Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cabinet transportation and installation, and particularly relates to a system for assisting cabinet installation by using track transportation. Background Art

[0002] In the development of industrial production, many industrial execution devices and electrical control devices are applied to production scenarios. Among them, the cabinet is an important part of the electrical system, which is the self-supporting shell of electrical equipment and plays roles such as storage, protection, and fixation. The cabinet needs to be placed on a special foundation. Some cabinets are large in volume and heavy in weight. If only manual handling is used during installation, various hard tools such as crowbars are also needed, which is extremely easy to damage the cabinet body and appearance, and the installation efficiency is low, with potential safety hazards. If large machinery is used for handling and installation, an operating space needs to be reserved in the construction workshop for installing the cabinet, and equipment such as overhead cranes is used for hoisting. In this way, at least one wall of the workshop can only be built after the cabinet is installed, which brings many inconveniences to the main construction of the building.

[0003] It can be seen that the existing cabinet installation solutions still have room for urgent improvement, and should be optimized to achieve a more flexible and convenient installation method, and the installed equipment structure is more simple and easy to use, without affecting the main construction of the workshop building. Therefore, a more reasonable technical solution needs to be proposed to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To at least overcome one of the above-mentioned defects, the present invention proposes a system for assisting cabinet installation by using track transportation. The cabinet is transported to a position near the installation foundation by laying a transportation track on the ground, and then the cabinet is placed on the foundation through directional displacement. The transportation route is simple and the transportation process is fast, improving the convenience of cabinet transportation and installation.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the system for assisting cabinet installation disclosed by the present invention can adopt the following technical solutions:

[0006] A system for assisting cabinet installation by using track transportation includes a traveling track embedded in the ground. A track vehicle is arranged on the traveling track. A cabinet carrying component is arranged above the track vehicle. The cabinet carrying component includes a lateral traveling component for laterally traveling to move the cabinet and a lifting component for lifting the cabinet. The lateral traveling component is connected to the track vehicle through a deflection arm, and the deflection arm is used to switch the traveling direction of the lateral traveling component relative to the track vehicle. A receiving component for receiving the lateral traveling component is also arranged at the track vehicle. The receiving component includes a lifting plate group that moves up and down relative to the track vehicle. When the lateral traveling component is located on the lifting plate group, the lifting plate group drives the lateral traveling component to move up and down.

[0007] The above - disclosed system for assisting cabinet installation transports the entire railcar and the cabinet to a position near the installation foundation through a traveling track. After arriving, it stops, and the cabinet is displaced to the installation foundation by the lateral traveling assembly. Then, the cabinet is lifted to a position higher than the installation foundation by the lifting assembly. The lateral traveling assembly continues to travel between the installation foundations, and then the lifting assembly lowers the cabinet to complete the installation.

[0008] Further, in the present invention, the lateral traveling assembly is used to drive the cabinet to move from the traveling track to the installation foundation. The specific structure of the lateral traveling assembly can be configured in a variety of feasible options and is not uniquely limited. Here, an optimization is carried out and one feasible option is proposed: The lateral traveling assembly includes a commutation substrate connected to the deflection arm. The middle of the commutation substrate is hinged to the deflection arm and is driven by the deflection arm to get on or off the vehicle on one side of the railcar; a displacement plate is arranged on the commutation substrate, and a displacement driving structure is arranged between the displacement plate and the commutation substrate and is used to drive the displacement plate to move away from or close to the commutation substrate. When adopting such a scheme, the lower end of the deflection arm is hinged to the railcar, and the upper end of the deflection arm is connected to the commutation substrate. The deflection arm can adopt a telescopic arm, such as a hydraulic rod, which can provide a certain thrust during the lateral movement of the commutation substrate, so that the commutation substrate can get on or off the vehicle from one side of the railcar or from the other side.

[0009] Furthermore, the displacement plate can continue to travel on the basis of the commutation substrate, increasing the lateral traveling distance, so as to achieve transportation and installation within a larger range. The moving structure of the displacement plate is not uniquely limited. Here, an optimization is carried out and one feasible option is proposed: The number of the displacement plates is several, and a sliding fit or a displacement driving structure is arranged between adjacent displacement plates. When adopting such a scheme, the displacement driving structure can be connected to adjacent displacement plates or to the commutation substrate and the displacement plate, ultimately maximizing the position movement of the displacement plate.

[0010] Further, in the present invention, the displacement driving structure can be used to push the displacement plate to move back and forth. The specific structure is not uniquely limited. Here, an optimization is carried out and some feasible options are proposed: The displacement driving structure includes a gear - rack structure, a telescopic driving rod structure or a sprocket driving structure.

[0011] Furthermore, during the movement of the displacement plate, in order to improve the convenience of movement, an optimization is carried out on the structure of the displacement plate here and one feasible option is proposed: A traveling mechanism is arranged below the displacement plate. When adopting such a scheme, the traveling mechanism can adopt traveling wheels, and the traveling wheels are arranged in two columns, corresponding to the lifting plate groups in the front and rear of the railcar respectively.

[0012] Furthermore, the lifting plate group drives the lateral traveling assembly to lift after being set. Specifically, the following feasible option is optimized and proposed: The lifting plate groups are respectively arranged on the front side and the rear side of the rail vehicle. When the lateral traveling assembly reaches the rail vehicle and gets on the vehicle, the traveling mechanism travels onto the lifting plate group and is supported by the lifting plate group. When such a solution is adopted, the lateral traveling assembly is located directly above the rail vehicle, which is convenient for support and stable forward movement.

[0013] Furthermore, the structure of the lifting plate group is not uniquely limited. Here, the following feasible option is optimized and proposed: The lifting plate group includes a support plate, and the support plate is connected and cooperated with a lifting structure arranged on the rail vehicle and is driven by the lifting structure to rise or fall. When such a solution is adopted, the lifting structure can adopt a hydraulic rod structure.

[0014] Furthermore, in order to maintain the stability of the rail vehicle and facilitate the movement of the lateral traveling assembly, the following feasible option is optimized and proposed: Support feet are also arranged on the support plate. When the support plate descends, the support feet are clamped with the traveling track to keep the rail vehicle parked stably. When such a solution is adopted, the support feet can adopt a folding structure for retraction or be integrally formed with the support plate.

[0015] Furthermore, in the present invention, the lifting assembly includes a lifting plate for placing the cabinet, and also includes a hydraulic lifting structure. The hydraulic lifting structure is connected to the lateral traveling assembly and drives the lifting plate to rise or fall.

[0016] Furthermore, in order to improve the accuracy during installation, the following feasible option is optimized and proposed: A detection assembly is also arranged on the rail vehicle. The detection assembly at least includes a front detection unit and a rear detection unit. The front detection unit and the rear detection unit are respectively used to detect the alignment of the front part and the rear part of the rail vehicle with the installation foundation during traveling. When such a solution is adopted, the installation foundation is two relatively arranged installation columns, corresponding to the front detection unit and the rear detection unit respectively. When the front and rear are aligned, the lateral traveling assembly can directly transport the cabinet to the installation foundation and install it correctly.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, some beneficial effects of the disclosed technical solution of the present invention include:

[0018] The present invention transports the cabinet along the traveling track set on the ground, and performs fixed-point displacement and installation of the cabinet through the lateral traveling assembly, simplifies the composition structure of the installation system, and improves the convenience and efficiency of cabinet transportation and installation.

[0029] Embodiment

[0030] Such as Figures 1 to 5As shown in the figure, a system for assisting the installation of a cabinet using an orbital conveyor includes a traveling track 1 embedded in the ground. A rail vehicle 2 is arranged on the traveling track 1. Above the rail vehicle 2, there is a cabinet 12 bearing assembly. The cabinet 12 bearing assembly includes a lateral traveling assembly for laterally traveling to move the cabinet 12 and a lifting assembly for lifting the cabinet 12. The lateral traveling assembly is connected to the rail vehicle 2 through a deflection arm 5. The deflection arm 5 is used to switch the traveling direction of the lateral traveling assembly relative to the rail vehicle 2. At the position of the rail vehicle 2, there is also a receiving assembly for receiving the lateral traveling assembly. The receiving assembly includes a lifting plate group that can be lifted and lowered relative to the rail vehicle 2. When the lateral traveling assembly is located on the lifting plate group, the lifting plate group drives the lateral traveling assembly to move up and down.

[0031] In the system for assisting the installation of the cabinet 12 disclosed in this embodiment, the entire rail vehicle 2 and the cabinet 12 are transported to a position near the installation foundation 13 through the traveling track 1. After arriving, stop the vehicle and drive the cabinet 12 to be displaced to the installation foundation 13 through the lateral traveling assembly. Then, lift the cabinet 12 to a position higher than the installation foundation 13 through the lifting assembly. After the lateral traveling assembly continues to travel between the installation foundations 13, the lifting assembly lowers the cabinet 12 to complete the installation.

[0032] Preferably, in this embodiment, the installation foundation 13 includes two upright installation platforms or columns, with a certain gap formed between them. The width of the gap is greater than the width of the lateral traveling assembly.

[0033] In this embodiment, the lateral traveling assembly is used to drive the cabinet 12 to move from the traveling track 1 to the installation foundation 13. The specific structure of the lateral traveling assembly can be constructed into various feasible options, and it is not uniquely limited. This embodiment is optimized and one of the feasible options is adopted: The lateral traveling assembly includes a commutation substrate 6 that is connected to the deflection arm 5 in a cooperative manner. The middle of the commutation substrate 6 is hinged to the deflection arm 5 and is driven by the deflection arm 5 to get on or off the vehicle from one side of the rail vehicle 2. A displacement plate 7 is arranged on the commutation substrate 6. A displacement driving structure 9 is arranged between the displacement plate 7 and the commutation substrate 6 and is used to drive the displacement plate 7 to move away from or close to the commutation substrate 6. When adopting such a scheme, the lower end of the deflection arm 5 is hinged to the rail vehicle 2, and the upper end of the deflection arm 5 is connected to the commutation substrate 6. The deflection arm 5 can adopt a telescopic arm, such as a hydraulic rod, which can provide a certain thrust during the lateral movement of the commutation substrate 6 to enable the commutation substrate 6 to get on or off the vehicle from one side of the rail vehicle 2 or from the other side.

[0034] Preferably, the deflection arm 5 adopts a hydraulic telescopic rod.

[0035] The displacement plate 7 can continue to move forward on the basis of the reversing substrate 6, increasing the lateral travel distance, so as to achieve transportation and installation within a larger range. The moving structure of the displacement plate 7 is not uniquely defined. In this embodiment, it is optimized and one of the feasible options is adopted: the number of the displacement plates 7 is several, and the adjacent displacement plates 7 are slidably attached to each other or provided with a displacement driving structure 9 for cooperation. When adopting such a scheme, the displacement driving structure 9 can be connected to adjacent displacement plates 7 or to the reversing substrate 6 and the displacement plate 7, ultimately maximizing the position movement of the displacement plate 7.

[0036] Preferably, in this embodiment, the displacement driving structure 9 can be used to push the displacement plate 7 to move forward and backward. The specific structure is not uniquely defined. Here, it is optimized and some of the feasible options are proposed: the displacement driving structure 9 includes a gear-rack structure, a telescopic driving rod structure or a sprocket driving structure.

[0037] During the movement of the displacement plate 7, in order to improve the convenience of movement, the structure of the displacement plate 7 is optimized in this embodiment and one of the feasible options is adopted: a traveling mechanism 11 is provided below the displacement plate 7. When adopting such a scheme, the traveling mechanism 11 can adopt traveling wheels, and the traveling wheels are arranged in two columns, corresponding to the lifting plate groups on the front side and the rear side of the rail vehicle 2 respectively.

[0038] After the lifting plate groups are arranged, they drive the lateral traveling assembly to lift. Specifically, it is optimized and one of the following feasible options is adopted: the lifting plate groups are respectively arranged on the front side and the rear side of the rail vehicle 2, and when the lateral traveling assembly arrives at or gets on the rail vehicle 2, the traveling mechanism 11 travels onto the lifting plate groups and is supported by the lifting plate groups. When adopting such a scheme, the lateral traveling assembly is located directly above the rail vehicle 2, which is convenient for support and stable forward movement.

[0039] The structure of the lifting plate groups is not uniquely defined. In this embodiment, it is optimized and one of the feasible options is adopted: the lifting plate groups include support plates 3, and the support plates 3 are connected and cooperated with a lifting structure 10 arranged on the rail vehicle 2 and are driven to rise or fall by the lifting structure 10. When adopting such a scheme, the lifting structure 10 can adopt a hydraulic rod structure.

[0040] In order to maintain the stability of the rail vehicle 2 and facilitate the movement of the lateral traveling assembly, this embodiment is optimized and one of the feasible options is adopted: support feet 301 are also provided on the support plates 3. When the support plates 3 descend, they are clamped with the traveling track 1 through the support feet 301 to keep the rail vehicle 2 parked stably. When adopting such a scheme, the support feet 301 can adopt a folding structure for retraction or be integrally formed with the support plates 3.

[0041] In this embodiment, the lifting assembly includes a lifting plate 8 for placing the cabinet 12, and further includes a hydraulic lifting structure which is connected to the lateral traveling assembly and drives the lifting plate 8 to rise or fall.

[0042] In order to improve the accuracy during installation, this embodiment is optimized and one feasible option is adopted: a detection assembly 4 is further provided on the rail vehicle 2. The detection assembly 4 at least includes a front detection unit and a rear detection unit. The front detection unit and the rear detection unit are respectively used to detect the alignment of the front part and the rear part of the rail vehicle 2 with the installation foundation 13 during traveling. When such a solution is adopted, the installation foundation 13 is two relatively arranged installation columns, corresponding to the front detection unit and the rear detection unit respectively. When the front and rear are aligned, the lateral traveling assembly can directly transport the cabinet 12 to the installation foundation 13 and install it correctly.

[0043] The above are the implementation manners listed in this embodiment. However, this embodiment is not limited to the above optional implementation manners. Those skilled in the art can obtain many other implementation manners by arbitrarily combining the above manners. Anyone can obtain various other forms of implementation manners under the inspiration of this embodiment. The above specific implementation manners should not be construed as limiting the protection scope of this embodiment. The protection scope of this embodiment should be defined by the claims.
