[0024] See Figure 1-Figure 4A safety protection device for a truck-mounted crane comprises a limit pin detection switch 1, a buzzer 2, a load-discharging solenoid valve 3, an instrument relay 4 and an alarm relay 5. The buzzer 2 is arranged on a turntable support 8. The limit pin detection switch 1 is a photoelectric proximity switch. The limit pin detection switch 1 is fixedly arranged directly below the turntable support 8 and faces a support limit pin hole 81 on the turntable support 8. A turntable 9 is rotatably connected to the turntable support 8. The load-discharging solenoid valve 3 is arranged on the turntable 9. The load-discharging solenoid valve 3 is connected to a hydraulic actuator of the truck-mounted crane and is used to control the hydraulic actuator. To perform unloading operation, the turntable 9 is provided with a front turntable limit pin hole 91 and a rear turntable limit pin hole 92 which are symmetrical along the radial direction of the turntable 9. When the boom 11 connected to the turntable 9 is located directly in front of the cab, the front turntable limit pin hole 91 and the support limit pin hole 81 overlap up and down, and the limit pin 10 is inserted into the front turntable limit pin hole 91 and the support limit pin hole 81. When the boom 11 is located directly behind the cab, the rear turntable limit pin hole 92 and the support limit pin hole 81 overlap up and down, and the limit pin 10 is inserted into the rear turntable limit pin hole 92 and the support limit pin hole 81.
[0025] One end of the limit pin detection switch 1, one end of the normally closed contact of the instrument relay 4 and one end of the normally open contact of the alarm relay 5 are all connected to the positive pole of the power supply 7 of the truck crane, one end of the coil of the instrument relay 4 and one end of the coil of the alarm relay 5 are all connected to the other end of the limit pin detection switch 1, the other end of the coil of the instrument relay 4 and the other end of the coil of the alarm relay 5 are both grounded, the other end of the normally closed contact of the instrument relay 4 is connected to the instrument 12 in the cab, the buzzer 2 is provided with a manual switch 6, one end of the manual switch 6 and one end of the unloading solenoid valve 3 are all connected to the other end of the normally open contact of the alarm relay 5, the other end of the manual switch 6 is connected to one end of the buzzer 2, and the other end of the buzzer 2 and the other end of the unloading solenoid valve 3 are both grounded;
[0026] A turntable seat 13 is provided on the turntable 9, one end of the limit pin pull rope 14 is connected to the turntable seat 13, and the other end of the limit pin pull rope 14 is connected to the limit pin 10.

[0027] Working principle of the present invention:
[0028] When the operator is ready to operate the truck crane, the limit pin detection switch 1 detects that the limit pin 10 is inserted into the turntable 9, the limit pin detection switch 1 is closed, and the normally closed contact of the instrument relay 4 is disconnected. At this time, the instrument 12 cannot receive the signal, and the normally open contact of the alarm relay 5 is closed. At this time, the buzzer 2 is energized to alarm, prompting the operator that the limit pin has not been pulled out. At the same time, the unloading solenoid valve 3 receives a signal, and the unloading solenoid valve 3 performs an unloading operation on the hydraulic actuator to prevent the truck crane from making any operation and prevent the turntable 9 and the turntable support 8 from shearing the limit pin 10; when the operator is already on the turntable seat 13 on the turntable 9 and forgets to pull out the limit pin 10, the limit pin pull rope 14 can be pulled out of the turntable 9 by pulling the limit pin, saving the operator's time for getting on and off the vehicle and improving work efficiency.
[0029] When the truck-mounted crane is ready to start driving, and the limit pin detection switch 1 does not detect the insertion of the limit pin 10 on the turntable 9, the instrument 12 in the cab receives a signal and displays a prompt of "Please insert the turntable limit pin" to avoid the situation where the truck-mounted crane brakes or turns when the limit pin 10 is not inserted, causing the turntable to rotate, and the boom or hook of the truck-mounted crane hits the vehicles, objects, and personnel near the truck-mounted crane, causing property damage or casualties.
