Description

Technical Field

[0002] A gantry crane is a heavy-duty piece of equipment commonly used to transport and move heavy objects in ports, docks, and other industrial environments. Through a series of mechanical transmission and control systems, it converts the power of the electric motor into the movement of the boom and hook, thereby lifting, moving, and positioning the load. During the lifting process, the electric motor drives the drum, and the wire rope on the drum is connected to the hook through a pulley block. As the drum rotates, the wire rope is wound up or released, thereby raising or lowering the hook.

[0003] Currently, during operation, the wire rope of a gantry crane is susceptible to friction with the roof of the machine room at the rope outlet, causing wear and tear on the wire rope, which reduces its service life. Furthermore, the wire rope is wound around a drum. During lifting operations, the wire rope on the drum contracts or extends, causing the angle of the wire rope at the rope outlet to change. This further increases friction between the wire rope and the roof of the machine room, which can seriously affect the crane's normal lifting operation.

[0107] As described above, the embodiment of the present invention involves a device and control system for preventing wire rope wear at the rope outlet on the top of a gantry crane, which can solve the problem of damage caused by excessive friction between the crane wire rope 11 and the rope outlet 1 on the top of the machine room. It achieves more comprehensive protection and adjustment functions by dynamically adjusting the position of the wire rope cable drum 12 and the rope outlet position, and combining it with the solution of setting the nylon sleeve 15 and the wear detection mechanism at the rope outlet. For the device for preventing wire rope wear from the rope outlet at the top of the machine room of the gantry crane, its main structure is composed of the support seat 2, the first rotating shaft mechanism 3, the first rotating wheel 4, the first driving mechanism 5 and the fixed base 7, the second rotating shaft mechanism 8, the second rotating wheel 9, and the second driving mechanism 10; wherein, the support seat 2 is used to install and support the entire device, which is arranged at the rope outlet 1 at the top of the machine room, the first rotating shaft mechanism 3 is vertically arranged in the support seat 2, the first rotating wheel 4 is sleeved on the first rotating shaft mechanism 3, and under the action of the first driving mechanism 5, the first rotating shaft mechanism 3 drives the first rotating wheel 4 to rotate on a fixed axis; similarly, the second rotating shaft mechanism 8 is connected to the second rotating wheel 9, and under the action of the second driving mechanism 10, the second rotating shaft mechanism 8 can drive the second rotating wheel 9 to rotate on a fixed axis, and the rotating bearing 17 is provided in the first rotating shaft mechanism 3 and the second rotating shaft mechanism 8. The use of the rotating bearing 17 reduces the friction between the rotating shaft body 16 and the support seat 2 and the fixed base 7, thereby improving the rotation Flexibility; as for the crane wire rope 11, it extends from the cable drum 12, passes through the rope outlet 1 on the top of the machine room, and then passes through the through-hole slideway 6 on the first rotating wheel 4, and then connects to the second rotating wheel 9, and continues to extend outward to connect the sling; when the portal crane performs a lifting operation, when the angle of the wire rope 11 at the rope outlet 1 on the top of the machine room changes, the first rotating wheel 4 and the second rotating wheel 9, respectively, under the action of the first rotating shaft mechanism 3 and the second rotating shaft mechanism 8, combined with the angle change of the wire rope 11 monitored by the servo motor 20 and the absolute encoder 40, perform a single rotation or a common relative rotation, drive the wire rope 11 to swing, change the position of the wire rope 11 in the through-hole slideway 6, so as to adapt to the angle change of the wire rope 11; and the nylon sleeve 15 is provided to further reduce the friction between the wire rope 11 and the rope outlet 1 on the top of the machine room, and the wear detection mechanism can timely detect and warn the wear of the nylon sleeve 15, and replace the nylon sleeve 15 in time to ensure that the wire rope 11 can be used normally. It can be seen that compared with the existing technology, the technical solution involved in the present invention can adapt to the angle changes of the wire rope during the lifting operation, prevent excessive wear of the wire rope at the rope outlet at the top of the gantry crane room, and extend the service life of the wire rope.
