Counterweight mounting device and working machine having the same
View Patent ↗A counterweight mounting device, which is installed on a frame supporting a counterweight, includes a first link of which a lower end is coupled to the frame so that the first link is rotatable about a first hinge shaft, a second link including a slot guide into which a second hinge shaft coupled to an upper end of the first link is inserted and in which the second hinge shaft slides, a hydraulic cylinder of which a lower end is coupled to the frame so that the hydraulic cylinder is rotatable about a cylinder rotation shaft and an upper end is coupled to the second hinge shaft and rotates the first link, and a connection member installed on an upper end of the second link and connected to the counterweight.
1. A counterweight mounting device, which is installed on a frame supporting a counterweight, comprising:
a first link of which a lower end is coupled to the frame so that the first link is rotatable about a first hinge shaft;
a second link including a slot guide into which a second hinge shaft coupled to an upper end of the first link is inserted and in which the second hinge shaft slides;
a hydraulic cylinder of which a lower end is coupled to the frame so that the hydraulic cylinder is rotatable about a cylinder rotation shaft and an upper end is coupled to the second hinge shaft and rotates the first link; and
a connection member installed on an upper end of the second link and connected to the counterweight.
2. The counterweight mounting device of claim 1 , further comprising:
a third link of which one end is rotatably coupled to the first link and the other end is rotatably coupled to a lower end of the second link; and
a fourth link of which one end is rotatably coupled to the frame and the other end is rotatably coupled to the lower end of the second link.
3. The counterweight mounting device of claim 2 , wherein a third hinge shaft coupled to the lower end of the second link is coupled to the third link and the fourth link.
4. The counterweight mounting device of claim 2 , wherein the first to fourth links are provided in pairs at left and right sides around the hydraulic cylinder.
5. The counterweight mounting device of claim 2 , further comprising a bracket which is fixedly coupled to the frame and to which the first link, the fourth link, and the hydraulic cylinder are rotatably coupled.
6. The counterweight mounting device of claim 1 , wherein an upper end of the hydraulic cylinder is coupled to a center of the second hinge shaft.
7. The counterweight mounting device of claim 1 , wherein the connection member is provided as a chain, a rope, or a combination thereof having a predetermined length.
8. A working machine comprising the counterweight mounting device of claim 1 .
9. The working machine of claim 8 , wherein the frame is provided on an upper rotation body of an excavator.
