Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field related to cranes, and in particular to a lifting mechanism and a lifting method of a crane. Background Art

[0002] A crane is a multi-action lifting machine that can lift and carry heavy objects vertically and horizontally within a certain range. It is also called a crane. The main features of a tire crane are: its driving cab and lifting control cab are combined into one, and it is evolved from a crawler crane (crawler crane). The crawler and traveling support parts of the traveling mechanism are transformed into a chassis with tires, which overcomes the disadvantage of crawler cranes (crawler cranes) that the crawler plates damage the road surface. It belongs to material handling machinery. Some lifting equipment has the working characteristic of intermittent movement, that is, the corresponding mechanisms of material collection, transportation, unloading and other actions work alternately in a working cycle. The development and use of cranes in the market are becoming more and more extensive.

[0003] The existing publication number CN103935918A discloses a crane lifting mechanism with a wire rope anti-winding function, which comprises a drum, the top of which is mounted on the crane beam through a traveling gear, and one side of the drum is externally connected to a reducer and a driving motor; the drum comprises a drum cover, an opening is arranged on the drum cover, bearings are arranged at both ends of the drum cover, a rotating shaft is arranged between the two bearings, two drum hubs are arranged on the rotating shaft, a drum body is arranged outside the drum hub, a steel rope groove is arranged on the drum body, a steel rope is wound around the steel rope groove, one end of the steel rope passes through the opening of the drum cover and extends vertically downward, and a hook is arranged at the end of the steel rope; the characteristic is that a protective ring is arranged on the inner wall of the drum cover at the outer end of the drum body, and the difference S between the inner hole radius of the protective ring and the outer wall radius of the drum body is less than the diameter D of the steel wire rope; the hidden danger of the steel wire rope being slanted and wound into the rotating shaft and causing jamming is effectively eliminated, the safety of use is improved, and the equipment failure rate is greatly reduced. However, the prior art uses a single steel wire rope for lifting. However, when the single steel wire rope is lifted or lowered, its horizontal distance will change greatly, thereby affecting the stability during lifting.

[0004] Some wire ropes are lifted in a V-shaped manner, with the pulley on the top installed on a fixed structure. Therefore, when the hook is lifted, the pulley cannot match the angle of the wire rope, thus affecting the lifting performance. For this reason, we propose a lifting mechanism and lifting method for a crane. Summary of the invention

[0015] Preferably, four corners of the base are each provided with running wheels, wherein two corresponding running wheels are connected via a connecting shaft, and the base is provided with a second motor for driving the running wheels to rotate.

[0016] A crane lifting method uses the aforementioned crane lifting mechanism; comprising the following steps:

[0017] S1, driving the travel wheel to rotate by the second motor to realize the travel of the lifting mechanism;

[0018] S2. The first motor and the gearbox are used to drive the roller to rotate. When the roller rotates, the wire rope is retracted and released. When the wire rope is retracted and released, the hook assembly is lifted and lowered. When the hook assembly is lifted and lowered to different heights, the angle of the wire rope at the hook assembly will change, so that the angle of the rotating first pulley mounting seat will change to adapt to the angle of the wire rope.

[0019] S3. When the hook assembly reaches the specified height, the driving member drives the brake assembly to act on the brake wheel to achieve the function of braking and fixing.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
