Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of cable transportation technology, and more specifically to an auxiliary transport frame for cable reels. Background Technology

[0002] Cable reels are reels that provide cable winding functions for industrial and mining enterprises. They are currently widely used in many industries such as oil fields and mines, construction, machinery manufacturing, scientific research, ports and docks, shopping malls, hotels, and road and bridge construction.

[0003] In the construction of various building projects, cables are among the most commonly used and consumed consumable materials. Cables are typically transported by truck in the form of cable reels. Depending on the cable type and length, the diameter and weight of the cable reels vary significantly, with large-diameter reels often being extremely heavy. The transportation of cable reels (with cables wound around them) presents challenges in unloading and securing them. Large-diameter cable reels, similar to steel coils, are typically secured longitudinally on a frame. Therefore, during transport, when the vehicle brakes, the cable reels may collide with the frame due to inertia, potentially detaching and causing a safety accident.

[0004] Therefore, how to achieve convenient transportation of cable reels and reduce safety hazards during transportation has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an auxiliary transport frame for cable reels to solve the technical problems of difficult and dangerous cable reel transportation.

[0006] The technical solution adopted in this invention is as follows: an auxiliary transport frame for cable reels, including a base and rocker arms. The base has longitudinally extending receiving grooves at both ends of its lateral direction. The receiving grooves contain two rocker arms arranged in the longitudinal direction. The rocker arms are rotatably connected to the base via rotating shafts, and the axes of the two rotating shafts are located between the centers of gravity of the two rocker arms.

[0007] The rocker includes a longitudinal plate, a limiting plate, and supporting rollers. The longitudinal plate has a longitudinally extending mounting groove, and a plurality of supporting rollers are spaced apart in the mounting groove along the longitudinal direction. The limiting plate is fixedly connected to one end of two longitudinal plates that are far apart from each other and is located on both sides of the mounting groove laterally.

[0008] Preferably, a positioning post is fixedly connected to the lower part of the two longitudinal plates at opposite ends, so that the upper surface of the longitudinal plates in their natural state is coplanar with the upper surface of the base.

[0009] Preferably, the base has a ramp at one or both longitudinal ends.

[0010] Preferably, the slope surface makes an angle of 15° with the horizontal direction.

[0011] Preferably, 6 to 8 support rollers are installed at equal intervals along the longitudinal direction in the mounting groove.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0013] This invention utilizes the lever principle, with two rocker arms longitudinally housed in accommodating grooves at both ends of the base. The rocker arms are rotatably connected to the base via rotating shafts, with the axes of the two shafts positioned between the centers of gravity of the two rocker arms. This allows the two rocker arms to mirror each other under the same force. When the cable reel moves directly above the two rocker arms, gravity causes the ends of the two rocker arms that are furthest apart to tilt upwards, allowing the cable reel to descend and contact the support rollers mounted on the rocker arms, thus providing radial support. When the cable reel moves longitudinally due to inertia, the pressure of the cable reel on the support rollers drives them to rotate. This rotation transforms the horizontal rolling motion of the cable reel into circumferential rotation, stabilizing the cable reel between the two rocker arms and preventing it from falling off, thereby preventing safety accidents.

[0029] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. These embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0032] Furthermore, in the description of this invention, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0033] Examples, such as Figures 1-8As shown, an auxiliary transport frame for cable reels is used to fix cable reels during transportation and prevent safety accidents. The auxiliary transport frame includes a base 10 and rocker arms 20. The base 10 is horizontally arranged in the longitudinal direction, and each of the two transverse ends of the base 10 is provided with a longitudinally extending receiving groove 11. The receiving groove 11 contains two rocker arms 20 arranged in the longitudinal direction. The rocker arms 20 are rotatably connected to the base 10 through a rotating shaft 30, and the axes of the two rotating shafts 30 are located between the centers of gravity of the two rocker arms 20.

[0034] The rocker 20 includes a longitudinal plate 21, a limiting plate 22, and supporting rollers 23. The longitudinal plate 21 is housed in a receiving groove 11 along the longitudinal direction, and the longitudinal plate 21 is provided with a longitudinally extending mounting groove 24. There are multiple supporting rollers 23, and the multiple supporting rollers 23 are spaced apart in the mounting groove 24 along the longitudinal direction. The limiting plate 22 is fixedly connected to one end of two longitudinal plates 21 that are far apart from each other and is located on both sides of the mounting groove 24 laterally.

[0035] This application utilizes the lever principle, longitudinally accommodating two rocker arms 20 within the receiving grooves 11 at both transverse ends of the base 10. The rocker arms 20 are rotatably connected to the base 10 via rotating shafts 30, with the axes of the two shafts 30 positioned between the centers of gravity of the two rocker arms 20. This allows the two rocker arms 20 to mirror each other under the same force. When the cable reel 40 moves directly above the two rocker arms 20, under the influence of gravity, the ends of the two rocker arms 20 that are furthest apart will tilt upwards, causing the cable reel 40 to descend and engage with the rocker arms 20. The installed support rollers 23 abut against each other, achieving radial support for the cable reel 40. When the cable reel 40 moves longitudinally under inertia, the support rollers 23 can rotate freely, causing the pressure of the cable reel 40 on the support rollers 23 to drive the support rollers 23 to rotate. The rotation of the support rollers 23 will change the horizontal rolling of the cable reel 40 into circumferential rotation, thereby stabilizing the cable reel 40 between the two rocker plates 20, preventing the cable reel 40 from falling off, and thus preventing safety accidents.

[0036] It should be noted that: in this embodiment, the longitudinal direction refers to Figure 8 The double arrows in the image refer to the horizontal direction. Figure 8 The direction of the single arrow in the image.

[0037] Specific embodiments, such as Figures 1-8As shown, an auxiliary transport frame for cable reels is used to fix cable reels during transportation and prevent safety accidents. The auxiliary transport frame includes a base 10 and four rocker arms 20. The base 10 is horizontally arranged in the longitudinal direction, and each of the two transverse ends of the base 10 is provided with a receiving groove 11 with an open top. The receiving groove 11 extends in the longitudinal direction, and each receiving groove 11 contains two rocker arms 20. The two rocker arms 20 are linearly arranged in the longitudinal direction within the receiving groove 11, that is, one rocker arm 20 is arranged parallel to the transverse end of one rocker arm 20. The middle position of the rocker arm 20 is rotatably connected to the base 10 through a rotating shaft 30, so that the rocker arm 20 can rotate in the vertical plane around the axis of the rotating shaft 30, and the axes of the two rotating shafts 30 are located between the centers of gravity of the two rocker arms 20, so that in the natural state, the ends of the two rocker arms 20 that are far apart from each other sink into the receiving groove 11.

[0038] The rocker 20 includes a longitudinal plate 21, a limiting plate 22, and a supporting roller 23. The longitudinal plate 21 is housed in a receiving groove 11 along the longitudinal direction, and the vertical dimension of the longitudinal plate 21 is smaller than the groove depth of the receiving groove 11. The middle part of the longitudinal plate 21 is rotatably connected to the base 10 through a rotating shaft 30. When the upper surface of the longitudinal plate 21 is in a horizontal state, the upper surface of the longitudinal plate 21 is coplanar with the upper surface of the base 10. A longitudinally extending mounting groove 24 is provided on the longitudinal plate 21. The support rollers 23 are multiple and spaced longitudinally within the mounting groove 24. They provide radial support for the cable reel 40 and convert the longitudinal rolling of the cable reel 40 into circumferential rotation through the rotation of the support rollers 23. Two limiting plates 22 are fixedly connected to the ends of the two longitudinal plates 21 that are far apart from each other. The two limiting plates 22 are located on opposite sides of the mounting groove 24, providing axial limitation for the cable reel 40 directly above the two rocker arms 20, i.e., limiting the cable reel 40 in the lateral direction. Simultaneously, the two limiting plates 22 also provide counterweight to the longitudinal plates 21, ensuring that the weight of the ends of the two rocker arms 20 that are far apart is greater than the weight of the ends that are close together. This allows the ends of the two rocker arms 20 to sink into the receiving groove 11 under natural conditions, facilitating the horizontal rolling of the cable reel 40 above the two rocker arms 20.

[0039] In other embodiments, such as Figure 4 , Figure 6As shown, a positioning post 25 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the two longitudinal plates 21 at one end away from each other. The positioning post 25 is set in the vertical direction and is fixedly connected to the longitudinal plates 21 perpendicularly. The axial dimension of the positioning post 25 is equal to the distance between the lower surface of the longitudinal plate 21 and the bottom surface of the receiving groove 11 in the horizontal state, so that the upper surface of the longitudinal plate 21 in the natural state is coplanar with the upper surface of the base 10, thereby facilitating the horizontal rolling of the cable reel 40 above the two rocker plates 20. At the same time, the positioning post 25 can also provide counterweight for the longitudinal plates 21.

[0040] In other embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 5 As shown, a ramp 12 is provided at one or both ends of the longitudinal direction of the base 10 to facilitate the cable reel 40 to roll up and down the base 10.

[0041] Preferably, the slope 12 has an angle of 15° with the horizontal direction.

[0042] In other embodiments, such as Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, 6 to 8 support rollers 23 are installed at equal intervals along the longitudinal direction in the mounting groove 24, and the highest point of the support rollers 23 is coplanar with the upper surface of the longitudinal plate 21.

[0043] The auxiliary transport frame used in this application is used as follows:

[0044] In use, the base 10 is placed longitudinally on the transport vehicle and fixed with equipment; the cable reel 40 is rolled from the ramp 12 to the top of the rocker 20 by a crane or by manual rolling. The ends of the two rockers 20 that are far apart from each other will rise due to the lever principle and automatically lock the reel body of the cable reel 40. At this time, the horizontal movement of the cable reel 40 is restricted. The cable reel 40 can be fixed by simply binding it to the vehicle body with a rope.

[0045] When the cable reel 40 rolls longitudinally above the two rocker arms 20, the ends of the two rocker arms 20 that are close to each other will descend due to the weight of the cable reel 40 and lock the cable reel 40 longitudinally. At the same time, the limiting plates 22 at the ends of the two rocker arms 20 that are far apart will rise and lock the cable reel 40 laterally. After the cable reel 40 is removed, the rocker arms 20 will automatically return to their horizontal position under the action of gravity.

[0046] The auxiliary transport frame in this application has a low center of gravity, and seven support rollers 23 are linearly distributed along the longitudinal direction on the rocker 20. The function of the support rollers 23 is to relieve stress. During the transportation of the cable reel 40, the weight of the cable reel 40 (with cables wound on it) and the unevenness of the road surface will cause irregular inertial motion. Traditional cable frames have a high center of gravity and are rigidly fixed, making it easy for the cable frame and cable reel to tip over together. The auxiliary transport frame in this application, while abandoning the rigid fixing method, converts the horizontal kinetic energy of the cable reel 40 into the angular kinetic energy of the cable reel 40.

[0047] The support rollers 23 of the rocker 20 are spaced apart in the longitudinal direction, and the rocker 20 and the base 10 have an inclined angle. When the cable reel 40 needs to move, it must overcome its own gravitational potential energy. The gravitational potential energy of the cable reel 40 will be converted into the angular kinetic energy of the cable reel 40 under the action of the support rollers 23. The angular kinetic energy of the cable reel 40 will cause the cable reel 40 to rotate relative to the auxiliary transport frame, but the relative position remains unchanged. That is, there is no relative displacement between the cable reel 40 and the auxiliary transport frame, which greatly reduces the occurrence of problems such as loose fixing elements and collision between the cable reel 40 and the base 10.

[0048] Compared with the prior art, this application has at least the following beneficial technical effects:

[0049] The auxiliary transport frame of this application has a simple design structure, readily available processing materials, flexible assembly and disassembly, and strong connections. It can be reused multiple times, which can not only reduce transportation costs and safety hazards, but also improve work efficiency and quality.

[0050] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention, and these improvements and substitutions should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
