Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a cable car, in particular to a cable car that travels above a double cable car and is used to install photovoltaic panels on the cable car.

[0002] The utility model relates to a cableway vehicle, belonging to the technical field of photovoltaic panel cableway installation. Background Art

[0003] The installation of photovoltaic panels on a cableway is largely unrestricted by topography. The cableway for photovoltaic panel installation includes high and low cables for laying the panels, as well as bottom cables for supporting and leveling the high and low cables. The angle between the planes on which the high and low cables lie after leveling and the horizontal plane is generally around 16 degrees. The traditional method for installing photovoltaic panels on a cableway is to first erect the cableway, then build a mounting frame on the ground for workers to operate. Workers then install the photovoltaic panels from the mounting frame. The installation process is a two-step process: the first step is to stand on the mounting frame and install a tripod between the high and low cables, as well as the bottom cables. The tripod leveles the high and low cables and provides enhanced support. The second step is to stand on the mounting frame and lay and secure the photovoltaic panels on the high and low cables.

[0004] The biggest drawback of the traditional installation method of building a mounting frame under the cableway is the huge increase in manpower and material costs. It is particularly difficult to build a frame in areas such as thorny wastelands, gullies, ponds, and muddy areas. Moreover, after the installation is completed in one area, the built mounting frame must be dismantled and moved.

[0005] After searching, we found several patent documents related to the installation of photovoltaic panels on cableways, such as:

The overall structure of this application is simple, and the photovoltaic module can be installed as long as the bracket upright is installed. The environmental requirements are low, and the versatility of the photovoltaic module bracket provided by this application is improved. At the same time, the photovoltaic module bracket has a small number of components, simple construction, small component size, and does not require large machinery for construction. Workers can carry out construction and installation with handheld tools, and the cost will be reduced compared to conventional brackets.

[0007] The application number is 202121052277.0, and the name is a utility model patent for a triangular connector for a suspension photovoltaic power station. The utility model discloses a triangular connector for a suspension photovoltaic power station, including a high cable plate, a low cable plate and a bottom plate.

Bottom plate tie rods are provided between the two bottom plate connecting ears on the right and the two high cable plate connecting ears, and between the two bottom plate connecting ears on the left and the two low cable plate connecting ears. A diagonal tie rod is provided between the high cable plate and the low cable plate. The two bottom plate pull rods and the oblique pull rods of the utility model are connected to form a triangle, which has a stable and high structure and is also convenient for adjusting to structures with different height differences.

[0008] The above patent documents all relate to the installation of photovoltaic panels, but none of them involve how to solve the problem of high manpower and material costs caused by traditional scaffolding installation methods.

[0037] To facilitate understanding of this application, it is first necessary to explain:

[0038] 1. If Figure 1 、 7As shown, the photovoltaic panels are laid and fixed on the high-position cable 6 and the low-position cable 7. A bottom cable is provided below the high-position cable 6 and the low-position cable 7, which is supported by a tripod and leveled. The angle between the plane where the high-position cable 6 and the low-position cable 7 are leveled and the horizontal plane is generally about 16 degrees, and the spacing between the high-position cable 6 and the low-position cable 7 is between 1.2 and 1.5 meters. The large width of the high-position cable 6 and the low-position cable 7 and the small angle between the plane where the high-position cable 6 and the low-position cable 7 are located and the horizontal plane provide the objective conditions for the feasibility of the double cableway of the high-position cable 6 and the low-position cable 7 described in this application.

[0039] 2. In order to ensure smooth passage of the cable car on the cableway, one of the inventions in this series is a cableway fastener 5 specially designed to support and level the high cable 6 and the low cable 7 on the tripod for fixing the high cable 6 and the low cable 7. Figure 7 As shown, the cableway fastener 5 includes a tripod fixing portion for installing and fixing the tripod and a cableway clamping portion 501 for clamping and fixing the cableway. The cableway clamping portion 501 is located above the inner side of the tripod fixing portion, and there is a horizontal spacing between the cableway clamping portion 501 and the tripod fixing portion. A transition connecting plate 502 is provided in the spacing to rigidly connect the cableway clamping portion 501 and the tripod fixing portion.

[0040] 3. The inner side and outer side mentioned in this article refer to the area between the high-position cable 6 and the low-position cable 7 as the inner side, and vice versa as the outer side.

[0041] 4. The double cableway mentioned in this article refers to the high cable 6 and the low cable 7.

[0042] The present invention will be further described below:

[0043] like Figure 1 As shown in FIG3 , a cable car running on a double cableway for installing photovoltaic panels on the double cableway comprises a base frame 1, a carrying platform and two sets of pulley frames 4. The carrying platform is arranged on the base frame 1, and the two sets of pulley frames 4 are respectively installed on the bottom surfaces of both sides of the base frame 1. When in use, the carrying platform carries personnel, photovoltaic panels and dark-transfer equipment, and the pulley frames 4 on both sides of the base frame 1 run on the high cable 6 and the low cable 7 respectively, transporting the personnel, photovoltaic panels, etc. to the installation location and fixing the photovoltaic panels to the high cable 6 and the low cable 7 on the cable car. In this way, the installation workers do not need to stand on the installation frame under the cableway to install and fix the photovoltaic panels, providing the necessary carrying tools for the installation of photovoltaic panels without scaffolding.

[0044] The cable car can be driven forward or backward by manual traction or electricity. If it is driven by electricity, a drive motor can be installed.

[0045] The base frame 1 has a high side beam 101 and a low side beam 102 whose horizontal height is lower than the high side beam 101 on both sides. The high side beam 101 and the low side beam 102 are respectively located on the side of the high cable 6 and the side of the low cable, so that there is a height difference between the horizontal heights of the two sides of the base frame 1 to adapt to the height difference between the high cable 6 and the low cable 7.

[0046] The loading platform includes a photovoltaic panel carrier 2 located at the bottom layer, which carries the photovoltaic panels, and a personnel carrier 3 located above and in front of the photovoltaic panel carrier 2, which carries the installation workers. The photovoltaic panels on the photovoltaic panel carrier 2 can slide from under the personnel carrier 3 to the upper cable 6 and the lower cable 7. This way, the installers have an independent place to stand without conflicting with the place where the photovoltaic panels are placed, which is convenient for the installers to drag the photovoltaic panels on the lower layer onto the cables without obstacles and carry out the installation operation conveniently.

[0047] The photovoltaic panel carrier 2 comprises a platform 201 fixed to the upper surface of the base frame 1 and a baffle 202 positioned on the lower edge of the base frame 1. This allows the photovoltaic panel to be placed on and dragged along the platform 201. The baffle 202 positioned on the lower edge of the base frame 1 prevents the panel from sliding outward.

[0048] The personnel platform 3 includes a frame 301 and a tread 302. The tread 302 is formed by laying a plurality of horizontal bars 3021 on the frame 301. There is a gap 3022 between two adjacent horizontal bars 3021, which is enough for a hand to reach the photovoltaic panel platform 2. In this way, the personnel can stand on the tread 302 and reach the photovoltaic panel platform 2 to drag the photovoltaic panel.

[0049] Since the photovoltaic panels are about one meter wide, it would be inconvenient for the installer to fix the adjacent frames of the two adjacent photovoltaic panels in front and behind by standing on the rear photovoltaic panel. Therefore, the front end of the platform 3 is designed to extend forward beyond the front end of the base frame 1, so that the operator can operate above the adjacent frames of the two photovoltaic panels.

[0050] For safety, guardrails 303 are provided on both sides of the personnel platform 3, and guardrails 203 are provided on both sides of the photovoltaic panel platform 2.

[0051] like Figure 4As shown in FIG. 7 , the pulley frame includes a frame body 401 and a pulley 402. The frame body has a rope passing space 403 communicating with the front and rear ends. The pulley 402 is installed on the upper part of the rope passing space 403. An outer opening 404 is provided on the outer side wall of the frame body to communicate with the rope passing space 403 and the outside. The cableway clamping portion 501 of the fastener 5 can pass through the rope passing space 403 under the pulley 402, and the transition connecting plate 502 of the fastener can pass through the outer opening 404. During use, the pulley frames are installed on both sides of the bottom surface of the cable car frame. The pulley frames on both sides of the bottom surface of the cable car frame run on the high cable and the low cable respectively. The pulleys 402 roll on the cables. When encountering the cable fastener 5, the cable clamping portion 501 of the fastener 5 can pass through the cable passage space 403 under the pulley 402. The top surface of the cable clamping portion 501 is specially designed with a height equal to the cable height. When passing through the cable passage space 403 under the pulley 402, the pulley 402 can roll over the top surface of the cable clamping portion 501 without any obstacles. At the same time, the transition connecting plate 502 of the fastener can pass through the outer opening 404. In this way, the pulley frame can smoothly pass the cable fastener.

[0052] The pulley 402 has a circumferential groove 4021 on its outer periphery, with flanges 4022 on the inner and outer sides of the groove 4021. The width of the groove 4021 is greater than the width of the cableway clamping portion 501 of the fastener. In this way, the upper end of the cableway clamping portion 501 can pass through the groove 4021 together with the cable.

[0053] A rotating tongue 405 is provided within the outer sidewall of the frame 401 between the outer opening 404 and the outer rim 4022 of the pulley 402. When the rotating tongue 405 is oriented downward, it can block the outer opening 404. With the rotating tongue 405 in the downward oriented state as a reference, a fixed rotating shaft 406 is provided at the upper end of the rotating tongue 405. The rotating shaft 406 passes through the outer sidewall of the frame 401 and is fixedly connected to the outer sidewall with a positioning arm 407 extending in the opposite direction to the rotating tongue 405. The upper end of the positioning arm 407 has a vertically arranged tension spring 408. The tension of the tension spring 408 causes the rotating tongue 405 to automatically move downward vertically to block the outer opening 404. When the rotating tongue 405 strikes the transition connecting plate 502 in a forward or backward direction, the rotating tongue 405 can be rotated forward or backward to allow the transition connecting plate 502 to pass through the outer opening 404. In this way, the cable can be prevented from slipping out of the outer opening 404 , while the transition plate 502 is not hindered from passing through the outer opening 404 .

[0054] The thickness of the rotating tongue 405 is less than the thickness of the outer rim 4022 of the pulley 402. Like this, avoid that the rotating tongue 405 forms an obstacle when the cableway clamping part 501 passes through the cable space 403 under the pulley 402.

[0055] The distance between the outer opening 404 and the bottom of the cable passage 403 is greater than the diameter of the cable car. This design ensures that if the cable car is shaken by strong winds and the cable escapes from the wheel groove 4021, it will fall to the bottom of the cable passage 403 below the outer opening 404 instead of stopping in the area of ​​the outer opening 404, reducing the risk of the cable escaping from the outer opening 404.

[0056] The upper and lower widths of the outer opening 404 are larger than the diameter of the cable running on the cableway. This design enables the cable to enter the cable space 403 through the outer opening 404 or move out of the cable space 403 through the outer opening 404. When performing the above operations, the rotating tongue 405 needs to be manually turned open.

[0057] The bottom of the wheel groove 4021 is V-shaped, with a first slope 4023 and a second slope 4024 for guiding the cable into the center of the wheel groove 4021. Thus, under the heavy pressure of the cable car, the first slope 4023 and the second slope 4024 guide the cable into the center of the wheel groove 4021, allowing the top of the cableway clamping portion 501 of the fastener 5 to pass through the wheel groove 4021 during operation of the cable car.

[0058] The cable passing space 403 is a rectangular space so as to correspond to the cableway clamping portion 501 of the fastener 5 designed to be rectangular.

[0059] like Figure 4 As shown, a mounting seat 409 for mounting the pulley frame on the cable car is provided on the top of the frame body 401 .

[0060] The above embodiments are only used to more clearly describe the present invention and cannot be regarded as limiting the scope of protection covered by the present invention. Any modifications in equivalent forms should be regarded as falling within the scope of protection covered by the present invention.
