Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of tunnel jumbo, and in particular to a jumbo driving device. Background Art

[0002] As is known, during tunnel construction, a jumbo is an indispensable construction platform and tunnel formwork support; usually, the jumbo needs to bear a weight of dozens of tons or even hundreds of tons, so multiple legs are provided on both sides thereof, and a driving device for traveling along a track is provided at the bottom of the legs. The driving device includes a traveling frame, a driving wheel and a driven wheel, and the leg is hinged at a position corresponding to the driving wheel and the driven wheel of the traveling frame;

[0003] Most of the existing jumbo driving devices install a motor and a speed reducer at the top end of one side of the traveling frame, and the output shaft of the speed reducer is connected to the driving wheel by chain drive. Although this structure can directly purchase a speed reducer and reduce the assembly difficulty, it is found in the long-term use process that when the speed reducer drives the driving wheel, it applies pressure to the top of the traveling frame, which is likely to cause deformation or damage to the traveling frame; in order to avoid interference with the legs, the speed reducer needs to be far away from the legs, extending the length of the traveling frame and increasing the overall volume of the driving device;

[0004] At the same time, a problem that has always troubled the industry is that due to the large self-weight of the jumbo, a large starting torque is required, and there is no overload protection mechanism in the transmission chain of the existing driving device. Due to its harsh working environment, the existing friction type overload protection mechanism and constant torque type overload protection mechanism are difficult to operate normally for a long time; or an electronic overload protection device is added at the motor end, but it can only protect the motor, and there is no protection measure between the speed reducer and the driving wheel. During tunnel construction, problems such as chain breakage and speed reducer damage often occur, seriously delaying the project deadline. The above defects are problems that need to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art;

[0005] In addition, due to the size limitation of the traveling frame of the existing driving device, it is difficult to directly brake the driving wheel or the driven wheel. Most of them rely on the motor brake to achieve braking. If the speed reducer is damaged or the chain is broken, there is a high risk of the jumbo slipping, and the safety hazard is relatively large;

[0006] A Chinese patent (publication number: CN106567720A) discloses a travel control device and control method for a tunnel lining formwork trolley. This patent detects the torque on the reducer input shaft using a torque sensor installed between the left and right drive motors and the reducer. The tension on the chains connected between the reducer output shaft and the driving wheel on the left and right sides is calculated based on the reducer's transmission ratio and the radius of the reducer output shaft sprocket. The angles of rotation of the left and right driven wheels are detected by encoders installed on the left and right traveling frames and connected to the wheel shafts. The controller receives the collected torque and angle signals and controls the left and right drive motors by comparing them with set values. Although this patent can prevent chain breakage, the reducer is located at the top of one end of the traveling frame, which can easily cause deformation or damage to the traveling frame. The drive device is bulky and occupies a large space.

[0007] A Chinese patent (publication number: CN111980728A) discloses a tunnel drainage board laying trolley. Combined with Figures 7 and 8 of its specification, it can be seen that its travel reduction motor is arranged on the upper part of the travel mechanism, which also has the problem of easily causing deformation or damage to the travel mechanism, and the drive device is large in size and occupies a large space.

[0031] The present invention can be explained in detail through the following embodiments. The purpose of disclosing the present invention is to protect all technical improvements within the scope of the present invention. In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that if there are terms such as "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", etc. indicating the orientation or position relationship, it is only corresponding to the drawings of the present application for the convenience of describing the present invention, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation.

[0032] Embodiment 1, in conjunction with the attached Figures 1 - 2 , a trolley driving device, comprising a walking frame 1, a motor 2, a speed reduction mechanism 3, and wheels 4; at the bottom of one end of the walking frame 1, two wheels 4 are rotatably connected at intervals, and above the walking frame 1 between the two wheels 4, there is a hinge mounting hole 5 for corresponding hinge connection with the corresponding leg of the trolley; at the other end of the walking frame 1, a motor 2 is installed, and inside this end of the walking frame 1, there is a speed reduction mechanism 3 corresponding to the output shaft of the motor 2 for transmission connection.

[0033] The output shaft of the speed reduction mechanism 3 is corresponding to the adjacent wheel 4 for transmission connection, and between the output shaft of the speed reduction mechanism 3 and the adjacent wheel 4, there is an overload protection device 6 for protecting the speed reduction mechanism 3 and the motor 2, which can effectively avoid damage to the speed reduction mechanism 3 or transmission failure between the output shaft of the speed reduction mechanism 3 and the adjacent wheel 4;

[0034] Preferably, the speed reduction mechanism 3 comprises a worm and worm gear reduction device 3-1 and a gear reduction device 3-2 corresponding to transmission connection.

The diameter of the end of the plug 7-7 corresponding to the cam 7-6 is larger than the diameter of the connecting shaft 7-3, which can prevent the cam 7-6 and the plug 7-7 from accidentally getting stuck; at the same time, the extension length of the connecting shaft 7-3 can be adjusted by screwing the plug 7-7, thereby ensuring that the two brake plates 7-2 can simultaneously contact the corresponding wheels 4, ensuring the braking effect, reducing the difficulty of assembly, and the wear of the brake plates 7-2 can be compensated by adjusting the plug 7-7, thereby improving the service life;

[0040] In addition, the connecting shaft 7-3 is provided with a spring 7-4 for making the brake plate 7-2 fit correspondingly with the corresponding end of the fixing frame 7-1, that is, when the brake is unlocked, the connecting shaft 7-3 can automatically retreat and reset under the action of the spring 7-4, so that the brake plate 7-2 is separated from the corresponding wheel 4; the brake plate 7-2 is provided with an arc-shaped brake shoe 7-5 on the side away from the fixing frame 7-1 that is in friction contact with the corresponding wheel 4.
