DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.

[0020] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 This embodiment is a rolling mill arch unloading hoist, primarily consisting of a base plate 1, base transverse reinforcement 2, base longitudinal reinforcement 3, movable blocks 4, lifting lugs 6, and a positioning mechanism. The base plate 1 is rectangular, with a width less than the width of the rectangular opening in the rolling mill arch 10 and a length greater than the width of the rectangular opening. The lower surface of the base plate 1 is welded with three base transverse reinforcements 2 and three base longitudinal reinforcements 3.

[0021] Four lifting lugs 6 are symmetrically welded to the inner side of the long sides of the upper surface of the base plate 1. The lifting lugs 6 are located at the edges of the long sides and are connected to the rope loops at the lower ends of the wire ropes 12 via shackles 11. Four movable blocks 4 are symmetrically installed at both ends of the wide side of the base plate 1. The movable blocks 4 are L-shaped, and the horizontal portions of the movable blocks 4 are connected to the adjustment holes 1-1 of the base plate 1 via two bolts. The adjustment holes 1-1 are arranged in multiple groups along the length of the base plate 1. The wide side of the base plate 1 outside the movable blocks 4 is used to support the columns 10-1 of the rolling mill arch 10. The vertical portions of the movable blocks 4 are against the inner side surfaces of the columns 10-1 of the rolling mill arch 10. A pad 7 is placed between the vertical portion and the column 10-1. The thickness and number of the pads 7 are selected based on the distance between the column 10-1 and the vertical portion.

[0022] The upper surface of the base plate 1 is equipped with a positioning mechanism consisting of positioning blocks 8 and positioning rods 9. Two positioning blocks 8 are welded to the base plate 1. The positioning blocks 8 are located in the middle of the base plate 1, close to the long sides, and are staggered. The positioning rods 9 are parallel to the wide sides of the base plate 1. The positioning blocks 8 have threaded holes extending through them. The positioning blocks 8 are threadedly connected to the positioning rods 9. The outer ends of the two positioning rods 9 abut the inner surfaces of the upper crossbeam 10-2 and lower bottom beam 10-3 of the mill arch 10, respectively. The positioning mechanism is used to adjust the center of gravity of the spreader so that the center of gravity of the spreader coincides with the center of gravity of the mill arch 10.

[0023] The usage process of this embodiment is as follows: when loading the rolling mill arch 10, it is placed flat on the trailer in strict accordance with the requirements of the sling, and the height of the padding is greater than the overall thickness of the sling. The position of the movable block 4 is adjusted according to the width of the rectangular hole of the rolling mill arch 10, and the four lifting ears 6 of the sling are connected to the lower ends of the four steel ropes 12 through the shackles 11. The upper ends of the steel ropes 12 are hung on the hooks of the lifting machinery to lift the sling; the width direction of the sling is made consistent with the width direction of the rolling mill arch 10, and the sling is placed in the rectangular hole of the rolling mill arch 10. The upper plate surface of the bottom plate 1 is lower than the bottom surface of the rolling mill arch 10, and the sling is rotated 90 degrees so that the wide side of the bottom plate 1 outside the movable block 4 is supported on the rolling mill arch. The bottom surface of the mill arch 10 is adjusted, and the positioning rods 9 are adjusted so that the two ends of the two positioning rods 9 respectively abut the inner sides of the upper cross beam 10-2 and the lower bottom beam 10-3 of the mill arch 10. The position of the sling is adjusted through the positioning mechanism so that the center of gravity of the sling coincides with the center of gravity of the mill arch 10. Shims 7 are placed between the movable stopper 4 and the inner side surface of the mill arch 10 to ensure that the movable stopper 4 is tightly pressed against the column 10-1. After lifting, the wide side of the bottom plate 1 outside the movable stopper 4 lifts the mill arch 10 and the mill arch 10 is moved away from the transport vehicle.

[0024] The present invention has a simple structure, greatly reduces the requirement for the length of the wire rope, and saves the purchase and customization cost; at the same time, the number of personnel required for unloading is reduced, the unloading time is significantly shortened, and the efficiency is greatly improved; the sling can also be reused many times.

[0025] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structural changes made using the contents of the present invention description and drawings are included in the scope of the present invention.
