[0026] The following describes two implementation modes of the present application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] The first implementation method:
[0028] Figure 1-4 A small-sized working crane with a safety alarm device is shown, comprising a moving seat 1, the moving seat 1 is fixedly connected to a supporting cylinder 2, a rotating seat 3 is rotatably connected above the supporting cylinder 2, a supporting arm 4 is fixedly connected above the rotating seat 3, a telescopic arm 5 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the supporting arm 4, a hook 6 is provided below the telescopic arm 5, and the hook 6 is connected to a winding mechanism 7 on the telescopic arm 5 through a steel wire rope;
[0029] A roll support mechanism is installed on the support tube 2, and the roll support mechanism includes a gyro sensor 13 and a support wheel assembly installed in the support tube 2. The support wheel assembly includes a plurality of support wheels 8 arranged on the outside of the moving seat 1, and the support wheel 8 is connected to a swing arm 9. A rotating gear ring 10 rotatably sleeved on the outside of the support tube 2 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the swing arm 9. A first driving gear 11 is meshed on one side of the rotating gear ring 10, and the first driving gear 11 is connected to a first motor 12 installed in the support tube 2;
[0030] Both the first motor 12 and the gyro sensor 13 are electrically connected to the controller 15 . The controller 15 is fixedly connected to a handrail 14 which is fixedly connected to the rotating seat 3 . A buzzer light 16 which is electrically connected to the controller 15 is mounted on the handrail 14 .
[0031] For details, please refer to Figure 2-4When the hook 6 is in the process of lifting heavy objects or moving after lifting, the tilt angle of the crane is monitored in real time through the gyroscope sensor 13. When it is detected that the crane is tilting in a certain direction, the controller 15 starts the first motor 12 and the buzzer light 16. The first motor 12 drives the rotating gear ring 10 to rotate through the first driving gear 11. The rotating gear ring 10 drives the supporting wheel 8 to rotate to the tilted side of the crane through the swing arm 9, and reversely supports the crane, thereby preventing the crane from overturning due to tilting. At the same time, the buzzer light 16 buzzes and flashes to remind the operator to improve the safety of operation.
[0032] Compared with traditional small cranes, the present invention is equipped with a gyroscope sensor 13 and a roll support mechanism to monitor the tilt angle of the crane in real time during the lifting operation. When it is detected that the crane is tilting to one side, the support wheel 8 in the roll support mechanism moves to the tilted side under the drive of the swing arm 9 to provide reverse support for the crane, thereby effectively reducing the possibility of further overturning of the crane after it is tilted, and using the buzzer light 16 to promptly remind the operator, thereby improving operational safety.
[0033] See also Figure 1 The bottom of the moving seat 1 is provided with moving wheels distributed in four corners, and a pair of moving wheels and the supporting wheel 8 located on one side of the handrail rod 14 are all universal wheels.
[0034] Specifically, it is convenient to realize the movement and steering of the crane.
[0035] It should be noted that the telescopic arm 5 is a hydraulic telescopic arm, the winding mechanism 7 is a winding drum with a motor, a gravity sensor is installed on the hook 6, the gravity sensor is electrically connected to the controller 15, and the gravity sensor measures the mass of the suspended object.
[0036] Specifically, the gravity sensor installed on the hook 6 detects the hoisted object, thereby further improving the safety of the hoisting operation and avoiding the situation where the crane overturns due to the weight exceeding the hoisting threshold.
[0037] See also Figure 3 The support tube 2 is a vertically arranged hollow cylinder. The bottom of the rotating seat 3 is fixedly connected to a rotating ring 20 nested in the upper end of the support tube 2. The interior of the support tube 2 is fixedly connected to a fixed gear ring 17 located below the rotating ring 20. The fixed gear ring 17 is meshed with a second driving gear 18, and the second driving gear 18 is connected to a second motor 19 installed in the rotating seat 3.
[0038] Specifically, the second motor 19 drives the second driving gear 18 to roll on the fixed gear ring 17, thereby driving the rotating seat 3 and the rotating ring 20 to rotate along the supporting tube 2, which is convenient for lifting and steering, improves the freedom of operation and saves manpower.
[0039] In order to improve the supporting effect, the roll support mechanism includes a plurality of support wheel assemblies. The first motor 12 of each support wheel assembly is equipped with a Hall sensor, and the Hall sensor monitors the rotation angle of the first motor 12 in real time.
[0040] Specifically, the supporting effect of the crane is improved by using multiple roll support mechanisms, and by monitoring the rotation angle of the first motor 12, it is convenient to monitor and control the rotation position of the support wheel 8 of each roll support mechanism, thereby further improving the stability and anti-overturning ability of the crane.
[0041] Second implementation method:
[0042] Figure 5-9 A small working crane with a safety alarm device is shown. Based on the first embodiment, a clamping mechanism 21 is installed on the side of the rotating seat 3 away from the support arm 4. The clamping mechanism 21 includes a pair of clamping plates 22 arranged opposite to each other. The clamping plates 22 are connected to a slide frame 23 fixedly connected to the rotating seat 3. A bidirectional screw module 24 threadedly connected to the clamping plates 22 is installed in the slide frame 23.
[0043] Specifically, after the heavy object is lifted and placed on the rotating seat 3, the bidirectional screw module 24 is started to drive the clamping plate 22 to move toward each other to clamp and fix the heavy object on the rotating seat 3, so as to facilitate the rapid fixation of the heavy object during transportation and avoid the situation where the overall center of gravity of the crane is continuously moved due to the shaking of the heavy object, which may cause the crane to overturn.
[0044] See also Figure 6 A fixing plate 25 is mounted on each clamping plate 22, and a plurality of groups of clamping rods 26 distributed in concentric circles are mounted on the fixing plate 25. The clamping rods 26 are connected to an air bag 31 through a universal joint 30 on the side facing the weight.
[0045] Specifically, when the clamping plate 22 is close to the weight, the airbag 31 contacts the surface of the weight and is squeezed and compressed, so that the airbag 31 better fits the surface of the weight, making it easier to clamp and fix irregularly shaped weights and improving the stability of the clamping of the weight.
[0046] See also Figure 7 and Figure 8 The clamping rod 26 includes a mounting tube 27 nested in the fixed disk 25, a piston rod 28 extending to the outside of the mounting tube 27 is nested in the mounting tube 27, the piston rod 28 abuts against a spring 29 installed in the mounting tube 27, and the end of the piston rod 28 away from the spring 29 is connected to the universal joint 30, the mounting tube 27 is filled with magnetorheological fluid, and the clamping plate 22 is located outside the fixed disk 25 and is installed with an electromagnetic coil 32.
[0047] Specifically, when the clamping is completed, the electromagnetic coil 32 is started, and the electromagnetic coil 32 applies a magnetic field to the magnetorheological fluid in the mounting tube 27, so that the magnetorheological fluid solidifies, and then the clamping rod 26 is locked to improve the stability of the clamping.
[0048] In this embodiment, the airbag 31 is a hollow hemispherical airbag, the electromagnetic coil 32 is connected to an electromagnetic driver, and the electromagnetic driver is electrically connected to the controller 15 .
[0049] Specifically, it is convenient to achieve stable clamping and fixing of heavy objects.
[0050] In view of current practical needs, the above-mentioned implementation mode adopted in this application is not limited to the scope of protection. Various changes made within the knowledge scope of technical personnel in this field without departing from the concept of this application still fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
