[0028] As Figure 3 shown, the double-rod tensioning mechanism includes a frame 1, a moving beam 3, a pushing cylinder 6, and a double-rod tensioning device 7. Two parallel tracks 2 are arranged on the frame 1. Sliders 4 adapted to the tracks 2 are arranged at the bottom of the moving beam 3. A cylinder seat 5 is fixedly arranged at the outer end of the frame 1. The pushing cylinder 6 is fixed to the cylinder seat 5. The piston rod of the pushing cylinder 6 is connected to the moving beam 3 and pushes and pulls the moving beam 3 to slide along the track 2. A number of double-rod tensioning devices 7 are distributed on the moving beam 3. Each double-rod tensioning device 7 is provided with a tensioning and locking hole adapted to be docked with two adjacent tension rods. As Figure 6-7, the double-rope tensioning device 7 includes: a pressure block, a rear plate 701, a front plate 702, a connecting plate 703, an integral piston rod 704, a double connecting plate 705, a pressure sensor 706, a pull rod 707, a motor 708, a connecting wrench sleeve 709, a plug cylinder 710, a connector 711, and a displacement sensor 712.

The pressure block is arranged at the docking end face of the double-rope tensioning device 7. The connecting wrench sleeve 709 includes a cylinder body, external teeth, fins, grooves, and one-way teeth. External teeth are arranged in the middle of the outer cylinder of the cylinder body. Fins are arranged at the front end of the cylinder body. Preferably, two fins are symmetrically arranged. The edge of the fin transitions to the groove for introducing the nut into the groove of the wrench. The groove opening is lower than the fin. One-way teeth are arranged at the rear end of the cylinder body. The connecting wrench sleeve 709 is used to introduce the tension rod to realize the screwing of the nut. Corresponding to each connecting wrench sleeve 709, a gearbox and a motor 708 are also provided on the front plate 702. The drive shaft of the motor 708 is connected with a gear, and the gear meshes with the external teeth of the connecting wrench sleeve 709. Two rectangular cavities are arranged between the rear plate 701 and the front plate 702. The connector 711 with a rectangular shape is arranged in the cavity. The inner hole of the connector 711 for docking the tension rod is provided. An insertion plate groove is also provided in the inner hole of the connector 711. A telescopic insertion plate is arranged in the insertion plate groove. A locking hole for locking the tension rod is arranged in the telescopic insertion plate.

One end of the pull rod 707 is fixed to the connector 711. The tension cylinder is a cylinder body fixed to the rear plate 701. An integral piston rod 704 is arranged in the cylinder body. Preferably, two tension cylinders are symmetrically arranged. The pull rod 707 is located at the centering position between two adjacent tension cylinders. Two adjacent tension cylinders act on the pull rod 707 together. Specifically, the rod ends of two adjacent tension cylinders are connected by the double connecting plate 705. A thin rod is arranged at the end of the pull rod 707. The end of the thin rod passes through the double connecting plate 705 and the pressure sensor 706 and is locked by a nut. The thrust of the tension cylinder acts on the double connecting plate 705, the pressure sensor 706, and the pull rod 707 in sequence, causing the connector 711 to generate displacement. The displacement sensor 712 is fixedly arranged on the rear plate 701. The measuring rod end of the displacement sensor 712 is connected to the connector 711.

[0029] As Figure 5 shown, the four-rope tensioning mechanism includes a frame two 14, a moving beam two 15, a pushing cylinder two 17, and four double-rope tensioning devices 18. Two parallel tracks are arranged on the frame two 14. Sliders adapted to the tracks 2 are arranged at the bottom of the moving beam two 15. A cylinder seat two 16 is fixedly arranged at the outer end of the frame two 14. The pushing cylinder two 17 is fixed to the cylinder seat two 16. The piston rod of the pushing cylinder two 17 is connected to the moving beam two 15 and pushes and pulls the moving beam two 15 to slide along the track 2. A number of four-rope tensioning devices 18 are distributed on the moving beam two 15. Each four-rope tensioning device 18 is provided with a tensioning and locking hole passage adapted to dock with four tension rods. AsFigure 8-9 , the four tensioning devices 18 include a base 1801, symmetrically arranged support plate frames, a variable distance mechanism 1802, a lower tensioning module 1803 and an upper tensioning module 1804, and a pin shaft 1805. The base 1801 is provided with a shaft hole for installation and fixation with the main machine. Two support plate frames are vertically and symmetrically arranged on the base 1801. The variable distance mechanism 1802 is respectively connected and arranged on the inner sides of the two support plate frames. The support plate frames are provided with oil channels communicating with an external oil source. For example, Figure 12 , the variable distance mechanism 1802 includes a cylinder block with a rectangular shape. The cylinder block is provided with a vertical hole and an inner cavity of the cylinder. The inner cavity of the cylinder is provided with an upper piston rod and a lower piston rod integrated with a piston and a rod. The rod end is provided with an internal thread. The rod of the upper piston rod extends upward, and the rod of the lower piston rod extends downward. The rod hole and the piston shaft are sealed, separating the inner cavity of the cylinder into an upper rod chamber, a lower rod chamber, and a rodless chamber. Among them, the rodless chamber is provided with a hole for connecting to the oil channel of the support plate frame, and the upper rod chamber and the lower rod chamber merge and pass through the oil channel connecting to the support plate frame.

[0030] For example, Figure 10 , Figure 11 , the lower tensioning module 1803 includes: a front box plate, a pressing block, a connecting wrench sleeve two 1803-2, a gear box, a side plate, a middle plate, a rear cylinder plate, a tensioning cylinder body 1803-4, a fixing block 1803-11, a lifting cylinder 1803-7, a link head two 1803-6, a lifting cylinder bracket, a pull rod two 1803-5, a pressing plate 1803-9, a force sensor, a pull cylinder piston rod 1803-8, a pull cylinder guide sleeve, a pull cylinder gland, a motor two 1803-3, a gear 1803-1, a sealing shaft sleeve, and a displacement sensor. Among them, the connecting wrench sleeve two 1803-2 is used to introduce a tensioning rod to realize the screwing of the nut.

[0031] Four adjacent tensioning rods are set for the mold, and the lower tensioning module 1803 is provided with two groups of tensioning and locking mechanisms adapted to it. For example, Figure 11As shown in the tensioning and locking mechanism of the cross-section, a gear 1803-1 is arranged inside the gearbox and fixed by a front panel of the box. The gearbox and the front panel of the box are provided with coaxial holes, and a connecting wrench sleeve two 1803-2 is installed in the holes. A pressure block is arranged on the butting end face of the tensioning and locking mechanism, and the external teeth are meshed with the gear 1803-1. A motor two 1803-3 is fixedly arranged outside the gearbox, and the driving shaft of the motor two 1803-3 extends into the gearbox to drive the connecting gear 1803-1. The above constitutes a wrench sleeve rotary driver. A tensioning cylinder is connected behind the gearbox. The tensioning cylinder is fixedly connected through two side plates and a middle plate. A rectangular cavity is arranged between the side plates and the middle plate. A connector two 1803-6 with a rectangular shape is arranged in the cavity. The connector two 1803-6 is provided with an inner hole for butting the tensioning rod end. An insertion plate groove is also arranged in the inner hole of the connector two 1803-6. A telescopic insertion plate is arranged in the insertion plate groove, and a locking hole for locking the tensioning rod is arranged in the telescopic insertion plate. A lifting cylinder bracket is fixedly arranged outside the connector two 1803-6, and a lifting cylinder 1803-7 is fixedly arranged on the lifting cylinder bracket. The rod end of the lifting cylinder 1803-7 is connected to drive the telescopic insertion plate. A second one-way tooth is arranged at the entrance end of the inner hole of the connector two 1803-6, and the second one-way tooth is correspondingly clamped with the one-way tooth to realize the rotation direction limitation of the connecting wrench sleeve two 1803-2. As Figure 11 , a piston and a rod-integrated tensioning cylinder piston rod 1803-8 are arranged in the cylinder inner cavity of the tensioning cylinder body 1803-4. The tensioning cylinder piston rod 1803-8 is provided with a through inner hole. A tensioning cylinder guide sleeve is sleeved on the rod end of the tensioning cylinder piston rod 1803-8. The tensioning cylinder gland is connected to the tensioning cylinder body 1803-4 by screws to fix the tensioning cylinder guide sleeve. The tensioning cylinder body 1803-4 is also provided with a hole for the tensioning rod two 1803-5 to pass through, and a sealing shaft sleeve is arranged at the hole end. The cylinder rear plate is connected and fixed to the sealing shaft sleeve by screws. A boss is arranged in the middle section of the tensioning rod two 1803-5. One end of the tensioning rod two 1803-5 is connected to the connector two 1803-6, and the other end passes through the inner hole of the tensioning cylinder piston rod 1803-8 and then a pressure plate 1803-9 and a force sensor 1803-10 are installed, and the end is fixed by screwing a nut. Two adjacent tensioning and locking mechanisms share parts: the gearbox, the front panel of the box, the cylinder rear plate, and the tensioning cylinder body 1803-4. Two displacement sensors are fixedly arranged on the middle plate. The measuring rods of the two displacement sensors are respectively connected to the connector two 1803-6 of the two tensioning and locking mechanisms. The displacement sensors are used to measure the axial telescopic displacement of the connector two 1803-6. A fixed block 1803-11 is fixedly arranged on the outer side of the side plate. The fixed block 1803-11 is provided with a vertical through hole adapted to the vertical hole, and the fixed block 1803-11 is provided with a connecting hole for connecting the lower piston rod.

[0032] The lower tensioning module 1803 and the upper tensioning module 1804 have the same structural composition. As Figure 8, the difference lies in the different distances between the two sets of tensioning and locking mechanisms, and the distance can be adaptively designed according to the actual working conditions; the lower tensioning module 1803 and the upper tensioning module 1804 are respectively connected below and above the variable distance mechanism 1802. The lower piston rod of the variable distance mechanism 1802 is fixedly connected to the fixed block of the lower tensioning module 1803, and the upper piston rod of the variable distance mechanism 1802 is fixedly connected to the fixed block of the upper tensioning module 1804. The pin shaft 1805 passes through the vertical through holes of the upper tensioning module fixed block, the vertical holes of the variable distance mechanism, and the vertical through holes of the lower tensioning module fixed block in sequence to realize variable distance vertical guidance. The variable distance mechanism 1802 drives the upper and lower piston rods to expand and contract to adjust the size of the steel bar spacing, thereby realizing the variable distance function.

[0033] Such as Figure 4 , the distance between adjacent double tensioning devices 7 can be adjusted. A fixed rod hole is provided between the rear plate 701 and the front plate 702 and a fixed rod is passed through. The rod head of the fixed rod is exposed and is pressed and fixed by the lower pressing plate 8 and the upper pressing plate 9 fixed on the moving beam 1. A link plate 10 is connected between the fixed rods of adjacent double tensioning devices 7. Connecting holes adapted to pass through the fixed rods are provided at both ends of the link plate 10. The two hole distances of the link plate 10 can be set as required, and the distance between adjacent double tensioning devices 7 can be adjusted by replacing the link plate 10 with different hole distances. Such as Figure 5 , the same fixed rods, lower pressing plates, upper pressing plates, and connecting plates as described above are also provided between the four tensioning devices 18, and the distance adjustment method is the same.

[0034] The working mode is:

[0035] The working steps are divided into mold preparation, distance adjustment, docking, tensioning, and locking.

[0036] Mold preparation, such as Figure 1-2 , the mold 11 is transported to the working station, the lifting cylinder 13 lifts the mold 11 to align with the double tensioning devices 7 and the four tensioning devices 18 in height, so that the axes of the tensioning and locking holes and the tensioning rods are at the same height. The double tensioning mechanism works, and the first pushing cylinder 6 pushes the moving beam 1 to slide along the track 2, so that a number of double tensioning devices 7 distributed on the moving beam 1 are close to the left end of the mold 11; the four tensioning mechanisms also work at the same time, and the second pushing cylinder 17 pushes the moving beam 2 to slide along the track 2, so that a number of four tensioning devices 18 distributed on the moving beam 2 are close to the right end of the mold 11.

[0037] Distance adjustment, such as Figure 1-5, according to the specifications of the mold and / or the sleeper within the mold, determine the sleeper spacing of the corresponding specifications. Correspondingly, adjust the adjacent spacing of the double tensioning devices 7 and the adjacent spacing of the four tensioning devices 18. The adjustment method is to remove or replace the pressed lower platen 8 and upper platen 9, and after replacing the corresponding dimension chain plate 10, adjust the spacing between adjacent double tensioning devices 7 or adjacent four tensioning devices 18, and then reinstall the lower platen 8, upper platen 9, and chain plate 10 to achieve the adjustment of the horizontal spacing.

[0038] The adjustment of the steel bar spacing is mainly for the steel bar spacing of the sleeper, and automatically adjusts the vertical spacing between the lower tensioning module 1803 and the upper tensioning module 1804 of the four tensioning devices 18. For example Figure 5 , Figure 8-12 , according to the specifications of the mold and / or the sleeper within the mold, determine the vertical spacing between the upper and lower rods of the four adjacent tension rods of the mold. The variable-spacing mechanism 1802 works to drive the lower tensioning module 1803 and / or the upper tensioning module 1804 to perform lifting displacement respectively, so that the spacing between them changes to correspond to the four adjacent tension rods at the tensioning end of the mold.

[0039] Docking, for example Figure 1-11 , the double tensioning mechanism works. The first push cylinder 6 pushes the first moving beam 3 to slide along the track 2, so that a number of double tensioning devices 7 arranged on the first moving beam 3 approach the left end of the mold 11, and the two tension rods are respectively docked into the corresponding connecting wrench sleeves 709. The lifting and inserting plate cylinder 710 is connected to drive the telescopic inserting plate to clamp the tension rod to complete the docking, so that the connector 711 forms an integral body with the tension rod and is relatively fixed, and the connecting wrench sleeve 709 clamps the locking nut; the four tensioning mechanisms also work at the same time. The second push cylinder 17 pushes the second moving beam 15 to slide along the track 2, so that a number of four tensioning devices 18 arranged on the second moving beam 15 approach the right end of the mold 11, and the four tension rods are respectively docked into the second connecting wrench sleeve 1803-2. The lifting cylinder 1803-7 is connected to drive the telescopic inserting plate to clamp the tension rod to complete the docking, and the second connecting wrench sleeve 1803-2 clamps the locking nut.

[0040] Tensioning, for example Figure 1-11, the pressure blocks of the double-strand tensioning device 7 and the four-strand tensioning device 18 abut against both ends of the mold. The double-strand tensioning device 7 is tensioned. The rodless cavity of the tensioning cylinder is supplied with oil. The oil pressure acts on the integral piston rod 704. The combined force of two adjacent tensioning cylinders acts on the pull rod 707. The thrust of the tensioning cylinder acts on the double-link plate 705, the pressure sensor 706, and the pull rod 707 in sequence, causing the connector 711 to displace. The tensioning pull rod stretches the steel bar for tensioning. The tensioning synchronization is precisely controlled by the hydraulic system that supplies oil to the tensioning cylinder. The pressure sensor 706 and the displacement sensor 712 transmit data to the control system, and the control system controls the output pressure and flow rate of the hydraulic system. The four-strand tensioning device 18 is tensioned. The lower tensioning module 1803 and the upper tensioning module 1804 have the same structure and work synchronously. Taking the lower tensioning module 1803 as an example, two groups of tensioning and locking mechanisms work synchronously. The cylinder inner cavity between adjacent sealing bushings in the tensioning cylinder body 1803-4 is pressurized. The oil pressure acts on the pull rod of the tensioning cylinder 1803-8. The thrust acts on the pressure plate 1803-9, the force sensor 1803-10, and the second pull rod 1803-5 in sequence, causing the second connector 1803-6 to displace. The tensioning pull rod stretches the steel bar for tensioning. The tensioning synchronization is precisely controlled by the hydraulic system that supplies oil to the tensioning cylinder. The force sensor 1803-10 and the displacement sensor transmit data to the control system, and the control system controls the output pressure and flow rate of the hydraulic system. The double-strand tensioning device 7 and the four-strand tensioning device 18 perform synchronous tensioning.

[0041] Locking, such as Figure 1-11 , the double-strand tensioning device 7 is locked. The motor 708 drives the gear to rotate, meshing with the external teeth of the connecting wrench sleeve 709, causing the connecting wrench sleeve 709 to rotate. The wing of the connecting wrench sleeve 709 catches the protrusion outside the nut, causing the nut to rotate relative to the tensioning pull rod and lock. The plug cylinder 710 works to drive the telescopic plug, separating the connector 711 from the tensioning pull rod. The four-strand tensioning device 18 is locked. The second motor 1803-3 drives the gear 1803-1 to rotate, meshing with the external teeth of the second connecting wrench sleeve 1803-2, causing the second connecting wrench sleeve 1803-2 to rotate. The wing of the second connecting wrench sleeve 1803-2 catches the protrusion outside the nut, causing the nut to rotate relative to the second pull rod 1803-5 and lock. The lifting cylinder 1803-7 works to drive the telescopic plug, separating the second connector 1803-6 from the second pull rod 1803-5.

[0042] The double-strand tensioning mechanism works. The first push cylinder 6 pulls the first moving beam 3 to slide along the track 2, causing several double-strand tensioning devices 7 distributed on the first moving beam 3 to move away from the mold 11. The second push cylinder 17 pulls the second moving beam 15 to slide along the track 2, causing several four-strand tensioning devices 18 distributed on the second moving beam 15 to move away from the mold 11. The tensioning is completed.
