DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0025] The following combines the drawings and gives embodiments to describe the present invention in detail.

[0026] This embodiment provides an inverted trapezoid heavy-duty spreader for hoisting large-tonnage cylindrical equipment in a cylindrical space, which can realize the transverse centering adjustment and longitudinal centering adjustment of the spreader. At the same time, the spreader can prevent the large-scale rotation of the cylindrical equipment and the rubbing between the spreader and the equipment.

[0027] As Figure 1 shown, the spreader includes: a beam 1, an adjusting screw 2, a hoisting rope 3 and a U-shaped shackle 4; among them, as Figure 2As shown in the figure, the crossbeam 1 includes: a main beam 11, a guide seat 12, an end lug 13, and a reinforcing ring 14;

[0028] Two guide seats 12 are symmetrically fixed (fixed by welding) on both sides of the upper end of the main beam 11 in the length direction. They cooperate with the external guide structure to limit the upward movement of the lifting tool along the axial direction of the cylindrical space. That is, when the lifting tool lifts the cylindrical equipment to the limit position, the lifting tool can only drive the cylindrical equipment to move radially along the cylindrical space and cannot continue to move upward along the axial direction of the cylindrical space, thereby realizing the radial guidance and axial limit of the cylindrical equipment and the lifting tool during the operation in the cylindrical space;

[0029] End lugs 13 are arranged at both ends of the main beam 11 in the length direction, and the two end lugs 13 are symmetric about the width direction of the main beam 11; the end lug 13 is a double-ear structure, and rollers are equipped on the double-ear connecting shaft. On the one hand, when the lifting tool carries the cylindrical equipment and moves radially along the cylindrical space, the rollers contact the external support structure, thereby playing an axial supporting role for the lifting tool and the cylindrical equipment; on the other hand, the rollers form rolling friction with the external support structure, which can reduce the frictional resistance; after the lifting tool moves radially along the cylindrical space to the position, the rollers on the end lug 13 disengage from the external support structure, and the lateral adjustment of the lifting tool itself and the up-and-down lifting operation of the lifting tool carrying the cylindrical equipment are carried out; among them, the length direction (longitudinal direction) of the main beam 11 is the lateral direction of the lifting tool, and the width direction (transverse direction) of the main beam 11 is the longitudinal direction of the lifting tool;

[0030] As Figure 3 shown, the main beam 11 is a box girder, which includes: an upper wing plate 111, a lower wing plate 112, a web 113, and a rib plate 114; the upper wing plate 111 and the lower wing plate 112 are connected into one body by the webs 113 arranged front and back. Two rib plates 114 are symmetrically arranged between the two webs 113 in the longitudinal direction of the main beam 11, and each rib plate 114 is arranged in the transverse direction of the main beam 11; among them, the upper wing plate 111 and the lower wing plate 112 have the structural bending resistance, the web 113 mainly bears the shear stress of the structure and the principal tensile stress caused by the torsional shear stress, and the rib plate 114 is used to enhance the longitudinal stiffness of the main beam 11;

[0031] Longitudinal ends of the upper wing plate 111 and the lower wing plate 112 are respectively provided with through inclined through holes (corresponding to two inclined through holes on the main beam 11). The axial direction of each inclined through hole forms an inclination angle of 0.1° - 1° with the vertical direction where the lifting equipment of the spreader is located, and the lower ends of the inclined through holes at both ends of the main beam 11 are inclined towards each other; reinforcing rings 14 are provided at the upper ends of the inclined through holes at both ends of the main beam 11. The interior of the reinforcing ring 14 is in the shape of a spherical bowl. The upper end of the adjusting screw 2 is arranged in the inclined through hole, and the reinforcing ring 14 cooperates with the spherical washer 24 on the adjusting screw 2, so that the spherical surface of the spherical washer 24 can rotate in the spherical bowl of the reinforcing ring 14, ensuring that the spreader presents different inverted trapezoids according to different equipment; among them, the cooperation between the reinforcing ring 14 and the spherical washer 24, on the one hand, facilitates flexible adjustment of the inverted trapezoid shape of the spreader, and on the other hand, can reduce local extrusion and reduce stress concentration;

[0032] The upper end of the lifting rope 3 is pin-connected with the double-ear seat at the lower end of the adjusting screw 2 through pin shaft Ⅱ 25, and the lower end is pin-connected with the double-ear at the upper end of the U-shaped shackle 4 through shackle pin 5. The double-ears at the lower end of the U-shaped shackle 4 are pin-connected with the inherent trunnion (heavy load lifting point) on the equipment through pin shaft Ⅲ 26, so as to realize that the lifting rope 3 and the equipment form a certain inclination angle, and the adjusting screw 2 and the lifting rope 3 on the same side are on the same inclined straight line.

[0033] In this embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, the adjusting screw 2 further includes: a pull rod, pin shaft Ⅰ 21, split pin 22 and nut 23; the upper end of the pull rod is provided with external threads and the lower end is a smooth shaft, and the double-ear seat is located at the lower end of the pull rod. The pull rod is arranged in the inclined through hole of the main beam 11, and pin shaft Ⅰ 21 passes through the radial hole at the upper end, and the split pin 22 is used in cooperation to prevent the pull rod from falling out of the inclined through hole when moving axially; among them, the split pin 22 is arranged in the radial hole of pin shaft Ⅰ 21;

[0034] The anti-loosening of the threaded part of the pull rod is realized by forming an opposed form by sleeving two nuts 23 on it. Loosen the two nuts 23 on the threaded part, and the pull rod can be adjusted up and down to adapt to different lifting positions. When the lifting positions are different, the adjusting screw 2 and the equipment present different inclination angles; the spherical washer 24 is compacted by the nut 23 to cooperate with the spherical surface of the reinforcing ring 14.

[0035] In this embodiment, the main beam 11 further includes: a butterfly ear 115, which is arranged between the two webs 113, and three ear seats on it respectively pass through the two webs 113 and the upper wing plate 111. The ear seats passing through the two webs 113 are pin-connected with the lifting power source steel wire rope of the external lifting system to realize the transmission of the lifting power of the spreader; the ear seat passing through the upper wing plate 111 is connected with a lateral adjustment mechanism 6 to realize the transmission of the lateral adjustment power.

[0036] In this embodiment, the lateral adjustment mechanism 6 can move along the lateral direction of the spreader (i.e., the longitudinal direction of the main beam 11). It is connected to the double ears of the cross beam 1 through a single ear. The lateral adjustment mechanism 6 drives the cross beam 1 to be adjusted in the lateral direction, so as to realize the lateral movement of the spreader driving the equipment.

[0037] In this embodiment, a bushing 15 is provided in each inclined through hole. The adjustment screw 2 is placed in the corresponding inclined through hole through the bushing 15, so that the adjustment screw 2 is arranged obliquely, which is beneficial to ensuring the stable installation between the adjustment screw 2 and the inclined through hole.

[0038] In this embodiment, the adjustment screw 2 is made of high-strength alloy steel with excellent mechanical properties (such as 30CrMnSi or 30CrMnSiA), and the heat treatment performance (30 - 34HRC) and the chromium-plated hard layer (controlled at 0.03 - 0.05 mm) should be ensured.

[0039] In this embodiment, the upper and lower double ears of the U-shaped shackle 4 are arranged in a cross shape. The axial direction of the ear holes of the upper double ears is parallel to the length direction of the main beam 11, and the axial direction of the ear holes of the lower double ears is parallel to the width direction of the main beam 11. The upper double ears are connected to the suspension rope 3 through the shackle pin 5 and remain in this state before and after the lifting operation. The lower double ears are connected to the inherent trunnion on the equipment through the pin Ⅲ 26. The lower double ears of the U-shaped shackle 4 are the connection positions between the spreader and the equipment. The arrangement of the lower double ears can, on the one hand, ensure that the U-shaped shackle 4 does not rub against the equipment when installed and removed, and on the other hand, facilitate disassembly.

[0040] In this embodiment, the U-shaped shackle 4 is made of high-strength alloy steel with excellent mechanical properties (such as 30CrMnSi or 30CrMnSiA), and the heat treatment performance (reaching 30 - 34HRC) and the chromium-plated hard layer (controlled at 0.03 - 0.05 mm) should be ensured.

[0041] In summary, the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
