Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of lifting equipment technology, and specifically to a self-locking lifting equipment. Background Technology
[0002] During gearbox assembly, a cylindrical shaft needs to be hoisted, but there isn't a suitable hoisting position. Conventional multi-jaw lifting tools are unsuitable for hoisting cylindrical shafts because they typically hinge the ends of the claws directly to a flat structural member. When hoisting shafts, the claws need to contact the shaft shoulder, which is a certain distance from the shaft end. For traditional multi-jaw lifting tools, this distance is essentially the length of the claw in the vertical direction. In other words, when this distance is less than the distance between the shoulder and the shaft end, the traditional lifting tool is unusable. The claw length significantly limits the hoisting of shafts.
[0003] Therefore, the current hoisting method involves a radial through-hole on one shaft. Typically, a metal rod is inserted horizontally into the oil hole during hoisting, and then the metal rod is hoisted using a hook. The hoisting process is complex and prone to slippage, posing safety hazards and quality risks. Summary of the Invention

[0028] Example 1
[0029] Combined with appendix Figure 1-5 This embodiment proposes a self-locking lifting device, including a lifting device base 100, a pull sleeve 101, and a plurality of hooks 102. Both the lifting device base 100 and the pull sleeve 101 are cylindrical, and the pull sleeve 101 is movably engaged with the inner cavity of the lifting device base 100. A plurality of first connecting seats 111 are provided on the circumferential outer wall of the lifting device base 100, and a plurality of second connecting seats 112 are provided on the circumferential outer wall of the pull sleeve 101. One end of each hook 102 is provided with a connecting hole 113, which is movably engaged with the first connecting seat 111. The hook 102 is also provided with a hinge hole 114, which is hinged to the second connecting seat 112.
[0030] This embodiment of a self-locking lifting device is based on a cylindrical lifting device base 100 and a pull sleeve 101, and a hook 102 is disposed in the circumference of the lifting device base 100 and the pull sleeve 101, so that the end of the shaft component can extend into the inner cavity of the pull sleeve 101, which can achieve a better lifting effect for the shaft component.
[0031] This embodiment presents a self-locking lifting device that, compared to traditional multi-jaw lifting devices, is better suited for lifting shaft-like components. Traditional multi-jaw lifting devices typically use claws with the ends directly hinged to a flat structural member. When lifting shaft-like components, the claws need to contact the shaft shoulder, and there is a certain distance between the shoulder and the end of the shaft. Therefore, for traditional multi-jaw lifting devices, the distance from the end of the claw to the flat structural member is essentially the length of the claw in the height direction.
[0032] Understandably, when the distance from the end of the claw of a multi-claw lifting device to the flat structural member, that is, the length of the claw in the height direction, is less than the distance between the shoulder that mates with the claw and the end of the shaft component, traditional lifting devices are completely unusable. In other words, the length of the claw greatly limits the lifting of shaft components.
[0033] This embodiment completely overcomes the above-mentioned problems by improving the traditional lifting device. It features a cylindrical pull sleeve 101 with hooks 102 circumferentially surrounding the sides of the pull sleeve 101 and the lifting device base 100, allowing the end of the shaft-like component to extend into the inner cavity of the pull sleeve 101. The inner cavity has a certain depth, so the distance between the shoulder that mates with the hook 102 and the end of the shaft-like component does not need to be considered. The portion exceeding the length of the hook 102 will extend into the inner cavity of the pull sleeve 101. In contrast, with traditional hook 102 lifting devices, because the claws are directly hinged to a flat structural member, the end of the shaft-like component, if too long, will directly contact the flat structural member, thus failing to effectively lift shaft-like components.
[0034] Furthermore, based on the design of the pull sleeve 101, a further improvement in this embodiment is the installation of a lifting seat 100, which is also cylindrical and fitted onto the outside of the pull sleeve 101. It is conceivable that, due to the inherent characteristics of shaft components, they are prone to swaying during lifting and transportation. If a traditional multi-jaw lifting tool is used, only the claw tips can contact the shaft shoulder, making it impossible to overcome the swaying during transportation, thus posing a significant risk to the lifting process. In this embodiment, the pull sleeve 101, fitted onto one end of the shaft component, already provides a certain degree of sway limitation. Simultaneously, the lifting seat 100, fitted onto the outside of the pull sleeve 101, further limits the swaying of the pull sleeve 101. Therefore, for shaft components, the pull sleeve 101 and the lifting seat 100 provide a dual sway limitation effect.
[0035] In this embodiment, the connecting hole 113 on the hook 102 is movably engaged with the first connecting seat 111, and the hinge hole 114 is hinged with the second connecting seat 112. When the hook 102 is working, the pull sleeve 101 slides into the lifting seat 100, the hook 102 opens, and after the shaft component is in place, the shaft end extends into the pull sleeve 101, and the hook 102 hooks the shaft shoulder. The shaft component, the pull sleeve 101, and the hook 102 slide downward under the action of gravity. At this time, as long as it is in the lifting state, the hook 102 will not loosen, thus achieving self-locking.
[0036] The self-locking lifting device of this embodiment is suitable for lifting shaft components. It can effectively lock shaft components and can effectively prevent them from falling off by gravity self-locking, thus improving safety.
[0037] Example 2
[0038] Combined with appendix Figure 1-5This embodiment proposes a self-locking lifting device, which can be improved based on the above embodiment as follows: The hook 102 includes a connecting portion 120, which is gradually inclined away from the lifting device base 100 from a high position to a low position along the height direction; the connecting hole 113 is located on the connecting portion 120, and the connecting hole 113 includes a straight slot hole 121 and an inclined slot hole 122 that are interconnected. Both the straight slot hole 121 and the inclined slot hole 122 are used to movably cooperate with the connecting base. The straight slot hole 121 is located at a high position of the connecting portion 120, and the inclined slot hole 122 extends along the inclined direction of the connecting portion 120. This embodiment is one way of setting the hook 102. The connecting portion 120 of the hook 102 is used to connect with the first connecting base 111. The hook 102 needs to be able to open and close, so the shape of the connecting hole 113 is set. The connecting hole 113 includes a straight slot 121 and an oblique slot 122 that are interconnected. When the hook 102 is fully retracted, the straight slot 121 engages with the first connecting seat 111, ensuring that the hook 102 is in a vertical position, thereby achieving a better self-locking effect. The connecting hole 113 also includes the oblique slot 122, which extends along the inclined direction of the connecting part 120, allowing the hook 102 to open when the pull sleeve 101 slides into the lifting seat 100.
[0039] Example 3
[0040] Combined with appendix Figure 1-5 This embodiment proposes a self-locking lifting device, which can be improved based on the above embodiment as follows: A pin 130 is provided on the lifting device base 100, and several limiting grooves 131 are provided on the pull sleeve 101 along the vertical direction. The pin 130 is matched with the limiting grooves 131. This embodiment further provides a pin 130, which matches the limiting grooves 131, to achieve a limited slippage effect between the lifting device base 100 and the pull sleeve 101, further improving safety based on the aforementioned self-locking effect.
[0041] Example 4
[0042] Combined with appendix Figure 1-5This embodiment proposes a self-locking lifting device, which can be improved based on the above embodiment as follows: The pin 130 includes a fixing member 132 fixedly connected to the lifting device base 100. The fixing member 132 is provided with a through hole communicating with the limiting groove 131. It also includes a connector 133. The end of the connector 133 is provided with a connector post 134. The connector post 134 is matched with the through hole and the limiting groove 131. An elastic element is provided between the connector 133 and the fixing member 132. This embodiment is one way of setting the pin 130. The connector 133 utilizes the elastic force of the elastic element to make the connector post 134 always tend to move towards the limiting groove 131, so as to further improve the use effect of the connector 133 and further improve the self-locking effect.
[0043] Example 5
[0044] Combined with appendix Figure 1-5 This embodiment proposes a self-locking lifting device, which can be improved based on the above embodiment as follows: The fixing member 132 includes opposing limiting blocks 135, which form a positioning groove between each other. The plug-in member 133 is provided with a positioning protrusion 136, which is matched with the positioning groove. In this embodiment, the matching of the positioning protrusion 136 with the positioning groove helps to prevent the fixing member 132 and the plug-in member 133 from shaking, ensuring the stability between the fixing member 132 and the plug-in member 133, and thus making the engagement between the pin member 130 and the limiting groove 131 more stable.
[0045] Example 6
[0046] Combined with appendix Figure 1-5 This embodiment proposes a self-locking lifting device, which can be improved on the basis of the above embodiment as follows: the limiting groove 131 is flat and elongated. Since the pin 130 needs to be inserted into the limiting groove 131, the limiting groove 131 is flat and elongated in the circumferential direction of the sleeve 101, which makes it easier for the pin 130 and the limiting groove 131 to cooperate.
[0047] Example 7
[0048] Combined with appendix Figure 1-5This embodiment proposes a self-locking lifting device, which can be improved based on the above embodiment as follows: The hook 102 is provided with a hooking plane 140, and the side of the claw tip near the pull sleeve 101 is provided with a conforming curved surface 141. This embodiment is one way of setting the hook 102, wherein the hooking plane 140 serves a supporting function, used to contact the shoulder of the shaft component, and used to hook the plane position of the shoulder. Since the shaft component is generally cylindrical, the side of the claw tip near the pull sleeve 101 is provided with a conforming curved surface 141 to conform to the outer surface of the shaft component, making the contact between the hook 102 and the shaft component more stable.
[0049] Example 8
[0050] Combined with appendix Figure 1-5 This embodiment proposes a self-locking lifting device, which can be improved based on the above embodiment as follows: A through hole 110 is provided at the end of the pull sleeve 101, and the through hole 110 communicates with the inner cavity of the pull sleeve 101. During the process of the shaft component extending into the pull sleeve 101, the air inside the pull sleeve 101 is compressed, and the air needs time to be expelled; similarly, during the process of the shaft component extending out of the pull sleeve 101, the air flowing into the pull sleeve 101 also needs time. Due to the imbalance of air pressure, the time for inserting or removing the shaft component will be too long, prolonging the overall lifting time. Therefore, a through hole 110 is provided at the end of the pull sleeve 101 to expel air more quickly and achieve faster lifting.
[0051] Example 9
[0052] Combined with appendix Figure 1-5 This embodiment proposes a self-locking lifting device, which can be improved on the basis of the above embodiment as follows: a pin 150 is provided between the connecting hole 113 and the first connecting seat 111, and between the hinge hole 114 and the second connecting seat 112. Both ends of the pin 150 are provided with guide grooves 151, and a snap ring 152 is also included. The snap ring 152 is matched with the guide groove 151.
[0053] Example 10
[0054] Combined with appendix Figure 1-5 This embodiment proposes a self-locking lifting device, which can be improved based on the above embodiment as follows: A lifting mating seat 103 is provided on the lifting device base 100, and the lifting mating seat 103 is used to connect with lifting equipment. In this embodiment, by providing the lifting mating seat 103 on the lifting device base 100, the lifting mating seat 103 can be provided with structures such as mounting holes to ensure that the lifting device base 100 can be connected to lifting equipment such as gantry cranes.
[0055] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above illustratively. This description is not restrictive, and the figures shown are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. Therefore, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the spirit of the present invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
