Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of railway vehicle equipment, specifically relating to an aerial work platform vehicle suitable for factories and mines. Background Technology
[0002] In the transportation of large-scale industrial and mining materials such as ore and mining machinery, railway transportation has become the mainstream mode of transport due to its significant advantages of high efficiency, low cost, and large carrying capacity. At the same time, the railway overhead contact system, as a core facility ensuring smooth transportation, requires regular maintenance. However, the current power modules of the work vehicles are scattered, requiring separate installation space for each module, occupying more of the vehicle's usable area and hindering the mounting of work equipment. Furthermore, the dispersed distribution necessitates point-by-point inspection for maintenance, increasing disassembly and assembly time and operational complexity. The increased demand for specialized tools also drives up maintenance costs. Therefore, improvements are necessary to address these issues. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The technical problem solved by this invention is to provide an aerial work platform vehicle suitable for factories and mines. By setting a mounting frame at the top right end of the vehicle frame and centrally installing the power pack on the mounting frame, the invention solves the problems of space occupation, inconvenient maintenance, and high maintenance costs caused by the dispersed arrangement of power packs when providing power to the working device in existing vehicles. The invention optimizes the overall structural design, improves operational safety, facilitates maintenance and troubleshooting, and reduces disassembly and assembly time and operational complexity. Furthermore, by setting guardrails on the two long sides of the vehicle frame, with both ends fixedly connected to the canopy and the mounting frame respectively, the risk of workers accidentally falling while working on the metal floor of the vehicle frame can be reduced. The fully enclosed protection at all locations effectively improves operational safety.
[0004] The technical solution adopted in this invention is as follows: an aerial work platform vehicle suitable for factories and mines, including a frame for supporting all components and a walking system located at the bottom of the frame.

The exhaust system 6-3 is connected to the exhaust port of the diesel engine 6-1, using components such as mufflers to reduce noise pollution at the work site. The cooling system 6-4 uses a radiator to dissipate the heat generated by the diesel engine 6-1 during operation, ensuring the engine operates at a suitable temperature. The flywheel end of the diesel engine 6-1 is connected to the hydraulic pump via a coupling 6-5. The hydraulic pump converts the mechanical energy of the diesel engine 6-1 into hydraulic energy to power the working device. The action of 5 provides the power source; although the cooling system 6-4, exhaust system 6-3 and intake system 6-2 in the power pack 6 are existing components installed and fixed with the diesel engine 6-1, the optimization of the specific installation position makes the structure more compact. There is no need to plan separate installation areas for each component of the power pack 6, which frees up the effective space of the iron floor of the frame 1, which can be used to carry the working device 5 or other auxiliary equipment, and is more suitable for the limited space of the factory and mine operation site and the need for compact equipment layout; the flywheel end of the diesel engine 6-1 is connected to the hydraulic pump through the coupling 6-5, which shortens the power transmission path, reduces energy loss, and ensures a stable power supply for the lifting, extension and retraction of the aerial work platform 5-1, which is suitable for the stringent requirements of the operation accuracy of the factory and mine contact network maintenance.
