[0002] Large ring forgings are often used in some large machinery. When producing large ring forgings, the ring forgings need to be transported to the next process after forging. Firstly, the temperature of the ring forgings is high after forging, and secondly, the weight of the ring forgings is large, so it is not suitable to use manual handling. Usually, special hoisting equipment is used for hoisting.

[0003] However, traditional forging hoisting devices still have the following problems in high-temperature environments for forgings: On the one hand, traditional hoisting devices move forgings by means of equipment such as chains, which are prone to insufficient stability of forgings due to vibration or external forces, and are easy to shake during hoisting, affecting operational safety; on the other hand, some existing forging movement self-locking structures rely on complex mechanical linkages or electrical controls, which are costly and difficult to maintain. Summary of the Invention

[0012] In a preferred embodiment: the limiting component includes a limiting post, a second limiting block, a threaded rod, and a sliding assembly. One end of the limiting post passes through a first mounting port and one of the third mounting ports. The second limiting block is fixedly connected to one end of the limiting post.

A threaded rod is threadedly connected in the threaded groove. The sliding assembly is disposed near the end of the threaded rod to support and move the threaded rod.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment: the sliding assembly includes a sliding plate, a groove, and a drive handle. A groove is provided on the end wall of the extension beam near the threaded rod. The sliding plate is slidably connected in the groove. The threaded rod is threadedly connected to the sliding plate. A drive handle is fixedly connected to the upper end of the threaded rod. Anti-slip textures are provided on the side wall of the drive handle.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment: the clamping component includes a first release device, a second release device, a clamping cavity, and gripping hooks. The first release device and the second release device are fixedly connected to the upper outer wall of the tray, respectively. A clamping cavity is formed between the first release device and the second release device. A plurality of gripping hooks distributed at equal intervals are clamped in the clamping cavity. A U-shaped block is fixedly connected to the upper end of the plurality of gripping hooks. A fixing block is fixedly connected to the U-shaped block by a first fastening bolt. Both ends of the first fastening bolt are threaded with a first fastening nut.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment: the tie rod and the adjusting block are connected by a second fastening bolt, and the two ends of the second fastening bolt are threaded with a second fastening nut; the tie rod and the upper component are connected by a third fastening bolt, and the two ends of the third fastening bolt are threaded with a third fastening nut; the adjusting block and the upper component are respectively provided with grooves for installing the third fastening bolt and the second fastening bolt.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment: the auxiliary component includes a second clamping plate for further reinforcement when the forging is lifted and a support block, one end of the plurality of extension beams is fixedly connected to a connecting plate, one side of the connecting plate is fixedly connected to the second clamping plate, and the lower end of the connecting plate is slidably connected to the support block.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment: the support block has an L-shaped structure, and a reinforcing cylinder is fixedly connected to one end of the support block. The output shaft of the reinforcing cylinder is fixedly connected to the connecting plate. A connecting hole is opened at the upper end of the bearing pipe, and the crane is connected to the bearing pipe through the fourth fastening bolt and the connecting hole.

[0018] The method of using a self-locking lifting device for heat-treated forgings is as follows:

[0019] S1. According to the specifications and shape of the forging to be hoisted, the installation position of the self-locking hook on the main beam is adjusted by the second adjustment mechanism. The limiting post is passed through the first installation port and the third installation port. The sliding plate slides in the slide groove, thereby adjusting the threaded rod to the top of the limiting post. Then, the drive handle is rotated to move the threaded rod, thereby fixing the position of the limiting post and thus fixing the self-locking hook.

[0020] S2, the lower ends of multiple grab hooks are inserted into the clamping cavity, and then the U-shaped block is fixed to the fixing block by the first fastening bolt and the first fastening nut, thereby completing the connection and fixation between the bearing pipe and the main beam. The drive cylinder is started, and the drive cylinder drives the adjusting block to slide on the bearing pipe. The adjusting block drives the self-locking hook to rotate through the tie rod, thereby exerting an outward force on the inner wall of the forging. Combined with the inward force of the second clamping plate on the forging, the initial self-locking fixation of the forging is completed. Then the crane lifts the forging. When the forging is off the ground, the reinforcement cylinder is started, so that multiple support blocks exert an upward support force on the forging, further increasing the stability of the forging when it moves.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are:

[0022] This invention utilizes a self-locking hook and auxiliary components. During forging hoisting, the adjusting block pulls the tie rod, causing the self-locking hook to rotate. At this time, the lower part of the self-locking hook exerts an outward force on the inner wall of the forging, while the second clamping plate in the auxiliary components applies an inward force to the forging. These two components work together to achieve initial clamping and fixation of the forging. After the forging is lifted off the ground, it pushes the L-shaped support block to move, providing an upward supporting force. Throughout the hoisting process, the self-locking hook and auxiliary components fix and support the forging from multiple directions, effectively counteracting external vibrations and interference, greatly reducing the swaying of the forging, and ensuring the safety of the hoisting process. The stability and safety of the process are achieved through simple mechanical components such as limit posts, threaded rods, and sliding plates to limit and fix the self-locking hook, and through components such as drive cylinders and tie rods to drive the self-locking hook to rotate. Compared with the traditional complex mechanical linkage and electrical control structure, it has fewer components and a simpler structural design. In the actual manufacturing process, these components are easy to process and have low raw material costs, which greatly reduces the manufacturing cost of the equipment. At the same time, due to the simple structure, when a fault occurs later, maintenance personnel can quickly locate the faulty component without the need for complex testing equipment and professional technology, which reduces the difficulty and cost of maintenance, and has high economic efficiency and practicality.

[0023] This invention, through a second adjustment mechanism, allows for the installation of self-locking hooks at different positions on the first mounting opening of the main beam's extension beam. This alters the distribution spacing and angle of the self-locking hooks on the main beam to accommodate the size and shape of the forgings. Simultaneously, in the first adjustment mechanism, the second mounting opening of the upper component of the self-locking hook is obliquely distributed, while the third mounting opening of the lower component is vertically distributed. This allows for adjustment of the contact position and angle between the self-locking hook and the forging according to its specific structure. Furthermore, the first clamping plate and buffer spring within the lower component can adaptively adjust the pressure when clamping the forging, ensuring stable lifting of forgings of different specifications and shapes. This significantly improves the versatility of the lifting device, allowing for adjustments based on forging specifications. The self-locking hook on the main beam can be adjusted and fixed by simply turning the drive handle and sliding the slide plate in the groove to adjust the position of the threaded rod. Then, the bearing pipe is connected to the main beam through the clamping device. Activating the drive cylinder button will cause the adjusting block to rotate the self-locking hook, completing the initial clamping of the forging. After lifting the forging, the reinforcement cylinder button is activated to support and reinforce the forging with the support block. The entire operation process is clear and simple, requiring no complicated training. Operators can quickly master the process, improving work efficiency and reducing the risk of errors caused by complex operation, thus ensuring the safety of manual operation.

The limiting post 15 is passed sequentially through the first mounting port 10 of the extension beam 100 and the third mounting port 12 of the lower component 301 of the self-locking hook 3. The second limiting block 16 at one end of the limiting post 15 prevents it from coming out. A sliding groove 19 is opened on the wall of the extension beam 100 near the threaded rod 17, and a sliding plate 18 is installed so that the threaded rod 17 is threadedly connected to the sliding plate 18.

All components of the entire hoisting device are tightly and stably connected, forming an organic whole. The connection method between the main beam 1 and the bearing pipe 2 ensures the load-bearing foundation of the device. The self-locking hook 3 can be flexibly installed and adjusted. The cooperation between the adjusting block 4 and the drive cylinder 5 realizes automated control. The auxiliary components enhance the all-round support for the forging.

[0037] And auxiliary components, which are located at one end of the main beam 1 and provide auxiliary support for the forging.

[0038] The main beam 1 consists of three equally spaced extension beams 100 and a tray 101. The extension beams 100 are welded to the side wall of the tray 101. Each extension beam 100 has an opening 9 on its wall for installing a self-locking hook 3. The second adjustment mechanism includes several equally spaced first mounting openings 10 on the three extension beams 100. There are three self-locking hooks 3, positioned to match the extension beams 100. Each self-locking hook 3 is composed of an upper component 300 and a lower component 301, which are integrally formed. The included angle between 01 and 01 is 120-160 degrees. The three equally spaced extension beams 100 and the three matching self-locking hooks 3 can evenly distribute the lifting force and prevent the forging from tilting or swaying due to uneven force during the lifting process. The design of the opening 9 on the extension beam 100 and the first installation port 10 makes the self-locking hook 3 flexible to install and can be adapted to various specifications of forgings. The included angle between the upper part 300 and the lower part 301 of the self-locking hook 3 can better fit the surface of the forging, enhance the clamping effect, and further improve the lifting stability and reliability to meet the lifting needs under different working conditions.

[0039] The first adjustment mechanism includes a second mounting port 11, a third mounting port 12, a first clamping plate 13, and a buffer spring 14. The upper part 300 of the multiple self-locking hooks 3 is provided with several equally spaced second mounting ports 11, which are obliquely distributed along the direction of the upper part 300. The lower part 301 of the multiple self-locking hooks 3 is provided with several equally spaced third mounting ports 12, the diameter of which matches the diameter of the first mounting ports 10. The third mounting ports 12 are vertically distributed along the direction of the lower part 301. A cavity 35 is provided on the inner wall of the bottom end of the lower part 301, and a first clamping plate 13 is slidably disposed within the cavity 35. One end of the first clamping plate 13 is connected to the cavity 35. Several buffer springs 14 are evenly distributed between the inner walls of cavity 35. One end of the buffer spring 14 is fixedly connected to the first clamping plate 13, and the other end is fixedly connected to the inner wall of cavity 35. The oblique distribution of the second mounting port 11 and the vertical distribution of the third mounting port 12 increase the height adjustment capability of the self-locking hook 3, which can adapt to various complex shapes of forgings and ensure that the self-locking hook 3 is in close contact with the forging. The setting of the first clamping plate 13 and the buffer springs 14 enables the self-locking hook 3 to automatically adjust the clamping force according to the surface shape of the forging when clamping the forging, which not only ensures the clamping effect, but also avoids damage to the surface of the forging due to excessive clamping force, effectively improving the adaptability and protection performance of the lifting device to different forgings.

[0040] The limiting component includes a limiting post 15, a second limiting block 16, a threaded rod 17, and a sliding assembly.

Several grab hooks 24 are clamped in the clamping cavity 23 and distributed at equal intervals. U-shaped blocks 25 are fixedly connected to the upper ends of the grab hooks 24. The U-shaped blocks 25 are fixedly connected to the fixing blocks by the first fastening bolts 26. Both ends of the first fastening bolts 26 are threaded with first fastening nuts. The clamping mechanism enables a quick and stable connection between the bearing pipe 2 and the main beam 1. The cooperation between the grab hooks 24 and the clamping cavity 23 makes the bearing pipe 2 easy to install and less prone to loosening. The setting of the first fastening bolts 26 and nuts further enhances the reliability of the connection. During the hoisting process, it ensures a stable connection between the bearing pipe 2 and the main beam 1, effectively transmits the hoisting force, and facilitates the disassembly and installation of the bearing pipe 2, improving equipment maintenance efficiency.

[0043] The tie rod 8 and the adjusting block 4 are connected by a second fastening bolt 27. The two ends of the second fastening bolt 27 are threaded with second fastening nuts.

The support block 31 is slidably connected to the lower end of the connecting plate 32. The auxiliary components provide additional support and fixation for the forging. The second clamping plate 30 clamps the forging from the side, and the support block 31 supports the forging from below. The two work together to form a three-dimensional reinforcement structure for the forging. During the lifting process, it effectively prevents the forging from shaking or tilting, greatly improving the stability and safety of the forging lifting. It is especially suitable for lifting large and irregularly shaped forgings.

[0045] The support block 31 has an L-shaped structure, and a reinforcing cylinder 33 is fixedly connected to one end of the support block 31.

The crane is connected to the bearing pipe 2 through the fourth fastening bolt and the connecting hole 34. The structure of the L-shaped support block 31 can better fit the bottom contour of the forging and provide stable support force. The setting of the reinforcing cylinder 33 realizes the automatic adjustment of the position of the support block 31. The position of the support block 31 can be quickly adjusted according to the lifting requirements of the forging. The connection between the bearing pipe 2 and the crane is simple and reliable, ensuring the effective transmission of force during the lifting process. The cooperation of the three further enhances the stable support of the lifting device for the forging and ensures the safety and stability of the forging during the lifting process.

[0046] The method of using a self-locking lifting device for heat-treated forgings is as follows:

[0047] S1. According to the specifications and shape of the forging to be hoisted, the installation position of the self-locking hook 3 on the main beam 1 is adjusted by the second adjustment mechanism. The limiting post 15 is passed through the first installation port 10 and the third installation port 12, and slides in the slide groove 19 through the sliding plate 18, thereby adjusting the threaded rod 17 to above the limiting post 15. Then, the drive handle 20 is rotated to move the threaded rod 17, thereby fixing the position of the limiting post 15 and thus limiting and fixing the self-locking hook 3.

[0048] S2, the lower ends of multiple grab hooks 24 are inserted into the clamping cavity 23, and then the U-shaped block 25 is fixed to the fixing block by the first fastening bolt 26 and the first fastening nut, thereby completing the connection and fixation between the bearing pipe 2 and the main beam 1. The drive cylinder 5 is started, and the drive cylinder 5 drives the adjusting block 4 to slide on the bearing pipe 2. The adjusting block 4 drives the self-locking hook 3 to rotate through the tie rod 8, thereby exerting an outward force on the inner wall of the forging. Combined with the inward force of the second clamping plate 30 on the forging, the initial self-locking fixation of the forging is completed. Then the crane lifts the forging. When the forging is off the ground, the reinforcement cylinder 33 is started, so that multiple support blocks 31 exert an upward support force on the forging, further increasing the stability of the forging when it moves.

[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the above descriptions are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
