DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] The following are specific embodiments of the present application, and the technical solutions of the present application are further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present application is not limited to these embodiments, and the following embodiments do not limit the invention involved in the claims. In addition, all combinations of the features described in the embodiments are not necessarily required by the solutions of the invention.

[0031] The principles and structures of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples.

[0032] Example One As shown in Figures 1-7 , a concrete frame equipment hoisting device for the butt joint of an upper and lower cavity 8 of equipment. The hoisting device comprises a centering assembly, which comprises mutually parallel vertical rods 1 located at each corner point of a regular polygon, the regular polygon in this embodiment being a regular hexagon, but it can also be other regular polygons. The vertical rods 1 are provided with sliding sleeves 4 that can freely slide along the vertical rods 1, adjacent vertical rods 1 are connected by a scissors support, and the scissors support comprises two connecting rods 2, which are connected by a middle shaft hinge 19.

[0033] One end of the connecting rod 2 is rotationally connected to one of the two adjacent vertical rods 1 by a positioning shaft hinge 3 whose position is fixed relative to the vertical rod 1, and the sliding sleeve 4 is located above the positioning shaft hinge 3, i.e. the positioning shaft hinge 3 is axially fixed in position relative to the vertical rod 1, while the sliding sleeve 4 is axially movable along the vertical rod 1; the other end of the connecting rod 2 is rotationally connected to the sliding sleeve 4 on the other of the two adjacent vertical rods 1 by a hinge; if the centering assembly is regarded as a structure similar to a hexagonal prism, the vertical rods 1 correspond to the six side edges of the hexagonal prism, and the scissors support is located on the six side faces of the hexagonal prism.

[0034] All vertical rods 1 are of the same shape, all connecting rods 2 are of the same shape, and all positioning shaft hinges 3 are of the same height, i.e. located on the same plane of the vertical rods 1, so that when the sliding sleeve 4 moves along the vertical rods 1, all the vertical rods 1 are synchronously close to or away from the center of the circumscribed circle of the regular hexagon (i.e. the geometric center) in the radial direction of the circumscribed circle, and the vertical rods 1 substantially remain upright during the movement, realizing the radial expansion or contraction of the entire centering assembly.

[0035] Connecting plates 5 with a sixty-degree bend can be provided on the sliding sleeve 4 and the positioning shaft hinge 3, respectively, for rotating the end of the connecting rod 2.

[0036] The adjusting mechanism for controlling the movement of the sliding sleeve 4 relative to the positioning shaft hinge 3 is also included, for example, the adjusting mechanism can be a telescopic rod connected between two vertical rods 1 or a telescopic rod connected between the sliding sleeve 4 and the positioning shaft hinge 3. The telescopic rod can be, for example, a pneumatic cylinder, an electric cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder, etc., but such telescopic rods need to be connected to the gas supply or electric or liquid supply equipment, which is relatively troublesome. Therefore, the adjusting mechanism of the present embodiment includes an upper pull rope 6 and a lower pull rope 7, the lower pull rope 7 is connected to at least two symmetrical sliding sleeves 4, and the upper pull rope 6 is connected to at least two symmetrical positioning shaft hinges 19. When the distance between the vertical rods 1 needs to be increased, the upper pull rope 6 can be pulled by a crane, and the lower pull rope 7 can be pulled by a ground winch, so that the sliding sleeve 4 is close to the positioning shaft hinge 3, thereby expanding the radial direction of the centering assembly, and when the radial direction of the centering assembly needs to be contracted, the lower pull rope 7 can be released to release the downward pulling of the sliding sleeve 4, at this time, under the tendency of the device's own center of gravity moving downward, the vertical rods 1 are close to each other, i.e. the radial direction of the centering assembly is contracted.

[0037] When the device is hoisted, first, the lower cavity 8 is dropped into the concrete frame to be fixed, so that the upper end of the lower cavity 8 is vertically upward; then the lower end of the hoisting device is located in the upper end of the lower cavity 8 by internal support or suspension, so that the upper end of the hoisting device is located outside the upper end of the lower cavity 8, then the upper cavity 9 is hoisted above the lower cavity 8, then the upper cavity 9 is lowered, so that the upper end of the hoisting device enters the lower end of the upper cavity 9, then the vertical rod 1 moves outward in the radial direction until all the vertical rods 1 support the inner walls of the upper and lower cavities 8, at this time, the upper and lower cavities 8 are vertically opposite, then the upper cavity 9 continues to move downward under the guidance of the hoisting device until the lower end is connected with the upper end of the lower cavity 8, then the connection is welded and fixed to complete the hoisting. After the hoisting is completed, the radial contraction of the centering assembly can be reduced, so that the upper pulling rope 6 is hoisted out of the upper end of the device or the device is lowered to the ground below the lower end of the device, realizing the taking out of the device, the centering accuracy is high, the efficiency is fast, and the construction period is shortened.

[0038] The vertical rod 1 is provided with a support end head 12 for supporting the inner wall of the cavity, and the support end heads 12 are located on the same circle in the circumferential direction. The upper end of the vertical rod 1 of the embodiment is fixedly connected with the upper inclined rod 10, and the lower end of the vertical rod 1 is fixedly connected with the lower inclined rod 11; the support end head 12 is arranged at the end of the upper inclined rod 10 and the lower inclined rod 11, so that the support end head 12 is inclined downward relative to the vertical rod 1, improving the downward supporting force. The upper end of the vertical rod 1 is connected with the middle part of the upper inclined rod 10, so that the upper inclined rod 10 has a rod segment inclined upward relative to the center, thereby providing guidance for the device to enter the upper cavity 9. Therefore, during hoisting, the support end head 12 of the lower inclined rod 11 can be first supported on the inner wall of the lower cavity 8, and then the entire device is sleeved to realize centering under the guidance of the upper inclined rod 10.

[0039] Embodiment two As Figure 8 , 9As shown, the adjusting mechanism of the embodiment comprises a center rod 13 located at the geometric center of the regular hexagon, a plurality of parallel rods 14 symmetrically arranged with respect to the center rod 13 and parallel to the vertical rods 1, an upper support rod 15 hingedly connected to the upper ends of the vertical rods 1 and the parallel rods 14, and a lower support rod 16 hingedly connected to the lower ends of the vertical rods 1 and the parallel rods 14; the vertical rods 1, the parallel rods 14, the upper support rod 15 and the lower support rod 16 constitute a parallel four-bar mechanism; further comprising an upper pulling rope 6 and a lower pulling rope 7, the lower pulling rope 7 being connected to at least two symmetric slide sleeves 4, and the upper pulling rope 6 being connected to the center rod 13; thus, not only can the device be controlled to shrink or expand by pulling the upper pulling rope 6 and the lower pulling rope 7 as in the first embodiment, but the upper support rod 15 also guides the movement of the upper cavity 9, i.e. the lower end of the upper cavity 9 can slide downward along the upper support rod 15 after contacting the upper support rod 15, so that the axis of the upper cavity 9 moves to the center rod 13, so that the upper cavity 9 and the lower cavity 8 are coaxial, i.e. the upper and lower cavities 8 are centered.

[0040] In the radial direction, the outer ends of the upper support rod 15 and the lower support rod 16 are provided with support end heads 12 for supporting the inner walls of the cavities, i.e. the support end heads 12 of the embodiment are provided on the ends of the upper and lower support rods 16. As a priority, the support end head 12 at the end of the upper support rod 15 can be a guide wheel 17 to facilitate the guidance of the upward and downward movement of the upper cavity 9, and the support end head 12 at the end of the lower support rod 16 is a fixed friction end head 18, e.g. a rubber block with good friction, to facilitate the support and positioning with respect to the lower cavity 8.

[0041] The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the spirit of the present application. Those skilled in the art of the present application can make various modifications or supplements to the described specific embodiments or replace them with similar ways, without deviating from the spirit of the present application or exceeding the scope defined by the appended claims.
