Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an overspeed automatic braking system for a mining endless rope winch. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, the most common braking method for mining endless rope winches is claw braking, which is a claw brake block made of cast iron or other materials. When the wire rope breaks, the brake block presses against the transport track sleepers, and the winch stops running through rigid resistance; another relatively new braking method is caliper-type hydraulic rail-holding brake, which is based on a combined symmetrical brake caliper structure design. Through a hydraulic device, the brake caliper is controlled to hold the rail, and the friction between the brake caliper and the rail generates braking force to stop the vehicle from moving forward.

[0003] The above two braking methods have their own advantages and disadvantages due to their different design principles: the claw braking method is simple and reliable, but the triggering method is defective and misoperation often occurs, that is, the brake should be triggered, but it is not triggered, and the braking effect is lost; the hydraulic rail-holding braking method improves the triggering method and generally does not cause misoperation, but the rail-holding braking method often fails to stop the vehicle under large tonnage and high-speed conditions, resulting in brake failure. Summary of the invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is how to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art and provide an overspeed automatic braking system for a mining endless rope winch.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the overspeed automatic braking system of the mine endless rope winch includes a braking mechanism, which includes two claws. The two claws are located between the two axles under the matching winch car, and the outer ends of the two claws are respectively hinged on the frame of the matching winch. It is characterized in that: it includes a bidirectional centrifugal overspeed clutch brake trigger device, and the bidirectional centrifugal overspeed clutch brake trigger device includes a large sprocket, a chain, a rotating shaft, a static plate, a dynamic plate and a shell. The large sprocket is fixed to the inner side of a wheel of the matching winch, and the axis center line of the large sprocket coincides with the axis center line of the corresponding wheel. The shell is fixed on the frame of the matching winch, and the rotating shaft is fixed to the center of the shell through two bearings, and the small sprocket, static plate and dynamic plate are sleeved on the rotating shaft. On the upper part, the small sprocket and the rotating shaft are respectively provided with relative keyways, and keys are arranged in the keyways to achieve fixation. The moving plate is connected to the rotating shaft by a sliding key. The moving plate can rotate with the rotating shaft and can slide axially on the rotating shaft. The static plate is fixed on the rotating shaft by a thrust bearing and cannot slide axially, but can rotate around the rotating shaft. A spiral spring and a thrust bearing are also sleeved on the rotating shaft between the static plate and the moving plate. Relative friction contact rings are also respectively arranged on the inner sides of the static plate and the moving plate. When the equipped winch exceeds the design vehicle speed, the rotating speed of the moving plate exceeds the corresponding rotating speed, and the centrifugal force of the friction contact ring on the moving plate generates a component force sufficient to overcome the elastic force of the spiral spring. The friction contact rings of the static plate and the moving plate are engaged with each other, and the moving plate drives the static plate to rotate.

[0006] A pulley disc is hinged in the middle of the frame equipped with the winch, and a vertical shaft is fixedly connected to the center of the pulley disc. The lower end of the vertical shaft is connected to the middle of a horizontal supporting rod, and the two sides of the horizontal supporting rod respectively support the clamping claws.

[0007] Rope grooves are provided on the outer circumferences of the static plate and the pulley plate, and a steel wire rope and a fixed pulley are provided between the static plate and the pulley plate. One end of the steel wire rope is fixedly connected to a point on the outer edge of the static plate, and the other end is fixed to the outer edge of the pulley plate after crossing part of the rope grooves of the fixed pulley and the pulley plate. The pulley plate is equipped with a torsion spring or a return spring, which tightens the steel wire rope and makes the center extension line of the steel wire rope connected to the outer edge of the static plate pass through a point on the axis line of the static plate.

[0008] During use, when the wire rope of the endless rope winch breaks, the winch pulled by the wire rope slips on the slope. When the speed reaches the allowable speed limit, after the static disc and the dynamic disc are combined, the static disc can wrap the wire rope in its rope groove regardless of whether it rotates forward or reverse, pulling the wire rope, driving the pulley plate and the horizontal support rod to deflect, releasing the claw, which falls under the action of gravity and is inserted into the ground between the tracks or between the sleepers, thereby achieving the purpose of timely braking.

[0009] With this design, the bidirectional centrifugal overspeed clutch brake trigger device has a purely mechanical structure, does not require electronic components, does not require power supply, has high reliability, is not afraid of interference, and can basically achieve maintenance-free operation. It has very obvious advantages in the harsh environment of underground coal mines and is worthy of large-scale promotion and application in coal mines.

[0010] The main components are made of stainless steel, which is wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant, has strong impact resistance, and is not easy to deform. It is suitable for harsh transportation environments with ups and downs.

[0011] As an optimization, sleeves are respectively provided on the horizontal support rods on both sides of the vertical axis. The sleeves are fixed on the horizontal support rods through bearings and can rotate around the horizontal support rods. The horizontal support rods support the claws through the sleeves. With this design, the resistance of the horizontal support rods is small when they rotate, and the triggering is more sensitive.

[0012] The overspeed automatic brake system of the mine-used endless rope winch of the present invention is suitable for common rail transportation in coal mines, has high braking safety, is easy to use, has high reliability, and can be used on a large scale in coal mines.
