[0070] As shown in Figures 1 to 17 , the present disclosure provides a pipe crane, in some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the pipe crane comprises a chassis 1, an arm support 2 provided on the first side of the chassis 1 along the left-right direction x, the arm support 2 comprising two longitudinal beams 21, the two longitudinal beams 21 being spaced apart along the front-rear direction y of the chassis 1, a hoisting mechanism 3 provided on the arm support 2 for hoisting operation of the hook 6, a first adjusting assembly 7 provided on the first side of the chassis 1 along the left-right direction x for adjusting the angle of the arm support 2 in the vertical plane along the front-rear direction y, a counterweight assembly 4 provided on the second side of the chassis 1 along the left-right direction x, and a second adjusting assembly 9 provided on the second side of the chassis 1 along the left-right direction x for adjusting the angle of the counterweight assembly 4 in the vertical plane along the front-rear direction y.
[0071] As shown in Figure 3 , the chassis 1 comprises a vehicle frame 11 and two track frames 12, the two track frames 12 being connected to the two sides of the vehicle frame 11 along the left-right direction x, and the track frames 12 being surrounded by the tracks 13. The cab 14 and the equipment room 15 can be provided above the vehicle frame 11 along the front-rear direction, and during driving, the equipment room 15 is located in the front region of the vehicle frame 11 and the cab 14 is located in the rear region of the vehicle frame 11.
[0072] The arm support 2 is provided on the first side of the chassis 1 along the left-right direction x, for example, Figure 1 , the arm support 2 is located on the left side, the arm support 2 comprises two longitudinal beams 21, the two longitudinal beams 21 being spaced apart along the front-rear direction y of the chassis 1, the two longitudinal beams 21 forming an A shape from top to bottom, and the two longitudinal beams 21 being connected by a cross beam 22. The first adjusting assembly 7 can rotate the arm support 2 in the vertical plane along the front-rear direction y to adjust the level.
[0073] The hoisting mechanism 3 is provided on the arm support 2 for hoisting operation of the hook 6, the hoisting operation including lifting or lowering heavy objects by the hook 6. The luffing mechanism 8 is used for luffing of the arm support 2, and the luffing mechanism 8 is independently provided with the hoisting mechanism 3. Luffing is to rotate the arm support 2 in the central plane thereof. The hoisting mechanism 3 and the luffing mechanism 8 can be aligned with the arm support 2 along the front-rear direction y.
[0074] The counterweight assembly 4 is located on the two sides of the chassis 1 along the left-right direction x with the arm support 2, respectively. When the arm support 2 performs hoisting operation, the center of gravity of the pipe crane is biased to one side of the arm support 2, and by providing the counterweight assembly 4, the stability of the pipe crane operation can be improved.
[0075] In view of the fact that the lifting boom and the lifting and luffing mechanism of the pipe hoisting machine do not have the leveling technology and cannot solve the problem of lifting construction on a large slope in a mountainous area, the embodiment can be applied to the operation in a mountainous area, the first adjusting assembly 7 can level the boom 2 according to the slope, and the problem of pipe hoisting technology in a complex environment in a mountainous area can be solved. When driving on a slope or performing lifting operation after leveling, the boom 2 can be prevented from being damaged due to side load, and the whole machine can be prevented from being unstable due to large torque, so as to ensure the safety, reliability and stability of lifting on a slope.
[0076] Moreover, in the process of leveling the boom 2, the second adjusting assembly 9 can be used to adjust the angle of the counterweight assembly 4 in the vertical plane in the front-rear direction y, so as to adjust the center of gravity of the pipe hoisting machine when the pipe hoisting machine operates on a slope, and thus the leveling of the boom 2 can keep the pipe hoisting machine in a stable state.
[0077] In addition, the lifting mechanism 3 is fixed on the boom 2, and when the boom 2 adjusts the angle in the longitudinal plane in the front-rear direction y, the lifting mechanism 3 can directly change the angle with the boom 2, so as to ensure the smooth lifting operation.
[0078] In some embodiments, the pipe hoisting machine further comprises a luffing mechanism 8 for luffing the boom 2, and the second adjusting assembly 9 is used to adjust the angle of the luffing mechanism 8 in the vertical plane in the front-rear direction y.
[0079] The luffing mechanism 8 is used for luffing the boom 2, and the luffing mechanism 8 is independently arranged with the lifting mechanism 3. The lifting mechanism 3 and the luffing mechanism 8 can be aligned with the boom 2 along the front-rear direction y.
[0080] The boom 2 can rotate in the central plane thereof to perform luffing. When the pipe hoisting machine is on a slope, if the boom 2 is in a vertical state through leveling, the boom 2 rotates in the vertical plane in the left-right direction x to perform luffing; if the boom 2 still has a certain angle with the vertical plane after leveling, the rotation plane of the boom 2 also has a certain angle with the vertical plane, but the rotation plane is always perpendicular to the chassis 1.
[0081] The embodiment can level the boom 2 and the luffing mechanism 8 according to the slope, and the first adjusting assembly 7 and the second adjusting assembly 9 are independent in structure, simple in structure, small in control difficulty, easy to operate, high in practicability and economy. Moreover, in the process of leveling the luffing mechanism 8 through the second adjusting assembly 9, the posture of the counterweight assembly 4 can also be adjusted to assist in changing the center of gravity of the pipe hoisting machine, so as to further improve the stability of the pipe hoisting machine, prevent the whole machine from being unstable due to large torque, and ensure the safety, reliability and stability of lifting on a slope.
[0082] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 1, Figure 1 andFigure 2 The first adjusting assembly 7 and the second adjusting assembly 9 each include a fixed frame including a first mounting plate 71 fixed to the chassis 1 and a triangular frame 72 fixed above the first mounting plate 71, a movable frame 74 rotatably mounted to the top of the triangular frame 72 at the middle region in the front-rear direction y through a first hinge shaft A extending in the left-right direction x, and two first linear drive components 70 respectively located at both sides of the triangular frame 72 in the front-rear direction y and each having two ends hingedly connected with the fixed frame and the movable frame 74. The bottom portions of the two longitudinal beams 21 are hingedly connected with both ends of the movable frame 74 in the front-rear direction y, and the hinge shafts are arranged in the front-rear direction y.
[0083] The first mounting plate 71 can be fixed to the position close to the outer side of the chassis 1 in the left-right direction x, the triangular frame 72 is located outside the chassis 1 as a whole, and the bottom surface of the triangular frame 72 is in contact with the first mounting plate 71. The first linear drive components 70 can be electric push rods, hydraulic cylinders or air cylinders, etc. The two first linear drive components 70 are in telescopic cooperation, and can realize the angle adjustment of the movable frame 74.
[0084] The first adjusting assembly 7 and the second adjusting assembly 9 of this embodiment have simple structure, high action reliability and easy control, can change the angle of the movable frame 74 in the vertical plane in the front-rear direction y, and thus reliably and accurately adjust the rotation angle of the boom 2, the counterweight assembly 4 or the luffing mechanism 8 in the vertical plane in the front-rear direction y. Moreover, the first adjusting assembly 7 and the second adjusting assembly 9 have the same structure and are respectively arranged at both sides of the chassis 1, which can make the structure of the pipe crane more symmetrical and simplify the structure.
[0085] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the counterweight assembly 4 is mounted on the movable frame 74.
[0086] In this embodiment, the two first linear drive components 70 are in telescopic cooperation to realize the angle adjustment of the movable frame 74, so as to drive the rotation of the counterweight assembly 4 in the vertical plane in the front-rear direction y, thereby changing the position of the center of gravity of the pipe crane.
[0087] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the pipe crane further includes a first support 10 arranged on the movable frame 74, and the counterweight assembly 4 is mounted on the movable frame 74 through the first support 10. For example, the first support 10 can be mounted at a position close to the outer side of the movable frame 74 in the left-right direction x, and the counterweight assembly 4 can be located in the region outside the movable frame 74 and outside the chassis 1, so as to better realize the adjustment of the center of gravity. For example, the main body portion of the first support 10 can have a cuboid or trapezoidal structure.
[0088] This embodiment can conveniently realize the installation and dismounting of the counterweight assembly 4 and the combination of multiple counterweights 41 by installing the counterweight assembly 4 on the movable frame 74 through the first support 10.
[0089] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the counterweight assembly 4 includes two counterweights 41, as shown in Figure 11 , one side of the counterweight 41 is provided with a first lug plate set 42, as shown in Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the first support 10 is provided with a second lug plate set 102 on both sides in the front-rear direction y, and the second lug plate set 102 is connected with the first lug plate set 42 to install the counterweight 41 on the first support 10. For example, the second lug plate set 102 is detachably connected with the first lug plate set 42, and the counterweight 41 can have a cuboid structure.
[0090] This embodiment can conveniently connect the two counterweights 41 on both sides of the first support 10 in the front-rear direction y and improve the connection reliability.
[0091] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 11 , the first lug plate set 42 includes multiple first lug plates 42' arranged at intervals in the height direction z, as shown in Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the second lug plate set 102 includes multiple second lug plates 102' arranged at intervals in the height direction z, and the multiple first lug plates 42' are connected with the multiple second lug plates 102' one by one.
[0092] This embodiment can improve the connection reliability by arranging multiple connection points between the counterweight 41 and the first support 10.
[0093] In some embodiments, the second lug plate set 102 is rotatably connected with the first lug plate set 42 in a plane perpendicular to the height direction z. For example, the first lug plate 42' is rotatably connected with the second lug plate 102' at the corresponding position through a pin shaft extending in the height direction z.
[0094] As shown in Figure 17 , the angle between the two counterweights 41 is expanded to 180°, so that the counterweight 41 does not exceed the outer edge of the movable frame 74 in the left-right direction x, and in this retracted state, the counterweight 41 is parallel to the first support 10. Thus, during the travel of the pipe hoisting machine, if the travel space is narrow, the counterweight 41 can be prevented from colliding with other objects, so as to improve the passability of the pipe hoisting machine and improve the travel safety. During operation, the two counterweights 41 can be adjusted to an included angle less than 180°, at which time the counterweight 41 is at an angle to the first support 10.
[0095] The embodiment can further adjust the gravity center by changing the included angle between the two counterweights 41 on the basis of rotating the counterweight assembly 4 in the vertical plane in which the front-rear direction y lies by the second adjusting assembly 9 to change the attitude, so that the gravity center of the pipe lifting machine can be more flexibly adjusted according to actual operation requirements.
[0096] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 9 The first support 10 is provided with two first hinge seats 101 in the middle region of the top along the front-rear direction y, as shown in Figure 11 The top of the counterweight 41 is provided with a second hinge seat 411, and the pipe lifting machine further comprises two second linear driving components 40, the two ends of the second linear driving components 40 are connected with the first hinge seat 101 and the second hinge seat 411 respectively, and are used for driving the counterweight 41 to rotate.
[0097] For example, the second linear driving component 40 can be an electric push rod, a hydraulic cylinder or an air cylinder, etc. The second linear driving component 40 can flexibly and conveniently adjust the angle of the counterweight 41 relative to the first support 10 by telescoping, so as to adjust the gravity center position of the pipe lifting machine and improve the stability of the pipe lifting machine when working on a slope.
[0098] In some embodiments, the pipe lifting machine further comprises a luffing mechanism 8 for luffing the boom 2, and the luffing mechanism 8 and the counterweight assembly 4 are both mounted on the same movable frame 74, and in the left-right direction x, the mounting region of the luffing mechanism 8 is located on the inner side of the mounting region of the counterweight assembly 4. Among them, the luffing mechanism 8 and the counterweight assembly 4 are mounted on the movable frame 74 away from the boom 2.
[0099] The embodiment mounts the luffing mechanism 8 and the counterweight assembly 4 on the same movable frame 74, can simultaneously adjust the angles of the luffing mechanism 8 and the counterweight assembly 4 by the second adjusting assembly 9, can reduce the difficulty of adjusting and controlling, and simplify the structure. Moreover, the luffing mechanism 8 is located on the side away from the boom 2, which is beneficial to applying a luffing force to the boom 2.
[0100] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 4 The pipe lifting machine further comprises a luffing mechanism 8 for luffing the boom 2, and the luffing mechanism 8 comprises a third linear driving component 81 and a third hinge seat 82, the third hinge seat 82 is mounted on the movable frame 74, the center line of the third linear driving component 81 is located in the central plane of the boom 2, the first end of the third linear driving component 81 is connected to the third hinge seat 82, and the second end of the third linear driving component 81 is connected to the boom 2.
[0101] For example, the third linear driving component 81 can be a hydraulic cylinder, which can provide a larger driving force during the luffing, or the third linear driving component 81 can also be a pneumatic cylinder or an electric push rod, etc. The bottom end of the third linear driving component 81 is connected to the third hinged seat 82, and the top end is connected to the top end of the boom 2, which is used to provide driving force for the luffing of the boom 2 through the telescopic extension.
[0102] This embodiment uses the third linear driving component 81 to realize the luffing of the boom 2, which can eliminate the need to set the luffing wire rope, can reduce the structural complexity related to the luffing function, and improve the reliability of the luffing function. Moreover, the third linear driving component 81 has better rigidity compared with the wire rope, which can improve the accuracy of the luffing angle control. In addition, the telescopic limit position of the third linear driving component 81 can limit the limit position of the luffing of the boom 2, and there is no need to additionally set the limiting device for the luffing of the boom 2. Moreover, the bottom end of the third linear driving component 81 is hinged to the movable frame 74 through the third hinged seat 82, which facilitates the installation and leveling of the third linear driving component 81.
[0103] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 1, the pipe crane further comprises a luffing mechanism 8 for luffing the boom 2. The luffing mechanism 8 comprises a second support 83 and a winch mechanism 84.

[0104] In some embodiments, the second support 83 can comprise two support side plates, and the winch mechanism 84 can be installed between the two support side plates.

[0105] This embodiment realizes the luffing through the winch mechanism 84 cooperating with the luffing wire rope 85, which can reduce the installation accuracy requirement along the length direction y between the luffing mechanism 8 and the boom 2. Even if there is a position deviation, since the luffing wire rope 85 is a flexible member, it can prevent the boom 2 from being subjected to a large load deviation. When the movable frame 74 rotates, the second support 83, the winch mechanism 84 and the luffing wire rope 85 are adjusted in angle, which can prevent the luffing wire rope 85 from being twisted, can improve the service life of the luffing wire rope 85, and does not affect the hoisting operation during the leveling operation.

[0111] Because the width of the track 13 is greater than the width of the track frame 12, it is difficult to install the first mounting plate 71, and by setting the extension plate 121, the first mounting plate 71 can be conveniently erected on the two extension plates 121, and the structure of the first mounting plate 71 can be simplified, and the triangular frame 72 can be located outside the track 13.
[0112] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 5 to 7 The chassis 1 includes a vehicle frame 11 and two track frames 12, and the two track frames 12 are respectively connected to the vehicle frame 11 on both sides along the left-right direction x, and the outside of the track frame 12 is surrounded by the track 13.

[0115] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the movable frame 74 includes a mounting beam 741 connected with the arm frame 2 and the first linear driving component 70, and a triangular plate 742 mounted on the inner side of the mounting beam 741 along the left-right direction x, and the top corner opposite to the connecting side of the triangular plate 742 is provided with a shaft 76 extending along the left-right direction x and rotatably mounted on the second mounting plate 75'.
[0116] In the second adjusting assembly 9, as shown in Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the mounting beam 741 extends along the front-rear direction y, and the mounting beam 741 as a whole is in an inverted U shape, and the top of the triangular frame 72 can be embedded in the inverted U-shaped structure and hinged with the mounting beam 741.

[0118] As shown in Figure 13 , the bottom of the mounting beam 741 is provided with a fifth hinged seat 7413 at each end along the front-rear direction y, and the two ends of the first linear driving component 70 are hinged with the fourth hinged seat 73 and the fifth hinged seat 7413 respectively, and the hinged shaft extends along the left-right direction x.
[0119] The movable frame 74 of the embodiment can be hinged with the chassis 1, the longitudinal beam 21 and the first linear driving component 70 at the same time, and can also be mounted on the vehicle frame 11 to improve the mounting stability, thereby improving the reliability and precision of leveling.
[0120] As shown in Figures 5 to 7As shown, the fourth hinge seats 73 are arranged on the first mounting plate 71 on both sides of the triangular frame 72. The second hinge seats 411 are arranged on the bottom of the mounting beam 741 at both ends in the front-rear direction y.

[0121] As shown in Figure 9 , Figure 10 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 , the third mounting plate 743 is arranged on the top corner of the triangular plate 742 opposite the connecting side. The shaft 76 is arranged at the top corner of the triangular plate 742 through the third mounting plate 743 and passes through the second hole 751 on the second mounting plate 75'. The second mounting plate 75' is arranged on the side away from the connecting beam 75 and is screwed on the end of the shaft 76 with the nut 77 to fix the movable frame 74 to the vehicle frame 11.
[0122] The movable frame 74 of this embodiment can be hingedly connected to the triangular frame 72, the longitudinal beam 21 and the first linear driving component 70, and can also be mounted on the vehicle frame 11 to improve the stability of the installation, thereby improving the reliability and accuracy of the leveling.
[0123] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 4 , the lifting mechanism 3 is arranged at the bottom area of the boom 2 to drive the lifting hook 6 through the lifting wire 5.
[0124] Among them, the lifting mechanism 3 can be arranged between the two longitudinal beams 21, which includes a lifting motor and a winding drum. One end of the lifting wire 5 is wound on the winding drum, and the other end passes from the area at the top between the two longitudinal beams 21 to the outside of the boom 2 and is connected to the lifting hook 6.
[0125] This embodiment fixes the lifting mechanism 3 on the boom 2. When the boom 2 adjusts the angle in the longitudinal plane in the front-rear direction y, the lifting mechanism 3 can directly change the angle with the boom 2, which can ensure the smooth lifting operation. Moreover, arranging the lifting mechanism 3 at the bottom area of the boom 2 can provide a larger lifting driving force through the lifting wire 5.
[0126] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 14 to 16 , when the pipe lifting machine is on a slope, the first adjusting assembly 7 is configured to adjust the boom 2 to a vertical state, and the second adjusting assembly 9 is configured to adjust the counterweight assembly 4 and the luffing mechanism 8 to a state adapted to the boom 2.
[0127] When the crane is working on a slope, if the jib 2 is inclined relative to the vertical plane, the load will easily cause the jib 2 to be subjected to side load. By adjusting the jib 2 to be vertical through the first adjusting assembly 7, the jib 2 can be prevented from being subjected to side load, so as to avoid deformation or damage of the jib 2. At this time, the angle between the central plane of the jib 2 and the chassis 1 is not 90°. When the crane is working on an uphill slope, the included angle between the jib 2 and the front part of the chassis 1 is acute. When the crane is working on a downhill slope, the included angle between the jib 2 and the front part of the chassis 1 is obtuse.
[0128] Correspondingly, in order to ensure smooth crane operation, after the jib 2 is adjusted in the vertical plane in the front-rear direction, the luffing mechanism 8 is also rotated to the same angle, so as to prevent the luffing mechanism 8 from being twisted and prevent the jib 2 from being subjected to side load by exerting luffing and lifting forces in the central plane of the jib 2. Moreover, the counterweight assembly 4 is also rotated to the same angle as the luffing mechanism 8, so as to adjust the center of gravity of the pipe crane.
[0129] In the leveling state of this embodiment, when the mountain pipe crane special machine is driving on a slope or working, the jib 2 can be maximally prevented from being damaged due to side load and the whole machine can be prevented from being unstable due to large torque, so as to ensure the safety, reliability and stability of the crane on the slope.
[0130] In some embodiments, the first adjusting assembly 7 and the second adjusting assembly 9 are synchronously adjusted.
[0131] This embodiment can synchronously adjust the crane-related mechanisms, prevent the steel wire rope connected between the luffing mechanism 8 and the jib 2 from being twisted, improve the service life of the steel wire rope, and not affect the load operation when leveling operation is performed. Or when the third linear driving part 81 is used to drive luffing, the third linear driving part 81 can be prevented from being subjected to side load, so as to ensure smooth luffing operation.
[0132] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 14 to 16 the jib 2 is rotated in the vertical plane in the front-rear direction y around the first hinge shaft A, the luffing mechanism 8 and the counterweight assembly 4 are rotated in the vertical plane in the front-rear direction y around the second hinge shaft B, the first hinge shaft A and the second hinge shaft B both extend along the left-right direction x and the center lines thereof coincide.
[0133] This embodiment can keep the relative positions of the jib 2 and the luffing mechanism 8 unchanged when they are leveled to the same angle, ensure safe crane operation, and synchronously adjust the counterweight assembly 4 and the luffing mechanism 8 to the same angle, so as to further ensure the safety of crane operation by adjusting the center of gravity.
[0134] In some embodiments, the adjusting range of the first adjusting assembly 7 and the second adjusting assembly 9 is -30° to +30° based on the direction perpendicular to the chassis 1.
[0135] The embodiment adjusts the arm support 2, the luffing mechanism 8 and the counterweight assembly 4 within the range of ±30° of the reference direction, can limit the leveling angle within a predetermined range, avoid the large change of the gravity center distribution of the pipe lifting machine caused by the too large leveling angle, and can improve the safety of the crane operation.
[0136] The working principle of the embodiment of the present application is as follows: during the crane construction on the mountain large slope, the arm support 2 is leveled by the first adjusting assembly 7, and the luffing mechanism 8 and the counterweight assembly 4 are leveled by the second adjusting assembly 9, so as to realize the leveling within the range of ±30° according to the slope angle. The first adjusting assembly 7 and the second adjusting assembly 9 can be leveled synchronously during the leveling, so as to ensure that the central plane of the arm support 2 and the central plane of the third linear driving part 81 always coincide. After the leveling is completed, the lifting operation is carried out, at this time, the arm support lifting will not be affected by the side load, and the whole machine will not be affected by the torque, so as to ensure the safety, reliability and stability of the slope lifting.
[0137] The above is only an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, and is not used to limit the present disclosure. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present disclosure shall be included in the protection scope of the present disclosure.
