Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of glass installation auxiliary equipment, specifically relating to a glass installation trolley for the inner wall of a horizontal channel and an installation method using the installation trolley. Background Technology

[0002] In modern engineering, the installation, dismantling and replacement of inorganic or organic glass are frequently encountered. In particular, the construction process often involves a large amount of glass installation work. Small-sized and lightweight glass can be installed manually, but large-sized and heavy glass cannot be moved manually. Currently, installation is mostly carried out by rigging or simple tools, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive and inefficient.

[0003] Currently, observation glass needs to be installed on the inner walls of the horizontal passageways of some large equipment. It is difficult to install the observation glass using traditional strapping and hoisting methods within the horizontal passageway. Usually, simple auxiliary fixtures are used for installation. However, these simple auxiliary fixtures have limited functions, few adjustment options, poor adaptability, and are extremely inconvenient to use, resulting in low installation efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem of low efficiency in installing glass in horizontal channels, and to provide a glass installation trolley and installation method for the inner wall of a horizontal channel, thereby improving installation efficiency.

[0005] The technical solution adopted in this invention is as follows: a horizontal channel inner wall glass installation trolley, including a frame, a traveling mechanism, end lifting frames, a scissor mechanism, a side suction cup module, a horizontal telescopic mechanism, a middle lifting frame, a lifting mechanism, an upper suction cup module, a lower suction cup module, and a manual pump; traveling mechanisms are respectively provided at both ends of the frame, and the traveling mechanisms are slidably connected to the frame through the horizontal telescopic mechanism that extends laterally, and universal wheels are provided at the bottom of the traveling mechanisms; an end lifting frame is respectively provided at both ends of the frame, and the end lifting frames are vertically guided and connected to the traveling mechanisms; a scissor mechanism is hinged between the traveling mechanism and the frame, and the scissor mechanism is hinged to the end lifting frames through an adjusting arm; the side suction cup module is rotatably connected to the end lifting frames through a rotating connection mechanism; the middle lifting frame is connected to the frame through a vertically extending lifting mechanism; the upper suction cup module is detachably installed on the upper end face of the middle lifting frame; the lower suction cup module is fixedly installed on the support leg at the lower end of the middle lifting frame; the manual pump provides power to the lifting mechanism.

[0006] Furthermore, the horizontal telescopic mechanism includes a first worm, a first worm wheel, a screw, a left-hand nut, and a right-hand nut; the first worm is rotatably mounted on the frame and extends longitudinally at both ends, with a first handle at one end; the first worm is a double-ended worm with two identical helical segments; there are two first worm wheels, which mesh with the two helical segments on the first worm, driving them to rotate synchronously; the screw has symmetrically arranged left-hand and right-hand threaded segments with opposite directions of rotation at both ends; each first worm wheel is fixedly connected to one screw, and the two screws are arranged in the middle of the frame and extend laterally, with their threaded segments of the same direction located on the same side; the left-hand nut is fitted on the left-hand threaded segment of the screw, and the right-hand nut is fitted on the right-hand threaded segment, with the left-hand nut and right-hand nut respectively fixedly connected to the corresponding walking mechanism.

[0007] Furthermore, two sets of the aforementioned scissor fork mechanisms are arranged at both ends of the frame laterally, with the two sets of scissor fork mechanisms at each end distributed on both sides of the frame longitudinally, and the two sets of scissor fork mechanisms are connected by a longitudinal connecting rod.

[0008] Furthermore, the scissor lift mechanism includes a short rod and a long rod. The top end of the short rod is hinged to the central hinge point of the long rod, and the bottom end of the short rod is hinged to the top end of the traveling mechanism. The bottom end of the long rod is hinged to the top end of the frame. The line connecting the hinge points of the short rod and the traveling mechanism, and the hinge points of the long rod and the frame, is parallel to the horizontal extension direction of the traveling mechanism and perpendicular to the lifting direction of the end lifting frame. The distance between the two hinge points of the short rod is equal to the distance between the central hinge point and the bottom hinge point of the long rod, and also equal to the distance between the central hinge point and the top hinge point of the long rod.

[0009] Furthermore, the rotary connection mechanism includes a second worm and a second worm wheel. A laterally extending rotating shaft is provided on the back side of the side suction cup module, and the second worm wheel is fixed on the rotating shaft of the side suction cup module. The second worm is rotatably disposed on the back side of the end lifting frame, with both ends extending longitudinally, and one end is provided with a second handle. The second worm and the second worm wheel mesh with each other.

[0010] Furthermore, a tray is provided at the lower end of the side suction cup module, and the bottom end of the glass adsorbed on the side suction cup module is supported on the tray.

[0011] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism includes linkage groups symmetrically arranged on both longitudinal sides of the vehicle frame. Each linkage group on each side includes a first linkage, a second linkage, a third linkage, a fourth linkage, a fifth linkage, a sixth linkage, a seventh linkage, an eighth linkage, a ninth linkage, a tenth linkage, a first horizontal linkage, and a second horizontal linkage. The bottom ends of the first linkage and the eighth linkage are hinged to the vehicle frame. The top end of the first linkage is hinged to one end of the first horizontal linkage, and the top end of the eighth linkage is hinged to the other end of the first horizontal linkage. The first linkage, the eighth linkage, the vehicle frame, and the first horizontal linkage form a first parallelogram. The bottom ends of the second linkage and the seventh linkage are both hinged to the vehicle frame. The top end of the second linkage is hinged to one end of the second horizontal linkage, and the top end of the seventh linkage is hinged to the other end of the second horizontal linkage. The second linkage, the seventh linkage, the vehicle frame, and the second horizontal linkage form a second parallelogram. The top ends of the third and sixth links are hinged to the intermediate lifting frame. The bottom end of the third link is hinged to one end of the first horizontal link, and the bottom end of the sixth link is hinged to the other end of the first horizontal link. The third link, the sixth link, the intermediate lifting frame, and the first horizontal link form a third parallelogram. The top ends of the fourth and fifth links are hinged to the intermediate lifting frame. The bottom end of the fifth link is hinged to one end of the second horizontal link, and the fourth link is hinged to the other end of the second horizontal link. The fourth link, the fifth link, the intermediate lifting frame, and the second horizontal link form a fourth parallelogram. The hinge points connecting the first, second, seventh, and eighth links to the vehicle frame are located in the same horizontal plane. The first, second, third, and fourth parallelograms are congruent. One end of the ninth link is hinged to the middle of the first link, one end of the tenth link is hinged to the middle hinge point of the second link, and the other end of the ninth link is hinged to the other end of the tenth link. The distance between the two hinge points of the ninth link is equal to the distance between the two hinge points of the tenth link. The distance from the middle hinge point of the first link to the bottom hinge point of the first link is equal to the distance from the middle hinge point of the second link to the bottom hinge point of the second link. A vertical guide device is provided at the hinge point of the ninth and tenth links. A first connecting rod is connected between the outer hinge points of the first horizontal links on both sides. A second connecting rod is connected between the outer hinge points of the second horizontal links on both sides. An actuator that extends and retracts laterally is connected between the first and second connecting rods. By controlling the extension and retraction of the actuator, the lifting mechanism is vertically raised and lowered.

[0012] Furthermore, the upper suction cup module has various height specifications and is fixed to the upper end face of the intermediate lifting frame by bolt connection.

[0013] The installation method using the aforementioned horizontal channel inner wall glass mounting trolley includes the following steps:

[0014] S1: Outside the channel, the top glass, bottom glass, left glass and right glass to be installed are respectively attached and fixed by the upper suction cup module, the lower suction cup module and the two side suction cup modules; and the trolley is retracted to its minimum size by using the horizontal telescopic mechanism and the lifting mechanism.

[0015] S2: The operator pushes the trolley, and moves the trolley to the predetermined installation position in the horizontal channel through the casters at the bottom of the walking mechanism; the casters are equipped with brakes.

[0016] S3: The mobile trolley is initially aligned with the installation positions of the top and bottom glass;

[0017] S4: Operate the manual pump to drive the actuator to control the lifting mechanism, drive the intermediate lifting frame to lift, precisely adjust the installation height of the bottom glass, fix the bottom glass to the window frame on the bottom wall of the channel, release the vacuum adsorption of the bottom glass by the lower suction cup module, and complete the installation of the bottom glass.

[0018] S5: Operate the manual pump to drive the actuator to control the lifting mechanism, drive the intermediate lifting frame to lift, precisely adjust the installation height of the top glass, fix the top glass to the window frame on the top wall of the channel, and release the suction cup from the top glass.

[0019] S6: Drive the walking mechanism to extend and retract, adjust the glass on both sides to be at the same height as the side window frame, then operate the rotating connection mechanism to adjust the angle of the side suction cup module in the vertical plane. After the adjustment is in place, push the trolley so that the corresponding glass enters the window frame of the side wall of the channel.

[0020] S7: After fixing the left or right glass to the window frame on the side wall of the passage, release the vacuum adsorption of the suction cup module to complete the installation.

[0021] Furthermore, in S3, the longitudinal movement of the trolley is used to adjust the longitudinal position of the top and bottom glass. The lateral position adjustment of the top and bottom glass is achieved through the extension and retraction of the traveling mechanism. Specifically, the operation is as follows: First, brake the universal wheel on one side of the trolley, operate the horizontal extension and retraction mechanism to extend and retract the traveling mechanism on the other side, then brake the universal wheel on the other side of the trolley, release the universal wheel on one side, operate the horizontal extension and retraction mechanism to extend and retract the traveling mechanism on one side, and so on until it is aligned.

[0022] The beneficial effects of this invention are: by setting up a side suction cup module, an upper suction cup module and a lower suction cup module, this invention can carry glass from four directions at once for installation, simplifying the traditional operation that requires multiple round trips into a single operation, improving installation efficiency and greatly shortening the construction period.

[0023] It integrates three degrees of freedom adjustment functions: horizontal extension, vertical lifting, and angle rotation, solving the problem of precise positioning of large-size glass in confined spaces. It has high installation accuracy and strong operational adaptability.

[0024] The vacuum suction cups employ negative pressure adsorption, ensuring a smooth and safe handling process and avoiding the risks associated with manual support. The parallelogram lifting mechanism guarantees a smooth and safe lifting process without shaking or tipping.

[0025] Modular design (such as replaceable upper suction cup modules) allows a single set of equipment to adapt to horizontal channels of various cross-sectional sizes, making it highly versatile and reducing equipment investment costs. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0032] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0033] The terms "up," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," and "bottom," etc., indicate directions or positional relationships based on the appendix. Figure 5 The orientations or positional relationships shown are for ease of description of the invention only and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as limiting the invention. The directions indicated by "longitudinal," "lateral," and "vertical" are perpendicular to each other. Figure 5 In the diagram, "longitudinal" refers to the extension direction of the horizontal channel, which is also the length direction of frame 1; "lateral" refers to the width direction of the horizontal channel, which is also the width direction of frame 1; and "vertical" refers to the height direction of the horizontal channel, which is also the height direction of frame 1.

[0034] Horizontal channel inner wall glass installation trolley, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes a frame 1, a walking mechanism 2, an end lifting frame 3, a scissor fork mechanism 22, a side suction cup module 4, a horizontal telescopic mechanism 5, a middle lifting frame 6, a lifting mechanism 7, an upper suction cup module 8, a lower suction cup module 10, and a manual pump 9.

[0035] The frame 1 serves as the basic framework of the entire device. A traveling mechanism 2 is installed at each end of the frame 1. The traveling mechanism 2 is slidably connected to the frame 1 via a horizontal telescopic mechanism 5 that extends laterally. Universal wheels are installed at the bottom of the traveling mechanism 2.

[0036] At each end of the frame 1, an end lifting frame 3 is provided, and the end lifting frame 3 is vertically guided and connected to the traveling mechanism 2. This guiding connection means that the end lifting frame 3 and the traveling mechanism 2 are vertically movable through a guiding mechanism. This guiding mechanism can be a roller, guide rail, guide rod, etc. Figure 1 In the disclosed embodiments, the guiding mechanism includes a vertically extending chute fixed to the walking mechanism 2 and sliders on both sides of the end lifting frame 3, with the sliders slidingly engaging with the chute.

[0037] A scissor lift mechanism 22 is hinged between the traveling mechanism 2 and the frame 1, and the scissor lift mechanism 22 is hinged to the end lifting frame 3 via an adjusting arm 224. The adjusting arm 224 effectively eliminates manufacturing errors, facilitates equipment assembly, and prevents jamming during lifting. Thus, when the traveling mechanism 2 extends or retracts laterally, it forces the scissor lift mechanism 22 to extend or retract, thereby driving the end lifting frame 3 to achieve lifting movement.

[0038] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the side suction cup module 4 is used to adsorb the side glass. It is connected to the end lifting frame 3 through a rotating connection mechanism to achieve a rotational connection around the horizontal axis, thereby driving the side suction cup module 4 to rotate around the horizontal axis to adjust the angle, so as to ensure that the glass is aligned with the window frame.

[0039] The intermediate lifting frame 6 is connected to the frame 1 via a vertically extending lifting mechanism 7; the upper suction cup module 8 is detachably installed on the upper surface of the intermediate lifting frame 6; the lower suction cup module is fixedly installed on the support leg 61 at the lower end of the intermediate lifting frame 6. The upper suction cup module 8 is used to adsorb the top glass, and the lower suction cup module is used to adsorb the bottom glass. The manual pump 9 provides power to the lifting mechanism 7, that is, the manual pump 9 controls the vertical extension and retraction of the lifting mechanism 7, thereby driving the intermediate lifting frame 6 to achieve lifting and lowering. The horizontal channel inner wall glass installation trolley disclosed in this invention can carry and install four pieces of glass (upper, lower, left, and right) simultaneously at one time. The horizontal channel inner wall glass installation trolley greatly reduces the number of times the equipment enters and exits the channel and the amount of manual handling work, thus improving installation efficiency. The universal wheel design at the bottom of the walking mechanism 2 makes the trolley move flexibly and adaptably in the channel.

[0040] The horizontal telescopic mechanism 5 can be a motor, hydraulic cylinder, electric push rod, etc. In this embodiment, the horizontal telescopic mechanism 5 includes a first worm 51, a first worm wheel 52, a screw 53, a left-hand nut 54, and a right-hand nut 55. The first worm 51 is rotatably mounted on the frame 1 and extends longitudinally at both ends, with a first handle 511 at one end. The first worm 51 is a double-headed worm with two identical helical segments. There are two first worm wheels 52, which mesh with the two helical segments on the first worm 51 respectively, and the two first worm wheels 52 are driven to rotate synchronously by the first worm 51. One end of the screw 53 is provided with a left-hand threaded segment, and the other end is provided with a right-hand threaded segment. The left-hand threaded segment and the right-hand threaded segment have opposite directions of rotation and are symmetrical about the center of the screw 53. Each first worm gear 52 is fixedly connected to one of the screws 53. Two screws 53 are arranged in the middle of the frame 1 and extend laterally, with their threaded sections of the same direction located on the same side. A left-handed nut 54 is fitted onto the left-handed threaded section of the screw 53, and a right-handed nut 55 is fitted onto the right-handed threaded section. The left-handed nut 54 and the right-handed nut 55 are respectively fixedly connected to the corresponding side of the traveling mechanism 2. A linear guide structure is provided between the traveling mechanism 2 and the frame 1. For example, if the crossbar of the frame 1 is a square tube, a transverse square guide rod 21 is fixed on the traveling mechanism 2. The guide rod 21 is adapted to the square tube and movably inserted into the square tube of the frame 1. By rotating the first handle 511, the first worm gear 51 is rotated, synchronously driving the two first worm gears 52, which in turn drive the two screws 53 to rotate. Since the screw 53 is machined with left-hand and right-hand threads, and is respectively fitted with a left-hand nut 54 and a right-hand nut 55, the rotation of the screw will be converted into the linear motion of the nuts, thereby driving the traveling mechanisms 2 at both ends to achieve precise and synchronous lateral extension and retraction along the guide rod 21.

[0041] The transmission method employing a worm gear drive for left and right helical screws achieves synchronous and symmetrical extension and retraction of the walking mechanism 2, ensuring absolute consistency in the movement of both sides of the trolley and avoiding glass jamming or misalignment caused by asynchrony, resulting in high positioning accuracy. The self-locking property of the worm gear ensures lateral locking of the walking mechanism 2, enhancing the safety of the trolley.

[0042] Two sets of scissor fork mechanisms 22 are arranged at both ends of the frame 1 in the lateral direction. The two sets of scissor fork mechanisms 22 at each end are distributed on both sides of the frame 1 in the longitudinal direction, and the two sets of scissor fork mechanisms 22 are connected by a longitudinal connecting rod 221 to achieve synchronous movement.

[0043] The scissor lift mechanism 22 includes a short rod 222 and a long rod 223. The top end of the short rod 222 is hinged to the central hinge point of the long rod 223, and the bottom end of the short rod 222 is hinged to the top end of the traveling mechanism 2. The bottom end of the long rod 223 is hinged to the top end of the frame 1. The lines connecting the hinge points of the short rod 222 and the traveling mechanism 2, and the hinge points of the long rod 223 and the frame 1, are parallel to the horizontal extension / retraction direction of the traveling mechanism 2 and perpendicular to the lifting / retraction direction of the end lifting frame 3. The distance between the two hinge points of the short rod 222 is equal to the distance between the central hinge point and the bottom hinge point of the long rod 223, and also equal to the distance between the central hinge point and the top hinge point of the long rod 223. Through the scissor lift mechanism 22, the end lifting frame 3 rises and falls with the extension / retraction of the traveling mechanism 2.

[0044] Preferably, the rotary connection mechanism includes a second worm 31 and a second worm wheel 41. The side suction cup module 4 has a laterally extending rotating shaft on its back side, and the second worm wheel 41 is fixed on the rotating shaft of the side suction cup module 4. The second worm 31 is rotatably disposed on the back side of the end lifting frame 3, with both ends extending longitudinally, and one end is provided with a second handle 311. The second worm 31 and the second worm wheel 41 mesh with each other.

[0045] The second worm gear 41 can be driven to rotate by operating the second handle 311 on the second worm gear 31, thereby driving the side suction cup module 4 to rotate horizontally. It has a large transmission ratio and good self-locking performance, which can not only meet the angle adjustment needs when installing glass on the left and right sides, but also automatically lock after adjustment to ensure construction safety.

[0046] In order to ensure that the glass does not slip during transportation and to reduce the load on the side suction cup module 4 to a certain extent, a tray is provided at the lower end of the side suction cup module 4, and the bottom end of the glass adsorbed on the side suction cup module 4 is supported on the tray.

[0047] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the lifting mechanism 7 includes linkage groups symmetrically arranged on both longitudinal sides of the frame 1. Each linkage group includes a first linkage 701, a second linkage 702, a third linkage 703, a fourth linkage 704, a fifth linkage 705, a sixth linkage 706, a seventh linkage 707, an eighth linkage 708, a ninth linkage 709, a tenth linkage 710, a first horizontal linkage 711, and a second horizontal linkage 712. The bottom ends of the first linkage 701 and the eighth linkage 708 are hinged to the frame 1. The top end of the first linkage 701 is hinged to one end of the first horizontal linkage 711, and the top end of the eighth linkage 708 is hinged to the other end of the first horizontal linkage 711. The first linkage 701, the eighth linkage 708, the frame 1, and the first horizontal linkage 711 form a first parallelogram. The bottom ends of the second link 702 and the seventh link 707 are both hinged to the frame 1. The top end of the second link 702 is hinged to one end of the second horizontal link 712, and the top end of the seventh link 707 is hinged to the other end of the second horizontal link 712. The second link 702, the seventh link 707, the frame 1, and the second horizontal link 712 form a second parallelogram. The top ends of the third link 703 and the sixth link 706 are hinged to the intermediate lifting frame 6. The bottom end of the third link 703 is hinged to one end of the first horizontal link 711, and the bottom end of the sixth link 706 is hinged to the other end of the first horizontal link 711. The third link 703, the sixth link 706, the intermediate lifting frame 6, and the first horizontal link 711 form a third parallelogram. The top ends of the fourth link 704 and the fifth link 705 are hinged to the intermediate lifting frame 6. The bottom end of the fifth link 705 is hinged to one end of the second horizontal link 712, and the other end of the fourth link 704 is hinged to the second horizontal link 712. The fourth link 704, the fifth link 705, the intermediate lifting frame 6 and the second horizontal link 712 form a fourth parallelogram.

[0048] The hinge points connecting the first link 701, the second link 702, the seventh link 707, and the eighth link 708 to the frame 1 are located in the same horizontal plane to ensure that the intermediate lifting frame 6 is horizontal.

[0049] The first, second, third, and fourth parallelograms are congruent. The distances between the hinge points at both ends of the first link 701, second link 702, third link 703, fourth link 704, fifth link 705, sixth link 706, seventh link 707, and eighth link 708 are equal. For example, for the first link 701, the distance from the hinge point connecting the first link 701 to the first horizontal link 711 to the hinge point connecting the first link 701 to the frame 1 is the distance between the hinge points at both ends of the first link 701. The same principle applies to the others.

[0050] One end of the ninth link 709 is hinged to the middle of the first link 701, and one end of the tenth link 710 is hinged to the middle hinge point of the second link 702. The other end of the ninth link 709 is hinged to the other end of the tenth link 710. The distance between the two hinge points of the ninth link 709 and the distance between the two hinge points of the tenth link 710 are equal. The distance from the middle hinge point of the first link 701 to the bottom hinge point of the first link 701 is equal to the distance from the middle hinge point of the second link 702 to the bottom hinge point of the second link 702, to ensure lifting reliability and avoid lifting jamming. A vertical guide device is provided at the hinge point of the ninth link 709 and the tenth link 710; the vertical guide device can be a roller, guide rail, or guide rod, used to limit the movement trajectory of the hinge point between the ninth link 709 and the tenth link 710 to a vertical straight line. This ensures that the lifting frame 6 moves on a purely vertical straight line without any form of overturning. Figure 4 In the disclosed embodiments, a vertically extending U-shaped guide groove is provided on the frame 1, and a roller matching the guide groove is disposed in the guide groove as a vertical guiding device.

[0051] A first connecting rod 713 is connected between the outer hinge points of the first horizontal connecting rods 711 on both sides; a second connecting rod 714 is connected between the outer hinge points of the second horizontal connecting rods 712 on both sides; an actuator 715 that extends and retracts laterally is connected between the first connecting rod 713 and the second connecting rod 714, and the lifting mechanism 7 is vertically lifted and lowered by controlling the extension and retraction of the actuator 715.

[0052] Of the hinge points at both ends of the first horizontal link 711, the one located on the long diagonal of the parallelogram it contains is the outer hinge point of the first horizontal link 711. Of the hinge points at both ends of the second horizontal link 712, the one located on the long diagonal of the parallelogram it contains is the outer hinge point of the second horizontal link 712.

[0053] The use of multiple sets of parallelogram linkage mechanisms ensures that the intermediate lifting frame maintains a stable horizontal movement during the lifting process, without swaying or tilting. It has a strong load-bearing capacity, ensuring the smooth and safe installation of the top and bottom glass.

[0054] Preferably, the upper suction cup module 8 has multiple height specifications and is fixed to the upper surface of the intermediate lifting frame 6 by bolt connection. The modular design of the upper suction cup module 8 allows for quick adaptation to horizontal channels of different cross-sectional heights by replacing upper suction cup modules 8 of different heights, significantly improving the versatility and application range of the equipment and reducing the user's equipment purchase cost. The lower end of the intermediate lifting frame 6 is provided with multiple support legs 61, and the lower suction cup module is fixedly connected to the lower end of each support leg 61. The lower suction cup module consists of several vacuum suction cups.

[0055] like Figure 5As shown, the installation method using the horizontal channel inner wall glass mounting trolley includes the following steps:

[0056] S1: Outside the channel, the top glass, bottom glass, left glass and right glass to be installed are respectively attached and fixed by the upper suction cup module 8, the lower suction cup module 10 and the two side suction cup modules 4; and the trolley is retracted to its minimum size by the horizontal telescopic mechanism 5 and the lifting mechanism 7.

[0057] S2: The operator pushes the trolley, and moves the trolley to the predetermined installation position in the horizontal channel through the universal wheels at the bottom of the walking mechanism 2; the universal wheels are equipped with a braking function;

[0058] S3: The mobile trolley is initially aligned with the installation positions of the top and bottom glass;

[0059] S4: Operate the manual pump 9 to drive the actuator 715 to control the lifting mechanism 7 to move, drive the intermediate lifting frame 6 to lift, accurately adjust the installation height of the bottom glass, fix the bottom glass to the window frame on the bottom wall of the channel, release the vacuum adsorption of the bottom glass by the lower suction cup module, and complete the installation of the bottom glass.

[0060] S5: Operate the manual pump 9 to drive the actuator 715 to control the lifting mechanism 7 to move, drive the intermediate lifting frame 6 to lift, accurately adjust the installation height of the top glass, fix the top glass to the window frame on the top wall of the channel, and release the suction cup from the top glass.

[0061] S6: Drive the walking mechanism 2 to extend and retract, adjust the glass on both sides to be at the same height as the side window frame, and then operate the rotating connection mechanism to adjust the angle of the side suction cup module 4 in the vertical plane. After the adjustment is in place, push the trolley so that the corresponding glass enters the window frame of the side wall of the passage.

[0062] S7: After fixing the left or right glass to the window frame on the side wall of the passage, release the vacuum adsorption of the suction cup module to complete the installation.

[0063] In S3, the longitudinal movement of the trolley adjusts the longitudinal position of the top and bottom glass. Lateral adjustment of the top and bottom glass is achieved through the extension and retraction of the traveling mechanism 2. Specifically, the operation is as follows: First, brake the swivel wheel on one side of the trolley; then operate the horizontal extension mechanism 5 to extend and retract the traveling mechanism 2 on the other side. Next, brake the swivel wheel on the other side of the trolley, release the swivel wheel on one side, and operate the horizontal extension mechanism 5 to extend and retract the traveling mechanism 2 on that side. This process is repeated until the glass is aligned. The braking function of the swivel wheels facilitates fine-tuning of the glass (especially the top and bottom glass) and locks the trolley position during lifting operations, significantly improving operational stability and safety.

[0064] In this invention, the trolley's walking, telescopic, and lifting actions can all be set to be electrically, pneumatically, or hydraulically driven to save manpower and achieve automated operation.

[0065] The installation method of the horizontal channel inner wall glass installation trolley disclosed in this invention realizes the synchronous transportation and precise sequential installation of four glass panels, optimizes the traditional multiple and high-risk operation process into a single and standardized process, greatly improves installation efficiency and safety, and reduces the skill requirements of operators.

[0066] In the description of this specification, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installed," "equipped with," "connected," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connection" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0067] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
