Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of port loading and unloading, and in particular to a method for connecting a double-lifting quay crane hoisting device upper hydraulic system. Background Art

[0002] With the development of container transportation, in order to achieve efficient loading and unloading of container ships at port terminals, more and more new technologies are applied to quay cranes. Compared with the previous single-lift quay cranes, double-lift quay cranes have greatly improved the loading and unloading efficiency of containers. However, the existing double-lift quay crane hoisting hydraulic system has some shortcomings: 1. Weight problem: In order to realize the interlocking operation of double spreaders, the sea side frame and the land side frame are equipped with independent hydraulic power stations, which greatly increases the weight of the spreader, thus affecting the lifting speed of the quay crane and the overall work efficiency.

[0003] 2. Energy consumption: Two independent hydraulic power stations mean higher energy consumption. With the rising cost of electricity, how to reduce energy consumption has become a problem that port operators need to consider.

[0004] 3. Maintenance complexity: The maintenance and overhaul of the two hydraulic systems increases the workload of maintenance personnel and also increases maintenance costs.

[0005] 4. Operational complexity: Operators need to be familiar with the operating procedures of two hydraulic systems, which increases the complexity of operation and the possibility of errors.

[0006] 5. Safety issues: In the existing hydraulic system, due to the complexity of electrical limit protection and hydraulic cylinder control, there are certain safety hazards, especially in the process of docking and separation of spreaders.

[0007] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention proposes a connection method for the hydraulic system of a double-lifting quay crane hoist, which can improve loading and unloading efficiency, reduce energy consumption, simplify maintenance and operation procedures, and improve the safety and reliability of the system. Summary of the invention

[0009] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention proposes a method for connecting a hydraulic system of a double-lifting quay crane hoist, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Connect the main valve oil pipes on the hydraulic power station of the seaside upper frame and the landside upper frame to the hydraulic oil tank of the spreader through the hydraulic quick connector; Step 2: Put the oil tank and motor on the hoist for use as backup power; Step 3: Force the high-pressure valve on the landside spreader to maintain pressurization; Step 4: Disconnect the spreader pump contactor so that it is not controlled by the landside anchor and landside selection buttons.

[0010] Furthermore, step 1 is specifically as follows: Step 1.1: Connect the main valve oil pipe of the hydraulic power station on the sea side; Step 1.2: Connect the main valve oil pipe of the hydraulic power station on the land side; Step 1.3: Make sure the hydraulic quick connector is installed correctly; Step 1.4: Check the tightness of the hydraulic system connections; Step 1.5: Perform a pressure test on the hydraulic system.

[0011] Furthermore, step 3 is specifically as follows: Step 3.1: Modify the high-pressure valve program segment of the sea-side hoisting device to make it long-open; Step 3.2: Ensure that the system runs stably after the program is modified; Step 3.3: Perform system testing after program modification; By changing the land-side spreader high-pressure valve to a long-pass state to force the land-side spreader high-pressure valve to maintain pressurization, it is ensured that the spreader clamp can maintain sufficient working pressure under any circumstances, thereby improving the stability and safety of the system.

[0012] Further, in step 4, the operation of disconnecting the spreader pump contactor includes: Step 4.1: Disconnect the landside spreader upper pump contactor; Step 4.2: Disconnect the sea side spreader upper pump contactor; Step 4.3: Ensure safe operation of the system after disconnection operation; Improves system safety and prevents system failures caused by misoperation.

[0013] Furthermore, the lifting device includes a main beam, telescopic beams are installed at both ends of the main beam, a guide plate is fixed to the top of the telescopic beam, an intermediate lifting point is arranged at the bottom of the main beam, and a hydraulic component is installed on the top of the main beam.

[0014] Furthermore, the hydraulic assembly includes a hydraulic oil tank, a rack oil tank and a motor, and the hydraulic oil tank is connected to the hydraulic power station of the sea side rack and the land side rack through pipelines.

[0015] Furthermore, the telescopic beam is in a U shape, and one open end is plugged into the main beam.

[0016] Furthermore, there are four guide plates, which are respectively fixed at ends of the two telescopic beams that are away from each other, and the four guide plates are symmetrically arranged.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. Improve loading and unloading efficiency: The present invention optimizes the hydraulic system of the double-lifting quay crane hoist, so that the quay crane can load and unload containers more efficiently. By reducing the repeated configuration of the hydraulic system, the weight of the hoist is reduced, thereby improving the speed and efficiency of the loading and unloading operation.

[0018] 2. Reduce energy consumption: The improved system reduces the number of hydraulic power stations and reduces electricity consumption. Due to the optimization of the hydraulic system, energy loss is reduced, energy conservation and emission reduction are achieved, which is in line with the development trend of green environmental protection.

At the same time, the hoist tank and the motor are used as backup power to reduce the weight of the double hoist and improve the working efficiency of the quay crane. Finally, the PLC program is modified to force the pressurization of the high-pressure valve on the land-side hoist to be maintained to ensure the working pressure of the hoist clamp; the hoist pump contactor PLC program segment is disconnected so that it is not controlled by the land-side anchoring and the land-side selection button, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the system.

[0030] Specifically, the following steps are included: Step 1: Use hydraulic quick connectors to connect the main valve oil pipes on the hydraulic power station on the sea side and the land side to the hydraulic oil tank of the spreader to achieve optimal configuration of the hydraulic system.

[0031] Step 2: Use the oil tank and motor on the spreader as backup power, which reduces the weight of the double spreaders and improves the working efficiency of the quay crane.

[0032] Step 3: Modify the PLC program, including the following steps: Change the sea-side spreader high-pressure valve program segment to long pass to force the land-side spreader high-pressure valve to maintain pressurization, ensuring that the spreader clamp can maintain sufficient working pressure under any circumstances.

[0033] Step 4: Forcefully disconnect the landside spreader upper pump contactor so that the spreader pump contactor is not controlled by the landside anchoring and landside selection button.

[0034] Through the above transformation, the hydraulic system of the double-lifting spreader was optimized, and the working efficiency and reliability of the quay crane were improved.

[0035] The hoisting device includes a main beam 3, both ends of which are equipped with telescopic beams 1. The telescopic beam 1 is U-shaped, and the open end is plugged into the main beam 3. A guide plate 4 is fixed on the top of the telescopic beam 1. There are four guide plates 4, which are respectively fixed on the ends of the two telescopic beams 1 that are away from each other.
