The end beam 1 includes a first end beam 11 and a second end beam 12. The connecting beam 2 is connected between the first end beam 11 and the second end beam 12 through the connecting component 3.

[0041] The first end beam 11 and the second end beam 12 have the same structure, which will be described in detail below using the first end beam 11 as an example. The first end beam 11 is composed of two first webs 111 and a plurality of first connecting ribs 112. The two first webs 111 are symmetrically arranged, and the plurality of first connecting ribs 112 are fixed between the two first webs 111. The upper portions of the two first webs 111 are provided with a first groove 113, and the lower portions of the two first webs 111 are symmetrically provided with a first U-shaped groove 114 and a second U-shaped groove 115 on either side of the first groove 113.

The ends of the two first webs 111 connected to the connecting beam 2 are provided with a first mounting hole 117 and a second mounting hole 118.

[0044] Each connection assembly 3 includes a hinge shaft 31, two adjustment washers 32, a round nut 33, and a stop washer 34. For the connection assembly 3 connecting the first end beam 11 and the connecting beam 2, two adjustment washers 32 are installed between each first web 111 of the connecting beam 2 and the first end beam 11, respectively. The hinge shaft 31 is inserted into the adjustment washer 32, the round nut 33 is screwed onto the end of the hinge shaft 31, and the stop washer 34 is installed between the round nut 33 and the first end beam 11. Similarly, for the connection assembly 3 connecting the second end beam 12 and the connecting beam 2, two adjustment washers 32 are installed between each second web of the connecting beam 2 and the second end beam 12, respectively. The hinge shaft 31 is inserted into the adjustment washer 32, the round nut 33 is screwed onto the end of the hinge shaft 31, and the stop washer 34 is installed between the round nut 33 and the second end beam 12.

[0045] Furthermore, in the crane end beam structure of the present invention as described above, it is possible to determine whether a single wheel or double wheels are installed at the lower part of each end beam according to the wheel pressure state, and to determine the installation quantity and position of the connecting assembly 3 according to the installation quantity of the wheels 4. This allows the crane end beam structure to form an articulated end beam structure and a rigid end beam structure to adapt to different operating conditions, as described in detail below.

[0046] like Figure 6 As shown, wheels 4 are installed in the first U-shaped groove 114 and the second U-shaped groove 115 of the first end beam 11, and wheels 4 are installed in the third U-shaped groove and the fourth U-shaped groove of the second end beam 12, that is, double wheels are installed at the lower part of each end beam, and then a connecting component 3 is installed at the position corresponding to the first mounting hole 117 and the first connecting hole 21 and the position corresponding to the third mounting hole and the third connecting hole 23, respectively. The connecting component 3 is not installed at the position corresponding to the second mounting hole 118 and the second connecting hole 22 and the position corresponding to the fourth mounting hole and the fourth connecting hole 24. Thus, the crane end beam structure of the present invention is formed into an articulated end beam structure. Figure 6 In the figure, the position where the connecting component 3 is installed is indicated by a solid circle, and the position where the connecting component 3 is not installed is indicated by a hollow circle.

Similarly, the wheel 4 is mounted to the third and fourth U-shaped grooves of the second end beam 12 via a mounting bracket 41 and bolts 42. The mounting bracket 41 is engaged with the two second webs of the second end beam 12, and the bolts 42 are screwed into screw holes provided on the mounting bracket 41 and second bolt holes above the third and fourth U-shaped grooves, thereby securing the mounting bracket 41 to the second end beam 12 and thereby mounting the wheel 4 to the third and fourth U-shaped grooves of the second end beam 12. Furthermore, when removing the wheel 4, as needed, the mounting bracket 41 can be detached from the first and second end beams 11, 12 by unscrewing the bolts 42, thereby enabling quick and convenient removal of the wheel 4.

[0048] Furthermore, in the above-described articulated end beam structure, the connecting assembly 3 connects the first end beam 11 to the connecting beam 2 via the first mounting hole 117 and the first connecting hole 21, and the connecting assembly 3 connects the second end beam 12 to the connecting beam 2 via the third mounting hole and the third connecting hole 23. Specifically, the hinge shaft 31 is inserted into the first mounting hole 117, the adjustment washer 32, and the first connecting hole 21, the round nut 33 is screwed onto the end of the hinge shaft 31, and a stop washer 34 is installed between the round nut 33 and the first end beam 11; similarly, the hinge shaft 31 is inserted into the third mounting hole, the adjustment washer 32, and the third connecting hole 23, the round nut 33 is screwed onto the end of the hinge shaft 31, and a stop washer 34 is installed between the round nut 33 and the second end beam 12.

[0049] like Figure 7 As shown, a wheel 4 is installed in the first U-shaped groove 114 of the first end beam 11 away from the connecting beam 2, and a wheel 4 is installed in the fourth U-shaped groove of the second end beam 12 away from the connecting beam 2, that is, a single wheel is installed at the lower part of each end beam, and then a connecting assembly 3 is installed at the position corresponding to the first mounting hole 117 and the first connecting hole 21, the position corresponding to the second mounting hole 118 and the second connecting hole 22, the position corresponding to the third mounting hole and the third connecting hole 23, and the position corresponding to the fourth mounting hole and the fourth connecting hole 24. Thus, the crane end beam structure of the present invention is formed into a rigid end beam structure. Figure 7 In the figure, the location for installing the connecting component 3 is indicated by a solid circle.

[0050] In the rigid end beam structure described above, the wheel 4 is mounted to the first U-shaped groove 114 of the first end beam 11 via a mounting bracket 41 and bolts 42. The mounting bracket 41 is engaged with the two first webs 103 of the first end beam 11, and the bolts 42 are screwed into screw holes provided on the mounting bracket 41 and into first bolt holes 116 above the first U-shaped groove 114, thereby securing the mounting bracket 41 to the first end beam 11, thereby securing the wheel 4 to the first U-shaped groove 114 of the first end beam 11. Similarly, the wheel 4 is mounted to the fourth U-shaped groove of the second end beam 12 via the mounting bracket 41 and bolts 42.

In addition, according to actual needs, when removing the wheel 4, the mounting bracket 41 can be separated from the first end beam 11 and the second end beam 12 by unscrewing the bolt 42, thereby quickly and conveniently removing the wheel 4.

[0051] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned rigid end beam structure, the connecting component 3 connects the first end beam 11 with the connecting beam 2 via the first mounting hole 117 and the first connecting hole 21, and the second mounting hole 118 and the second connecting hole 22, and the connecting component 3 connects the second end beam 12 with the connecting beam 2 via the third mounting hole and the third connecting hole 23, and the fourth mounting hole and the fourth connecting hole 24. Specifically, the hinge shaft 31 is inserted into the first mounting hole 117, the adjusting washer 32, and the first connecting hole 21, the round nut 33 is screwed on the end of the hinge shaft 31, and a stop washer 34 is installed between the round nut 33 and the first end beam 11; and the hinge shaft 31 is inserted into the second mounting hole 118, the adjusting washer 32, and the second connecting hole 22, the round nut 33 is screwed on the end of the hinge shaft 31, and a stop washer 34 is installed between the round nut 33 and the first end beam 11; similarly, the hinge shaft 31 is inserted into the third mounting hole, the adjusting washer 32, and the third connecting hole 23, the round nut 33 is screwed on the end of the hinge shaft 31, and a stop washer 34 is installed between the round nut 33 and the second end beam 12; and the hinge shaft 31 is inserted into the fourth mounting hole, the adjusting washer 32, and the fourth connecting hole 24, the round nut 33 is screwed on the end of the hinge shaft 31, and a stop washer 34 is installed between the round nut 33 and the second end beam 12.

[0052] In the crane end beam structure of the present invention as described above, by adjusting the thickness of the adjusting washer 32, the gap between the first end beam 11 and the connecting beam 2 and the gap between the second end beam 12 and the connecting beam 2 can be controlled, thereby controlling the movement between the two end beams and ensuring the isotropic difference of the wheel 4 installed at the lower part of the end beam.

[0053] The crane's main beam 5 is mounted at the bottom of the first groove 113 of the first end beam 11 and at the bottom of the second groove of the second end beam 12. By mounting the main beam 5 at the lowest points of the first groove 113 on the first web 111 of the first end beam 11 and the second groove on the second web of the second end beam 12, the height of the crane bridge can be effectively reduced.

[0054] In addition, in the crane end beam structure as described above, the connection beams 2 of different lengths can be selected to meet the requirements of installing crane trolleys of different spans.
