[0014] The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0015] like Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, a crane for subway construction includes two lifting frames 1, the upper parts of the two lifting frames 1 are respectively connected to sliding seats 2 for horizontal rotation, the two sliding seats 2 are connected to guide rails 3 for forward and backward sliding, the guide rails 3 are connected to monorails 4 for sliding, the two sliding seats 2 are respectively installed with upper walking mechanisms 5 that cooperate with the guide rails 3, the bottoms of the two lifting frames 1 are respectively installed with lower walking mechanisms 6, the lower walking mechanisms 6 include support frames 7, track wheels 8, support wheels 9 and reduction motors 10, the bottoms of the two lifting frames 1 are respectively connected to support frames 7 for forward and backward rotation, and the left and right parts of the support frames 7 are connected in front and back. The upper part of the outer circumference of each track wheel 8 is flush with the upper part of the outer circumference of each support wheel 9, and the lower part of the outer circumference of each track wheel 8 is located above the lower part of the outer circumference of each support wheel 9. A reduction motor 10 is fixed to the left and right parts of the support frame 7. The rotating shaft of the reduction motor 10 is meshed with the track wheel 8 through gears. The track wheel 8 is connected to the support wheel 9 through a chain drive. An annular accommodating groove 11 corresponding to the track wheel 8 on the left and right is opened in the middle of the support wheel 9, and an annular brush 12 is fixed in the accommodating groove 11.

[0016] Before use, by pushing the two lifting frames 1 left and right so that they are staggered in the front-to-back direction, the front-to-back distance between the two lifting frames 1 can be reduced, so that it can adapt to tunnels and working environments with smaller widths. The lower walking mechanism 6 has two usage modes. The first mode: there is no need to flip the support frame 7. The track wheel 8 is used to roll and rub against the subway track, and the reduction motor 10 is used to drive the track wheel 8 to rotate, so as to realize walking on the track. During this period, the support wheel 9 and the brush 12 rotating in the opposite direction can clean the attached crops on the surface of the subway track to ensure the safety of walking along the track. The second mode: the local subway construction crane is lifted, and then the support frame 7 is flipped half a circle, and then put back on the ground. At this time, only the support wheel 9 is rolling and rubbing against the ground. At this time, the reduction motor 10 is used to indirectly drive the support wheel 9 to rotate, so that it can walk on the ground without the support of the subway track, which is convenient for hoisting and laying the rails and stock.

[0017] The upper walking mechanism 5 includes a lifting wheel 13, a drag wheel 14 and a servo motor 15. The longitudinal section of the guide rail 3 is an "I" shape. The left and right parts of the sliding seat 2 are each rotatably connected with a horizontal lifting wheel 13 in the left and right directions. The lifting wheel 13 lifts and rolls the upper part of the guide rail 3. The left and right parts of the sliding seat 2 are each rotatably connected with a vertical drag wheel 14 in the up and down directions. The drag wheels 14 of the left and right parts of the sliding seat 2 are clamped and rolled with the middle part of the guide rail 3. A vertical servo motor 15 is fixed to the top of the sliding seat 2. The rotating shaft of the servo motor 15 is meshed with the drag wheel 14 through gears for transmission.

[0018] The No. 1 servo motor 15 can drive the two drag wheels 14 to rotate at the same speed in opposite directions, so that the clamping and rolling friction of the drag wheel 14 on the middle part of the guide rail 3 can be used to realize the movement of the sliding seat 2 along the guide rail 3, so that the relative positions of the sliding seat 2 and the lifting frame 1 compared with the guide rail 3 can be adjusted, which is convenient for moving in a narrow space. The lifting of the guide rail 3 by the lifting wheel 13 can reduce the friction with the sliding seat 2 and reduce wear.

[0019] The lifting frame 1 and the support frame 7 are jointly installed with a flipping mechanism 16, and the flipping mechanism 16 includes a hydraulic system 17, a controller 18, a hydraulic cylinder 19, a support plate 20, and a No. 2 servo motor 21. The two lifting frames 1 are respectively fixed with a hydraulic system 17, and the two hydraulic systems 17 are respectively fixed with a controller 18. The controller 18 is a single-chip microcomputer, a PLC or an industrial computer. The hydraulic system 17 and the controller 18 are externally connected to a power supply. The left and right parts of the lifting frame 1 are respectively fixed with two vertical hydraulic cylinders 19, and the bottom end of the piston rod of each hydraulic cylinder 19 is respectively fixed with a horizontal support plate 20. The hydraulic cylinder 19 is connected to the hydraulic system 17 through a pipeline. The two lifting frames 1 are respectively fixed with a vertical No. 2 servo motor 21. The rotating shafts of the two No. 2 servo motors 21 are respectively meshed with the support frame 7 through bevel gears for transmission. When the No. 2 servo motor 21 is powered on and rotated, it can drive the support frame 7 to rotate forward and backward through the bevel gear.

[0020] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the flipping of the support frame 7, a flipping mechanism 16 is provided. When in use, by controlling the hydraulic system 17 to operate, each hydraulic cylinder 19 extends a piston rod, so that the support plate 20 can be in contact with the ground, and the local subway construction crane can be lifted. At this time, by controlling the second servo motor 21 to rotate, the support frame 7 can be conveniently flipped. At the same time, by using the hydraulic cylinder 19 to lift the local subway construction crane, the monorail crane 4 can lift heavier objects, while also ensuring the stability of the lifting.

[0021] Brake blocks 22 are respectively connected to the middle part of the two support frames 7 for sliding up and down. The brake blocks 22 corresponding to the same support frame 7 correspond to the support wheels 9 and the track wheels 8 on the left and right. Vertical electric push rods 23 are respectively fixed to the bottom of the two lifting frames 1. The electric push rods 23 are electrically connected to the controller 18. Tension springs 24 are respectively fixed at the left and right ends of the brake blocks 22. The other end of the tension spring 24 is fixed to the support frame 7. When the push rods of the two electric push rods 23 are extended, they can push the brake blocks 22 downward.

[0022] Furthermore, in order to stop the traveling state of the local subway construction crane as soon as possible, by controlling the electric push rod 23 to extend the push rod, the brake block 22 can be rubbed against the track or the ground below, thereby increasing the resistance and shortening the braking time. When the electric push rod 23 is retracted, the brake block 22 rises and resets under the elastic pull of the tension spring 24, thereby releasing the contact with the track or the ground below, and then releasing the braking state.

[0023] A vertical guide cylinder 25 is fixed to the left and right parts of the lifting frame 1, and each of the guide cylinders 25 is slidably connected to a vertical support column 26 up and down, and a horizontal pressure plate 27 is fixed to the bottom end of each support column 26. The pressure plate 27, the track wheel 8 and the support wheel 9 under the same lifting frame 1 are consistent in the left and right directions. A vertical rack 28 is fixed to the side wall of each support column 26, and a compression spring 29 is fixed to the top of each support column 26. The top of each compression spring 29 is fixed to the bottom of the lifting frame 1, and a horizontal No. 3 servo motor 30 is fixed to the left and right parts of the lifting frame 1. An incomplete gear 31 is coaxially fixed to the rotating shaft of each No. 3 servo motor 30, and each incomplete gear 31 is intermittently meshed with each rack 28.

[0024] Furthermore, when the ground below is relatively soft and it is necessary to walk on the ground, by controlling the No. 3 servo motor 30 to rotate continuously and accordingly, the meshing of the incomplete gear 31 and the rack 28 can be utilized to realize the intermittent upward movement of the support column 26 along the guide cylinder 25, and in the process of moving upward, the compression spring 29 will be squeezed to store elastic force. When the incomplete gear 31 and the rack 28 are out of meshing, the support column 26 will move downward rapidly under the elastic repulsive force of the compression spring 29, thereby utilizing the pressure plate 27 to compact the road surface below, thereby facilitating the movement of the support wheel 9 and improving the walking stability.

[0025] The above is a preferred embodiment of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this field, according to the teachings of the present invention, without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, changes, modifications, substitutions and variations made to the implementation methods are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
