Bucket Cylinder For Zoomlion Middle Excavator ZE220ELC

Introduction

Defining Bucket Cylinder

A bucket cylinder is a specialized hydraulic cylinder that is mainly used to control the movement of the bucket in heavy-duty machinery such as excavators, backhoe excavators, and front-end loaders. Its primary function is to enable the bucket to lift, lower, and tilt, making it easier to handle various material handling tasks. In the hydraulic system, the bucket cylinder achieves precise control of the bucket by the pressure change of the hydraulic oil, allowing the operator to handle heavy loads efficiently and adapt to complex working environments and diversified job requirements.

Features of Bucket Cylinder

• High strength and durability: Typically made of high-strength steel or aluminum, it can withstand high pressure and heavy loads, adapt to harsh working environments, and designed with wear resistance and corrosion resistance, extending the service life.
• Efficient hydraulic operation: Utilizes hydraulic oil pressure to achieve smooth telescopic action, can quickly respond to control commands, provide powerful pushing and pulling forces, suitable for handling heavy loads and complex job tasks.
• Various types: Single-acting (hydraulic used only in one direction) or double-acting (hydraulic used in two directions) cylinders can be selected according to requirements to meet different operational needs. Some models are telescopic, allowing for greater extension without increasing external dimensions, suitable for applications with limited space.

Our product can perfectly replace these hydraulic cylinders.

Applications of Bucket Cylinder

Bucket cylinders are widely used in various industries, including:

Construction Equipment

Bucket cylinders are essential for excavators in digging, loading, and moving soil or rubble. In backhoe excavators, the bucket cylinder assists in both digging and lifting.

Agricultural Machinery

Used in front-end loaders for scooping, lifting, and transporting soil, hay, and other materials.

Excavators

The bucket cylinder achieves the digging action by allowing the bucket to penetrate the soil.

Loaders

In front-end loaders, they assist in lifting and tilting the cargo effectively.

Design Considerations and Standards

Carrying Capacity

The carrying capacity of the bucket cylinder is a crucial design consideration. It should be able to withstand the weight of the load and the force exerted during operation.

Sealing

Proper sealing is essential to prevent oil leaks and ensure efficient operation of the cylinder. High-quality piston seals and rod seals are required to prevent contamination of the hydraulic fluid and maintain the performance of the cylinder.

Durability

The bucket cylinder is designed to withstand harsh working environments, including exposure to dust, moisture, and extreme temperatures. Its construction must withstand the rigors of daily use to ensure longevity and reliable performance.

Safety

Safety is paramount when working with heavy machinery. The bucket cylinder must be designed to prevent accidents and minimize risk to the operator.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance is necessary to ensure that the bucket cylinder continues to perform optimally. Proper lubrication, inspection, and replacement of worn parts are essential for extending the life of the cylinder.

Sealing and Lubrication

The bucket cylinder utilizes various seals to prevent oil leaks, including piston seals and rod seals. These seals are made of wear-resistant materials such as polyurethane and nitrile rubber. The cylinder’s body and threaded end surfaces are finely finished to improve wear resistance. It is also necessary to add a suitable amount of hydraulic oil for lubrication regularly.

Preventive and Maintenance Measures

To ensure the optimal performance and life of the bucket cylinder, preventive and maintenance measures are necessary.

Installation

Proper installation is critical to the performance and safety of the bucket cylinder. It is recommended to use appropriate installation brackets to secure the cylinder and provide proper guidance during installation.

Lubrication

Proper lubrication is essential to ensure the smooth operation of the cylinder. It is important to lubricate the cylinder regularly with the recommended hydraulic oil to prevent wear and tear of the cylinder’s internal parts.

Seals Replacement

Piston seals and rod seals should be replaced regularly to prevent oil leaks and ensure efficient operation.

Safety Considerations and Environmental Factors

Safety is paramount when working with heavy machinery, including bucket cylinders. It is essential to follow safety guidelines to prevent accidents and minimize risks to the operator and the environment.

Fault Diagnosis and Troubleshooting

Fault diagnosis and troubleshooting are necessary to identify and resolve issues with the bucket cylinder. Common problems include oil leaks, cylinder drift, and reduced performance. It is essential to follow proper diagnostic and repair procedures to prevent further damage and ensure optimal performance.
