Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of workshop transportation equipment, and relates to a track crossing device and a use method. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the production scene of a workshop, a track transport vehicle is often arranged for material transfer. After the track is installed on the ground, a groove is formed on one side of the two tracks to adapt to the track wheels of the track transport vehicle. However, the groove will hinder other vehicles moving vertically or crossing the track direction. When the vehicle passes through the groove, it will produce obvious bumping, which seriously affects the running stability, and may even cause material overturning, equipment damage and other problems.
[0003] In the prior art, there are many deficiencies in the solutions to the track crossing or groove problem. For example, some solutions use movable rail sections to switch track paths, but they need manual or electric drive control, and the structure is complex, with high maintenance cost. Another solution is to add a cross-rail platform to realize vehicle passing, but it cannot adapt to the normal operation of the track transport vehicle, and has poor versatility.
[0004] At present, there is a lack of a device with simple structure, without the need for additional power, which can ensure smooth passage of the track transport vehicle and solve the bumping problem of the groove. SUMMARY
[0005] The purpose of the present application is to provide a track crossing device and a use method to solve the problem of bumping of other vehicles caused by the track groove in the prior art.
[0006] The technical scheme adopted by the present application is as follows:
[0007] A track crossing device, comprising a support bottom plate, a support rod, a rotary support structure, a reset structure, a left trigger mechanism and a right trigger mechanism. The support rod is arranged above the support bottom plate and is used to fill the track groove to provide a support surface for other vehicles. The fixed end of the rotary support structure is fixedly connected with the support bottom plate, the rotating end is rotatably connected with the support rod, and the connection center axis of the rotating end and the support rod is offset to the right relative to the connection center axis of the rotating end and the support bottom plate. This offset design cooperates with the reset structure to make the support rod have good stability in the support state and not easily shake or contract due to vehicle rolling.
[0008] One end of the reset structure is fixedly connected with the upper end surface of the support bottom plate, and the other end is connected with the lower end surface of the support rod. The core function of the reset structure is to provide a reset power for the support rod to ensure that the support rod can quickly recover to the support state after the track transport vehicle passes. The fixed end of the left trigger mechanism is fixedly connected with the support bottom plate, the trigger end is used to abut against the track wheel of the track transport vehicle, and the transmission end is connected with one end of the support rod. When the track transport vehicle drives from left to right, the support rod is driven to contract through the left trigger mechanism.
[0009] The fixed end of the right trigger mechanism is fixedly connected with the support bottom plate, and the rotating end is abutted with the other end of the support rod, the right trigger mechanism is provided with a torsion assembly, the rotating end is always rotated to the direction of the support rod by the torsion assembly, and the force generated by the torsion assembly is smaller than the force generated by the reset structure, so that the right trigger mechanism can trigger the contraction of the support rod, and the stability of the support rod is avoided from being affected.
[0010] Further, the device further comprises a starting structure, the starting structure comprises a fixed column and a starting spring, the lower end of the fixed column is fixed with the support bottom plate, and the lower end of the starting spring is fixed to the fixed column, and the upper end is left with a gap from the lower end surface of the support rod. When the support rod is contracted, the starting spring is compressed, and the starting spring can assist the reset structure to provide an initial reset power for the support rod, so as to speed up the reset speed.
[0011] Further, the rotary support structure comprises a rotary support seat and a rotary support block, the rotary support seat is fixed with the support bottom plate, and the rotary support block is rotatably connected with the rotary support seat and the support rod at two ends, respectively, the offset angle of the connecting central shaft is 5-30°, and the angle range can ensure the support stability and contraction flexibility of the support rod. The right part of the rotary support block is provided with a first limiting block, which cooperates with the rotary support seat to limit the deflection angle, and further improves the support stability.
[0012] Further, the reset structure comprises a fixed block and a reset tension spring, the reset tension spring is detachably installed between two adjacent fixed blocks, the force generated by the reset tension spring is greater than the sum of the friction force of the left trigger mechanism and the left pushing force of the right trigger mechanism, so that the support rod can be smoothly reset against the resistance.
[0013] Further, the left trigger mechanism comprises a left trigger rod base, a left trigger rod and a connecting rod, the top of the left trigger rod is in an arc structure, so as to reduce the wear of the track wheel; the right trigger mechanism comprises a right trigger rod base, a right trigger rod and a torsion spring, the top of the right trigger rod is in a circular structure, the second limiting block is arranged on the support bottom plate and used for limiting the rotation angle of the right trigger rod, and the jamming is avoided.
[0014] Further, the application further discloses a use method of the track passing device, which comprises five steps of installing the device, passing the track transport vehicle from left to right and triggering contraction, resetting the support rod, passing the track transport vehicle from right to left and triggering contraction, and resetting the support rod, so that the track transport vehicle and other vehicles can pass without obstacles.
[0015] The working principle of the application is as follows: the core working principle of the device is to realize the automatic switching of the support rod between the contraction state and the support state through the linkage of the mechanical structure. When the track transport vehicle passes, the pressure of the track wheel triggers the left trigger mechanism or the right trigger mechanism, so that the support rod overcomes the pulling force of the reset structure and rotates to the left and downward through the rotary support structure to the contraction state, so as to leave a passing space for the track wheel.
[0016] The right offset design of the connecting center axis of the rotary support structure is the key to realize stable support. The offset cooperates with the tension of the reset structure to form a stable mechanical balance of the support rod in the support state, so that even if it is rolled by other vehicles, it will not easily deflect or contract. At the same time, the first limiting block further limits the deflection angle of the rotary support block to ensure the stability of the support state.
[0017] The reset structure provides a continuous reset tension to the support rod, which drives the support rod to reset after the track transport vehicle passes. The starting spring of the starting structure accumulates energy when the support rod contracts, assists in resetting, speeds up the resetting speed, and avoids affecting the subsequent vehicle passing.
[0018] The twisting component of the right trigger mechanism ensures that the right trigger rod always adheres to the support rod, ensuring that the track transport vehicle can effectively trigger contraction when driving from right to left, and the force of the twisting component is less than that of the reset structure, avoiding affecting the stable support of the support rod. The arc-shaped top of the left trigger mechanism and the circular top of the right trigger mechanism both reduce contact wear with the track wheels to prolong the service life of the device.
[0019] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solutions, the beneficial effects of the present application are:
[0020] 1. An orbital rail crossing device and method of use, through the design of an offset angle of 5-30° of the rotary support structure, cooperating with the tension of the reset spring, so that the support rod forms a stable mechanical balance in the support state, the maximum deflection amount is ≤0.4mm when the vehicle is rolled, and the reset time is ≤1.5s, completely solving the bumping problem caused by the track groove and ensuring the smooth passing of the vehicle.
[0021] 2. In the present application, the reset spring adopts a reasonable tension range of 500-2000N, which can overcome the friction and thrust of the device, and avoid stress failure, with a reset success rate of 100%, and can withstand 100,000 cycles of use, meeting the high-frequency passing demand of the workshop.
[0022] 3. In the present application, Q355 steel, 304 stainless steel, Q235 steel and other materials are provided for selection, which are suitable for different workshop scenes such as heavy load high frequency, humid corrosion, light load simple and other different workshop scenes, improving the versatility and applicability of the device.
[0023] 4. In the present application, under extreme working conditions such as 1.5 times rated load vehicle rolling and 100,000 cycles of operation, the core component has a small deformation amount and a performance decay rate ≤8%, and can still maintain stable support and switching function, with a service life of 5-10 years, significantly improving the reliability of the device.
[0024] 5. In the application, a pure mechanical structure is adopted, no external power is needed, the installation and maintenance cost is 60% lower than that of the existing electric reset device; the core component structure is simple, easy to disassemble and replace, and the workshop operation and maintenance cost is greatly reduced.

[0083] Test equipment: high-precision angle sensor, force sensor, displacement measuring instrument, and load vehicle (rated load 5t).
[0084] Test condition: install the 6 groups of samples in the track groove, and use the rated load vehicle to vertically crush the support rod at a speed of 5km / h, record the maximum deflection of the support rod, the reset time, and the support stability score (full score 10 points, no shaking 10 points, slight shaking 7-9 points, obvious shaking 4-6 points, and serious shaking 0-3 points).
[0085] Table 1 (experimental results of experimental example 1)
[0086]
[0087] Experimental conclusion
[0088] When the offset angle is in the range of 5-30°, the maximum deflection of the support rod is ≤0.4mm, the reset time is ≤1.5s, and the support stability score is ≥8, meeting the requirements of smooth vehicle passage in the workshop; among them, 15° is the optimal angle, and the support stability is the best. When the offset angle is less than 5°, the support stability is poor, and the vehicle rolling is prone to shaking; when it is greater than 30°, the deflection increases and the reset efficiency decreases, so it is determined that 5-30° is a reasonable parameter range.
[0089] Experimental example 2: Test of reset spring tension value range
[0090] Experimental purpose
[0091] Determine the reasonable tension range of the reset spring to ensure that both the device friction and thrust can be overcome and fast and reliable reset can be achieved.
[0092] Experimental conditions
[0093] Test sample: 5 groups of rail crossing devices were prepared, with reset spring tension of 300N, 500N, 1000N, 2000N and 2500N, and the rest of the structure being consistent.
[0094] Test equipment: tension meter, timer, rail transport vehicle (self weight 3t).
[0095] Test conditions: the rail transport vehicle passed through the rail crossing device from the left and right sides respectively, and the success rate of reset after the contraction of the support rod, the reset time and the fatigue life of the spring (whether it failed after 100,000 cycles of contraction and reset) were recorded.
[0096] Table 2 (experimental results of experimental example 2)
[0097]
[0098] Experimental conclusion
[0099] When the reset spring tension is in the range of 500-2000N, the reset success rate is ≥98%, the average reset time is ≤1.5s, and it can withstand 10 million cycles of use, meeting the requirements of high frequency passage in the workshop. When the tension is less than 500N, it cannot completely overcome the device friction and thrust, and the reset success rate is low; when the tension is greater than 2000N, the spring stress is too large and is prone to breakage, so it is determined that 500-2000N is a reasonable tension range, and 1000N is the optimal tension value, taking into account the reset efficiency and service life.

[0109] Experimental conclusion
[0110] Q355 steel has high yield strength, good wear resistance, and moderate cost, making it suitable for most heavy-duty and high-frequency traffic scenarios, making it the preferred material.
[0111] 304 stainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance and long service life, making it suitable for humid and corrosive gas workshop environments, but it is more expensive.
[0112] Q235 steel is low in cost but has poor strength and wear resistance, making it suitable for light-duty and low-frequency traffic in simple workshop scenarios.

[0125] III. Comparative example
[0126] Comparative example 1: track passing device without offset angle
[0127] The connection center axis of the rotary support structure is set to 0° offset angle, and the rest of the structure is consistent with the patent.
[0128] Test results: the maximum deflection of the support rod is 1.8 mm when the vehicle is rolling, and the reset time is 2.3 s, and after multiple uses, the support is unstable and stuck.
[0129] Comparative conclusion: the offset angle design (5-30°) of the patent is the key technical feature to achieve stable support, which is significantly better than the structure without offset angle.
[0130] Comparative example 2: existing electric reset track passing device (CN106629390A)
[0131] The reset structure of the existing technology adopts electric push rod + spring, which is compared with the pure mechanical reset structure of the patent.
[0132] Test results: the electric reset device needs external power supply, the installation and maintenance cost is high, and it cannot reset after power failure; the patent does not need external power, the installation and maintenance cost is 60% lower than that, and it can still work normally under the condition of power failure and fault.
[0133] Comparative conclusion: the pure mechanical reset structure of the patent is significantly better than the existing electric reset device in economy and reliability.
[0134] Comparative example 3: track passing device with insufficient reset tension spring tension
[0135] The reset tension spring tension is set to 300 N (lower than the 500 N lower limit of the patent), and the rest of the structure is consistent.
[0136] Test result: reset success rate is only 75%, in some cases, the support rod can not be fully reset, resulting in vehicle passing jolt; 100,000 cycles after the deformation of the spring failure.
[0137] Comparative conclusion: the 500-2000N tension range defined in the patent is the key to ensure the reset reliability and service life, and insufficient tension will seriously affect the performance of the device.
[0138] Comparative example 4: ordinary cast iron material over rail device
[0139] The support bottom plate and the support rod are made of ordinary cast iron material, and the rest of the structure is consistent with the patent.
[0140] Test result: after 200 times of rolling of overweight vehicles, cracks appear on the support rod; after 10,000 cycles of operation, the support bottom plate is severely worn and cannot be used normally.
[0141] Comparative conclusion: the Q355 steel and 304 stainless steel material preferred in the patent are significantly better than ordinary cast iron in strength and wear resistance, and can meet the long-term use requirements.
[0142] The above is only the preferred embodiment, experimental example, comparative example of the present application, and does not limit the protection scope of the present application, any modification, equivalent replacement and improvement made by those skilled in the art within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
