Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of crane equipment, in particular to a movable gantry crane. Background Art

[0002] A gantry crane, also known as a portal crane, is a variant of a bridge crane. Its bridge is supported by two legs on the ground track, forming a door-shaped frame. A gantry crane is a door-shaped lifting machine that performs cyclic and intermittent movements. It uses crane beams and crane ropes to lift, lower and move heavy objects. It is mainly used for outdoor cargo yards, storage yards and bulk cargo loading and unloading operations. Due to its high site utilization rate, wide operating range, wide adaptability and strong versatility, it is widely used in ports, docks, metallurgy, electric power, chemical industry and other industrial sites. The conventional existing technical solutions have the following defects: During operation, the wire rope is constantly rubbing against pulleys, drums and other components, and needs to be lubricated regularly. However, during use, workers often forget to lubricate the rope, which leads to increased wear on the surface of the wire rope. In addition, the bending part of the wire rope on the pulley or drum is prone to stress concentration, which accelerates wire breakage and damage. When a crane is used outdoors and encounters strong winds, it will slide with the wind, but it will not be able to stop automatically. If the brakes are not stopped in time, the crane may collide with surrounding buildings, equipment or personnel, causing serious safety accidents. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a movable gantry crane to solve the defects of the existing gantry crane, such as the short service life of the sliding wire rope and the inability to stop in time.

[0005] Preferably, the braking mechanism includes a fan blade, a first gear, a stop block, a brake block, a first rack and a first spring. The fan blade is rotatably mounted on both ends of the bottom of the portal support frame, and one end of the fan blade is fixedly mounted with a first gear.

[0006] Preferably, a first rack is movably provided on one side of the first gear, and the first rack is meshed with the first gear, and a brake block is slidably installed on the bottom end of the first rack.

[0007] Preferably, a stop block is provided on one side of the bottom of the brake block, and the stop block and the end close to the brake block are inclined at matching angles, and a first spring is fixedly installed on the top of the first rack.

[0008] Preferably, the forward and reverse racks are meshed with the second gear, and the forward and reverse racks are meshed with the third gear.

[0009] Preferably, the extrusion plate includes a brush, a sponge pad, a slide groove, a connecting rod, a piston and an oil outlet hole, the brush bolt is installed at the bottom end of the extrusion plate, and the sponge pad is fixedly installed at the opposite end of the extrusion plate.

[0010] Preferably, an oil outlet hole is provided at the bottom of the outer wall of the extrusion plate at one end of the sponge pad, a piston is movably provided inside the extrusion plate at the top end of the brush, and a connecting rod is hingedly installed on one side of the piston.

[0011] Preferably, a slide groove is fixedly installed on one side of the bracket on one side of the connecting rod, and a sliding structure is formed between the slide groove and the connecting rod.

[0012] Preferably, the number of teeth on the second rack is the same as the number of teeth on both ends of the forward and reverse racks, and the second rack is meshed with the fourth gear. A spur gear is fixedly installed on one side of the fourth gear through a rotating shaft, and the spur gear is meshed with the third gear.

[0013] The movable gantry crane provided by the present invention has the following advantages: By providing a lubrication mechanism, when the electric hoist rotates forward to pull the wire rope to lift the heavy object, it drives the second gear to rotate forward so that the forward and reverse racks move upward, and the third gear meshing with it is reversed, and the fourth gear is rotated forward through the spur gear, driving the second rack to move closer to the middle at the same time, so that the sponge pad and the brush fixed thereto partially overlap. The brush and sponge pad can clean the surface of the wire rope moving upward, avoiding the accumulation of impurities between the wire rope and the pulley and drum, reducing transmission efficiency and increasing energy consumption; Furthermore, the extrusion plate moves toward the middle, causing the connecting rod to slide inside the slide groove. When sliding to the innermost end, the connecting rod is squeezed vertically, pushing the piston to move to one side inside the extrusion plate. A sealing nozzle is provided inside the oil outlet. When squeezed, lubricating oil sprays out from the oil outlet and contacts the sponge pad. When the wire rope moves upward, it fully contacts its surface, making lubrication uniform, thereby reducing the friction between the wire rope of the gantry crane and components such as the pulley and drum, and extending its service life. By providing a brake mechanism, in windy weather, the strong wind flow drives the fan blades to rotate, and the first rack is moved downward by the rotation of the first gear. When it moves to the position of the stop block, the angle between the cut angles is matched, so that the brake block moves downward and forward at the same time, firmly clamping the bottom of the roller. When the strong wind stops, the first spring drives the first rack to rise through the tensile force, so that the brake block leaves the bottom of the roller, and the roller loses the engagement and can move again, so that the gantry crane can automatically stop in windy weather, and timely braking can prevent the crane from sliding, thereby enhancing safety.

[0016] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0017] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-12The present invention provides a movable gantry crane, comprising a gantry support frame 1 and a track 2; tracks 2 are laid and installed on both sides of the bottom end of the gantry support frame 1, brake mechanisms 3 are provided at both ends of the bottom of the gantry support frame 1, rollers 8 are movably installed at the bottom end of the gantry support frame 1, an electric hoist 4 is movably installed on the top of the gantry support frame 1, and a lubrication mechanism 5 is installed on one side bolt of the electric hoist 4, a steel wire rope 6 is wound around the inside of the electric hoist 4, and a hook 7 is movably installed at the end of the steel wire rope 6, the brake mechanism 3 includes a fan blade 31, a first gear 32, a stop block 33, a brake block 34, a first The rack 35 and the first spring 36, the fan blade 31 is rotatably mounted on both ends of the bottom of the portal support frame 1, one end of the fan blade 31 is fixedly mounted with a first gear 32, one side of the first gear 32 is movably provided with a first rack 35, and the first rack 35 and the first gear 32 are meshed and connected, the bottom end of the first rack 35 is slidably mounted with a brake block 34, one side of the bottom of the brake block 34 is provided with a stop block 33, the stop block 33 is welded and fixed to the bottom of the portal support frame 1, and the end close to the stop block 33 and the brake block 34 is inclined at a matching angle, and the top of the first rack 35 is fixedly mounted with a first spring 36; Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, when the device is in use, because the device itself is a large device, it will not move in the case of level 3 or 4 strong winds. When it is level 5 or 6 or even higher, it needs to be braked urgently. Since two sets of brake mechanisms 3 are provided on each track 2, and the fan blades 31 inside thereof face opposite directions, when a strong wind blows from any direction, it will drive the fan blades 31 on one set of brake mechanisms 3 to rotate, and the first rack 35 is moved downward by the rotation of the first gear 32. When it moves to the position of the block 33, the first rack 35 is moved downward by the rotation of the first gear 32. When it moves to the position of the block 33, the first rack 35 is moved downward by the rotation of the first gear 32. When the first rack 35 moves downward by the rotation of the first gear 32, the first rack 35 is moved downward by the rotation of the first gear 32.
