Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of building construction, and in particular relates to a conveying device for installing a glass curtain wall. Background Art

[0002] A glass curtain wall refers to a building's exterior enclosure or decorative structure, whose supporting structure allows for a certain degree of displacement relative to the main structure and does not share the forces exerted on the main structure. Glass curtain wall installation is generally carried out from top to bottom. During installation, a hoisting device is required to transport the glass curtain wall from the upper level to the lower level. When transporting the glass curtain wall from indoors to outdoors, it needs to be moved from a horizontal position to a nearly vertical position. Due to the curtain wall's large size and the hoisting device's typical use of wire rope for traction, the glass curtain wall can easily tilt and collide with the building. Therefore, at least two workers are required to assist in the transportation. Due to the proximity to the outdoors, even with protective gear, certain safety risks remain. Therefore, a conveying device for glass curtain wall installation has been designed. Summary of the Invention

A guide slideway cooperating with the guide wheel is opened on the inner vertical plate, and the guide slideway includes a horizontal section and an inclined section, and the inclined section is located at the front end of the inner vertical plate and close to the front vertical plate; The two adjusting rods are connected by a supporting plate, and an opening is provided on the front vertical plate to allow the adjusting rods and the supporting plate to pass through, and the supporting plate is provided with a curtain wall fixing structure; Also includes a driving mechanism capable of driving the moving block to reciprocate along the guide rod; When the guide wheel moves along the horizontal section, the gear 1 and the gear 2 are simultaneously engaged with the rack and the connecting rod is in a horizontal state; When the guide wheel moves to the inclined section, the guide wheel moves downward into the inclined section and drives the gear 1 to rotate clockwise. The clockwise rotation of the gear 1 drives the rack to move. During the movement, the rack drives the gear 2 to rotate counterclockwise and the front end of the adjusting rod moves downward.

[0005] The gear 2 generally rotates 90 degrees, and the curtain wall on the support plate realizes the conversion from a horizontal state to a vertical state.

[0006] Furthermore, the driving mechanism is a screw mechanism, the screw is rotatably arranged on the two end vertical plates, the rear end of the screw extends out of the rear end vertical plate and the extended ends are connected to a motor with a reducer, the sliding block is threadedly connected to the screw, and the screw is located between the two guide rods.

[0007] Furthermore, a slide groove cooperating with the rack is provided on the horizontal plate, and a blocking bar is symmetrically provided on the upper portion of the inner wall of the slide groove to prevent the rack from escaping from the upper portion of the slide groove; Stoppers are fixedly provided at both ends of the rack to prevent the rack from escaping from the two ends of the sliding groove.

[0008] Furthermore, the curtain wall fixing structure adopts a suction cup group 1, a plurality of openings are symmetrically arranged on the support plate, a suction cup 1 is arranged at each opening, a suction cup bracket is fixedly arranged under the support plate, and the suction cup 1 is arranged on the suction cup bracket.

[0009] Furthermore, a column is fixedly provided above the rear end vertical plate, the upper ends of the two columns are connected by a longitudinal beam, and a winch is fixedly provided below the longitudinal beam; It also includes a second suction cup group located above the curtain wall, the second suction cup group includes a suction cup mounting frame, and the suction cup mounting frame is provided with a plurality of second suction cups; The rear end of the suction cup mounting frame is fixedly provided with a lifting ring matched with the lifting hook of the winch.

[0010] Furthermore, wheels are rotatably provided at both ends of the outer side of the crossbeam.

[0011] Furthermore, the lifting ring is generally arranged in the middle position or / and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the rear end of the suction cup mounting frame.

[0012] Furthermore, the length of the support plate along the guide rod direction generally does not exceed one third of the curtain wall.

[0013] Furthermore, the suction cups 2 are generally symmetrically arranged on the curtain wall and generally close to the outer edge of the curtain wall. At least four suction cups are provided and located at the four corners of the glass curtain wall.

[0014] Furthermore, vertical limiting plates are provided at the rear ends of the two external connecting plates to limit excessive rotation of the adjusting rod.

[0015] Furthermore, a pad is provided on the supporting plate, and the pad is generally made of rubber.

[0016] How to use: Push the wheels on the outside of the beam and move the device to the edge of the building floor, so that the adjustment rod points outdoors and the rotating part of the adjustment rod extends outside the floor. Place the glass curtain wall horizontally on suction cup group one, with the front end of the support plate slightly extending beyond the front end of the glass curtain wall. Operate the winch to lower suction cup group two to the top of the glass curtain wall and attach suction cup group two to the top of the glass curtain wall. Activate suction cup group one, and suction the bottom of the curtain wall through the opening of the support plate to form a double-safety fixation (upper suction cup group two + lower suction cup group one). Start the motor to drive the lead screw, and the sliding block moves along the guide rod toward the outside of the building; the guide wheel rolls on the horizontal section of the guide slide, and gears one and two simultaneously engage the rack, locking the connecting rod horizontally. At this time, the glass curtain wall maintains a horizontal state and translates stably. When the front end of the glass curtain wall and the support plate exceed the edge of the building, the guide wheel enters the inclined section of the guide slide: the guide wheel moves downward, and the connecting rod drives gear 1 to rotate clockwise; gear 1 drives the rack to move backward, gear 2 rotates counterclockwise, the rotating shaft links the adjustment rod to swing downward, and the support plate and glass curtain wall flip synchronously; because the vertical limit plate constrains the rotation of the adjustment rod, its rotation angle does not exceed 90 degrees; First, release the suction cup set 1 (bottom), then continue to start the winch to move the glass curtain wall down to the installation location. The winch retracts the suction cup set 2, and the device resets for the next cycle.

[0017] The technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention has the beneficial effect of: through the mechanical coupling design of the guide wheel, the guide slide (horizontal section / inclined section) and the gear-rack linkage, the front end of the glass curtain wall is first pushed horizontally out of the floor, and then the two sides of the glass curtain wall are flipped as a whole to avoid the glass curtain wall from tilting on both sides when it is moved out of the floor.
