Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of mountain air transport technology, specifically to an aerial rail transport vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] Most of the arable land in our country is mountainous and hilly. How to automate small-scale farming, semi-automate and intelligent transportation, and how to reduce the labor intensity and cost for farmers are problems that need to be solved.

[0003] Currently, there are also mountain transport vehicles. This type of transport divides the mountain into two parts to achieve the purpose of mountain transport, but it prevents other mechanical vehicles from passing through. Moreover, there are too many pillars, which are not sturdy enough. It is difficult to build in the loose loess soil of the north, and the service life is not long.

[0004] Skyrail transportation has emerged in recent years. Currently, some of the skyrails used do not have independent power systems. For example, they use electric hoists to automatically move along the track, and their movement is similar to that of a cable car. There are also skyrail trains that use magnetic levitation, but their construction costs are too high. Some skyrail cars have independent power systems, but their transmission methods are complex. In addition, the width and height of the track exceed 50cm, making the construction costs too high.

[0005] CN201120200323.7 discloses an aerial unmanned monorail without switches system, mainly to solve the problem of urban road traffic congestion. However, its track is fully enclosed with many columns. The motor of its power system is installed inside the hanging frame. In addition, the transmission connection between the motor and the railcar is a gear chain connection, which is not stable enough and maintenance is very inconvenient. Mountain transportation is still a technical problem that needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art of aerial transport vehicles and to provide an aerial rail transport vehicle.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] An aerial rail transport vehicle includes a U-shaped aerial rail and a supporting frame. A transmission box is mounted on the supporting frame, and transmission gears are mounted on both sides of the upper part of the transmission box. The transmission gears mesh with toothed rails located on both sides of the U-shaped aerial rail. A hanger is mounted on the transmission box, and a suspension box is detachably connected to the hanger after passing through the supporting frame. A power supply box and a winch are housed within the suspension box. Further, the transmission box includes a driven gear and a driving gear that meshes with the driven gear. Frame plates are mounted on both sides of the shafts of the driven and driving gears. The upper part of the frame plates extends into the U-shaped aerial rail, and the two ends of the driven gear shaft protrude from the frame plates to provide transmission gears. The shaft of the driving gear protrudes from the frame plates and connects to a motor.

[0009] Furthermore, bearing seats are installed on both sides of the driven gear shaft, and lifting rings are fitted on the bearing seats. The lifting rings are fixed to the bracket, and the bottom of the bracket is provided with connecting feet, which are detachably connected to the top of the suspension box.

[0010] Furthermore, auxiliary shafts are installed below the transmission gears on both frames, and auxiliary wheels are movably mounted on the auxiliary shafts.

[0011] Furthermore, a camera is installed at the bottom of the suspended box for real-time monitoring.

[0012] Furthermore, the lower side of the frame plate is provided with a connecting plate perpendicular to the frame plate, and the support hanger is provided with a through groove, and the support hanger on both sides of the through groove is provided with a connecting hole for installing the connecting plate.

[0013] Furthermore, both sides of the driven gear are fitted with driving gears, and the driving shafts of the driving gears are equipped with motors. Both sides of the support bracket are provided with mounting holes for connecting the motors.

[0014] Furthermore, an electrical trough slide rail is provided on the top inner side of the U-shaped aerial track. The two sides inside the electrical trough slide rail are used for sliding connection of electrical conduits and wires. The wires pass through the suspension box and are connected to the power supply box set inside the suspension box. The power supply box is connected to the motor and winch through wires.

[0015] Furthermore, the auxiliary wheel includes a first auxiliary wheel body, and a second auxiliary wheel body is concentrically arranged on the side of the first auxiliary wheel body, with the diameter of the second auxiliary wheel body being larger than that of the first auxiliary wheel body. The distance between the first auxiliary wheel body and the bottom of the U-shaped aerial track, and the distance between the second auxiliary wheel body and the side of the U-shaped aerial track, are both 5mm. This arrangement allows for limiting the movement of the U-shaped aerial track in both the bottom and side directions.

[0016] Furthermore, both sides of the transmission gear are equipped with a disc gravity support that is an integral part of the driven gear shaft, and the disc gravity support is located in the groove of the U-shaped aerial track.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0018] This invention features a simple structure. Each suspension box is equipped with an independent power system, allowing for independent operation or stopping. The suspension boxes are fixed using a bracket, which connects to the transmission box in a simple and reliable manner. The invention utilizes a transmission gear and a toothed track, ensuring stable and reliable operation. The transmission method is simple and low-cost, suitable for both single and double rails. In double-rail operation, a custom-designed toothless curved track can be used at the turning point, allowing the trolley to be manually stopped or restarted when it reaches this position. The track vehicle operates with dual motors, providing ample power. A problem with one motor does not affect the overall operation, resulting in greater stability and safety. The transmission method is simple, safe, and reliable. The track width does not exceed 15cm, the height does not exceed 8cm, and the length is 2 meters. It can be segmented and connected using welding technology, resulting in low manufacturing costs.

[0019] The bearing seat of this invention has a groove, and the installation ring can be stably locked in the groove on the bearing seat. The ring is fitted with the bearing seat and connected to the suspension box through the hanger. The state is stable. The ring and the suspension box are rigidly connected. During the two processes of starting to move or stopping, the suspension box will swing back and forth due to inertia. The ring can make the suspension box swing slightly, which can reduce the torque caused by the swing on the entire track.

[0020] This invention achieves the purpose of limiting movement through auxiliary wheels, which can limit the movement of the U-shaped aerial track in two directions: the bottom and the sides, ensuring smooth operation and preventing deviation.

[0021] When the railcar of this invention is running, the transmission gear is responsible for operation. The disc gravity support on the side of the transmission gear and the groove of the U-shaped aerial track can bear the weight of the goods, ensuring smoother operation.

[0022] The present invention relates to an aerial railcar in which the electric wire sliding groove rail is fixed inside the U-shaped track to prevent rainwater from getting in and causing leakage, and to prevent the danger of electric shock to people or animals.

[0023] This invention can be applied to mountain farming, enabling small-scale mechanization of mountain farming, reducing labor intensity and costs, improving transportation quality, shortening transportation time, and making transportation semi-automated and intelligent. It can be applied to vigorously developing rural agriculture and animal husbandry, and can also be applied to freight transportation.

[0024] This invention can replace aerial cable cars, and it is cheaper to build and more economical in terms of transportation. Because each suspended cabin has an independent power system, it can be stopped when passengers get on and off the cable car, ensuring safety. Each suspended cabin can be stopped and started immediately, making it more energy-efficient and safer, and it can also be used by people with mobility issues, saving electricity.

Detailed Implementation

[0040] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0041] like Figure 1-12 As shown, an aerial rail transport vehicle includes a U-shaped aerial rail 22 and a support frame 16. The support frame 16 is equipped with a transmission box, which includes a driven gear 2 and a driving gear 4 that cooperates with both sides of the driven gear 2. The driving shaft 5 of the driving gear 4 is equipped with a motor 15. The support frame 16 has mounting holes 19 on both sides for connecting the motor 15. The support frame 16 and the motor 15 are connected by bolts.

[0042] Furthermore, a frame plate 12 is mounted on both sides of the shafts of the driven gear 2 and the driving gear 4. Bearing seats 1 are mounted on both sides of the shaft of the driven gear 2. The bearing seats 1 and the frame plate 12 are connected by a first bearing 11. The shaft of the driving gear 4 is connected to the frame plate 12 by a second bearing 14. A lifting ring 8 is also fitted on the bearing seat 1 (the bearing seat 1 has a groove for fitting the lifting ring 8). The lifting ring 8 is fixed integrally with the hanger 7. A base foot 6 is welded to the bottom of the hanger 7. The base foot 6 passes through the support hanger 16 and is connected to the suspension box 20 by bolts (the base foot 6 is connected to the base plate 21 on the top of the suspension box 20). Furthermore, after the driven gear 2 shaft extends out of the frame plate 12 at both ends, a transmission gear 3 is provided. The transmission gear 3 cooperates with the toothed rails 24 set on both sides of the U-shaped aerial track 22. An auxiliary shaft 9 is installed below the frame plate 12 where the transmission gear 3 is installed. An auxiliary wheel 10 is mounted on the auxiliary shaft 9 through bearings. The auxiliary wheel 10 includes a first auxiliary wheel body 29. A second auxiliary wheel body 30, which is integrally formed with the first auxiliary wheel body 29, is concentrically provided on the side of the first auxiliary wheel body 29. The diameter of the second auxiliary wheel body 30 is larger than that of the first auxiliary wheel body 29. The distance between the first auxiliary wheel body 29 and the bottom of the U-shaped aerial track 22, and the distance between the second auxiliary wheel body 30 and the side of the U-shaped aerial track 22 are both 5mm.

[0043] The upper part of the frame plate 12 extends into the U-shaped aerial track 22. A connecting plate 13 perpendicular to the frame plate 12 is welded to the lower side of the frame plate 12. A through groove 17 is provided on the support hanger 16, and the support hanger 16 on both sides of the through groove 17 is provided with connecting holes 18 for installing the connecting plate 13. The connecting plate 13 is connected to the support hanger 16 by bolts.

[0044] The hanging box 20 contains a power supply box 27, and a camera 28 is installed at the bottom of the hanging box 20. The top of the inner side of the U-shaped aerial track 22 is provided with an electrical channel slide rail 23. The top and sides of the electrical channel slide rail 23 are covered with an insulating layer. The two sides inside the electrical channel slide rail 23 are used to slide and connect the electrical conduit 31 and the wire. The electrical conduit 31 is fastened to one side of the support bracket 16 by a bracket and bolts. One end of the wire is slidably hung in the electrical channel slide rail 23 inside the U-shaped aerial track 22, and the other end of the wire passes through the electrical conduit 31 and the hanging box 20 and is connected to the power supply box 27.

[0045] The power supply box 27 is connected to the motor 15, camera 28, and winch 25 via wires. The power supply box 27 is used to supply power to the motor 15, winch 25, and camera 28. The operation, stopping, and control of the motor 15 and winch 25 do not involve innovation and are not the focus of this patent. The focus of this patent is the transmission structure.

[0046] During the movement of the suspended vehicle, the power lines are suspended in the U-shaped overhead track 22 and move with the suspension box 20 to supply power to the motor. The principle is the same as that of trams and electric trains (power supply and control are not protected by this invention).

[0047] When the motor 15 starts, it drives the drive gear 4 to rotate, which in turn drives the driven gear 2 to rotate, and then the transmission gear 3 to rotate. The transmission gear 3 cooperates with the toothed rails 24 on both sides of the U-shaped aerial track 22. Under the action of the motor 15 and the transmission gear 3, the aerial rail transport vehicle begins to move. The auxiliary wheels 10 on both sides of the U-shaped aerial track 22 can limit the U-shaped aerial track 22 to prevent it from deviating. After reaching the destination, the motor 15 stops.

[0048] The monorail transportation system can operate on a single track. When operating on a single track, it is used to transport agricultural and livestock products in mountainous areas. At this time, a winch 25 is installed in the suspension box 20. The winch 25 is connected to the power supply box 27. The winch 25 is equipped with a suspension hook 26, which is used to suspend the transport box or passenger car, etc. The suspension hook 26 is only shown in the figure and the existing technology is very mature.

[0049] This invention can also operate on dual tracks for tourism. In this case, the winch 25 is not required; the passenger carriage only needs to be connected to the bottom of the suspension box. When operating on dual tracks, a toothless curved track can be customized at the turning point at the end. When the trolley reaches this position, it can be manually stopped or started.

[0050] This invention can fix disc gravity supports 33 on both sides of the transmission gear 3. The disc gravity supports 33 are located in the groove of the U-shaped aerial track 22 and are used to support the weight of the track vehicle during movement (e.g., ...). Figure 13 ).
