Title:
VARIABLE CAPACITY BUCKET DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPH1088607
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To arbitrarily vary bucket capacity by a method wherein bucket capacity set by a bucket body and an inner bucket is varied by revolving the inner bucket.

When through extension and retraction of a hydraulic cylinder 8 operated by a manually-operated valve 78, an inner bucket 6 is revolved within a bucket body 4, a displacement detecting means 52 of a capacity detecting means 50 detects a relative position between the body 4 and the inner bucket 6 as angular displacement and outputs a detecting result to a capacity computing means 56. The computing means 56 computes bucket capacity and outputs a computing result to a capacity display means 56. The capacity is displayed by a display means 56. Further, a capacity command means 72 converts the position of the inner bucket 6 to the body 4 into revolution angle displacement, which is outputted to an actuator control means 74. The control means 74 retracts the cylinder 8 through an actuator operating means 76 so that an actually detecting angular displacement is adjusted to commanded angular displacement. This constitution varies capacity to an arbitrary value.
