After the suspension rope is hung on the hook, release the movable arm. Under the extrusion of the spring, the movable arm rotates, so that the pressing ring at the end of the movable arm can press on the upper part of the suspension rope.

[0040] A protective cover, the protective cover is installed on the top of the installation block by screws, and the industrial control computer is installed inside the protective cover.

[0041] On the other hand, the present invention also provides a method for positioning and anti-swaying of a crane hook, including the following steps:

[0042] S1. Install the top of the lifting rope on the guide wheel on the crane. When lifting goods, the crane can control the guide wheel to rotate to achieve the lifting and translation of the hook;

[0043] S2. When it is necessary to lift goods, first move the hook near the goods, then identify the picture through the vision camera, and at the same time the micro motor drives the rotating column to rotate, so that the hook rotates at a constant speed until the vision camera detects the picture of the goods and then stops rotating, so that the open end of the hook faces the goods to complete the positioning;

[0044] S3. The worker hangs the lifting rope on the goods on the hook;

[0045] S4. The crane lifts the goods and moves them to the designated position. After the goods are lifted, the deflection angle of the goods is detected by the detection component, and then the detection component sends the detection result to the industrial control computer. After processing, the industrial control computer controls the micro motor, and the micro motor drives the rotating column to rotate in the opposite direction of the deflection of the goods to offset the deflection force of the goods and keep the goods stable.

[0046] Compared with the prior art, the present invention can at least achieve one of the following beneficial effects:

[0047] 1. By detecting the deflection angle of the goods after being lifted by the detection component, and then sending the angle value to the industrial control computer, the industrial control computer judges that the hook needs to be flipped according to this signal, so that the hook and the goods are kept in a fixed orientation, preventing the deflection during the transportation of the goods from causing uncontrollable movement during the movement and avoiding danger.

[0048] 2. By setting the extension arm and four piezoresistive strain gauges, when the goods deflect, it can drive the suspension rope to twist. After the suspension rope twists, the pressure values detected by the two piezoresistive strain gauges at the diagonal positions are significantly greater than the pressure values detected by the other two piezoresistive strain gauges. Therefore, using this characteristic, it is possible to detect the twist of the suspension rope caused by the deflection of the goods, and it is also possible to detect the direction and acceleration of the goods deflection. Furthermore, by controlling the micro-motor to apply a reaction force to the rotating column and the hook, the deflection of the goods can be suppressed, achieving the effect of anti-swaying.

[0049] 3. The vision camera is used to locate the placement position of the goods, and then the rotating column and the hook are controlled by the micro-motor, so that the open end of the hook can be positioned at the placement position of the goods, achieving the positioning function, thus facilitating the worker to hang the goods on the hook or achieving the effect of automatically lifting the goods.

[0050] 4. By setting the movable arm, when lifting the goods, first lift the movable arm upward to form an opening between the pressing ring and the hook, allowing the suspension rope to pass through. After the suspension rope is hung on the hook, release the movable arm. Under the squeezing action of the spring, the movable arm rotates, so that the pressing ring at the end of the movable arm can press on the upper part of the suspension rope, preventing the suspension rope from moving back and forth in the hook.

Detailed implementation manners

[0065] The following will specifically describe the preferred embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, where the accompanying drawings form a part of the present invention and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to explain the principle of the present invention.

[0066] Embodiment 1: Refer to Figures 1 - 10 , this embodiment provides a crane hook positioning and anti-sway device, which can prevent the goods 201 from swinging in the horizontal direction when lifting the goods 201. The specific solution includes:

[0067] Support member 101;

[0068] Hook 102, installed at the bottom of the support member 101;

[0069] The lifting rope 103 is installed at the top of the support member 101. An annular cavity 105 is formed inside the support member 101. The lifting rope 103 is threaded through the annular cavity 105. The top of the lifting rope 103 is connected by a guide wheel 104. By controlling the rotation of the guide wheel 104, the lifting rope 103 can be wound, achieving the lifting effect of the hook 102 and the support member 101;

[0070] The rotating column 106 is fixedly connected to the top of the hook 102. A rotating hole is formed in the middle of the support member 101. The rotating column 106 is rotatably connected to the rotating hole;

[0071] The deviation correction assembly, the deviation correction assembly includes:

[0072] The first spur gear 301 is fixedly connected to the middle of the rotating column 106. The first spur gear 301 is rotatably connected to the middle of the rotating hole;

[0073] The second spur gear 302, the second spur gear 302 meshes with the first spur gear 301. The second spur gear 302 is rotatably installed inside the support member 101, so that the second spur gear 302 can be fixed inside the support member 101;

[0074] The first bevel gear 303 is fixedly connected to the top of the second spur gear 302 and rotates synchronously with the second spur gear 302;

[0075] The second bevel gear 304, the second bevel gear 304 is rotatably installed inside the support member 101. The second bevel gear 304 and the first bevel gear 303 are arranged perpendicular to each other;

[0076] The micro motor 305, a receiving cavity is formed at one end of the support member 101. The micro motor 305 is fixedly installed inside the receiving cavity. The output shaft of the micro motor 305 is fixedly connected to the middle of the second bevel gear 304. The micro motor 305 can drive the second bevel gear 304 to rotate;

[0077] The storage battery 306 is installed at the other end of the support member 101 and is connected to the micro motor 305 through a wire;

[0078] The detection assembly is installed on the hook 102 and is used to detect the deflection angle after the goods 201 are lifted, and can send the detected signal to the industrial control computer. The industrial control computer is installed on the support member 101. The industrial control computer can identify the signal of the deflection angle. The output end of the industrial control computer is signal-connected to the input end of the micro motor 305;

[0079] Through the above solution, the detection component detects the deflection angle of the goods 201 after being lifted, and then sends the angle value to the industrial control computer. The industrial control computer determines that the hook 102 needs to be reversed based on this signal, so that the hook 102 and the goods maintain a fixed orientation, preventing the uncontrollable movement caused by the deflection during the transportation of the goods 201 and avoiding danger.

[0080] As a feasible solution, since the deflection force generated when the goods 201 are lifted cannot overcome the friction between the rotating column 106 and the rotating hole, the rotating column 106 and the support member 101 are stationary. However, the lifting ropes 202 on the goods 201 will twist. Therefore, if an angle sensor is directly installed between the rotating column 106 and the rotating hole, the actual deflection angle of the goods 201 cannot be detected. Therefore, in this embodiment, the following solution is adopted to achieve the detection of the deflection angle in this case:

[0081] The detection component includes:

[0082] The extension arm 401 is fixedly connected to both sides of the hook 102 and respectively forms two channels through which the lifting ropes 202 can pass. The channels are vertical. After the goods 201 are lifted, both ends of the lifting ropes 202 can pass through the channels;

[0083] There are four pressure strain gauges 402. The four pressure strain gauges 402 are respectively fixedly installed on the inner walls of the two channels. When the goods 201 deflect, it can drive the lifting ropes 202 to twist. After the lifting ropes 202 twist, the pressure values detected by the two pressure strain gauges 402 in the diagonal position are significantly greater than the pressure values detected by the other two pressure strain gauges 402. Therefore, using this characteristic, the torsion of the lifting ropes 202 caused by the deflection of the goods 201 can be detected, and the direction and acceleration of the goods deflection can be detected. Furthermore, by controlling the micro motor 305 to apply a reaction force to the rotating column 106 and the hook 102, the deflection of the goods 201 can be suppressed, achieving the effect of anti-shaking.

[0084] Embodiment 2: The technical solution of this embodiment is different from that of Embodiment 1 in that it further includes:

[0085] The vision camera 308 is fixedly installed at one end of the hook 102. The acquisition end of the vision camera 308 faces the open end of the hook 102. The vision camera 308 is used to locate the placement position of the goods 201, and then control the rotating column 106 and the hook 102 through the micro motor 305, so that the open end of the hook 102 can be positioned at the placement position of the goods 201, achieving the positioning function, thereby facilitating the worker to hang the goods 201 on the hook 102 or realizing the effect of automatically lifting the goods;

[0086] A channel 307 is provided in the middle of the lifting hook 102, and the channel 307 can respectively lead to the storage battery 306, the micro motor 305, the pressure strain gauge 402 and the vision camera 308, so as to achieve the effect of circuit connection.

[0089] A spring 313 is installed inside the activity groove 311. Both ends of the spring 313 are respectively fixed to the outer wall of the activity block 312 and the inner wall of the activity groove 311;

After the lifting rope 202 is hung on the lifting hook 102, release the movable arm 309. Under the extrusion of the spring 313, the movable arm 309 rotates, so that the pressing ring 314 at the end of the movable arm 309 can press on the upper part of the lifting rope 202, making the lifting rope 202 unable to move back and forth in the lifting hook 102.
