft ( 1 ) and an axle tree bolster ( 2 ) located on the lower end of the axle shaft ( 1 ). The axle tree bolster ( 2 ) and the axle shaft ( 1 ) are individual components that are connected with each other. The axle tree bolster ( 2 ) is preferably detachably fastened to the axle shaft ( 1 ). The rotational position of the axle tree bolster ( 2 ) relative to the axle shaft ( 1 ) can be adjustable. Means can also be provided for the positive and/or non-positive transmission of a torque from the axle shaft ( 1 ) to the axle tree bolsters ( 2 ).
1. A machine, comprising:
a steering axle that comprises two axle tree bolster systems located at a spaced lateral distance from each other, each of which has an axle body with an axle shaft and an axle tree bolster located on a lower end of the axle shaft,
wherein the axle shaft is rotatable in a hydraulic cylinder and is downwardly extensible out of the cylinder,
wherein at least one wheel is rotationally mounted on each axle tree bolster,
wherein the axle tree bolster and the axle shaft of the axle tree bolster systems are individual components that are connectable with each other, and
wherein the axle shaft has a central boring on its end surface that is provided with a thread, which central boring is effectively connectable with a screw that fixes the axle tree bolster onto its associated axle shaft.
2. The machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the axle tree bolster is detachably fastened to its associated axle shaft.
3. The machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the rotational position of the axle tree bolster relative to its associated axle shaft is adjustable.
4. The machine as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the rotational position of the axle tree bolster relative to its associated axle shaft is adjustable.
5. The machine as claimed in claim 1 , including means for the positive and/or non-positive transmission of a torque from the axle shaft to its associated axle tree bolster, wherein the means includes one or more pins that form an interlock between the axle shaft and the axle tree bolster.
6. The machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the axle shaft is provided on its end surface facing the axle tree bolster with at least one eccentrically located pin that is engageable with the associated axle tree bolster.
7. The machine as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the axle shaft is provided on its end surface facing the axle tree bolster with at least one eccentrically located pin that is engageable with the associated axle tree bolster.
8. The machine as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the axle shaft is provided on its end surface facing the axle tree bolster with at least one eccentrically located pin that is engageable with the associated axle tree bolster.
9. A machine, comprising:
a steering axle that comprises two axle tree bolster systems located at a spaced lateral distance from each other, each of which has an axle body with an axle shaft and an axle tree bolster located on a lower end of the axle shaft; and
means for the positive and/or non-positive transmission of a torque from the axle shaft to its associated axle tree bolster, the means including one or more pins that form an interlock between the axle shaft and the axle tree bolster,
wherein the axle shaft is rotatable in a hydraulic cylinder and is downwardly extensible out of the cylinder,
wherein at least one wheel is rotationally mounted on each axle tree bolster,
wherein the axle tree bolster and the axle shaft of the axle tree bolster systems are individual components that are connectable with each other; and
wherein the axle shaft is provided on its end surface facing the axle tree bolster with at least one eccentrically located pin that is engageable with the associated axle tree bolster.
