Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of production line installation technology, and more specifically, to an auxiliary installation device and method for track-type production line equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Track-based production lines utilize long tracks to transport production carriages. A platform is installed above the track in the production section, surrounding the left and right sides and top of the track, such as the horizontal looper in a metallurgical pickling and leveling production line. During equipment installation on track-based production lines, the platform obstructs the movement of equipment between the platform and the track using overhead cranes or truck cranes. Equipment installation is typically done manually using hand tools, dragging the equipment a long distance along the track to the installation position. Because some equipment is long and large, manual handling can easily damage the equipment or the track, resulting in low installation efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the above problems, the purpose of this invention is to provide an auxiliary installation device and method for track-type production line equipment. A temporary trolley is set on the track, and a loading trolley that can directly drive onto the temporary trolley is set outside the platform port. The temporary trolley transports the loading trolley carrying the equipment to the installation position inside the platform, thereby improving the equipment transportation efficiency and stability.

[0004] This invention provides an auxiliary installation device for track-type production line equipment, comprising a temporary trolley and a loading trolley, wherein... The temporary trolley is set on the track, and a transfer rail is set on the side of one port of the platform above the track. The loading trolley is set on the transfer rail, which is perpendicular to the track. An auxiliary rail of the same specifications as the transfer rail is set on the temporary trolley. The auxiliary rail is at the same height as the transfer rail and parallel to it. The loading trolley drives from the transfer rail onto the auxiliary rail. The temporary trolley is connected to the steel cable of a winch located at another port of the platform.

[0005] The temporary trolley includes a transport flatbed supported by a bracket. Two axles are fixed below the bracket, and wheels are provided at both ends of the axles. The wheels are all mounted on the track, and the auxiliary track is mounted on the transport flatbed.

[0006] A stop block is fixed at the end of the auxiliary rail away from the transfer rail, and a car stop block is inserted at the end of the auxiliary rail near the transfer rail. The car stop block includes a rod and a block connected to the rod. After the loading trolley drives onto the auxiliary rail, the insertion rod is inserted into the insertion hole of the transfer rail.

[0007] The two single rails of the transfer rail are respectively set on two support frames. When the auxiliary rail is directly opposite the transfer rail, the auxiliary rail is connected to the transfer rail.

[0008] A wheel stop is provided at the end of the monorail away from the track.

[0009] The loading trolley includes an open loading box at the top, and wheels are provided at the four lower corners of the loading box, with the wheels all mounted on the transfer rail.

[0010] A cover is attached to the upper part of the cargo box, and the cover covers the upper part of the equipment inside the cargo box.

[0024] The specific embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] like Figures 1-5 As shown in the figure, the track-type production line equipment auxiliary installation device proposed in this embodiment can be used to transport the equipment to be installed between the track and the upper platform of the track-type production line, and can also be used to transport equipment between the track and the upper platform in other situations.

[0026] The auxiliary installation device for this track-type production line includes a temporary trolley 1 and a loading trolley 2. The loading trolley 2 loads the equipment and moves onto the temporary trolley 1. The temporary trolley 1 carries the loading trolley 2 to the installation position and unloads the equipment.

[0027] Temporary trolley 1 is a transport vehicle temporarily set on track 7. It can transport equipment and materials during the installation of the production line. After the production line is installed, temporary trolley 1 is removed.

[0028] To facilitate the stable movement of the loading trolley 2 onto the temporary trolley 1, a transfer rail 3 is installed on the side of one end of the platform 8 above the track 7. The loading trolley 2 is mounted on the transfer rail 3, which is perpendicular to the track 7. An auxiliary rail 4 of the same specifications as the transfer rail 3 is installed on the temporary trolley 1. The auxiliary rail 4 is at the same height as the transfer rail 3 and parallel to it, allowing the loading trolley 2 to move from the transfer rail 3 onto the auxiliary rail 4.

[0029] After the equipment is loaded onto the loading trolley 2, the loading trolley 2 runs on the transfer rail 3 to the track 7. The auxiliary rail 4 on the temporary trolley 1 connects with the transfer rail 3, allowing the loading trolley 2 to drive onto the temporary trolley 1 and stop stably there, where the temporary trolley 1 continues the transport. The loading trolley 2 drives directly onto the temporary trolley 1 and stops there, eliminating the need for intermediate equipment transfers, resulting in stable and labor-saving equipment transport.

[0030] To facilitate the operation of the temporary trolley 1, the temporary trolley 1 is connected to the winch 5 located at the other end of the platform 8 by a steel cable. The temporary trolley 1 is pulled by the winch 5 and can be pushed back when returning to the entrance.

[0031] In one specific embodiment of the present invention, in order to stably support the loading trolley 2, the temporary trolley 1 may include a transport flatbed 11 supported by a bracket. Two axles are fixed at both ends of the bracket, and wheels 12 are provided at both ends of each axle. The wheels 12 are mounted on a track 7, and an auxiliary rail 4 is mounted on the transport flatbed 11. The transport flatbed 11 horizontally supports the auxiliary rail 4, allowing the loading trolley 2 to smoothly travel onto the temporary trolley 1 via the auxiliary rail 4 and come to a stable stop.

[0032] In one specific embodiment of the present invention, in order to ensure that the loading trolley 2 is stably parked on the temporary trolley 1, a stop block is fixed at the end of the auxiliary rail 4 away from the transfer rail 3, and a stop block 9 is inserted at the end of the auxiliary rail 4 near the transfer rail 3. The stop block 9 may include an insert rod and a block connected to the insert rod. After the loading trolley 2 drives onto the auxiliary rail 4, the insert rod is inserted into the insertion hole of the auxiliary rail 4.

[0033] The stop block 9 can be plugged into and detached on the auxiliary rail 4. When the loading trolley is moving, the stop block 9 can be pulled out of the auxiliary rail 4 without obstructing the movement. When the loading trolley 2 stops on the temporary trolley, the stop block 9 can be inserted into the auxiliary rail 4 together with the stop block to restrict the movement of the loading trolley 2 and prevent the loading trolley 2 from falling off.

[0034] In one specific embodiment of the present invention, in order to ensure the stable operation of the loading trolley 2, the transfer rail 3 may include two support frames 6, and two single rails 31 of the transfer rail 3 are respectively mounted on the two support frames 6. When the auxiliary rail 4 is directly opposite the transfer rail 3, the auxiliary rail 4 is connected to the transfer rail 3. The two support frames 6 respectively support the two single rails 31, so that the single rails 31 reach an appropriate height so as to be at the same height as the auxiliary rail 4.

[0035] In one specific embodiment of the present invention, in order to prevent the loading trolley 2 from derailing, a wheel stop 32 is provided at the end of the monorail 31 away from the track 7. When the loading trolley 2 runs to the end of the monorail 31, the wheel stop 32 can block the wheels 22 of the loading trolley 2 to prevent derailment.

[0036] In one specific embodiment of the present invention, for ease of loading, the loading trolley 2 includes an open-top loading box 21, with wheels 22 at each of the four lower corners of the loading box 21, and the wheels 22 are all mounted on the transfer rail 3. The open-top loading box 21 facilitates the placement and loading of equipment and components to be installed.

[0037] In one specific embodiment of the present invention, for stable transportation of goods, a cover is attached to the upper part of the loading container 21, and the cover covers the upper part of the equipment inside the loading container 21. The cover tightly surrounds the equipment and components to be installed, preventing the components from falling off during transportation.

[0038] In one specific embodiment of the present invention, the depth of the loading box 21 is less than 50cm. The depth of the loading box 21 does not need to be too deep, so as to facilitate the placement of the equipment and its removal from below the platform 8.

[0039] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, in order to facilitate the smooth transition of the loading trolley 2, both ends of the auxiliary rail 4 extend out of the temporary trolley 1. The length of the auxiliary rail 4 is greater than the width of the transport flat plate 11. After being fixed on the transport flat plate 11, both ends extend out of the transport flat plate 11 to connect with the transfer rail 3, which also facilitates the stable parking of the loading trolley 2.

[0040] Example 2 like Figure 6 As shown, the auxiliary installation method for track-type production line equipment provided in this embodiment uses the auxiliary installation device for track-type production line equipment described in Embodiment 1 for equipment transportation, and includes the following steps: S1: Push the temporary trolley 1 close to the transfer rail 3 and connect the auxiliary rail 4 with the transfer rail 3.

[0041] When the goods are transported, the temporary trolley 1 can be manually pushed to the entrance of platform 8, and the auxiliary rail 4 on the temporary trolley 1 can be connected to the transfer rail 3, and the loading trolley 2 can be waited for to arrive.

[0042] S2: The equipment to be installed is hoisted onto the loading trolley 2, and the loading trolley 2 travels from the transfer rail 3 to the auxiliary rail 4.

[0043] The equipment and components to be installed can be placed onto the loading trolley 2 using hoisting equipment or other means. The loading trolley 2 can then be manually pushed forward steadily on the transfer rail 3 until it moves onto the auxiliary rail 4 on the temporary trolley 1. A stop block 9 is then inserted into the auxiliary rail 4, and the loading trolley 2 is now in place.

[0044] S3: Start winch 5, pull temporary trolley 1 to the installation position of the equipment, and unload the equipment.

[0045] The temporary trolley 1 starts running, and the winch 5 is turned on to pull the temporary trolley 1 forward on the track 7 until it is pulled to the installation position. Then, the pulling is stopped, and the equipment and parts on the loading trolley 2 are unloaded.

[0046] The temporary trolley 1 is pushed back to the entrance of platform 8, the auxiliary rail 4 is aligned with the transfer rail 3, the stop block 9 is removed, and the loading trolley 2 is pushed back to the end of the transfer rail 3.

[0047] The auxiliary installation apparatus and method for track-type production line equipment according to the present invention have been described above by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications can be made to the auxiliary installation apparatus and method for track-type production line equipment proposed in the present invention without departing from the scope of the invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the contents of the appended claims.
