Description
Improved Llft for Brake Drums and Hubs
The invention relates to a brake drum/hub assembly handling apparatus for use in removing a brake drum/hub assembly from a vehicle or installing such an assembly in a vehicle, for example after it has been removed for repair purposes. The invention Is particularly applicable to apparatus for use with the brake drum/hub assemblies of commercial vehicles such as lorries where the removal of the need for manual handling is particularly advantageous.
The brake drum/hub assembles of commercial vehicles such as tractor units and trailers often need to be removed for repair purposes, either in connection with the repair of the hub or drum assembly Itself or the repair of some component of the vehicle which is not accessible for repair purposes until the drum/hub assembly has been removed. Drum/hub assemblies of vehicles in general need to be removed for repair purposes but this is particularly common in commercial vehicles because the
latter are subJect to heavy use conditions and because applicable safety standards are higher.
Removal of brake drum/hub assemblies is a long standing problem due essentially to the large weight of the assemblies and their relative inaccessibility. For many years, such assemblies have been removed and instal led manually. In so doing, two fitters crouch one either side of the assembly, taking the bulk and weight of the assembly between them. In this way, the assembly Is withdrawn from Its mounting and gradually lowered to the
floor. In Installing an assembly, the large weight of the assembly must first be lifted by two fitters crouching In a similar position but here there Is the additional awkwardness of needing to brlng the assembly
In to register with the vehicle axle shaft with a reasonable degree of accuracy before the assembly can be mounted to the shaft.A typical brake drum/hub assembly has a weight between 30 kilograms and 140 kilograms, in some cases even more. This is a particularly large weight for manhandling between two fitters in a crouched position and back complaints as well as accidental inJury are common occurrences. The task Is made more difficult
In practice because when proximate the vehicle axle, access Is difficult due to the closeness of adJacent vehicle body parts such as mudguards and wheel arch surrounds.
A normal garage environment will usually provide that a trolley Jack and wheel trolley will be avallable, such apparatus being used In connection with wheel brake drum/hub assembly removal first to raise the vehicle above the ground and secondly to take the weight of a wheel and assist Its removal . These apparatus can be used to assist In the removal of a wheel drum/hub assembly but in practice are largely unsatisfactory. A trolley jack Is provided with a Jack head designed for engagement with such structural parts of a vehicle as chassis girders and is Ill-equ-ipped to receive and bear the cylindrical surface of a brake drum/hub assembly.
Slm-ilar disadvantages apply to wheel trollies. In both cases, of course, there Is the additional disadvantage that removal of a brake drum/hub assembly requires an awkward extractlon operatlon along a horizontal axis to remove the assembly from the vehicle axle and at the same time support a relatively large load.
According to the Invention, a brake drum/hub assembly handling apparatus for use in removing a brake drum/hub assembly from the vehicle or installing such an assembly therein comprises a carriage having ground-engaging means by which the carriage can be displaced upon the ground, a support member upstanding from the carriage, arm means supported by said support member, a drum hub assembly
lift member such as a plate provided upon said arm means such that said member plate and a drum/hub assembly can be brought together whilst the vehicle and said apparatus are spaced apart, the arm means preferably being displaceable, eg by power lift means of the apparatus between a relatively low positlon and a relatively elevated position to account for variations in the elevation at which a mounted drum/hub assembly may be disposed or at which an unmounted such assembly may require Installation In a vehicle, the lift member or plate being formed to receive one or more of the studs of a vehicle brake drum/hub assembly so as to carry the weight thereof upon said arm means and being so secured to the arm means that when a drum/hub assembly Is carried by the arm means upon Its stud(s) and nut means threaded over the latter, the assembly notwithstanding the elevation of said arm means has Its cyllndrical axis substantially horizontal and Is prevented from displacement such as to vary said horizontallty.
In a particular embodiment of the Invention, a brake drum/hub assembly comprises a carriage provided with ground-engaging means by which the carriage can be moved relative to the ground, a support member secured to the carriage and upstanding therefrom, arm means supported pivotally by said support member and having a drum/hub assembly I I ft plate secured thereto at a polnt remote from the point of pivotal support, and power lift means active upon said arm means to cause raising and lowerlng thereof, the lift plate having a planar portion formed to receive one or more of the studs of a wheel brake drum/hub assembly so as to carry the weight thereof and being so secured to the arm means that when a drum/hub assembly Is carried by said I Ift plate upon its stud(s) and nut means threaded over the latter, the drum/hub assembly has Its cylindrical axis substantial ly horizontal and Is substantially prevented from displacement such as to vary said horizontality, the apparatus being such that said planar portion has a vertical disposition which Is malntained by the apparatus notwithstanding the elevation of the arm means by operation of said power lift means.
In practice, of course, the carriage will normally be wheeled, a preferred carriage having ground-engaging wheels mounted thereto above the lowermost surface of the carriage so that some of the depth of said wheels is above such surface whereby the height of the centre of gravity of the apparatus Is minimized.
The power lift means will conveniently be a hydraulic ram, typically a single stage hand operated ram, but may be a machine screw.
The support member will conveniently comprise a tubular metallic pillar originating at the carriage. An elongate member secured to the carriage and upstanding therefrom
is preferably provided to form a plinth for the powered
lift means. Such elongate member will in general be placed so as additionally to act'to reinforce the support member.
The lift plate Is conveniently formed to receive one or more of the wheel studs by the provision of one or more stud-receiving slots or orifices. It Is thought that the provision of orifices will be preferable In the interests of security of carriage of the wheel drum/hub assembly by the apparatus of the Invention. A plurality of orifices spaced apart on a pitch circle so as to be registerable with the same plurality of studs of a wheel brake/hub assembly Is preferred.
The arm means wiil convenlently comprise a pair of cooperable Jibs.
For example, first and second Jlbs may be pivoted to the support member respectively at upper and lower positlons thereon, a member Including said lift plate bridging the ends of the jibs remote from the support member and being pivoted to each.
In a second of Its aspects, the Invention provides a method of removing a wheel brake drum/hub assembly from a vehicle wheel or of Installing such an assembly therein which method comprises brlnging a lift plate and the assembly together so that one or more studs of the assembly are received in one or more corresponding apertures provided In said lift plate, threading a securement element upon the threads of one or more of said studs received in such an aperture to secure the lift plate and said assembly together, said lift plate being secured to arm means of lift apparatus Including a carriage, ground-engaging means secured to the carriage to enable the apparatus to be moved upon the ground, a support member rising from said carriage and having said arm means secured thereto for vertical displacement, and power lift means acting on said arm means to effect such displacement, and displacing the carriage upon the ground so as to withdraw a mounted assembly from the vehicle or mount an unmounted assembly to the vehicle.
The following description of a preferred embodiment is
Intended to illustrate the Invention, by way of example only, reference being made to the accompanying drawings
in which:
Figure 1 is a side view of the apparatus;
Figure 2 is a further side view of the apparatus, similar to Figure 1 but showing the lift assembly In a relatively de-elevated position;
Figure 3 is a view similar to Figure 2 but showing the
lift assembly In a relatively elevated position;
Figure 4 is a plan view of the apparatus;
Figure 5 is an exploded view of the lift assembly;
Figure 6 is a view of part of the apparatus shown in
Figure 1, on an enlarged scale, showing In more detail the means adopted for securlng the ram to the lift assembly;
Figure 7 is a perspective view of the structure of the end of the lift assembly; and
Figure 8 shows the apparatus of Figure 1 carrying a brake drum/hub assembly.
The apparatus shown In the drawings comprises a carriage 1 comprising two side members 2 secured together by a cross-member 3. A further cross-member Intermediate the ends of the side members 2 may be provided but Is not shown In the drawings.
A plate 4 also bridges across the space between side members 2, plate 4 overlapping beyond each side member as most clearly shown in Figure 4. Plate 4 mounts to its undersurface a pair of wheels 5 one at either side of the apparatus. Two further wheels 6 are also provided, one at each of the two remote ends of side members 2. Each wheel 6 Is mounted between a palr of plates 7 welded to the side members 2. A socket 8 Is welded to plate 4 midway between wheels 5. Socket 8 is In the form of a steel plate formed to provide a cavity open at the top and one side.A steel rectangular cross sectioned upright pillar 9 is received in socket 8, a pin 10 penetrating apertures provided In both the socket and the pillar and In register with the base of the pillar seated
In the socket. Pln 10 Is of a form well known in the art and, briefly, comprises a steel shank, a flat head and a tip provided with a bore. A retaining pin is received through the bore and sandwiches a washer between the pin and the adJacent surface of socket 8.
The upper part of pillar 9 is apertured to receive similar pins which combine with similar cllps to retain the two-arms of a double jib assembly pivoted to the pillar 9 and serving as the lift assembly previously referred to. Each arm comprises two elongate steel strips 11, 12 which sandwich the pillar 9 between them.
At the remote ends of each arm of the lift assembly, a short length 13 of rectangular cross-sectloned tubular steel Is sandwiched between the steel strips 11, 12 and secured In position by pins and cllps of the kind already referred to, the arms of the double Jib assembly and the
length of tubular steel being pivotal relative to each other.
A lift plate 14 is welded by its flanges 14a and 14b to the length 13 of steel square cross section tube, a pendant portion of plate 14 being provided with a pair of apertures spaced apart on a pitched circle, as best shown
in Figure 7.
Carriage 1 also mounts a single stage hand operated hydraulic ram 16, the latter seating upon a plinth formed by an upright steel tubular member 16 welded to the carriage 1 so as to form a forward extremity of the socket 8. Plinth 16 in this way engages pillar 9 to serve an additional relnforcement purpose by resisting the pulllng moment applled to pillar 9.
Ram 15 is of conventional telescopic form, the foot 17 of the ram seating upon pilnth 16. The telescoped shank of the ram Is received between the paired strips 11, 12 constituting each arm of the double jib. The upper telescoped component of the ram shank has a lock plate 20 secured thereto. Lock plate 20 has a semi-circular cut out 22 for receiving the shank of the lowermost pin of the pair of pins which secure the palr of side plates 19 pivotally to the double Jlb arms at opposed slides thereof. A complementary locking plate 21 has such shank received therethrough, a pin 25 passing through small apertures In each locking plate to secure the two locking plates together by means of an appropriate cllp such as a circlip.
A handle 26 has a pivotal attachment to pillar 9 In common with the strip pair 11, 12 of the lowermost arm of the double Jib assembly.
In typical use, the apparatus shown in the drawings may be disposed as represented In Figure 2 at the start of operatlons. Manual pumping applied to the ram applies a raising force to the lowermost pair of arms of the jib assembly causing pivoting at the pillar 9. As the lift assembly rlses, the lifting plate 14 remains in an essentlally vertical disposition even when raised considerably, for example to the elevation represented in
Figure 3. When the appropriate elevation has been reached, the apparatus is wheeled in the direction shown by the arrow A In Figure 3, by manual force applied using handle 26, until the plate 14 and wheel drum/hub assembly are brought together. The assembly is then rotated until two of Its pins are In register with the orifices in the plate.The apparatus Is then wheeled slightly further forward until the pins are received In the orifices.
Nuts such as the previously removed wheel nuts of the vehicle wheel are then threaded over the wheel studs and tightened with a spanner. The apparatus is then wlthdrawn manually brlnging the wheel drum/hub assembly with it. For reasons of convenience and safety, the ram
Is then operated to lower the wheel drum/hub assembly to ground level, as represented by Figure 2. After conducting a repair operation, re-lnstallatlon of the brake drum/hub assembly Is, of course, the reverse of the above described operations.In this particular connection, it will be recognized that re-installation Is
In many senses conventionally a more difficult task than drum/hub removal since the weight and bulk of the assembly needs to be carried, according to conventional practices, by two fitters whilst the assembly is finally manipulated in an enclosed space In order to bring the axle into register with the assembly. This particular difficulty is completely avoided by the apparatus according to the invention since flne adjustments in elevation can easily be accomplished by operation of the ram 15 and, when achieved, the drum/hub assembly simply re-lnstalled by displacing the apparatus of the invention upon the ground.Removal of the nuts used to secure the drum/hub assembly to the plate 14 then enables the apparatus to be removed to allow for access to other parts of the vehicle to complete repair work or for removal of the vehicle from the repair area.
It will be appreciated that the apparatus of the
Invention enables removal and re-lnstallatlon to be carrled out at a range of elevation to take into account the likelihood that a vehicle being subJect to repair may be upon an elevated repair ramp. Whatever elevation, a drum/hub assembly cart led by the apparatus of the
Invention Is maintained with the axis of its cyllndrical drum component essentlally horizontal. Not only Is this a practical requirement in removal and installatlon operatlons but, of course, malntalned positional stability of the assembly Is important to the stability and security of the apparatus.In conventional cranetype lifting apparatus, the load is not carried in the same way so that upon removal from an axle, assuming this could be done using such apparatus, the drum/hub assembly would reposition itself, possibly violently, according to
its centre of gravity, such movement being likely to result In impaired stability to the load-carrying apparatus as well as causing a hazard to operatives due to the amplitude of swinging of the assembly. Re installatlon would then mean that registration of the assembly with the axle would need to be accomplished with considerable operative Intervention thus giving rise to many of the long-standing dl sadvantages already associated with conventional practices.
The apparatus of the invention can easily be partially dissassembled and In such condition can readily be stowed
In a car bOOt for transport purposes. For example, the form of the apparatus shown in the'drawings and described in the foregolng descriptlon can readily be dissassembled partlally by removing pin 10 so that the pillar 9 and attached lift assembly come away from the carriage 1, the two separate components then being easily manhandled, eg
into a car boot. The varlous other pins referred to may equally easily be removed should further or alternative dissassembly be desired.It will, of course, be recognized that the sub-assembly comprlsed of pillar 9 and attached lift assembly can easily be mounted to an alternative form of chassis with little or no requirement for mod I f I cation-of either. For example, the subassembly can be mounted to bases represented by various pieces of equipment commonly found in garage environments, such as a wheel trolley.
The apparatus in any of Its forms may, of course, be used to lift and handle other Items having studs or similar elements by means of which securement thereto can - be
achieved, eg wheel hubslfrom which the brake drum has already been removed, hub/drum/wheel assemblies in which a stud(s) normally present or a substitute(s) provided for the purpose is used for securement to the apparatus of the invention.
The invention as described earlier wlthout reference to the drawings may Include any one or more features of the invention as descrlbed with reference to the drawings or in my Patent Application No 86 23520.
